How is this even legal?

It’s not legal. Mickie Sherrill needs to sue her opponent and/or use this deception as an ad campaign. Giving out that info is dangerous enough but info on a woman could be handed to a predator (which of course would include this action too)

Well, we all know that Trump, among other things (draft dodger; adulterer; etc.), is definitely not trustworthy with any kind of information of a personal nature.

No one is jumping in to save us. Far from it! WE the PEOPLE have 1 choice resist or die . We must hang together as they say, or hang separately. Point being wake up, speak out, stand up. NOW

Good documentation for states fighting the doj’s demand to hand over complete voter rolls.

I got an email the other day that said they were demanding all the names on the voter rolls and if I can recall correctly, I think it said from 27 states!

My understanding is that they are demanding all the information associated with each person on the voter rolls, i.e. personal information. States run elections. Feds have no legitimate need for the info.

Yes! That's why I was so angry when I read that. I was like, WTF??!!!! They have no right to do that! It's like Musk and his Doge BS! They got EVERY bit of PERSONAL info on ALL of us! EVERYTHING!! Now he just admitted it never saved any money!!!! I WISH we could SUE that SOB for that! But WE don't have enough $$$$$$$!!!

I imagine all that info is being swept up into a huge database compiled by Thiel’s Palantir to complete the surveillance state. Now, that is the Deep State.

It’s worse than you think. Trump gave over all the info stolen and “compiled” on each one of us to Peter Thiel, and his company (Palantier(sp?) an electronics company. Thiel is from South Africa and a longtime friend of Musk. He is also very close to JD Vance, who refers to him as his mentor. Trump is assembling this info with the intent to have a list of every single American (to prevent voter fraud??) and is to include every piece of info on each one of us that the company can find through any electronic means.

WA state has rejected that request so far. Very disturbing.

I have to ALERT everyone of an email that I just received just now! This is what it says. >>>:()

PLEASE share this information everywhere!! Man, I am SO pissed off today.

"In the "free state of Florida," Ron DeSantis and his handpicked Attorney General James Uthmeier are attempting to intimidate and punish Floridians for exercising their freedom of speech.

They’ve created an online portal where Floridians can report their neighbors to the state for what they say online. And they're making it clear: if you dissent, they'll come after you.

This is exactly the kind of government retaliation we're seeing from the Trump administration nationwide. It's a coordinated effort to silence their "opponents" at the expense of your First Amendment rights."

Hardly surprising that Trump's administration/government would do this. Wonder how much the Trumpers paid to somebody to have this happen!

Who remembers the Bush I administration rifling through Bill Clinton’s passport file during the 1992 campaign? The “Independent Counsel” hired to investigate this crime - the execrable Joe DiGenova - swept it under the rug. The criminality of the Republicans is not new. It’s decades old like a rotting carcas

Great piece! I'm looking for the same people who got us into this mess to get us out--Democrat leadership--I'm talking to you! I gave up my Dem party affiliation when they went off the rails with woke-ism, cancel culture, and too much focus on DEI. The nation's predicament right now is all about ideology, not practicality, because neither party can be practical when they're beholden to the billionaires and corporations (who own them). The first party to offer practical solutions for everyday folks wins my vote! Ideally, a new labor party emerges from the ashes of the existing parties. People-power makes America great, not money!
