Very happy to announce the Spanish edition of Bring the War Home, coming 10/19 from @capitanswing.bsky.social. Though it has been almost a decade since its publication, this history still has much to teach us about white supremacy, racism, violence, & the way these forces structure society.

🚨BREAKING: GOP lawyer Cleta Mitchell and convicted election denier Tina Peters are pushing a scheme to have Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick seize voting machines, as part of a broader effort for the Trump administration to interfere with the midterm vote. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Election deniers Cleta Mitchell and Tina Peters want Trump’s commerce secretary to seize voting machines
The problem? No federal official can seize control of election administration from the states and counties, who hold the power run elections under the U.S. Constitution.
