Pretty convincing evidence here that the Trump administration was planning to jailbreak and provide asylum for Bolsonaro -- and that Trump inadvertently revealed the plan.

And this, as the now-cliche goes, would have been a paralyzing scandal for any other administration.

Cannot overstate how, from my perch as a national-security reporter, this would have been an earth-shattering scandal in a prior era.

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."

They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

Donald Trump was asked a valid question about the Jeffrey Epstein files - if he wants them released, why was he waiting on Congress when he can release them...

Usually there's breaking news pertinent to my newsletter immediately after I publish. This time I was still editing and can actually include it!
UPDATE: Boasberg orders the parties to submit plans for the "inquiry regarding a potential contempt referral," by tomorrow, "including names of possible witnesses and dates for hearings." (ACLU's Lee Gelernt smartly suggested waiting on the mandate from the DC Circuit before issuing any orders.)

As long as we are doing Star Wars rankings again, I still don't understand why episode 3 isn't universally considered dog shit.

My personal list:

Jedi
Empire
New Hope
Last Jedi
Force Awakens
Solo

Then the rest don't matter because they're all awful.
i would push rogue one down and bring solo and the last jedi up. i’d also place attack of the clones at the bottom.
haven’t seen ROS or Solo but this seems like a pretty ball-knowing list from Pritzker, particularly if he volunteered the name “Star Wars” rather than “A New Hope”

The absolute capitulation by so many media institutions was one thing I'd have never predicted about this era.
Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

Dipshit is smashing out a car window with his gun, barrel first. Just rogue, cowboy stiff.

There were two US citizens in the car. They were apprehended and detained for “obstructing” ICE by honking their horn to let people know ICE was in the neighborhood.

Longshot but does anyone know how to contact the Google Workspace team if you don't have a Workspace account? I've been getting emails for months about a website that isn't mine.

And no, I can't log in using the same email address which is maddening.
