The judge threw out the criminal indictment of Jim Comey, ruling that Trump-installed Lindsey Halligan was illegally appointed and had no lawful authority to bring the case. The court found her actions violated federal law, and the Constitution’s Appointments Clause.

She got no points for the hair.

Your steak ain't no hipper than my pork chop
Your cadillac ain't no hipper than my bus stop
Your champagne ain't no hipper than my soda pop
Looka here I'm ready to take care of business
Have no fear I'm already here
I'll tell you now
I'm Qualified

when you call my name
it's like a little prayer
down on my knees
i'm wanna take you there
🎶
In the midnight hour
I can feel your power
just like a prayer
you know I'll take you there

Today would have been Dr. John's 84th birthday, which was originally observed a day later and a year earlier - as wonderfully mysterious and chaotic as everything about him.

All your Northern Lights photos are gorgeous! Tried to squint and see something in Louisiana, but it's just yard.

"More important how's the floor?" SNL did the thing where the president stood there like a zombie while yet more people fainted in the White House.

Sidenote, there's no record of what he's done with all the artifacts in the East Wing. We'll never know what was taken out pre-demolition since he promised there would be no demolition. And we know how he looks after our property.

"It won't interfere with the current building it'll be near it but not touching it and pays total respect to the existing building which I'm the biggest fan of it's my favorite it's my favorite place I love it but they've wanted it." DJT pre East Wing demolition.

This is his "near but not touching"

The East Wing was where Eleanor Roosevelt welcomed all visitors to the White House.

That must have kept this administration up nights until they could knock it down. To build a ballroom we can't afford, during a shutdown, for a president who just posted himself dropping shit on the country.
