JD Vance blatantly lied about being on a pro-peace ticket while saying Kamala Harris would start WWIII and war with Iran.

It was the most dishonest campaign in the history of modern politics.

Donald Trump told Congress that voting was a privilege. My life's work is defending voting as a fundamental right.

ICE whistleblower comes forward to testify before Congress Ryan Schwank, a former ICE academy instructor, is expected to testify that ICE β€œis lying to Congress and the American people” about its training program.

Breaking MS NOW:

An ICE whistleblower is expected to testify at a congressional forum today that the agency is "lying to Congress and the American people" about its training of new recruits.

Ryan Schwank was an ICE academy instructor for new recruits before he resigned earlier this month.

β€œ.. We could spend the whole day reacting to every buffoonish spectacle coming out of the White House, but that's exactly what they want: for us to lose focus …

Right-wing influencers are going viral claiming voter fraud. The problem? They’re wrong β€œA lot of this is about homeless people, or people who are in sort of dire situations financially, living in buildings that are condemned… and moving, and therefore the building no longer exists. But ...

Right-wing influencers like Johnson were primarily taking aim at homeless and transitional housing β€” and exaggerating their β€œfindings.” It’s a strategy state election officials have long been aware of. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/rig...

Trump has never accepted election results and he is only getting worse While Trump has been banging the rigged-election drum for years, it is getting worse.

As Trump threatens this year’s elections, he operates against the cold reality that he has never accepted an election he lost. He won’t accept it when he loses control of Congress this fall. He will try to overturn it however he can, with the full range of tools available to him as president.

Starmer’s Chief of Staff Resigns, Citing Role in Hiring Friend of Epstein

Y'all need to pay attention to what's happening in Europe. They're not messing around. The Epstein scandal is causing heads to roll.

In America, eh, not so much. I wonder why.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.

He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

The president of the United States had his DOJ raid the Fulton County election office and seized ballots. This is clearly a dry run for 2026. Yet, this is treated by too many in legacy media as normal.

It's hard to overstate how ell-organized the portland march that got gassed was... organizers made the crowd promise to be peaceful, said the march would slow in front of the ICE building but not stop, that we would stick to one chant (ICE Out). They did absolutely everything right and got gassed.

If all these oligarchs named in the Epstein Files are totally innocent, surely they’d be in favor of an independent investigation into Epstein’s crimes.

Right?

Alabama uses Japanese American Internment era law to charge immigrants who don’t self-register Alabama is finding new ways to criminally charge undocumented immigrants

Do we need to say it louder? Here. Louder.

" Federal courts in Alabama are using a law last applied during the U.S. internment [incarceration] of people of Japanese descent during World War II to charge immigrants who don’t register themselves..."

Every serious analysis of the incident comes to the same conclusion…
it wasn’t self defense.

Fraud is rampant in farm and ethanol programs.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.

Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

The Government Unconstitutionally Labels ICE Observers as Domestic Terrorists A free country must have an absolute wall of protection for those who record government actions.

If ICE can threaten arrest for filming, then journalists, watchdogs, and protesters can all be silenced the same way. You don’t have freedom of the press if recording police is treated as terrorism. Β #holdfast
