From MeidasTouch Legal AF: The Convicted FElon DOJ is now deleting court documents on J6 terrorists who have been in trouble with law repeatedly. The DOJ was caught when a judge noticed a document missing on a J6'er, who wanted to bomb Obama's home & was convicted for it. I bet these are ICE now.

Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, showing up at the World Series wasn’t just a surprise appearance. Turns out she’s actually related to Dodgers star Mookie Betts. From LA roots to royal lineage, that’s legacy in motion. 👑⚾

Dr. James C. Jackson of Vanderbilt University takeaway from today’s IACC Expert Panel on Long Covid and other chronic conditions:
Brain fog is not an accurate term. It needs to be referred to as brain damage.
Yup.

Adelita Grijalva now holds the record for longest delay between winng a special Congressional election and being sworn into office.
Why the delay from Mike Johnson?
Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

More than 47 million Americans — including one in five children — don’t have reliable, affordable access to nutritious food. And as the cost of living skyrockets, more families are depending on SNAP benefits, or food stamps, to put food on the table.
