With news swirling that Special Counsel Jack Smith could indict him at any time, Donald Trump is coming totally unglued on social media. In an all caps late night rant, Trump wrote: SHOCKING! ONE OF THE TOP PROSECUTORS AT THE DEPARTMENT OF INJUSTICE WAS REPORTEDLY SO OBSESSED WITH “GETTING TRUMP” THAT HE TRIED TO BRIBE & INTIMIDATE A LAWYER REPRESENTING SOMEONE BEING TARGETED & HARASSED TO FALSELY ACCUSE & FABRICATE A STORY ABOUT PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP & A CRIME THAT DOESN’T EXIST. THIS CRIMINAL & SALACIOUS ACT FROM WITHIN THE DOJ HAS BROUGHT SHAME & EMBARRASSMENT TO THIS ONCE GREAT & RESPECTED INSTITUTION. BECAUSE OF THIS, THERE IS NOW EXTREME TURMOIL INSIDE THE DOJ….. Page 2. A TOP OVERZEALOUS & DISHONEST DOJ PROSECUTOR OFFERED A WITNESS’ LAWYER AN IMPORTANT “JUDGESHIP” IN THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IF HIS CLIENT “FLIPS” ON PRESIDENT TRUMP, WHO HAS DONE NOTHING WRONG! THE HIGHLY RESPECTED LAWYER WAS INCENSED & DISGUSTED AT THIS CORRUPT & ILLEGAL OFFER. THE FAKE “CASE” AGAINST ME MUST BE IMMEDIATELY DROPPED, AND THE INSPECTOR GENERAL SHOULD LAUNCH AN INVESTIGATION INTO THIS & THE MANY OTHER ALL TOO OBVIOUS WRONGDOINGS & CRIMES TAKING PLACE AT THE DOJ & FBI!

Mark Meadows pleads guilty as part of immunity deal against Trump: Mark Meadows, the former Trump White House Chief of Staff and former North Carolina Republican Congressman, reportedly has accepted a plea deal from the Dept. of Justice in exchange for pleading guilty to federal charges. According to The Independent’s Andrew Feinberg, Meadows has also been co-operating with Special Counsel Jack Smith’s investigators, which several legal experts have recently suggested was likely happening. “Over the course of the last year, grand jurors have heard testimony from numerous associates of the ex-president, including nearly every employee of Mar-a-Lago, former administration officials who worked in Mr Trump’s post-presidential office and for his political operation, and former high-ranking administration officials such as his final White House chief of staff, Mark Meadows,” Feinberg reports at The Independent. “Mr Meadows has already given evidence before the grand jury and is said to be cooperating with the investigation into his former boss,” the article, published Wednesday afternoon, states. “It is understood that the former North Carolina congressman will plead guilty to several federal charges as part of a deal for which he has already received limited immunity in exchange for his testimony.” In an update to its reporting, The Independent adds Meadows' attorney denies he would ever enter any guilty plea:"A source who was briefed on the agreement claimed that the alleged agreement will involve the ex-chief of staff entering pleas of guilty to unspecified federal crimes but an attorney for Mr. Meadows, George Terwilliger, denied that to The Independent. Mr. Terwilliger said that the idea that his client would enter any guilty pleas was 'complete bulls***' but did not address the matter of immunity in a brief telephone conversation with this reporter."

Nic Cage's judgement is very open to question. He once sued his business manager for mismanaging his money.

RIGHT WING CHAOS AS FOX IS THREATENING TO SUE TUCKER CARLSON OVER TWITTER SHOW Fox News has notified Tucker Carlson that he has breached his contract by launching a new show on Twitter, and legal action could be coming. Axios reported: Shortly after Carlson posted the first episode of his new show on Twitter Tuesday evening, Fox News general counsel Bernard Gugar sent a letter to Carlson’s lawyers saying Carlson “is in breach” of his contract agreement. “In connection with such breach and pursuant to the Agreement, Fox expressly reserves all rights and remedies which are available to it at law or equity.” According to Fox, Carlson signed a contract that makes him exclusive to Fox News and is prohibited from doing any other type of show whether it is TV, radio, or Internet while still under contract to Fox News. Carlson’s contract reportedly runs through 2024, so if Fox decides to sue him to keep him off the air, the former top-rated host will lose all momentum if he tries to launch a new venture after his current contract has expired. Fox and Carlson are already locked in a battle about his firing from the network, and it looks like Carlson might have tried to put one over on Fox while playing Elon Musk for the fool. Twitter should have been well versed in Carlson’s Fox contract before they ever agreed to host his show. Fox News could be out to bury Tucker Carlson so that by the time he is legally allowed to return, he will have no audience left to return to.- Wrestling

The larger issue is that Bighill ain't getting any younger, and with aging, a few things are inevitable: he will slow down a bit more every year, become more injury-prone and take longer to heal. Like it or not, this is inevitable and the Bombers need to start looking for a replacement with increasing urgency. I was hoping that Wade would be that person, but apparently not. And excessive verbosity.- The TV Thread

This is typical of the fear and smear tactics that right-wingers use when it becomes apparent that they have screwed up so badly that they have no chance of winning the election. Those who claim that the left is as guilty as the right, need to just look around.- World Politics
The Russians did the same thing in WW2 in trying to halt or slow German advances. All they did then was to drown some 15,000 of their own soldiers, Predictably, Russia is blaming Ukraine while saying that Russia is winning every battle and destroying a lot of Ukrainian military assets. This flooding will kill thousands of wild and domestic animals while cutting off the supply of drinking water to the whole Crimean peninsula where several thousand Russian troops are stationed. The military will probably have some stores of water but the civilian population will have little if any. This will precipitate a humanitarian crisis. - comedy stuff
