DeSantis’ First Voter Fraud Bust sent a SWAT team to arrest someone who voted once after being incorrectly told he could by elections officials.
Meanwhile, the Republicans in The Villages who intentionally committed voter fraud by voting twice are receiving wildly different treatment.
https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2022/08/florida-voter-fraud-election-police-desantis-entrapment.html
The governor’s own appointees flubbed their legal duty to stop them from registering. And because of their sloppy errors, all 20 defendants may well be acquitted of crimes they did not intend to commit. As Politico’s Matt Dixon has reported, these defendants were told by Florida officials that they were legally permitted to vote.
>> But that doesn’t matter if they get released. The message has been sent to black people that if they risk voting, the Forced Birth administration of Florida will jail them at random. White voting republicans can do what ever they want.
I see this as an indicator of what the next Forced Birth president will do as president. The republican Apartheid state.

The Origin of Student Debt: Reagan Adviser Warned Free College Would Create a Dangerous “Educated Proletariat”
https://theintercept.com/2022/08/25/student-loans-debt-reagan/
Reagan pushed to cut state funding for California’s public colleges. This, he complained, “resulted in the almost hysterical charge that this would deny educational opportunities to those of the most moderate means. This is obviously untrue. … We made it plain that tuition must be accompanied by adequate loans to be paid back after graduation.”
Combine boomer voters who don’t want to pay for other people’s education and forced birthers voters who want everyone but them to be uneducated and that’s enough to get politicians elected who will work tirelessly to destroy public K-12 and affordable college.
I hope the next generations can enact meaningful change, cause I’m tired of this greedy and cruel generation being in charge.

Last I checked Degen and other deeply humiliated Republican losers have been preaching recession for six months, during which time BLS has posted record jobs numbers.
We used to be told that Republicans would make great government leaders because “they know business”.
Exactly what kind of a business goes on a six month hiring binge, increasing payrolls as fast as they can, and raising wages and benefits across the board, when the expect ECONOMIC NUCLEAR WINTER any second? Presumably, right now, while every other major employer is scrambling to hire/retain, on-board, and promote, all the Republican business owners are laying people off, canceling leases, cutting overtime, and canceling orders?
I don’t really know if it was ever actually true that Republicans were “good” at business. I think it’s more likely that for a long time, when information, data, and intelligence was much less widely available, Republicans were better at operating insider networks to corruptly rig markets and relationships. Maybe this is why they’ve shifted that philosophy to politics over the last forty years. It’s all they know and it doesn’t work in business anymore.

Looks like Cheetolini may have finally found himself a real criminal defense lawyer:
https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/30/politics/chris-kise-trump-legal-team/index.html
I think they’ll probably continue forward with trying to suppress the search warrant, but in a more professional and organized fashion. But behind the scenes things may not run as smoothly as it appears.
One of the big issues with these teams of rivals trying to provide legal counsel and services to the dangerously corrupt leader of the Republican Party is that Trump’s preferred model of advisers as “courtiers” is highly dysfunctional for a legal defense. “Access” to “the boss” is restricted and jealously fought over. There are lots of kinds of legal representation that can be carried out successfully with the client at arms length. But criminal defense isn’t one of them. Nobody’s been charged with anything yet. So it’s premature to suggest this can’t work for Trump for now.
But the minute he is named or indicted either the parking lot lawyers pack their bags and move out, or the whole thing will be a dumpster fire. I’m guessing Kise isn’t down for that. So even if he’s doing this for free or someone else is paying for it, I suspect his service is also conditioned on being the sole attorney in charge of the case. No “team of rivals” bullshit. No “you need to go through Kash for that”. The parking lot lawyers will continue to appear on Newsmax talking shit. At least for a while. But they won’t really know what’s going on. Which isn’t really much of a change actually.

Assistant Director of the Secret Service Anthony Ornato was fired yesterday and escorted out of the building as well.
Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
DOJ has requested and had approved a request to submit a brief twice as long as normal in their response to Trump’s motion seeking appointment of a Special Master to oversee all the stolen classified documents recovered from the damp basement of Trump’s private sex club in Florida.
My guess would be that the need for a substantially lengthier response is driven by the need to fully brief the judge on the host of legal and factual issues relating to classification, national security intelligence, and the espionage act. A Special Master is normally an attorney from outside the government, with appropriate CV and background, intended to be able to act independently. But where very sensitive national secrets may be involved that could present significant problems.
Such a Special Master may not have the clearances needed, and providing them in a timely manner would be cumbersome. Moreover in the case of some information it might be practically impossible and considerably risky. Intelligence agencies with equities into the information involved would have to be involved in the process. And DOJ is probably arguing that before the judge make such a decision in favor of the motion, those agencies should also be allowed to brief the court.
But a substantial portion of the response will probably be devoted to informing the judge about the risk assessment pertaining to the classified materials. The need for an additional 20 pages might suggest that the risk assessment is lengthy and complex.
There might be plenty of other very good reasons for denying Trump’s motion. But one particularly good reason would be if granting the motion would needlessly expose highly guarded secrets critical to national security. If Judge Cannon denies the motion it may provide some insight into the type of classified intelligence Republicans stole and hid in the damp basement of Trump’s private sex club in Florida.

86 – Billionaires should pay for it. OK, let’s start with taking half of Harvard’s $53 billion to start it all off. In fact, let’s take half of what the top 100 Ivy League and other universities have stashed away in their endowment funds and use the money to extinguish the liabilities of student loan debt
Start first with those students who were victims of fraud by shady educational operators like Corinthian. Then move on to the folks who, though motivated, weren’t smart enough for university-level work, realized it and dropped out to get jobs. Call it a reward fro making a bad decision, if you will, but it’s a good place to start.
While we’re at it, let’s get Mike Bloomberg to pony-up $100 million for this project. After all, if he can waste that amount on trying to keep Florida out of the Trump column in 2020, he can surely help out some college-aged kids who made some poor choices. After Bloomberg ponies-up, then go after Soros, Gates, Buffet and the rest of the woke billionaire tribe. We can get this project handled without having a bunch of Lyft drivers or fast food workers contribution a penny.

I swear or affirm that above statements are true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

She needs a lawyer and a deal. And she needs them both yesterday.
Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
Last night’s filed response to Trump’s motion for appointment of a Special Master 100% confirms that an active, ongoing criminal investigation is underway. The serving of a criminal grand jury subpoena prior to the execution of the search warrant strongly implied as much. But last night’s filing confirms this. Some will report this as “a criminal investigation of Trump”. That’s premature and probably a misstatement. No targets have been identified so far as we know.
The filing alleges that certain unidentified individuals took specific overt, intentional actions in response to the communications from DOJ and the criminal subpoena to delay compliance, conceal or disguise materials responsive to the requests and the subpoenas, and relocate materials. Obstruction charges are now included in the mix of supporting statutes. And those statutes figure prominently in the response filed last night.
The first evidence of this criminal obstruction was obtained before the seating of a criminal grand jury in the SDFL, and was developed from materials and information included in the previously relinquished stolen documents. This then was prior to the June 3rd service of the subpoena and the certification from Christina Bobb referenced in my post above.
Some of the marked and identified classified documents recovered during execution of the search warrant were located outside of the boxes in the damp basement rooms of the private sex club in Florida. Three classified documents were found and recovered from Trump’s personal office desk commingled with other papers and documents having nothing to do with the White House or the government.
Some of the documents recovered during execution of the search warrant were classified with “additional sensitive compartments that signify very limited distribution” such that the FBI agents and DOJ attorneys from the CounterIntel section were required to obtain additional classification clearances in order to review them.
At no time prior to execution of the search warrant did Trump or any person representing Trump make any mention of any assertion of any kind of privilege over the documents being sought.
The filing states that certain personal items belonging to Donald J. Trump, including documents, that were commingled with the classified documents responsive to the warrant, were recovered during the search and retained because they contain evidence of other criminal activity.
Prosecutors and former prosecutors will probably read much more into the information contained in the filing. But some of that is undoubtedly owing to their personal perspectives as prosecutors. For instance, declining to grant DOJ access to the boxes in the room prior to the execution of the search warrant is not “evidence of guilt or intent”. It’s being a responsible lawyer. Whether or not Christina Bobb was telling the truth when she swore that she had turned everything over, her client still retains his Fourth Amendment rights.
However, that being said, the filing late last night paints a devastating picture of criminality on the part of all the Trump people involved. And it’s very hard to understand the sustained effort to withhold and obstruct these stolen classified secrets for any “innocent” purpose. The DOJ has every reason to be deeply concerned that these most highly classified secrets are now compromised.
Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
I really must add that the emerging position of Trump defenders that “law enforcement are all entirely untrustworthy” and that “the things prosecutors say in sworn filings before a court are no more trustworthy than random media statements” is pleasantly surprising and not entirely unwelcome.
The problem fundamentally isn’t exaggeration, hyperbole, or distortion by prosecutors in motions and responses during an investigation or preceding a trial. Whatever is claimed or alleged must still be proven in court and must still overcome what one hopes is healthy skepticism on the part of jurors weighing such claims and allegations against a rational standard of proof.
The problem is the presumption of credibility and truthfulness absent that proof. If it isn’t already obvious as fuck from the timeline and documentation surrounding the sex club warrant, powerful and affluent white folks like Trump get treated with immense care and respect for their rights. But not every investigation is carried out with such care and respect. And it wouldn’t hurt a bit if a few more “law and order” Republicans, including not a few Never-Trumpers were to develop a bit more skepticism about the claims of cops and prosecutors in the absence of evidence.

But the GOP will very likely lose this one. And though even Degen knows it, he refuses to face up to the reasons or make any attempt to learn from them. We’ve talked this over before, many times.
This is Teh Orange Event Horizon.
This GOP nominee is a disaster. And this was easy enough to see coming. But the reason he is the nominee, and not the arguably more talented opponents he faced in the primary, is because the entire GOP is enthralled to an ignorant television clown who still, even now, controls their destiny and rules over every critical decision. And knowing this, and knowing with growing certainty what it has cost them, what it is costing them, and what it absolutely will cost them well into the future, they still can’t quit him.
Even now they run to his defense, including Degen. They simply can’t resist doing so. Even as the criminal evidence continues to pile up and the damage to themselves and their reputations continues to pile up with it. Because when they were not paying attention they allowed “party ahead of everything else” to become “Trump ahead of everything else”. And for that he will destroy them.
It remains useful to note that there has never been a point when they could not have easily avoided all this by simply repudiating Trump and forcing him to stand alone to sink or swim on his own. Democrats certainly did that to Clinton over the blow job. Hell, they did it to Barack Obama simply for being Black. But the one enduring fact of Trump’s entire political career is that throughout it all he has been propped up, sustained, and defended by nearly every Republican anyone can name. And those few brave Republican souls willing to put even a smidgen of distance between themselves and support for Trump have been permanently cast out.
They are doing all this to themselves. But Fetterman deserves some credit. His rise in Pennsylvania politics is a study in determination and will power. Up until May the entire campaign strategy was built around the candidate himself appearing everywhere, all the time, and personally convincing small groups of voters all across his state to support him, seemingly one handshake at a time. When his stroke forced him onto the sidelines in May his social media team and communications team pivoted in a way that every other campaign is now going to school on. And it is probably fair to say at this point that Fetterman’s unique blending of working class ethos with progressive idealism has probably decoded the current populist atmosphere for those Democrats smart enough to pay attention.
But all that should have done for him is put him in the running at a disadvantage to a better funded Republican opponent in a cycle automatically putting him six points behind at the starting gate. Instead he is narrowly favored to win based on polling that seems to be oversampling the wrong respondents in a way that might favor his opponent.
Republicans are doing all this to themselves, and they appear determined to continue. We should not be a bit surprised if between now and the summer of 2024 the Supreme Court once again accedes to Republican bigotry and hatred and takes away birth control and marital freedom, producing further skewing of turnout, right before they nominate Trump for the third time in as many cycles.

In Indiana, two city street workers were trimming back vegetation when a black pickup truck drove by fast. The Hispanic worker shouted at the driver to slow down; the driver responded by yelling, “Get the fuck out of my way!”
Skipping over some details and fast forwarding, the driver pistol-whipped the Hispanic worker; then stood over him, pointed the gun at his chest, and pulled the trigger. It didn’t fire. He pointed the gun at his head and pulled the trigger again. It didn’t fire; instead, the magazine and a bullet fell out of the gun.
When the police later spotted the black pickup truck and pulled it over, the driver’s “fidgety” hands kept moving toward his waistbelt. At that point an officer drew his gun. A patdown search found the gun in his waistbelt. At that point the driver said he carried the gun to “protect his family” and had been “attacked by two guys with weedeaters.”
He’s white, of course. And this being deep-red Indiana, he’s probably not a Biden voter who donates to the local Planned Parenthood to help 10-year-old rape victims travel to other states for abortions.

Here is what Rachel Richardson had to say about the incidents courtside at BYU:
https://www.dukechronicle.com/article/2022/08/duke-volleyball-rachel-richardson-vincent-price-statement-byu
Ms. Richardson’s statement was supported both by her own coach and AD and by the AD of BYU. The non-student BYU fan alleged to have engaged in the racist heckling from the student section has since been given a permanent ban from attending all BYU hosted sporting events as a ticketed spectator.
Degen posted a link to some kind of editorial student garbage from the BYU student paper. I have no idea what it says nor do I have any intention of reading a single word of it unless it contains an apology on behalf of all Mormons for being Mormon.
BYU students, BYU coaches, BYU athletic department personnel stood by grinning silently while one of their fans seated in their student section hurled racial abuse at a student athlete. BYU’s own AD has acknowledged this and it formed the resulting conclusion of the department’s investigation into the incident.
The anonymous ramblings of racist frat boys from one of the most racist division 1 college campuses in the nation are no basis to conclude anything at all about Rachel Richardson’s statements. The official conclusions of the BYU athletic department is.

CPD took Smollett’s reports very seriously and carefully and thoroughly investigated them.
During the match BYU’s coaches appear to have been reluctant to investigate “their own students”, delayed notifying campus law enforcement and facility staff, and downplayed concerns at the time. It was not until after the game when a Duke player was physically confronted and a threat of violence delivered in the presence of multiple witnesses that they finally took meaningful action. And that also prompted the involvement of the AD.
And that would be very understandable. BYU’s AD would be justifiably concerned that an NCAA investigation into BYU student and fan racism would not end well for the school or the athletic department.
He probably feels much the same way about the student paper and racist idiots like Degen Streisanding the fuck out of this.

That works out to about $1,700 per bus passenger. The provider is a Texas-based charter company. A one-way ticket on Spirit Airlines from Dallas to Chicago costs 54 bucks.

Elijah Dominic McDotcom spews:
One bit of advice: always study the footnotes.
First footnote in the DOJ response filed late Tuesday night addresses claims from Trump lawyers that the receipt the DOJ provided for stolen classified documents recovered from his private sex club in Florida is not sufficiently detailed. Trump’s motion has argued that despite the markings or cover sheets indicating the highest levels of classification, the recovered documents are benign – one might even say “lunch menus”. Being the kind of lawyers that they are, they were not content to restrict this performative argument to television, but included it in the sworn motion before the court.
The footnote addresses the claim by stating that, while the previously provided receipt is sufficient under the law, “the government is prepared, given the extraordinary circumstances, to unseal the more detailed receipt and provide it immediately to plaintiff.”
Receipts provided in criminal search warrants are normally scrubbed of details that might be prejudicial to the due process rights of anyone who might later be accused of crimes arising from the warrant. For example a search warrant receipt provided to Matt Gaetz might list “Photo albums” instead of “Photo albums depicting adolescents engaging in sexual activity”.
Once this footnote was published into the court record it notified media organizations of the existence of another “more detailed receipt” held under seal. As of this morning close to two dozen media companies and organizations have filed briefs and motions to the court requesting that the “more detailed receipt” be unsealed. With Trump being on record in a sworn filing demanding it, and with DOJ not opposed, the third party motions will probably be granted in the next day or two. Maybe even later today.

Last night Trump filed response to DOJ response ahead of the hearing going on right now to consider appointment of a Special Master to take over reviewing the stolen documents recovered from the private sex club. In it Trump agrees with DOJ that any Special Master should have a Top Secret/SCI clearance.
Why? If the materials were all declassified by telepathy or whatever, and if all they really consist of are souvenir lunch menus, why the fuck would a Special Master need any kind of clearance? After all, according to Trump and his lawyers appearing hourly on television, radio, podcast, and live stream, some of the labeled documents were being kept in his office, in open cartons sitting on the floor in plain view, where Trump regularly entertained thousands of random guests over the past eighteen months. None of those guests needed any clearance.
Trump’s lawyers, who now describe seeing those cartons filled with documents labeled TOP SECRET/SCI in his office over the course of the last year and a half, do not hold clearances to view classified documents. The sex club housekeeping staff don’t hold clearances. The stewards who bring Trump his taco bowls aren’t cleared to look at TOP SECRET documents.
Why would the Special Master be any different from some rando building maintenance guy sent in to remove ketchup stains from Trump’s office wallpaper?

I see Brett Favre had the pleasure of being interviewed by FBI agents about the $1.1 million of federal TANF welfare money he got from Mississippi for “motivational speeches” he never gave.
RedReformed spews:
But the revelation by the auditor that $70 million in welfare funds was doled out to a multimillionaire athlete, a professional wrestler, a horse farm and a volleyball complex are at the heart of a scandal that has rocked the nation’s poorest state, sparking parallel state and federal criminal investigations that have led to charges and guilty pleas involving some of the key players.
>> The poor will just use that money for drugs, so spend it on a horse farm and a volleyball complex where Better People(tm) can get good use of those wasted funds. – Every Forced Birth Republican you know.
>> People in Mississippi should elect better politicians

Lenin said the capitalists would sell them the rope the communists would use to hang the capitalists. Lenin was showing the world the soviet system was so shitty that it couldn’t even produce a quality rope which with to conduct a few hangings.
And things went down from there!

More troubling signs ahead for Democrats?
As I mentioned yesterday, Trump’s parking lot lawyers had pleaded for a more detailed search inventory and DOJ, having baited and set the hook, reeled the stupid motherfuckers in, by notifying the judge “that sounds totally cool to us, judge”.
Judge Cannon released the sealed inventory this morning.
Fuck me. Big fucking jail time.
Among the items that leap off the pages are 46 empty folders with classified labels, and 42 empty folders labeled “Return to Staff/Military Aide”, all from various different boxes and containers. A total of 88 classified documents removed from the White House SCI have been transferred to unknown persons in clear violation of the espionage act.
This is really bad. In terms of national security they’ll have to carefully reconstruct as best they can an approximate inventory of these missing documents in order to determine how what equities and interests have been compromised. That will involve each of the three-letter agencies and the Dept of Defense. And it will probably take a while. It’s possible people are dead right now because of these missing documents. It’s possible more will die. And it’s possible that some of our defense systems are no longer reliable. Very shocking stuff. That’s not partisan. That’s just what it is.
It’s also possible that some of the missing documents are included among those recovered, either with the empty folders or previously. But matching documents with empty folders is obviously not something a Special Master from outside the government would be capable of doing at all. The judge’s response to the demand for a Special Master will be impacted by this disclosure and it will be complicated. I’m not sure there is any way for the judge to grant Trump his motion now, at least not for the time being. This constitutes a kind of breach of national security that only the FBI is equipped to handle. And protecting national security should supersede protecting the due process rights of the assholes responsible for that breach.
In terms of criminality it’s a huge criminal case that would very normally rank easily with Aldrich Ames or Robert Hanssen. It’s very hard for me to imagine how anyone with modicum of familiarity with the law could involve themselves in this kind of stuff. To anyone who has ever received a clearance and training in classified document handling this would be radioactive, “you touch it you die” stuff. I don’t care how aggressively insistent and manipulative Trump may be. All of these people involved knew better. What caused them to ignore that is beyond me. They will go to jail. And they deserve to.
This also means that DOJ is probably contemplating (or should be) additional search warrants. This thing is rather out of control.

10 years is way too excessive for someone who only stormed the capital beat a police officer and committed perjury during the trial.

MAGA Republican spews:
Aside from the torches in the streets, the ‘Jews will not replace us”, the calls to jail and murder our political opponents, the deification of the leader, the storming of the Capitol to overthrow the election, the murder of police at the Capitol, the banning of books, the continuous threats of violence if we don’t get our demands met, the embrace of a fascist dictator as keynote at one of our mainstream gatherings AND the overt and casual racism….
What about our movement is fascist?
