"If a Hatch Act violation falls in the forest and no one’s around to hear it, does it still count?"

I will steal this wherever possible. Great line. And great zen koan.

Yes, if an Earth First activist was perched on it and screamed as its fell.

MAGA won't be happy until the Courts are either silenced...or prevented from ruling against Chump. If Chump doesn't like you...you get fired and forget about the back pay if rehired. Grijalva still can't get confirmed/sworn in. Wonder why? CBS News is on a rabbit -hole power grab. Guess the war in Gaza will continue. We have to ramp up our game. This shizzle has to stop. Otherwise, Democracy will be gone in a little over a year. Think mid-terms.

Thank you for the update on Yvonne Wingett Sanchez moving to the Atlantic (would be interested to know why the move, if not for the obvious!). Subscribed to their newsletter for now..

Former Atlantic Intern (technically an associated publication) here.

The Atlantic is incredible publication that has a rich history of incredible, award winning long-form journalism.

I think this is a loss for the Washington Post, but I am excited for her. She is going to do great things.

How dumb can the Flagstaff city council be (5 years ago) along with an attorney who should lose his license for that advice? Schweikert barely won his races in CD 1. I live here and he’s so lame. His newsletters are a yawn and his babbling on to an empty chamber is really a little embarrassing. Lot of graphs. It’s just to confuse. Zero charisma. Will be a great race to watch. Sheriffs who made those women take off their hijabs should be fired. My God, what were they thinking? Finally, my last vent, I give to Planned Parenthood and I’m proud of it. So what’s with the anti-abortion chickens. Stand up for your beliefs, “Oh they’ll get doxxed”. That’s an excuse Republican use for keeping dark money. Stats show that 2/3 of civil unrest/violence is done by right wing militias. These are stats since 1960’s and 1970’s to date. Think Viet Nam, Oklahoma City, Charlottesville, George Floyd, January 6. Have a great day.
