While we wait for the Supreme Court to rule in a critical redistricting case from Louisiana, this is what the GOP is up to in Texas and Ohio. Remember the GOP's plan is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat.

For those of you who knew Victoria Brownworth on Twitter, she passed away from cancer yesterday.
She was a fearless journalist who reported on AIDS in the 80s (when Reagan was ignoring it), lifted up the LGBTQ community, & rooted out corruption.
Her wife, Maddy Gold, died of cancer in 2022.

I am so over the media's framing of these kinds of issues. Who effing cares if the Trump administration wants to "make" Canada a state?
The correct framing here is: "Is the United States' position that it will no longer be adhere to international law when it comes to Canada?"
