NEW: In rare Sunday arguments, appeals court judges skeptical of DOJ’s California election lawsuit.
The lawsuits in California and Alaska are expected to fail — but they also show how far A.G. Todd Blanche will go to advance Trump’s aims.
Tonight, at Law Dork:
Donald Trump's deployment of California's National Guard in Los Angeles was an unlawful and unconstitutional abuse of power.
It was done over California’s objection — all in an effort to intimidate peaceful protestors advocating for immigrant rights.

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."
As always, Trump is right.
“Incumbent” is like “dumb.”
Unless you’re a stable genius like the president, you’d never know it has a “b.”
Obviously the election must be cancelled.
🚨Illinois Governor JB Pritzker calls for Trump to be REMOVED via the 25th Amendment: "There is something genuinely wrong with this man..."
The calls to remove Trump are growing LOUDER.
Trump is so rattled by Obama packing crowds that he’s inventing imaginary voters.
“If I ran against anybody right now, they say I’d win by 20-25 points… Look at the crowds. You have 20,000 people outside trying to get in. Obama was here yesterday. He didn’t have a very big crowd. It was sparse.”
Jesse Ventura: “If Donald Trump would have gone in the military, he would have been the guy that wet his bed, cried for his mom, went hysterical, and would be carted out in the middle of the night. The man’s a coward. He’s a bully. All bullies are cowards. That’s why they’re bullies”
Trump’s so jealous…
Obama packed the crowds in Ohio and Michigan yesterday, and Trump responds with this unhinged Truth Social meltdown.
Today, Trump has to show up in Michigan to campaign for Mike Rogers, after Obama brought down the house. 🍿
If you’re thinking of buying an Audi, don’t forget that an Audi executive appeared at a Trump rally this weekend to try to boost an American dictatorship. Make your car-buying decision accordingly.
BASH: The worry is that we end up in a situation where President Trump tries to overturn the election and the result of that could be like what we saw after January 6--
BLANCHE: Stop it! You gotta stop it with that! That's crazy
BASH: This is a president who has a history
Trump: "Our country is making hundreds of billions of dollars on oil. and then on top of it we have Venezuela, and we have Greenland! 'We're making trillions of dollars. But my people said 'please don't mention that, sir, because people are paying a little higher'... we're making a frickin' fortune"
Barack Obama doesn't need to lie about an uncle inventing radar to make us think he comes from a more intelligent family than Donald Trump's.
He just needs to open his mouth and speak a complete sentence.
Now THIS is a powerhouse duo! 🔥💙
Pete Buttigieg joined Jon Ossoff in Georgia TODAY, and I absolutely LOVE these two!
Smart, fearless, and fighting for a better America. This is the energy Democrats need heading into the midterms!

We are making the oil oligarchs rich. We are making Trump and his cronies rich. It is literally at our expense every day. There’s no trickling down happening. And Trump is bragging about it knowing nobody in the Republican Party will stand up to him and say enough.
Bernie Sanders: "I know conservative parents want to raise their kids to be honest, not to be bullies, not to lie and cheat all of the time. If we want to raise our kids to be honest, not to be narcissists who think the world revolves around them, then we need to hold Donald Trump accountable."
🚨 LEAKED VIDEO: MAGA candidate Joe Mitchell, who just presented Donald Trump with a “Man of the Century” award, is caught on camera complaining that he “doesn't have a big d*ck” while making racist and disparaging comments about Black women.
The dumbest takes are MAGA trying to claim Obama’s line about Trump making the WH look like a Cheesecake Factory is somehow elitist because CF fans will be offended that someone doesn’t want the WH to look like a chain restaurant. Even their culture war BS is lame this cycle.
BREAKING: Donald Trump is reportedly pissed because his lawyers just explained to him how pardoning all his staffers means they can no longer plead the 5th to protect him when Democrats subpoena them next year.
🔥 OBAMA: “The thing is, Iran didn’t have nuclear weapons — because I put a deal in place he pulled out of… and the war he started is why the price of everything is UP… how much time do you think Hegseth spends looking at himself in the mirror? These are not serious people.”
