Oh my god... Annie Andrews just NUKED Darline Graham with "DATA CENTER DARLINE" on live TV. 💥 Graham's response? Clutching her pearls over "name calling"... Yeah, the same woman who time and time again refused to condemn Trump for nicknaming Annie.

Can someone ask CBS News why Ted Koppel said that "Bannon's technically correct; they didn't have standing" in the 60+ cases Trump and his allies lost in 2020. This is verifiably false and is a GOP talking point. Many/most of the cases Trump lost were on the merits. Do they not fact check at CBS?

A GOP-led purge of Democratic voters is underway in New Jersey — and voters are fighting back in court. In one stark example, a Democratic voter received a “Gilmore Letter” questioning their eligibility to vote. Their Republican spouse did not: demdock.com/4yCxbOh

Hold on. You can't make this up. Darline Graham warns that Annie Andrews, who NEVER elected to anything, will drive up the debt... while PRAISING Trump, who added $12 TRILLION to it, the most in American history, for "fraud, waste, and abuse." Annie's response was priceless.

challenged advertisements; and it is further
ORDERED that Defendants will file a status report within 24 hours of the entry of this temporary restraining order and Section 705 stay, confirming compliance with this Order; and it

ORDERED that, in the Court's discretion, Plaintiffs shall not be required to post a bond.Case 1:26-cv-08882-JLR Document 41 Filed 10/11/26 Page 4 of 4

Regardless of the legality of posting armed national guard members at drop boxes, whether the boxes were open yet, or whether drop boxes qualify as polling sites under the law; the optics are what matter. Lawful or not, it’s overt, intentional voter suppression.

BREAKING: In a win for Georgia voters, a state court dismissed a Republican lawsuit seeking to limit where mail-in ballots can be returned in Gwinnett County. The ruling preserves an additional way for voters in Georgia's second-most populous county to return their ballots before the midterms.
In the document, the heading reads "In the Superior Court of Gwinnett County State of Georgia." It involves the Republican National Committee, Gwinnett County Republican Party, and Tim Fleming as plaintiffs, and David Hancock and others as defendants, along with DSCC and Jon Ossoff for Senate as intervenors. The text is an order denying a motion for an interlocutory injunction and granting motions to dismiss. The document outlines the case concerning absentee ballot applications. The filing includes official stamps and electronic file marks.
