An abortion ban survived at the North Dakota supreme court last year: 3 of 5 justices voted to strike it down, but it would have taken 4. One of the two justices who voted to uphold the ban (Jerod Tufte) is up for reelection this year; no one has filed to challenge him yet, with 9 days to go.

Google gave Trump $22 million to spend on demolishing the White House East Wing & replacing it with a vanity project, a ballroom. Let Google know whether you approve of its financing the demolition of the White House East Wing.

YouTube, a Google subsidiary, last month gave $22 million to the nonprofit for the ballroom as part of a settlement for a 2021 civil lawsuit that Trump brought against the company.
