Tim Snyder: "If you want to rip the heart out of a democracy, you go after facts. That's what modern authoritarians do." Step 1: You lie. All the time.

States with gerrymanders are pulling a fast one. They’re “re-gerrymandering” and calling it “mid-cycle redistricting.” Nonsense. We call it what it is—an unprecedented escalation of the war on democracy & free & fair elections. We call it what it is—Absurd then. Absurd now. @lwvus.bsky.social
This class of people actually exists nowadays. They steal people and they are called “ICE”.
