Raw Story: Joyce Vance on Trump wanting SCOTUS to rule that USPS can create a national voter database & only send mail-in ballots to people on that list: “Trump filed the appeal less than 100 days before the midterms, which means he's concerned about losing power. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed
Blumenthal on Blanche's "walk back" of Trump's slush fund: "Commentators have talked about 'loop holes.' There are no loop holes here. This document itself is a sham ... tomorrow Donald Trump's counsel can go to court and seek to establish that thug fund if he chooses to do so."
CARTOON OF THE DAY (if you know who made this let us know)
Donald Trump and Jeanine Pirro tried to put an innocent man in jail rather than admit the contractor Trump paid $14 million to renovate the reflecting pool did a shitty job. They’d rather destroy a person’s life than admit they were wrong. Post Anything Here: interactink.vercel.app
This donkey remembered the girl who raised it years later, and the reunion is pure emotion. Donkeys never forget the people who cared for them.
PERSON OF THE DAY. 30 July 1958. Singer-songwriter Kate Bush was born in Bexleyheath, Kent. She was 1st woman to have a self-composed UK No 1 hit with Wuthering Heights. Bush was born on the 140th anniversary of the birth of the author who inspired her song, Emily Brontë.
Todd Blanche has refused to release the Epstein files while continuing to shield abusers and pedophiles. Oversight Dems are united in calling on the Senate to REJECT his nomination for Attorney General.
It's good that Sen. John Cornyn is blocking Todd Blanche's confirmation as AG until he relents on giving Trump immunity from IRS audits. But what about the Epstein files? Blanche is *violating the law* by not releasing all the Epstein files. Also, there are many other reasons to reject Blanche.
Some really encouraging Senate polls… 📍Georgia 🔵 Jon Ossoff: 56% 🔴 Mike Collins: 43% 📍North Carolina 🔵 Roy Cooper: 53% 🔴 Michael Whatley: 44% 📍Ohio 🔵 Sherrod Brown: 53% 🔴 Jon Husted: 45% 📍Iowa 🔵 Josh Turek: 50% 🔴 Ashley Hinson: 46% Keep organizing. Keep fighting.
Any vote for Todd Blanche is a vote to continue covering up the Epstein Files.

NEWS: Top Trump ally calls for his impeachment and removal. I spent the day with Epstein survivors in Congress, and because of their work, Todd Blanche's nomination is in major trouble. Some people unsubscribed because I talk too much about Epstein. I don't think I've talked enough. I won't stop.

Good evening, everyone.

You know the Epstein files are *bad* when Donald is drawing our attention back to COVID, his most deadly blunder, to distract from them.
Why are the people that can't read history always the ones trying to rewrite it?
Part D subsidy changes hit in 90 days. Seniors pay more at the pharmacy, pharma companies pay nothing. Trump admin says it's not a "cut" — tell that to retirees whose copays just tripled. Call your rep: block Medicare cost-shifting now. #Pinks #SheShed #ProudBlue #OneV1
JAW-DROPPING PLOT: Trump overruled his own administration to block the release of federal disaster aid to four Democratic-led states that did not vote for him in the 2024 election, according to a report.

The same Mitch McConnell who stole two Supreme Court seats so he could overturn Roe v Wade, deregulate companies by gutting the power of administrative agencies, and obliterate the Voting Rights Act
Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com · last wk.Dead or alive, Mitch McConnell is on extended medical leave — on your dime. This is the same Mitch McConnell who voted against: paid family and medical leave for everyone else.
The Rigpublicans wanted a KING. They got an insecure man with a smartphone and the attention span of a goldfish. Policy? Who needs policy when you’ve got grievances! Total disaster. The WORST executive in history. SAD!
We are 100 days from the midterm elections. Democrats have a clear path to the majority in the House and Senate. Trump and the GOP's only strategy is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat. We will fight them in every district and in every state. And when we fight we win!
#BlueWaveIn100Days If eligible voters will vote in November and vote for Democrats it‘s very likely they will win the House. We can do the Senate too if enough voters who are disgusted and angry will just go vote for Democrats!
