SCOOP: Alexander Smirnov, the FBI informant convicted of lying about a fake bribery scheme involving the Bidens has been quietly released from prison just months into a six-year sentence—raising concern he could be pardoned by Trump any moment. jacquelinesweet.substack.com/p/fbi-inform...

Great work by Reuters, but why didn't the Biden administration reveal this a year ago? www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

So I tried a pretty solid peanut butter and got curious when I read it's "employee owned." So I looked them up. This is probably the most impressive company "about us" page I've ever seen. And the thing about employee pay ratios? Man oh man. www.goodeggs.com/onceagainsfb...

After he got fired in 2019, John Bolton tried put a do-it-yourself SCIF in his home. No, seriously. Also, hackers called him "Mr Mustache." @notus.com: www.notus.org/courts/john-...

Deleted my John Bolton post, because even though I write emails and texts and actual news stories on my phone, it somehow autocorrected to John Boston. Increíble.

“If you’re conscious of the need to protect classified information, you’ll remember what the rules are.”’ - John Bolton on Hillary Clinton Fascinating new details here (Bolton has a SCIF in his house, for one) from the great @josepagliery.bsky.social www.notus.org/courts/john-...

Supreme Court justices of all stripes had some tough questions for the Trump administration, making pretty clear two things: 1. Tariffs are taxes 2. Congress has the power to tax, not the president www.notus.org/courts/supre...

Neal Katyal's opening volley against Trump's tariffs: "May it please the court: Tariffs are taxes."

Zohran Mamdani says on NY1 he didn't get a congratulatory call from either Andrew Cuomo or Eric Adams last night. He says he got a congratulatory call from Curtis Sliwa, though.

The New York Post is so happy they don't have to keep pretending to like Cuomo: nypost.com/2025/11/04/u...

If Democrats get to redraw Virginia's congressional map in 2026, they could target 3-4 of the state's 5 Republicans. A map like this one would likely elect a 10-1 Democratic majority next year davesredistricting.org/join/598f596...

Reupping the post that brought me a flood of "um excuse me" emails. Yes, Mamdani was going to win.

Once more, for old times’ sake

Six months ago I said Mamdani would crush everyone and some people laughed at me and now I'm drinking scotch and laughing so hard.

DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro is in for an awkward Thursday night. The DC association of former prosecutors has decided to present a prestigious award to... the Jan 6 Committee's lead investigator. @notus.com: www.notus.org/courts/jeani...

It sure seems like Judge Currie wants to closely examine Lindsey Halligan's conduct during the grand jury that indicted Jim Comey. @notus.com: www.notus.org/courts/judge...

I've covered every Trump trial and yet this one better captures the absurdism of our current age.

Defense tells judge they want to question Lairmore about 'gag gifts' he received from fellow officers after the alleged assault, including a Subway sandwich plush toy and a patch that (unless I misheard) said 'Felony Footlong.' Prosecutors object. Defense argues they reflect CBP 'state of mind.'

Overnight court filings seem to be giving us a peek at what U.S. Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino said in his deposition so far (it apparently continues today):

NEW: Venezuela recently requested military equipment, including drones, from Iran amid heightened tensions between Venezuela and the United States, according to internal US government documents obtained by The Washington Post. (1/4) Iran Update, Nov. 3, 2025: isw.pub/IranUpdate11...

ICE hasn’t updated its removal operations statistics dashboard since January. (That dashboard details arrests, detention and removals broken down by information including criminal history.) Story by @llanosjackie.bsky.social www.notus.org/immigration/...

You laugh, but this is how the exododus went extinct

Talking about security details... Alina Habba has one too. That and many other things are making the prosecutors she oversees quite uncomfortable. A look at how she's running the U.S. Attorney's office in New Jersey. @notus.com: www.notus.org/courts/alina...

The Post calls it "the Bari barrier." lol If you need security guards that cost $3.6 million a year, you might want to reconsider some things.

I just watched the video and my god

US citizen shot from behind as he warned ICE agents children would be coming to get bus, lawyers say

Hi there, and welcome to #FridayFucksorSucks, a weekly game with simple rules: guns fuck, or they suck. This week - the Eibar Ruby. Built in decentralized workshops during the Spanish Civil War they were made VERY quickly for the war effort but lacked truly standardized parts, including magazines.

Justice Kavanaugh: "and those individuals may promptly go free after making clear to the immigration officers that they are U.S. citizens or otherwise legally in the United States."

1 major qualm w/Judge Ellis raking Border Patrol Chief Bovino over the coals today - she claimed that any use of force reports from BP/ICE/CBP will be under seal, as will the names of all those arrested by the feds during Midway Blitz These are public records. The public has the right to see them
