"A key takeaway from these recordings and the Detroit News’s reporting is that Trump was deeply involved in the minutia of how to stop the electoral certification process, even down to the votes of a county board of canvassing. …
There is almost nothing better than the words of the defendant himself to help a jury understand things like motive and intent."

Another vaporware dream created by Elon Musk finally dies. Hyperloop One, formerly Virgin Hyperloop, is selling off its assets, laying off its remaining workers, and preparing to shut down by the end of the year.
The hyperloop was a concept Elon Musk championed to distract the public from California’s efforts to build a high speed rail network.
High speed rail ran against the idea that fixing the problem with cars required EVs and self driving. So he derailed it.

❌ Here’s a radical idea for ya.
We ALL know what Trump looks like, right? I mean, there’s just no mistaking his image for, say, Brad Pitt or Jamie Raskin or Giuilani?
Why don’t we all STOP POSTING HIS PHOTO with every damn post about him?
Come ON!
It’s enough that his name & latest abomination are reported 666,666 times a day. Do we need that FACE to accompany & emphasize every post?
(Answer: NOPE, NOPE, NOPE!)
Alternatively, use this one. It doesn’t suck quite as much.
OH SNAP!
George Conway, of Kellyanne infamy, is a GOP constitutional lawyer in his own right and just EXCORIATED the dissent in Anderson vs. Griswold:
❝ The three dissents were what convinced me the majority was right.
The dissents were gobsmacking—for their weakness. They did not want for legal craftsmanship, but they did lack any semblance of a convincing argument.❞

JUST IN: Judge HOWELL has ordered immediate enforcement of Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss’ judgment against #RudyGiuliani, contending they have ample reason to doubt he will make good on it. #legal
Via @Brandi_Buchman:
"Giuliani feebly counters concerns about him hiding assets, stating there is no evidence in record of any attempt by [him] to dissipate assets. This statement simply ignores the ample record in this case of Giuliani’s efforts to conceal or hide his assets..."
"Texas emergency management officials chartered a private plane and flew at least 91 migrants to Chicago Tuesday evening...records link the plane’s tail number to the Texas Division of Emergency Management..."
