Here’s what @emilyaheil wrote in the original @WashingtonPost Food article re chicken nuggets at Chick-fil-A: “This fast-growing chain offers a distinct style of chicken: The breading is lighter than many competitors’ and the bird itself is juicy and flavorful. A persistent rumor credits the latter to a pickle brine, but a peek at the ingredient list — which doesn’t include vinegar — indicates that’s probably just the stuff of legend. Instead, you can probably chalk it up to that sugar, salt and MSG. “Whatever alchemy the chicken wizards are getting up to, the result was one irresistible nugget — that is, if you can stomach the brand’s history of donations to anti-LGBTQ+ groups and its CEO’s opposition to same-sex marriage...”

DC press corps on @WashingtonWeek in high dudgeon over @ElonMusk and USAID. NPR’s @asmamk: “There’s something I think very strange at this moment of seeing the world’s richest man really take a hatchet that will essentially take people who are already in the depths of poverty and increase starvation rates.” @AnneApplebaum: “It’s also a test case of cruelty. Are Americans willing to accept a high level of cruelty and death just on the President’s whim, on Elon Musk’s whim?”

At very end of unedited @60Minutes video posted today by CBS, @BillWhitakerCBS called Harris’ economic policy proposals “logical.” When cameraman asked to get an over the shoulder shot of Whitaker: “Well we were talking about how you’re gonna pay for it and I mean I truly do mean it, I, you know, your plans are logical, make logical sense. The way Washington works is not logical....” Rundown by @NickFondacaro of CBS’s duplicity:

Sad. Democrats have lost CNN. The entire CNN panel snickers at Democrats screaming about @ElonMusk. They even lost anchor Abby Phillip: “Democrats agree that Musk is a problem, but listen to them today and they have a pinata in search of a stick.”

NBC’s @kwelkernbc fretted to @SenMarkKelly about the Laken Riley Act: “You voted in support of this bill. I had an opportunity to interview your colleague Senator Adam Schiff who opposed it. He told me last week this bill is so broad the U.S. quote, ‘would be able to deport dreamers for taking a tube of tooth paste.’ Can you guarantee this law won't be applied in a way that’s overly broad?” #MTP

On MSNBC’s #11thHour, @JohnFugelsang says Democrats should “start introducing impeachment articles every week....I think Democrats should start having a different guy come out every week and introduce new articles of impeachment, just to inspire people and show them that we’re doing something and let the record show for history we are fighting against this.”
