This whole slew of twitter spats is an apt illustration of the current environment. It started with a link I posted without comment from the Times of Israel which discussed a poll of American Jews. The poll had a number of findings but the headlines focused on the data point …

The idea that democratic socialists are hypocrites if they have jobs or money or nice houses is so fucking painfully stupid that honestly every time I encounter it I just want to quit society and go raise alpacas in the mountains, but god, it just never dies & people never stop falling for it.

Nicole Murphy was incarcerated in Maine during the 2024 presidential election. Prisoners in the state retain the right to vote while behind bars, but no one spoke to her about it, she says. “It felt like your voice was completely silenced in there.”

Maine is one of the only places in the country where prisoners keep their right to vote. But logistical barriers to voting still contribute to their larger exclusion from the political process.

AP has called Tuesday's special election in a Pennsylvania state House district for Democrat Brandon Dukes. This is a FLIP for Dems. Their 6th so far in 2026 (and in the reddest district so far, this one was +18% Trump), and their 31st since January 2025. The GOP has flipped 0 seat in that period.

Voter roll purges are necessary to remove people who have passed away, moved or otherwise become ineligible to vote. But sometimes purges can erroneously include thousands of eligible voters. As the Trump administration ramps up its attacks on voting, it’s time to check your registration status:

A nuclear deal for the Saudis. A media blackout for Kushner’s corruption.

Just start calling ICE officers “Donald Trump’s death squads.” Don’t ever make what they’re doing sound legit. “When they’re not killing, Trump’s death squads are rounding up people to be sent to his concentration camps where his camp guards will torture them.” That’s not even exaggerating.
