Trump just picked his own personal criminal defense lawyers to the #2 & #3 top spots at DOJ. In any other era, this would have been a big story, a clear conflict of interest, a corrupt violation of keeping the Justice Department independent. But with Trump, barely a notice.

Pete Hegseth is the epitome of white privilege. A weekend anchor on Fox and Friends, a Major in the National Guard will be the head of the most powerful military in the history of the world. The military is suppose to be apolitical. Pete Hegseth is purely political. Together with Trump they want to purge โwokeโ generals. That is UNAMERICAN. There are men and women with more experience at the Pentagon than he has been alive. A platoon leader now over the Pentagon. Republicans complained about DEI programs promoting incompetence and those who are unqualified. This is the height of hypocrisy. I will not be silent with the governance we are entering. That is the role of the opposition party. We lost the election, not our purpose.

Students are having their votes massively suppressed by the DeSantis Regime at the biggest school in Florida of over 50,000 students. This needs to be a national news story. This is blatant election interference by @RonDeSantis and his appointed minion @OCFElections
3 Nov 2024
The lines to vote at the University of Central Florida are 2 to 3 hours long and have been for the past week. Meanwhile, at other early voting locations with older populations itโs 10 minutes. โฆ@OCFElectionsโฉ is suppressing the youth vote. This is election interference.

This is one of the most consequential pieces of journalism this week and it was because a student journalist paid attention to Trump's criticism of the CHIPS Act and then asked Speaker Johnson about it. No polling, no apostrophe's. Just good journalism. More of this, please.

Wow. The LA Times didn't just squash a Kamala Harris endorsement. They buried an entire series of articles about Donald Trump:
"According to internal memos viewed by TheWrap, the series, tentatively called 'The Case Against Trump,' would have ran throughout this week. The endorsement of Kamala Harris would then have been published on Sunday."

Still insane to me that Trump inherited good job growth / wage growth / stock market from Obama
Faced ONE crisis in his whole presidency and just whiffed it completely, historically bad
And people are like โyeah but that doesnโt countโ

FYI: Billionaire LA Times owner Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, who decided the paper would not publish its endorsement in the presidential election, paid no federal income tax for 5 consecutive years, @propublica found in 2021:
propublica.org/article/when-โฆ
ALT "In some cases, the deductions from money-losing businesses have allowed a handful of people to avoid paying taxes for years. Ty Warner, creator of the Beanie Baby toy, lost so much money on his side business โ luxury hotels and resorts โ that he went 12 years without paying a dollar in federal income taxes. Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, who built his $7.1 billion fortune by selling two drug companies, oversees an array of businesses that have produced tax losses, including the Los Angeles Times, which he bought in 2018. He hasnโt paid federal income tax in five consecutive recent years."
ALT "Soon-Shiong reported negative income for six straight years from 2013 through 2018. That enabled the billionaire doctor to pay no federal income tax from 2013 through 2017. In 2018, he paid $158,000. By the end of 2018, he still had over $400 million in accumulated losses that he could use to offset income in future years, ProPublica estimates."

Not just being in the country illegally, working illegally. Visa fraud which likely would have led to a lifetime ban for him and his brother. His residence in the country and thus his eventual citizenship are all based on fraud.

This is a massive scandal.
Per The Daily Beast
โTrump waited to make sure that Bezos did what he said he was going to do, and then met with the Blue Origin people,โ he said on Saturday. โWhich tells us that there was an actual deal made."

A reminder:
It was Jared Kushner and the Trump administration who gave @washingtonpost writer Jamal Khashoggi to the Saudis, dismembered with a bone saw and liquefied in sulfuric acid.
But in a contest between Harris and Trump, Jeff Bezos can't make an endorsement.
.@washingtonpost @JeffBezos apparently democracy really does die in darkness. The darkness or a billionaire's bank vault.

Peter Theil and Elon Musk were raised in Apartheid South Africa. Conditioned in an authoritarian society and now using their wealth to create it here. They have found the perfect opportunity with this MAGA movement. Coporate greed and fascism is a dangerous alliance. With Putin, Ormand, LaPen, Trump, and others this is a global threat. They share the belief that they will shape the world by force and have the right to do so. This idea of superiority is the rationale for violence if they donโt get what they want.

Like clockwork, an industry trade group is suing to stop the Biden-Harris Administration's awesome, pro-consumer โclick to cancelโ rule that would make it easier to cancel subscriptions.
Big business doesn't want government to work for you.

BREAKING: An industry group representing Comcast, Disney, Warner Bros. Discovery and other corporate interests is suing to block the FTC's new "click to cancel" rule that requires companies to make canceling a subscription just as easy as it was to sign up.

For years I've been investigating Jared Kushner's business deals with foreign governments. He's masquerading as an investment manager but the evidence I've seen makes him look like an unregistered foreign agent. @RepRaskin & I are calling on the DOJ to appoint a special counsel.

Now we know: Josh Hawley is only in Missouri six times a year.
Josh has secured $0 in congressionally directed spending for MO as Senator. He isn't running for reelection to keep serving us โ he's running to keep up his luxury lifestyle on the coast.

Billionaires are trying to buy the election for Trump
Timothy Mellon gave $125 million for Trump
Miriam Adelson gave $100 million
Elon Musk gave $75 million & Dick Uihlein $40m
Sadly, these plutocrats care more about lower taxes than preserving democracy
