Remember when a president inspired his followers to ransack the US Capitol to overturn an election and no one in his party would defend it or be seen near him for a while and then the people who did it were convicted of felonies? And then we decided as a nation to reelect that guy?

Raskin: What makes somebody a good lawyer?
You have to identify with the people who are the victims of injustice β not with their perpetrators.
So I would say to Pam Bondi: If youβre going to stand with the victimizers and not the victims, then youβre not a real lawyer.

Elon Musk declares victory with Medicaid data release
The Trump administration has used fraud in safety net programs as justification for deep spending cuts.
Musk dumped millions of Medicaid claims online and told Twitter to "find the fraud." This isn't transparency. It's a targeting system. Every doctor who treats the poorest Americans just had their billing patterns handed to MAGA vigilantes.They cut $1 trillion from Medicaid, then blamed the providers

This is not ACTUALLY true on paper.
HSI has charged voter fraud, & CISA (part of DHS) does have a role in election security -- remember Trump fired Chris Krebs for declaring the 2020 election sound.
