Reposted by Richard CorsoTaniel @taniel.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Important: the USPS rule that SCOTUS blocked tonight was Trump’s big plan to control and restrict mail voting. But a separate policy remains in place: USPS is no longer postmarking mail as soon it gets it, which is hugely important for deadlines. So people must mail back with plenty of time.boltsmag.orgIn an Intense Election Year, New Post Office Rules Could Trip Up Voter Registration - BoltsA change in how mail is postmarked could lead some voters to miss key deadlines, including voter registration. Advocates worry the people most affected will be those already facing voting barriers. 6520041027

It’s tied to Elon Musk’s America PAC and collects a lot of personal information from people who use it.

His record is one of serving only the rich and powerful, and stomping on the poor and vulnerable. So he scaremongers the public about socialism and crime.
