Bite me, Musk.

Progressive political commentator (print, radio, podcasts) for years. I post a lot: breaking news + legit info you can use, prone to snark. My mini Australian Labradoodle, Hamilton, has trained me well.

Now where's my trough of wine? 🍷🇺🇸🇨🇦

Via Scott MacFarlane 1/...

ALERT: Former advisor Peter files emergency motion to get his prison sentenced reduced (for release)

Defense argues: "Dr. Navarro’s term of imprisonment has been marred by the same political turmoil that gave rise to his prosecution.. "

"He has been denied the opportunity to speak both with the press as well as a with Member of Congress"

Here it is:

2/ MacFarlane:

Peter Navarro's new motion (more): "On a more personal note, defense counsel has been denied the request to visit Dr. Navarro unless they agree to do so on the weekend. Pertinent to the instant motion, upon information and belief, Dr. Navarro is the only prisoner at his facility serving a misdemeanor sentence and the only prisoner not now eligible for early release under the First Step Act of 2018"

3/ MacFarlane:

Navarro is imprisoned at the federal facility in Miami

Note that his emergency motion references Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) multiple times. His projected release date is July 17

He was convicted by jury of contempt of Congress, for defying House Jan 6 Select Cmte

McB:

...At 2:14 p.m., Trump walks in, entourage in tow.

Boris Epshteyn just handed a piece of paper with a photo on it to Kaitlan Collins.

I thought he maybe said "Conway" to her, but I'm not exactly sure.

1/… Bower:

Trump enters the courtroom. Before arriving, he lingered for a moment in the doorway, talking to his lawyers, Emile Bove and Todd Blanche. He had a piece of paper in his hand, which he waved around as he spoke.

Wait for it….
