This is odd, it looks like the DOJ skipped suing Texas entirely. The Justice Department is now suing California over the new congressional district boundaries that voters approved just last week, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Thursday in a post on X. Who are they going to sue, the voters?

A Democratic project could be to hold clinics to help everyone get a passport. If Republicans insist on ID, then help everyone get a passport. A good way for democrats to step up for young USians. @democrats.org Also, having a passport means more chances to travel.

Women have lost substantive rights. But there's almost zero discussion of it. Punditry, media, politics have pivoted to "poor men are very sad and politically we must DO SOMETHING." Imagine how sad men would be if they didn't control their own bodies.

Why live in country that will kill you if your pregnancy doesn’t work out? Whose newspapers say females screwed with the work place, who pays you less for doing the same work or better than your male counterpart? To be young again…I’d leave too.
