Day 1328 of my 3 day war. Ukrainians strikes on our refineries have had so little effect that most forms of fuel are now free.

California just banned employers from forcing workers to pay a debt, fee, or penalty to leave their job.

Bosses have increasingly been trapping workers with debts incurred in training and other exploitative fees.

Now that's illegal in the nation's biggest state.

NEW: Counsel for James Comey confirms that his defense team plans to file a motion challenging the lawfulness of Lindsey Halligan’s appointment as interim U.S. Attorney.

Motion will be heard and decided by an out-of-district judge.

IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF VIRGINIA
Alexandria Division
United States of America
v.
James Comey
Defendant.
Case No. 1:25CR272-MSN
NOTICE OF INTENT TO FILE MOTION ON UNLAWFUL APPOINTMENT
Please take notice that on October 20, 2025, James Comey, by counsel, will
file his motion to dismiss challenging the lawfulness of the appointment of the
United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. See, e.g., United States
v. Garcia, Crim No. 2:25-CR-00230-DGC-BNW, ECF No. 39 D. Nev. Sept. 30,
2025); United States v. Giraud, et al., Crim No. 1:24-768-MWB, ECF Nos. 144, 145
(D.N.J. Aug. 21, 2025).
The Court advised at arraignment that such motion will require designation
of and assignment to an out-of-district judge to hear and resolve that motion. See 28
U.S.C. § 292(b); Minute Order, ECF No. 19 (Oct. 8, 2025). Thus, in the interest of efficiency and to avoid any unnecessary delay in such process, Mr. Comey files the
instant Notice to formally alert the Court.
Respectfully submitted,
JAMES COMEY
By Counsel

🇺🇦 Zelensky has stripped Odesa Mayor Hennadiy Trukhanov of Ukrainian citizenship after the SBU confirmed he holds a valid Russian passport issued in 2015. Trukhanov denies it and vows to fight the decision in court. His removal effectively ends his tenure as mayor.

The newsletter from agricultural producer news site WATT Poultry is now a primary source of my anxiety. H5N1 is exploding in North American poultry. Every day, a headline like this.

But no human cases. Either there aren't any or there's no testing. Given CDC's dismantling, I can guess.

Headline: "Avian flu invades flock of nearly 2 million Washington hens"

Police in Canterbury today informed a protestor that the phrase "Israel is committing genocide in Gaza" could be considered a declaration of support for Palestine Action and therefore a terrorism offence.
