The MAGA 6 on the Supreme Court, just hours after dining on champagne with Trump at a state dinner, just fired the starter's pistol to the race to the bottom, as Red States scramble to remap their congressional districts to dilute black and other minority votes in the way congressional maps are drawn.

Trump (perhaps even writing it himself) has had his DOJ file a political screed masquerading as a new motion filed with the wrong court, with the wrong judge, making the wrong arguments, and misstating the facts, about the current state of the ballroom construction project to try to further exploit the tragedy averted at the WHCD on Saturday. Popok explains why this is doomed to fail, as Trump’s f...

Popok examines the curious new data point that the MAGA team assigned to the case, including Judge Aileen Cannon’s former law clerk, have rescinded th...

In breaking news, Trump’s DOJ may have folded again and has announced that it will be “closing” the already court-terminated criminal investigation into the Fed and its Chair Jay Powell, but it may not be closing it after all. Which begs the question: Will this too smart by half announcement of a criminal case that is both closed and not closed (a la Schrodinger’s famous cat), satisfy the requirem...

In breaking news, FBI Kash Patel’s attempts to litigate his way into proving that he is not prone to “excessive drinking” on the job, has backfired spectacularly in just 24 hours as the House Democrats demand that he take an alcohol abuse test and submit for sworn testimony about his security clearance and possible drinking; Patel’s own outburst at a press conference calls into question is suitabi...

Of course a president who was once indicted for committing espionage and obstruction by taking presidential papers with him to Mar a Lago, would find a way to argue he has the right to destroy all presidential papers now. In breaking news, a new emergency preliminary injunction has been filed to effectively stop Trump from destroying not only Presidential records, but the National Archive itself,...
