NEW: Salt water laced with cancer-causing chemicals, a byproduct of oil and gas drilling, keeps shooting out of the ground in Oklahoma. Experts say it means even more wastewater is spreading underground, poisoning the state’s water supply.

No, it's not. Counterfactuals are really fun, but the counterfactual here is: 1) Trump challenges venue (correctly) and the case arrives in SDFL 9 months after it did. 2) In an attempt to shoehorn the charges into DC, you rely entirely on Official Acts and SCOTUS destroys it along w/the Jan6 case.

Sigh. A lot of the complaints about Smith are bogus, but this seems legitimate. newrepublic.com/post/202294/...

In any case, the bigger problem was that pundits outsourced holding Trump accountable to courts that voters were not going to follow, EVEN THOUGH a great deal was public by April 2024 (which even Dems on HJC remained ignorant of).

No media outlet did a single article on Aileen Cannon's connections to John Rosatti and the New York Mafia, so let's be generous with any blame that is handed out. Why was that not newsworthy, as she was busy throwing the case?

instagram.comwired on Instagram: "The news last week that Dominion Voting Systems was purchased by the founder and CEO of Knowink, a Missouri-based maker of electron…"The news last week that Dominion Voting Systems was purchased by the founder and CEO of Knowink, a Missouri-based maker of electronic poll books, has left election integrity activists confused over what, if anything, this could mean for voters and the integrity of US elections.The company, acquired by Scott Leiendecker, a former Republican Party operative and election director in Missouri before founding Knowink, said in a press release that he was rebranding Dominion, which has headquarters in Canada and the United States, under the name Liberty Vote “in a bold and historic move to transform and improve election integrity in America” and to distance the company from false allegations made previously by President Donald Trump and his supporters that the company had rigged the 2020 presidential election to give the win to President Joe Biden.The Liberty release said that the rebranded company will be 100 percent American owned, that it will have a “paper ballot focus” that leverages hand-marked paper ballots, will “prioritize facilitating third-party auditing,” and is “committed to domestic staffing and software development.” The press release provided no details, however, to explain what this means in practice.Dominion, the second leading provider of voting machines in the US, whose systems are used in 27 states—including the entire state of Georgia—has developed its software in Belgrade, Serbia, and Canada for two decades.

He mocked grieving parents. They sued. He lied again. They won. Now he’s crying — not from guilt, but from losing the only god he ever worshipped: money. Karma always cashes the check. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...
