It’s up to our military to stop acting on illegal orders. It’s impossible to commit a brave act without feeling vulnerable. So we must support those who refuse to act on behalf of the creditably accused child rapist and convicted felon. #Prison4trump

Georgia’s 2026 elections are shaping up as a test of whether voters still split their tickets. A glimpse of post-partisan politics? (via Bloomberg Opinion)

Georgia Is Testing Whether Voters Still Cross Party Lines

It’s no secret that US politics has gotten more polarized. That means fewer voters split their tickets, voting for both a Democrat and a Republican. Between 2008 and 2022, the percentage of voters who crossed party lines fell from 12% to 5%, according to Daniel Moskowitz at the University of Chicago.
