"1) How and why did Hegseth prepare false talking points for sworn congressional testimony; and "2) Can Hegseth maybe now answer truthfully and specifically about his possible plans for the 2026 midterm elections?" www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

I defeated Trump and his allies more than 60 times in court when he tried to steal the 2020 election. When Trump sued me for RICO in 2022, I didn't settle. I fought and won. He and the GOP hate me because I fight. They fear me because I win.

It's a moral outrage that we're the only industrialized country without paid family and medical leave.

With our team of 60 lawyers, Elias Law Group is currently litigating 85 voting and election cases in 43 states plus DC. Perhaps someone should ask the law firms with thousands of lawyers how many pro-democracy cases they are handling. For most, the answer is zero.

Not an Evangelical but pretty sure you burn in Hell for being an infamous draft-dodger and notorious coward who posts AI images of yourself on the front lines of a war you started to enrich yourself and your friends without any interest in how many kids or American soldiers it kills

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito leaned on an erroneous claim that Black voter turnout now tops white voter turnout, in his Callais v. Louisiana ruling that gutted the Voting Rights Act, reports The Guardian. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

For years, Hungary's Viktor Orban gerrymandered his opposition out of power. But in the end, all the dirty tricks in the world couldn't save him from sinking approval ratings and massive voter turnout. There's a lesson here for us.

Can someone stop Trump from destroying historic DC? The Eisenhower Executive Office Building is famous for its gray granite facade, and he wants to paint it white, costing taxpayers at least $7.5 million. NEWSFLASH: this isn’t going to lower gas or grocery prices or open the Strait of Hormuz.

And where is the outrage from mainstream media outlets over this? Crickets. 🦗

Good morning and happy Thursday to everyone. Your periodic reminder that the Trump DOJ and FBI know the names of everyone who raped children on Epstein's island and refuse to prosecute any of them. Do not stop talking about Epstein.
