@nicholasgrossman.bsky.socialReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.socialUh oh, did someone’s website and personal account experience a big drop in activity after Ukraine hit a Russian data center?
@chadbourn.bsky.socialReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.socialUkraine blows up Russian data centres and immediately and mysteriously online talk about Germany’s Far Right AfD virtually disappears. Stop Putin you stop the Far Right.
@paseculardems.bsky.socialTake note.
@schwanksta.comReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.socialA year ago, @propublica.org told you immigration agents had detained more than 170 U.S. citizens.
We’ve updated our count, and we’ve got all the receipts.
The tally: At least 506 citizens detained. Sometimes held at gunpoint, handcuffed, or even deported.
@ffrf.orgReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.socialWell, this explains a few things.
New research links stronger Christian nationalist views with lower cognitive ability, even after accounting for education.
Turns out critical thinking may be Christian nationalism’s natural enemy.
@paseculardems.bsky.socialDark money PACs aren't spending out of civic goodwill. They're buying outcomes. Their weakness? Money only works when turnout is low. If they can't win your vote, the next best thing is that you never cast it. Flood your feed: it's all rigged, your vote won't count, why bother. All lies and grift.
@r5-to-philly.bsky.socialReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.social"The midterms at this point are one thing that looks very much out of his control. Now is not the time to convince ourselves we have no power. Now is the time to use the power we have to crush the fascist Republicans, and then to kick them when they are down."
@ffrf.orgReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.socialThe Pentagon doesn’t need a theology department. Service members need their religious freedom protected, including the freedom to practice a minority faith or no religion at all. Hegseth’s job is to defend the Constitution, not use the military to advance his own Christianity.
@markjacob.bsky.socialReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.socialRepublicans know the key to their power is getting people to disengage from participation in democracy.
@paseculardems.bsky.socialDUI hire needs to be impeached.
@democracydefendersaction.orgReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.social2 things you need to know about the SCOTUS ruling 1) It does not allow states to conduct mass voter roll purges before the midterms. 2) “Noncitizen voting” is a ruse to interfere in our elections. State audits keep confirming it. We & partners are fighting all attempts to silence eligible voters.
@brennancenter.orgReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.socialVoters, the coast is clear. You can vote with confidence. It’s five weeks until Election Day. Make a plan. Vote early in person. Vote as early as possible via the Postal Service. Vote via a drop box. Vote on Election Day. Make your voice heard. Read: bit.ly/4xAfxJu
@thornus.bsky.socialReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.socialOnly in corporate America could a dictator announce an agreement in place for seventy years and renegotiated by Colin freaking Powell and the idiotic corporate media breathlessly announce it like it’s a brand new Apple product.
@paseculardems.bsky.socialThis zealot does not believe that states can conduct their own elections. He and his leader want voter rolls from every state and are spreading lies about election administration. Why? Election administration doesn't lobby but big data sure does. They are selling us off for pennies and botox.
@sundaedivine.lolReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.socialBad day for anyone whose election strategy begins with “What if fewer people voted?”
@rcfp.orgReposted by @paseculardems.bsky.socialA Pennsylvania police department is ignoring a reporter’s request for records related to the agency’s partnership with ICE — even after he won an appeal.
Now, an @rcfp.org attorney is helping @lancasteronline.bsky.social fight back.
@paseculardems.bsky.socialPOTUS is a chaos agent and grifter. Elections are run by the states and you will get your mail ballot. Don't believe the scare tactics designed to reduce voter turnout. Payouts from DOGE, or for voting GOP, or for tariff refunds will NEVER trickle down. Wealth transfer is the point. VOTE.
@paseculardems.bsky.socialI don't have words and I really want to know more. WHAT were his orders? This guy knowingly pushed election conspiracies that led to an insurrection. Now he resigns, over ethical issues?
