Why are storms developing in the #Gulf? Wind shear is significantly below normal so far this August, esp. near the Gulf Coast. However shear across the whole domain here (#Caribbean, Main Development Region (MDR) and Gulf combined) is tied with 1984 for the highest on record in August… 1/

There’s fresh evidence that the White House hatched a scheme to punish an American state because it didn’t free a convicted felon the president likes. “I’ve never seen anything like it,” a federal judge said. “I’ve never even imagined something like it.” Why isn't this a bigger scandal?

Can someone explain? Todd Blanche said (working by description) he could not meet with the Epstein victims bc they have lawyers. But he met with sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell and her lawyers? Is he ONLY allowed to meet with criminals? I mean, granted, he IS Trump's personal attorney, so...

Trump falsely claimed in a post online that at least 45,000 people attended his speech on the National Mall last night. That figure isn’t supported by any available reports or the images from the event.

MacFarlane: When there was a lawsuit filed to stop the Trump changes to the Reflecting Pool, the plaintiffs argued that it's possible that the Trump team does long-term damage to the pool. Seems they were prophetic.

Social Security is earned, not given. We paid into it our entire working lives. Speaker Johnson knows how unpopular cuts would be. That’s why these conversations happen behind closed doors instead of out in the open. We earned these benefits. We’ll fight to keep them. #HandsOffSocialSecurity

😱😱😱 And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Lets make this viral again 👇

From General Honore Louisiana redistricting hearing this Friday 9 AM, Louisiana State Senate. All hands on deck, Louisiana. This doesn't just impact OUR state. The Supreme Court's disgraceful action destroys voting rights across the country. We're just ground zero this time. #USDemocracy

BREAKING: We filed another emergency lawsuit — this time in federal court — against Louisiana officials for suspending the state's primary election after voting has already begun. Louisiana is disenfranchising voters who have already cast ballots, all in the service of stifling Black voting power.

The Epstein crisis is escalating. Reports say Ghislaine Maxwell may be seeking a pardon as lawmakers demand answers from the DOJ over missing files and unanswered subpoenas. This isn't going away.
