Those “people-movers” that make #IAD such an international embarrassment lost one of their own over here at #PHL Philadelphia. #peoplemover #mobilelounge Image
Hello Burlington, VT. ImageImage
Quick jaunt to the smallest state capital in the country. #Montpelier is quite the charmer. ImageImageImage
The local bookstore in #Montpelier is @BearPondBooks. @esaagar and @krystalball get top billing here. ImageImageImage
Meanwhile, my quixotic quest to visit all state capitals, and indeed Capitols, continues. Here’s the Vermont State House: instagram.com/p/B9PWvzDhQkx/… Image
Inside the Vermont State House, among other attractions, is Lincoln in what appears to be a broom closet. Image
And then there’s this magnificent portrait of former Governor Howard Dean: Image
A walk around #Burlington took me to two campaign headquarters. The @BernieSanders office is getting ready for his Super Tuesday rally. The @MikeBloomberg office was empty bar one man and a dog. ImageImage
This is where we expect @BernieSanders to cast his Super Tuesday vote in #Burlington, Vermont. ImageImage
Happy Super Tuesday from #Burlington, Vermont.

This might come as a surprise on the diplomatic front: #Luxembourg Prime Minister @Xavier_Bettel (close friend of Macron’s) just spoke to Putin.
Putin is not excluding a meeting with Zelensky. From the #Luxembourg PM’s spokesperson after the call:

“Putin says negotiations need to advance further before a meeting with Zelensky is possible. Putin says they are not there yet, without however excluding this path entirely."
More from the Luxembourg PM @Xavier_Bettel’s office:

“European leaders wanted to make sure Putin would continue talking with them. PM Bettel offered to help out and was encouraged to talk to Putin."

Bettel is a close friend of Emmanuel Macron and Charles Michel.

BREAKING: shots appear to have been fired at George Floyd Square. Quiet now. People still sheltering in place.
We heard a few dozens sounds of what appear to have been shots fired on this block. Everyone sheltered in place. Lots of running. No apparent need for medics. Will update.
From our vantage point we see one broken window, apparently from one of the shots fired. Consensus among reporters here at George Floyd Square was that we heard anywhere between a dozen and two dozen shots fired.

Court is back in session in the Derek Chauvin trial. The former Minneapolis police officer is in the courtroom, wearing a grey suit and a black mask. Jury selection still set to begin at 9 AM CT.
Jury selection could still be delayed if a higher court decision is made on whether a third degree murder charge will be reinstated. For now, things proceed as set out by the district judge yesterday.
Until 9 AM CT motions can be discussed by attorneys, as is the case right now.
