Since taking office, Ken Paxton has skipped at least 730 workdays as Attorney General. He has instead traveled to Europe and the Caribbean.

If you vote by mail, fill your ballot out and take a picture of it next to a handwritten note with your username on it. Don't post it to your socials until they start saying the election was stolen or a fraud or ballots were misplaced/seized/destroyed.

The Ken Paxton Corruption Hotline is now receiving thousands of voicemails. Listen to what they’re saying: “Ken Paxton is corrupt.” “I’m voting for James Talarico!” Texans are tired of corruption — and ready for something new.

Justice Alito is confusing court reform with attacking the court. Many of us simply want the Court to be better. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Supreme Court expansion is ‘a concerted effort to intimidate the court,' Justice Alito says
Despite Americans' eroding trust in the Supreme Court, Alito says he's not discussed growing calls for expanding the court and setting term limits.

Marimar Martinez was shot five times by a Border Patrol agent and branded a “domestic terrorist” by DHS — all for just warning her neighbors and speaking her truth during Operation Midway Blitz. She deserves true justice and accountability from the federal government.

This is now a standard part of Trump's campaign stump, a direct threat to voters: if you elect Democrats, I won't send you FEMA money, and I may take away your Medicare and Medicaid, too. These transcripts will be useful for litigation to follow.

Blumenthal: Tether is a crypto company that has a stablecoin known as USDT, and it is the major means of Iran avoiding and evading sanctions. What we’ve also exposed is that Cantor Fitzgerald has a major financial tie. Cantor Fitzgerald was owned by Howard Lutnick. It’s still run by his family.

Federal immigration goons use their vehicles to confront a crowd of demonstrators protesting ICE in Tacoma, in what eyewitnesses say was an attempt by the suspected Feds to intimidate them. You can see the crowd stand their ground, and the goons drive off.

Community members gathered at the Federal Immigration Court location to raise awareness and support of those that have been wrongfully detained by ICE.  The community also raised voices in opposition to unwarranted military actions as well as other unjust and violent acts by ICE and other federal government agencies.  This event was organized by Indivisible Resisters Contra Costa, a grassroots, nonpartisan group advocating for policies to support immigration reform, campaign finance reform, universal healthcare, racial justice, and to protect our environment.

Police identified the motorcyclist accused of attacking Tenaya Stanford, but his name still has NOT been released. Stanford says he followed her for miles while her 1-year-old was in the car, smashed her window, grabbed her by the hair, dragged her into the street and beat her with a steering lock.
