First in nation affordable communal living space for LGBTQ+ seniors opens in DC
Did you know that in #DC there's a 24 hour vigil on the National Mall for #Medicaid? And that the national Dems have been taking part?
Boy, you wouldn't from corporate media coverage.
Millions of lives are at stake. We should be seeing the kind of mass hysteria in every outlet that we got for "Joe Biden Is Old But Trump Is Not."

#Trump is strongly considering installing #FoxNews host & fmr prosecutor #JeaninePirro as interim #USattorney for #DC….
The potential selection comes as Trump told reporters in the Oval Office Thurs that #EdMartin, who is currently serving as DC's interim top prosecutor, would not be taking the position permanently after losing support among top #Republicans in the #Senate.

Addressing reporters, #Trump praised #EdMartin & expressed disappointment at the #Senate’s refusal to advance his nomination.
“I just want to say Ed is unbelievable. And hopefully we can bring him in too, whether it’s #DOJ or whatever, in some capacity,” Trump said in response to questions after a White House announcement on a trade agreement w/the UK. “We have somebody else that we’ll be announcing over the next 2 days who’s going to be great.”
For once, the #IdiotInChief listens to the editorial board of the WSJ:
#Trump said Thurs that he will replace interim #USattorney #EdMartin, his embattled nominee to serve as the top prosecutor for #DC, after 15 tumultuous weeks in office marked by his #threats to investigate Trump’s perceived enemies & firings & demotions of career prosecutors who investigated Trump & the #Jan6 insurrection.
#Boasberg: you've essentially admitted their rights were violated. if they're in constructive custody, what's the remedy?
#DOJ: ...
Boasberg: now we've got #judges in #SDNY, #SDTex, #DColo, plus a circuit judge in #DC all finding that invasion & predatory incursion have #military connotations so proclamation did not properly invoke #AEA. agree that's where things stand?
DOJ: yes.
Boasberg: #SCOTUS never said AEA was properly invoked.
Good news!
Key #GOP Senator Thomas Tillis won't support Ed Martin to be #DC's US Attorney & its top prosecutor.
He specifically cited #Jan6 as his reason.
The bad news is he said he'd prolly vote to confirm Martin in any other district.

#Republican Sen #ThomTillis (NC) said Tues he has told the #Trump WH he will oppose #EdMartin’s nomination to be the #USattorney for #DC, a potentially fatal blow to his already dicey confirmation chances.
Tillis spoke to reporters after meeting w/Martin on Monday night. Tillis, who is seeking reelection next year, previously signaled he had concerns w/Martin because of his comments related to the #Jan6 #insurrection & his work defending those who took part.

Just paid my first #DC ticket for right on red. 
Via Jen Bendery:
ICE raids are coming to #DC this week.
ICE is planning "targeted raids on Tuesday and Wednesday," he reports, and will go after restaurant workers -- esp those who work at Subway franchises and delivery workers using scooters, like DoorDash employees.
A coalition of 19 #states & #DC sued the #Trump admin in an effort to block its slashing of #HHS, arguing that the significant staff reductions & cuts to #PublicHealth grants amounted to an “#unconstitutional & illegal dismantling” of the agency.
The suit comes on the heels of several similar cases seeking to block the termination of billions of dollars in #grants awarded by federal health agencies in support of public health #research & state #health programs.
