It’s not too late for states and Congress to stop Trump from subverting the midterms
With only nine months before the midterm elections, Trump is plotting to prevent Democrats from taking control of Congress.

What happened in Fulton County last month is a tragedy for the future of free and fair elections.
If we want to prevent the scales from toppling over altogether, the events of the last month must serve as a necessary wake-up call for the federal judiciary, Marc Elias writes.

Two cases and the grease that breaks democracy
The obvious lesson many are drawing is that ordinary citizens are more reliable protectors of democracy than judges in black robes.

This is a huge glaring issue right now. Courts generally ARE doing fairly well, even including significant number of Trump appointees. The corruption is concentrated in scotus.
Our court system is largely working, with the exception of the most important court
Courts have ruled 4,400 times that ICE jailed people illegally. It hasn’t stopped.

We can never get true justice for those killed by ICE. Because true justice would mean they would be alive today.
But our demands for accountability remain clear:
Abolish ICE.
