Right now, in states throughout the country, new laws are being written not to protect the vote, but to deny it. The former president and his supporters want not only to suppress the vote, but to subvert it.
It’s wrong, undemocratic, and un-American.
Refusing to peacefully transition power to a leader elected by the people. Urging states to “get rid of” ballots and silence voters. These are the tactics of a fascist.
Democracy as we know it is on the line.

Ok, this is officially the scariest thing I've seen yet.
The Trump campaign is selling camo MAGA hats, calling supporters an exclusive army, and inciting fighting with a liberal "mob."
This November is going to be a true test our institutions and our democracy.
We should take this question of "How will we pay for it?" off the table. The US can fund anything it wants if there is the will.

I am a ferocious advocate of a set of what we'd call 'universal interventions.'
And, we need race-specific interventions.

There are only two causes why Black people are dying at disproportionate rates. Either there is something wrong with them. Or the cause is racist policies. And then it's on us to explain those policies.
