A reminder: Both sheriffs and local police have the right to refuse ICE detainers. These requests are voluntary and not legally enforceable under federal law. Across the country, many sheriffs and police departments choose not to cooperate and that choice is fully within their legal rights.

Excellent point. NewsCorpse, the Murdochracy threw everything at getting Dutton up again, and they failed completely. They no longer matter.
Can we just spare a thought, too, for the official end of News Corp as a political force. No one outside an aging political class pays any attention to them.

The religious cranks and fascists are on the up-and-up. They don’t vote, but they want to tell you how to vote. Are they fined for not voting? They should be.

We just wanted to keep you all updated estimates are now approaching 4 million. Incredible job pulling this off on a holiday weekend! It was tough to get accurate counts today because small towns showed up in force. Some states had record-breaking turnout we didn’t expect this includes

Another Random Thought…. When we get on the other side of this hellscape, remember it. So we never return. And tend the garden of democracy, because we see now how easy it is to take it for granted and nearly lose it all in a blink of an eye. It is precious. Do not let evil weeds take hold.
