USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later
Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

NEW: Epstein survivor Danielle Bensky confirms to me that the DOJ has failed to properly redact her name in the Epstein files.
This is her name, and she has confirmed this is an old phone number of hers. Both should have been redacted. Neither were.

While I truly dislike year end stories, I did one, and I’m breaking it into two parts. It’s important for us to remember where we were at the beginning of the year, the damage thats been done, but ultimately how we are on a better trajectory and should take hope.

"When it happens, Republicans will object (and you can only imagine the meltdown Trump himself will have on Truth Social). The response Dems give should be simple: *Too bad. We have the power now.* A strong message must be sent to the country and future generations that Trump will not be honored."
Why every vestige of Trump must be torn down
He's trying to create a physical legacy. The moment he's out of power, it has to be smashed to bits.

She has the microphone.
She has immunity.
If her concern were really about the victims, names in The Epstein Files would be said out loud — on the House floor.
Silence isn’t caution.
It’s a choice.

How we beat back the corporate takeover of America:
1. Break up corporate monopolies
2. Continue building union power
3. End Citizens United and get big money out of politics
Let’s keep working to unrig the system.

There’s a Silicon Valley billionaire freak out happening about a potential wealth tax ballot initiative in California.
I hope everybody understands—the only way to make billionaires pay a similar *income* tax rate as their secretaries is via taxing unrealized cap gains or wealth
