You have my sword, milady.

A reminder that Nazi Musk created a fake voter registration website called “Vote Safe.” It is far from safe as it was made to steal information from voters. Never go into that site, ever. Please let everyone know.
Former White House Chief of Staff to President Biden, Ronald Klain. This isn’t hyperbole. It’s why more and more people like Ron are standing up and stating the obvious. They know how close to the end of democracy…and freedom…we are.
Stephen Miller and Donald Trump are illegally using ICE as their own personal military force. ICE is killing people on our streets. Ranking Member @robertgarcia.house.gov is right: we need aggressive INVESTIGATIONS and justice for families terrorized by this administration.

The AI industry wants you to say "the AI just did that thing on its own!"
Like, United Health's AI that's denying a shitload of claims with a 90% error rate? They wanted you to think it's just the AI.
We’re in an era where the fight against fascism and authoritarianism is on almost every ballot. Voting has always been important, but never more than now. Vote like your rights, your future, your vote itself, and even your life, are all on the line. Because there’s a very good chance they are.
“I pledge, to the greatest president in the history of the United States, that loves us so much he can’t even breathe, that I will go out with my family, my friends, I’ll do it any way, I don’t care if I’m registered or not, I’m gonna try and cheat like hell.” trib.al/hR5Y7Lz
