Trump claims 2020 election 'rigged' at least 107 times in six months - https://t.co/OhTjwAumU7

この18億ドルは、トランプ氏がIRS（米内国歳入庁）に対して起こしていた訴訟の和解金である。現在、トランプ氏の多くの批判者たちは、この資金が2021年1月6日の連邦議会議事堂襲撃事件に参加した人々への資金提供に充てられることになると考えている。

トランプ大統領は、まさに前例のない措置として、納税資金を原資とする18億ドルの基金を創設した。この基金は、同氏の側近らが管理し、司法省の「政治的武器化」によって被害を受けたとみなされる人々へと分配されることになる。

Trump's election fraud claims spread distrust before midterms, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds https://t.co/PY57kvPsXj

"People are responding to them, particularly Republicans, because they're listening to the leaders that they trust, and it's creating ​this vulnerability in people to believe lies about the election," @kellyrader of @statesunited said in an interview.

Tables turn as Republicans face gas-price attacks they once used on Democrats https://t.co/iT9T42jrGR

A dispatch from MI-7, where a Republican incumbent who once rode voter anger over Biden‑era gas prices is now on the defensive. Democrats see a path to flipping this super competitive seat, pressing the Iran war and a renewed spike in fuel costs as fresh lines of attack.

A Trump pledge is falling flat as Ohio musical instrument plant closes - https://t.co/nFefANs8ql

The failed effort to save the plant underscores the limited political power of blue‑collar workers core to Trump’s base, even ⁠when their demands echo his “America First” agenda.

Robert Mueller was among our most distinguished public servants. This is a man who asked to be returned to his job as an unglamorous line prosecutor, after having been promoted to higher levels, because he missed the day-to-day task of keeping the streets safe from crime and trying cases. He arrived at FBI as Director days before 9/11 and did not miss a beat, refocusing the FBI on counterterrorism and keeping the country safe from terror 24/7 for years, no doubt at great personal cost. The job of FBI Director in wartime, when performed ably, is deadly serious and exhausting. I disagreed with his decision to move from the firm that was defending Paul Manafort to be Manafort’s prosecutor, though he was technically permitted to do so. And I disagreed strongly with some decisions he made as Special Counsel. But I never doubted his patriotism, his devotion to the rule of law and public service, and his personal character and valor. Semper Fi.

トランプ大統領はモラー氏を好まなかった。なぜなら、特別検察官であったモラー氏が、トランプ氏の第1期任期中に、同氏の2016年の選挙陣営とロシアとの関係について捜査を行ったからである。誰もが認めるところだが、モラー氏は真の愛国者であり、献身的な公僕であった。

[Nathan Layne @NathanPLayne]

トランプ大統領は、ロバート・モラー元FBI長官の死を悼むのではなく、むしろそれを祝うとする声明を発表した。国家の最高指導者としての振る舞いや礼節という観点から見て、これがどれほど常軌を逸した異例の事態であるか、言葉で言い尽くすことは難しい。
