We know Putin is strategic, and not stupid like trump, so I'm sure he sees whatever political wind is blowing and can see the diminishing effect of his disinformation wars might be having along with seeing the strength of his republican partners weakening. Good sign.

Newly Released January 6 Tapes Expose GOP Congressman’s Dark Role 🚨🚨 The Jan. 6 security tapes have a big surprise.
Representative Mike Kelly played a key part in the events of January 6, 2021, according to new tapes.
https://newrepublic.com/post/184350/new-january-6-tapes-mike-kelly?
New security footage from the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot have revealed possible new crimes in Donald Trump’s plot to overturn the 2020 election results.
Former Trump attorney Kenneth Chesebro and a Trump campaign staffer, G. Michael Brown, were caught on camera handing fake elector documents from Washington and Michigan to aides of Republican Representative Mike Kelly of Pennsylvania on January 5.
Twitter screenshot: Jamie Dupree @jamiedupree: 🚨🚨 The Jan. 6 security tapes have a big surprise. There is video of attorney Ken Chesebro & Trump campaign aide G. Michael Brown handing off fake GOP elector documents (from Wisconsin & Michigan) to aides of Rep. Mike Kelly R-PA - on Jan. 5. 🧵

The video corroborates what Chesebro admitted in a text message on January 6: that he dropped off fake elector documents to Kelly’s aides a day prior.
The documents ultimately didn’t get to Vice President Mike Pence, who was in charge of certifying the election results, thanks to the Senate parliamentarian refusing to accept the documents from Kelly’s aides. Bizarrely, after the documents were rejected, the aides wandered the halls on the second floor of the Capitol for a half-hour, waiting for instructions.
It’s bad news for Kelly—and even worse news for Chesebro, who is already in trouble in Michigan for his involvement in the fake elector scheme in that state. Chesebro was charged with felony fraud for his efforts to overturn Wisconsin’s presidential election results in June. He was named as a co-conspirator in Georgia’s fake elector charges, where he is cooperating with the state and has pleaded guilty to planning the scheme there. He is reportedly also cooperating with prosecutors in Michigan and Wisconsin.
This new set of evidence could lead to new charges, as it apparently wasn’t previously uncovered by the House January 6 committee, according to journalist Jamie Dupree. And while Kelly’s role was known, the extent of his involvement in the fake electors plot was not. Aside from that, however, the footage shows how close Trump’s cronies got to overturning two key states’ elections, as only the Senate parliamentarian and Vice President Mike Pence stood in their way.

U.S. Navy pilot becomes first American woman to "engage and kill an air-to-air contact"
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/us-navy-pilot-first-american-woman-air-victory-houthi-drone-red-sea/?
An aviator for the United States Navy recently became the first American woman ever to score a victory in air-to-air combat, the service said. The fighter pilot, who was not identified, earned that distinction after knocking down a Houthi drone, one of dozens of attack drones launched by the Yemen-based rebel group that have targeted civilian merchant ships in the Red Sea and surrounding waters, according to the Navy. Houthis say the attacks are a direct response to the devastation in Gaza since the start of the Israel-Hamas war.
The Navy said the pilot was flying an F/A-18 Super Hornet, a military striker, during a combat deployment on the aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower that lasted nine months. She was among a group of men and women belonging to Strike Fighter Squadron 32, nicknamed the "Flying Swordsmen." The Eisenhower was the first U.S. aircraft carrier to integrate their operating crew with women aviators in 1994, according to the National Air and Space Museum.
"During one mission, VFA-32 became home to the first American female pilot to engage and kill an air-to-air contact," the Navy said.............

Kamala Harris' Approval Rating Surges as Donald Trump's Falls
https://www.newsweek.com/kamala-harris-approval-rating-trump-ipsos-1931289
Published Jul 29, 2024 at 4:28 AM EDT
Updated Jul 29, 2024 at 9:18 AM EDT
Vice President Kamala Harris has seen a significant boost in her approval ratings ever since she became the presumptive Democratic 2024 nominee, while Donald Trump's has fallen, according to a poll.
An ABC News/Ipsos survey of 1,200 adults released on Sunday showed that Harris' favorability rating stands at 43 percent, 8 points up from the 35 percent favorability rating she recorded in a previous poll conducted before President Joe Biden ended his 2024 campaign.
The number of people who hold an unfavorable view of the vice president has also fallen from 46 percent recorded in the previous poll published last week, to 42 percent in Sunday's survey.
By comparison, Trump's favorability rating has fallen 4 points between the two surveys from 40 percent to 36. The previous poll was conducted in the week after Trump was confirmed as the GOP's 2024 nominee at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee and following the assassination attempt against the former president in Pennsylvania.
The poll is the latest indication of enthusiasm behind Harris' White House bid after Biden ended his reelection campaign following weeks of pressure in the wake of his languished CNN debate performance on June 27.

Biden, 81, had already faced concerns that he was too old to run for a second term, with multiple polls suggesting voters were not enthused that the 2024 election was going to be a rematch between the president and the 78-year-old Trump.
After Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed Harris, multiple current and former Democratic figures have also backed the vice president against Trump.
Harris has also seen a surge of fundraising, with her campaign reporting it has raised more than $200 million in its first week, around two-thirds of which came from first-time donors.
Elsewhere, the ABC News/Ipsos poll shows nearly nine in 10 Democrats (88 percent) are expressing enthusiasm for Harris' campaign as well as 70 percent of Black voters.
Harris has also seen a major rise in the number of independent voters who hold a favorable view of her, up from 28 percent last week to 42 percent in the latest poll.
The poll showed that Trump's favorability rating among the potentially key independent demographic dropped from 35 percent last week to 27 percent in Sunday's survey.
When contacted for comment, Trump's communications director Steven Cheung referred to a recent Telegraph/Redfield & Wilton Strategies poll which showed Trump beating Harris in several swing states.
Harris' office has been contacted for comment via email.
After Biden ended his reelection campaign on July 21, Trump became the oldest presidential nominee in U.S. history. If Trump wins November's election, he could overtake Biden as the oldest ever sitting U.S. president during his second term.
The previous ABC News/Ipsos poll showed that 15 percent of Americans held unfavorable views of both Trump and Biden.
Now the race is likely to be between Harris and Trump, only seven percent of Americans say they dislike both candidates.
The ABC News/Ipsos poll surveyed 1,200 U.S. between July 26-27. The results have a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

SoCalGas Suddenly Shuts Down Area's Gas Service Over 'Land Movement'
https://www.newsweek.com/socalgas-shuts-rancho-palos-verdes-gas-service-land-movement-1931328
Published Jul 29, 2024 at 4:50 AM EDT
Updated Jul 29, 2024 at 4:53 AM EDT
Californian community will have its natural gas supply cut off on Monday morning, with utility company SoCalGas blaming "worsening land movement."
Gas service to 135 homes in the Portuguese Bend area of Rancho Palos Verdes, situated on the coastal outskirts of Los Angeles, will end from 9 a.m. local time, the company said.
"Due to worsening land movement, SoCalGas has determined it is unsafe to continue providing natural gas service in your community. Unfortunately, your natural gas service will be discontinued effective Monday, July 29, 2024, at approximately 9 a.m.," SoCalGas said in a service notice on July 27.
"We regret this unexpected disruption of service. This dynamic situation requires we take immediate action to protect public safety.".......................................
.....................................Land movement, also known as ground movement, refers to the shifting, sliding, or settling of the Earth's surface. Rancho Palos Verdes has several areas that are experiencing significant land movement, with various landslides recorded over the years, leading to concerns about sections potentially falling into the sea. This is particularly evident in the Portuguese Bend area, which has a long history of land instability.
Recent land movement in the area is thought to be the result of proximity to a complex of ancient landslides, accelerated by heavy rainfall during the winter, "resulting in surface water percolating into the ground and lubricating the bentonite soil condition," the city of Rancho Palos Verdes explained in an FAQ.
In May 2024, Portuguese Bend's rate of land movement had increased by 31 times compared to November 2019, with other areas of the town seeing even greater rates of increase.......................

FACT SHEET: President Biden’s Presidential Proclamation and Joint DHS-DOJ Interim Final Rule Cut Encounters at Southwest Border by 55 Percent
Release Date: July 24, 2024
https://www.dhs.gov/news/2024/07/24/fact-sheet-president-bidens-presidential-proclamation-and-joint-dhs-doj-interim
The Presidential Proclamation issued by President Biden to temporarily suspend the entry of certain noncitizens across the southern border – including the southwest land and southern coastal borders – and the complementary joint interim final rule (IFR) issued by DHS and DOJ have now been in effect for seven weeks, helping reduce the number of encounters at our Southwest Border by 55%. The Border Patrol’s 7-day average?has decreased to below 1,800 encounters per day. In June, the Border Patrol recorded 83,536 encounters between ports of entry, the lowest number since January 2021, and below the number of encounters between ports of entry in June 2019, the last comparable year prior to the pandemic.
While the President’s action has led to significant results, our nation’s immigration system requires Congressional action to provide needed resources and additional authorities. Twice now, Congress has failed to pass the bipartisan border security agreement negotiated in the U.S. Senate, which would provide the critical personnel and funding needed to further secure our Southern border. The agreement would have added 1,500 U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Agents and Officers, added 1,200 U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) personnel, 4,300 asylum officers, invested in technology to catch illegal fentanyl, and delivered sweeping reforms to the asylum system. Congress must still act.
While the Proclamation and IFR have been in effect:
DHS has removed and returned more than 65,000 individuals to more than 125 countries, including by operating more than 200 international repatriation flights.
DHS has doubled the percentage of noncitizens processed through Expedited Removal while in CBP or ICE custody. Expedited Removal processing was already at record levels prior to the Proclamation.
DHS has decreased the number of people released pending their removal proceedings by 70%.
We continue to implement recently announced measures?to increase the overall capacity of enforcement resources — including repatriation flights and detention capacity. ICE is optimizing air charter contracts to maximize the number of repatriation flights operated each week.
Over the last year, the agency has removed individuals to a range of South American and Eastern Hemisphere countries, including Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Egypt, Mauritania, Senegal, Uzbekistan, and India, and in the last few weeks, DHS conducted a removal flight to the People’s Republic of China (PRC). Efforts to expand the number of removal flights continue with the expectation of additional flights added to the schedule in the coming weeks.
Under the terms of the IFR, the limitation on asylum eligibility will be discontinued when encounters fall below certain levels but will come back into effect if encounters rise again. The Proclamation and IFR enable DHS to quickly remove those without a legal basis to remain, strengthening enforcement consequences for those who fail to use lawful pathways to come to the United States. For more information on how the Proclamation and IFR work, visit the following links:

https://www.dhs.gov/news/2024/06/04/fact-sheet-presidential-proclamation-suspend-and-limit-entry-and-joint-dhs-doj
Individuals continue to be eligible for asylum, including individuals who use the CBP One™?mobile app’s appointment scheduling function. CBP makes 1,450 appointments available per day at eight land ports of entry via this functionality. Use of the app requires those seeking an appointment to submit vital information in advance, improving DHS’s ability to conduct screening and vetting. CBP One is just one example of how this Administration has carried out the largest expansion of lawful pathways and orderly processes in decades.
The majority of all Southwest border encounters during the past three fiscal years resulted in a removal, return, or expulsion.?DHS removed or returned over 740,000 individuals in the 12 months after the end of the Title 42 public health Order, more than any year since 2010. That included more removals to countries other than Mexico than in any prior year ever.

When will Kamala Harris be the official Democratic presidential nominee?
https://www.npr.org/2024/07/26/g-s1-13338/kamala-harris-joe-biden-dnc-democrat-nominee
July 26, 20245:00 AM ET
Stephen Fowler
Democrats have approved rules for an abbreviated nominating contest to replace President Biden at the top of the ticket this fall ahead of the party's convention in August.
Any challengers to Vice President Harris would have until July 27 to declare their candidacy, and until July 30 to prove their eligibility, with a virtual vote on the nomination coming as early as next Thursday, Aug. 1.
Under a new proposal approved by the Democratic National Convention Rules Committee, any candidate seeking the nomination would also need to show support from at least 300 delegates, with no more than 50 from any one state.
If only Harris is qualified, voting would begin Aug. 1, otherwise the virtual roll call would start around Aug. 3.
So, what's the timeline?
What’s the Democratic Party’s plan?
For a candidate to challenge Vice President Harris, what would have to happen?
By July 27 Candidates declare interest in presidential nomination.
After declaring intent to run by July 27, all candidates must show support from at least 300 delegates by July 30, with no more than 50 delegates per state allowed.
Starting Aug. 1 If Harris is the only candidate, delegates vote electronically on Aug. 1 and she becomes the nominee. If more than one candidate is qualified, voting is set to begin around Aug. 3. If no candidate receives a majority in the first round, then the top two advance to a second round of balloting.
By Aug. 7 The nominee chooses a running mate. —
Aug. 19 to 22 Delegates convene in Chicago. Democrats hold a ceremonial roll call vote for the presidential and vice presidential nominees, as well as vote to approve the party's platform. —
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, DNC Rules Committee co-chair, applauded the process as open and transparent.
"We will move fast to deliver a nominee that represents our values and has the experience to effectively execute our party's agenda." he said. "I look forward to supporting the eventual nominee throughout their campaign and celebrating that nomination in Chicago and a victory In November."
Once the presidential nominee is selected, that person would have until Aug. 7 to select a vice presidential running mate.
Party leaders say the accelerated timeline is to ensure proper ballot access deadlines are met. Different states have different deadlines for the creation of ballots with certified candidates on them.
The Democratic National Convention in Chicago would then see a ceremonial roll-call vote celebrating the presidential ticket, plus actual votes on the party's platform.
