(1)Waddayado when a judge breaks law with a purposeful stall? Whine about it? Judge Cannon is clearly showing favoritism in MarALago case. Is there no recourse? Ex-US Attorney: Cannon has ‘no intention’ of letting Trump go to trial. #IaCaucus #IAPolitics share.newsbreak.com/5whf5wzw(2) Federal Judicial Ethics law: A. A judge should be faithful to, and maintain professional competence in, the law and should not be swayed by partisan interests, public clamor, or fear of criticism.

Why do I agree w/ #CharlieMunger? Crypto supply isn't regulated by govt. How much of our inflation bubble was caused by massive unregulated infusion of weird M2 infusions of bitcoin into the economy? And how much recession fear is from an unregulated bust? fortune.com/2023/02/02/ban…#M2= Money in circulation on Federal Reserve statistical tables. The Federal Reserve uses the indicator to control of the supply of money. #Crypto wreaks havoc with the reliability of this number. On the front end, it created explosive growth that helped trigger inflation. (2)

Big #Covid19 outbreak at #MtPleasant#stateprison. 170+ inmates tested positive in sweep. Bumped #HenryCounty#Covid rate form 5% to 16.4%. But no impact on in-school learning at local schools thanks to #CovidKim's ruling that prison staff& families don't get covid. #iapolitics
What's #CovidKim's rationale for not including #prison & #packingplant#Covid19 cases in school opening calcs? Cuz active tracking would quickly identify cases & quarantine cases from the sites. So why didn't #IaGov establish the program? Needed 5K trackers. Now? 300. #IaPolitics

1)12 days B4 @NYT reported #Russia paid #Taliban a bounty to kill US troops, the nation's top military intelligence analyst, #AnthonySchilella, put a bullet in his head. Did he leak to NYT on #Trump's refusal to act? It would have gone thru him. @JoeBideninterc.pt/3job9Id2) So now we have a bizarre #Putin-Like mystery on our hands. What reverberation or fear of retaliation would have set off #Schinella's suicide? Weeks from retirement . . . Was he placed in the impossible position of sticking with the truths he knew to be or lying?
Protest for #Navalny in #Siberia. Attempted poisoning of #Navalny augments anger over the jailing of a popular local governor on trumped up charges. Will the Siberia Navalny protests spread to #Moscow, or is fear of death already the object lesson? #KGB#Putin#NATO#Belarus
1) Coverage of the protests by #Belarus's largest TV station. As U can see, #Lukashenko has lost control of at least part of the media & no one seems to be stopping them. Earlier in the week it was reported that some #Belarus military units were also in the protest. #Putin#NATO
1) Disturbing to me in #Mueller indictments was allegation of #Russia plant of #IaCaucus#Fraud stories. That broke the back of the party in #Iowa 4 2016 cycle. Caused mass party switches to independent in some parts of #IA. Remember #DemExit? #TrumpRussia#IaPolitics#IaDem
When #DemExit on #twitter & #FB was ongoing, I had a face2face discussion in #Fairfield of voter registration changes at the #JeffersonCounty court house. There were quite a few -- a direct consequence of #Bernie people being angry cuz they had seen SM fraud stories. #IaPolitics
