Dying at the right-wing activists that (1) held a call with Todd Blanche in which Blanche made a lot of anti-abortion promises, (2) said "uh this is off the record" like doing so would magically ward off journalists, and then (3) UPLOADED IT TO THEIR YOUTUBE CHANNEL www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

The acting attorney general’s conversation with Trump appears to have taken place just hours after the president publicly mused about pulling Blanche’s nomination and instead trying to push through a fund that could be used to compensate Jan. 6 rioters and others who claim to have been persecuted by the Biden administration. Announcements at the beginning and end of the Intercessors for America call stated that it was “not intended for press purposes.” A speaker told attendees that the call was “not on the record” and directed any journalists on the line to hang up. POLITICO was not on the call on Thursday when it took place and did not agree to any limits on reporting. Audio of the session was posted on YouTube by Intercessors for America, which calls itself “the largest national prayer ministry dedicated to praying for our government and leaders.” As of Monday, the recording remained publicly accessible.

The whiplash of watching BYU muff a punt at the 20 & it rolling back to the 2 thinking “we’re right back in this” to BYU picking it up at the 2 & returning it for a TD thinking “The football gods hate me and me specifically.”

his book about going to every SEC stadium reveals that he is a die hard Counting Crows fan and also he worked very, very hard to never have to actually practice law.

I still cringe at baby me buying his first book and the one on Tennessee football (this is before the heel turn to RW grifter). I dropped one in the charity bin; the other I lent to a cousin who's a Vols fan and have since told them they can keep it.
