Where is Susan Collins at today after the ICE shooting in Maine? Time to spin the wheel for her talking point.

MAINE marches against ICE…

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court REJECTS Department of Justice lawsuit to obtain West Virginia full voter registration file. Another victory for Elias Law Group and our clients. This marks DOJ's 13th defeat with zero victories. www.democracydocket.com/cases/west-v...

Remember, senators, the most corrupt aspect of Blanche’s “settlement” with Trump was immunity from tax audits. The slush fund for the insurrectionists seemed to be just a decoy. He has walked back the slush fund, but not the immunity! www.nytimes.com/2026/07/12/u...

WATCH: “It certainly brings up some issues of sovereignty…” Even FOX isn’t buying Netanyahu’s bullshit about “moving from aid to partnership” as he admits his “lowering aid to zero” lie is really just cover for MERGING 🇮🇱 & 🇺🇸 militaries. Outrageous.

Gov. @GavinNewsom: “New York Times. 4 subpoenas against journalists because he didn’t like the reporting on his Qatari airplane… the Trump story is a corruption story. Period. The greatest grift we’ve ever seen in 🇺🇸 history. That’s what we’re up against.”

Lindsey Graham was one of the main subjects of a @theatlantic.com cover story I wrote in 2020, on why people collaborate with regimes they know are immoral. Here's a gift link: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

Elias Law Group has defeated DOJ lawsuits to access state voter files in: California Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan New Hampshire New York Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island Wisconsin DOJ has not won a single case. It is 0-12.

BREAKING: the clock struck midnight and our bipartisan housing bill is now law. Trump refused to sign it, but he couldn't stop it. This law is GROUNDBREAKING. It will build more housing, bring down costs, and for the first time, stop private equity from buying up homes.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court DISMISSES Department of Justice lawsuit to obtain an unredacted copy of New York's statewide voter registration list. A big victory for Elias Law Group and our Client the NAACP. DOJ is now 0-12 in these cases. ELG is undefeated. www.democracydocket.com/cases/new-yo...

They tried to take over D.C. on Independence Day, and they failed. Here's how you can fight back

NEWS: Republican U.S. Senate candidate in Iowa Ashley Hinson says her family can barely afford groceries. Her disclosures say she’s worth up to $7M richer since taking office. And the “all my stocks are sold” claim? Also false. The receipts 👇

Tom the Dancing Bug — A Busy, Busy Fourth of July By @rubenbolling.bsky.social

KEY: all three witnesses are being detained apart, and their story is consistent. They say that there were agents along the side of the vehicle but none in front. When you add the videos showing a lack of evidence of damage to the front despite ICE's ramming claim, ICE's story is falling apart.

Yeah, we know. We’ve been saying that for 18 months.

BREAKING: The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the Protect IL Communities Act. Illinois will continue banning assault weapons and high-capacity magazines capable of inflicting mass casualties. A victory in the fight to end gun violence that helps keep our communities safe.

Even after Trump political appointees at the Justice Department recommended criminal charges against Abbott Laboratories over contaminated baby formula, top Trump DOJ officials reportedly closed the case. I’m launching an inquiry today to find out🧵:

“We’ve got a party that is fighting for fraud and a party that is fighting against fraud." — JD Vance

A total violation of international law. Eswatini is imprisoning people from multiple countries no crime, based on no violation of law in that country, and with the direct knowledge and acquiescence of the United States.

Ever since King Henry III rolled out the Communist Manifesto at Westminster in 1226.

A software developer made a Chrome and Firefox extension called Knockoff that automatically hides, grays out, or filters products from sketchy brands on Amazon. @jasonkoebler.bsky.social spoke to him about why it went so viral. Read the story here: www.404media.co/knockoff-bro...

NEWS: Rep. Andrew Clyde owns a gun store. He sits on the committee that funds the ATF, and he's spent years trying to gut its budget. A gun sold by his store just turned up in a federal trafficking case.

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear sent a public letter to Sen. Mitch McConnell requesting a full update on his health, citing weeks of limited information since McConnell’s June 14 hospitalization. Beshear called for transparency about his ability to serve.

Enjoyed my conversation with the great Heather Cox Richardson. You can watch or listen here.

So i expect Russia will be desperately trying to escalate pain as will Ukraine since both are out of air defense. So it will be a massive escalation to try to reach the “uncle” pain threshhold first. Give Ukraine air defense now

Trump continues to use his pardon power as a 'Get Out of Jail Free' card for his political allies.   From Jan. 6 rioters who attacked police to financial fraudsters to polluters — it seems there’s no crime he won't pardon.   He's making a complete mockery of our justice system.

When Republicans choose to take a position on this, know that it's based on racism.

The made up numbers are now being imagined to 3 significant figures and compared to a non-existent historical time series.

To anyone considering helping President Trump interfere with our election or our count: You will be prosecuted. That’s why I’m moving forward with new legislation that would make it a FELONY to seize ballots before the vote has been certified by state and county officials.

If Susan Collins could find time to break the STOCK Act 25 times, you’d think she could have found a free evening sometime this century to hold a single town hall.

IT’S ALL TAXPAYER MONEY. SO WHO CARES if the federal government reimburses Florida for “Alligator Alcatraz”.

It will make you even angrier, but worth it to hear Robert Reich lay it all out. Insider trading to an epic level.

The way Trump is fraudulently, corruptly, and criminally profiting off the presidency might cause you to believe that the Supreme Court made him the only person in America who has immunity from being prosecuted. Like a king. But they would never do something that crazy.

Glad everyone’s ok — it’s also hard to imagine a better metaphor for the current state of 🇺🇸 than this

Not enough people are paying attention to this. The UAE is fueling the civil war in Sudan, arming the RSF who the Trump admin admits is committing a genocide. And yet, this admin refuses to hold them accountable. We should be asking why. x.com/nickkristof/...

By moving to the “center,” Democrats have failed to fight the forces that led us to Trump: widening inequality and the unchecked power of billionaires. There's no "center" anymore between a takeover of the government by oligarchs and true freedom. Dems need to learn this.

Our team is in court today to protect East Potomac Park, which President Trump is trying to convert from a public recreation space into an exclusive, high-end golf course for his rich friends.

The Democrats investigation also alleges... “Fundraisers misled donors who intended to support America250 and handed them Freedom 250’s banking information, routing contributions meant for the nonpartisan birthday foundation to the President’s substitute entity instead.”

My resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision now has 88 co-sponsors! (You can view the full list at: congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-joint-resolution/122) I won’t stop fighting to get it across the finish line.

What was once common sense is now the absurd under Trump. These dangerous weapons of war were taken off the streets to save lives. Here in Illinois, we took a stand against the gun lobby to keep communities safe with our assault weapons ban — and we’ll keep taking a stand.

They made Jimmy Carter sell his peanut farm. But multimillionaire Susan Collins violates the STOCK Act 25 times, and all she gets is a $200 fine.

This is the ONLY credible strategy to win the midterms.

Nehls on how House GOP will make case for affordability back home: Nehls: What are you talking about? I'm gonna get me lobster tails. Some nice rib eyes. Reporter: Do you think the 60% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck can afford that? Nehls: Maybe not. Maybe they don't work as hard as me.

I just signed a new law imposing a 100% state tax on any Californians who benefit from Donald Trump's Jan. 6th slush fund for insurrectionists. Taxpayer dollars should support victims, not the people who attacked law enforcement officers and our very democracy. We don't fund criminals.

It’s important to understand that the Court is now just an arm of the oligarchy. This decision strips the people of the right to limit the role of money in politics. It gives billionaires special rights to buy our elections. A precondition of oligarchy.

TL,DR: Not good that only 5 justices thought Trump’s EO facially unconstitutional. Here as in so many other places, Trump has moved the Overton window.

Jesus, three dissenting votes on birthright just might be the most insane part of this court's entire awful term.

This new Medicaid rule is nothing more than the Trump Administration’s latest attempt to attack the most vulnerable among us, rip coverage away from people who need it, and increase health costs. It’s harmful for patients, their caretakers and families, and our healthcare systems.
