This is why DOJ and Todd Blanche are trying to prevent state bar licensing authorities from disciplining their lawyers.
Because they keep crossing the wrong ethical line.

If Republicans want to talk about fraud, let’s do it. Trump is responsible for:
✅Defrauding college students
✅Profiting off the presidency
✅Crypto scams
✅Corrupt foreign deals
✅Self-dealing government contracts
✅Shady real estate transactions
✅Pump & dump stock schemes
✅Pardons for political allies
Care to comment, @HouseGOP?
Pulte has no business at DNI, interim, temporary, part-time or otherwise. Period.
Bad enough to weaponize Americans’ banking data; give him intelligence data and the damage to our Intelligence Community’s reputation will be profound.

Ya'll remember when the US set up a coup operation and kidnapped the President of Venezuela and his wife, stole a shit ton of oil, and then put the money in an offshore account, or have y'all already forgotten with all the other dystopian shit distractions???
After 8 billion doses (yes 8 BILLION, not a typo) Covid vaccines are at this point one of the most tested medical interventions in history and one of the safest ever
A 24-year-old Polish tennis player arrived in Paris last week ranked 114th in the world, with no sponsors, no guaranteed income, and no certainty she could even pay for her hotel room.
She had to win three qualifying matches just to enter the French Open main draw. Prize money is only paid at the end of the tournament, so a Polish sports drink brand quietly stepped in and covered her hotel bill.
Her name is Maja Chwalinska. And today, she plays in the French Open final.
Before this tournament, she had won exactly one Grand Slam main draw match in her entire career. She had battled depression so severe that in 2021 she couldn't get out of bed. She underwent knee surgery in 2022. She spent years grinding through small tournaments across Europe just to stay afloat.
Then she arrived in Paris, won three qualifiers, and kept winning. Zheng Qinwen. Elise Mertens. Maria Sakkari. Diana Shnaider. Nine straight matches. One set dropped.
She is now the first qualifier in French Open history to reach the final. The last time a qualifier reached a Grand Slam final, it was Emma Raducanu at the 2021 US Open. Raducanu won.
By simply making the final, Chwalinska has earned more prize money than her entire career combined. The runner-up cheque alone is $1.6 million. If she wins today, she takes home $3.25 million.
One week ago she couldn't pay for her hotel room.

Extraordinary Letter.
Points to Bill Pulte appointment as national security danger.
"The undersigned include twenty-eight former service secretaries and retired general and flag officers who
collectively served under every president from John F. Kennedy to Joseph R. Biden, Jr"
I too am enjoying Hunter Biden being a great poster, but some people are a little too surprised that the son of a President is smart, well-informed, and good at communicating, as if they think addiction only happens to idiots
