The majority wrote that, even though they have the authority to completely throw out the contested ballots, they decided to instead mandate a cure period for most of the challenged voters.

I don’t think people are paying enough attention to the fact that the North Carolina court of appeals just ruled that 65,000 votes don’t count, and that the Republican Supreme Court candidate who lost actually won.

This will be appealed, but make no mistake: they’re trying to steal this election.

A friend drove two hours today for her breast cancer chemotherapy only to learn it was canceled due to NIH cuts. Clinical trial ended midstream. No treatment, no restart, no plan, no information. Her bro-in-law's chemo was also canceled.

They're called public records for a reason. Starting today, WIRED will *stop paywalling* articles that are primarily based on public records obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, becoming the first publication to partner with @freedom.press to offer this for our new coverage.
Wired is dropping paywalls for FOIA-based reporting. Others should follow
As the administration does its best to hide public records from the public, Wired magazine is stepping up to help stem the secrecy

a US Senator asks the question that needs to be asked: is Trump a Russian asset? from the evidence I’ve seen, either he is working for Russia or he and Putin really want us to think he’s working for Russia. Either way, he’s got to go! youtube.com/shorts/9v-ov...

So, on the Credit Union front. There are rumors that the NCUA is going to RIF 20% of their workforce. They have already stopped publishing fees charged to members. For your information, NCUA employees are paid by SIFC(think FDIC for banks). This would be the very definition of wrongful terminations.
