UPDATE: The Trump administration let a federal judge’s 5 p.m. deadline pass without handing over its list of 20,000 California voters it calls “likely noncitizens.” It says it intends to appeal, calling the voters’ request a “fishing expedition.”

So we’re supposed to believe there’s no money for health care, but there’s enough money for ICE to spend nearly $500 million buying an abandoned private prison in MN that was originally offered for sale at $75 million just last year? If that sounds like taxpayers are getting ripped off, it’s because you are.

Police shoot Black man having a seizure with taser—7 times. He was putting up Halloween decorations outside his own home. EMS was treating him after he collapsed in his yard. "All of a sudden a cop shows up, shoves everyone out the way, and jumps on top of him," brother said. The officer has only been identified as Sgt. Price with the Chattahoochee Police Department. He claims he was just trying to assist EMS with a "combative individual" and encountered "physical resistance." Dwight Jackson is the man attacked by the cop. He says was not intentionally combative—was defenseless and only experiencing a medical emergency. Dwight Jackson described the experience as being "more terrifying than being in the war." Incident occurred outside his house on Chattahoochee Street in Chattahoochee, Florida.

I looked into this and apparently the judge who let him go free has a history of giving sex offenders lenient sentences. There was even a 2025 petition made to have him removed from his position after he allowed a man who admitted to sexually abusing a 6 year old to not have to register as a sex offender and suspended his sentence to just probation. Prior to that he allowed another man who plead guilty to raping a teen to also not have to register as a sex offender AND suspended his sentence to just probation as well. There are apparently SIX different cases where he has done this not including this case. His name is Judge Michael Whyte and these are the case numbers where he has allowed men who have raped and abused children to go free. CR10-23-03237 CR10-21-09722 CR10-21-06045 CR10-23-03237 CR10-23-03819 CR10-24-08091 And here is the phone number to the courthouse where he works so you can leave a nice message letting them know how you feel about them employing this man :) 208-742-1673 citizens in Idaho need to be made aware of this!

Readers added context they thought people might want to know

Krew Zaugg was not allowed to walk free. The judge sentenced him to Idaho’s retained jurisdiction ("rider") program, requiring up to one year of treatment in custody. Afterward, the judge will decide whether to send him to prison for 4 to 14 years. eastidahonews.com/2026/10/idaho-…

At Trump’s South Carolina rally, GOP Rep. Russell Fry just told supporters to tell Democrats that Election Day is November 4. Election Day is November 3. Giving voters the wrong date isn’t a joke. It’s an attempt to keep them from voting.

🚨 TODAY: Settler-terrorists attacked Andrey, Jasper and me. This video shows the assault. Andrey was severely beaten and lost consciousness several times in front of police. Despite this, he was denied hospital treatment. He was put in an ambulance—but instead of being taken to hospital, he was taken to a police station. He is still there, arrested and being denied medical care. Jasper and I were also beaten. Jasper was then pepper-sprayed and arrested.

Judge David Carter: "Never before in American history has the federal government, on the eve of an election, sought to coerce a state and local government to abandon their own Constitutional elections procedures and bend to the will of the Executive Branch. In bringing this lawsuit, the Executive would have this Court believe that it reigns as a sole sovereign. But California and its people are sovereign, too."
