As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:
“It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

I appreciate all that Mark has done for me. Great attorney and even better friend.
My firm is willing to represent pro bono those fired in this unlawful and vindictive purge. These dedicated civil servants were performing their jobs and upholding the rule of law.
BREAKING on @MSNBC:
The Justice Department is firing more than a dozen officials who worked on Special Counsel Jack Smith's team.
Acting Attorney General James McHenry claims the officials could not be trusted in "faithfully implementing the president's agenda."
