    No ruling until tomorrow at least in California’s effort to get the Trump regime to stop@interfering with its elections. But a good sign: ‘U.S. District Judge David O. Carter of Los Angeles to the Trump DOJ: “This court believes that it would be wise that any threats to state and county election employees cease immediately.”’ https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/just-in-judge-warns-trump-doj-to-stop-threatening-election-workers

    Democratic Party institutions and officials, represented by Marc Elias, tonight filed a really interesting lawsuit in D.C.

    This afternoon I spent time on some post-election litigation preparation. It is becoming ever clearer how vital massive turnout is. The widest possible margins of victory for Democratic candidates, up and down the ballot, in every state remains essential to showing how little factual basis there will be to claims of improper voting or other failures of election administration. 1/

    Trump’s treatment of James Comey is disgraceful. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/oct/26/james-comey-charged-doj. It is designed to intimidate and preemptively deter anybody who ever tries to hold Trump accountable in law or politics, part and parcel of his revolting attacks on Ilhan Omar, Letitia James, etc etc.
