I really don't understand this #WashingtonPost coverage. Who is the #President? Why isn't #Biden's current policy plan on the border getting the main headline and #Trump's anticipatory policy (with a photograph fro 2019 no less) is?

Unlike Oreo, Shadow loves a good rainy day. He’ll watch the rain for hours, and go run around in it until his fur is wet, and then come for a cuddle. #caturday

It's Holocaust Memorial Day. Never forget all the victims of Nazi racist genocide. That's all 17m of them.

No photo of Oreo on this #caturday. He’s hiding in the closet in my shoe basket because it’s thundering outside.
A former classmate of mine is finally going through graduation today. I find it so interesting that some people are willing to drag out doing a dissertation. There’s another guy who was in class with us who’s only just now starting his research.

President Abraham #Lincoln in letters to Joshua Speed, had prophetic vision on the politics of the future #UnitedStates.
"When the #KnowNothing get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty-to #russia for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy."

Good news a from NC. Republicans passed a law that required a postcard be sent to the address of any person who took advantage of same-day registration, if the card was undeliverable by the post office the vote would be thrown out.
(The voter would *not* even be notified this happened.)
Like many voter suppression laws, it almost sounds sensible: if you don't think about it much.
On closer inspection, it is designed to target poor, minority and/or young voters. 1/

In any other country, this would be front page news:

More pro-life BS...
"If they think this was him enjoying his hypoxia, then saying what happened last night was 'textbook' are just words without meaning."

@AlliFlowers I don't know. they seem very good at bad ideas. Like never, in a million years, would i have suggested they guzzle horse dewormer or blame 'demon semen' for covid. And yet. And yet.

Reminder: all you have to do to donate to campaigns in the USA, is open or buy a US corporation.
Thanks to Citizens United, there's nothing stopping pro-democracy advocates from other countries from buying an American election.
Thanks to Trump's tampering with trade agreements, register via Canada & Mexico.
If Russian oligarchs can make Mike Johnson into the Speaker, & the FEC won't stop you...
