Maine rejected a ballot measure that’d have restricted mail voting and imposed voter ID.
By a large margin, 64/36.
The no got 90% in the city of Portland. (!) boltsmag.org/five-ways-20...
90% tax bracket for trillionaires anyone?

A federal judge finds the Trump admin "did not comply" with his order to fund SNAP benefits.
Judge John McConnell has verbally ordered the admin to *fully fund* SNAP benefits for the month of November — by tomorrow.
It is clearly deeply annoying for a sociopath when a human collapses nearby and distracts attention from him.

so far, grand and petit juries are the institutions with the best track record in standing up to authoritarianism

A major reason behind the Blue Wave on Tuesday: that the two faces Americans see and connect with the MAGA movement each day are a doddering octogenarian who often can't remember where he is, and a Southern Baptist deacon who lies for a living, very unconvincingly.

Like you I am celebrating Tuesday's victories. However, my job is not to sugarcoat things and tell you it's all fixed. It is to warning about what to expect next and fight back.
That is why I wrote this and why I hope you read and share. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/what...
