Alaska authorities strongly oppose the Trump DOJ’s attempted “interference” in the election. This is significant because there were concerns the state—which sought to DQ the second Sullivan—would take the same side. But it didn’t. Quite the contrary. buff.ly/EJHtDpX

Per a new report from House Democrats, Trump's DOJ is withholding evidence of his ties to Epstein and slow-walking the complete release of the Epstein files. It's time to end the cover-up and expose the truth. Remember this when you cast your ballot. www.ms.now/news/house-j...

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.

“Chaos tax” is pretty good
Gov. Shapiro delivers a blistering assessment of Trump's Iran war: “He had no idea why he was going in. Never made the case to the American people.” Shapiro points to 21 American families who have lost loved ones, skyrocketing fuel costs, and a $3,100 “CHAOS TAX” hitting Pennsylvania households.
