Billions of dollars’ worth of contracts predicting oil would fall and the S&P 500 would rise were placed about 15 minutes before Trump announced a U-turn on Iran in a post on Truth Social. CFTC staff began to investigate...then were told to lay off. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

CFTC Staff Were Told to Retract Analysis of Suspicious Oil Trades

Chairman’s adviser intervened to take over examination of lucrative bets that were made around Trump reversal on Iran power plant attack.

Somehow not everyone is aware of fact alluded to below. So one more time: John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett were all on GWBush 2000 'Florida Recount' team. (Which made GWB first prez in 112 yrs to 'win' after losing popular vote. Now they 'impartially' rule on our future.)

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.

Not only is this system astonishingly untested, USPS has simultaneously implemented an
impracticable zero percent failure rate.
13 When ballots are submitted to USPS in large-volume
batches, if any one ballot in the batch cannot be verified against the Portal, all ballots in that
batch will be rejected. For example, if a state election official brings a batch of 10,000 ballots to
USPS and USPS is unable to match just one of those ballots against the Portal – because, for
example, someone has recently changed their name after marriage or they’ve moved – then
USPS would refuse to mail the remaining 9,999 ballots as well. As the whistleblower notes,

The attorney general offered to call off an immigration operation in Minnesota if the governor handed over the voter rolls plus the names and addresses of everyone on Medicaid and SNAP. Justice has demanded voter files from forty eight states. Early voting starts in four weeks.

The Constitution's right to jury trial has been practically eroded by overbearing plea bargaining, but a new Supreme Court opinion holds out hope, especially a concurrence across ideological lines by Justices Gorsuch, Sotomayor, and Jackson. [Matthew Cavedon [Cato], Checks and Balances]

The Founders Fought for Jury Trials. We Bargain Them Away.

Today, about 95% of convictions come from plea bargains rather than jury trials.

Morning everyone. Do you know that your President just exempted himself, his family, and all his family's companies from our tax laws? You are subject to the law. Now he is not. No one should not pretend this is okay or normal. It's an ongoing constitutional crisis.

Again this should inspire wall-to-wall media coverage for months. The crowning achievement of the Civil Rights Movement is dead. Black people just lost all of their remaining political power in the South. This is a monumental moment in American history that simply isn't being treated as such.

He didn't just order the cutting of ties between the Dept of Defense and Anthropic. He designated them a national security risk for refusing to submit to Hegseth's absolute authority and barred any other contracter from doing business with the company. This is fascism!

Later in the same post, Hegseth stated: " I am directing the Department of War to designate Anthropic a Supply-Chain Risk to National Security. Effective immediately, no contractor, supplier, or partner that does business with the United States military may conduct any commercial activity with Anthropic."
