ERASING HISTORY: Trump’s Justice Department is now moving to erase some of the most serious January 6 convictions.
U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro has filed motions asking a federal court to vacate convictions against key members of the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers, including Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes and Proud Boys leaders like Ethan Nordean and Joseph Biggs, who were found guilty of seditious conspiracy for plotting to stop the peaceful transfer of power.
These were among the final convictions still standing after Trump issued sweeping pardons and commutations on Day One.
Now, the DOJ is attempting to wipe them away entirely, even after juries heard extensive evidence of coordinated planning, weapons stockpiles, and efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
In July, Jacksonville State Gamecocks updated their branding by discontinuing the long-used gamecock logos, typography, & Jacksonville name in favor of the Jax State moniker. The vintage "Fightin' Gamecock" logo has been officially brought back to life.

North Carolina currently has a statewide burn ban due to drought conditions.
Central NC is sitting about ~12 degrees above avg hi temp for this time of year and will climb to nearly 20 degrees over by the weekend.
Can we please start trying to fix things?
@JamesHu27192912 Girl, you don’t even go here. Get your fake ass out of here.
For people actually in the US and my fellow Tar Heels, Republicans have controlled the NCGA for a long time and are the cause of our issues.
Stop following fake accounts.
North Carolina is now being warned by Governor Josh Stein about a $2.8 BILLION budget shortfall over the next two years.
That’s not a small gap. That’s a structural problem.
And here’s the part people keep skipping over:
North Carolina has had a long run of Democratic governors —
including Roy Cooper, who is now running for U.S. Senate after serving two terms, and now Josh Stein.
So this didn’t happen overnight.
This is the result of years of decisions.
Budgets passed. Priorities set. Promises made.
Now the bill is coming due.
Here’s what that means:
• A shortfall like this forces hard choices — fast
• Spending gets cut, taxes go up, or both
• And everyday North Carolinians feel it first
Every program expansion.
Every new commitment.
Every dollar spent.
It all has to be paid for.
Now we’re looking at a $2.8 billion gap and one simple question:
Who’s going to pay for it?
And what gets cut when the money isn’t there?
This isn’t abstract.
This is your taxes. Your services. Your state.
North Carolina doesn’t have the luxury of ignoring a hole this big.
So what’s the plan?

Not only did Disney pay nothing in income taxes this year, it received a $1.428 billion tax refund after making $12 billion in profits.
"Corporations will create jobs if you give them more tax breaks" is a total scam.
‼️THE RESULTS ARE IN‼️
The results of the Big Beautiful Bill are in and they are NOT GOOD for the working class.
- Middle class earners paid an average of $900 more in federal taxes.
- The top 1% received $117b in tax cuts - annually.
- Foreign investors have saved $32b taxes.
- Corporate taxes have been slashed by $234b , or $1.7t over the course of a decade.
- The bill adds $4.7t in federal debt over the next ten years.
@TheTNHoller@RepJeffries@ShadowofEzra Ask why AIPAC would be putting that out. AIPAC putting out that ad to try to sideline a subset of voters ahead of the midterms. They know a Republican Congress to go with a Republican President is beneficial to them. Basically the know they are toxic and are weaponizing it.
A new AIPAC ad brags about giving Dems the most money and shows which Dems are in the tank for them — including @RepJeffries
(Reminder: this is also true for almost all Republicans) H/T @ShadowofEzra
Today’s the 30th anniversary of RATM’S um, ‘memorable’ performance on SNL. There was a fight onstage between our crew and SNL stage hands moments before our performance, wrestling over some upside down American flags which adorned our amps. Timmy C then attacked host/billionarie/presidential candidate Steve Forbes’ family in the dressing room with a wadded up flag. Secret Service flooded the hallways. SNL cut (censored?) our second song and kicked us out onto the sidewalk.
Evil Empire entered the Billboard Album Chart at #1.
