Billionaires shouldn't get to decide which stories are told or who gets heard. That's exactly what's happening behind Paramount's $110B merger with Warner Bros. Discovery. Last week a judge temporarily halted it and we'll keep fighting until it's blocked for once and for all.
After being pressed during his confirmation hearings, Todd Blanche finally met with Epstein survivors. Read what they had to say about their meeting with Blanche. https://www.commoncause.org/articles/what-epstein-survivors-are-saying-about-todd-blanche/
What Epstein Survivors Are Saying About Todd Blanche
Here’s what those survivors are saying about their in-person meeting with the person most responsible for the bungled release of the files.

This new bill isn't reform—it's a cover-up. It would make it easier for members of Congress to hide financial conflicts while making it harder for eligible Americans to vote. It’s time to pass a real congressional stock trading ban.
A federal judge just hit pause on Paramount's $110B takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery. Billionaires shouldn't get to decide what Americans watch, read, and hear. Keep the merger on hold. Block this media monopoly.
What’s the biggest takeaway from Todd Blanche’s confirmation hearing last week? Survivors should never have to wait until a senator’s swing vote is on the line before someone decides they’re worth hearing. Read our latest Substack article: https://bit.ly/44AJdue

If Senators Cornyn and Tillis confirm Todd Blanche, they're sending the message that loyalty to Trump matters more than justice. Texas and North Carolina, tell your senators to #BlockBlanche https://act.commoncause.org/petitions/reject-todd-blanche-for-attorney-general//?source=socmed_20260705_todd

“Nothing in this speech lowers gas prices. It doesn’t make groceries safer. It doesn’t stop wars. Americans are tired of distractions. We need leaders focused on making life better today, NOT yesterday’s grievances.” - Virginia Kase Solomón, President and CEO of Common Cause
Don't fall for the distraction. A primetime address can't hide the real problems: new foreign wars, unsafe food, and rising prices squeezing working families.
The Attorney General should serve the interests of the people. Sen. John Cornyn said it himself. Now it's time to live up to those words. Common Cause is on the ground in Texas urging him to #BlockBlanche. Americans deserve an independent DOJ—not Todd Blanche.
The EAC is an independent, bi-partisan organization to support elections. President Trump just gutted it. Read about what this means for the upcoming mid-terms in this week's Substack: https://bit.ly/4pkvbX3
"Our democracy deserves an Attorney General who serves the people—not the president." Our President & CEO Virginia Kase Solomón lays out exactly what's at stake in her latest @democracydocket.com op-ed. The Senate must reject Todd Blanche's nomination. https://bit.ly/4wKvugm

Not Fit to Serve: The Backlash to Todd Blanche’s Nomination
Here’s how a few Common Cause members are responding to Blanche’s nomination:

Senator Kennedy: "Are you and President Trump friends?" Todd Blanche: "I'm his lawyer—was his lawyer" Looks like someone is telling on themselves. 👀
Watch our President and CEO, @virginiaksolomon.bsky.social, on The @joyannreid.bsky.social Show discussing why Todd Blanche is the wrong choice for Attorney General. Blanche has shown where his loyalties lie, and it's not with the American people. #BlockBlanche
A federal judge just confirmed what we said from the start: a president can't use the courts to enrich himself. Todd Blanche helped push this baseless scheme. That's exactly why he's unfit to be Attorney General. The Senate must #RejectBlanche.

NEW: President Trump just fired EVERY single member of the bipartisan federal agency that helps states run smooth elections. It's designed to cause chaos for voters in November. It's part of his break glass in case of emergency plan: create chaos, then use that chaos to cast doubt on the results.
The murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo marks the 10th fatal shooting by immigration officials during Trump's second term. Ten lives. Ten families forever changed. At Common Cause, we believe our government should be transparent and held accountable when lives are taken. #ICEOut
