It’s important for these Democratic senators to hear from their constituents right now. Email your senators and tell them to protect our elections by rejecting the GOP’s voter suppression bill.”

Indivisible GuideTell Your Senator(s) to Vote NO on the Silencing Americans ActRepublicans are once again pushing what we’re calling the “Silencing Americans Act,” a dangerous bill that would create unnecessary obstacles for millions of eligible Americans trying to register to vote. The House passed it last session, but it never made it to the Senate—now they’re bringing it back in an attempt to restrict access to the ballot. The Silencing Americans Act (H.R. 22 and S. 128) would require every voter to show proof of citizenship, like a passport or original birth certificate, when registering to vote in federal elections. That might sound simple, but the reality is that millions of eligible voters don’t have these documents readily available. Because the bill would require showing this proof in person, it would eliminate online and mail-in voter registration. This bill wouldn’t improve election security—it would just make it significantly harder for everyday Americans to vote. It has already passed the House and if it passes the Senate, the Silencing Americans Act would disproportionately impact: Married women who have changed their last names, many of whom don’t have birth certificates matching their legal name Trans and nonbinary people who’ve changed their names to reflect their gender identity Naturalized citizens who could face additional barriers and intimidation Military members, tribal citizens, and working-class Americans, who may not have easy access to these documents And others! We’ve seen the damage of similar laws in states like Kansas and Arizona, where thousands of eligible voters were blocked from registering. Americans without citizenship status are already barred from voting in federal elections, and states have secure systems in place to verify voter eligibility—this bill is unnecessary. Fill out the form with your information (feel free to add an optional additional comment, if you like), and we'll make sure your email is delivered to your senator(s). The email to your senators:

They won't see this. Maybe some constituents will.

You can watch the sentencing of #TinaPeters on #YouTube.

It's well worth watching how freaking entitled #Peters acts. She doesn't seem capable of understanding that she is NOT above the #law. And how decisively the #judge describes her lack of remorse, likelihood of committing crimes again, and why he's giving her close to the maximum penalty, 9 years in #prison.

Sometimes I sadly remember when NZ had an intelligent, empathetic and dedicated Prime Minister. As a nation we would look out from our small isolated archipelago in the South Pacific at the farcical leaders of the US and UK, Trump and Boris while smugly feeling confident that we would never allow ourselves to be governed by such imbeciles… WTF happened #NewZealand?

MAGA Election Official Immediately Spews Conspiracies After Conviction

Hours after being convicted of
🌟tampering with voting machines in Colorado in the name of Donald Trump,
former Mesa County clerk #Tina #Peters griped that the outcome was a
“sad day for our nation and the world”
while continuing to spout false election-related conspiracy theories about
🌟“vote-flipping software that is basically in Serbia.”

Peters was found
💥guilty Monday on seven of ten charges
after she granted unauthorized individuals access to county voting machines in order to transfer data to Trump allies.

Peters faces up to 22 years in prison.

Later in the day, Peters responded to her newfound status as a felon by posting Bible quotes and spreading baseless claims about election fraud.

I’m taking a day off to grieve for the people that have been hurt by Dominion brand voting systems and the Secretary of State’s attorneys actions to steal their vote and their voice.

I will continue to fight until the Truth is revealed that was not allowed to be brought during this trial,” she wrote on X.

The Daily Beast · MAGA Election Official Immediately Spews Conspiracies After ConvictionBy William Vaillancourt

Twelve Mesa County jurors found #Tina #Peters guilty of four felonies on Monday after a lengthy criminal trial, marking yet another conviction tied to 🔸post-2020 election conspiracy theories. 🔸

Peters faced a total of ♦️10 criminal charges♦️ related to her role in helping a man gain 💥unauthorized access to voting equipment💥 during a secure software update in May 2021.

The county’s voting machine’s passwords and copies of its hard drive were later posted online by people trying to undermine the validity of the election system.

Peters was found guilty of three counts of attempting to influence a public servant and one count of conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation.
She was also convicted of first-degree official misconduct, violation of duty and failure to comply with an order from the Secretary of State, all misdemeanors.
The jury acquitted Peters on three counts — criminal impersonation, conspiracy to commit criminal impersonation and identity theft.

Some of the facts in the case have never been disputed.

Peters admits that in May 2021, she used the identity of a Fruita man named Gerald Wood to give a different man
— Conan Hayes, a self-described data expert from California
— access to county voting equipment,
both to copy its hard drive and a few days later to attend a secure update of the machine’s software.

Hayes is a retired surfer with ties to "My Pillow Guy" Lindell and his campaign of spreading falsehoods about the country’s election system.

#StewPeters is one of the biggest #scumbags in #rightwing media (and that's saying a lot). His show is based on telling #Christians they are under attack, and attacking and defaming members of the LGBTQ community. That's literally all he does. I only wish someone would challenge #Peters to a fight on his livestream. I really want to see a #gay dude beat the shit out of him on his own show. But Peters is a #coward, and would never accept.

#Peters is a truly ridiculous figure.
His rhetoric becomes more extreme and hysterical.
His mindset stuck in some long distant past.
He’s horribly belligerent to anyone who refuses to pay obeisance.
He avows policies and positions that harm and disadvantage Māori - born of what can only be some kind of internalised racism.
To compare co-governance to Nazism is ugly and absurd - and deeply insulting to both Māori and those who experienced the Holocaust.
