Winsome Earle-Sears on Obama: "Last year, he told everybody to vote for the Black woman. Well, here I am. Here I am and now he's singing a different tune. Hypocrisy all the way."

Specifically naming the Comey and James prosecutions in this end-run around the appointment problem isn't going to help with the selective and vindictive prosecution motions.

Attorney General Pam Bondi says she has retroactively appointed former Trump attorney Lindsey Halligan as a "special attorney" for DOJ and has "ratified" all of her actions to date, including her presentations to the grand juries that indicted Trump's foes.

God I’m having a bad response to the people a year ago. Sigh. Glad that there’s been a change.

A few days after the presidential election one year ago, we went to Fordham Road in the Bronx.

It was a little different last week.

We strongly condemn @CondéNast’s consolidation plans for Teen Vogue, a move that is clearly designed to blunt the award-winning magazine’s insightful journalism at a time when it is needed the most. More from our statement:

Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28.

If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.

We're suing the U.S. Department of Education for weaponizing the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program.

This administration is trying to illegally cut off loan forgiveness eligibility for organizations and governments based off ideals it doesn't agree with.

I'm fighting back.

Undocumented immigrants are not and have never been eligible for federal SNAP benefits. So when Republicans cut $186 billion from SNAP and when they slow-roll funding for SNAP, they’re hurting American citizens only.

Who receives SNAP? Food aid for 1 in 8 Americans is threatened in November.

A look into the Americans who could be affected by the delay of SNAP food assistance during the government shutdown.

Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner, a national figurehead of the reform prosecutor movement, is seeking a third term tomorrow.

He faces Pat Dugan, who is running as the Republican nominee after losing to Krasner in the May Democratic primary.

Your Guide to the 2025 Prosecutor Elections

Key races will shape the politics of criminal justice from Philly to Seattle—plus a wild card in New Jersey. But most of November’s 66 prosecutor races feature just one candidate, as usual.
