Watch this with Trump at his side, remember the dissents in the birthright citizenship case — www.lawdork.com/p/six-opinio... — and understand there are no limits, no places they wouldn’t go.

I am so horrified, so sick at the thought of this I can’t sleep. Their is something truly evil in our dna

This is how they cheat you out of your right to vote. Don’t let them win.

Trump's sellout to Putin is the worst example of corruption in American history, but Trump has scared most of the media from putting it all together in three words: Russia, Russia, Russia. Here Marcy Wheeler ties it all together in 12 minutes.

Here's a supercut of JD Vance having a hard time answering questions about the sluggish economy, Trump's corruption, why the US hasn't already won the Iran war, and more during the CBS town hall that aired tonight

This is exactly the right approach — openly mock the bigots as small-minded and cowardly and weak and proudly embrace diversity as a sign of our strength and success

SCOTUS has blocked the USPS rule that Trump demanded in a bid to restrict mail voting. But a different USPS policy affecting when mail is postmarked could still pose obstacles. Experts say people should mail forms and ballots as early as they can.

Journalists who report Sam Alito's assurances that overturning same-sex marriage is "not realistic" without acknowledging that the conservative legal movement spent five decades building a Supreme Court that would overturn Roe v. Wade are, for all intents and purposes, lying to you

For those idiotic racists in the room

Common Cause just told a federal judge that Trump's taxpayer funded propaganda ads ran hundreds of times after a TRO ordered an immediate halt to them. The two-page notice buff.ly/u2GESdN

Ossoff: The money that they took from you when they slashed Medicaid and defunded hospitals and nursing homes—They’re taking that money to buy corrupt, taxpayer-funded political ads on national television to try to promote the failed and broken president…

Republicans have reacted with anger to state court rulings that shielded popular initiatives and stalled GOP gerrymanders. In Utah, the GOP expanded the state supreme court; in Missouri, conservatives threatened to impeach justices this month.

WSJ Exclusive: The Trump admin used federal funds from the Department of Homeland Security to finance those controversial pro-Trump ads that started airing on TV. The taxpayer money used to fund the ads came from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Trump’s mail voting restrictions would have disenfranchised thousands if the Supreme Court had allowed them. But Trump’s plan to restrict mail voting was supposed to be even more prohibitive, with the help of two election conspiracists inside the White House. More from this shocking report:

NEW: ProPublica’s reporting reveals for the first time the extent of the White House’s role in trying to dictate how mail-in ballots are processed, spurring behind-the-scenes drama that played out for nearly a year.

Breaking: Supreme Court, over the Dissent of at Least the Three Democratic Appointed Justices, Allows States to Use Unreliable SAVE Database to Bulk Check Voter Citizenship Information (Now Updated with Analysis) electionlawblog.org/2026/breakin...

A nightmare. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/u...

(Bloomberg) -- “The US Supreme Court reinstated President Donald Trump’s expansion of a federal database to help verify voter eligibility for the midterms, putting on hold a judge’s finding that the government is misusing Social Security information and violating privacy rights.”

I will write this more in days ahead. But it is really important to know that (on Xitter) Stephen Miller is trying to stave off being blamed for the catastrophe that is now predicted to happen to the GOP. Frantically. [ahem] I'd like to prevent this from happening.

new, extraordinarily important, distressing reporting by @burness.bsky.social

The Supreme Court has restricted the criteria for claims against federal agents. But some states, including Maine, have sought to ensure that there’s a pathway for individuals to sue federal officials by creating them in state law.

Your vote is power, and today we celebrate and honor the Black voters who have been the backbone of democracy in South Carolina and across this nation! Black voters built this party. Black voters saved this democracy. And Black voters are going to flip the Future of South Carolina on November 3rd

NEW: As Trump loses ground and lashes out, some remain willing to capitulate when it comes to anti-trans hate. More alarming settlements from medical providers in states that have laws aimed at stopping anti-trans discrimination. On Friday, it was NYU Langone and UPMC. Law Dork:

Genuinely an insane paragraph from Sam Alito. “Voter fraud is real and scary and we have to stop it, so the fact that implementing Trump’s mail ballot rule will disenfranchise millions is legally irrelevant.” Brain melted. A right-wing podcaster in a robe. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

the truly crazy making part of all of this is that voter fraud EFFECTIVELY DOES NOT EXIST. you have a better chance of finding an actual leprechaun at the end of the rainbow than of finding evidence of voter fraud that influences an election

NEW: It's one of the most important elections this fall if you care about voting rights. Anita Earls was a career civil rights attorney before she joined North Carolina’s Supreme Court. Now she faces a Republican who has pushed many of the GOP election laws you’ve no doubt heard about.

Dr. Jermaine Johnson is fighting for a New SC where every South Carolinian can thrive. This isn’t a dream. It’s a plan. After 24 years of Republican supermajority rule, SC deserves a change. It’s time for a New SC. #SCdemocrats #JermaineJohnson #NewSC

The universal view of experts, @becingber.bsky.social explains, is that the Trump administration's killings at sea are murder under domestic law, extrajudicial killings under international law, and given their systematic nature, may well be crimes against humanity.

NEW: In a loss for Georgia voters, the 11th Circuit killed a 2023 ruling that forced the state to redraw its political maps to strengthen Black voting power. The move, which sends the case back to a lower court for reconsideration, comes in light of SCOTUS' gutting of the Voting Rights Act.
