I read the indictment. He hired the Gloria Allred of left wing political celebrities, Abe Lowell. But this guy didn’t get Hunter Biden off and he basically screwed Biden by pushing the envelope too far on the sweetheart deal he had gotten.
In his note, Lowell already admits “sharing with family members”, but of course there is no such “exception” for classified information.
The indictment seems to have teeth in it, assuming what is said is true. And Bolton, who loves his own voice and can’t resist the calling of the MSM, said a bunch of crap related to the Hegseth Signal issue where he basically condemns everything he now tries to use to justify his actions. It completely wipes out any defense that he was “unaware” he was violating the law.

In the Miyares-Jones public debate last night, Miyares did a masterful job of exposing the fraud of Jones with his apology. Jones started right out apologizing again, and then Miyares pounced:
“And right now you may say that you are sorry, but look at back at what happened,” Miyares said.
“You had three years to say you are sorry, Jay, and you didn’t. Three years to actually recognize what you did was horrific. You chose to stay silent.”
Miyares continued, “Carrie Coyner called you out then, you doubled down. It was after she called you out for these text messages that that is when you said you advocated for violence against children. And when this became public, we now know your first statement wasn’t saying ‘I’m sorry.’ The words ‘I’m sorry’ wasn’t even in your statement. It was to say we all send text messages we regret.”
He added that Jones’s comments were especially troubling given the position he is seeking.
“I find it a little bit stunning that today you say one of the pillars of your public safety platform is protecting children. Were you protecting Jennifer’s children when you said you wanted to see them die in their mother’s arms?” Miyares said, referring to Gilbert’s wife.
“It’s unconscionable, and if you were truly ‘sorry,’ you would not be running for this office — because you disqualified yourself.”
“He keeps saying that he is sorry. Jay, if you’re really sorry, you wouldn’t be running,” Miyares said.
“If you really understood the ramifications of what you said about an innocent mom and her children. You know Todd Gilbert. You served with him. Jennifer would come to the General Assembly. She would bring her children. We would see them run in the hallways. They were two and five years old at the time. This wasn’t a hypothetical. This wasn’t some figure that you know from far away. You actually know Todd. This is a flesh and blood, real husband. Jennifer is a real mom. These are real kids.”
“How in the world could you ever show compassion and comfort a grieving mother that has ever lost a child of violence, because Virginians, there is no cry, like the cry of a mother that has lost her child. A prosecutor knows this because they’ve stood in that courtroom. Jay Jones had never understood this because he’s not a prosecutor, he’s a politician trying to save his career,” Miyares said.

“Donald Trump has been crowned the ‘Peace President’ by American voters after brokering a historic Middle East deal that secured the release of Israeli hostages and negotiated a delicate ceasefire between bitter enemies.
Trump promised a ‘new dawn’ and the ‘end of an age of terror and death’ as his 20-point peace plan was signed in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt to mark the end of the two-year Gaza war.
The accord has reunited families torn apart by the October 7, 2023, Hamas terror attack and is being hailed as one of the most significant breakthroughs in decades, even as questions linger over how long the truce will last.
A new Daily Mail/JL Partners poll shows that voters at home are giving Trump the credit – and see him as the architect of a lasting peace where others failed.
When asked which president had done the most for the Middle East, Trump received more votes than his four White House predecessors combined.
Voters also gave Trump a 51 percent approval rating, a drop from the astonishing 55 percent in a Daily Mail poll from September. “

Absolutely none of the maritime experts I interviewed early this week thought the US could pull this off. Zero.

“During last year’s presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, Trump said violent crime was rising. ABC moderator David Muir immediately fact-checked him, claiming, “President Trump, as you know, the FBI says overall violent crime is coming down in this country…”
Nearly every major media outlet echoed that narrative. National Public Radio ran the headline, “Violent crime is dropping fast in the U.S. – even if Americans don’t believe it.” The Wall Street Journal declared, “Violent Crime Rate Falls Sharply After Pandemic Surge.” Vox insisted, “Violent crime is plummeting.” Axios reported, “New data shows violent crime dropping sharply in major U.S. cities.”
However, a new Bureau of Justice Statistics report, which includes data through 2024, shows that Trump was right during the debate when he said, “Crime here is up and through the roof.” The National Crime Victimization Survey shows violent crime surged 59%, with rape and sexual assault up 67%, robbery up 38%, and aggravated assault up 62%. That’s the largest four-year increase in the survey’s 52-year history.”

As far as betting odds, this could be one of the biggest upsets ever if the Dodgers lose the World Series. It would rival Pats-Rams in 2002.

Ok I am watching the game.
Saw the 3rd HR and video of the one over the roof. Impressive.

When did the Dodgers start playing in LA? I thought they were in Brooklyn.

They have now won 23 pennants as the Dodgers — 14 in LA and 9 in Brooklyn. They also won three before 1900 — one as the Bridegrooms and two as the Superbas.

Great write up revealing how the democrats no kings movement is entirely funded and propped up by democrat billionaire royalty –
“The Democratic Party’s dark-money NGO network, bankrolled by left-wing billionaires, is reportedly preparing to activate a coordinated, color-revolution-style mobilization across the U.S. this weekend – a replay of failed agitation attempts seen earlier this year targeting President Trump and Elon Musk. The operation, marketed under the “No Kings” banner and portrayed publicly as a grassroots movement, in reality functions as a professionalized protest-industrial complex. Its composition includes a blend of paid activists, white boomers suffering from Stage 4 Trump Derangement Syndrome, and a smaller contingent of organic, unhinged leftists who recite MSNBC talking points by heart. “
