Democrat Candidate Calls For Banning MAGA From Internet As ‘Punishment’ For Trump Votes
The Daily Caller | April 7, 2026 | Harold Hutchison

A Democratic candidate for a seat in the Georgia House of Representatives said supporters of President Donald Trump should not be allowed to post anything online for four years.

Suzanna Karatassos is running for a Georgia House seat currently held by Republican state Rep. Houston Gaines . . . . Karatassos, who calls herself a “progressive fighter” on her Instagram page, said in a since-deleted video that when Democrats begin “rebuilding” America, Trump supporters should face “punishment” for their votes.

“When this is all over and Trump’s gone and Democrats are back in charge and we’re rebuilding everything, the punishment for MAGA for voting for Trump three times needs to be they remove their internet access for four years,” Karatassos said. “That they cannot post videos or comments on social media for four straight years, so that none of us are subjected to their lies and misinformation while we are rebuilding the chaos that they caused the whole world and America gets to be without their BS online for 4 straight years.”

“Can we all agree to this?” she concluded in the video, which was shared on social media by other users after the candidate deleted the original.

Liberal Group Warns That Trump Could Have Two More Supreme Court Picks
The New York Times | April 3, 2026 | Reid Epstein

For now, none of the nine Supreme Court justices have announced plans to retire . . .

That isn’t stopping Demand Justice from preparing a multimillion-dollar effort to oppose potential Trump Supreme Court appointees before they happen — with a warning that Mr. Trump could be replacing two justices this year.

…

Josh Orton, the president of Demand Justice, said the project would cost $3 million to start and $15 million more if vacancies occurred and Mr. Trump nominated a successor to the court.

Either the $18 million would be ineffective, or it would be used to bribe senators effectively.

San Francisco restores 8th-grade algebra after equity experiment backfires
Fox News | 3/25/26 | CJ Womack

The original policy, implemented roughly 12 years ago, was designed to give students more time to master foundational math before advancing. However, the results fell short of expectations, the Times reported.

“For years, San Francisco tried to achieve equity not by raising the floor, but by lowering the ceiling,” Stanford economist Thomas S. Dee told the Times. “It’s a problem we see nationally.”
