So long plastic air pillows: Amazon shifting to recycled paper filling for packages in North America

Amazon is moving from putting plastic air pillows in its packages in North America to using recycled paper filling instead, a move that’s more environmentally friendly and is said to secure items in boxes just the same, if not better

@GottaLaff I recently ordered a very large bottle of hot sauce... It came in a box that had a fair amount of wiggle room. It was packed with a loosely crumpled, single sheet of recycled paper... These are harrowing times. Glad to see the plastic go, but they may need to be more generous on the paper

Tommy Tuberville says he went to Gotham to help an accused felon threaten a judge's family.

Via David Lurie:

Tuberville is a bad co-conspirator.

Aaron Rupar:

Tommy Tuberville admits on Newsmax that "one of the reasons he went" to NYC yesterday was to "overcome this gag order"

1/… more preamble, via Rupar:

Trump this morning printed out new NYT poll showing him ahead in swing states+ some Fox columns for good measure.

"A legal expense is a legal expense. It's marked down in the book, 'legal expense'" --Trump still pretending he doesn't understand why he was charged w crimes re Stormy payment

Tomorrow Trump's $175M bond may be ruled null and void.

Just a quick reminder that Trump is facing two tough court reckonings tomorrow. Everyone will be following the opening statements in his NY election fraud trial, but nearby his lawyers will be meeting with NY prosecutors and Judge Engoron to rule on the validity of his 'fishy' $175M bond for his business fraud conviction. If the bond is deemed invalid, asset seizure to cover the $450M+ judgement may commence.

    Might be wrong here, but seems like this may be a bigger deal than a clerical error as is being widely reported:

    Rejected and ‘returned for correction’: Docs for Trump’s $175M bond get bounced >>> https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/rejected-and-returned-for-correction-docs-for-trumps-175m-bond-get-bounced/

    It may be that the bond company didn't report their financials because they have insufficient collateral to secure a bond of this magnitude. In which case the bond is no good, Trump doesn't have a bond, and he is out of time.

    Let's see how this gets resolved...

    So, what seems to have happened here is Chubb, who underwrote the E. Jean Carroll $83M rape bond and who's chairman Evan Greenberg seems to be in the tank for the criminal rapist, got a full measure of (well deserved) blowback for supporting the rapist and has now passed, along with everone else, on underwriting the big half billion dollar criminal fraud bond.

    Thanks to @SteveThompson for posting the link.

    Who thinks the Chubb chumps will ever see their $83M repaid?
