BREAKINGNEWS: @HawleyMO needs to apologize to Jack Smith. Jack Smith was appointed November 18th, 2022. The search warrant was August 8th, 2022. Josh claims Smith raided Melania underwear drawers. He wasn't even appointed yet. 🚨
🚨 BREAKING: The family of Renee Good and her partner, Rebecca Good, have filed two federal lawsuits over Good’s January killing by ICE agent Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis.
The first lawsuit is against the United States itself, alleging wrongful death and other claims under the Federal Tort Claims Act. The complaint alleges Ross fired three times as Good’s vehicle turned away from him, killing the 37-year-old mother of three, and argues the shooting violated the Fourth Amendment and DHS use-of-force policies.
The second, much broader lawsuit personally names Ross, Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, Corey Lewandowski, Tom Homan, Todd Lyons, Gregory Bovino, and other federal agents. It accuses them of participating in an unlawful conspiracy surrounding “Operation Metro Surge” and brings claims under the Ku Klux Klan Act of 1871, Bivens, and Minnesota law.
The 149-page complaint alleges Good’s killing was not an isolated incident, but the “predictable and intended product” of a coordinated federal operation that plaintiffs say targeted Minnesota’s Somali and Hispanic communities and sought to intimidate people documenting or warning others about federal enforcement activity.
Together, the lawsuits seek damages over Good’s death and the injuries Rebecca Good says she suffered after witnessing the shooting.
Marc Elias was called an alarmist for saying Trump would refuse to concede if he lost the 2020 election. Then Jan. 6 happened.
“They want you to believe that Donald Trump may say some things, but in the end, he’ll accept the results,” Marc says. “I don’t believe that.”

Chief Justice John Roberts Shunned by His Neighbors as Backlash Over Pro-Fascist, Cruel, and Sadistic Trump Rulings Grows
Chief Justice John Roberts is being frozen out on the Maine island where he has summered for more than 20 years. Neighbors who once shared lobster dinners with him now keep their distance, skip gatherings, or show up to protest his rulings.
The break tracks the court's 2022 barbaric decision overturning Roe v. Wade and Roberts' 2024 opinion granting Donald Trump the same kind of broad immunity from prosecution that other authoritarian tyrants enjoy. Kayakers hold signs a few hundred yards from his house. "Roberts Benched the Constitution" appears on local roads. On Monhegan Island, people who recognized him chanted that he should be ashamed.
Longtime friends have pulled back. Members of a local cigar club skipped this summer's gatherings so they would not have to sit with Roberts and his wife. "It's harder for him to feel comfortable approaching people — and vice versa," said Mary Anne Mason, a former law partner.
His security detail has grown. He used to linger on the dock after church; on protest days he stays away. Wendy Schlotterbeck, a longtime neighbor, said she wanted to ask him directly: "Do you realize what your decisions are doing to my family and my community?"
A recent Gallup poll put the fascist-friendly Roberts Supreme Court's approval at a record low of 33% — which is still 33% higher than it should be.
Melania trump spent MONTHS trying to bankrupt a single mom over a tweet about Epstein. She wanted a public apology, a takedown, AND MILLIONS!!!

NEW: A nonpartisan government watchdog asked a federal court to force the Trump administration to hand over records on its claims that tens of thousands of noncitizens are registered to vote in various blue states.
The request comes after Trump alleged, without evidence, that his administration found 278k noncitizens on the rolls. https://t.co/nuU4f2VS3X
Reporter: You've engaged in partisan activities and appeared at political rallies. It has been the norm for the AG to not do that, are you blurring the line?
Trump's Attorney General Todd Blanche: As far as what I do on my own time, I speak about this administration and all the great things we are doing.
Reporter: You don't have free time... Wherever you go you are the Attorney General.
Stunned MAGA podcast hosts slam Ken Paxton for refusing to debate James Talarico:
“Still no response from the Paxton camp.”
“Does he want to win this race?
“I don’t know. Honestly, I don’t believe he does at this point. The evidence points to no.”
On October 12, 2020, the Times exposed Leon Black's payments to Epstein. That same day, David Perdue's campaign logged $2,800 from Black. Perdue is now Trump's ambassador to China. https://t.co/hVWNyEnd9z
CRUZ: Do you have any evidence whatsoever to believe that I and 20% of Republicans in the Senate will engage in destruction or tampering with evidence or intimidation of potential witnesses?
JACK SMITH: No. We had powerful evidence that Donald Trump and his associates would

trump is spewing his usual garbage and saying whatever absurd thing he wants. Now he is calling residents of another state names and that he can rule over them and ignore their wishes. He is unfit to remain as president. Please remember his comments. Please vote in midterms this coming November.
