How will the Supreme Court’s decision to revive a flawed citizenship database affect voters? We’ve already seen the impacts. Texas said it had used the system to identify 2,724 potential noncitizens on its rolls. But it confirmed this week that more than one in five were, in fact, citizens.

Nevada election officials said Thursday that 185 voters in the state who the Department of Homeland Security identified as noncitizens were all, in fact, citizens — the latest snafu in the department’s attempts to uncover illegal voters across the country. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

So....we can all agree, VP JD Vance appears to have killed the Pope, right?!? His visit was so disappointing and insulting, that he just had enough....or, MAYBE it was something more sinister (intentional)? I dunno, i'm just asking questions.

POTUS sent DOJ after his opponents, manipulating markets, "disappearing" citizens, rigged Media to fear voicing anything other than blind loyalty- therefore killing Constitution's Freedom of Speech, Press, + banning protests= Freedom of Assembly- has there ever been a more ANTI-American "president"?

Weird how trump & the GOP promised the American ppl they’d cut grocery prices only 2 tank the economy & destroy 401k’s. Now they’re telling us we have 2 “accept the hit & hardship”—same billionaires couldn’t be bothered 2 “take the hit” when spending $ on American made merch 4 maga tho. Weird.

So let me get this straight. Trump suggests immigrants r vastly rapists & y’all just agree. No proof. No trending investigation. Just blind agreement. But women that claim they’ve been sexually assaulted (esp trump himself) r ALL lying? Do I have your sh!t reasoning correct? They are all sheep.

When someone uses the word “loyalist” — they have already, in a single word, proven they have no interest in Democracy or accountability. For everyone that claims to believe in the sanctity of the U.S. Constitition, where is your patriotism now???

For those interested in politics, don’t ignore AI. AI models will further change politics into something that is probably unrecognizable. Just like a TikTok algo can get what it wants in front of you, campaigns will figure out how to get information to get you to vote , OUTSIDE of your phone/PC
