    They Want To Repeal The 19th Amendment

    The testimony in that case has covered her marriage, her care, and what she was experiencing before the killings, including perinatal and postpartum mental illness. A lot of women recognized pieces of their own experience in it and said so publicly. Hawk's point is the distinction being deliberately collapsed. Empathy for what someone went through is not approval of what they did, and he has not seen a single person express the latter. He draws on his own experience of posting about hard things and reading the responses, where the value is finding out you are not the only one. Then the arithmetic. Roughly 153 million people voted last November, women at a higher rate than men. The proposal on the table would strip the vote from well over 100 million Americans.

    Oh, Hey Melania - LOL

    The letters themselves are extraordinary. Pride and Prejudice references, apologies for losing focus, a line about him being her guardian and protector. Alongside them is the earlier reporting that Harp spent her first year in the White House without a security clearance while sitting beside the president for twelve or more hours a day, with world leaders routing messages through her. Melania Trump made a public appearance the same day, her first in some time. Hawk does not think that is a coincidence. Also in here: TMZ footage of Mitch McConnell on the Senate floor ten days before his hospitalization, and nine weeks without a public appearance since. Trump sitting for an interview on Michael Cohen's podcast, with George Conway's reaction. And the Cook Political Report on eight Republican Senate seats now in play.

    Midterm Nightmare Scenario - One Republican Says We're Not Devious Enough To Guess What's Coming

    The quotes from Republican officials are the ones that land. One said they are not devious enough to anticipate what is coming. Another warned about what replaces the ballot when confidence in it collapses. Hawk walks through 2020 footage from Phoenix, Detroit, and Philadelphia, plus the Fulton County ballot seizure and why the statute of limitations makes that warrant hard to explain. His argument stays the same. Almost everything that led to January 6th happened after election day, and the officials who refused then are gone.

    Eric Swalwell Had a Bad Day Today - The FBI Searched His Home And Seized His Devices

    Hawk's interest is procedural. Two actions like that mean two warrants, which means agents went to a federal judge with an affidavit and established probable cause, both that crimes likely occurred and that evidence of them would likely be found in those specific places. That is a meaningful threshold, and it is not a finding of guilt. The open question is jurisdiction. Sexual assault is generally prosecuted by states. Federal involvement usually points to something crossing state lines, and the reporting so far does not explain which theory applies here. Hawk also notes the timing and the current posture of the Justice Department, which is worth holding in mind either way.

    Bad News for MAGA: A 38 Point Swing With White Working Class Voters

    The main event is Kash Patel's defamation suit against The Atlantic and reporter Sarah Fitzpatrick. Joyce Vance laid out on her Substack why it goes badly for him regardless of outcome. Dismissal ends it. Survival opens discovery, and Patel filed, which means he answers document requests, interrogatories, and requests for admission, then sits for a deposition, along with however many FBI personnel The Atlantic wants. Fitzpatrick reported the story with 24 sources across the Bureau and the executive branch. Those incidents would generate records. The Atlantic has already asked the FBI and DOJ for documents and communications, and Patel's own defense depends on them. Judge Emmet Sullivan has the motion to dismiss. It is Patel's fifth suit against the media.

    Good News About The Midterms: This Looks Better Than The Data Looked In 2018

    The Downballot ran the numbers on 110 special elections since January 2025. Democrats are outrunning Kamala Harris's 2024 margins by 12.5 points on average and Joe Biden's 2020 numbers by 8.4. That implies a roughly 12 point environment in House and Senate races, slightly better than what the same measure showed heading into 2018, when Democrats gained 40 House seats. Brandon Dukes just flipped Pennsylvania's 12th, the 31st legislative flip of the cycle. Democrats have won every one. Ron Brownstein's piece for CNN gets at the other half. The risk to Republicans is subtraction rather than addition: low propensity Trump voters who turn out only when his name is on the ballot, and it will not be on one again. Meanwhile Democratic primary turnout is hitting numbers not seen in decades. Nearly 800,000 in Wisconsin, 1.5 million in Michigan, surges in Texas and Georgia. In Alaska's primary, Mary Peltola outpolled Dan Sullivan by four points. James Talarico's numbers in Texas are worth a look too.

    Jared Moskowitz Suggested Denying DSA Members of Congress Security Clearances

    These are candidates who won Democratic primaries. Eight or ten of them now, several against sitting incumbents. Angie Nixon is running the same play everywhere it works: populism and affordability, gas and groceries and rent and utility bills. Hawk's read is that elected Democrats spent fifteen or twenty years answering to donors, AIPAC, and the DNC instead of their own voters, and this is what that produces. Hasan Piker, who Moskowitz named directly, responded by suggesting he log off and focus on beating the Republican. Hawk lays out Moskowitz's actual record on Israel and Iran, including opposing conditions on military aid and dismissing a war powers resolution. And then the part nobody wants to hold at once: Moskowitz is still the only Democrat likely to win a Trump plus nine seat, and Democrats need the House.

    A Judge Just Ordered Ten Years Of Sealed Maxwell Documents Unsealed

    The background matters. Judge Sweet's 2016 protective order let the attorneys themselves designate documents confidential, with no judicial review unless the other side objected. Dozens of filings went under seal on that basis and stayed there after the 2017 settlement. Maxwell was deposed twice in 2016, and prosecutors later charged her with perjury over that testimony. Preska's holding is that the Epstein Files Transparency Act controls. A federal statute can override grand jury secrecy under Rule 6(e). It does not violate separation of powers or due process. Maxwell raised seven objections and the court rejected the lot. What comes out is the material Giuffre's attorneys produced to the government under grand jury subpoena, subject to redaction obligations. The parties and the Miami Herald have until August 28th to propose next steps. Civil discovery is broader than criminal. There is likely a great deal here nobody has seen.
