Pritzker: I’m not going to spend much time at all talking about Trump because it can ruin a perfectly good meal for all of us. But I do need to get something off of my chest… There are too many women in this country who are living under the yoke of tyranny…

In late September, top Republicans received a trove of internal polling that sparked a new level of panic. It didn't just reveal a harsh environment for the party in power on par with typical midterms, but rather some close-to-catastrophic scenarios in a slew of formerly safe red seats nationwide.

House Republicans are bracing for catastrophe in once safe red seats
GOP internal polling revealed key House seats that Trump won comfortably in 2024 are now competitive.

Arlington County's local elected body has just sued to block construction of Trump's planned triumphal arch — arguing that administration officials bypassed a key review process in their push to begin work on the structure.

NEW: A judge slammed the Trump administration for corrupting what has long been the DOJ's "crown jewel" — its Civil Rights Division. The ruling, which blocked the department's sweeping hunt for state voter data, rebuked its invocation of laws meant to safeguard minority voting rights.

Documents released by a watchdog group suggest that despite Trump's promise to fund Freedom 250 events through private donations, taxpayers largely footed the bill. The budget estimates leave open questions about where tens of millions in private donations ended up.

22 California billionaires have spent a combined $150 million so far to defeat Prop 40. By spending their fortunes trying to stop California from taxing billionaires, they're making the argument for a billionaire wealth tax more clearly and articulately than anyone else possibly could.
