Preventing Vote Manipulation Establishing Free and Fair Elections

People are putting all their hopes in special elections and mid-terms to change the direction of what's happening in our country right now. But campaigning and outreach for these upcoming elections alone cannot accomplish this as long as votes can be manipulated.

Trump donor Larry Ellison’s Oracle will oversee TikTok’s algorithm.

His media company owns CBS News and is plotting a bid for Warner Bros., which owns CNN.

When billionaires take control of communication platforms, it’s not a win for free speech. It’s a win for oligarchy.

Trump administration cancels annual food insecurity survey, USDA says The USDA said it will continue to have access to more "timely and accurate data".

President Trump & his enablers are trying to hide the truth about how its actions affect real people and communities. Ceasing to collect data on how many people face food insecurity is the latest example of the admin's ongoing efforts to suppress information that undermines its narrative and agenda.

In anticipation of 🧠🪱’s b.s. “autism cure” announcement today (& the eugenics baked in it)

Remember: Autistic voices must be at the center of these convos

TLDR: Autism = human diversity, not a flaw to erase. We, autistic or not, all need support to thrive 🫶

“When we’re talking about LGBTQ content creators and queer content online, what we're talking about is an algorithmic silencing of this content,” EFF’s Paige Collings told @bayareareporter.bsky.social - even as anti-LGBTQ hate content proliferates on the same platforms. www.ebar.com/story/15829...

I voted, but my vote was changed Christofascists did NOT win the election. Don't let them control the narrative.

Again: this is not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

“In a far-flung province known for its extreme right-wing politics, the ruling party is holding an opposition party official hostage in the Capital building.

The lawmaker, who is a member of the Black ethnic minority, has been told she’d be arrested if she leaves the building.”

I like presidents who know Slavery is bad, not "WOKE."

Well, this we can agree on, even Senator Thom Tillis is calling out his own colleagues: “Too many elected officials are motivated by pure raw politics who don’t really give a damn about the people they promised to represent on the campaign trail,” the North Carolina Republican wrote.

A Discussion of Statistical Anomalies in the 2024 Election in Texas (It’s bad, y’all)

We must address the underlying issues with election integrity *BEFORE* we can even think about mid-terms. As it stands, the winners of the mid-term elections will be whoever has access to the technology and billionaires needed to manipulate the vote.

16 million Americans will lose their health care if Republicans pass Trump’s budget bill.

51,000+ people will die annually as a direct result.

Mitch McConnell says “they’ll get over it.”

He should look into the eyes of people who might die and tell them to “get over it.”

Trump to strip protections from millions of acres of national forests The Agriculture Department said it would begin the process of rolling back protections for nearly 59 million roadless acres of the National Forest System.

Trump’s decision “will open up vast swaths of largely untouched land to logging and roadbuilding, including about 30% of the land in the National Forest System — encompassing 92% of Tongass, one of the last remaining intact temperate rainforests in the world…”

Three Years After Roe—What We Feared Is Confirmed Infant and maternal mortality rates continue to spike, with Black and brown women and babies suffering the most

The data is undeniable:
•15 of top 16 states with the highest rates of infant mortality are red states that deny/ban repro access.
•12 of top 13 states with the lowest rates of infant mortality are blue states that protect repro access.

Why is this even a debate?

This is oligarchy. This is obscene.

While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%.

End this oligarchy.

Senate Republicans' latest version of their budget bill would effectively bribe state governments to eliminate regulations against AI in order to receive federal funding for broadband expansion.

Yet another reason it's a Big Ugly Nightmare.

This is a straight up lie.

The Speaker of the House lying over and over again about Americans’ health care should be treated as a huge scandal.

Every Republican in Congress wants to cut Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for billionaires.

And every American should know it.

It’s not enough for Stephen Miller to orchestrate Trump’s deportation agenda.

Miller recently disclosed over $100K of stock in Palantir, the shady data firm ICE uses to target and round up immigrants.

He’s cashing in on his own cruelty.

Trump & the GOP have:

-Killed CFPB rules saving consumers $15B in overdraft and credit card late fees
-Dropped 22 CFPB actions against corporate lawbreakers
-Halted $100M in restitution owed to student borrowers

They're on corporate predators' side, not yours.
