10:00 AM ET: We’re minutes away from oral arguments kicking off. Democracy Docket’s Managing Editor Zachary Roth says, “Callais presents a huge threat to minority voting power, and that matters regardless of partisanship. But it also presents a huge threat...to any notion of fair elections.”

This line didn’t make sense the first time he said it, and it doesn’t make sense now.

The fact that they continue to demonize millions of patriotic Americans engaging in peaceful protest tells you everything you need to know about them.

One day Republicans have No Kings as Antifa terrorists, the next day it is blue haired animals. I guess demonizing, dehumanizing, and vilifying ordinary Americans peaceful protesting is the brand now. bsky.app/profile/atru...

When the next generation of your party is more repugnant than the current generation, it’s proof positive your ideologies are deeply toxic and un-American.

New in PN: The 1,287,923 defects in the Comey case ... so far

"Dismissal is probably the best result for the government, since it would spare the DOJ having its dirty laundry aired in court before getting spanked for having brought such a garbage case. But even so, it'd be very, very funny."

They’re freaking out!!!

Trump’s cabinet secretaries falsely claim Dems are keeping the government closed because of the “No Kings” mass protests, and Mike Johnson calls it the “hate America rally.”

The truth is: we love America, but we hate tyrants. That’s why we’re doing this.

See you Saturday.

So what do you say, J.D. Vance? You once feared Trump could be the American Adolf Hitler. But that seems to be the hope of the new generation of Republicans you’ve raised. Will you denounce this outbreak of antisemitism, racism and fascism in your party?

Hey. Hi. Tom Homan is on camera taking a $50k bribe and no one knows where the money went. If this was any other administration, this would be non-stop on the news. Why are we normalizing this stuff?
