The media's dilemma: should we cover that a guy contemplating how to dispose of Jews is cited by the VP as an intellectual influence or write another piece about vague connections between Democrats and Hassan Piker? 🤔

$13 million and counting. That’s how much one Wisconsin billionaire has given to Lisa Demuth’s Super PAC to try to buy her the governor’s office. From opposing prescription drug reforms to banning abortion, his agenda is a perfect match for Lisa Demuth – but not for Minnesota.

Despite 1st Circuit's 9/18 ruling invalidating DHS's 3d-country removal policy, DHS claims the decision hasn't yet taken effect. Class counsel fears a flight will take class members to Burundi, Rwanda, & Central African Republic *tomorrow.* Asks 1st Cir for emergency action.
Plaintiffs-Appellants seek an emergency order clarifying that this
Court's September 18, 2026 decision is in effect as binding precedent and that this Court's March 16, 2026, stay "pending appeal" has been dissolved
now that the Court has issued its decision and judgment. In the alternative,
Plaintiffs-Appellants request the Court either issue an order lifting the
March 16, 2026 stay or issue the mandate. Emergency action is needed because Plaintiffs-Appellants have learned that Defendants-Appellees are proceeding with removing class members to third countries in Africa,
pursuant to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) guidance which
this Court found unlawful and set aside, tomorrow. In response to an email
from class counsel, Defendants-Appellees' counsel confirmed in a 5:14 p.m.
email today that their position is that this Court's stay remains in effect until
the mandate is issued. Exhibit A. In addition, counsel for Defendants-

Lisa Demuth stood with Trump on gutting Medicaid. She stood with Big Pharma to keep prescription drug costs high. She still doesn’t have a plan on how she would actually lower health care costs. Her record shows she’ll do anything but that.
