With the passage of the Virginia map, Democrats had mostly succeeded in reaching a draw with Republicans in the redistricting wars.
But with the map overturned and Southern states rushing to pass new maps before the midterms, Dems could face a four to five-seat disadvantage heading into November.

Republicans don’t need to win elections anymore. They just need their judges.
The Virginia Supreme Court nullifies three million votes, boosting Trump’s effort to rig the midterms.

Scary, but Trump doesn't know what the purposes of NATO are, why NATO was established, or what role the US has!

It seems like a Prime Minister who continues to get his corruption trial delayed for years because his government is engaged in wars has a personal incentive to keep wars going as long as possible.

The most disturbing part is knowing ICE left a little girl alone and didn’t care.
Annabella was six years old when her dad was detained by ICE while he was picking up their food order. She stayed inside, waiting.
He never returned to her that day.
