VIDEO OF THE DAY: Federal court takes aggressive action in Trump trial
A federal appeals court has agreed to fast-track the question of Trump's presidential immunity claims, which means we could still have his trial early next year — BEFORE the nation goes to the polls in what will be the most important election in American history.

Biden issues pardons for certain marijuana offenses
President Biden built on the action he took last year to pardon thousands of nonviolent drug offenders, expanding the pardons to those convicted for "use and possession on certain federal lands." Biden also commuted the prison sentences of 11 people convicted of nonviolent drug offenses, including some who have received mandatory life sentences. This is a wonderful start — now it's time to legalize marijuana at the national level and put this absurd, arbitrary prohibition to rest.

Wisconsin Supreme Court orders new state legislative maps
The state Supreme Court, newly empowered with a liberal majority thanks to the election of new Judge Janet Protasiewicz, has ordered the state to throw out the Wisconsin GOP's outrageous gerrymanders that are so extreme that Democrats literally couldn't win control of the House even though they won more votes. “For too long, rightwing interests have rigged the rules without any consequences. Gerrymandered maps have distorted the political landscape, stifling the voice of the voters. It challenges the very essence of fair representation and erodes confidence in our political system," wrote attorney Dan Lenz for Law Forward, the group which brought the lawsuit that prompted the decision. It cannot be understated how HUGE this is for dismantling the one-party rule that the GOP tried to install in the key battleground state.

After authorizing their inquiry, Republicans could slow-walk a Biden impeachment vote
Stop us if you've heard this before, but House Republicans can't agree — lol — on how to proceed with their frivolous, performative, and completely bullshit effort to impeach President Biden. Some think they should drag it out, some favor the "f*ck, we'll do it live" approach and who needs that stupid "evidence" stuff, and others think it might never happen at all because they don't have any evidence OR the votes to succeed! So basically, just like every other thing the least productive and most dysfunctional congressional majority in American history has tried to do.
