If this guy doesn’t have the confidence in the FAA or the airport that’s under his control, then he shouldn’t be employed anymore.
- Reposted by Janet and Iris (the pup)Remember that several people asked Pam Bondi during confirmation SPECIFICALLY what she would do on matters pertaining to Qatar (which she did not disclose) or GEO (pertinent to the Baraka arrest). She said she'd consult top career lawyer at DOJ abt recusal. Then she fired that lawyer.

- Reposted by Janet and Iris (the pup)"This is naked corruption on a massive scale. But at least the golf stuff is covered by a tiny fig leaf, ostensibly separating the Trump Org and the Oval Office. Now, less than four months into his second term, Trump is ripping the bandaid off and discarding all pretense." -- @lizdye.bsky.social

- Reposted by Janet and Iris (the pup)Why are ICE agents masked to begin with? Our law enforcement officers shouldn’t be anonymous. Ever.
- Reposted by Janet and Iris (the pup)Bribery is an impeachable offense. Trump isn’t just breaking norms, he’s selling U.S. influence to the highest bidder.

- Reposted by Janet and Iris (the pup)OK, this is wild. In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them. It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*. What the HELL? 1/
- Reposted by Janet and Iris (the pup)Odd that those criticizing @gtconway.bsky.social for endorsing Diane Seltzer because he isn't a member of the DC Bar, ignore the fact that I have as well and I am a member. Vote Diane Seltzer for DC Bar president.
