Fantastic news.
Big news in North Carolina: A federal judge (appointed by Trump) has handed a major loss to Republican Jefferson Griffin, who's trying to overturn November's supreme court race.

The judge, Richard Myers, ordered North Carolina's Board of Elections to certify Democratic Justice Allison Riggs's win.

I'm sorry, but what an idiot. How could any government worker vote for Trump and not that he could be coming for them?
Laid-off IRS employee said he had voted for Trump: "I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying people’s lives for no reason."

Republicans are realizing that Trump's plummeting poll numbers are their election numbers of the not-so-distant future. They're now trying to delicately criticize him on Russia, they're getting slammed on the phones and at town halls.

But it's all too little, too late. Keep hitting them hard.

That Trump offered white South Africans "refugee" status & resettlement in U.S. while deporting brown people escaping violence, & telling Palestinians to find a new home--but not in the U.S.--tells you everything you need to know about the white supremacist plan.
