“This would prevent only a tiny amount of noncitizen voter registration but stop millions of eligible voters, who do not have easy access to documents such as passports, from registering to vote,” Richard Hasen, an election law expert at the University of California, Los Angeles, said in a blog post.
There are also concerns that married women who have changed their last names may face difficulties registering to vote, as their birth certificates reflect their maiden names.
The advocacy group Public Citizen pointed out that roughly 146 million Americans do not have a passport.
This also, of course, affects other groups of people that have legally changed their names, but may have difficulty in getting the name on their birth certificate changed. Coupled with the increased difficulty some of us have suddenly been saddled with in obtaining or updating our passports, a pattern may be emerging.
Or maybe I’m just being paranoid? Nah, I’m sure that’s not it at all.
Karoline Leavitt is now saying not war plans and the public can decide for themselves and all that matters is the mission was successful.
She asked do you trust Hegseth or Goldberg?
I trust my eyes.
Leavitt just pulled the Biden killed 13 service members in Afghanistan card so the democrats and the media have no business lecturing about a successful mission.
The former president has been accused of five crimes including attempting a coup d’etat.
Published On 26 Mar 202526 Mar 2025
Brazil’s Supreme Court has ordered former President Jair Bolsonaro to stand trial on charges of attempting a coup d’etat after failing to win the re-election in 2022.
Bolsonaro, a far-right former army captain who served as Brazil’s president from 2019 to 2022, is accused of five crimes, including an alleged attempt to violently abolish the democratic rule of law. He has denounced the accusations against him as “grave and unfounded”. …
And Waltz is claiming that Goldberg actually appeared in the group under a different name (and that he has no idea how this reporter’s contact information appeared on his phone - maybe he was hacked!), which just adds a whole new layer of dumbassery. (And all of which leaves aside the stupidity and illegality of using Signal in the first place.)
@sqlrob
Jebus Mice - is the new administration line really that “it’s all a hoax, they weren’t war plans, they were attack plans!”?
Oh, but they clearly said “for,” not “four,” so it’s actually all a hoax, and of course the answer is “five.” Or something.
They’re pretending that Goldberg somehow added himself to Waltz’s contacts, under a different name, to dishonestly shift the blame. (Which needs serious investigation! Because this is totally a legit accusation! So obviously Elno must investigate because he’s a tech genius, not because he’s an idiot who will report back whatever the administration wants him to.) This is supposed to be exculpatory for Waltz, but if such a thing really could happen, it just reinforces why using Signal on a private phone was an incompetent and illegal choice to begin with.
One of Mr. Bolsonaro’s kids left everything in Brazil, went to the US and said He will look for ways to end the dictatorship of justice (sic) in Brazil.
These guys are braggarts, they live an illusion that the real world does not support. They manipulated public opinion for years, but the law was stronger. In 2018 Mr. Eduardo Bolsonaro said with disdain: “If you want to shut down the Supreme Court do you know what you do? Don’t even send a jeep. Send just a soldier and a corporal. This is not to discredit the soldier and the corporal,” said the elected deputy to an audience of students, in a lecture before the first round of the presidential election.
“From what we have been told subsequently, the student’s visa status has been terminated, and we seek to confirm whether that information is true. The university has no additional information at this time about the cause or circumstances of the student’s apprehension and is attempting to learn more about the incident,” it continued, in part.
Rebecca Solnit has been getting credit for calling this administration’s attempted takeover “the Stupid Coup.” This fuckup really is a glaring example to all but the most oblivious of how stupid these people are. And yes, insecure macho blowhards, like apparently all the men in this administration, hate being called stupid and laughed at for it. This fuckup is perfect ammunition for opponents, and at the very least, I can’t imagine Tramp not firing someone over it.
Von Clownstick’s ego and power trip have become so inflated, that even firing someone (that we all know was incompetent from the outset) would be admitting failure. Maybe will see resignations if Fuckface sweetens the pot to compensate them for eventual scapegoating.
