Eyeing Voting Rights, Liberals Aim to Secure Wisconsin’s Supreme Court through 2030 - Bolts
After flipping the court in 2023, Wisconsin liberals now hope to expand their majority on a body that could be a critical backstop for voting rights during the next presidential election.
NEW: Believe it or not, it’s that time of year: the Wisconsin Supreme Court election is next month.
Liberals have a huge opportunity: if they win, they can lock down the majority of this court thru 2030.
That means they’d have it in the next presidential race, a big democracy guardrail.

Feeling a righteous rage after ping ponging btwn doctor’s offices for weeks due to bleeding and abdominal pain.
Turns out my IUD partially expelling out of my uterus into my abdomen. Dallas Baylor ER was only place that could help me.
Women’s healthcare in Texas is very broken 😞

I don’t say this as a joke or a drill, but I hope everyone who follows elections has cleared up next Tuesday night because it’s one of the biggest election nights of the year
(More on the what and why tomorrow.)

An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.

Headline card with text at the top that reads: "The number of US-aligned countries in the UN has crashed under Trump". Two separate cluster of circles below show that during Obama and Biden years 46 countries were aligned with the US compared to 7 during Trump years.
Analysis shows that the world is moving closer to China, as Trump’s isolationism rears its head at the United Nations.

The Kids Trump Sent to ICE’s Dilley Detention Center
ProPublica went inside the immigrant detention center for families in Dilley, Texas. Children held there told us about the anguish of being ripped from their lives in the United States and the fear of...
Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica.
They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.

More than 110 @propublicaguild employees have signed a pledge ready to strike, if necessary. We want to focus on doing great journalism and get this bargaining finalized after two long years of negotiations. I am in awe of the people power we showed across the country today with practice pickets.
