Emil Bove was Donald Trump’s personal lawyer and at the Department of Justice, he has served as Trump’s chief enforcer. Most importantly to Trump, Bove is also a true believer in the Big Lie, which is exactly why Trump wants him on the 3rd Circuit.

As a four-decade veteran of the daily journalism business, let me tell you: Every competent political reporter in this country knows that Trump is trying to establish a dictatorship. The industry's shame is that so few journalists will say so, and the ones who do lose their jobs.

The danger in ignoring the voting rights of citizens in more than half the country is that it creates a two-tiered democracy. Voters in swing states benefit from rigorous legal protections, while voters elsewhere are left to navigate burdensome rules without meaningful support or scrutiny.

Before DOGE took control of USIP, the duly appointed president was George Moose, a career diplomat who first joined the foreign service in 1967.

There was one singular person the Trump team wanted to kill. They thought they tracked him to his girlfriend’s place, presumably in a civilian apartment building in Sana’a. So they dropped bombs on the neighborhood and leveled the building. Reactions from the group:
