Trump lawyers call Comey Machiavellian in memo
A confidential 13 page memo by Marc Kasowitz portrays former FBI Director James Comey as Machiavellian and unbounded by law as Trump lawyers seek to undermine Comey’s credibility as a key witness. The document, dated June 27 2017, argues Comey embellished testimony and acted with personal and political self interest, aiming to frame his Clinton investigation handling and early encounters with the president. The memo emerges amid Mueller probe context and inspector general scrutiny of Comey’s conduct.

Wildfires Sweep California Beset Goleta Evacuation Amid Heat
Wildfires across the U S West challenge crews with Goleta evacuations and damage in Santa Barbara County. A California Oregon border blaze had destroyed dozens of buildings and claimed a life, while San Bernardino and Alpine fires prompted evacuations and state emergency declarations. Firefighters gained ground as gusty winds eased and containment improved in spots, though critical weather warnings remained. Residents faced scorched homes some spared by luck, with personal losses and salvage efforts described in Goleta and nearby communities.
