NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

Between seizing ballots in Georgia, trying to leverage Minnesota to turn over its sensitive voter data, and political prosecutions, the DOJ is laying the groundwork to subvert the 2026 elections. I created Democracy Docket for times like this. Help it grow by supporting it now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

It’s not about convicting Don Lemon. That’s very unlikely on these facts and given the legal charges DOJ brought. So what’s it all about? Read about that here: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
Why Indict Don Lemon?
Don Lemon was taken into custody Thursday night by federal agents in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy Awards.

Chancellor Merz is right: Europe can no longer depend on America.
But he's wrong to say that America is pursuing its own interests.
Trump is pursuing his deranged and corrupt interests, not ours.

Great news for Canadians.
We're diversifying our trade partners and building big at home — creating new career opportunities for Canadians, especially young people.

In case you missed this, the BBC edited a historian's speech about Trump to remove the claim that he's "the most openly corrupt president in US history." This came after Trump had threatened a $1 billion lawsuit.

Trump Angrily Threatened to Sue BBC. Then Things Took a Darker Turn.
First, British Broadcasting Corporation execs resigned after Trump complained about a segment. Now the BBC edited out a line from a historian that was critical of Trump. Where does this end?
