Glenn Greenwals biases mildly right of center and is rated “mostly accurate”. If he is on target here, this is a very bad development in the biases and practices of some of our pillars of news, in this instance the NYT.

It does beg the question, if trump did all that we believe...why isn't he locked up? Mueller was supposed to get him, that flopped...but the SDNY is gonna nail him, oh declined to prosecute...etc.

There is a reasonable argument to be made that dems waiting on someone to prosecute trump isn't a whole lot different than waiting to lock her up.

Yeah, with none of us being “read in” on the facts of the matters, I see that I took all the media teases for more than they are. The Gaetz accusation may have been, if not fabricated, certainly sold.

Regarding that man, he has simply wallowed in high crimes and misdemeanors; his own media presence attests and no journalists have anything exclusive. So while I harbor a strong sentiment that he should be tried for the big one, treason, I must defer to the assigned triers of fact, and be a bit more disciplined with how I digest journalism, both reporting and op-ed.

On the other hand, nothing as shocking as Alvin Bragg’s exit stage left has come from DOJ. And I’m also wagering on a subpoena from Georgia. So I amuse myself here and a coupla other backwaters and check the news every so often. This could still go like the tale of the tortoise and the hare.

Tillis calls for investigation of Cawthorn over insider trading allegations
Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) Wednesday called for an investigation by the House Ethics Committee into Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-N.C.) over allegations that Cawthorn violated federal insider trading laws.

“Insider trading by a member of Congress is a serious betrayal of their oath, and Congressman Cawthorn owes North Carolinians an explanation. There needs to be a thorough and bipartisan inquiry into the matter by the House Ethics Committee,” Tillis tweeted on Wednesday.

Tillis is supporting a primary challenger to Cawthorn and has been critical of the first-term congressman in recent weeks. Still, it is unusual for a lawmaker to request an investigation into a member of the same party serving in a different chamber.

Spokespeople for Tillis and Cawthorn did not immediately respond to requests for comment from The Hill. The House Ethics Committee declined to comment when reached by The Hill.

Tillis’s tweet came after The Washington Examiner reported Tuesday, citing multiple watchdog groups, that Cawthorn may have violated insider trading laws over his support for the Let’s Go Brandon cryptocurrency, the digital currency piggybacking off the chant used to mock President Biden.

The news was just the latest in a slew of controversies surrounding Cawthorn.

The first-term lawmaker first drew GOP ire in March for saying that other Republican members of Congress had invited him to orgies and done cocaine in front of him. He was also caught speeding and charged with driving with a revoked license, called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky a “thug” and tried to bring a loaded gun with him through airport security.

The controversies have sparked a competitive primary to oust him in North Carolina, and Tillis has endorsed state Sen. Chuck Edwards (R) in the race.

I told the Trumpers in my building that I saw a Trump 2024 sticker- didn't even need to ask what they thought..between the boos and hisses 'never again' I would say he can't count on the Senior Vote this time around.

Then I asked if they liked their SS check? (the crowd silenced in the Community Room)..I gave them my award winning 60 second elevator pitch..the story of Little Donny and The United States of America's Trust Fund, how he halted SSDI applications and that it took me 4 years and change of President..how he wants to make that Trust Fund his; how he installed a puppet that literally wouldn't leave and had to be escorted out of the SSA building in DC by President Biden..the Google machine will tell you if you wish more info.
