When the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact has enough states to reach 270 electoral votes — enough electoral votes to elect the president — states in the compact will vote as a bloc.

Interstate voting compact takes another step toward reality

"...The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact took another step toward reality last week when the Minnesota Legislature approved an omnibus election bill.

 With Gov. Tim Walz’s signature, Minnesota would pledge its 10 electoral votes to the interstate compact.

Right now, the compact has 195 of the 270 electoral votes needed to take effect. 

• If Minnesota joins on, it will have 205 out of 270. 
• If Michigan joins on, it will have 220 out of 270...

Elections matter!

NAACP issues travel warning in Florida: the state ‘has become hostile to Black Americans’ - by Julia Shapero - © Provided by The Hill

"The NAACP issued a formal travel advisory for Florida on Saturday, saying the state has become “hostile to Black Americans” under Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R) leadership.

• “On a seeming quest to silence African-American voices, the Governor and the State of Florida have shown that African Americans are not welcome in the State of Florida,” the travel advisory reads.
• “Due to this sustained, blatant, relentless and systemic attack on democracy and civil rights, the NAACP hereby issues a travel advisory to African Americans, and other people of color regarding the hostility towards African Americans in Florida,” the group added.
• The advisory points to several of DeSantis’s controversial policies, including legislation he signed on Monday to prohibit colleges from spending public funds on diversity, equity and inclusion efforts...

Harris, 35% "favorable?!!---It sure looks like Michelle Obama is being pressured to run for president, forcing Biden out of the 2024 race - American Thinker

It sure looks like Michelle Obama is being pressured to run for president, forcing Biden out of the 2024 race - American Thinker - By Thomas Lifson

"It's obvious to anyone in the Democrat camp not totally delusional that Joe Biden's declining mental faculties make him almost impossible to re-elect in 2024.  Douglas Schoen and Andrew Stein are two Democrats who have a good grasp of reality, and so they are putting out a signal in the Wall Street Journal — which is read by virtually every media editor in the country — that it is time to push Michelle Obama into running. 

If Mr. Biden can't run for re-election, his natural successor is Vice President Kamala Harris. But Ms. Harris is even less popular than the president: Only 35% of registered voters have a favorable opinion of her compared with 41% for Mr. Biden...

Court Document: FBI Misused Surveillance Powers Nearly 300K Times

Court Document: FBI Misused Surveillance Powers Nearly 300K Times: 

The FBI misused its powerful digital surveillance powers nearly 300,000 times between 2020 and early 2021, including against January 6 protesters, according to a newly unsealed court document. The powers, authorized by Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), allows FBI agents to search a database of electronic communications and other information, meant to look for foreign intelligence or terrorist activity.

Betrayed! Deservedly so.

 

What The Hell Is Wrong With These People?

What The Hell Is Wrong With These People? - Derek Hunter

• Imagine literally being upset about your state government preventing you from physically removing the genitals from your minor child...
• Then there are the wealthy white liberals who, as if it were a sexual fetish of theirs, demand they and their children, and by extension everyone’s children, be indoctrinated into the idea that they are responsible for things done by people who aren’t them that happened long before they were born. 

You really have to wonder what the hell is wrong with these people.
But we aren’t dealing with people who want to keep their fetishes to themselves, we’re dealing with morons and narcissists who demand everyone participate in their manias, and that we be grateful for it...

"The findings are mind-blowing.

• The average age when they announced they were transgender was 15.2 years of age...
• 62.5% of the children had a diagnosis of at least one mental health disorder or neurodevelopmental disorder (such as autism) before the onset of gender dysphoria. Telling.
• 36.8% of the children had friend groups in which the majority had identified as transgender. This one is important. Nearly 40% of these people had A MAJORITY OF THEIR FRIENDS as transgender. So, yes, you can be groomed into it.
• 47.2% of the children had a decline in mental health AFTER expressing gender dypshoria. They always tell you that changing genders will make you happier, but that finding contradicts that.
• 57.3% had a decline in parent–child relationship after expressing gender dysphoria. This one makes sense. The children isolate from their parents because they get closer to their groomers at school, groomer groups online, etc.
