From: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/trump-indictment-2020-election-b2385934.html

Prosecutors allege that Mr Trump had six co-conspirators, including five attorneys. That group of lawyers is understood to include Jeffrey Clark, a former Trump administration Justice Department official who the ex-president tried to install as acting attorney general, “Kraken” lawyer Sidney Powell, and disgraced former law professor John Eastman, who is currently facing disbarment for his role in Mr Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election.

This is the second federal indictment brought by the special counsel actually.

I assume you wouldn't need to sign up. If you already have a FB or Instagram account, you would just be able to log in directly

Ah okay. That makes more sense. And the SAE approval happened recently?

It's surprising how fast the dominos are falling ever since GM announced they will use NACS. Were these state decisions already being made recently and just happened to be announced around this time? I just find it hard to believe that state government institutions were able to meet and decide on this so quickly otherwise.

Audio ads in subway stations (lemm.ee)
 

So I am standing during rush hour today on a busy subway platform, and over the loudspeaker you hear a 10-second audio ad about the new Indiana Jones movie along with the music and everything.

I understand the MTA needs to make some revenue, but yikes this has gone a little bit too far. It's a fairly loud and disruptive. I hope this is only an experiment and not to stay.
