Just in: Federal court orders:
DOJ "shall not threaten state or local election officials and workers with criminal prosecution for processing or counting ballots in the 2026 election."
Also prohibits other forms of attempted intimidation, threats, coercion.
A federal judge has barred the Justice Department from threatening or coercing election workers to stop processing California ballots, marking another blow to the Trump administration’s efforts to assert control over local elections. https://t.co/K6Jsgp7Ur3
Donald Trump functions as a Russian asset, and the entire GOP is going along with it. Their legacy is their complicity - vote them out.
@stuartpstevens:
🚨 Jamie Raskin reveals plans to investigate Trump's pardons and the people profiting from access to them.
“We counted more than $1.7 billion” in forgiven restitution and fines, Raskin says.
He specifically names Matt Gaetz and Roger Stone while discussing alleged “pardon brokers.”
“We're going to shine a light on all of that.”
BREAKING: Judge Trina Thompson of the Northern District of California has ordered the Justice Department to stop threatening state and local election officials with criminal prosecution for processing or counting ballots in the 2026 election.
An extraordinary order: DOJ “shall not threaten, intimidate or coerce state or local elections officials or workers to demand that they halt processing the ballots of any registered voter solely on the basis that the ballot” is someone DOJ says may not be a citizen https://t.co/r6kp4Di0Ou
"We decline the United States’s invitation to contravene the Elections Clause by undermining the Constitution’s plain text."
In other words, the Ninth Circuit majority says no thanks to the Trump regime's anti-Constitutional request to sideline 20,000 California ballots based on 11th hour, spurious claims of "likely" noncitizen voting.

Katie Phang on Todd Blanche and the Trump DOJ refusing to turn over foreign language documents in the Epstein files: "The fact that international law enforcement agencies across the world are being stonewalled by the Trump DOJ in terms of cooperation is a big tell — that there is something there that they don't want to turn over."

@elonmusk What’s coming was avoidable, but Republicans in Congress let Trump start a war, increase spending, arm a genocide, betray MAHA, and cover up for Epstein’s coconspirators. I was ousted with over $30 million of foreign lobby money for refusing to go along, and here we are.
Trump loves the military so much that he shut down a VA mortgage rescue program, forcing 10,000 veterans into foreclosure and putting 90,000 more at risk.
