Jack Smith Destroys Trump Assassination Fantasy Brick-By-Brick In Blistering Filing That Reveals Damning New Facts

Trump has been fundraising on the increasingly fantastical scenario, which originated from a filing by Trump attorneys that contains a key misquote of the guidance in the operation order.

That fat orange POS💩 will go lower than a snake in the basement to get what he wants.
Because of him, there is no bar for lying, anything goes.

Lie, lie, and deny.🤥

IVG : La Louisiane criminalise la détention de pilules abortives, jamais un État n’a été aussi loin

Random weird career advise for US people: when you change jobs, it may be tempting to make your last day fall in the last day of the month. It looks like a good and clean way to provide "closure". Don't! Instead set your last day for the first day/week of the following month.

Most companies pay for insurance at the beginning of the month, and you keep it until the last day of the month even if you left the company. Leaving the last day of the month, you'd be uninsured until the next job starts.

HOUSE
Democrat rebuked on House floor for remarks about Trump ‘sex scandal’ case

There’s a subtle form of power difference when people for whom “supporting Palestine” is a “values discussion” tell me, a person who actually has family in Israel and for whom “intifada now” is a clear call to murder them, that I have the “wrong values” for objecting to that phrase.

Like, for you this is a mantle of “being a good person” you can put on or take off. For me it’s my actual home country and family, and not something I can walk away from.

4. "It is happy to invite antisemites into its fold."

Speaking as a Jewish American, Waldman concludes,

"We can’t forget this fundamental fact: These are the last people we should trust."

Paul Waldman asks how the Republican party is getting away with presenting itself as the enemy of antisemitism, when:

1. "It is wholly committed to fostering a conspiratorial worldview that inevitably arrives at antisemitism."

2. "It seeks to create an international alliance of far-right authoritarians."

3. "Both substantively and rhetorically, it echoes the fascists of the past who sought to wipe Jews from the earth."

#Ohio’s Republican Gov. Mike DeWine said Thursday that he is calling a special session of the General Assembly next week to pass legislation ensuring President Joe #Biden is on the state’s 2024 ballot.

If Biden was trying to have Trump assassinated (he wasn't) and the president has absolute immunity (as Trump claims), then that was perfectly legal.

Right?

NEW: RFK Jr. is being quasi-normalized in the political media coverage of his campaign. The depth of his battiness is not being fully conveyed. I took a deep dive into one of his many conspiracy theories to show just how far he's removed from reality.

US democrats ask the Department of Justice to launch a probe into fossil fuel climate disinformation in the same manner that it investigated tobacco companies in the 1990s for deceiving the public about the health risks of smoking. https://open.substack.com/pub/heated/p/democrats-ask-doj-to-investigate?r=27s2d&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email
