Main-lining high grade depression. It's my go-to threat when someone tells me they think anime is 'too silly' to watch.

"But I didn't do anything wrong!" - Last thoughts of a fascist oligarch.

Our oligarchs are drooling over how much power they imagine gaining in a Trump presidency and will do everything they can to ensure the manipulible fascist wins so they can have the kleptocracy they have been dreaming of for years.

These motherfuckers have denied me a CT scan twice in the last month. First after saying they needed additional diagnostics before the scan and then saying it just wasn't needed after my doctor did the additional (useless) tests that they asked for the first time.

Everyone who works at this corporate travesty should feel deeply ashamed for denying care for millions of people who need it.

States don't vote in a vacuum, in any scenario where Trump loses Texas he also loses closer states.

A lot of Trump voters vote for Trump and then leave the rest of the ballot blank. My ballot was 74 pages and Texas eliminated party line voting.

I voted yesterday in a packed blue district. It was crowded, which is good, but there was a notable absence of young voters, which is bad. Hopefully, this just means that experienced voters are more likely to vote on the first day of early voting and first time voters can be convinced to go to the polls before or on election day.

I see this as a push for Allred more than thinking Harris will win the state.

It will also motivate Trump voters to get to the polls to counter. Plus a 2-1 at this point just shows Democrat enthusiasm being high, which is good, but early vote numbers are a poor predictor of election outcomes.

What burns me is how long this has been going on and how many people who must have known but who did nothing.

It's not that grey. It is expressly illegal to pay someone to register to vote and a lottery prize is specifically called out in the statute as a forbidden form of compensation. It is a felony and punishable by up to 5 years in prison.

What CAH is doing is a grey area, paying people to create a voting plan isn't mentioned in the law so it skirts around the legality of it. This should probably also be illegal as a form of voter compensation but may require the law to be amended.
