Elections are run by the states and that’s not changing. Don’t give the regime power that it doesn’t have.

In a democracy, we are supposed to feel like we have control over our lives because the people control the government.
But in the U.S., people feel like our lives are out of control because the people don’t control the federal government.

The new "Make Elections Great Again" Act is full of unfunded, unnecessary, anti-voter mandates.
It would prohibit ranked choice voting in all federal general elections.

Trump was handed the racist baton of the Republican Party from Rush Limbaugh who used to have a segment on his radio show called “Obama the Magic Negro.”
If you find this funny or amusing in any way then you are beyond despicable. Our country continues to find new ways to hit rock bottom every day

Last night, Trump posted a video to his social media platform that contained a racist clip showing Barack and Michelle Obama as monkeys. It's still up:

It’s so disgraceful that Usha Vance sits silently while her husband carries water for one of the biggest racists on the entire planet. Her kids are growing up in a world where racism and bigotry are becoming normalized again and she is on the wrong side of history. Shameful.

Redistricting did not turn out how Trump wanted. So, now he is resorting to political prosecutions, ballot seizures and the threat of federal paramilitary to steal the 2026 midterms. He is normalizing the idea that his administration will take over ballot counting. We cannot let that happen.

Last year for Black History Month, we did a daily story on black accomplishments in the military to help introduce people to our new Bluesky page, so we'll try to be as equally ambitious this year. I'm sure you've heard of the Tuskegee Airmen but I bet you haven't heard this part of their history:

It’s a sad but true state of affairs in politics today that we need to acknowledge Leigh Wambsgands for conceding the race and not spreading false conspiracies that the election was stolen. But this is something that Trump would never do so thank you Leigh for respecting the will of the people.
So much for Texas redistricing..
Republican Leigh Wambsgands has conceded the race. Democrat Taylor Rehmet has won, flipping a Trump +17 district. A Democrat will represent Northwest Tarrant for the first time in 35 years..
