New reporting by Democracy Docket suggests that Patriot Grassroots’ canvassers also crossed a line in Missouri, where volunteers gathering signatures to put a GOP-backed gerrymander to a statewide vote said they were harassed by out-of-state paid agitators.

Missouri volunteers say they were harassed by paid GOP canvassers. It’s likely the same group accused of forging signatures in Utah
“They were like, ‘Actually, no. We’re here to stop you from getting signatures.’”

There’s a lot to investigate and report on from today’s stunning deposition of Les Wexner. But here’s something I can’t get over.

I asked Mr. Wexner if the DOJ or FBI ever contacted him to ask him about Epstein and his crimes. He said NO. That’s outrageous and unforgivable.

In honor of Chamberlain Harris being appointed to greenlight Trump's gaudy bunker, a reminder of how she deleted her Russian ties when it became clear she had copied classified records for Trump.

Another thing to add to the Dem platform: all of these contracts were plainly procured through fraud, not one of them will be honored, and all culpable parties will be prosecuted.

This isn't a "radical" demand, it's the bare minimum required to re-establish the rule of law.
The current person in charge of ICE's procurement for detention is a GEO Group executive who ran the company's immigration detention portfolio. He was granted an "ethics waiver" from DHS allowing him to hand out contracts to GEO in his new role.

"The Shadow President," @andykroll.bsky.social's deep dive into Russell Vought, has just won a George Polk award for political reporting.

The piece chronicles Vought’s rise from the Senate mailroom to his position as one of the most influential players in the Trump administration.

Wait, did the SAVE Act already pass and they forgot to tell voters? No!

I’m going to need an update on this. I hope she was able to cast her ballot in the primary.

Texans, if this is happening to you, post your story with the polling location. Put it on blast. And report it.

PURE HELL was the first Black punk band. They lasted from 1974-1979, but a falling out with their manager meant their record didn’t come out until 2010. I gave it a listen:

“I do not believe when Mr. Wexner says that he did not have a personal relationship or a friendly relationship" with Jeffrey Epstein, Rep. Robert Garcia said. He also sharply criticized the DOJ after Wexner stated he has not been contacted by the FBI.

"What the hell is going on? That is shameful.”
Les Wexner says 'diabolical' Jeffrey Epstein 'duped' him, denies wrongdoing
Wexner, the retired founder of Victoria's Secret ex-parent L Brands, has long faced scrutiny over his personal and financial relationships with Epstein.

As I predicted last week, the GOP has filed a new lawsuit -- again in Tazewell County. At this point they are just helping increase my firm's court victory count for the cycle. So I guess I should say thanks.😂
After the state Supreme Court's order today, Virginia Democrats are now one referendum vote away from a 10-1 congressional map. I suspect the GOP is trying to figure out how to file a new lawsuit or concoct a theory for SCOTUS. Both will fail.

A big win! www.democracydocket.com/cases/virgin...
