Do not use USPO ballot boxes Take the time to go directly to the election office. They have an iron metal ballot box inside that you can safely deposit your mail in ballot. This is what I did to secure mine.

Politics can be pretty simple: those trying to make it harder to vote, and trying to disenfranchise people from voting, aren’t to be trusted.

This election is putting into sharp relief how the entire GOP strategy is about ensuring as many people as possible can’t vote. At its most basic level, democracy is about voting. Support the party that supports voting. That’s the table stakes of democracy.

In 2020, Jared Kushner was senior advisor to the president of the United States, a full-time employee of the United States government, and was subject to numerous disclosure requirements and ethical restrictions under the Ethics in Government Act of 1978.

All these so-called “independent” Republicans will go right back to voting for Johnson as speaker, confirm every Trump nominee, vote with Trump on everything, and continue doing zero oversight on his corrupt regime. A vote for any one of them is a vote to continue all of that.

Where are all the “it’s only rape if there’s a conviction in a court of law” apologists? They seem pretty quiet on this one.

This is not by accident, people. It is purposefull. It is deliberate. It is a message Let me be perfectly clear... We, the people must be prepared to respond... With either our vote or with actionable resistance should that fail. There is nothing left for us to do but revolt

Here’s a book you can read by its cover: as pressing a topic as we have and the most thoughtful and clear Supreme Court expert writing it. Will be indispensable.

Last month Trump’s DHS sent Nevada a list of 185 names it said were non-citizens who had been illegally registered to vote. State election officials checked every name. And this week, they told the DHS that every person on their list is actually a lawful U.S. citizen. This is a fascist regime.

Trump during the 2024 campaign promised to bring mortgage interest rates down to 2%: “We’re going to bring it down really fast. We will drive down the rates so you will be able to pay 2% and you will be able to finance and refinance your homes at much lower cost.”

Q: Mr Whatley, are you ashamed that you campaigned with child rapist Daimon King? Do you think it's okay to campaign with people who abuse children? Do you think the Trump administration should release the Epstein files, or do you want to protect those pedophiles as well? MICHAEL WHATLEY: *flees*

I'm serious when I say I've lost track of all the recent revelations of literal Nazis working in high-level positions in Republican congressional campaigns and I would very much appreciate a journalist who took the time to detail as many of them as can fit into an article.

Ossoff: "Then there's the ex-staffer posting swastikas and Klan regalia. And the neo-Nazi with a million followers who produces neo-Nazi propaganda at Collins's house ... a man who won't take responsibility for what happens under his own roof can't be trusted with our national affairs."

Every 2 years, Republicans roll out culture wars & lies to US workers to secure their votes to acquire power to enrich themselves and their wealthy cronies during the other 724 days until the next election when they run the playbook again with Fox as their Ministry of Propaganda.
