Between seizing ballots in Georgia, trying to leverage Minnesota to turn over its sensitive voter data, and political prosecutions, the DOJ is laying the groundwork to subvert the 2026 elections. I created Democracy Docket for times like this. Help it grow by supporting it now. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

Finally, legislation to abolish the 3-day waiting period for abortion on request has been introduced in the Irish Parliament. It's unconscionable that after the 8th Amendment was repealed in 2018 by the people, the "pro-choice" gov't put a bunch of anti-choice restrictions into their law.

I think we should have a national voting day.Everyone gets off work.It's a national holiday.Everyone gets to vote. Voting booths are open for 14 hours.Or you can have two days off and have the voting booths open for eight hours a day.Regardless,we need a lot of time for voting.This curb is cheating.

Putin is offering to stop his war crimes for just seven days. This is not the gesture of a confident commander; it is the maneuver of a leader whose army is close to breaking. www.msn.com/en-us/news/w...

Putin keeps making a complete fool out of naive gullible Taco Don Trump who keeps insisting that Putin is the one who wants peace & Zelensky doesn't.
And Trump says how nice Putin was to him by agreeing not to bomb Kyiv during the frigid cold, & hours later Putin bombs the shit out of Kyiv.

Wild that there are laws against convicted felons voting for President but not against convicted felons running for President or serving as President.

This should piss everyone off, and our tax dollars paid for this.

A massive building purchased by ICE for $70 million in Arizona to “warehouse” immigrants.

Calling this “housing” is a lie. This is storage. This is treating human beings like inventory.

News cycles are being manipulated to make people think a problem has been solved when it hasn’t. Bovino removed didn’t change anything but people have been tricked into thinking it did, so they move on. Same as it was.

Know this. The situation in MN is as bad as it’s always been. Don’t forget them.

I’m deeply concerned about the lack of impeachment for Rumple. Those files are so much worse than what I thought of.

I know for a fact they are sex trafficking all the kidnapped residents of the USA. And they will murder them.

Open letter to our Senators:

Gentlemen, Ladies, we don't really care about ICE not getting even more funding. We don't care about more "training" and more rules they won't follow.

We want ICE de-funded. Dismantled. Gone. Driven out of our cities.

I think it's rather sad that people are describing the ICE murders as "people are being killed by their own government", as though that were somehow unusual.

The majority of murders are committed by people known to the victims (relatives, neighbors, etc), but of the people killed by strangers...
