Troy Lake Sr. owned Elite Diesel Service near Cheyenne, Wyoming. He pled guilty to removing, bypassing, or disabling emissions control systems on 344 trucks. He wasnât fixing his own car. He was paid at least $362,000. Served 7 months, not years and Trump pardoned him.

This is super important. This is a shot across the bow of the Supreme Court. The administration is preemptively taking the position that a Supreme Court ruling against the ballroom project has no force and will not be obeyed.

Platner clearly no saint, but seems noteworthy his accuser is a Republican operative who defended Kavanaugh, attacked Christine Blasey Ford, and falsely accused Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk of doing things they didnât, in defense of Israel. (which Platner is critical of)

There is no evidence Joe Biden ever âweaponizedâ his DOJ. And his DOJ prosecuted the IRS leaker. Trump twice publicly promised to release his taxes. He also repeatedly publicly attempted to âweaponizeâ his DOJ in his 1st term and then repeatedly succeeded at it in his 2nd. They just lie.

The Trump administration has teed up such a pricey 250th celebration that the cost is apparently more than the White House can chew. To foot the bill, officials are diverting roughly $90 million away from the National Parks Service.

Trump appoints a totally unqualified political hack who's shown a willingness to violate ethics rules and probably the law to go after Trump's political opponents as Acting Director of National Intelligence (Acting, so no Senate confirmation). A ludicrous appointment, but a very dangerous one.
