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.

For them to admit they’re wrong at this point is to say “people are dead because of me. Children are dead because of me”. They think being wrong forever is better than having to live with that reality.

In case you missed that list of DOGE emails to send all the spam to, car warranties, loan applications and any other creative ideas you have. Just remember to use an anonymous email if sending them a direct message.

Why take a perfectly safe vaccine to prevent getting sick when you can just get sick from a preventable disease and probably be fine but maybe die.

What's with all this dubious character assassination I'm seeing from rollingstone?

LM isn't a saint but the message that he has come to embody is an important and vital one that can not be trivialized through any media, including rollingstone. RS should focus upon the message and not the messenger.

The list of words Trump is banning from government is the most stunning document of our time. Click the image below to see how many words Trump and Musk have canceled as part of their new Reich.

We are experiencing an assault on science unparalleled by anything I’ve seen in my life. It’s not one issue or another anymore, the entire institution is under attack by the most powerful individuals in the country.
