SCOTUS will soon decide whether it'll gut Section 2 of the VRA and effectively disarm courts from addressing racially discriminatory voting practices.

This moment isn’t just about Louisiana's map — it’s about protecting Black voters’ right to fair representation, Damon Hewitt writes.
Beyond Callais: We need new tools to uphold voting rights
Over 60 years of precedent and protection for voters of color, especially Black voters, could be upended and voided if SCOTUS fails to uphold the right to vote.

On the one hand, this is yet another horrific development.

On the other hand, fuck you Tim Cook. You're the latest to discover that selling your soul to Donald Trump will gain you nothing.
The FTC has sent a letter to Tim Cook because Apple News is too woke and needs to include more right wing content.

BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.

The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

Donald Trump has been telling us that if he doesn't like the outcome of the elections he will seize ballots. He wants Republicans to take control of voting. He wants to take over elections in Democratic states.

People should be concerned and we all need to be ready.
