US social media companies are interfering in the Brazilian elections in favour of the Far Right’s Flávio Bolsonaro. Meta is the latest. It’s just blocked the campaign account of President Lula in the final stretch of the election.

ANOTHER DHS VOTER FRAUD CLAIM COLLAPSES Trump’s DHS claimed as many as 15,903 noncitizens were on Nevada’s voter rolls. Nevada pushed back and demanded evidence. 15,903 became 185. Nevada checked the 185. The new number: ZERO. Every single one was a US citizen.

NEW: QueerDoc is seeking en banc review by the Ninth Circuit of the 2-1 decision from earlier this month siding with DOJ's invasive administrative subpoenas probing gender-affirming medical care provided to minors. Background: www.lawdork.com/p/ninth-circ...
By “avoid[ing] the clear error standard of review for factual findings,” Op.
86 (Paez, J., dissenting), the panel legally erred and issued a decision
that conflicts with numerous decisions of this Court, the Supreme Court,
and other courts of appeals, see Fed. R. App. P. 40(b)(2)(A)-(C).
In addition, the panel’s decision implicates questions concerning
the separation of powers that are of exceptional importance. See Fed. R.
App. P. 40(b)(2)(D). If allowed to stand, the panel’s decision will
significantly limit judicial review of administrative subpoenas issued to
harass and intimidate those associated with causes disfavored by the
President, rendering meaningless the statutory restraints imposed by
Congress to limit agencies’ investigative power.
This Court should grant rehearing en banc to resolve the conflicts
created by the panel’s decision and to address the important questions
raised by these proceedings.

There are a lot of petty things Trump does. It is his nature. He has never experienced life without cruelty. It is all he knows. And all of us have to suffer because of it. And he enjoys this. He literally delights in hurting people and destroying things. Humans. Laws. Performing Arts Centers.
