\nQuote – Sidney Powell is not a reliable narrator, but her point, if true, is that the purpose of the 1\/6 attack on the Capitol was to buy time so that Justice Alito could intervene and block the certification of the election.
\nClick through for actual wording<\/a>. Isn’t this … interesting.\u00a0 And then there’s this.<\/a><\/p>\n
\nQuote – This was the greatest threat to our democracy since the Civil War and we need answers. Let’s see where this goes….with the subpoenas flying fast, I suspect we will get our answers about Executive Privilege pretty quickly, especially when they start wanting to talk to Donald Trump and his kids directly.
\nClick through for what details exist.<\/a> IANAL, but those who are point out that (a) he can claim executive privilege regarding what happened during his administration, and (b) though he can claim it, it is not automatic, as some things are not subject to it, and that is not his decision to make.<\/p>\n
\nQuote – Robust growth in the liberal strongholds of New York and metropolitan Chicago are poised to give Democrats an edge as their political maps are redrawn to adjust for changes in population over the past decade. While both New York and Illinois are losing congressional seats, their urban booms mean the newly drawn districts are likely to favor Democrats, adding to the party\u2019s national total and making up for probable losses elsewhere.
\nClick through for more information<\/a>. I certainly hope this analysis is on point. (I have hopes for my state as well, but those are unrelted to this.)<\/p>\n
