Сопротивление несправедливости.
Resistance to injustice.

Docs released tonight echo those released already. Trump's speech conveniently left out that the biggest election interference came from Russia and was designed to get him another term. This is from tonight's batch

[Sam Stein @samstein]

This is really incredible. Docs released by Trump tonight confirm RUSSIA tried to spread claims Biden was engaged in criminal activity vis-a-vis Burisma and that it advanced those narratives "with US officials" and planed a "high-profile corruption scandal... at the peak of the 2020 US presidential campaign."

He’ll say what he has to until he’s confirmed as AG, but there is no doubt he’ll do what Trump asks, no matter how illegal.

Let’s check in on Trump personal lawyer/deputy AG nominee Todd Blanche’s financial disclosure. Turns out SHEIN—the Chinese fast-fashion giant currently paying Kash Patel $1M in equity—is also his active legal client.

Blanche just testified that laws prevented the DOJ from releasing the Epstein files. That's false, and a federal judge told him that last year.

"The Government is the logical party to make comprehensive disclosure to the public of the Epstein Files."

Lindsey Graham was one of the main subjects of a @TheAtlantic cover story I wrote in 2020, on why people collaborate with regimes they know are immoral. Here's a gift link:

Greenland Institute of Natural Resources
Suspends New Cooperation with the United States

The Natural Resources Institute has decided to halt all new collaborations and travel involving the United States. Instead, it is shifting its focus toward cooperation within the Kingdom of Denmark and with European countries.

The Director of the Natural Resources Institute, Josephine Nymand, says the institute will no longer enter into new partnerships with the United States.
She previously served as Chair of the Research Council, where she worked to strengthen scientific cooperation with Greenland's western neighbor.
Since then, the situation has changed significantly—particularly after January, when the United States spent an extended period refusing to rule out taking over the country by military force.

"We have collaborations that were established before all of this happened. We will continue those because they involve researchers we have worked with for many years and whom we trust," says Josephine Nymand.
"—However, we are not entering into new agreements or projects with U.S. partners whom we do not already know."

In recent weeks, KNR has reported that the alleged influence agent Tom Dans has become Chairman of the U.S. Arctic Research Commission.
This has prompted warnings from two prominent research figures: U.S. affairs expert Rasmus Sinding Søndergaard from the Danish Institute for International Studies, and Marianne Holmer, Chair of Denmark's Research Committee and a member of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters.

Josephine Nymand explains that only a few months ago, Tom Dans attended a conference in Aarhus where the Natural Resources Institute was also present.
She says the institute was aware of his whereabouts throughout the event so that its representatives could avoid interacting with him.
Break with the United States
It is not only new research partnerships that have been suspended. The Natural Resources Institute has also halted all travel to the United States.

"We have instructed our staff and researchers that, as a general rule, they should not travel to the United States for conferences, meetings, research, or similar activities."

According to Josephine Nymand, there are several reasons why cooperation with the United States is no longer considered appropriate.
One reason, she explains, is that the Trump administration has censored certain research because it contained terminology that did not align with its views on diversity.

"Riddle me this: when Obama ran intelligence, the election was secure and Donald Trump won in 2016.

When Biden ran the government and the intelligence, the election was secure and Trump ran in 2024.

But when Donald Trump and all of his boobs were running US national security, it got all effed up. Is that the theory?"

@samstein @PressHerald We never had deaths like this under anyone but Trump.
This is GOP policy now.

‼️ MAINE ICE SHOOTING: NEW VIDEO shows ICE Agents dragging lifeless body of the driver onto the street and handcuffing him…

Just in case he tries to flee while dead.

[Sam Stein @samstein]

@PressHerald Rep. Chellie Pingree tells reporters that ICE agents weren't wearing body cameras during the shooting in Maine this morning.

They also weren't wearing cameras during the shooting of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo despite millions in $ to outfit them with cameras.

[Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson]

You voted to send ICE to kill your constituents.

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

@pugnacious_polk That's why, as the judge found, Trump could not sue himself.

@KatieMiller Did your staff write this?

[Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson]

I see the "Fuck Your Feelings" crowd is out policing civility this morning.

Remember when Lindsay blasted Trump for mocking Robert Mueller's death? Or Colin Powell's? Or John McCain's?

Odd...me either.

[Warren @swd2]

The Lindsey Graham turning point was back in 2016. Trump made fun of John McCain's POW status saying he "liked soldiers who didn't get captured." Lindsey called him a jackass for saying that and Trump responded by giving out Graham's cell phone number to everyone in the audience. Rather than fight back and continue sticking up for his friend, Lindsey caved and went full MAGA never to recover his soul or his spine.
