“Sen. Bob Menendez may plan to blame his wife for actions that led to a federal bribery case against him, a newly unsealed court filing suggests.
The senator’s legal team plans to try to show the “absence of any improper intent on Senator Menendez’s part” by “demonstrating the ways” in which his wife, Nadine Menendez, “withheld information from Sen. Menendez or otherwise led him to believe that nothing unlawful was taking place.”

I think what happened was they bribed Nadine so she would whisper in his ear in his sleep to proceed in a certain way that benefited the bribers.

Yesterday’s story was that Trump is going to lose because of the Dobbs decision.
Today’s story is that there can’t be any undecided voters with these two well-known candidates.
Can both be true, given that Trump leads in the polls in all swing states (aside from PA for the moment)?

I think the only person here that thinks Dobbs is the deciding issue in the election is Bitter.
I have yet to see ANY polling that shows that.
The election will be decided by economic issues, not abortion, which in reality affects a very small percentage of the population directly, and people who view it as their main issue on both sides are already going to vote a certain way. And even then, the number of people who view it as the main issue is small.
But “economic issues” is not just inflation and prices and wages, which favor Republicans. The Dems have “economic issues” in their favor too, mainly the significant part of the population that is government dependent and/or views the government as the big sugar daddy.

Supercharged Spying Provision Buried In “Terrifying” FISA 702 Reauthorization

The zerohedge link is worthy of a read as it goes into detail what this FISA bill would open up, regarding massively more surveillance by the government. It’s frightening to even consider.
”Through a seemingly innocuous change to the definition of “electronic communications surveillance provider,” an amendment offered by House intel committee (HPSCI) leaders and passed by the House vastly expands the universe of entities that can be compelled to assist the NSA.
If the bill becomes law, any company or individual that provides ANY service whatsoever may be forced to assist in NSA surveillance, as long as they have access to equipment on which communications are transmitted or stored—such as routers, servers, cell towers, etc. That sweeps in an enormous range of U.S. businesses that provide wifi to their customers and therefore have access to equipment on which communications transit. Barber shops, laundromats, fitness centers, hardware stores, dentist’s offices… the list goes on and on.
It also includes commercial landlords that rent out the office space where tens of millions of Americans go to work every day—offices of journalists, lawyers, nonprofits, financial advisors, health care providers, and more.”
The reach of the bill even includes service providers going into homes to do work. They would be compelled to work with the government without telling an individual they were doing so because of an automatic gag order. It all seems ultra Orwellian.

I am not a Republican but I certainly support the FISA program as an important tool against terrorism.
If you think about it, terrorism in itself restricts a lot of liberties. Just think of all the restrictions we have on travel because of 9/11 and all the federal bureaucracy that resulted from it. If another 9/11 can be avoided and the tradeoff is that some US citizen gets monitored because he is talking with a foreign terrorist I can live with the “decreased privacy protections”.
It doesn’t mean I support the obvious abuses that were made but you don’t throw out the baby with the bathwater.
