Trump is trying to use a federal court to hand himself $1.776 billion in taxpayer moneyâand call it a "settlement." 35 former federal judges just asked a court to reopen the case and investigate whether it was a fraud on the court. The judge responded fast. Here's what's happening: https://t.co/vW78ht42NU
On Wiebes DQ. The bike is weighed twice. We know one was 20g under the limit. They say thereâs a 50g difference. So, 2nd measurement is either 30g over and thus legal, or 70g under, and illegal. Surely itâs the latter, or thereâd be no issue. Once again, transparency needed
This is simply untrue. The footage of her telling us that the finances were healthy and to be careful about asking questions was her response to the announcement that 3 members of the Finance & Audit committee were resigning because Murrell would not show them the books.
There are so many takeaways from Nicola Sturgeonâs interview, but one of them is that having denied for years that her resignation in February 2023 had anything to do with the financial scandal she now says that she first became aware of wrongdoing by her husband in early 2023
She is not being held responsible for her husbandâs crimes. She is being called to account for her deliberate frustration of the legitimate scrutiny which might have revealed those crimes. The distinction should be perfectly intelligible to anyone except the disingenuous.
The Justice Departmentâs reported pursuit of a criminal investigation against E. Jean Carroll demonstrates that Donald Trump has no issue with politicized justiceâas long as itâs on his side, @GrahamDavidA argues in The Atlantic Daily: https://t.co/USAaban5KR
The survivor in the alleged sexual assault case for which Canadian Olympian Nikolaj Sorensen was originally banned has come forward to me to publicly share her name. She is Ashley Foy, a former US ice dancer who now is a coach in the Netherlands. This is what she had to say:
Yes. My position is that reporters shouldnât get dressed up in a tux to have some laughs with the terrible president. I also oppose trying to shoot the president (or anyone). These opinions coexist very easily if you donât have a baby brain.
This is the way itâs always been, because this is a hotel, with paying guests coming in and out. Itâs one of the most secure public event venues in DC, and the Secret Service for decades has concluded that it could protect the event with a perimeter outside the ballroom. No doubt that will now be reconsidered.
Think about how much time Fox News spent on Hunter Biden. That was a real story, worth covering. But here they're not reporting on the potential corruption, they're celebrating it. Gross.
A completely preventable sexual assault. Politicians have the nerve to talk about tackling male violence against women whilst at the same time providing men with opportunities on a plate.
A man was locked up with vulnerable women in a Scottish womenâs prison and sexually assaulted one of them. The fact he thinks heâs a woman is utterly irrelevant except for the fact it meant the SNP government waved him into a female prison. This is on them.
Today the @nytimes published a collection of secret papers from inside the Supreme Court, bringing the origins of its shadow docket into the light. @adamliptak and I obtained memos from the justices that allow us to watch them (the chief justice in particular) turn away from centuries of time-tested process and embark on a rushed, secretive new way of handling cases.

In Maine, ICE brazenly called their operation âcatch of the day.â The banal inhumanity of it all is overwhelming when we step back to look at the big picture. The deaths, the injuries, the conditions in detention, the brazen disregard for peopleâs rights, including American citizens. Even with other stories on the front burner, we canât afford to forget. Because itâs still happening. https://t.co/cLoeHBKdfC
