Former Republican election official buys Dominion Voting — a target of 2020 conspiracy theories Voting equipment company Dominion Voting Systems, a target of false conspiracy theories since the 2020 election, has been bought by a firm run by a former Republican elections official.

In under-the-radar news: a GOP-aligned former election official just bought Dominion Voting. He wants to mirror trump’s election directives. His other company, KnowInk, has been tied to multiple voting failures. Now he controls the machinery & our votes. That should scare everyone.

Sometimes you'll see someone being tagged as maga by skywatchblue because that person wrote something anti maga in their profile.

Don't use the word in your profile if you don't want that.

Chirping her affirmations to whatever the nearest Republican is saying? If she'd only incorporate the Tapper™️ head tilt before she interjects during the Democrat's response.

Opposition Filed Against DOJ Effort to Strike Context from Complaint About Qatar’s ‘Gifted’ Jet to Trump Administration - American Oversight As the DOJ refuses the prompt release of a memo clearing the Qatari jet ‘gift,’ Freedom of the Press Foundation, represented by American Oversight, argues against erasing this context and the agency’s...

The Trump administration says reporting about its acceptance of the Qatari jet is "scandalous" and "immaterial" and should be cut from our FOIA complaint.

The administration’s secrecy is the scandal.

Thanks to @weareoversight.bsky.social for working with @freedom.press to fight it.

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

Don’t mean to go all Bernie Sanders on you all, but we’re going to have to push back on the avalanche of money that these grifters will spend on elections

From medicine to mysticism: the radicalization of Florida's top doc Joseph Ladapo was a normie—until he met his wife and a guru into levitating and communicating with spirits.

Florida’s surgeon general’s anti-vax beliefs are only the tip of a very deeply weird iceberg.

Joseph Ladapo’s guiding voice? His wife, who believes she can talk to “Archangel Michael, Mary Magdalene, and many other beings of light.”

Mike Johnson is getting squeezed on all sides amid the government shutdown The mild-mannered, pious Johnson has so far avoided an internal rebellion in the House amid the shutdown. But, Eric Garcia writes, his luck might be running out

Ruben Gallego told me that "They teach in war all plans go to s*** when we first hit contact." This happened with Mike Johnson's gambit on the gov't shutdown. "I think they didn't realize that we weren't going to fold, and they didn't have a plan B after that."

When Trump demands prosecutions, his DOJ now obeys Donald Trump has long called for imprisoning his opponents. For the first time, he has a Justice Department willing to do his bidding.

NEW: Trump demanded prosecutions of his enemies in a public message to “Pam.”

His DOJ, which resisted similar entreaties in his first term, obeyed — shattering an already corroded guardrail against political prosecutions.

Journalists are not stenographers.

Use our easy action center tool to tell the Senate to reject a nominee for the Army’s top lawyer, who told Sen. @warren.senate.gov the government can punish reporters who publish news it doesn’t authorize.

The Attorney General of the United States has set a new low for this committee.

And creepy Vought is taking a very strange and unhealthy pleasure in it.

The man who was already detained in the van did not identify himself, Thomas said. Once Brockman was handcuffed and placed in the van, the agents pulled out, clipping the rear bumper off of a stopped car partially blocking their path and speeding away past an approaching elongated CTA bus and through the busy intersection.

Blatant incompetence all around
