Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.

He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

"I'd say we're there now," he says. "I'm very proud of it."

Trump is polling at near-historic lows because of his handling of the economy.

Leaders of the so-called “pro-life, small government” party who relentlessly warn of tyranny are standing by as masked agents roam the country and brutalize its people. The hypocrisy isn’t surprising — but it’s staggering. Remember this.

The right to vote is among the most sacred rights we possess. It is the source of all other rights, writes Damon Hewitt of @lawyerscomm.bsky.social.

As discriminatory barriers to the ballot box become more calculated, the need for bolder, stronger federal voting rights protections is long overdue.
Beyond Callais: We need new tools to uphold voting rights
Over 60 years of precedent and protection for voters of color, especially Black voters, could be upended and voided if SCOTUS fails to uphold the right to vote.

NEW: The Trump admin certainly put on a show last week about changing tactics in Minnesota after ICE agents killed Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old VA nurse.

Trump even suggested it's time for "a softer touch."

Except residents say nothing has changed. At all. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...
