The Constitution doesn’t say “We the People… unless the President or the Court says otherwise.”
Yet that’s exactly what’s happening.

My law firm has already filed to intervene to defend voters in 13 of the first 14 cases. We are working on the remains 5.
This is an insane effort by DOJ and we are a small firm. But we are committed to protecting free and fair elections in 2026.

DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data.
My firm has moved to intervene in 10 of those cases. We are working on the last 4.

If you’re looking for something to do, start working on overturning citizens united in your state. States control the power corporations have. Take their political power away with a ballot initiative. Here’s how: open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
How to Get Rid of "Citizens United"
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

Real answer: Trump receives Lecanemab (Leqembi) or Donanemab (Kisunla) via IV infusion in an effort to slow his cognitive loss due to his dementia.
Q: Can you explain what's going on with the bandages on Trump's hand?
LEAVITT: We've given you an explanation. The president is literally constantly shaking hands.

Unfortunately, the leverage Democrats had to extract real policy changes was squandered under Schumer’s failed leadership. Instead of holding the line to force negotiations on a real solution, he allowed a surrender that Republicans seized as fuel for the fire for their extremist healthcare agenda.
