Because no voters had yet been harmed, a federal district court allowed the Trump administration to proceed with President Donald Trump’s March 31 executive order federalizing mail-in voting rules. The order is widely seen as unconstitutional.
Washington, D.C. (May 27, 2026)—Today, Rep. Jamie Raskin, Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, released a new fact sheet detailing the top 10 reasons why Trump’s $1.776 billion slush fund and super-pardon for his family and businesses are unconstitutional, illegal, and a fraud on the court.
A U.S. citizen detained for 18 hours. Jailed, shackled and threatened. Even upon release, ICE is still threatening to deport her. A U.S. citizen. This is unacceptable.

“…alas, the NSW Premier Chris Minns has now reached the Joe Hockey level of economic ignorance.” (Source: The Point)
I’ve never been a fan of #ChrisMinns, even back when I was a #Labor party member. I don’t like him at the best of times because he peddles the #NeoLiberal lies about economic prosperity and doesn’t appear to be clever enough to head a govt, even a State one at that. You’ll forgive me if I’m dismissive, but #Minns ‘ past performance, including his latest #Authoritarian attitudes, in what is a fast changing society, is reflected in knee-jerk reactionary policies and rammed-through legislation which proved to be #Unconstitutional. The man is not too bright from a social licence perspective. He is also #Captured by anti-social interests.

Can you be as bad as Joe Hockey, who said poor people don’t drive, and suggested that the solution to the housing crisis was for young people to get a good job that pays money? Well, alas, the NSW Premier Chris Minns has now reached the Joe Hockey level of economic ignorance.
#Victoria's #politicaldonation system remains a free-for-all ahead of #election.
The #JacintaAllan government is working to devise new donation laws after the #HighCourt last month found previous laws #unconstitutional.
Ahead of the #stateelection in #November, there are no #donationlaws in place - no laws banning #foreign donations, no #limit on donations, & no requirements to #disclose them.
#Labor sources say proposed laws will be brought before parliament next month. #auspol #VICpol
