The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

DOJ has sued 8 states for refusing to turn over their full, unreacted voter files. My team has now filed motions to defend those states against this attack on federalism in 6 of those states: ME, MI, MN, NH, OR and PA.
I suggest that tomorrow DOJ monitor the docket in the remaining two: CA and NY.

The Trump Administration Wants Your Voter Registration Data. Why?
Read about the fight for democracy from activists, elected officials, legal experts and others.
The DOJ is intensifying its bid to wrangle private voter data from states, even going as far as suing Maine and Oregon for not turning over the information.
But why is the administration so hard pressed on acquiring this data? We break it downπ

This abhorrent comment from Brian Kilmeade really fell by the wayside because it happened just hours before Charlie Kirk was shot and killed.
But it still says something that a top Fox News host can now just call for the extermination of mentally ill homeless people, and it barely makes a ripple.
