Giuliani LOSES defamation lawsuit from two Georgia election workers
CNN —
A federal judge has determined Rudy Giuliani forfeits the defamation lawsuit from two Georgia election workers against him, a decision that could lead to significant penalties for Donald Trump's attorney.
Giuliani lost the case because he struggled to maintain access to his electronic records, partly because of the cost, and couldn’t adequately respond to subpoenas from attorneys for Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss as the case moved forward.

Oil prices hit 10-month high after Libya flood catastrophe
New York CNN — Global oil prices climbed above $92 a barrel on Tuesday for the first time in nearly 10 months as the energy market braces for supply disruptions caused by catastrophic flooding in Libya.
*Which means the resulting rise in pump prices (and thus inflation) will be blamed on Joe Biden, by the MAGA-morons across the country.

The mother and daughter are asking for unspecified damages after they say they suffered emotional and reputational harm, as well as having their safety put in danger, after Giuliani singled them out when he made false claims of ballot tampering in Georgia after the 2020 election.
A trial to determine the amount of damages for which Giuliani will be held liable will be set for later this year.

New testimony from a number of FBI and Internal Revenue Service officials casts doubt on key claims from an IRS whistleblower who alleges there was political interference in the federal investigation of Hunter Biden’s taxes.
According to transcripts provided to CNN, several FBI and IRS officials brought in for closed-door testimony by House Republicans in recent days said they don’t remember US Attorney David Weiss saying that he lacked the authority to decide whether to bring charges against the president’s son, or that Weiss said he had been denied a request for special counsel status.

Unlike Pelosi who achieves landmark legislations despite slim support, McCarthy is a weak leader unable to police extremists. Senator McConnell warns House republicans that government shutdown would harm republican party. Shutdowns never produce lasting policy changes. But MAGA republicans prefer non-functioning government to one that deliver wins for democrats and US. Shutdowns seem to occur only when republicans gain control of one of the branches of congress. In the future, voters have a chance to make corrections.

NEW YORK (AP) — A judge ruled Tuesday that Donald Trump committed fraud for years while building the real estate empire that catapulted him to fame and the White House, and he ordered some of the former president's companies removed from his control and dissolved.
Judge Arthur Engoron, ruling in a civil lawsuit brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, found that Trump and his company deceived banks, insurers and others by massively overvaluing his assets and exaggerating his net worth on paperwork used in making deals and securing loans.

1.3 million US service members and their families brace for no pay because of the Republican Shutdown
CNN -
For 1.3 million active-duty troops, the paycheck received Friday could be their last until government funding is passed, though they will continue to go to work.
Army spouse, Joanna Nicoletti, told CNN Friday: “We have childcare costs, we have student loans, we have bills to pay, we have mortgages to pay — where is that money going to come from?”

Meanwhile House hardline republicans can still collect pay despite causing pointless government shutdown. Hypocritical of them to weaponize government and dishonorable to violate McCarthy deal to avoid debt default made just months ago.

I use to think Trump was the cause of what’s happened to the GOP! But if you step back and look at their complete body of elected members this is not the case. What obvious to me now that Trump is a born into wealth unpolished slub that has no control of what comes out of his mouth which makes him a fabulous barometer of public opinion for the Republican Party with no chance of push back because he said it not them! Regardless of how bazaar he behaves Republicans depending on the public’s take either agree or Just blow it off or Its being taken out of context or They didn’t hear that! But in reality Republicans and the base voters has grown and are the same if not worse, their policies are the same, their love of power over country is the same. No Trump didn’t “corrupt” them, he simply stripped away the veneer the party was hiding behind ….And he comes with no cost. Of money or No direct plausibility and millions of new voters that didn’t vote ! Just you look back to 2020 when Trump received the 2nd most votes of any candidate for POTUS in our entire history. It was the second highest turnout election in the US in the last 100 years, with only 1960 having a higher turnout. On the Republican side those new voters were mostly people who didn’t vote for the likes of Bush, Romney, or McCain because they weren’t Trumpy enough. Those voters want a simple-minded leader who is bigoted and will try to “own the progressives & liberals. JMHO

In 335-91 house vote, 209 democrats join 126 republicans in passing stopgap bill to avert government shutdown. Bill doesn't include Ukraine aid or border policy changes. Currently, there is still Ukraine aid in the pipeline for another 45 days. Perhaps, future aid could be attached to a different bill later on. Now McCarthy might be at greater risk of losing job as speaker.
