NEW: Appeals court rejects DOJ’s request for quick action in California voting case. On a 2-1 vote, the Ninth Circuit held that it had no jurisdiction to hear the appeal now. Instead, a previously set TRO hearing at the district court should proceed on Tuesday. Tonight, at Law Dork:

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

This isn’t in our “national interest.” It doesn’t lower our prices or create opportunities for Americans — It just actively emboldens Putin in his illegal and immoral war against Ukraine. Enough.

Citizen At Large (formerly San Diego at Large) reposted

If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

This is a banger of a scoop. #woah

Two extraordinary stories today alleging fresh corruption in Trump's ranks. On the very day Rubio, at the Acropolis, sought to kick-start his presidential campaign, the US Ambassador to Greece is in deep manure.... 1/2 www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Ken Paxton: The criticism has been that I let a child predator out after one day. Well guess what? They served 60 days.

Why even show video at all? I don’t want to see him or hear his lies and screeds verbatim, anyway. Journalists should only quote legitimate sources they have vetted outside of the WH press office. Report on his *actions* but shun his entire BS media demands.

There is something so unbelievably bleak about an article that calmly walks readers through how to navigate being laid off after 50, losing your health insurance, and somehow surviving the years until Medicare. What a broken country.

Symbols matter. White House isn't a palace. Kennedy Center is for the general public to enjoy. We don't have a triumphal arch in DC because that's imperial. We don't put the president's face on money because it's monarchical. It's about tearing down everything that says we're a democratic republic.

I know there’s a savvy take that being attached to the east wing or the kennedy center is a sort of west wing lame-o attachment to the symbols of power and on the other hand he fucking bulldozed our collective property

we have immigrant concentration camps, diarrhea lettuce, zillion dollar gas, suicidal soldiers, measles resurgence, national park land sold to the highest bidder and teachers crowdfunding school supplies, but the real problems facing our country are a muslim senate candidate and an influencer

🚨🚨🚨 Under current administration: debt is *larger* than economy #GOP #Complicit #RepublicanFailures #VoteThemAllOut

Marketplace@marketplace.org

For the first time since World War II, the country’s debt is actually larger than the economy itself. Driven by surging federal spending, the government has already borrowed almost $2 trillion in fiscal year 2026 and is on track to borrow even more before the year is over.

Tales of everyday corruption. Pete Hegseth cancelled the $400,000 contract for making uniforms for the Blue Angels on the grounds that the contract with "The Sewing Box" was DEI since the firm is Black-owned. Instead, he awarded it to a Trump donor for $1,690,000, a 325% price increase!

RFKJr claims Lyme disease was created by scientists,which is the closest he’s come to admitting that science exists. Meanwhile, Ötzi the Iceman, who died more than 5.3K years ago, had Lyme disease. Apparently prehistoric humans are part of the conspiracy. Get me off this timeline

Any Senator who votes to confirm Todd Blanche is also siding with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell – and is actively participating in covering-up their numerous and heinous crimes.
