Former GOPer. Civil discourse & critical thinking desired. Truth is essential. Politics, economics, philosophy, history, phrases & quotes with some humor, wit & sarcasm. The chaos of the next 2 yrs will prove necessary to finally correct this MAGA mess.

USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later
Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

Trump: “Russia is gonna be helping. Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed. Putin was very generous in his feeling towards Ukraine succeeding, including supplying energy, electricity and other things at very low prices.”
That “generosity” comes with missiles, drones, blackouts, and mass grave I guess?

Zelenskyy calls Russia’s claim of a strike on one of Putin’s residences a “complete fabrication,” a lie designed to sabotage diplomacy, justify more attacks on Kyiv, and excuse Moscow’s refusal to end the war. He warns the world must not stay silent as Russia tries to derail peace.
