“The Justice Department has embarked on an effort to compile the largest set of national voter roll data it has ever collected, to essentially establish a national voting database.”

I’m sure they have good intentions. 🤦‍♂️

Literal conversation with a campus journalist yesterday: "Don't like bad press? Don't do bad things."

People in trouble will try to blame the messenger as a deflection.

That doesn't mean the message isn't vital to society.
You know what media is NOT bending the knee in the Trump era? College journalists! The Harvard Crimson's brutal takedown of the lecherous ex-prez Larry Summers is just the latest example of students showing a failing 'grown-up' media how it's done

You may not be able to afford rent and groceries, and your health insurance may be about to skyrocket in 42 days, but the good news is that the Saudis got F-35s, nuclear tech, and security guarantees after putting hundreds of millions in Trump’s pocket.

Why don’t the Democrats do something? you ask.

They did. They are.

Here’s one huge victory right now, courtesy of Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer.
🚨BREAKING: Federal Court permanently BLOCKS the administration from implementing part of Executive Order requiring documentary proof of citizenship on the federal voter registration application.

A BIG VICTORY for our clients--DNC, DGA, DSCC, DCCC, Sen Schumer and Leader Jeffries--and all voters!

It was obvious and we did start preparing on the day after the election. The only surprising things were the rapidity they were able to what they said they were going to do, and the utter cowardice of institutions that caved early on. 95% of their plans were laid out in Project 2025.

My brother wisely asks:
Why is it that every disappeared US citizen is not front page news? At the very least we should have a little box with a count of the number of citizens who have been taken away and are not locatable and a link to a story with photos & min-bios, just as we used to do with military casually figures.
In Portland, Oregon, masked ICE GOONS abducted and vanished US citizen Gonzalo Catalan last week. Tragically, his family remains unaware of his whereabouts and has not received any communication from him as of today.

Actually they voted in what they thought was their own navel gazing best interest only to be abandoned post election. That's what happens when youre a good german only interested in you and yours. Fascists depend on it.

Just for the record, in 2020:
- Wray was the FBI director Trump handpicked to replace Comey
- Jack Smith was in the Hague prosecuting Kosovo war crimes
- Garland was an appeals court judge
- Monaco was in private practice in LA

There was no Biden administration yet, crooked or otherwise.

He crazy.

They wanted this to happen to other people not them. This is what they voted for and got. You can say their were lied to, but that fact was easily discoverable at the time. They actively wanted this or chose willingly to be blind to it. Excusing their bad behavior is NOT a way forward!

Nah. People have agency. Maaaaaaaaany are just addicted to white supremacy and patriarchy. Those systems are their binkies, their security blankets.

Unity can still happen (not giving up, just being historically literate) but those folks have to demonstrably denounce those oppressive systems.

This is an emergency. In a month, health premiums are going to go up by 75%, ruining families' lives. What's happening in Chicago, where people's rights are being obliterated, is an emergency. What the FCC is doing - censoring our political speech - is an emergency.

Anyone sick of calling the DOJ, department of “justice” or Roberts & his minions “Justices”? Neither do anything that is just? They should be “InJustices”.
Waiting for Roberts to give us his best “Tanner” speech today,as he wipes away civil rights laws.

Originalism is a SEDITIONIST theory—seeking to UNDO Constitutional Amendments, such as the end of slavery & women’s voting rights. Originalists want to undo the intent of those changes through regressive interpretation.

Originalists would take us back to 1780.

Think about what that means.
