Justice Department demands Michigan county turn over 2024 ballots Michigan Democratic Attorney General Dana Nessel dismissed the latest election inquiry from the Trump administration as “absurd” and “baseless.”

Now DOJ is demanding 2024 ballots from Michigan without a proper legal basis. Is it just a coincidence that it’s targeting swing states like Michigan, Georgia, and Arizona in the lead-up to the 2026 election?

FACE Off

In new episode of #SistersInLaw, we share our disgust over DOJ’s false portrayal of prosecutions of attacks on abortion clinics. These cases were about crimes, not peaceful protest or religious beliefs. You can listen here.

Banned AI-generated Iran propaganda videos using Legos have gone viral A series of animated videos slamming President Donald Trump and his policies — using a beloved childhood toy — was banned on YouTube but is exploding everywhere else.

Trump’s State Department closed its Global Engagement Center, which flagged foreign propaganda and provided advance U.S. messaging across the world. And now, we are scrambling to catch up.

The DOJ Is Normalizing Vigilantism Officials at the DOJ delivered a politically convenient one-two punch to the work of their predecessors this week.

By falsely portray prosecutions of FACE Act and seditious conspiracy as “weaponization” of law enforcement, DOJ is normalizing vigilante violence. My thoughts in @opinion.bloomberg.com

Hear hear!

Hegseth's Pentagon prayer sounds like 'Pulp Fiction' line; here's why During a prayer at the Pentagon on Wednesday, Pete Hegseth appeared to paraphrase "Pulp Fiction" rather than the real Ezekiel 27:17 Bible verse.

Really getting tired of these faux Christians defaming my religion. Not only is Hegseth misquoting Bible passages to justify military aggression, he apparently has not read the New Testament at all.

Thanks, Asha!

Excellent dissection in @justsecurity.org of DOJ’s “weaponization” report that led to the unjustified firing of two outstanding career federal prosecutors in Detroit‬⁩.

A transparency black mark: What do redactions convey about politics? As revelations about the Epstein files continue, what can we learn from what the government does and doesn’t disclose?

I joined Wheelhouse today on WNPR in Connecticut to discuss the challenges to transparency in government. You can listen to the conversation here.

Trump’s DOJ is shamelessly rewriting history. Dismissing these charges as an insult to the rule of law and the Capitol Police officers who enforced it.

Purge of experienced federal agents and prosecutors on pretextual grounds is not just lawless, it’s dangerous. My thoughts in ⁦‪@USATODAY.com.

DOJ fires prosecutors in Detroit tied to abortion clinic case The firings came ahead of a critical report outlining the alleged weaponization of a federal law involving access to abortion clinics.

I don’t know all the facts of this case, but I do know Frances Carlson, with whom I worked for almost 20 years. In my experience, if you have a problem with Frances Carlson, the problem is you.

Hungary’s Orbán Ousted in Landslide Election Defeat The result is a stunning turn for a politician who has ruled as prime minister for 16 years and been an ally of President Trump.

Defeat of Orbán is a victory for democracy everywhere!
