Check your Secretary of State’s website - they’ll have information for you. It seems like a lot of them are going to be letting you pick a ballot up in person and then mail it in after you fill it out.

So what is going to happen to states that have been only voting by mail for years? We have 72 days to re-establish and entire system?

A lot of people are mad at Merz for saying this, but where’s the lie? It’s really easy to get into a conflict. Getting out cleanly is a whole different animal.

German Chancellor Merz: It is quite obvious that the Americans have absolutely no coherent strategy whatsoever. There is a sense that a whole nation is being humiliated by the Iranian leadership, particularly the Revolutionary Guards.

Speaking of Jimmy Kimmel making a joke, remember when Liz Cheney’s life was threatened after Trump said, “Let’s put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her”? Maybe Liz Cheney should demand that Trump is fired.

I don’t want to hear any whining from anyone who attended the White House Correspondents Dinner about how scary it was for them. These people don’t do crap about school shootings. Gun violence is the number one cause of death for children in our country. They don’t seem too worked up about it.

“The President will be having a press briefing at the White House in 30 minutes” The room erupts into laughter. Narrator: The room then empties as the audience races to get to their live shots as quickly as possible.

Protests are very important because - we see that we are not alone - we connect with other people and organizations and find opportunities to help others - we build community which helps reinforce the movement. A lack of community is what got us here in the first place

The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III and Britain. Donald Trump and his regime have committed at least 20 of those same offenses highlighted in yellow. #NoKings

“Broken down into what government finances would look like as a household budget: “Household earns $52,446 and spends $73,378 — running a $20,932 annual deficit. Total liabilities and unfunded promises amount to $1,361,788 against just $60,554 in assets. $1.3 million in the hole.”

Voter fraud is so rare that Donald Trump has been convicted of more felonies than the total number of confirmed cases of illegal voting in US federal elections in the last 20 years. #SaveActTaxesVoting

This morning, I was at Pearl’s Bagels eating a bagel and lox, chatting with the lady behind me about the war. Her three-year-old chimed in and said that Trump was vastly underestimating the geopolitical consequences that will reverberate from another war in the Middle East.

The military draft comment from Leavitt feels like a trial balloon. If there's enough outcry, Trump denies it and Leavitt falls on her sword for "misspeaking." If there's not, Trump and Hegseth bring it up casually and slowly push. For example, Trump may "joke" about it as a next step. 1/2

“Don’t go to the US not with Trump in charge.” That isn’t a slogan. It isn’t a protest chant. It’s the warning of a woman who says she did everything right and still vanished into detention. When Karen Newton boarded her flight to the United States, she wasn’t sneaking across a desert border.
