PERSONAL UPDATE: My cat - Bruce Willis - is still missing. First week of May, your donations for a reward will all be refunded. Im exceedingly sad and I miss my boy, but I don’t think he’s coming home. I’d like to update you on what I’ve done in the meantime. 1/
While out looking for Bruce (which had to be funny - me walking the streets shouting BRUCE WILLIS at the top of my lungs and shaking a can of cat treats), I noticed I was being followed by a MASSIVE, hungry Tom Cat who still had his troublepuffs™️2/
I decided rescue him. I called all the neighbors to make sure he was a stray, picked him up, got him neutered, vaccinated, & groomed (he was covered in flea dirt), and brought him home. We got along FAMOUSLY. I named him Wilford (because he clearly resembles Wilford Brimley.) 3/
Meanwhile, I was checking Craigslist for lost and found (Bruce) tuxedo cats. I ran into these two - a brother and sister bonded pair who needed a home. So I took them in. I’ve named them Stache (the sister) and Stove (the brother. Named after stove from the movie Bridesmaids.) 4/
But Wilford was NOT good with other cats. So rehomed Wilford with a wonderful single mom and her non-binary teen (who reeeeally wanted a pet), and now they’re living happily ever after. 5/
And then finally, after four months of searching for Bruce Willis, I decided it was time to adopt a kitten, so I’ve rescued this little guy - a Ragdoll - who I’ve taken to calling Senator Potat. He’s 9 weeks old. He plays fetch, cuddles, and purrs like a tractor trailer. 6/
Now that I’ve grieved the loss of Bruce - shortly after losing my other boy Boobah to lymphoma - I’m ready to start sharing photos of the new babies as part of #Caturday. Thank you again for all your help, kind words, and support. I love you, Bruce - wherever you are. END/

BREAKING: ORDER from the 2nd circuit in E Jean Carroll I. This is the case where they’re trying to decide whether Donald was acting within his role as president when he defamed E Jean during that press conference. I’ll break this down in layman’s terms. 1/
A long time ago, Barr’ DOJ said “you can’t sue him for shit he says when he’s president, so we are filing to substitute ourselves in for Donald (the Westfall Act says we can) because he was just doing president stuff when he defamed E Jean.” 2/
Judge Kaplan DENIED that DoJ motion to substitute (which would effectively end the case, by the way.) DoJ APPEALED to the 2nd circuit court of appeals. 2nd circuit VACATED judge Kaplan’s ruling and sent the question over to the DC Circuit where it sat for a LONG time. 3/
THREAD :: The process to criminally refer Clarence Thomas to the Attorney General :: Many have asked about the process to refer Thomas to the DoJ for a criminal review or civil suit. The first step is to refer the justice to the Judicial Conference. 1/
The Judicial Conference of the United States is the national policymaking body for the federal courts. They can investigate the financial disclosures and would be the body to make a referral to the DoJ. It's comprised of the chief circuit judges and is chaired by John Roberts. 2/
I took the time to break down who appointed the judges on the panel.
David J. Barron - Obama
Debra Livingston - GW Bush
Michael Chagaras - GW Bush
Roger Gregory - GW Bush
Priscilla Richman - GW Bush
Jeffrey Sutton - GW Bush
Diane Sykes - GW Bush
Lavenski Smith - GW Bush 3/
BREAKING: HOLY SHIRTBALLS: Fulton County DA Fani Willis has filed a motion to remove the attorney representing 10 of the Georgia fraudulent electors. The attorney’s name is Kimberly Debrow - a former assistant DA, firm partner, and law professor in Georgia. 1/
According to the filing, the court ORDERED Debrow to offer her clients immunity, and Debrow’s associate told the court they had. But recent interviews indicate they NEVER presented that offer to her clients! THAT’S REALLY BAD. 2/
Not only did they NOT present the offer, they LIED to the court about it. AND, it appears as though some of her fraudulent elector clients are saying that another one of her clients committed crimes that they were not party to. That’s also REALLY BAD. 3/

THREAD: THE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION INTO TRUMP'S FRAUDULENT FUNDRAISING: Just a quick thread for those who still believe Jack Smith is doing stuff Merrick Garland didn't have the "guts" to do. 1/
This week, some reporting from the Washington Post said that Jack Smith sent out subpoenas in March to get witness testimony about Trump's alleged fraudulent fundraising. Here's the recent story: 2/ washingtonpost.com/nation/2023/04…
I just want to point out that the FIRST round of subpoenas was reported LAST SEPTEMBER - well before Garland appointed Jack Smith. Here's that reporting from ABC: 3/ abcnews.go.com/US/federal-gra…
NEW: Confirmation of what Andy McCabe and I spoke about in December: Jack Smith broadens his probe into potential wire fraud by defrauding donors. Here's the NEW reporting: 1/ washingtonpost.com/nation/2023/04…
Here's the reporting from @CNN @kpolantz we relied on to discuss this last December: 2/ cnn.com/2022/12/11/pol…
