President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice suffered its 19th straight voter roll loss Friday, as a federal judge dismissed its Illinois lawsuit with prejudice and ruled the department lacks authority to seize the state’s unredacted voter database. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
After brutal Illinois defeat, Trump DOJ’s voter roll crusade is 0 for 19
DOJ has appealed nearly all of its voter roll defeats. Yet no court to date has ordered a state to provide the department with an unredacted statewide voter database.

Plus he’s dead so he’s also a fraud and he’s STILL getting paid 💀
Qasim Rashid, Esq.@qasimrashid.com · last wk.Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 6 weeks(!) in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave—is now getting all three.
This is what I have verified about Taylor Farms and this administration: 1. Bruce Taylor met with Trump on 07/16/26. 3. The FDA reversed its previous warning about Taylor Farms on 07/19/26. 4. Taylor Farms gave $1 million to Trump's PAC. I don't know when, but that's what got Taylor the meeting.
#LindseyGraham knew what Trump was, and followed him anyway. And many people suffered and will suffer evil from that, evil THEY did not deserve.
