Democracy isn’t dying in darkness it’s being dismantled at the hands of the Supreme Court of North Carolina. @allisonjriggs.bsky.social won this election fair and square back in November. Her opponent is a petulant Confederate cosplayer who can’t handle losing. Concede Jefferson Griffin.

Thanks, Skywriter, for the easily readable and shareable version of my giant thread about immigrants being added to the Master Death Record by SSA and the DOGE bags. Feel free to share this version widely!!!!!

Ain't that the truth

🚨NEW: The NC Supreme Court's GOP majority will retroactively nullify 2,000 to 7,000 ballots from military and overseas voters unless they quickly prove their identity—but only those who voted in a few Democratic counties. Could overturn Justice Riggs' victory. appellate.nccourts.org/orders.php?t...

Historian here: “To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ― Theodore Roosevelt

Price gouging! This is why businesses need regulation.

No DOGE savings at all. It's all a complete lie. All they've done is fire qualified workers while not actually cutting spending at all.

The U.S. is the only major country on Earth that does not guarantee workers a paid vacation. When a husband, wife & kids are unable to spend any time together on vacation, that is not a family value. It's an attack on everything a family is supposed to stand for. Unacceptable.

This is a great piece from The Big Picture.

Mike is one of the most critical labor reporters in the country.
