.@SenGillibrand: “The violent actions described by multiple women in this story are abhorrent. Based on this extensive and serious reporting, I do not believe that Eric Schneiderman should continue to serve as Attorney General…”

— Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) May 8, 2018

It took less than four hours from the New Yorker story for Schneiderman to resign. Wow.

Apparently, NY Attorney General, Eric Schneiderman thinks he’s Christian Grey.

There are all kinds of malefactors out there on all sides, but I’m confident Schneiderman is going to be run out of office while Republicans continue to uniformly stand behind Trump *who has been caught on tape confessing* to routinely sexually assaulting women.

The Eric Schneiderman story is yet more confirmation of Czeslaw Milosz's idea of "Ketman": the man who rails the loudest against a sinner is often an even bigger sinner himself.

I will be announcing my decision on the Iran Deal tomorrow from the White House at 2:00pm.

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 7, 2018

Breaking: “It’s pretty obvious” Trump will exit #Iran nuclear deal, says senior European diplomat, citing a “difference of opinion” with Trump admin “that cannot be denied”, cites “various consequences..we have yet to fully understand and spell out”.

— Jim Sciutto (@jimsciutto) May 7, 2018

Even if Trump’s announcement on the Iran deal is a foregone conclusion, he has yet to a) say how he proposes to contain Iran’s weapons program or b) say why he’s leaving a deal his own administration acknowledges Iran is respecting.

— Andrew Beatty (@AndrewBeatty) May 7, 2018

Tomorrow we expect to hear from the Trump administration why they plan to scrap the Iran deal.

Over recent months, we've also heard from the Trump administration about the benefits of the deal–namely how it prevents Iran from ever acquiring a nuclear weapon. pic.twitter.com/iYQiGBNctT

— Ned Price (@nedprice) May 7, 2018

it's a bit unfathomable to me how the vast majority of US media coverage of Trump's upcoming Iran nuclear deal decision is completely devoid of mentioning potential impact in the Middle East itself

— Elizabeth Dickinson (@dickinsonbeth) May 7, 2018

If Trump scraps Iran nuclear deal, then how can he expect to persuade North Korea to have faith in American guarantees and scrap its nuclear weapons?

— Tom London (@TomLondon6) May 7, 2018

The Trump administration doesn't usually think this strategically, but if they did … it looks as if they are preparing a cave-in to North Korea to gain running room for a major confrontation with Iran

When you are Britain's Foreign Secretary and have to go onto #FoxandFriends to try to lobby Donald Trump to not start World War 3, I think it's safe to say the "special relationship" is dead. https://t.co/LHDU8Pg2uO

“We’ve made a deal this weekend: [Trump] stays focused on North Korea, Iran and China, and we stay focused on the [Mueller] case and we’ll bother him when we have to,” Giuliani told @washingtonpost Robert Costa [5/16/18] after his meeting with Trump.

Operatives from the Israeli intelligence firm Black Cube used false identities to track & dig up dirt—even sexual blackmail material—on Obama officials behind the Iran deal. Pages of docs & sources close to the effort show how, in my latest for @newyorker: https://t.co/ICE5jKwCmm
