The right-wing Supreme Court majority has once again shredded its credibility by rubber-stamping a racially gerrymandered map in Texas.

Republicans know the extremists can only win by cheating.

The people of California and beyond will prevent that from happening.

Anne Applebaum writes, "This war will end only when Russia stops fighting. The Russians need to halt the invasion, recognize the sovereignty of Ukraine, & drop their imperial ambitions."

So we need to drill down on exactly *why* Witkoff is trying to persuade Trump not to put pressure on Russia.
Why Does Steve Witkoff Keep Taking Russia’s Side?
Trump’s envoy isn’t promoting peace. His interventions are helping Vladimir Putin.

Had my hair done today. I’ve been going to the same small-town stylist for a decade. Want to know the topic of conversation in the ENTIRE salon?

Insurance premiums. Every one of us has been impacted.

The FBI pulled all-nighters and burned nearly $1M in OT trying to redact the Epstein files all the while Trumpworld argued over what to hide or release. The panic says more than the pages do. Transparency shouldn’t be optional. What are they hiding?

JUST IN: DHS Sec. Kristi Noem made the ultimate decision to defy a federal judge’s order to return detainees to the US from the torture prison, CECOT.

My take on the DOJ’s latest court filing that reveals Noem’s complicity with others like Todd Blanche and Emil Bove.

Trump deployed these National Guard troops to the streets of Washington to make a political point. Now they are either in critical condition or dead.

It’s tough to end political violence when you give mass pardons to those who participate in it.

A sad irony in Washington, D.C., where West Virginia National Guardsmen were shot today. Six days ago, a court ruled their deployment was illegal, but stayed the order pending appeal. My heart goes out to these public servants and their families. oag.dc.gov/sites/defaul...

Remember when he mocked everyone else for being “low energy”? Look at him now.

Nodding off, slurring, and cutting his days short because he cannot keep up. The myth of unstoppable Trump is long gone.

Reuters reached out to everyone that Trump or his subordinates singled out publicly for retribution, and reviewed hundreds of official orders, directives and public records. The result: the most comprehensive accounting yet of his campaign of payback.
