WSJ: The DOJ said it would withdraw subpoenas related to NYT reporters' recent articles after federal judge grilled prosecutors over whether they had followed proper procedures. "Are you going to do this again?" Judge Subramanian asked. "No, your Honor," said Sullivan. "Absolutely not."

Why was the follow-up question not "do you know if you were legitimately elected"? Anyone who supports a claim that someone else's election was rigged should have to justify their own election.

It’s time for Mike Johnson and John Thune to do their jobs and reconvene Congress. Recess doesn’t get to continue while Trump is threatening to annihilate 100 million people. If Thune and Johnson refuse to do their jobs, Schumer and Jeffries must bring Democrats back to DC to end this war.

Talarico: “We are all focused on the wrong 1%.” “Trans people aren’t taking away our healthcare. Undocumented people aren’t defunding our schools…It’s the billionaires and their puppet politicians...we need (media/people) to focus on the real problem at hand.”

Asked earlier today whether Americans should be worried about retaliatory attacks at home, Trump said: “I guess.” “Like I said, some people will die. When you go to war, some people will die.” He can’t even pretend to give a single fuck about human life. Truly a conscienceless sociopath.

I really need Democratic lawmakers to understand that we're fed up with them simply posting on social media "this has to stop" without calling for specific actions to make it stop. We know this needs to stop. We elected you. Tell us what needs to be done to make it stop.

It's a fascist power grab. And Congress has to put a stop to it.

Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Every member of Congress now attacking Jack Smith - performing outrage to win Trump's favor and deliberately mislead the American public - has forfeited the trust of their office and should be voted out in November. I truly hope the voters in those states show up and hold them accountable.

Toll records, aka Call Detail Records (CDRs), are detailed logs of phone calls or other telecommunications, showing who called whom, when, for how long, and from where (using cell tower data), used for billing, business analysis, and legal evidence. THEY DO NOT INCLUDE ANY SUBJECT MATTER.

House Republicans just adjourned their pro forma session. This is the SEVENTH time they’ve refused to swear in Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva. Do your job, Speaker Johnson.

FCC's website: "The limitations on the FCC's power to restrict or ban speech begin with the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which decrees that the federal government "shall make no law … abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press."

Accordingly, Congress through Section 326 of the Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. § 326, explicitly declared that nothing in the statuteshall be understood or construed to give the Commission the power of censorship over the [broadcast] communications or signals transmitted by any [broadcast] station,

Sharing this again because it’s such a great breakdown from Rep. Boyle on why, if you care about free and fair elections, we MUST pass CA Prop 50! @gavinnewsom.bsky.social
