USPS slowed the mail in nearly 20,000 ZIP codes — five times the 2024 pilot. The result? Late ballot rejections doubled or tripled in rural counties this primary. Experts say tens of thousands could be tossed in November. Mail yours EARLY.

Talarico: Elon wants our land. He's already trying to buy one of our beautiful state parks down in South Texas. He wants our water for these AI data centers. And he wants his very own personal United States senator — and that's what he thinks he can get with Ken Paxton.

Trump: "I'm studying his body. I've never studied the body of a man before. It's not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. But it's never been my thing. But I looked at his ass. I said, 'His ass, shit, it's like a pile of muscle.' Then I looked at his legs and I said, 'Man, his feet are big.'"

If you're having trouble visualizing 57 men ignored an attack on another human, this might help. 57 people is 11 basketball teams + 2 5 football teams + 2 A school bus full of children Four 12-person felony juries, plus nine people. That's how many men failed to help this poor woman. #Cornell7

Almost my entire family is Maga. I am filled with anger at them almost every single day. Even my closest family members. Every time I look at the news, or I just look around, I’m filled with rage. At my own family. It’s hard.

I still can’t believe that a nut job exclaimed, “They’re eating the cats, they’re eating the dogs” and millions of Americans said, “That’s the guy I want as president.”
