This letter, from now-resigned prosecutor Danielle Sassoon to Pam Bondi, is worth reading in full. Simply put, there is no non-corrupt reason for dismissing Eric Adams’ case. The Trump DOJ is itself obstructing both justice and the rule of law. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Elon Musk to reporter: “We post our actions to the DOGE website. All of our actions are maximally transparent. I don’t know of a case where an organization has been more transparent than the DOGE organization.” Here’s the doge.gov website IN ITS ENTIRETY. It’s literally a blank page!

Trump pardoned Michael Flynn, Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, Steve Bannon, his own family, and more, and Trump supporters loved it. I don’t want to hear a word from MAGA about Biden pardoning Hunter.

Naturally the word used by Leonard Leo that’s echoing is “crush,” as in his plans for ideas other than his own. But two skeevy terms in his NPR intrvw stood out: promoting Hollywood creators with “a knack”—the man doesn’t know his own contempt—& the plan to “inject” their work into America.
