More than 70,000 voters will stay on North Carolina voter rolls after settlement Republicans had filed a lawsuit alleging that a quarter million voters in the battleground state had been improperly registered.

“This latest victory is a win for Americans and yet another blow to the Republicans’ scheme to disenfranchise voters ahead of the midterm elections,” DNC chair Ken Martin said in a statement after the settlement.

A few reminders about the SCOTUS immunity decision for Presidents:

It does not provide immunity for prior crimes.

It does not provide immunity to the President's cabinet.

Similar to Roe v. Wade, it can be overturned in the future.

Miller hates the 5th amendment right to due process and has contempt for the 6th amendment right to jury trial because he prefers authoritarianism.

It’s a tradition. Every four years, right before Christmas, Rafael Cruz announces that he’s waddling for president again.

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.

That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Judge orders Trump administration to end National Guard deployment in DC A federal judge is ordering the Trump administration to end its monthslong deployment of National Guard troops to help police the nation’s capital. U.S.

Excellent news! Especially considering their deployment was based on fabricated crime statistics.

Judge orders Trump administration to release billions in SNAP contingency funds The government did rely on contingency funding to keep food aid going when it shut down during President Donald Trump’s first term.

Great news; let’s see if Felon47 fights it. The money has been there for several years. America’s taxpayers paid this LONG ago. The only point to withholding it is CRUELTY and trying to bully democrats.

I can’t wait for our Nuremberg trials. #Voices4Victory

Billie Eilish is donating $11.5 million from the proceeds from her "Hit Me Hard and Soft" tour to organizations combatting food inequity and combating the climate crisis.

Celebrities should not have to do this but we have a Federal administration majority party right now that is entirely MIA.

Told ya. Now what was that about Tylenol? Maybe Paxton in Texas will sue Trump now since he allowed it to take over the nation unchecked. Probably not.

Ohio approves new map giving Republicans a leg up in two more House seats The new map received rare bipartisan agreement because Republicans who control the state legislature did not want to risk an election challenge from Democrats.

Ken Paxton has his head so far up Trump’s a$$ a colonoscopy would give him a headache. This is absurd. We know it and they know it. Just more of criminal, lying cheating Paxton trying to get in the WH.

Arizona AG sues over Speaker Mike Johnson refusing to seat new House member Arizona’s attorney general sued the House after Speaker Mike Johnson (R-Louisiana) refused to swear in a Democrat who won a special election a month ago.

It’s unfathomable that a state has to sue the Speaker of the House to force him to swear in an elected MoC.

It’s purely evil that his inaction is to protect a child rapist.

U.S. kills 6 alleged drug smugglers in new strike off Venezuela, Trump says The operation follows Senate Republicans’ narrow defeat of a measure that aimed to prevent the administration’s actions on legal grounds.

I want to see some proof these were drug smugglers because this all reeks of Trump and Hegseth just playing Battleship. How about you? #Voices4Victory

Column | Kimmel’s suspension confirms what many suspected after Colbert’s cancellation Media companies must punish Trump critics if they want their mega-mergers approved.

Kimmel never said a word about Charlie Kirk. He criticized MAGA. So Disney cancelled him so the FCC under the Trump would approve the big broadcasting merger. Because MAGA got up in their feelings, they’ve taken a torch to the 1st Amendment. This is authoritarianism. 🎁 article

“Our civil rights unit is going to take yours away.”

Remember Nory and her mom Estela? Here’s the devastating update.

ICE took Estela’s blood pressure meds when they deported her. She was too afraid to leave home for refills because the same gangs that beat her in Guatemala were still waiting.

She died at 45 because she didn’t have her medication.

Man in Chicago fatally shot by ICE officer after allegedly resisting arrest An immigration officer opened fire after he was hit and dragged by a vehicle driven by an undocumented immigrant, the Department of Homeland Security said.

My God this is awful. But how bad is it when the worst thing isn’t this man’s death, but the question of was this ICE “officer” actually an officer? They show no badge, cover their faces, and wear no official uniform except the camo you can get on Amazon. 🎁 article

I said what I said.

Trump administration use of National Guard in L.A. violated law, judge rules The judge sharply reprimanded the Trump administration for its use of troops during immigration actions. He also stayed his ruling until next week.

Not a surprise but good to see this judge’s ruling. Everything Trump does breaks the law. 🎁 article

Today’s update from Weirdo HQ.

$ Billions spent on the wall. They paint it black so it’s too hot to touch, but on the American side, and now this. That wall is more propaganda than a barrier.

If you saw this anywhere else, you’d call it a gate or a fence.

Dems are apparently "looking for a platform" when the answer is right there: Stop running away from thing that actually help people.

Food, housing, healthcare, no genocides, everyone's rights and bodily autonomy protected, a livable world, and all of those things viciously, deftly defended, always.
