We actually had the 16th highest mortality rate in the world and it largely resulted from the ignorant asshats who were *resisting* the common sense protection measures Fauci was promoting like masking and distancing. What a colossal asshole.

Outgoing Senators John Cornyn and Thom Tillis are reportedly undecided about Todd Blanche's nomination for AG. A single GOP "No" vote in committee this Thursday could tank Blanche's nomination entirely. Call and tell them to reject Blanche: (202) 224-3121

UPDATE: Pro-voting groups are again asking a court to block a proposed rule that would let USPS withhold mail ballots from states that refuse to hand over voter data to the federal government. The request comes after an appeals court allowed USPS to move forward with the proposed rule last week.

Trump’s DOJ launched a new ‘election integrity’ website. It’s riddled with errors
The Trump administration’s new “election integrity” website is so comprehensive that it includes completed actions from the future.

Epstein survivor Dani Bensky on meeting with Blanche:   "Todd Blanche treated the meeting as a mere 'check-the-box' exercise intended to secure votes for his confirmation. He danced around his wording, repeatedly interrupted us and could not commit to anything that would demonstrate good faith."

Trump wants you to believe his false claims that there were vulnerabilities with ballots and voter registration in 2020. The most dangerous part about his lies? He’s using them to set the groundwork to contest the 2026 election results when Republicans ultimately lose. demdock.com/4wLW7S3

An Iraqi soccer player was detained for hours when he arrived here for the World Cup. A Somali referee was outright denied entry. Iran's team is not allowed to stay in the U.S. The World Cup is supposed to bring the world together. Instead, Trump is using it as an excuse to be racist and cruel.

Why do so many feel like they've fallen behind? It's not because of immigrants, trans people, DEI, the “deep state,” or any other bogeyman trotted out by the GOP. It's because big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

NEW: Trump seized on California's slow vote count to push false claims that Democrats are "stealing" the state's primary elections. He also used the assertion to pressure lawmakers to pass the SAVE America Act, which would ban vote by mail — a method voters in the state largely rely on.
