She Won, Part X: VR Systems, 151 Fake Vote By Mail Reports, and a False Certification.

Could Florida’s precedents, Boardman v. Esteva and Taylor v. Martin County, invalidate election results without auditing a single ballot?

Thank you, Bonnie. I hope you have a beautiful day!

It’s true. Many were raised by misogynistic fathers and not feeling they have value, go straight into marriage with a misogynistic husband.

SCOTUS has been focused on chipping away at civil rights laws and policies for 20 years.

Today, the justices will hear oral arguments in a case that could represent not just another chip, but a fatal blow to the load-bearing pillar of American multi-racial democracy: The 1965 Voting Rights Act.

Voting Rights Are on the Supreme Court’s Chopping Block

Tuesday's case pits fanciful claims of racial harmony against the reality of ongoing discrimination.

FEMA brought a trailer in with washers and dryers after a hurricane nearly wiped out our town. It was a a blessing. Most of us still didn’t have power or water 3 months in. Love this idea.

The President’s authorities under Article II are limited to responding to an armed attack/the threat of one and do not apply here.

These continued strikes — 27 killed to date — risk getting the U.S. into a full fledged war.

Bobby Walker, former vice chair of the New York State Young Republicans, has apparently deleted his Twitter account.

Politico’s story reported that Walker referred to rape as “epic,” used slurs, and participated in a thread about sending opponents to the gas chamber.

Employees in the Secretary of State’s Office (Elections Division) or a Commission of Elections, depending on your state, having contact with machines, software or ballots - or may be left alone with those above - needs to pass a lie detector test day before tabulations and day after.
