Today my law firm filed to intervene to fight DOJ's lawsuits to access confidential voter data in Colorado and Hawaii. We are now fighting to protect our clients' sensitive data in 16 of the 18 cases filed by DOJ (plus Fulton County). I expect we will file in the remaining 2 (DE and MA) this week.

A government ban on Hungary’s Pride parade backfired Saturday as over 100,000 people marched through Budapest, far more than usual

Meet Polly Jackson, a fearless conductor on the Underground Railroad. She defended freedom seekers from slave catchers by using a kettle of boiling water and a butcher knife. She was part of a strong community of free African Americans near Ripley, Ohio.
