They might not be my first choices for news, but it does seem legit, unfortunately. The Newsweek and Guardian articles are mostly based on the local paper, I think. Lots of comments on the school fb page

Trey Gowdy taking the right wing “truth is subjective” viewpoint to its logical outcome. Who is to say what is fascism? If the people want it, at what point does it become centrist?

Jan. 6 hearing put on hold as hurricane bares down on Florida
Sarah K. Burris
September 27, 2022

WASHINGTON — Hurricane Ian is set to make landfall on Wednesday afternoon, which was around the time that the House Select Committee was supposed to be holding, what was thought to be, their final public hearing.

Rep. Stephanie Murphy (D-FL) is a Jan. 6 committee member who wants to be monitoring the storm and be on hand to help residents of her district.

By Tuesday, hurricane forecasts became clearer that the strength would be much more than expected. It is now expected to hit the west coast of Florida, dead on, and will reach a Category 4. It's the first time that a hurricane of this strength has hit the area in 90 years, MSNBC reported.

"In light of Hurricane Ian bearing down on parts of Florida, we have decided to postpone tomorrow’s proceedings. We’re praying for the safety of all those in the storm’s path. The Select Committee will soon announce a date for the postponed proceedings," the committee said in the statement.

At the same time, the House and Senate are working to craft a budget. The plan will likely result in another continuing resolution so that Republicans can change the budget if they take over after the November election.

All fun responses...

Legal experts are mocking Trump for sidelining his top attorney.

"Obviously this means the lawyer must have given Trump actual legal advice," teased George Conway.

"Which is just RUDE," replied attorney Ken White.

MSNBC/NBC News legal analyst and anchor Katie Phang asked, "So Kise is a $3 million dollar benchwarmer?"

Trump is already throwing over Chris Kise after signing a $3M retainer and convincing him to leave Foley & Lardner? That seems ... not smart," says Liz Dye, who writes about law and politics. "Chaos monkey gonna chaos monkey, I guess."

Dan Berman, CNN Politics managing editor for legal, immigration, and the Supreme Court serves up the perfect headline: "Trump's 3 Million Dollar Man is sidelined already."

LA Times columnist Harry Litman, a frequent guest on MSNBC and a former U.S. Attorney offered perhaps the most amusing response:
"The one credible lawyer that Trump has hired in years, Chris Kise, paying $3M up front, now has been demoted and is no longer leading the MAL defense. Must be Trump's payback for the fix he's now in w/ Judge Dearie. He thinks he's Goldfinger/Dr.No but he's really Austin Powers."

I don't blame him. Why give deSatan a free media ride on presidential coat-tails? I seem to recall that he's rarely mentioned TFG by name, either. Both of those guys are such media hoes that it probably pains them physically not to get that cable-and-network mention. I'm fine with that.
