The home of SC Circuit Court judge, Diane Goodstein & her husband, Arnie burned to the ground.
Recently Judge Goodstein was involved in a case that blocked SC from turning over voter data to the DOJ. That decision was overturned by the Supreme Court.
Coincidence? Unlikely.

Dear @apnews.com
The republicans control congress. Democrats did not vote down anything. If the GOP wanted to fund the government, they could have changed the rules to pass a CR with a simple majority like they did 11 days ago to approve 48 trump appointees at once.
Fix your headline.

Just five media companies control 90% of our media market.
But it’s not just media. In 75% of U.S. industries, fewer companies now control more of their markets than they did 20 years ago – leaving us vulnerable to higher prices and lower wages.
Former FTC Chair Lina Khan explains.

He wants to dictate what the press can say.

It’s a fact. Data from three decades of political violence reveals that right-wing terror attacks outnumber attacks from the left.
