Breaking: In DOJ Paperwork Snafu, James Comey May Never Have Been Properly Indicted
Just out of court, where judge established that second operative two-count indictment of Comey was never presented to or voted on by the grand jury.
Judge wanted immediate additional briefing on that issue.

the president has destroyed the east wing of the white house without so much as a word of input from anyone else to build a royal ballroom paid for with bribes
NEW: After The Washington Post reported Monday on the demolition of the "East Wing facade," a new picture obtained by Law Dork that was taken on Tuesday shows that a substantial portion of the entirety of the East Wing has been demolished.

I just learned Halligan was born in Portland and was just about to lose it and then read that she was raised in Colorado and things started to make sense again… about her at least.

Heard Colin speak recently about the public health reverberations of the concept underlying his recent work and it was pretty mind-blowing.

Peter Welch is about as low-key as a Democrat gets but damn if he didn’t set off Pamela Jo.
Vermont Senator Peter Welch asks why the attorney general of the United States has zero apparent interest in figuring out what happened to the $50,000 undercover FBI agents gave border czar Tom Homan.
She... doesn't take it well.

I don't think I've seen a more relentlessly dishonest campaign than Yes on 1. It started with trickery that enabled them to get the anti-absentee ballot referendum qualified. They want voters to be misinformed about it and our election system. #mepolitics

Misinformation in Maine’s Voter Suppression Referendum Began with a Deceptive Title
Petition tactics hid absentee ballot limits. Question 1 proponents then used Newburgh ballots to mislead further.

The guy that wrote the “Joe Biden was at death’s door and everyone knew” book?
Jake Tapper did a whole interview with Trump by text message? Which means he can't actually confirm it was him. And now everyone's asking even more than before very reasonable questions about the wannabe dictator's health.

One of these rich dudes invested in a food company with all proceeds going to kids in need. The other started Sundance Institute, boosting the lives of countless artists. Hey modern rich dudes, don't be a typical greedy AI crypto-prick, be like these two.

The fact that Country House was the single that Blur used as their big move in the showdown with Oasis and it went to 1 always tickles me. It’s not even in their top 25 best songs.
Produced by Stephen Street, ‘The Great Escape’ spawned four Top 10 hits in the UK, with “Country House” being the band’s first single to reach #1 (famously beating Oasis’ “Roll With It”).

People confront Trump at a DC restaurant. He smiles at the camera as they chant “Free DC, free Palestine, Trump is the Hitler of our time.”
Trump’s masked agents have snatched residents & he’s unconditionally backed Israel’s genocide of Gaza.
