Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.

COONS: Joe, it's same rules NYPD follows. Do you see roving bands of NYPD w/ masks using bear spray on people?

Discworld QOTD, from The Light Fantastic

“Not for the first time she reflected that there were many drawbacks to being a swordswoman, not least of which was that men didn't take you seriously until you'd actually killed them, by which time it didn't really matter anyway.”

They're literally running out of lawyers in a state where the district judges are practically at war with the administration.

Not saying we should’ve won, but egregious officiating. I have never before seen officials reverse a foul to reassign a foul after the fact to the other team—and these guys did it twice. And so much more. Not sure who these guys were, hope to never see them again.

I’m sorry to say it, but it’s looking like a game to be decided by the refs.

Spartans got too close. Refs have to start making their presence known.

Third? Second? Maybe reassign during the timeout.

You can’t know because the announcers suck.
