“Amid renewed suspicions of election fraud as the midterm elections near, a review of voting in #Arizona’s 2024 presidential election found only a sliver of the votes cast were possibly fraudulent.

Only 28 of the 3.6 million ballots cast were flagged as potentially illegal by an organization that crosschecks Arizona voter data with other states. That works out to 0.0000083% of total ballots.”

#voterFraud continues to be not a thing. Who knew? 🤷

This is the best article I've read about podcast monetization in a very long time, and I HATE talking about podcast monetization!

https://podnews.net/article/intimacy-over-scale

Programmatic ads really only bring in meaningful revenue when they get 100s of 1000s of impressions a month, which forces podcasters to cram 9 or more ads into each episode.

But direct sponsorship is quite different. Better for listeners, the creator, and the sponsor.

Religion apologists: Stop making fun of our very serious decrees!

Atheists: Lol, nah.

@WarnerCrocker

All too true. But we have something they do not—the ability to think ahead farther than 30 seconds. 😏

“Their injury is entirely hypothetical: Plaintiffs claim that including ineligible voters on the rolls ‘heightens the risk’ of ineligible ballots being cast and counted by offering ineligible voters ‘an opportunity’ to vote, ‘risking the dilution’ of plaintiffs’ ballots,’” the court wrote. “Plaintiffs may not ‘manufacture standing merely based on their fears of hypothetical future harm that is not certainly impending.’”

Agents of the U.S. Government are killing people right here in the U.S. and facing no accountability.

It’s getting increasingly more difficult to not break out the torches, pitchforks, and guillotines.

Happy birthday to my amazing wife, Dr. @SheilaDee.

Here we are pictured as two kids playing dress up in a mine or something from the late 80s.

Involved with #activism in #Arizona like me? You should follow @AZAdvocacyHub.

It’s a new account (no, not run by me) that’s surfacing great local #progressive info for #Phoenix and beyond.

Share with your fellow AZ friends, would you?

Hey, USian Democratic elected officials:

This is what we want •you• to be saying, believe in, and follow thru on.

Do this. Put it on repeat. That’s how you get (at least some of) the 1/3rd of registered voters who don’t vote to get off their asses and vote in the midterms.

Ignore the Democratic Strategists and their tired old ideas that are about keeping the status quo.

Enough is enough.

Hey, #Phoenix! Come join us at an anti-ICE rally and protest on Central Avenue, going on right now!

(And by us I mean me and Thomas right now. But we’d love to have you too! We’ll be here until 730 tonight.)

Ha! The #Sinema effect in full display as #Chandler rejects the AI data center she was paid to lobby for.

It’s not often I have positive things to say about that city, so I gotta give props when I can!

“Homeland Security sources confirm that Border Patrol teams under Commander Gregory Bovino will change tactics in their ongoing enforcement operations.

Instead of sweeping raids like those that have taken place at locations including Home Depot, agents will now be narrowing their focus to specific targets, such as illegal immigrants convicted of heinous crimes.”

What a novel concept. ICEholes.

The U.S. Military almost collided with a JetBlue passenger headed to the U.S. earlier today at 34,000 feet.

Why? They had their transponder turned off, as part of the war against Venezuela.

Epilogue, pt 1

This story had a happy ending. But most don’t.

In the cage were dozens of other detainees, all of them from Latin American, South Asian, or Middle Eastern dissent.

Phone calls out cost $50. And who memorizes phone numbers any more?

This has to stop. We need Nuremberg 2.0 trials. It will take generations of work to repair the U.S.’ reputation around the world.

Belay that "happy ending”. 😡

ICE, DHS, HSI, Pinal County Sheriff’s Office, or some other group of cruel and incompetent buffoons managed to "lose” his tourist visa card, his I-94, his driver's license (from Mexico), and his voter registration card (also from Mexico).
So... how's he supposed to get *back to Mexico* now?

Whatever our government does to them they'll do to us. This is why I keep showing up, making a scene, and spreading the word.

Did I mention #FuckICE?

I’m back in front of the ICE Field Office in Phoenix, supporting Sam, who’s doing a follow up interview with the media.

We’re lot letting this shit go.

9/5

He’s 27 years old. Lives and works in Rockey Point (Puerto Peñasco). Visiting his family for the holidays. Like he does every year.

No criminal record. None.

Nabbed during a “routine” traffic stop for “obstructed tags.” He wasn’t driving. Just a passenger. The vehicle was a work truck, so the cops called ICE on the suspicion he was working. He was not. And, again, valid and current travel visa.

And now they’re just fucking with him. And us.

Fuck everyone who voted for this.
