  1. Now I really want   to know  what's in the secret service text messages. From HC-R:

    Like every other branch of government, the Secret Service is required to preserve its records. Today, the chief records officer of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA), Laurence Brewer, sent a letter to Damian Kokinda, the records officer of the Department of Homeland Security, about “the potential unauthorized deletion” of the texts. Brewer asked the Secret Service to investigate and to send all information about deleted records to NARA within 30 days. 

    While this seems a bit like locking the door after the horse has left the barn, let me just say that no one with any brains at all messes with archivists. That Secret Service members were willing to purge texts that they knew by law they had to preserve suggests that they calculated it would be better to face the fallout for deleting the texts than the fallout from whatever was in those texts. 

    1. It is unbelievably hard to truly delete every copy of digital content that has been transmitted. If those messages are truly gone, that would have required either purposely going to extra effort to avoid any kind of backup or retention or someone who fully understood all the places the messages were retained and clearing every one of them.

  2. Steve Bannon started his criminal contempt trial by trying to play games ( was he “ignoring” or “negotiating with” the committee when it subpoenaed him to teatify about January 6?) and trying to generate soundbites for his podcast. 
     

    He is an evil man , and I hope he gets substantial prison time for at least one of his many crimes.

  3. Well, ol' TeePee keeps herself in the local news, and as usual not in a good way:

    Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters is trying to circumvent state election officials by getting individual clerks in "selected" counties to coordinate an already rejected recount of her primary election loss for the GOP nomination for secretary of state, possibly violating the conditions of her bond in the process…because Peters is barred from having any contact with that office (Mesa County Elections) as part of her bond conditions over a 13-count criminal indictment for tampering with election equipment, identity theft and misconduct in office.

    1. Tell that to people who are living with the dirty, radioactive legacy of uranium mines and mills around the country including here in Colorado. People whose properties were placed in a Superfund site in the early '80's who cannot use their private water wells and are still waiting for a full cleanup. I could go on . . . 

      1. What about the results of removing mountaintops for coal mining. Or flaming water due to fracking. Or the ecological damage from dams creating giant lakes for hydro power.

        All energy sources have a negative impact on the environment. But the impact of nuclear is, in total, even aside from minimal CO2 emissions, a LOT less than oil & gas.

  4. Rep. LaBo…babbling on, spewing ignorance like a nonsense-sauce blender with no lid on.

     

    The answer is, of course, that anyone with a uterus can get pregnant, and possibly need to not remain pregnant for the usual reasons: health, economics, simple survival. 
    Half of people in “The LGBTQ community” can become pregnant. This group includes a spectrum of gender identities and labels.
