🚨BREAKING: In a win for voters, a federal judge dismissed the DOJ's lawsuit seeking to undermine Alaska's U.S. Senate race. As a result, the state cannot be forced to segregate ballots of those who cast a vote for the independent candidate.
Reminder Schumer said his main priority as a leader was to ensure Israel gets all the aid it needs. He said this in FEBRUARY. He has also said NOTHING about the weaponized attacks against Ilhan Omar, a Democrat.
No president has pardoned more fraudsters or nullified more financial awards for fraud through those pardons than Donald Trump. But he knows what matters to his fans is not the fraud but being able to look down on black people. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/19/u... bsky.app/profile/pale...
Trump Vowed to Crack Down on Fraudsters, but He’s Pardoned Dozens
Across both of his terms, President Trump has granted clemency to more than 70 allies, donors and others convicted in fraud cases.

this is someone who seems to delusionally believe that has a big constituency which will follow her in opposition to the party nominee. the more likely outcome, i think, is that people decide this is sour grapes from a loser
Phil Lewis@phillewis.bsky.social · 54m agoHaley Stevens says she is endorsing Mike Rogers for the U.S. Senate
Desperate and pathetic and she will lose. I'm looking forward to a full debrief after the election about which Dem elites backed her and why and whether they have learned anything. But for now, pedal to the metal on GOTV!!
The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 1h agoBreaking news: Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Michigan) made a surprise appearance with Republican Senate candidate Mike Rogers in Detroit, following days of tension with the Democratic nominee, Abdul El-Sayed, who defeated her in the primary.
Every election cycle we have to hear again and again how the pro-Bernie-and-AOC left flank is going to betray the Democratic Party, until it's betrayed by the pro-big-donor party Establishment and the so-called liberal media Every time

Dean Baker@deanbaker13.bsky.social · 6h agoNYT is going all out in its effort to promote fascism, having yet another piece on the Dems' Dan Sullivan ballot effort in Alaska. This time with a literally 100% nonsense piece on ranked-choice voting www.nytimes.com/2026/11/01/u...
Wow — a protester yells “Haley Stevens is a traitor!” and Stevens then wraps up her news conference with Mike Rogers in a hurry
How much money did she get. That's the only real question left here.

Stevens was cooked in the Democratic Party after her behavior Wednesday-Friday. And she doesn't seem to have many core convictions beyond 1. personal ambition 2. Israel. So while I am outraged and stunned by this move, it's in line with her beliefs/incentives. GOP might support her future runs.

Ari Berman@ariberman.bsky.social · yesterdayTrump is reprising Four Seasons Total Landscaping election denialism with absurd lawsuits in Alaska & California, I told @dahlialithwick.bsky.social. We need to vote in massive numbers to fight it. Good news is that’s already happening, especially with Black voters in South slate.com/podcasts/ami...
I don’t doubt that Trump and his thugs will do anything they can to subvert the will of the people before, during and after the election. But a massive turnout will override this criminal operation. Our fate as a democracy depends on it.

Adam Klasfeld@klasfeldreports.com · 23h agoThe latest @ACLU.org motion nails what makes the Trump regime's Alaska lawsuit an authoritarian disgrace.

There are now at least 15 counties in Texas whose early vote has surpassed the total ballots cast in the 2022 election, including election day. At this point I expect to see several counties in Texas exceed 2024 turnout, once election day votes are factored in.

We are in a constitutional crisis in which the president is using the DOJ to target political opponents and disenfranchise voters and overturn the outcomes of elections. Meanwhile the legacy media treats this as clever strategy and both sides ignoring past norms.
