Jack Smith on everyone in his team being fired. He mentions Walter Giardina, the FBI agent who was fired just after his wife passed away.

"I just don't see how anyone can hear those stories and not be moved by it."

(He seems moved talking about it).

Pretty hard to "plant" classified material if you're across the ocean at the Hague and haven't been appointed yet and aren't a member of Mar-a-Lago, Eric.

DHS crossed the line drawn by the Hatch Act when it directed airports to air a political attack video blaming Democrats for TSA workers’ lost paychecks. What occurred was not communication; it was coercion.

There was a ceasefire in place when Trump took over. 120 Israeli hostages had been freed. Israel broke the ceasefire 2 mo later. Trump started talking real estate development for Gaza that didn’t include Gazans.
Now, they signed the Biden proposal,

We’ve lived 15 years under Citizens United, watching billionaires and corporations shape democracy with their wallets. Reform once seemed impossible. But now, a group in Montana is asking a radical question: What if states simply stopped granting corporations the power to spend in politics?

Gov. Bill Lee (dodges question): “If they’re not a criminal element, then they shouldn’t be afraid.”

Meiselas: What do you say to people who say while Governor Mills has been a great governor, she’s 77 years old, and we need younger leadership?

Mills: It’s a fair point… But I don’t think I could live with myself if I didn’t do everything I can to reverse what’s going on in Washington

"Bobby Walker, the vice chair of the New York State Young Republicans at the time, referred to rape as “epic.” Peter Giunta, who at the time was chair of the same organization, wrote in a message sent in June that “everyone that votes no is going to the gas chamber.”
