Not really a dog. Sometimes really a lawyer.

Elections seem like a bad way to get capable judges.

This letter seems to reveal (in addition to other shenanigans at DoJ) a startling lack of self-awareness on her part.

JUST NOW: A confused, clearly not-there McConnell votes “AYE” after almost voting NO with Dems but getting *corrected* by handlers around him

Absolutely wild that Alito’s take was “Quite obviously, when Congress allowed the postal service to make rules regarding mail carriage, that was clear authority to regulate modes of, and access to, voting.”

She just … tweeted it out.

This is … indistinguishable from a promo ad for a satirical sitcom about the presidency.

Oh, FFS. At least in The Terminator, everyone hadn’t watched The Terminator before it happened …

For a man who obviously cannot actually run, he’s doing a bang-up job outrunning the justice system.

I read that quickly, and read “fat racist” as “rat fascist”. Both work fine.

Certain it won’t be, but would be hilarious if she was using it to investigate the Dept of Interior lying about vandalism.

I know we talk about how Trump is badly misadvised by the sycophants around him, and/or is drooling from dementia, but when he was hiding in a catering van, *even he* must have had an inkling that the war wasn’t going brilliantly.

Between this and the announcement later today that McConnell is dead (spoiler alert) the GOP will beat its own record for single-day beclowning itself.

Haven’t seen the episode yet, but I’m guessing the answer is “eye-watering corruption”?

Maybe just an automated chyron every time he’s speaking which says “This is likely false.”

Blanche is a slippery weasel.

Henry George @madkinggeorge.bsky.social · 15/07/2026
Grassley asking questions about the Jack Smith investigation is just bizarre. Even Blanche has to say “I was defence counsel in that matter and it would be inappropriate for me to engage with that.” FFS.

At least Roy Cohn had a sense of style.

It’s telling that MSNow is covering the Blanche confirmation more than Fox News is.

Adam, I think you’ve got a typo. That “on” should be an “of”.

Not according to Trump, but you’re only the Washington Post, so you can’t be expected to get all the news right.

Henry George @madkinggeorge.bsky.social · 15/07/2026
Blanche is a fascinating nominee. Qualified on paper, but entirely unsuitable because of a total lack of integrity and ethics.
000
Henry George @madkinggeorge.bsky.social · 15/07/2026
Pretty grating that Grassley gave an 18-minute opening prebuttal of potential criticisms. Then diverts to Jack Smith, which has nothing to do with Blanche’s confirmation. Then Durbin engages with the Smith issue, rather than diving straight into “Why the fuck is Ghislaine Maxwell at Club Fed?”

“While it’s hard to imagine, there must be objectively worse people than me in the world, and if you don’t confirm me my boss will find them and nominate them to be Attorney-General” is a hell of a pitch.

Experts said the lack of such capabilities poses a potential risk when the president travels overseas. The White House defended the aircraft’s safety.

I mean, “dead” isn’t a status that’s likely to change.

Someone observed that you can’t take as fact anything Trump says in a press conference because he will agree with (or not rule out) any proposition put to him, no matter how wild. “Is the MoU dead?” “Would you consider using ICE facilities to lock up political enemies?” “Is your cousin a zebra?”

Trump is on the phone to Infantino right now, demanding he find him 3 goals.
