Why is the @alaskabeacon.com sponsoring a debate hosted by the Landmine? Do you not have enough expertise or resource to host, that you're forced to partner with an organization that adheres to no journalistic standards? Sad.

As we enter the final month before the midterms, don't get cocky. If anything, it's time to ramp up the work and pour it on. Check your registration. Vote early. Push your friends and family too. Look for local places to help out. Phone bank and write postcards. Volunteer for Election Day.

Please, for the love of God, can the media stop calling random cranks who write fan fiction about their personal heroes in the past "historians."
Geoff Shepard, a former Nixon aide turned Watergate historian and revisionist, recently gave a two-hour presentation at Justice Department headquarters that laid out his theory that the deep state took Nixon down. The title of his 78-page slide deck: “Watergate As Lawfare.”

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power. The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever. But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

What SCOTUS did today is refuse to lift a preliminary injunction issued by Judge Talwani against the Trump order/USPS rule, that's all. A long process lies ahead for the litigation against the rule, that will most likely end back in front of SCOTUS ahead 2028.

Important: the USPS rule that SCOTUS blocked tonight was Trump’s big plan to control and restrict mail voting. But a separate policy remains in place: USPS is no longer postmarking mail as soon it gets it, which is hugely important for deadlines. So people must mail back with plenty of time.

He had no such issues with Ms. Bartiromo, whose approach — at times permitting guest commentators to free-associate on live television — had not appeared to change much in the years since the Dominion settlement.
