The Justice Department’s internal watchdog lost a crucial account from a whistle-blower detailing wrongdoing by political appointees for more than two months,
prompting criticism that the agency’s inspector general has been inactive and silent during a time of deep turmoil.
The complaint, submitted in early May, accused top Justice Department officials like Emil Bove III of overseeing an effort to mislead judges and skirt or ignore court orders,
according to people familiar…

I watched Tenet last night; it's an OK Time travelish film crossed with a spy thing.
A slight twist (which gives an opportunity for some fun special effects) With the normal mix of time confusion etc.
BBC iPlayer has it free for the next 13 days in the UK (which is how I watched it) - I'd been watching out for it since it got released during Covid and I wasn't going to go to a cinema for it.

Watched all of "Ghosts US", the American version of the UK spooky sit-com.
There's like seventy episodes that I watched in less than a week. This is how I like telly to be. Relentless.
The show's weaker than the UK one in some ways but that shear continuity, the endless-seeming perpetuity of it, drove it into my brain.
US Ghosts are always trying to cop off with each other. Sexy ghosts. Pairing up. Don't remember much of that in the UK one. Perhaps when you make it 5x longer you're left with little else in the way of story to write.
Anyway, it's over now. I miss it in the way you might miss an infuriating neighbour if they moved out.
