Do you know, that the word idiot is from the Greeks? Do you know its original meaning? It was a specific word created to describe those people that don’t vote. So appropriate still today.

My late husband grew up in a Republican Christian conservative family. Then he grew up and went away to college, where he experienced something fascinating! All the nice people were Democrats and/or liberal. That began his renaissance. He was more left than me by the time we met, kid of a hippie

Accurate counts are the key to understanding underserved populations and planning the scale and extent of scarce resources to deploy to improve outcomes.
Hard to understand why federal guidelines want less information not more, except if it’s in order to minimize problems, even ones we can all see.

Some TikTok users are accusing the app of censorship after they attempted and failed to upload videos about ICE. TikTok says the ongoing glitches are related to a power outage.
