Matters of national importance? Really??

Adam Klasfeld@klasfeldreports.com

Donald Trump canceled his scheduled Oct. 16 deposition in his lawsuit against the BBC because of "matters of national importance." The BBC alerts the judge that those matters were: a rally in Dalton, Ga. and a fundraiser at Mar-a-Lago.

Any sweeping systemic change you want to make in the United States has to begin with adding seats to the Supreme Court in 2029. No major reform bill will survive the current court. No civil rights law, no anti-corruption law, no wealth tax, nothing.

Elon Musk is planning to spend up to $200 million to help Republicans in this year’s midterms. That’s just 0.024% of his total net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

$100 to any reporter who asks him, "so you're saying Capitol Police should've shot dead everyone who breached the Capitol on January 6?"

Homan on people getting killed by ICE: "It comes down to one simple fact -- these people failed to comply with law enforcement ... all they had to do is comply. If they did, they'd be alive today."

The Pentagon is withholding causality and hit numbers. The CDC is withholding infection rates. The FDA is withholding information about food contamination. The EPA is withholding pollution and climate data. This corrupt administration is ALL about concealing the consequences of its incompetence.

This isn't about "your laws" or "your country". That's a distortion designed to provoke outrage where none belongs. The International Criminal Court enforces international laws that were approved by the UN, including the United States. It prosecutes war crimes. That's what Rubio is hiding from.

Hard to disagree!

If NY decides NOT to disbar Todd Blanche, then what good are they? The highest court officer in the country MUST be held to the highest standard or else the entire profession is reduced to a compromised JOKE. America has lost its balls.

Three presidents have died on 4th July. John Adams and Thomas Jefferson both died on this date in 1826 and fifth president James Monroe died on 4th July 1831. In unrelated news, Donald Trump is planning on delivering an ultra-long speech in 107°F heat (41.7°C) tomorrow to prove he can!

A reminder: The Attorney General of the United States should be the people's lawyer, not the president's personal attorney. The Department of Justice should act to protect the public, not the occupant of the Oval Office and his political allies.

Dangerous, unhinged rhetoric. Don't sleep on this. Trump accuses NYT's Sanger of TREASON for asking a legitimate question.

Lol, I love these girls!

This is amazing - @kevinolearytv 🤡 is fearmongering about Chinese agents opposing his giant Utah data center… but it’s 2 young local girls in Utah who hilariously call him (and his “dumbass hat”) out👇🏽 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DYU074V...

Interesting!

Picked up this beauty on Saturday. No, it’s not new, it just been with Triumph since early November due to an issue with the gearbox! Saturday was a brief pickup window as we got over a foot of snow last night!

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him. “When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

Despicable! The man has no honour. Or even concept of honour.

🇬🇧 WATCH: “How dare he say this? A man who dodged the draft. Absolute disgrace.” UK soldiers who served alongside us and mothers of the fallen react to Trump disparaging their sacrifice to denigrate NATO. (H/T @lbc.co.uk @mrjamesob.bsky.social ) Putin is pleased.

Why is the UK giving him a platform to continue his whitewashing and blatant lies?

Never thought about it it this way - thought they were just lying liars who lie!

Andrew Stroehlein@andrewstroehlein.bsky.social

It's revealing how Trump regime officials & oligarchs always claim demonstrators against regime crimes are paid to protest. They simply cannot imagine anyone doing something not for money but for principle, to uphold human decency or defend the law.

This is lunacy - the hep B vaccine was the first cancer prevention available (long before the HPV vaccines). Hep B is a silent, insidious killer. This makes absolutely no sense.

Cassidy continues to pay lip service to the public health catastrophe he created with his cowardice.

All the Republican Senators who voted to confirm RFK should hang their heads in shame. Cassidy in particular deserves the opprobrium coming his way has he knew (or should have known) the consequences oh his woeful decision!

I friggin dare you to watch this to the end. Watch & tell me it doesn't move you. This is a 16 year old American boy explaining how Trump's reign of terror & #ICELawlessness has impacted him & his family. If it affects you, please share it. I beg you to hit the link in the next post & save it.

À year ago today I finished my ride from Pennsylvania to Oregon (and back!). This leg was from King George , VA to New Hope, PA via Belmar Beach NJ to make it a true coast-to coast! Beautiful autumn colours along the way! #motosky #fortheride #rocket3gt #motorcycles #triumph #coasttocoast #scenery

Federal agents aren’t trying to keep the peace. They want violence to escalate so that Trump can declare martial law. They shot a reverend in the head with pepper balls while he was praying in front of an ICE facility. If that doesn’t tell you where we are as a country, nothing will.
