Daylight..

 

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre saying there's no "daylight" between President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, arguing the comment reflects that "Kamala owns the border crisis" and other issues throttling the country.
"Thank you @PressSec for confirming: there is ‘no daylight’ between Kamala and Joe! Kamala owns the border crisis. Kamala owns inflation. Kamala owns the wars, chaos, and crime over the past 4 years," Trump campaign national press secretary Karoline Leavitt posted to X on Monday afternoon showing a clip of Jean-Pierre.
Leavitt was responding to Jean-Pierre saying Monday during the White House press briefing that Biden and Harris have been "aligned" throughout the administration and that there's no "daylight" between the pair.
We're screwed..... maybe. Hopefully not. Just a thought.

Threat..

 

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's recent threat to invade Israel should not be taken lightly and betrays Ankara’s continued regional ambitions , according to an official from Cyprus.

History itself has proven this, respect for international law is fundamental, and it goes without saying that all of us should be strongly committed to it," Letymbiotis said. "Unfortunately, as a country, we have been experiencing for the last 50 years a continuous ongoing increase in illegal occupation of 37% of the Republic of Cyprus territory by Turkey."

Is there a parallel to the occupation of Gaza, the West Bank, and the Goland heights?

Hush..

 

Judge delays sentencing in Trump's hush money case following Supreme Court's immunity ruling

Judge Juan Merchan has agreed to delay the sentencing hearing in former President Trump's hush money case until Sept. 18. The hearing was originally scheduled for July. Hussssssssssh.

Napping..

 


University College London researchers have found that regular napping can benefit brain health and potentially delay aging by three to six years.                                                                                                                                                                                                   The study showed that individuals who napped had brains that were 15 cubic centimeters larger than those who don't nap. The researchers recommend keeping naps to less than half an hour which is the optimal rest time during the day. Napping is believed to compensate for insufficient sleep and help prevent dementia.                                                                                                                                                                           It protects against neurodegeneration by reducing inflammation and improving brain cell connections. While further research is needed, these findings highlight the potential benefits of napping for overall brain health.

Implode..

 

Inspector..


Ex-UN weapons inspector Scott Ritter’s home in upstate New York was raided by the FBI as part of a federal investigation officials said.

Ritter, a convicted sex offender, told reporters outside his Delmar home after the raid that the warrant focused on potential violations of the Foreign Agents Registration Act, the Times Union reported .

Ritter was found guilty in 2011 of having an explicit online chat with a detective who pretended to be a 15-year-old girl. He spent around two and a half years in prison.

He was also twice accused in 2001 of having pervy contact with teenage girls, including arranging a sex rendezvous at Burger King with someone he believed was a 16-year-old girl – a case in which his charges were dismissed.

Enforce..

 

Law .

 

supreme Court Associate Justice Neil Gorsuch is worried about the explosion of laws in America.

In his new book, "Over Ruled: The Human Toll of Too Much Law," co-written with Janie Nitze, he says that when reflecting on all his years as a judge, he realized "that I had seen many, so many, cases where the sheer volume and complexity of our laws had swallowed up ordinary people."

But "too much law" can put those exact freedoms "at risk and even undermine respect for law itself," says the Supreme Court justice.

The new book, published on August 6 and already a bestseller on Amazon, is a collection of stories of real people who have gotten caught, simply by living their lives and going about their business, in the chaos and confusion of "too much law."

Delaaaaaayed..


District Judge Tanya Chutkan approved a request Friday from special counsel Jack Smith to delay the next steps in the government’s election interference case against former President Trump.

Smith cited deliberations over how to factor in the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling between the government and Trump’s representation. This comes after Chutkan asked both sides to prepare a joint status report, which was originally due Friday.

“Although those consultations are well underway, the Government has not finalized its position on the most appropriate schedule for the parties to brief issues related to the decision,” the special counsel’s office said. “The Government therefore respectfully requests additional time to provide the Court with an informed proposal regarding the schedule for pretrial proceedings moving forward. The defense does not object to the Government’s request for an extension.”
