More great investigative work by @DavidCornDC This ought to be a front page story in every major newspaper. Is it? No

I have read Sam Alito's dissent in the AID case, about paying out money for services already rendered-- fulfilling a legitimate contract with our government. Alito's dissent is full of lies, mischaracterizations and massive hypocrisy. He is an utter embarrassment to the law.

@strebel Learned that lesson in Japan, and preach the virtues of bidets ever since.

#Dbacks Last regular season game of the season.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

The Harris campaign just released this statement ahead of Trump’s press conference today. They’re so good at this.

What the actual f*ck

[Norman Ornstein @NormOrnstein]

Time perhaps for someone to take action against both Barr and Sherwin? Bar Association, anyone? Garland DOJ?

@KellanOlson For future reference, it's "nipping that in the bud", not "nipping that in the butt." Wow, apparently, I'm that guy. I'll have to reflect on my life choices. 🙃

Fact checking President Biden's allegation that former President Trump skipped a World War I cemetery visit because the soldiers who died were "losers": https://t.co/RlGD5z18sR

Read this. The shark and the battery in the boat, the Hannibal Lecter refrain are brilliant compared to this. This demented man cannot be president again.
"No water in your faucets. You ever try buying a new home and you turn on. You want to wash your hair or you wanna wash your hands. You turn on the water and it goes drip, drip the soap. You can't get it off your hand. So you keep it running for about 10 times longer. You trying, the worst is your hair. I have this beautiful luxuriant hair and I put stuff on. I put it in lather. I like lots of lather because I like it to come out extremely dry because it seems to be slightly thicker that way. And I lather up and then you turn on this crazy shower and the thing drip, drip and you say I'm gonna be here for 45 minutes. What? There's so much water. You don't know what to do with it. You know, it's called rain. It rains a lot in certain places. But, now their idea, you know, did you see the other day? They just, I opened it up and they closed it again. I opened it, they close it, washing machines to wash your dishes. There is a problem. They don't want you to have any water."

SCOTUS can’t grant Trump immunity from this conviction, nor can a future President, because Trump has been convinced in state court, and if there’s one thing Republicans love, it’s state’s rights.

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

The Chevron doctrine protects everything from climate policy to workplace safety to OT pay.

Koch-backed groups called on SCOTUS to overturn it this term.

Clarence Thomas secretly attended Koch donor retreats but didn't recuse from the case.

Here's what else you should know.

[Cameron Cox @CamCox12]

Sub all the starters out.
Send a message.
Play only the reserves the rest of the game.

[LEEZUS @AndrewLeezus]

Tears in my eyes I miss the Twins man 🥲

[Chuck Schumer @SenSchumer]

This is a pattern we keep seeing.

Without any accomplishments of their own to talk about:

Scores of Congressional Republicans are attending groundbreakings, ribbon-cuttings, and factory openings for projects they voted against.

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

On #AxeFiles, I speak with @TimAlberta of @TheAtlantic, the son of an evangelical pastor, whose new book, The Kingdom, the Power & the Glory, lifts the curtain on the radicalization of the church and rise of "blood and soil Christian nationalism."

@VerizonSupport I sent a DM, and no response in > 20 minutes?

[Ted Cook @cookn]

@Verizon I just had my new phones delivered this evening, and attempted to activate 2 of the 4, and they both failed. Can't get any support via phone or chat. I have 2 lines out of commission, and waiting until Monday morning is not an option.
