Kagro in the Morning - August 8, 2023

David Waldman and his dedicated staff here at KITM World Headquarters are in the midst of a little late spring housekeeping. From now on, whenever I need to post a link to “the social media site formally known as bird”, I will try to find an identical link somewhere else... It would be nice If only we migrated to the same place! David and I are both at Mastodon (a very quiet neighborhood). I’m also at Threads, which actually would be just dandy with a desktop version. But now David is also over at the other, other billionaire’s place, Bluesky. Maybe he’ll send you and me an invite and we can check that out.

Also, I when I get paywalled links, I do hope to include a non-paywalled alternative, so that you might spend your hard-earned entertainment/educational bucks on us. Read along with Jack Smith’s Trump indictment in the NYT version, or on MSNBC’s and let KITM do the annotating!

It seems like only yesterday that David was throwing his back out lugging bags of mulch for his kid’s Boy Scout troops. The Scouts could use sandbags in South Korea as a tropical storm bears down on their Jamboree. 

Many big, huge lawyers, tears streaming down their eyes, say “Mr. Trump sir, you are the most stupid, awful client who ever existed”. These lawyers now claim that the DOJ is out to censor their bigmouthed boss and propose that everyone just lighten up a little on their gasbag dotard.

Donald’s Secret Service detail might, or might not, be ready to take a bullet for him, but could draw the line on going to prison with him.

We continue to look into the full story of the Loudoun County sexual assault case used to ignite culture wars ahead of Glenn Youngkin’s election to Governor.
