NEW: FBI agents raided the office of Virginia state Sen. Louise Lucas — one of the leading forces behind the state’s Democratic redistricting plan — just weeks after voters approved the high-stakes measure. It's the latest example of the Trump administration targeting its political opponents.

More updates from Nashville:

BREAKING: The Alabama House voted 75-29 to pass legislation that could change the state’s congressional map during ongoing primaries — a last-minute attempt to diminish Black voting power before the midterms in light of SCOTUS’ ruling last week. The measure now heads to the state senate for a vote.

If Trump's going to attack California, yeah f— him

I am the only candidate for governor who refuses corporate donations. Period.

In all, at least 75 career federal officials who’d played important roles in elections have left, been fired or been reassigned. In their place are roughly two dozen people Trump has installed in positions that could affect elections.

The world’s ten richest people — all Americans — saw their collective net worth increase by $260 billion in April. These ten people are now worth a combined $2.7 trillion. The bottom 50% of U.S. households, 66 million in total, is worth $4.3 trillion. Wondering if inequality is out of control?

I'm confused.

Make no mistake: The devastation and abuse you saw – in Lakeview, and Little Village, Brighton Park, and East Side were not accidents or aberrations from a plan. They were the plan in Operation Midway Blitz.

More accurate estimates found that Trump’s war on Iran has cost $50B. That money would fund a year of the ACA subsidies that he and the GOP have refused to extend — with $20B left over. Instead, millions of Americans have dropped their insurance because they can’t afford it. Priorities.

The law has not changed. The way it is being applied has. Comey indictment. Congressional resignations. Immigration judges removed mid backlog. Same rules. Different outcomes. https://shanlonwu.substack.com/publish/post/195968562?r=5dicwe&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

What is happening in Louisiana right now is both a redistricting power grab and a dry run for authoritarian election subversion this Fall. The governor has declared a state of emergency to suspend the congressional elections because he doesn't like the current map.

Scientists are wary of glyphosate. MAHA loathes it. And our yearlong investigation shows California is spraying it everywhere.

The Illinois Accountability Commission just released its report on the misconduct and crimes that ICE and CBP committed during Operation Midway Blitz. Now, prosecutors and police departments have more evidence and information for investigations.
