As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:
“It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

A simple fact a lot of folks have forgotten is that elites have always seen democracy as a problem. As @steventdennis.bsky.social pointed out, if they had the votes to do all this stuff, they would have a long time ago, these aren’t new ideas, they’re just not afraid to force them thru anymore.

Having covered Tesla when it first started I can say unequivocally that company would never have existed without government subsidies. NPR on the other hand gets 98-99% of its revenue from non-governmental sources. But go off, Goebbels.

4/ who they are, whether they’re even American citizens. They all seem to be Thiel and Musk protégés. And I’ve had multiple references to their refusing to identify themselves by anything but first name. The rationale given is that they could be doxed.

Illinois has virtually no regulations on homeschooling, allowing parents to pull vulnerable children from public schools and then not provide any education for them. Officials call them "no schoolers."
