The Nerd Reich

Democratic Congresswoman Angie Craig’s PAC is attacking MN LG Peggy Flanagan with deepfake AI to mislead voters. This is disqualifying. I would expect this from MAGA but beyond the pale to see this from Democrats.

Vote Peggy Flanagan for US Senate in MN

WTF Dept.
Why am I getting snail mail from E r i k a K i r k ?

Blanket Flower

Gaillardia, common name Blanket Flower, may refer to the resemblance of the inflorescence to the brightly patterned blankets made by Native Americans, or to the ability of wild taxa to blanket the ground with colonies.

Tomorrow is the CA-22 primary & Randy Villegas is running to flip this Central Valley congressional seat. He grew up on the programs this administration is gutting to give tax cuts to billionaires.

Michael Blake is running in NY-15 to unseat Ritchie Torres and give the Bronx a real people-powered representative.

We need to get candidates with actual integrity elected this primary season, and you deserve to hear from these two.

There is a difference between fighting antisemitism and weaponizing the word antisemitism.

I will not allow the memory of Jewish suffering to be used as a shield for government war crimes. And I will not let baseless accusations against American Muslims go unchallenged when 25 years of data flatly contradict them.

Read my analysis of the data from the ADL report that shows who is really behind antisemitism in the U.S.

Who Is Igniting Antisemitism in America?

The ADL receipts are in. Right-wing extremists are responsible for effectively 100% of antisemitic attacks in America. So why are politicians pointing at Muslims and the Left?

My article titled "Women Are Not Safe Around Men" is on pace to pass 1 million reads.

I expected to get hate from men telling on themselves, and while that happened, I've also received a number of emails and notes from men appreciating the research.

Women Are Not Safe Around Men

This is a fact. The data is unambiguous and the solutions exist. The only thing missing is the will to act.

Did you know the first time terrorists used planes to attack Americans wasn't on 9/11 or at Pearl Harbor? It was the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921 — when white supremacists flew planes to drop bombs and shoot at Black Americans.

This week marks the 105-year anniversary of one of the most horrific and underrecognized acts of racial violence in American history.

Today, the culprits faced zero consequences.
