Last night's primaries across six states — California, Iowa, Montana, New Jersey, South Dakota, and New Mexico — delivered results that should have Republicans worried. In Georgia, a Fox News pollster went on air and admitted he was "concerned" after Democrats turned out 150,000 more early voters than Republicans in the state.

Deb Haaland won the Democratic nomination for New Mexico governor, putting her one step from becoming the first Native American woman elected to lead a state. In New Jersey's battleground 7th District, former Navy helicopter pilot Rebecca Bennett beat the field to take on vulnerable Republican Tom Kean Jr. In Iowa — Iowa — Democrats think they have a credible path to flip a Senate seat, and Trump suffered a rare primary loss when his endorsed gubernatorial candidate went down.

A new poll finds only a small slice of Americans say they feel financially secure under Trump. The Democratic base is not depressed. It is activated.

The Supreme Court cleared Alabama to use a congressional map that a lower court had ruled intentionally discriminates against Black voters — and the timing, landing the night of Super Tuesday primaries, was not accidental. The ruling hands Republicans a House seat heading into the midterms and continues the Roberts Court's decade-long project of dismantling the Voting Rights Act one map at a time. In Tennessee, Republicans had already erased Memphis's lone majority-Black congressional district after the Court gutted Section 5. Voters in both states told the Guardian they feel the target on their backs.

"They want the country to be what it was in 1776," one Memphis resident said.

The Court didn't argue with that.

Trump replaced Tulsi Gabbard — who had zero qualifications — with someone who has even fewer. Bill Pulte — a 38-year-old heir to a home-building fortune — is known for being aggressively loyal to Trump online. He has zero intelligence background. His nickname inside MAGA world is "Little Trump." Republican senators — not Democrats, Republicans — are describing the pick as shocking.

Pulte has previously weaponized government resources against Trump critics, which is presumably the relevant qualification here. He now oversees the nation's most sensitive classified military operations. A convicted January 6 rioter was simultaneously appointed to a sensitive Pentagon counterterrorism role. This is not normal. This is the systematic installation of loyalists into every node of national security.

The $1.8 billion fund Trump's DOJ had engineered to pay off January 6 rioters and immunize his allies from future prosecution is officially "dead" — according to acting AG Todd Blanche, who told Congress so yesterday while simultaneously withholding 3 million more Epstein files. Republican senators aren't buying the "dead" framing and want explicit answers about where the money went. The fund may be paused, but Trump is refusing to give up the tax amnesty piece, and legal experts are still calling the whole scheme outright theft. The slush fund is dead the way a zombie is dead.

Bari Weiss has now destroyed one of the most decorated broadcast journalism institutions in American history in under a year. CBS fired Scott Pelley after he publicly said Weiss was "murdering '60 Minutes'" — and then proved his point by firing him for saying it. Weiss, installed by Shari Redstone, has been systematically purging the program's editorial independence as part of what appears to be a broader corporate surrender to Trump pressure. The White House Correspondents' Association says Trump will attend their rescheduled dinner and that a free press "will not be intimidated into silence." What's left of that free press might want to believe them.
