🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: Big win for @KenPaxtonTX on quorum clause case. Remedy is narrow & only strikes so-called Pregnant Workers Fairness Act but appalling blot on Dem.-controlled Congress who passed & President Biden who signed 1.7 trillion spending bill never constitutionally passed. 1/Image

2/ I think I'm one of few who continued to cover b/c I realized strength of constitutional argument & significance. (thanks @FDRLST for backing me) Here's post-argument write-up: thefederalist.com/2024/01/22/con…
@FDRLST 2/ Prior coverage here: thefederalist.com/2023/04/05/tex…
@FDRLST 5/5 And only reason Texas' win was only partial is because Court held Texas lacked standing on second aspect of challenge. But reasoning makes clear our government purported to pass law re $1.7 trillion spending bill--but there was no passage because there was no quorum.

🚨🚨🚨THREAD on latest re Smirnov: Completely at loss to understand what the hell Weiss is doing, other than CYA. There are 3 possibilities: (1) Smirnov was completely honest w/ his handler; (2) Smirnov is a foreign agent; or (3) Smirnov is a dishonest highly credible source.1/
2/ As I wrote today, if #2, which seems to by Weiss' pitch, the Delaware U.S. Attorney's office basically gave a foreign agent--a Russian one at that per Weiss' filings--3 years to feed our IC/FBI misinformation b/c of desire to protect the Bidens. thefederalist.com/2024/02/21/dav…
3/ That's horrible, but I'd suggest option #3 is even worse: that Smirnov was a highly credible source on many details, but was dishonest about other details. That scenario coincides with what FBI said when asked about Smirnov and based on his reporting going back to 2010.

🔥🔥🔥THREADETTE: Yesterday something struck me as "off," but I only now had a chance now to relisten to the testimony to confirm. Check the 5:43:38 point from @RobGouveiaEsq video below & note Fani Willis volunteering she did NOT go to college with Robin Yeartie. Why would Fani make that point in response to a question of whether she knew Yeartie? 1/
2/ ...because Yeartie testified she met Willis when she was in college. (1:00:00 mark). Note Yeartie didn't say she went to college with Willis, just that they met when she Yeartie was in college. Willis making a point that they didn't go to college together only
3/ makes sense if Willis heard Yeartie's testimony. And note at 5:37:34 point Willis never said she didn't listen to anyone's testimony, only that I told you I was in my office pacing."

THREADETTE on indictment of CHS behind 1023 implicating Bidens. 1/ storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…
2/ If allegations are correct, the CHS lied his ass off and nothing in that FD1023 should be considered related to Biden family scandal.
3/ And CHS should be prosecuted and book thrown at him hard!

THREAD: Post re $VRTX cc @matthewherper @megtirrell. Because of DS's cystic fibrosis, we started following @VertexPharma some 14 years ago. This week Vertex announced results on next gen meds for CF but also for other. Here's transcript. 1/ fool.com/earnings/call-…
3/ The results of next gen are A-MAZ-ING and sadly the analysts questions are idiotic--they don't get CF. AT. ALL. The new drug improves sweat chloride levels significantly & brings a huge % of population below diagnostic level for the disease.

THREADETTE: As @HansMahncke noted at the time, Biden's lawyers really spun the discovery as a "nothingburger" by framing it as "six items." 1/
2/ Here's my take (crediting Hans of course): thefederalist.com/2023/01/23/dis…

3/ Well I was curious how many did Great Gramps Biden have? Here's what Trump had. Image
