Please share!!! This is getting ridiculous—they just can’t accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last year’s closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.

New: New wave of terminations today at FDA. People arrived this morning and found out while waiting in line to go through security that they no longer worked there. A common pattern with DOGE: planning to maximize humiliation/disrespect.

Brad Schimel is doing a livestream with Elon Musk at 4pm ET/3pm CT. Musk, remember, has poured at least $13 million to boost Schimel's campaign for Wisconsin Supreme Court—and has his own business lawsuit in Wisconsin that the Court might decide. The world's richest man wants to buy the courts.

Trump’s commerce secretary Howard Lutnick says if Social Security skipped a check, his mother-in-law wouldn’t complain—and if you would, it indicates you are probably a fraudster. Insane.

Did you know that before the Dept of Ed was created, only 1 of every 5 kids with disabilities received a public education. So when people ask why do we need a Dept of Ed, you can tell them it ensures ALL children have access to education. Learn more on this week's podcast: pod.redwine.blue/OBW

This morning the White House is attacking Judge Boasberg as a "Democrat activist," which is odd, since he's a registered Republican. Leavitt: This judge is a Democrat activist. He was appointed by Barack Obama Reporter: He was originally appointed by George W. Bush and elevated by Obama.
