Found the specific reference to Dmitry Firtash paying Joe diGenova & his wife, Victoria Toensing, for access to AG Bill Barr. Firtash himself told the NYT he paid them $1.2M for their services. Gift link:

Inside Trump’s Effort to “Take Over” the Midterm Elections When Trump tried to overturn the 2020 election, the institutional guardrails of American democracy held. But if faced with the same tests today, those barriers — and people who held the line — would l...

An examination by ProPublica shows how thoroughly and expansively the Trump administration has overhauled the federal government into what some fear is a vehicle for making sure elections go his way.

DJT’s words don’t matter to the Pope.

Neither do Vance’s.

Really.

Stop trying to create a debate—whoever you are who is doing this.

There’s no debate.
No quarrel.
Just some peeved Americans spouting off at someone who lives and works on another plain from them.

I really feel like if you didn't want the TV preachers of the 80s, you don't know how much of it all was an absolute con. Paula grifted $150 million off her first church and went bankrupt with $20ish million in debt. AND THEN SHE FAILED UP!

Franklin Graham Defends Trump's Jesus Post. Again. The pattern is clear: when Trump crosses a theological line, a familiar roster of pastors arrives to explain why it isn't really a line.

Franklin Graham today: the Pope should thank Trump.
Let that sit for a second.

The Humiliation Is the Point Humiliating the MAGA faithful only binds them more tightly to Trump

Don’t expect a wholesale collapse in Trump’s support. Some will leave, others have tied their conscience to his success. Those will double down, again and again. My new piece explores how humiliating the MAGA faithful only binds them more tightly to Trump.

Jared Kushner’s Mysterious Role in the Trump Administration Is the president’s son-in-law carrying out the public’s business or pursuing his own private interests?

Jared Kushner’s role is no different than Steve Witkoff’s.

So why is he being held to a different ethics standard than someone who has the same job?

Notice that Trump is calling a peace deal with Iran a "transaction," which leads me to emphasize again that Jared and Witkoff have no business being in the thick of things.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is preparing banks to collect citizenship data Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says the Trump administration expects banks to comply in collecting citizenship information from customers.

Undocumented immigrants contribute $97 billion yearly in federal, state, and local taxes. They paid $25.7 billion in Social Security taxes, $6.4 billion in Medicare taxes, and $1.8 billion in unemployment insurance taxes in 2022.

Bessent is galactically stupid.

It's no coincidence that the first case in which Roberts exercised these unprecedented "shadow docket" powers involved climate change policy. Please always remember that his efforts to damage the planet should be as much a part of his legacy as his attacks on democracy.
