Once the regime falls we need to put in place automatic voter registration and universal vote by mail. 14A Sec1 literally says "No State shall...deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws". The right wing's voter suppression laws are literally unconstitutional.

The cheating-via-algorithm would have probably overcome even a full voter turnout.

"the house is on fire! we need to put it out!"
"let's not focus on blame. there's a lot of flammables in here that encouraged & fed this situation."
"sure, whatever, but put the fire out!"
"that kind of extremism only increases polarization. we need to work -with- the fire to protect the house."

You don't have to be old for that. I told my landlord just back in March 2024 that my job was iron-clad since it was a federal job, which is basically guaranteed as long as I don't do a major fk up. Until November 2024, government jobs still had job security. January 2025 sent them into tailspin.

Don't you love when a fictional novel inspires real life? 😖

Normally I'd tell you to look up the U-6 rate on BLS.gov. but not sure how accurate any of those stats are now that he's gotten his sticky orange fingers on them.

4) Let's ask all the veterans and surviving families of those KIA or MIA in Iraq, Afghanistan, Korea, and Vietnam if lack of formal declaration of war by US Congress made one damn bit of difference.

3) An attacking country might not declare war, but the country being attacked definitely can, so what do you think is gonna happen? If you punch someone in the face, do you expect them to just sit back and say "nah man you didn't declare a fight"?

2) Iraq, Afghanistan, Korea, and Vietnam (among others) were also not formally declared wars by US Congress.
