NEW: Utah Republicans have passed legislation that would end universal vote-by-mail in their state.
Utah stood out for a while as the rare red state to really embrace mail voting... but the MAGA attacks on the voting procedures have ended up catching even with this state.

Utah Was a Rare Red State to Champion Mail Voting. That Era Is Likely Ending. - Bolts
An old-fashioned, four-legged polling booth is on display in the lobby of the Salt Lake County clerk’s office. Its metal frame roughened and its red, white, and blue privacy curtain... Read More

I don't know if the LA fire department is properly funded or not but the claim that the city cut its budget last year — which is circulating widely on the right — is false.
As Politico notes, the budget actually INCREASED by $50 million. A portion of the funding was approved in a separate bill.

Dems need to fix their social media game or they will never overcome this crap. They let conservative influencers overload the system with these viral claims and the truth is just being constantly trampled on.

For those just tuning in: I'm an American born in Korea, and I typically work out of the US. This week I am working out of Seoul. I have no particular expertise in Korean politics.
Me being at the protests during the declaration of martial law is just a weird fucking thing that happened.

In that week when Musk bought Twitter & started bungling it, the possibility occurred to me that he'd bought it to end its usefulness as a pro-democracy tool. I'm so grateful for BlueSky & the fact that we're all here now & that it's increasing possible to get our news here too!

Also, he barely even tried. In 2016, Trump put in the work. It was destructive work, but he put in the time. In 2024, he phoned it in with half ass blabbering bullshit ideas and concepts. The laziest presidential campaign of my lifetime. And yet...here we are. 🤷🏻♂️
