Donald Trump's former Attorney General William Barr came out swinging in an Op-Ed against legalizing marijuana, accusing the Biden-Harris administration of being inspired by politics rather than science in its as-yet unfulfilled decision to reschedule cannabis."We hear a lot from the current administration about the ‘rule of law,'" wrote Barr in a Fox News opinion piece. "But by ignoring legal standards and scientific evidence in its rush to loosen restrictions on marijuana, the Biden-Harris administration is riding roughshod over the rule of law and playing fast and loose with the health and safety of the American people — all for political gain."Politicize Cannabis As Elections Loom? Who Would Do Such A Thing?While casting some serious aspersions on cannabis reform, Barr did not mention his former boss Donald Trump.

A biographer of Donald Trump's is seeing the ex-president start to panic after another huge night for the Democratic Party at their convention in Chicago. David Cay Johnston spotted one of Donald Trump's latest fundraising emails as a sign of anxiety. The Trump campaign's fundraising numbers have lagged despite hosting the Republican National Convention and naming his vice presidential running mate. In July, he was only able to pull in $139 million compared to Kamala Harris' nearly $500 million. Read Also: ‘A little boy’: Former GOP congressman says Trump’s worst tantrums are yet to comeThe language, he pointed out, is "red-baiting," Johnston said, "and sliming of her donors." The email flashes "EMERGENCY ALERT" at the top and another "ALERT" in a graphic at the bottom. The text is in all caps and begging for help. "She's expecting millions more dirty liberal dollars to pour in today," Trump's team wrote, revealing the Democrats' high fundraising numbers. "Today might be her best fundraising day ever!" Indeed, according to the Trump biographer, this is the "latest sign of [Trump's] panic." — (@)

U.S. Rep. Bill Pascrell, a longtime congressman from New Jersey and unflinching critic of former President Donald Trump, died at 87 years old on Wednesday, his family announced.Pascrell (D-N.J.), a former public school teacher, state assemblyman, and mayor of Paterson, was first elected to Congress in 1996 and served 14 terms.His death led to an outpouring of tributes from dignitaries in New Jersey and across the country. Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, called him "a constant fighter for what is right and just."Pascrell, not one to hold back for fear of impropriety, was known for memorable one-liners. After he arrived in Washington, he put a bumper sticker on his door that said "NAFTA is Shafta," expressing his opposition to free trade agreements."The joy of Bill Pascrell is you never walked away from Bill Pascrell saying he was undecided," Rep. Richard Neal (D-Mass.), his colleague on the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, said in 2020.As he advanced in age, Pascrell became something of an ally to younger colleagues, endorsing a Green New Deal, for example. In 2019, he tweeted a satirical article from The Onion titled "82-Year-Old New Jersey Congressman Bill Pascrell Quietly Asks Ilhan Omar If He Can Be Part Of The Squad.""Well. How 'bout it," he jokingly asked the the small, left-wing band of lawmakers, getting an immediate "You're in, Bill Pascrell!" in response from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.).Mostly, Pascrell was known in his later years for his no-holds-barred criticism of Trump—whose tax returns he pursued vigorously, in his role on the Ways and Means Committee—and other Republicans, and the comedy he produced at their expense.Pascrell took seeming delight in Trump's recent felony conviction in the New York hush money trial.A few days earlier, Pascrell took aim at U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, who's been mired in controversy for unreported gifts he accepted from Republican megadonors in the past. Pascrell posted an artistic rendering, based on a real scene from five years ago, of Thomas smoking a cigar while he sits beside megadonor Harlan Crow, his main benefactor, and right-wing legal influencer Leonard Leo, among others.Pascrell communicated with a directness that many Democratic officeholders are reluctant to employ, drawing praise—and smiles—from left-leaning followers of his social media account.In 2018, when Trump remarked that immigrants were coming to the U.S. from "shithole" countries, Pascrell invoked a racist character from the 1970s sitcom All in the Family.Pascrell, who was an advocate for veterans who'd suffered brain injuries in Iraq and Afghanistan, objected to Trump's disrespect for those who'd given their lives for the country.During the pandemic, Pascrell warned that Trump's approach to dealing with Covid-19 could be deadly for Americans.Trump's attorney general, William "Bill" Barr, was a frequent target of Pascrell's wrath: The congressman called him the "worst most corrupt despicable attorney general in U.S. history." So when Barr made claims about the Kenosha, Wisconsin, riots of 2020, Pascrell proved skeptical.In a 2020 debate, when Trump interrupted President Joe Biden while the then-Democratic nominee spoke about the military service of his son Beau Biden, who'd died of cancer five years earlier, Pascrell was unimpressed.Pascrell was an indefatigable critic of Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, whom he said had tried to sabotage—that is, slow down—the work of the U.S. Postal Service as a way of helping Trump's elections chances in 2020. (Most mail-in votes were for Democrats.) Pascrell blamed not just DeJoy but also the service's Board of Governors who had appointed the Republican businessman as their head.Pascrell kept beating the drum against DeJoy, unsuccessfully, until he died. (DeJoy is still the postmaster general.) The congressman also regularly used social media as a platform to argue that Republicans posed a threat to democracy.Pascrell, who was the second-oldest member of the House, will likely be replaced by another Democrat, as his district leans solidly blue.
