Larry Sinclair wrote in an e-mail message received by Big Head DC today that Montgomery Blair Sibley is no longer his D.C. lawyer. Sibley told Sinclair that he has been barred from practicing in D.C. District Court as of yesterday.

“I am speaking with the National Enquirer,” Sinclair added.

1) Hey BHDC, maybe you can do a new post about the threats and harassment that Free Republic and many other Web sites are getting over Larry Sinclair’s story: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2055994/posts

2) How Gawker Media screens its interns.

3) Any news on Leola McConnell? I hope she is alive and doing well. I believe her and find her “stories” to be credible. What is the latest on her? Where can I get a copy of her books if she had time to write them?

4) John Cusack to appear in Hustler: “Actor and producer John Cusack finally unleashes his outrage at the Bush Administration and their disastrous failures: ‘The right-wing uses the aesthetics of authoritarianism. American patriotism is the cover for what they do.” In the context of his most recent movie, War, Inc., a dark comedy that skewers the Iraq War and American capitalism and greed, Cusack discusses with Hustler the goals, motivations and stresses of writing and producing such a film. The controversial War, Inc. was an international success starring Dan Aykroyd, Ben Kingsley, Joan Cusack, Hilary Duff and Cusack himself. War, Inc. will be available on DVD October 14 at retailers nationwide.” Related: recent interview.

5) Seriously. You had DCist and Wonkette on the ropes and now you’re doing weekly posts about Larry fucking Sinclair? Are you going to relaunch the blog, or is it going to stay like this?

From Montgomery Blair Sibley:

“Larry is fine. He is being arraigned this morning. Time will tell if the press conference was worth it.”

Does this signal a turning point in the long-ignored possibility of a Sen. Barack Obama drug/sex scandal? Also, has anyone else noticed that the Obama camp hasn’t debunked Sinclair’s claims on its new Web site devoted specifically to debunking rumors about Obama?
