DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data.

My firm has moved to intervene in 10 of those cases. We are working on the last 4.

Remind yourself of this every day.

Especially on the bad days.

Indiana Republicans have withstood immense pressure from Trump — and ignored threats on their lives — to defeat his plan to redraw the state’s congressional map, dealing him one of his most significant political setbacks since his return to the White House.
Indiana GOP rejects Trump’s map in major blow to his gerrymandering push
The GOP-controlled state Senate voted down a bill that would have wiped out Indiana’s two Democratic-held seats in the House.

One of Donald Trump Jr.’s companies just got a $620 million Pentagon contract – the biggest ever made by the Office of Strategic Capital.

Coincidence? I think not.

There is no justification for striking shipwrecked survivors in the middle of nowhere in the ocean.

The Department of Defense knows what they did is wrong.

What a disgrace. Secretary Noem has no answer when asked about deporting combat veterans who have literally put their lives on the line for our country. It's shameful and a disrespect to those who have served.

Host: Inside a Texas detention center people have limited drinkable water, moldy food, and denied medical care. Families say children are weak, faint, pale, often crying from hunger. One mother said, “It’s a prison…a living hell. All the children here are suffering.”

What’s happening at the Supreme Court this week is bigger than just one FTC commissioner. The majority seems ready to endorse the “unitary executive” theory, giving Trump the power to purge agency staffers and replace them with loyalists. It’s a frightening prospect we should be paying attention to.

When billionaires take control of communication platforms, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.

This is a danger to the free press.

Trump has pardoned huge amounts of fraud and truly heinous crimes.

In particular, he's pardoned more corrupt elected officials than any other President, and it's not particularly close.

This President is a crook through and through.
