This is a sobering read.
The oligarchy must be stopped, and it never will be by the current regime, or current party in power.
Remember to vote. Every election, every level of government. And vote blue.

"So Todd Blanche is appointing a lawyer formerly paid by Russian allies to discredit the Russian investigation to declassify and release a load of intelligence... in the guise of criminalizing counterintelligence investigations."
Thanks for including me. Following all!
Much more later about what might well be the most unprofessional and embarrassing opinion OLC has written in recent years (yes, worse even than the Venezuela opinion, even if the stakes aren't quite as great). For now, suffice it to flag that Chris Fonzone's analysis is a must-read.

1/ My first story as a @propublica.org climate reporter:
I discovered that the Trump appointee in charge of rewriting methane rules at the EPA was – just four years ago – an unnamed author of an oil industry response to those same rules.
His name isn't in the document itself, but…
Quien es mas macho? Definitely Khan!
Libyan warlord Khalifa Hifter is responsible for the deaths of countless innocent people. We sued on behalf of victims but case dismissed on technical not substantive grounds.
More than fitting that he hired lobbyists close to Trump. Birds of a feather.

Trump’s Justice Department has shown an unusual amount of consideration for Smirnov, a confessed criminal tied to Russian intelligence who betrayed the FBI and who perpetuated a fraud that roiled American politics.
Rumored sighting in Tallahassee: Casey DeSantis wearing a jacket with this quote on the back and First Lady of Florida on the front.
Marco Rubio is corrupt as fuck.

You’ll be seeing a lot about this memo today. I published it first (and got the story right) b/c I’ve been covering this case in depth at Law Dork — even filing a motion last week to intervene and improve public access. I knew this was an important case; my work shows it. Subscribe: www.lawdork.com
“On the wings of a snow white dove, He sends His pure sweet love, a sign from above, on the wings of a dove.”
Tender Mercies. Possibly the most understated movie of all time (IMO). And he did all his own singing. “Hey mister. Were you really Mac Sledge?” “Yes ma’am, I guess I was.”
This is an important piece. Epstein was a consummate social climber and courted academics as a way of building social clout. Brockman and “the edge” illuminate just how that worked.
Trump is threatening to block construction of a publicly owned bridge connecting Detroit and Canada, despite supporting the project in his first term.
A billionaire who privately owns a competing bridge met with Howard Lutnick just days before Trump announced his opposition.
Funny how that works.
This is as ludicrous as their belief that caravans of immigrants were showing up at the border and reporting directly to the nearest polling place to vote.
“Football is ours! It just is!”
NO TAXPAYER BAILOUTS FOR THE CRYPTO SPECULATORS AND CON ARTISTS.
If you gambled and lost, don’t ask the American people to bail you out.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
There's a lot of talk about the potential harm of all these files and revelations, with almost no consequences for the perpetrators. But I still believe that exposing these fiends may be a net plus, especially if it leads to a widespread understanding of how the worst misogynists alive killed MeToo.
