Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

If you're with ICE, you'd have been with the Nazis.

This government shutdown is on Republicans for refusing to negotiate. Democrats must continue to hold the line to protect our healthcare.

I AM (not) CHARLIE KIRK. I am Charlie Kirk.

The only responses I get are a toxic cocktail of culture war posturing, personal threats, phobic prejudice, anti-woke slurs, and Evangelical religious-speak, which, sadly, makes their performative rally cry of affinity with Kirkโ€™s messaging quite accurate.

What's Next โ€” No Kings

Whatโ€™s next after over five million people here in the US, along with allies in cities from London to Tokyo, stood united yesterday in the belief that democracy is worth fighting for?

Weโ€™re glad you asked. ๐Ÿ‘‡

No Kings Day was one of the largest days of protest in US history. From deep red small towns to our largest cities, millions of people turned out to make it clear that the American people will not bow to fascism. #NoKings

The top 10 on The Heritage Foundationโ€™s list are all red states that, in various ways and to various degrees, make voting much more difficult than Utah does, and generally have created high disparities in participation by race and by economic status. The top-ranked state on the list, Tennessee, has some of the nationโ€™s harshest rules toward people with past criminal convictions, disenfranchising hundreds of thousands of would-be voters for life and blocking about one in five Black adults from voting. Its voter turnout rates are consistently among the lowest in the country.

โ€œWe shouldnโ€™t want to be ranked high on this list,โ€ Menlove said. โ€œNothing on the list shows whether your elections are secure; itโ€™s all about whether you make it hard to vote.โ€

Utah Was a Rare Red State to Champion Mail Voting. That Era Is Likely Ending. - Bolts An old-fashioned, four-legged polling booth is on display in the lobby of the Salt Lake County clerkโ€™s office. Its metal frame roughened and its red, white, and blue privacy curtain... Read More

Bolts asked Utah's lawmaker who sponsored the bill ending universal mail voting why he filed it.

His reason? The Heritage Foundation, the architects of Project 2025.

He said Utah ranks low on Heritage's scorecard, & restricting mail voting would help.

They're not just reshaping federal policy.

Musk and his puppet Trump along with their Republican enablers in Congress are trying to cut Medicaid to pay for tax cuts for billionaires and corporate donors. Is this really what we want our country to stand for?
