Originally published at: How Trump’s Corruption Makes Everything DOJ Does Suspect
No One Is Safe One of the most pernicious effects of corrupting federal law enforcement is that it undermines public confidence — as it should — in everything the Justice Department does. You can’t have a Justice Department or FBI doing corrupt work with one hand and normal aboveboard work with the other and expect…

It’s also held up by this
Siblings said “sure, sell!” but it has to be all of them. Jeanie says “nope!”
“No sale of the JAB Trust’s 17.8% ownership interest in the Los Angeles Lakers, Inc. can be effectuated without approval by the current co-trustees, i.e., Jeanie, Janie and Joey Buss. Pursuant to the JAB Trust and the attached Court Order, the co-trustees are bound to vote the Los Angeles Lakers, Inc. shares to ensure that the minimum 15% ownership requirement is maintained in order to ensure that Jeanie Buss may remain Controlling Owner,” Streisand says in the letter.

Almost certainly a troll by the juvenile delinquents currently pretending to run Shasta county and California will probably not have to do anything but it captures 15 minutes of the news cycle so whatever.

Trump to allow ground beef import without tariff
President Donald Trump on Friday morning said the United States will allow up to 300,000 metric tons of product for ground beef to be imported over the next three months without being subject to out-of-quota tariffs.
Trump also said, “We have a commitment that this beef will be sold at 25 percent below current [market prices](Cattle prices soar to record highs as grilling season heats up).”
The president’s Truth Social post announcing the move did not say which companies had made those commitments, which he said came “as we work to rebuild this herd and help our ranchers.”
Trump did not say who he had reached a deal with on the import waivers, or which importers have committed to selling ground beef at below-market prices as a result of the tariff relief
The National Cattlemen’s Beef Association criticized the move, saying it would not address Trump’s stated intention of helping to increase the size of the U.S. beef herd.
Sen. Tim Sheehy, R-Mont., in a tweet, said, “I’ve advised President Trump against this course of action for a year because American ranchers have been struggling against the packer monopoly for decades, and this will further harm them — most of whom are MAGA Republicans.”
“The President’s heart is in the right place on wanting lower prices for the American people, and beef prices have been impacted by the Mexican screwworm,” Sheehy said.
“But the reality is this action will make it more difficult for American ranchers to rebuild our herd and bring prices down for the American people,” the senator said. “And most importantly, this will harm our ranching families who feed the nation.
