The Senate just passed a spending bill to reopen the government—but tucked inside: a loophole letting GOP senators sue over the Jan. 6 phone-record probe. Eight Democrats signed on. $500,000 per violation. Washington’s circus, with legal fireworks.

NEW: Nearly 104,000 mail-in ballots were rejected in 2024 because they arrived too late. A new USPS policy initiated under Trump’s first Postmaster General could lead to millions more being rejected in 2026 — and it’s Trump’s rural voters who’ll be impacted most.
