D.C. Court of Appeals Board on Professional Responsibility recommends Jeffrey Clark be DISBARRED over his conduct in the aftermath of the 2020 election.
The truth here is so ever relevant, is so simple and profound. I think I might pop it into my next book. Sharing yet again:
I remember when this happened.
Photos from the railway station in Salsk, Rostov region, show the aftermath of yesterday’s Ukrainian drone strike. Russian crews are rushing to repair the damaged line, highlighting its strategic importance.
1/ Aeroflot has come in for ridicule after it was reported that pro-Ukrainian hackers found its CEO had not changed his password for three years. However, it's been reported that password management was the responsibility of a specialist FSB unit, which is now being blamed. ⬇️
Ukraine’s president has confirmed the country will have its own ballistic missiles. “We are very close to this,” said Defense Minister Shmyhal, noting that’s all he can share publicly at this time.
Who could have possibly forseen this: Joe Rogan calls Trump’s mass deportations “scary” and “fucking crazy”

This Labor Day might well be the largest we’ve seen yet. In Chicago, labor and community leaders from 35 states are uniting to take on Trump’s anti-worker agenda, with plans for 2,000 rallies on Sep 1. New from Maria Peralta.
Massive celebrations erupted across Scotland on Wednesday to celebrate what Scots called “the glorious departure of Donald Trump.”
1/ Even as Russian troops struggle for lack of vehicles, forcing them to rely on donations and home-made contraptions, Russia's vehicle manufacturers have cut back production due to economic difficulties. Russian warbloggers can't understand why they're not helping the army. ⬇️
India’s state-owned companies have stopped buying Russian oil following Trump’s harsh tariffs. Some private firms continue purchases, but likely not for long. India is the world’s third-largest oil importer and the top buyer of Russian seaborne oil. www.reuters.com/business/ene...
His name was Matviy, and he was only 6 years old. Russia killed him last night. The boy was a karate student, dreamed of winning competitions and surpassing his older brother. Russia brutally killed him in his own home in Kyiv as he slept.
High risk, high reward strategy for the Republicans here. Would pick up 5ish seats under 2026 conditions, but that requires Republicans winning nearly 55% statewide. Under 2018 conditions, they could break even or lose a couple seats. A lot of this comes down to how Latinos vote in 26 and beyond

Everybody Hates Trump Now Six months after Trump bragged about a “historic” realignment, voters from across the political spectrum have soured on the president.

Just Do It!
🇺🇸 USAID just secured $510M to keep 14,000 Ukrainian farms alive in a war zone. Seeds, routes, revenue—proof of purpose. So remind me again: why exactly did we let the clowns gut it? We didn’t defund waste. We defunded the part of America that still worked.

States should resist even minor intrusions into their elections by the executive branch of the federal government. They should contest every effort by this administration to encroach on their right to administer elections via executive order, informal request or any generic claim under Article II.

Bove is genuinely still on the hook for possible criminal contempt charges. Which, if the DC Circuit ever gets off its ass and does something about its "administrative" stay (since APRIL), may require him to testify under oath, despite being a judge. Unprecedented situation.

🇺🇸 “I’ll announce the 10–12 day deadline today or tomorrow—no point waiting if you already know the answers. It’ll mean sanctions, maybe secondary tariffs. I don’t want to do this to Russia.

Perfectly said. I'm far more worried about the Project 2025 cabal than Donny Liddle Hands. They are the fully intelligent and intentional prosecutors of this uncivil war on We The People. Thiel, Leo, Koch et all, with their acolytes & allies, are destroying our economy and democracy to control all.
Think the Heritage Foundation is just policy? Watch this. Ask: is he right, or is he wrong? And if he’s right—will democracy win this war? Will Americans fight for it, or fold in comfort? If nothing else, repost it. Someone else might learn. Someone else might show up. We rise or we fold.
