Watching the US waiting politely for midterms while norms are being fed into a wood chipper is not a strategy, it's denial with a calendar."

WATCH — @[email protected] : “They split NASHVILLE into 3 Republican districts so our votes drown in rural red. Now they’re doing it to MEMPHIS… this is what fear looks like when it has a supermajority. They can’t control us, so they divide us. Every map they draw assumes you’ll stay home.”

tRump is greenlighting massive U.S. troop cuts in Germany—abandoning our key NATO partner as Putin escalates threats across Europe.

Republicans in Utah just gutted voter privacy with SB 153: 1.3 million voters’ addresses, party affiliation, & voting history are now public record unless you’re “at-risk” & scramble to apply by May 6.

No more simple opt-out. Just GOP-enabled doxxing.

Protect yourself now.

Your face is becoming your password, and you can’t change your face.

Facial recognition systems turn your identity into a permanent digital key. If that data is breached, it’s not just another hack — it’s a lifelong vulnerability that can track you, expose you and be nearly impossible to undo.

Facial recognition data is a key to your identity – if stolen, you can’t just change the locks

You can change a stolen password or credit card, but you can’t reset your face when your biometric data is breached.
