Trump’s mail voting restrictions would have disenfranchised thousands if the Supreme Court had allowed them. But Trump’s plan to restrict mail voting was supposed to be even more prohibitive, with the help of two election conspiracists inside the White House. More from this shocking report:

Report: Trump wanted all mail ballots sent by certified mail
Two White House officials, including Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, tried to help Trump make his USPS rule even more restrictive by requiring all voters sign their delivered ballots at home.

Iran’s proposal would have reopened Strait of Hormuz and restarted nuclear talks in exchange for lifting blockade of Iranian ports and easing economic pressure.

When Elon Musk's groups spent $20M+ on Wisconsin's 2025 Supreme Court race, his involvement backfired and his candidate lost by 10 points. Now his super PAC has quietly spent $14M+ on key midterm races, including the Texas Senate race. Would be a shame if people found out.
