BREAKING: A major win for VoteVets and democracy. Over 60,000 ballots—many from military and overseas voters—were nearly tossed in NC. We fought back. The court agreed. Justice Riggs’ win stands. Our Troops followed the rules. We made sure their votes counted.

So basically the position of the Trump Admin is if Ukraine doesn’t agree to all of Putin’s demands, and hand over their power plants and mineral rights to the US, then they don’t want peace so we should walk away from them.

Good time to subscribe to Wired. I used to think of it as a guilty pleasure at the newsstand, a holdover from nerdy youth. But they are doing an excellent job covering key elements of our political reality.

Any essential phrase or idea for American democracy, from "free speech" to "antisemitism" has been turned inside out to serve fascism.
We can't let that happen here. We have to take back language.
