Her report did not go over well at the #TrumpOrganization, which hasnāt previously been subject to such policing of its internal operations.

They accused her of intentionally running up an enormous bill cataloguing minor accounting matters. The company must pay for her teamās workā¦,a tab that ran to $2.6M over the 1st 14 months.

Meet Barbara Jones, the ex-judge now policing Trumpās business moves
No other court-appointed monitor has been tasked with keeping tabs on the financial transactions of a former and perhaps soon-to-be-sitting president.Jonathan O'Connell (The Washington Post)
The Feb #civil court ruling that #Trump was #liable for business #fraud has largely receded from headlines as the presidential race enters its final stage. But he faces continued scrutiny from #BarbaraJones, a seasoned fmr judge whom the court has granted X-ray vision into the finances of Trumpās business for the next 3 years, through the Nov election & possibly into a 2nd Trump term.

The headline: āRepublicansā Electoral College Edge, Once Seen as Ironclad, Looks to Be Fadingā
Thereās a whole Nate Cohn piece in the NYT about this, but hereās the gist via Dave Wasserman:
Iād estimate #Harris might need to win the popular vote by 1.5 to 3 points to prevail in the Electoral College, a bit down from the 3.8 point pro-#Trump skew in 2020.
MY gist? VOTE YOUR ASSES OFF NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY.
So apparently the #Trump supporters are shooting at #Harris campaign offices now, and I think it really underlines something about the #violence that Trump has inspired this election cycle, and how there is this clear split in how it's being carried out.
Trump has inspired two people to shoot at him this summer: an anti-election anarchist, and an elderly man with a criminal record. While this is obviously really bad for reasons that have already been enumerated, it's also targeted entirely at a single person with power.
Trump has also inspired numerous people to shoot up schools, churches, synagogues, Walmarts, and now a Harris campaign office. These pro-Trump shooters aren't even targeting people who might have the power to do something, they're just targeting bystanders.
I hope this doesn't scare people away from publicly showing support for Harris, and that people remember that, if nothing else, they can't see who you vote for.

The recent debate between Trump and Harris gave an opportunity to observe the patterns in their vastly different spoken appeals and themes.
#Trump appealed to the past, used more negative words and invoked fear.
#Harris spoke more of the future, used more positive words and appealed to hope.
