Election officials in Alaska are asking a federal judge to "immediately" dismiss the Trump DOJ's lawsuit seeking to block the Senate results, claiming it has "no legal basis." "[T]he United States lacks authority to intervene in state elections at all, much less in support of a favored candidate."

Former Miss Switzerland Accuses Trump of Rape. Now you get why Trump has to support the vile Vivek ad calling Amy Acton a liar about being raped as a child. Trump is always protecting himself so he smears all rape victims as liars. www.mediaite.com/media/news/f...

Corporate profits are at record highs โ€” but revenue from corporate taxes has plummeted thanks to the tax cuts in Trump and Republicansโ€™ big, ugly bill. Meanwhile, workersโ€™ wages are stagnant and their share of the nationโ€™s income is at a record low. Trickle-down economics was always a hoax.

The good news is that we are winning in court. The bad news is that we have to win every case. Trump only needs to subvert one election to break democracy.

A reporter must ask RFK jr, in his infinite wisdom, to recite, for the American people, a summary of the scientific method. This abject racist can't do it.
