Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.

The Voting Rights Act was paid for in blood on the bridge in Selma. Today, a conservative majority finished tearing down what those heroes died to build. It is a devastating betrayal of our history and our fundamental rights.

IMHO, Turley is right, but for the wrong reason. He says that wishing a POTUS dead is protected speech under Watts v U.S. Yes, but Turley assumes 86 is known to mean murder or harm. I don't think we have to get to the Watts argument. I think it fails first on what a reasonable person thinks 86 means

When you’ve lost Jonathan Turley 👀

Others have noted it, but it really is strange that Donald Trump, who obsesses over the slightest perceived insult to him, has never to my knowledge once discussed the actual man who took a shot at him in Butler, PA.

Washington is pretending to look busy with phony investigations—but don't let them distract you from the cover-up. The Epstein files remain hidden, and Pam Bondi still hasn’t appeared for questioning. No hearings. No deposition date. No answers.

BREAKING: Republican-appointed Virginia judge has struck down the Democratic-backed redistricting amendment in full, ruling it unconstitutional and “void from the start.” All votes from April 21 election are now invalid, and the state is permanently blocked from using the new maps, pending appeal.

The right gambled, tried to rig the election, lost, and now it’s excuses and tears. Thanks for everything, Virginia. 🙏🏽

AOC is all sensible Americans right now, Americans who have completely lost patience with the wildly incompetent, lying loons currently running things who undermine our sanity, wealth, and wellbeing.

Any "extraordinarily brilliant person" would know his presidency is in free-fall after his disastrous decision to enter another endless war-of-choice in the Middle East & that on November 3rd accountability is coming for the most corrupt criminal Administration in U.S. History. tick...tick...tick

"[Republicans] have overlooked [Trump's] mental disorders in the past— dismissed them. They've overlooked his depravity. They've overlooked the fact that he is an adjudicated sexual abuser. That he's a convicted criminal ... Because it served their purposes. It no longer serves their purposes."

On the pod, @gtconway.bsky.social lays out accountability agenda if Dems win House: *Impeach Trump and top officials *Criminal referrals to DOJ *25th Amendment commission *Fix Impoundment Act *Codify DOJ independence There's much more here. It's a good discussion: newrepublic.com/article/2091...

Trump’s getting crushed where it counts. CNN’s Harry Enten: this is his worst ever on inflation the #1 issue for voters. Even -47 in some polls. Prices are up. His numbers are in free fall. You can’t spin your way out of people’s grocery bills. #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/Aaz6O-FjRTnG...

The US Navy fired on and seized an Iranian-flagged cargo ship today. That's not blockade enforcement. That's a kinetic act on a sovereign vessel. Anyone still calling this a "limited operation" isn't paying attention. #HoldFast

NEW: UAE scholar Abdulkhaleq Abdulla says the UAE no longer needs U.S. protection, calling American bases a “burden, not a strategic asset” and suggesting they should be closed. The United States’ standing in the region has been obliterated.
