"Pirro clearly wanted to spare herself any further scrutiny by the courts, but her motion to dismiss is comically inept, an attempt to paper over the fact her office charged Hearn based only on Trump's fevered imaginings. All it does is highlight how much she was willing to lie in the first place."
Jeanine Pirro crashes into the limit of Trump's lies
It's one thing to bullshit on Fox. It's another to lie in court.

Sure, let's elect Al Capone president... There's a reason he hides his taxes and medical records and wants blanket immunity for the entire Trump family for past and future tax fraud. Capitol One closed 300 Trump accounts due to suspicion of money laundering. www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

El-Sayed can win the general, certainly. But the pool of voters is different. Primary-voting Dems are less likely to be swayed by shallow ad blitzes than the electorate at large. Abdul needs to adjust to that.

Trump & Russ Vought proposed a rule to take every federal grant in America hostage. They don't care about making our tax dollars work better—they just want them to work for Trump. Well, Democrats BLOCKED their corrupt rule, and I'll be fighting to kill it permanently.
Republicans set their health care grenade to go off after the election. Don’t be fooled.

I could not navigate this house sober, much less pissed. Take 250k off the price just for wallpaper and flooring removal and replacement and I might think about it.

Request to fellow Dems of all stripes: Let's keep our analyses of primary results positive, recognizing that we're all in this together. I've heard some poisonous stuff behind the scenes recently. It helps no one. A diverse party energized by new ideas, voters & candidates is what we need now.
The same old Susan Collins charade. As soon as a controversial nominee or a bill has enough votes to pass, she announces she will vote no when it doesn’t matter. She never casts a deciding vote against Trump. Now she will claim this shows how she is so “independent.”
What a surprise, the alleged abuser was jacking himself up on testosterone.
This is a really good point, except the economy is worse
A Toll by any other name... @dennisgoris.bsky.social
Hoodlum 🇺🇸@nothoodlum.bsky.social · yesterdaySo it’s a “service fee,” not a toll. Trump let Bibi drag the US into this mess. The deal gives Tehran more leverage over the waterway than before the war. As analyst Ali Vaez puts it, Trump faces a choice between “an unwinnable war and an unpalatable peace.” www.nytimes.com/2026/08/03/u...
BREAKING: Todd Blanche took a major step toward confirmation as attorney general after the Senate Judiciary Committee voted 12-10 on party lines to advance his nomination, likely setting up a final vote within days.

We cannot tuck our pants into our socks any tighter or check for ticks any more thoroughly than we already are, Sarah Zhang writes. She proposes a bolder solution to combat these blood-sucking pests:
Kill the Ticks
America needs a bigger plan to control its tick problem.

FYI: Blanche rescinded the ORDER establishing the slush fund, not the underlying “settlement.” The settlement says any changes must be agreed to by ALL parties, not just Todd. This “rescission” isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.
