NEW: @abbyvesoulis.bsky.social obtained body cam footage from the investigation into Rep. Max Miller's alleged abuse. In it, Emily Moreno alleges Miller held her at gunpoint while she changed their daughter's diaper. It also reveals him downplaying their daughter's broken collarbone to detectives.

BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.

as operating system libraries and features are developed and improved by AI, basically nobody will know how to fix, and we’ll rely on AI to fix AI bugs, which means lots of money for AI companies i think i see how they getcha my cursor froze on ubuntu and i have no idea how to fix

Your little oopsie "mistakes" had me worrying for a year of my life about my partner going to jail for up to a decade based on lies likely fed to you by the top of the federal government. Show everyone what you're covering up in these emails and texts. There's a reason you don't want them released.

Boutros acknowledges 'mistakes' in 'Broadview 6' case but says sanctions, special counsel aren't needed

Chicago's top federal prosecutor noted in a court filing that his office has already dropped charges in the case, implemented “robust root-cause changes” and started the process of reviewing over 1,00...

She's absolutely been given the all clear. Murkowski and Cassidy are in but have been told to withhold any statements to preserve the illusion that Collins is actually taking a stand as opposed to her usual performative "no" vote when it doesn't matter.

Susan Collins announces she will vote against confirming Todd Blanche to become Attorney General. This comes after Cornyn and Tillis said they will vote to confirm him. Murkowski has not said how she would vote to confirm him. Same for Bill Cassidy.

I have carefully reviewed Todd Blanche’s qualifications to be Attorney General. This includes his record and responses to questions from Senators at the Department of Justice Appropriations hearing, his confirmation hearing, and in the weeks that followed.

While I believe Mr. Blanche is a capable lawyer, the Department of Justice has become increasingly political.

Mr. Blanche has taken several actions that have further eroded the Department’s independence, and that is the basis for my vote to oppose his confirmation:

Mr. Blanche approved an order to shield the President, his sons, and the family business from IRS audits, protections unavailable to other American taxpayers.

He approved the creation of a $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund.

He promised an anti-abortion organization that he would seek to prohibit the mailing of abortion medication to women nationwide.

Under his leadership, the Department attempted to indict Senators Mark Kelly and Elissa Slotkin over their ill-advised, but constitutionally protected, videos encouraging resistance to unlawful orders.

More than 1,200 former Department of Justice employees have opposed his nomination, arguing that he has undermined the institution.

For these reasons, I will vote against this nomination.

America, we need to do better. We must make real demands on our politicians for policies such as federally guaranteed child care and paid family leave. That starts by getting these issues on the agenda in 2028.

On to the next one. Here's a strange special election to replace Eric Swalwell in 2 weeks. Melissa Hernandez & Aisha Wahab have gone head-to-head twice since June. Wahab won by over 20 points both times. But every AIPAC shell PAC & AIPAC itself are still coming in 10:1 for Hernandez.

An array of super PACs is trying to muscle through Melissa Hernandez in a low-turnout special election for a Bay Area House seat.
