    I honestly can't tell if Pompeo is making a joke, or if he seriously thinks we're going to believe that a highly-regarded national security reporter with a master's degree European studies actually thought Ukraine was next to the Indian peninsula
    Official response from Pompeo about his NPR interview. Haven’t seen anything like this before with a State Department seal on it:

    Alito signed onto a concurrence saying it was fine if Alabamans had to wait until after the 2022 elex to have a VRA-compliant map. In tonight's dissent, he says it would be against the public interest for an election to be held with a NC map that might ultimately be struck down.

    This analogy makes no sense. The WI deadline is receipt deadline, not a submission deadline. The in-person voting equivalent is if someone showed up at their polling place before it officially closed but — due to long lines — didn’t get to cast their ballot until after midnight.
