The federal judge in Alaska presiding over Trump’s lawsuit challenging the state’s senate race election results has officially fast-tracked it for DISMISSAL. The ruling opens the door for democrat Mary Peltola (Yupik) to become the first female Indigenous Senator in U.S. history.

The good news is that we are winning in court. The bad news is that we have to win every case. Trump only needs to subvert one election to break democracy.

I don't think I ever watched an episode of Star Trek (science fiction isn't my thing), but I thought casting a Russian while the Cold War was still raging, to make the point that humans would get along better in the future, was a lovely touch.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

🚨BREAKING: The Department of Justice (DOJ) filed an unprecedented lawsuit Thursday, effectively calling for Alaska’s Division of Elections to set aside the results of the Senate race if anyone other than incumbent Sen. Dan Sullivan (R) wins www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

democracydocket.comDOJ preemptively challenges Alaska election results if Democrat wins Senate race"An election result may be impacted by voter confusion if: (1) Senator Sullivan does not win the election," the DOJ filing argues.

The relentless attacks on Rep. Ilhan Omar represent something deeply troubling. Political disagreement is democracy. Racism, bigotry and intimidation are not. No woman should be subjected to hatred for her identity, her voice or her refusal to be silenced. #Pinks 📨✨ — Pinks Global

If you were waiting for your sign to donate to an insurgent campaign for Congress in Missouri...this is your sign. I'm current polling 5 points ahead of 14 yr incumbent Ann Wagner in a seat held by the GOP for 34 years. I need you now. We can take this across the finish line and change Missouri.

⚠️WOKE CONTENT⚠️™️ 🧵 These are the actual ax handles a white mob used to assault Black youth staging peaceful sit‑ins in Jacksonville, FL on August 27, 1960. That's right—children! True story.😪 Pull up a seat🪑, my friends. (cont) #ProudBlue #ResistanceRoots #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Ax Handle Saturday is not just a Jacksonville story. It’s a national reminder: segregation was enforced not only by law, but by organized white violence, official indifference, and youth courage that refused to break. Never forget this story. Tell it. Share it. ✊🏿✊🏼✊🏾 #KeepItWoke #DedicatedToTam✡️🕊

They came for Ilhan Omar before sunrise. Minneapolis came out that afternoon chanting her name. Trump can aim federal law enforcement at a congresswoman who challenges him, but he does not get to decide who speaks, who belongs, or who stays quiet. #momsky#sheshed #momthevote
