For decades, more Republicans voted by mail than Democrats
Then, in 2020 Democrats flocked to mail voting as a safety precaution during the pandemic
Now Republicans don't like mail voting
Republicans just don't like any method of voting used by Democrats
“I don’t care for mail-in voting,” said Mark Finchem, the Trump-backed Arizona secretary of state candidate. “That’s why I go to the polls.”
He voted by mail in 28 of the past 30 elections. (the The ReidOut Blog) on.msnbc.com/3TdTbdi

Like Lincoln when he wrote in 1855 that he in a way prefers to our Know Nothings "some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty--Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy."

Thinking of the Republicans' descent into a Know-Nothing Party led me to look again at Lincoln's July 10, 1858, remarks on the equal right of immigrants to consider themselves "blood of the blood, and flesh of the flesh" of the authors of the Declaration.

Republicans are anti-democratic, so a defense of democracy is inevitably a condemnation of the GOP. The disease of whataboutism, false equivalence and cluelessness about the threat to democracy continues to plague too many news outlets.

“It is a terrible damage that they are causing to our country. I wish it were just the big lie… it’s more than that.” Former GOP Sen. John Danforth slams efforts by pro-Trump politicians and conservative media to undermine election integrity

.@Liz_Cheney: "I will never put party above my duty to the Constitution. I swore an oath under God and I will abide by that oath. I won't say something that I know is wrong, simply to earn the votes of people, to earn political support."

Ponder this, folks: These stunning Trump revelations are not seen by most GOP leaders as disqualifying, whether in a party leader or 2024 nominee.
As a result, Judge Luttig tells me, he fears the US faces a period of "protracted democratic instability."

Doctor who treated Uvalde victims recalls "two children whose bodies had been pulverized by bullets fired at them, decapitated, whose flesh had been [so] ripped apart, that the only clue as to their identities was the blood-spattered cartoon clothes still clinging to them."

1/14 How an ordinary Russian TV viewer (one of whom I currently am) sees it.
I learned about the monstrous events in Bucha yesterday morning from the news that Russia was convening the UN Security Council in connection with the massacre by Ukrainian Nazis in Bucha.

Desperately sad story from just outside Kyiv, about a woman called Iryna whose son was killed by Russian soldiers. We were the first outsiders she'd seen since the Russians left her village on Friday. Shot and edited by @leedurant. Produced by @producerkathy

Photos of murdered civilians in Irpin and Bucha by Russian troops recall the mass killings by Soviet and Nazi regimes.
This is not a battlefield, it’s a crime scene.
Mass killings of Ukrainian civilians by #Russia are clear war crimes. 1/3
