Trump lawsuit against the BBC may not succeed, say lawyers.

I’m happy to read it, I hope the whole thing blows up in his face and the jury is full of people who don’t like him.

Shouldn’t be too hard.

Newly released Epstein estate documents mention Trump more than 1,000 times. Congress reopened the government after the Senate reached a funding deal. And Adelita Grijalva was finally sworn in, giving the House enough signatures to force a vote on releasing the Epstein files.

In normal times, it would be a major scandal for the President to direct his AG to criminally investigate his political opponents to deflect from his own involvement in a major scandal — and for the AG to immediately announce she is doing it. The Epstein scandal and cover up just got even bigger.

Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

On Epstein, Trump says he’s allowed to order an investigation into Bill Clinton because he’s the “chief law enforcement agent” of the country

Murphy: "It's clearly the biggest scandal in presidential history. He wouldn't be acting this way if he wasn't so deeply worried about what's in those files. What we've already seen is immensely incriminating. Clearly Trump was at the center of a child sex ring ... the scandal could bring him down."

Paramount, Netflix, and Comcast are putting in bids for Warner Bros. Discovery.

The Telecommunications Act of 1996 was, in the long run, a very bad idea with disastrous consequences.

I’m supposed to be at the cinema right now. However, a bus broke down, causing a traffic jam, and with 6 minutes to go before the adverts & trailers, I’d barely traveled a quarter of the way there. So off I hopped and have walked home, taken a wrong turn and wasted 2 hours of my day.

“They defrauded the public.”

Only Donald Trump could say this about someone else with a straight face.

Actually, more of a slobbery face, but he doesn’t care.

Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, Todd Blanche, and others, plan on holding an EMERGENCY MEETING today on the Epstein Files as the discharge vote nears.

Rep. Boebert will reportedly be there.

Went to see “The Choral”, which was a decent enough period offering from the BBC.

Dozed off in the closing scenes, slept through the credits, only to be woken by cinema staff. First time that’s happened to me and I’m a bit embarrassed.

Oh and by the way, we've had roughly 2M federal employees since the 1940s though our population has more than doubled.
Kind of wild that while food assistance was withheld from millions of families, one Trump-supporting billionaire (Ellison) saw his net worth grow more this year than the entire SNAP budget. And the YTD gains of the other four richest men would’ve fully covered salaries for all 2M federal employees.
