OSCE observers don’t control our elections. They observe the process and publicly report what they find. If election integrity is the concern, why turn away the people who help assess it?

Trump said in 2016 he’d eliminate the national debt in eight years. The national debt apparently took that personally.

It's almost like putting a quack anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist in charge of the nation's health policy has consequences. "The United States has now had more measles deaths in the past two years than we have had in the previous three decades combined...": www.ms.now/news/pennsyl...

Pennsylvania’s measles outbreak is the largest in decades in the U.S.
The state has surpassed 1,000 measles cases this year, health officials said Monday, making it the largest outbreak in the U.S. in more than three decades.

"Media that suck up to Trump for business reasons (such as Meta and Google) need to realize that an anti-fascist movement is here and they need to get aboard." Something tells me that if Ds win it won't be widely interpreted as a major verdict on the future direction of US culture, as 2024 was.

This intensely stupid right wing idea is an extension of Brexit ignorance and prejudice. It represents the failure of our politics and our media to act in our best interests and to inform voters properly. Brexit is more than enough idiocy. Leaving the ECHR shouldn’t even be on the radar.
