It is ballot curing time!

When ballots are filled out incorrectly as in signature or no ID or date many states won’t accept them, so there’s this handy tool called ballot curing.

In elections that are likely to be close this is the difference between us winning and Rs winning.

Dear The Hague,
The President/VP of the USA ordered a strike on a Venezuelan boat which would be considered a war crime. This only after colluding with Netanyahu to ethnically cleanse the Palestinian people so that he can build a mega resort.
I certainly hope an arrest warrant is imminent.

Oh. So Putin ate him for lunch?

Trump struggled to walk in a straight line as he went to greet Putin

Yes, attacks on Ukraine doubled since Trump took office. The violence in Gaza quadrupled as well unlike when Democrats held power and we were limiting arms shipments and building our own docks to deliver aid.

Its a VERY relevant question...questioning about the sanity of the so called "leader" of the free world.

The Epstein issue isn't going away Teflon Don seems to have finally met his match

"Trump’s supporters voted for him believing that he would be the one who could expose the systemic corruption that allows powerful elites to get away with heinous crimes. Instead, they’re learning that not only does Trump have no intention of exposing that corruption, he’s actually entrenching it."

The Little-Noted Trump-DOJ Move That Should Scare the Hell Out of You The Justice Department is looking at criminal charges against local election officials who don’t “safeguard” their systems. And yes, it’s as bad as it sounds.

Trump attempting to discredit and seize control over elections via lies about cybersecurity should terrify everyone. We can’t let this happen.

Details of the great big beautiful
bill:

Dear Judge Farbiarz: Petitioner respectfully writes with an urgent request for this Court's intervention regarding his ongoing detention. Specifically, and for the reasons set forth below and to aid in his habeas and proceedings, Petitioner requests that this Court issue an order: (1) requiring the LaSalle Detention Facility to permit Mr. Khalil to have a private contact visit with his wife, Dr. Abdalla, and newborn child today, May 21, 2025, for two hours' and/or (2) at a minimum, permit Dr. Abdalla to join a contact visit currently scheduled with immigration counsel at LaSalle so the legal team can discuss legal strategy and facts known collectively between Dr. Abdalla and Mr. Khalil and which is relevant to his pending habeas case and for pending motions in his immigration proceedings. One of the first orders issued in this case was to direct the U.S. Attorney's office to ensure that DHS would provide regular access to counsel, Khalil v. Joyce, 1:25-cv-01935, ECF 29 (S.D.N.Y.), which is an equitable power this Court retains and authorizes the relief requested modest as it is as compared to the painful costs of denial. As the Court is aware, the Khalil family welcomed their first child one month ago, on April 21, 2025. In order to provide the most indispensable human connection and to help Mr. Khalil prepare for his ongoing habeas proceeding and for the upcoming immigration hearing, Petitioner's wife and his newborn baby have traveled over 6 hours and 1500 miles to visit Mr. Khalil in detention, which will be the first time he will be able to see or hold his family since his arrest and transfer to Louisiana, over 10 weeks ago. As this Court well knows, Mr. Khalil is purportedly in civil immigration detention, where he cannot be subject to punishment or retaliation; yet currently, routine legal or family visits only occur in a confined space permitting muffled communication through a full plexiglass window that permits no human touch.

Petitioner's counsel have made repeated requests for a contact visit to occur between Mr. Khalil and his wife and baby to the relevant ICE and GeoGroup administrators at the LaSalle Detention Facility in Jena. Such a visit is necessary for the most elementary human reasons and given the ongoing strain of his pending habeas petition, this visit is critical to ensure Mr. Khalil, who is an active participant his legal case, can continue to meaningfully contribute to the proceedings before this Court. The relevant administrators have responded that they are unable to accommodate this request, including a confirmation of this refusal this morning. (Email correspondence attached as Exhibit A). ICE policy authorizes contact visits between detained individuals and family members, subject to the reasonable discretion of DHS officials? The refusal to permit a contact visit is not reasonable and is further evidence of the retaliatory motive behind Mr. Khalil's arrest and faraway detention as well as the ongoing punitive nature of his detention. Petitioner, his wife and infant son are, as all the evidence in this case demonstrates, the farthest thing from a security risk It is the government who chose to detain Mr. Khalil and send him 1500 miles from his family rather than detain him, as they could have (and as we have requested in seeking a transfer there), in Elizabeth, New Jersey, where counsel confirmed with an EDC official that family contact visits are ordinarily provided on a daily basis and where a parent is permitted to hold their child. 3 In addition, a legal contact visit has been authorized for today between Mr. Khalil and his counsel, from 11-3pm CT. It thus appears the facility can accommodate contact visits absent a plexiglass barrier. Thus, the facility should make accommodations during or after this time for a private in-person visit where the family can be alone together for the first time. In addition, and at a minimum, counsel needs to meet with Petitioner …

NEW: Mahmoud Khalil's attorneys urgently ask Judge Farbiarz to order ICE to permit Khalil to hold his newborn son today "for the most elementary human reasons." ICE has so far denied the request, despite his wife and child having made the 1,500-mile trip. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

“The Day of German Literature” took place 92 years ago today.

Nazi students & right-wing groups staged book burnings targeting works by Jewish, leftist and other non-conforming authors.

These burnings were a deliberate attempt to control thought and limit access to diverse perspectives.
