Mike Lee was well aware of the J6 “plan.” ⬇️
Kyle Cheney@kyledcheney
Mike Lee warned one of Trump’s lawyers that the Jan. 6 plan was “dangerous” for the republic. On the night of Jan. 6, he called Rudy “walking malpractice” in a text pleading with NSA O’Brien not to resign to preserve stability of government during Trump’s final weeks.

Everyone should be talking about this and the people in Mississippi found buried behind a jail. People whose families were actively looking for them.

Mississippi gave millions of dollars of welfare funds to former NFL quarterback Brett Favre to build a volleyball facility for his daughter’s school, but they won’t take federal funds to feed hungry children. Because helping poor kids is the kind of welfare that Republicans hate.

Gov. Tate Reeves’ office says Mississippi won’t participate in a federal summer food program for children because of his desire to reject “attempts to expand the welfare state” mississippitoday.org/2024/01/11/fed…

The entire party is bereft of so-called ‘moderates’ and is beyond parody.
Kaitlan Collins@kaitlancollins
Gov. Sununu — who has endorsed Nikki Haley — says he would vote for Donald Trump if he's the Republican nominee even if he’s a convicted felon.

Kevin Wallace says Trump's financial statements were false in every year from 2011 to 2021 — false by as much as $2.2 billion.
Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1
Kevin Wallace, a lawyer for the NY AG's office, says the civil fraud trial is about what the defendants knew and when they knew it: Were they acting with intent when they manipulated their financial statements, and as part of a conspiracy? The answer to both, he says, is yes.

Why does @MSNBC keep repeating the lie that there were "no victims" of Trump's business fraud in NY?
The victims were all those who filled out honest, accurate loan applications and got denied funding while the precious capital went to a con man.
NY AG James@NewYorkStateAG
Today, my office will present our closing arguments in our trial against Donald Trump for financial fraud. For years, Donald Trump engaged in significant financial fraud to enrich himself and his family. No matter how rich or powerful you pretend to be, no one is above the law.

Both candidates asked to critique the frontrunner, Trump, and each offered policy quibbles.
But no mention of January 6th; election lies; of invocation of violence; mishandling of classified docs; and 91 indictments--the mention of which they apparently deem taboo.

215 bodies were found in unmarked graves behind a jail in Mississippi. This is horrifying. The families were never notified. There should be a much bigger public reaction to this story.

Sec 3 draws a sharp line btw law and politics. The first part is a legal command about who cannot hold office that doesn’t demand action by Congress. But the second allows “Congress by a vote of 2/3 of each House” to lift a disqualification. The framers gave Congress — not POTUS or SCOTUS — power to grant a Sec 3 waiver on policy grounds:

The gap between the change in productivity and compensation is what the GOP has allowed billionaires to steal from you.
They aren't working harder or smarter than 40 years ago. You are. They're just keeping all your money.
