In other words, going from a constitutional right (Roe) to a constitutional state by state decision (Dobbs) to a constitutional rule of no abortions. What is the DOJ/legal underpinning for that? There isn't one. Ladies & Gentlemen, your lawless soon-to-be AG. www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

Blanche assures anti-abortion supporters that Dobbs will be β€˜permanent in every single state’

The acting attorney general made the remarks during a private call with faith leaders.

Hey y'all in blue states! I'm pretty pissed that krasnov is denying funds and services to our states because we didn't vote for him. I call bullshit! I'm also calling my governor and let him know that I wish to opt out of any federal taxes & the state should too! #SoftSecession Quit paying!πŸ›‘

Another reminder that local and state elections are as, if not more important than national ones. Black voters must focus on winning back state houses, city councils, state Supreme Courts and governors' mansions. That should be the No. 1 priority when voting this midterm- take back your power!

The NAACP has released a statement while the Tarrant County Commissioners Court considers a proposal today that would cut the number of Election Day polling locations nearly in half "Let's call this what it is… voter suppression"

Tarrant County, Texas, could see around 50 percent fewer polling locations in November's election.

"Let's call this what it is… voter suppression," said NAACP President and CEO Derrick Johnson. "Cutting nearly half the places where people can cast a ballot doesn't save democracy money, it costs voters their voice. Tarrant County is home to a significant number of Black and Latino voters and is a majority people-of-color county. There is no question that this plan strips away polling access on a scale that will hit Black and Brown voters hardest. That is not a coincidence. It’s an intentional assault on our ability to make our voices heard and we will push back with every tool available.”

This hasn’t gotten much attention, but it should. While everyone was focused on Schedule F, the administration created something even broader. On July 30, a new OPM rule took effect that creates a second way to fire federal employees outside the normal civil service process.
