Look who’s back
Toobin explains his infamous Zoom call: "I didn’t think I was on the call. I didn’t think other people could see me … I thought that I had turned off the Zoom call. Now, that’s not a defense. This was deeply moronic and indefensible. But I mean, that is part of the story."
Cont’d: "I have spent the seven subsequent months, miserable months in my life, I can certainly confess, trying to be a better person. I mean, in therapy, trying to do some public service, working in a food bank, which I certainly am going to continue to do"
Toobin on being fired from The New Yorker: "I thought this punishment was excessive"

@JoeNBC "There’s a reason they were cleared with the urgency that they were cleared w/ ... They could have actually scheduled repairs on scaffolding at the same time, before knowing, of course, that Donald Trump, who was humiliated after news broke that he scrambled down to the bunker "

NYT/MSNBC’s @MaraGay: In Long Island last weekend, I saw “dozens of American flags,” which was “just disturbing”
@MaraGay "I was on Long Island this weekend ... and I was really disturbed. I saw, you know, dozens & dozens of pickup trucks w/ expletives against Joe Biden ... Trump flags, and in some cases, just dozens of American flags, which is also just disturbing"

Fauci refuses to go after China for destroying evidence & refusing to cooperate with investigators; says the U.S. shouldn’t be “accusatory” as it will make them “pull back more”
Morning Joe Q’s to Fauci:

— Did you think lab leak theory was a “conspiracy theory”?
— What do you think now about the lab-leak theory?

This will be at least the 4th time the Biden Admin’s @DHSgov has predicted "white supremacists" are planning violent attacks.

Thus far they’re 0-3
