Donald Trump is racing to stop the BBC from getting his financial records. After the network demanded access to his records to determine whether he actually suffered the billions in damages he claims, Trump’s lawyers are now trying to block that evidence from being turned over.

Since Trump came back into office I've been waiting to see on WHICH case, which instance of abusive prosecution, DOJ first invoked the language in Trump v. US that lets POTUS prosecute whoever he wants. It appears to be @katmabu.bsky.social's case, Broadview 6. emptywheel.net/2026/08/05/d...
DOJ Invokes Trump v. US to Protect Todd Blanche's Fixer, Aakash Singh - emptywheel
In the 18 months that Trump's former defense attorney Todd Blanche has run DOJ, he has yet to rely on Trump v. US, the SCOTUS precedent giving the President unbridled authority to dictate individual p...

EMERGENCY!!!!!!! 🚨🚨🚨🚨 Says Trump's moneybags. Tomorrow he has to turn over the financial information that has been obvious since he decided to sue on the basis that factual reporting harmed his net worth. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

In no way, shape, or form does any thinking adult trust Todd Blanche. The Senate must refuse to confirm him.
Phang: "Capital One said, 'We don't want the business anymore of the 45th president of the United States, his businesses, his failed sons, and his revocable trust.' So you can imagine -- I am just hypothesizing... but it suggests whatever Capital One uncovered was pretty bad. Makes you wonder..."
A new Senate investigation says JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank and Bank of America processed massive sums tied to Jeffrey Epstein despite glaring red flags. Powerful institutions helped keep his operation running and every one of them must be held accountable. Follow the money, release everything.
Thank you to everyone who voted today. And a special thank you to everyone who volunteered and helped at the polls! đź’š

Don't let anyone gaslight you. Tonight was a HUGE win and represents a seismic shift in Democratic politics.
Via @oliverdarcy.bsky.social: www.status.news/p/david-elli... CNN reporters were not amused by David Ellison's op-ed in the NYT.
A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Same editor who stalled the CECOT migrant story until Stephen Miller got a say. CBS keeps calling it timing. Sure looks like a pattern.

Wyden revealed he was interviewed for the show in a Senate report alleging the country's largest banks turned “a blind eye” to Epstein's financial activity

Here Are 19 - Yes, 19! - Ways Trump and Republicans Are Plotting to Rig and Steal the Midterm Elections
Attacking immigrants and Black voting power. Gutting election security. Voter purges. Threats of arrests and raids. And so much more. Trump’s assault on elections is truly unprecedented.

📌Susan Collins is voting "no" on the repulsive Blanche because she has been given political cover by Thune. Her vote doesn't matter. This isn't a heroic decision, it is pure politics, and whether anybody wants to admit it or not it's how she has survived like a parasite in that chamber for 30 years.
Judge Mehta's J6 Requiem "That book is now closed. Today’s epilogue diminishes the gravity of that day, denigrates the work of the prosecutors and ... officers who secured these convictions, and excuses criminal acts that caused a centuries-long pillar of our democracy ... to buckle."
After failing to derail Mamdani and El-Sayed, the Establishment's entire focus will be to derail Francesca Hong. I hope she stays on message & doesn't let them distract her. People don't care about old tweets, they care about whether you're fighting for them & against the oligarchy & corruption.

Biden was replenishing our stockpiles with US manufacturers using US union steel. Trump has sent tens of thousands of those jobs overseas and has crippled our supply chain with tariffs and none of our allies want to help us. Maybe we can buy our arms back from Saudi Arabia.
