The Fulton County raid is part of Trump's total war on voting

New in PN: The Fulton County raid is part of Trump's total war on voting "The SAVE Act is not expected to pass the Senate, but in some ways, it doesn’t really need to. It's already served the same purpose as the raid: undermining confidence in elections by amplifying debunked lies about fraud."

And it's disturbing that a magistrate judge signed off on it.

Reporter: Trump argued that other countries are going to pay the brunt of the tariffs, but recent research finds the exact opposite. The cost of Trump's tariffs per household was $1,000 last year, and they're seeing an increase this year to $1,300.

Funding for the DHS is set to lapse early Saturday morning, the result of a bitter impasse over the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. Here’s what to know about how a shutdown could affect some of the department’s most visible activities.

The DHS Shutdown Could Affect ICE, Travelers, FEMA and More

A lapse in funding probably won’t bring immigration enforcement operations to a screeching halt, but the department is also home to other agencies, including the Coast Guard and FEMA.
