We have the best Atty General here in NC with Jeff Jackson.

He writes the most personal newsletters that I receive. In fact, just won another huge court battle.

Thank you for this Bluesmurf! And the following, which I excerpted from a Marc Elias post, is why I appreciate it. Maybe you and the readers have already seen this, but it's worth repeating. Trump is a president who knows he is losing. He lost his footing on the Epstein Files last summer and has never regained it. But that doesn’t mean Trump will disappear quietly. As we approach the 2026 elections, Trump is prepared to go to unprecedented, unconstitutional lengths to protect his congressional majority. One of these tactics is activating state officials who are willing to do his bidding. Abiding by Trump’s orders, they will enact new voter suppression laws and draw new gerrymandered maps. Trump also controls a Department of Justice that is willing to intimidate political opponents and aggressively litigate against voting rights. The DOJ’s Voting Section has filed 22 cases this year which seek sensitive voter data from states attempting to protect their citizens. The more desperate Trump becomes, the more dangerous he will be. The more likely Republicans are to lose control of Congress in 2026, the more reckless and determined Trump will be to undermine the outcome. Yet, with all of that, we still have the power of the vote. Make sure you’re registered to vote, and let’s get out there, vote in every local, municipal, county, state and federal election in which we’re eligible and encourage others to make the required effort as well!
