NEW: The RNC sued the Bergen County, New Jersey election board over access to records identifying which poll workers were assigned to early voting sites in the county during the 2025 general election. The lawsuit comes as threats and harassment against election officials increase.

I have been writing at Law Dork about how DOJ had been slow-walking these loser cases: www.lawdork.com/p/doj-slow-w...

The Constitution does not give a president the unilateral power to drag the U.S. into a military conflict. Congress must stop Trump and his march towards what could be another endless war. Tell Congress today: No more forever wars. Stop Trump's war with Iran. Now.

What effect does dropping the lawsuits against these holdout firms have on the law firms that made deals with Trump to pay him + do pro bono work for him in exchange for his protection of their current & future federal contracts? Do they still need to pay & perform? Do threats to them continue?

Europe Was Against Khomeini Europe Is Even More Against Trump

The AHA has endorsed a resolution introduced by Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley honoring Black history museums and cultural institutions. These institutions are “essential to telling the full story of our nation’s past,” said AHA executive director Sarah Weicksel. 🗃️

Those three downed jets run around $90 million each. It cost $20 million a year to operate the food kitchens serving 816,000 people in Sudan.

Hegseth rejected Anthropic’s contractual terms of use as being ‘woke.’ Now I get what ‘woke’ means to MAGAs: WOKE With Old-fashioned Knowledge & Effectiveness Got it.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

More tax breaks for the elite wealthy. This is criminal that the elite fill coffers while workers lose funded health care. Under the guise of alternative fuel too. #proudblue. #pinks

The second best thing about having unionized supervisors is that you’ll likely have fewer issues with them not following the contract. Because they understand labor contracts. The first best thing is obviously all the other good stuff about being unionized.

A+ prom dress.

As bluesky has been noting for a few weeks now, AIPAC is dead as a political force in the Democratic party. Daniel Biss, the New Jersey races, and now Chris Van Hollen— there is no longer a taboo on being opposed to AIPAC. It’s finished. 1/2

As a historian, I'd just like to remind the politicians who follow me that it is not, in fact, 2003 anymore and the current GOP war in the Middle East is not, in fact, even remotely popular. So if you're a weathervane who just tries to do what's already popular, full-throated opposition is it!

The costs of this Iran war debacle will likely be more than the cost of extending the ACA health insurance subsidies. If you asked Americans, which do you want: another war in the Middle East or lower health care costs at home, is the margin 90 to 10? 95 to 5?

Nothing new about the leadership: next generation of the same religious Shia descendants & authoritarian political ideology. NEW * martyr Ayatollah, useful for unifying non-Iranian Shia radicals * murders of Iranian children to unify nationalists * threat to regional wealthy states * USA fatwahs

So many ostensibly straight news stories just flatly assumed that any friction in leaving Afghanistan had to be a result of incompetence by Biden, like there was a "no chaos" button he could have pushed to make the mass withdrawal of troops from an instantly failed state happen with no risk

For the 2026 primary elections, NPR has collected deadlines and information on how to register to vote — online, in person or by mail — in every U.S. state and territory.

KS passed a law to revoke driver’s licenses of transgender residents. Their revoked license status goes w/ them if they move to other states. Same would happen to any Dem purged from a state’s voter roll w/ a revoked Voter ID status moving to another state. @durbin.senate.gov @duckworth.senate.gov

Peace is free When President Obama was in office his administration negotiated an agreement so that Iran didn’t kill American troops during an illegal war Jackasses like Mike Waltz excoriated Obama They don’t care about our troops. They need their bloodlust sated

Former New Mexico Attorney General Balderas details how the FBI forcefully shut down New Mexico's criminal probe into what was up at Epstein's Zorro Ranch in Santa Fe Co. The feds insisted that they were running their own criminal probe and that NM's involvement would not be tolerated. It was a lie.

Kat’s head & heart are in the right place. I like her. But I’m voting for Daniel Biss. Biss has REAL progressive achievements in IL9, including the Evanston city’s payments for Reparations to Black residents. m.youtube.com/watch?v=2cM1...

Dear America This is your Ambassador to the United Nations His response to being notified of 3 United States Service Members being killed in action by Trump's War of Choice His name is Ambassador Mike Waltz, his response ⬇️ "FREEDOM IS NEVER FREE" NO remorse, no condolences SO SHAMEFUL !

This piece has been viewed over 14 million times over the last 48 hours. Unbelievable. I'm so encouraged to see how many people are as disgusted by this as I am. Sometimes you just need to be reminded that you're not alone. Keep fighting, good people! johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dear-pam-b...

My full statement on Trump's reckless and illegal war with Iran ⬇️

As resident in IL9, I’ve received 4 flyers in my mail from these deceptive AIPAC front groups. I support Biss b/c of his progressive leadership in IL Legislature & as Evanston mayor. IL9 needs Biss to fight for our interests not AIPAC war. Biss supported by JStreetPAC jstreetpac.org/candidate/da...

Russell Vought is the central architect driving the destruction of your government. We are urging Congress to act now to protect the American people by impeaching and convicting Vought. We invite all Americans to join us by signing on to our letter to Congress. actionnetwork.org/forms/civil-...

The CEOs of the Oil and Gas Industries and military industries want to thank the American people for paying for their wars instead of demanding affordable healthcare and educational services.

I spent a lot of my career before I came to Congress countering Iranian terror groups. We have incredible professionals at the Department of Homeland Security who work to keep us safe in moments like these, but Trump has cut their jobs and undermined their ability from day one. 1/2

They spent billions on regime change in Venezuela and left the Maduro's head of torture in charge. They are now spending billions on regime change in Iran, knowing the most likely outcome will be harder line leadership. We do not have serious people running our country.

“Just because you are outside of your home doesn’t mean you have consented to having a random bozo collect your face and your name, the latter of which can enable them to search for your digital presence or even home address. The act of existing in public should not carry those risks.”

We are really going to regret the technology we have built.

Supporters of this illegal war are saying Donald Trump is a hero because Khamenei killed protesters and oppressed women and queer people and irony is just dead at this point.

They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for).

Building on this metaphor, in addition to 'someone to blame' corporations have used consulting firms in factional politics. X group of Executive VPs wants this plan, Y group wants that plan. X group got McKinsey to say 'yes' Now just replace it with intelligence agencies and Anthropic (or Grok).

Seems like the emerging policy is: you people out there are responsible for setting up your own governments, but if the US doesn’t like who ends up in charge we’ll just assassinate or kidnap them and then the ball is back in your court.
