This is a guy who wrote a letter to the mullahs in Iran, undermining Barack Obama's foreign policy, when he was in the Senate for about 11 minutes. https://t.co/bZofAXSsEd

Melanie vs. Melania
I forget who said it, but one of the Trump people said in his book (Michael Cohen, maybe) that they really did use a body double for Melania:

Performs outrage because he doesn’t know how to handle the questions:

Barr is too embarrassed to go to court
With this bullshit claim:
DOJ chose *not to argue the case* and forfeit the arguments in its reply brief rather than argue the case and get the benefit of its reply brief (for reference, the reply brief is ~15 pages, and the opening brief is 5 pages, with only 2 pages of argument). https://t.co/gw7qFkp3RD

#BREAKING: FBI delivered a major message on their findings regarding 2020 election security, alleged interference by foreign powers. “These emails are meant to intimidate and undermine American voters’ confidence in our elections.” Details: https://t.co/yBXvS55yUi

John Ratcliffe would like you to know that Iran sent out bogus e-mails from the Proud Boys to damage the incumbent president* by fooling people into thinking the president* is sympatico with white supremacists.

GENIUS!!!!!
Dear @DNI_Ratcliffe: Did you even review the emails that @DHSgov officials say Iran sent? Those emails intimidate DEMOCRATS and warn them to vote for Trump. That hurts @JoeBiden. So is there another email you are referring to, or are you misleading the American people? https://t.co/Z42at3xd7G

What’s he hiding?
The Associated Press, while investigating how Trump plowed through a billion dollars during the campaign, found this interesting detail: A web of limited liability companies hid more than $310 million in spending from disclosure, records show.https://t.co/PzK64wS85O

But they just didn’t have the time for a stimulus package!
The Senate is on track with a rare weekend session to confirm Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court by next Monday. Democrats decry the rush, but don't have the votes to block the installation of President Trump's pick before Election Day. https://t.co/YVV8uXHsRl

DOJ files antitrust suit against Google
And it’s about damned time. I can’t tell you what their ad monopolies have done to strangle online sites:
The Justice Department has filed an antitrust lawsuit against Google for allegedly abusing its power and dominance over smaller rivals.

It is the most significant action the federal government has taken against a tech company in two decades.https://t.co/WZvAfxjQ0u

This DOJ case mirrors the one that the Russians did in 2014, and Russia is the only country in the world that has actually broken Google's monopoly and has a competitive search market. https://t.co/tc2XcygVQM

Breaking: New NYT Trump taxes report.

Trump's tax records show that Trump maintains a previously unknown bank account in China. The foreign accounts do not show up on Trump's public financial disclosures because they are held under corporate names. https://t.co/kU18ggxrDs
