iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

The GOP can't win anything resembling a fair fight. So they cheat. And cheat. And cheat. Passing lots of voter protection laws has to happen when Dems take back everything in 2028. But first, we have to clean up SCOTUS. Then the rest of the judicial branch will be less of a threat.

Don't assume you are ok to vote. Check your registration. I've been purged before, for no apparent reason.

Agree. All voters need to check registration. Check polling location. Check what ID is required. Understand what a provisional ballot is. WE need all voters to help new voters register. Time in some states is running out. Check registration today. Help others. It’s now or never again.

Not surprising in the least. I've been telling friends from other countries to avoid coming to the USA. After we win - and we will win - we have a lot of rebuilding to do. And a lot of assholes to prosecute.

Doctors shouldn’t be punished for providing their patients with legal abortion care—and extremists in Louisiana have no business dictating what doctors in Seattle can and can't do. This was never about states' rights—it was ALWAYS about banning abortion nationwide.

The existence of pro-Russia populism on the Right is easily explained: fascists birds flocking together. It's existence on the Left seems bizarre until you realize it is a combination of nostalgia for the USSR (which-yuck!) and the belief that any enemy of the West must be the good guys.

This is a stunning change from the 1990's and 2000's, when tech-industry leaders were among the most respected people in the country. Seriously. I got onto the Internet in the early-mid 1990's and the attitude was really very different. Those people were widely admired & esteemed. Not now.

Absurd as it seems, the US might still win the war against Iran since Iran's strategy has been to pressure the US by threatening the world economy and Trump doesn't care about that, leaving them not a lot of options. Now IF we win whether what we win will be worth the cost to both US and the world

there’s a viral tweet citing Kol Nidrei and the existence of Marranos during the Spanish Inquisition as proof that Jews are inherently untrustworthy and perfidious so apparently we’re bringing back medieval antisemitism

Nice thought but it isn't actually true. Nationalism (which is just tribalism writ large) isn't something most people have to be tricked into. It is the story of mankind going back long before nations. It's getting people to think beyond their group that is the real trick.

What does the latest SCOTUS ruling mean for your vote? The short answer: your path to the ballot box hasn’t changed. What happened? SCOTUS allowed limited, individual checks of the SAVE database. But federal law blocks bulk voter roll checks within 90 days of an election. Here's what to do ⬇️
