How quickly we lost the memory battle over 2020. For over a year now, when my students write about covid it's about how no one was allowed to leave their homes due to government mandates infringing on our individual liberties.

That never happened, and they're so certain it did.

A trial to determine whether Georgia can continue to ban abortion as early as six weeks into a pregnancy is set to begin. The lawsuit by doctors and advocacy groups argues the law violates the Georgia Constitution’s right to privacy and liberty. apne.ws/eM6pWR7

Jason Let The Right Link Ins Heather Cox Richardson (TDPR) My dad fought Nazis, one of 16M of his fellow Americans. My great uncle died due to conditions in a Nazi POW camp, dead like 298,000 other Americans in WWII.
Shunning Nazi wannabees is truly the least we could do to honor their sacrifices, the smallest token of what we owe them.

New on my Substack: Most GOPrs believe Democrats want to abort babies as late as seconds before birth. 25% believe dems kidnap kids, take them underground, sexually abuse them & drink their blood. These disturbed people cannot control our government. threats.substack.com/p/be-afraid-fo…

Hmmm... They delay the release before the party plenum and then the numbers are positive. Why am I suspicious?

No former president that Cruz mentions did what he claims.

Cruz (1) doesn’t know better, in which case basic decency dictates he shouldn’t say such things; or (2) he knows the truth and is blatantly lying.

Either way, this is unbecoming of a US Senator. And deeply embarrassing.

T.J. Stiles Heather Cox Richardson (TDPR) Cut to the chase:

The Republican party admitting they will not honor the outcome of any election they don't win is effectively equivalent to eliminating elections altogether.

Anti-semitism in any form is deplorable. In person. Online. Doesn't matter where. It's hate and it's unacceptable.

As with everything else, Ted just needed the photo op showing him cheering on the Astros, then leaves early in a tied game to a chorus of boos. The appearance of loyalty to the team. Just like sneaking off to Cancun.

Folks -- if someone tries to prevent you from voting and you're qualified to vote, ask questions and seek guidance (as the woman in this story did).

Don't surrender your vote!

Two things can be true:

1) GA GOP tried to suppress Black votes by new ID requirements and changes to laws, and

2) GA voters, especially Black voters, rallied despite these efforts to turn out in droves.

Don’t get it twisted. It’s still voter suppression, even when it fails.
