Trump Aborts Interview after Smart Black Women Ask Tough Questions - emptywheel
I'm not convinced that Trump's latest stunt to claim the media spotlight -- truly atrocious behavior at the National Association for Black Journalists conference -- will be any different than all the other things Trump has succeeded in commanding the media's attention without ever paying a price for his own racism.
Before things got exciting today I wrote a post on how to fact check Trump's lies about his stolen documents case.

Someone in USG has gotten REALLY good cyber journalists to claim that Vladislav Klyushin--who got swapped back to RU today--is a hacker. He's not. His hacker is one of the guys accused of hacking John Podesta.

By the measure of evidence submitted in the trial of his co-conspirator, alleged John Podesta hacker Ivan Ermakov has been enjoying life in the years after his indictment by Robert Mueller. But the record of those exploits helped to convict his Vladislav Klyushin in a hack-and-trade conspiracy.

Jack Smith probably asked for a delay of the status report on Trump's January 6 case to figure out how to approach the two obstruction charges against him in light of SCOTUS' ruling on Fischer. But a delay until August 30 allows for the possibility Jack Smith might supersede Trump's indictment.

The Trump Hack Could Extend Far Beyond a Hack-and-Leak - emptywheel
The question of how to approach this news that Iran hacked Trump's campaign goes well beyond the question of whether to publish the documents allegedly stolen. In significant part because Trump refuses to firewall his political life from his criminal life, hacks by Iran could create real damage to the United States far beyond what they do to Trump's campaign.
