This is how white supremacy is maintained
Voter suppression is rarely sold by politicians as such. Instead it comes by way of logistical challenges such as reducing the number of ballot boxes in communities of color in Georgia, intimidation by “poll watchers” in Texas, or restrictive voter I.D. laws.
The Christian Nationalist Plot to Disenfranchise Women Voters
The SAVE Act, which purports to fend off the phantasmal threat of voter fraud, would throw millions of women off the voting rolls.

There’s an active fascist takeover going on. Let’s check in with the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary committee to see how they’re resisting it.
Oh… oh I see. They’re trying to blow up Section 230 and open the floodgates for Trump to censor the Internet. Inspiring!

Trump posts a fake Time magazine cover with a crown on his head and a headline calling himself a king, while falsely attacking President Zelensky—who is courageously fighting for his country’s survival—as a dictator. This is sick and disgusting rejection of basic human values.

Trumps comment simply drives home his alienness. Standing against his degeneracy is standing with America. We don’t have masters. We don’t bow to tyrants. Americas civic tradition is complex, democratic, libertarian, raucous, conflicted. It abhors tyrants.
