We have a new high poll for Dems AFAIK of D+16 on the generic ballot among likely voters. I think pollsters are playing kind of fast and loose with these filters to only use decided voters but still. Holy hell

More precisely, Kash Patel was paid $25,000—and Rudy Giuliani $100,000—by a pro-Russia propagandist who led a project financially supported by Putin's office. To get the full story, see my new book, "How Russia Won: Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, and the Fight for America." Go to HowRussiaWon.com.

“Patel is apparently planning a trip to Russia, a country that (a) is no friend of the United States nor the FBI specifically and yet (b) is quite friendly with Patel, including via a ‘Russia-linked production company’ that evidently previously paid Patel $25,000 to appear in an anti-FBI TV series.”

It was literally just to prove that he was in the Atlanta area within a 24-48 hour timeframe. That's it. That's all Schmitt needed to weave his Deep State conspiracy theory about Jack Smith making a secret trip to visit Fani Willis and collude with her on jailing Trump and his allies.

Also, what was the alleged link between the Hawks game and Willis? Was she there?? Or was the allegation that he went to see a game in Atlanta so it must have been a secret meeting with Willis? I’m so confused on the evidentiary logic

Multibillion-dollar schemes like A7 are much easier when the United States simply gives up on countering Russian sanctions evasion. The Kremlin agent gloating in this story could show a bit more humility. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/24/b...

During the Biden administration, the Treasury Department made cracking down on sanctions evasion a centerpiece of its effort to punish Russia. The department imposed thousands of additional sanctions, targeting companies and networks designed to move money around financial restrictions.

The pressure has largely disappeared. Since President Trump returned to office, the administration has removed more restrictions than it has added, according to a Times analysis of Treasury data.

That has made it harder for banks to screen for illicit activity, in part because new actors and organizations can spring up without fresh information. A7 shell companies, for example, have facilitated payments to companies that banked at major American and European banks, The Times found.

"Report" me for what, exactly? Save your breath, scumbag. Sorry you hate the First Amendment so much. Her identity is obviously newsworthy at this point, and I will take extreme pleasure in reporting it. (Not "doxing" -- that's a total canard)
