@gretchemaben Oh, I sure hope you turn the corner soon! Hang in there!

Mom left this AM, I’m stuck in the sling, I have two sick dogs, and I have a wicked cold. So, yes, these brownies are dinner and I will FIGHT YOU.

Americans need to know which officials traded stocks before Trump posted about Iran last night.

NEWS: @LeaderJohnThune told @POTUS that Senate Republicans would finally join Senate Democrats to support funding all of DHS except ICE. Donald Trump said no. This shutdown is on him alone.

The document Goldman is holding was supposed to stay hidden. It's an FBI interview summary. The DOJ redacted it. Goldman got the unredacted version. He read it into the congressional record.

SCOOP: DOJ has waived policy requiring newly hired prosecutors to have least a year (more often 3 years) experience practicing law. As DOJ struggles to replace mass departures w/ qualified applicants, this move allows hiring straight out of law school. news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/do…

@gretchemaben Oh, I sure hope the shoulder surgery goes well.

Mom is visiting me to help because I having shoulder surgery tomorrow. #MilesMischief doesn’t believe in personal space… 🤣

@MikeTFox5 Many thanks for your analysis. We’re out of the country and trying to honestly advise our kids back home.

Afternoon update from SPC does not shift much, leaves the DC area in a MODERATE RISK threat zone for severe weather on Monday. As noted by SPC forecaster in their discussion… “Supercells producing tornadoes appear most likely ahead of the cold front from SC into NC and southern VA. Models vary with degree of instability, but strong tornadoes do appear possible with effective SRH of at least 300-400 m2/s2. Fast storm motions over 50 kt suggest a long tracked tornado will be possible.” -> This means that conditions are most favorable for the strongest and longest lived tornadoes (EF-2+ potential) southeast of the DC area. “Meanwhile, a robust line of storms will develop as the cold front pushes east, stretching from the Carolinas to southern NY. With a moist air mass and large-scale support, this line is expected to produce particularly damaging winds, along with QLCS tornadoes across the remainder of SC/NC, VA, MD, and much of southern PA. This will likely peak during the late afternoon hours.” -> This essentially notes that their biggest concern for the immediate DC area is this squall line with damaging wind potential that will come through during the later afternoon hours. “QLCS Tornadoes” are those typically quick spin-ups embedded within the squall line itself. That’s what they’re referring to there. Will continue to update. Will do a live over in the FB page later tonight to keep folks updated.

In their latest discussion, SPC is considering upgrading our region to a level 4 of 5 MODERATE RISK for severe weather on Monday. We have only had a handful of these issued for our region as far back as records go. Really speaks to the magnitude of how concerned they are about wind damage potential here Monday.

Dear @BrendanCarrFCC: If you implement your flagrantly anti First Amendment actions, you will be sued and you will lose. And legal discovery will be awesome. Because the American people can then find out what the Administration keeps hiding. Take your fascist shit and shove it.

@WeatherJackie “Grimace purple.” Outstanding!

I’ve never seen that shade of Grimace purple on the 24-hour temperature change map before 🤯👀😲

@capitalweather Car only this morning (6:30 am) in Kensington near Mormon Temple.

Folks north and west of DC, let us know if you have any iciness on your steps, sidewalks, side streets? Or just on the car?

Dear friends: Tomorrow is my mother's Funeral Mass, and I'm asking prayers for it to be a prayerful liturgy, and also for decent weather and all the logistics going well. Please pray for all of us, especially my mother's eternal rest.
