Heads up, Mainers: Filling out the voter registration status-check form on maine dot vote gives your data to a conservative Maine PAC campaigning for Senator Collins and the form on vote safe dot org goes to a database owned by Elon Musk's PAC. Use www.Vote.org instead to be safe.

Adam Kidan went to federal prison with Jack Abramoff and was ordered to repay $21.7 million. Trump pardoned him in July. His money turned up in eight Republican Senate campaigns. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-pard...

In 2020, Ken Paxton stole Texas for Trump by blocking 2.5 million mail-in ballots in Harris County [Houston]. And he can do it again. The attack on mail-in ballots and drop boxes, unseen by the media, will determine the midterms nationwide. gregpalastinvestigates.substack.com/p/how-paxton...

Trump's foreign policy is not isolationist. On the contrary, his ideologues want to build an international empire run by far-right political movements who serve American crypto, mineral and tech companies, many with links to the president. Read more here: www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Trump's attacks on our civil liberties didn't come out of nowhere. The groundwork for his Orwellian surveillance state was laid by the post-9/11 PATRIOT Act. Only one Senator at the time had the foresight to see what it would unleash.

This story is a bit wild. After Elon Musk's DOGE erased decades of USAID data, it was assumed to be lost. But a Canadian college student had previously downloaded much of it in high school for a project. 4,000 PDFs. Thanks again, Canada. Yet again. www.aiddata.org/blog/before-...
