In a decision Monday, U.S. District Judge Katherine Menendez dismissed the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) lawsuit to compel production of the sensitive voter data, like Social Security numbers and dates of birth. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
In 23rd loss for DOJ, federal judge rejects its demand for Minnesota voter rolls

Sickening that corporate media has been directed by their billionaire handlers to ask every Democrat about the DSA platform in an effort to divide the party, instead of the GOP platform of kidnapping, starvation, murder, and death.
Legacy media failed Americans once again on Sun. by not posing a single question about the Epstein Files & contempt of court to Todd Blanche. Instead, he made blanket assertions w/no push-back or follow-up. At least independent media is independent, even if the DOJ isn’t. youtu.be/RLpl0ILXCXo?...

These questions have now been asked of Blanche repeatedly & he gives the same bullshit answer each time. Here’s an idea: How about we ask Blanche direct and pointed questions about his noncompliance with court orders from Judge Sullivan compelling him to provide unredacted Epstein Files?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoWELKER: Can you pledge the DOJ will always act independently of the WH? BLANCHE: No, I'm not going to pledge that WELKER: So if the president asked you do to something that you feel crosses an ethical or legal line, would you do it? BLANCHE: He would never do that. He never has. He never will.

Black Wall Street was a lesson that was not taught in my hs history classes, although it was mentioned (I was lucky to be in the school system I was). I learned about it through PBS and the curiousity (and research skills) my librarian mother instilled.

It’s getting harder to classify Trump’s whack comments purely as lies because they’re so obviously false. It’s looking more and more like he’s lost his grip on reality.
