Will no one stand up to Trump while he berates women journalists? Where is the White House Correspondents Association? Any thoughts from them??? WTAF. Would it be so hard for one of those journalists to say "with all due respect Mr. President, that is uncalled for and inappropriate."

DHS Secty Kristi Noem just admitted that Trump did ZERO vetting of National Guard shooter before granting him asylum in April. On Meet the Press she admitted: "The vetting process all happened under Joe Biden’s administration.” Trump regime failed to vet him and they failed to keep us safe!

My law firm is currently litigating 11 redistricting cases in 10 states. We are also litigating an additional 54 voting and election cases in 27 states.

This is as many cases as we typically handle going into the final months of the election. 2026 will almost certain be a record breaking year.
