Even if you don't have kids, consider supporting the up-coming Percy Jackson series on Disney+ because:

2-The young actress selected for a main role has been slammed with racism--because the character in the book was white. (I'm glad to say that the author has been loudly defending her)

I hope the series succeeds on its merits, but I particularly hope it succeeds as a huge middle finger to the racist detractors.

Ken Chesebro attorney gets
Ken Chesebro in legal trouble here.

He tells reason behind client pleading guilty to Count 15 in GA: failure to put contingency language in false electors document.

Well … that same failure occurred in NV, AZ, MI which have ongoing cases.

The 55 page ethics opinion on Santos has dropped & I’ll give y’all the punch line now 👇🏾, but I’m going to read it while in flight in a couple of hours and try to summarize some of the highlights.

Ethics UNANIMOUSLY (bipartisan) concluded that he broke laws EVERYWHERE & their findings should be referred to the DOJ. This will be a THREAD 👀.
