Carabao Cup humiliation is the latest setback for a coach who may actually be the last real thing at Manchester UnitedFurther and deeper into the jungle.

7 d. ago Republicans are trying to ensure we’ll never have another fair election | Judith Levine

From an executive order and redistricting to seeking to kill mail-in ballots, the party is conducting an all-out assault on voting rights“Christians, get out and vote, just this time,” Donald Trump exhorted the audience at a campaign event organized by the conservative Turning Point Action in July 2024. “In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good you’re not going to have to vote.”Since his defeat by Joe Biden in 2020, Trump has been building toward delivery on that promise, first by fomenting suspicion of widespread election fraud, then by trying to overturn the results via legal challenge and intimidation, and finally, on 6 January 2021, by force.
