Voter ID in England led to racial and disability discrimination, report finds.

“The current voter-ID system is, as it stands, a ‘poisoned cure’ in that it disenfranchises more electors than it protects.”

The bold overtness of disenfranchisement is appalling and frightening. Let's treat these incidents as the death throes of bigotry and not the status quo it has been.

This is huge.

"United States 5th Circuit Court of Appeals decided Friday, ... that the prohibition constitutes cruel and unusual punishment, violating the Eighth Amendment."

If you still have any doubt that felon disenfranchisement is driven by race, read Justice Jackson’s dissent to the Supreme Court’s denial of certiorari.

I can’t imagine why SCOTUS justices would find affirmative action for people of color “unconstitutional.” It’s been “constitutional” for Whites for more well over two centuries.

The does not give a shit about small . And don’t let your asshole friend/brother in law/guy at the bar tell you any different. The regulations, restrictions on bodily autonomy, and they are currently forcing on everyone are the signs of the biggest government:

@Geri I doubt they'll have a centralised record of those stats - it might not even be registered locally. Post your findings, please.

"...the Republican strategy of ...looks like judicial rule where they cannot win. Where they cannot win by judicial rule, they will rule by procedural theft. Where they cannot persuade voters to vote for them, they will persuade the candidate they voted for to become one of them...deployed with the most exacting precision in states where racism already conditions the exclusion of nonwhite voters as inherently illegitimate."

Trump is really upset about the expulsion of two Black legislators from the Tennessee House. Not because the solely Republican-driven action was CLEARLY racially-motivated, but because the shameful move drew attention away from his whining, griping, and domestic stochastic terrorist antics.

They took down the Black men, but everyone can sigh that sigh of relief. The White woman survived, without a scratch. Whew!

America: where the White, the wealthy, and the weaponized enjoy more privileges and protections than the children their guns are routinely used to murder.
