Exclusive: Georgia prosecutors have messages showing Trump’s team is behind voting system breach
By Zachary Cohen and Sara Murray, CNN
Updated 11:15 AM EDT, Sun August 13, 2023(CNN) - Atlanta-area prosecutors investigating efforts to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia are in possession of text messages and emails directly connecting members of Donald Trump’s legal team to the early January 2021 voting system breach in Coffee County, sources tell CNN.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is expected to seek charges against more than a dozen individuals when her team presents its case before a grand jury next week. Several individuals involved in the voting systems breach in Coffee County are among those who may face charges in the sprawling criminal probe.

FYI, Studio Ghibli didn't release any single trailer for this movie so far except 2 posters showing Mahito Maki and the Grey Heron.
These pictures can be clue how's the movie art style looks like before we watch it later in North American this year.
Director: Hayao Miyazaki.

It's been just over 2 years since JAXA's #Hayabusa2 mission returned to Earth with a sample from #asteroid #Ryugu. Journal papers have started to pour in from the initial analysis, but each only looks at a particular facet of the sample, and it can be overwhelming to follow and piece together. So we made a chalkboard video at ISAS highlighting a few of the trends seen across the publications! (This is based on a talk by Tachibana Shogo: Hayabusa2 Initial Analysis Team Manager)

- A video that looks like it's being drawn on a chalkboard highlighting a few of the main results from the analysis. Main results: (1) The amounts of the different chemical elements in Ryugu is similar to that of the Sun. Ryugu (or the larger asteroid from which Ryugu is a fragment) must therefore have formed with the young Sun at the start of the Solar System, making Ryugu’s composition an ingredient list for the Solar System & planets. (2) Fluid was found trapped in crystals of iron sulphide, consisting of water and carbon dioxide, which must have been incorporated into the asteroid while frozen. Ryugu must therefore have formed far from the Sun. But the magnetic field recorded in magnetite crystals also implied Ryugu was close to the Sun during the early Solar System. Ryugu therefore likely moved from the outer to inner Solar System while the planets were forming. So similar asteroid could have brought water to the Earth! An inter-planetary delivery mechanism definitely exists. (3) Ryugu’s surface has a veil of dehydration. Comparison of surface and sub-surface material collected by Hayabusa2 revealed that Ryugu’s surface minerals had lost water due to space weathering (e.g. radiation, cosmic rays, micro-meteorites). Other asteroids like Ryugu may therefore appear dry but actually be similarly veiled, with a space weathered layer hiding more water-rich minerals. This talk was based on a presentation by Tachibana Shogo, at the ISAS Space Science Symposium, Jan 2023. (remote)

Re-upping this again: I wish more lefties could internalize the idea that hypocrisy is not a meaningful accusation to the right. Of course they're being hypocrites. That you are bound, by rules, standards, logic, human decency, some fundamental moral consistency, anything at all, and they are not? That is their conception of what power is, and why they seek it. So they can exercise power, without constraint, and you cannot.
That's the whole point.
Hypocrisy is the virtue-signaling of fascism.
