The through-line for this billionaire-captured Supreme Court is that its election-related decisions always help Republicans, with the “reasoning” backfilled in to get there.

In win for GOP, Supreme Court greenlights lower ad rates for political parties
The ruling has major implications for this year’s midterms, where Republicans hold significant cash advantages at the party level.

NEW: More than 51 million mail ballots will be sent to voters in the coming weeks just from the District of Columbia and the two dozen states that are challenging the Trump administration’s 11th-hour attack on mail voting. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

States challenging Trump's mail voting rule must mail more than 51 million ballots by late October
In her order, Talwani concluded it was “practically inevitable” that, if left to stand, the rule would prevent voters from casting ballots this year.

Adidas selects an IDF soldier who was part of an operation that killed 232 Palestinian civilians to be its spokesperson for its new campaign on amputees — meanwhile Gaza has the highest rate of amputees of any place in modern history due to IDF soldiers and genocide. Barbaric. Stop buying Adidas.

Yep. Keep hammering the contradiction between JD Vance's pretend outrage over El-Sayed's invocations of Usha on one side, and Trump tweeting pictures of El-Sayed's wife in a hijab on the other. Make the press ask JD Vance to explain the contradiction (incredibly he still hasn't been pushed on this).
