Extraordinary NYT story:

Trump’s DOJ pressured out another US Attorney in WESTERN Virginia for finding that a grand jury probe his bosses demanded was unwarranted.

They wanted a case discrediting the Russia probe — evidence be damned. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/u...

The Supreme Court upholds decision requiring Alex Jones to pay $1.4 billion for saying Sandy Hook was a hoax.

Good. His slanderous statements caused unnecessary trauma.

Pay up.

Then start advocating for better gun control.

It’s long past time.

The Supreme Court declined to review the case of a Colorado family that claims a school district talked to their child about her gender identity without permission. The family already lost their case at the federal district court and U.S. Court of Appeals levels. #copolitics

"Supreme Court is a non-partisan body that deserves our praise and respect, and the legitimacy as the ultimate arbitrator of the Constitution; they rule for Trump on everything but against Alex Jones on this thing, so it is neutral."

What I assume NYT headline reads right now.

The Supreme Court just rejected Alex Jones’ appeal, leaving in place the $1.4B judgment for his lies about Sandy Hook. Let’s remember, he made millions tormenting families who were grieving their murdered children. There’s no price tag big enough for that kind of harm.
