Fellow Americans, this is an effective nonpartisan approach to ensuring our elections remain free and fair. Each state should make code changes to bring the code into alignment with their state’s election laws. Democrats and Republicans alike can review the open source code to ensure integrity.

The unadulterated racism expressed in this video by both Brandon Gill and Benny Johnson is breathtaking in its alignment to Nazi propaganda of the 1930s. MAGA -> Haitians & Somalis Nazis -> Jews

“It’s proper to blame President Trump…But Trump’s our president. If Americans in both parties don’t do their utmost to check and overturn his actions, we will all have been part of the betrayal of Ukraine. We will all have been part of a betrayal of America.” www.thebulwark.com/p/four-dimen...

This Isn’t Four-Dimensional Chess. Trump’s Helping Russia.

President Trump’s recent moves with respect to Ukraine may seem bewildering. But they’re not. He’s partial to the country’s invader.

The Ukrainians are extremely capable warfighters. It is a travesty that the current American administration is not supporting the Ukrainians as Americans should. It is the right thing to do. I stand with Ukraine. 🇺🇦

Today's Planet: Sunset on Mars. Imaged by the Curiosity Rover. Sunsets on Mars appear blue because the fine dust in the Martian atmosphere scatters the red wavelengths of the Sun's light. This is the opposite of sunsets on Earth, where the atmosphere scatters the blue wavelengths. #thedailyplanet

The uber-rich nazi and the felonious fascist-in-chief… Growing up in America, I never imagined that the White House would become synonymous with white supremacy and bigotry in the 21st century. I know now that democracy is indeed fragile, and American exceptionalism is but a footnote in history.

The U.S. should do whatever it takes to give Ukraine all of the support it needs - weapon systems, intelligence, training, - short of direct intervention against Russians by American military personnel.

Have once upon a time been a Rails dev, and now focusing on #rustlang instead, I was not surprised to find something like Loco. @steveklabnik.com what are your thoughts about it? Is it something you would use yourself, or is the WAY in Rust just different? github.com/loco-rs/loco
