Feckless headless chickens in the comments.
Go vote! Haha oops sorry that’s not allowed now, go vote harder! There’s absolutely no other option!
The country you deserve. The government you deserve.
Even when so, the voter should have enough time to appeal before election day.
In court papers, Solicitor General D. John Sauer said that the district court’s ruling “threatens the integrity of upcoming elections” by preventing the government from responding to state requests to verify the citizenship of potential voters.
anyway:
Noncitizen voting is extremely rare. All states are required to conduct voter roll list maintenance under federal law, and states already have processes to identify any noncitizens who do accidentally make it onto the voter rolls.
There’s a provision in the law where they can’t do any mass purges within 90 days of an election. So this ruling is limited to “individualized queries” for the rest of the 2026 cycle. But you can expect it to be a much bigger deal in the 2028 cycle if it doesn’t get overturned.
(This is a situation where Congress has the power to change the law. Hint, hint.)
Because this administration has a history of following the law…
And it won’t be followed either way with this admin, and it will be too late as Justice moves at a snails pace…

Definitely something to end an article on instead of leading with it. 🙄
Why would Trump be purging voters? Is he in charge of state-run voter rolls now?
As the Trump administration encourages […]
Ah- he isn’t. Bullshit headline.
Yea you’re right only half the states are going to purge their voter rolls! I dont need to worry. Its just the shit hole states that will be doing it to save their republican incumbents.
Right, so call them out when they do it. It’s easy to name Trump so that he takes the fall (he’s not up for election) and let the others in the conspiracy- get off the hook. But it’s really those secretaries of state or election boards who would be to blame, not Trump when it actually happens.
So surprised the Supreme Court would allow this. /s
Let me guess: 6-3 vote? Edit: yup. Just read. 6-3.
Check and double check your voter registration.
And if you live in Texas, don’t rely on DPS to process your voter registration through the driver license system. File an application directly with your county registrar.
So States can suck it when it comes to election? /s
Datenbank, bitte.
Countdown to fascism: X-1
Of only Americans were paying attention to what’s happening in their country
- Where do you live?
- What do you want the Americans to do that isn’t a suicide mission?
- What are you doing to help the situation?
They live in the Netherlands which has its own far right problem but they’re too busy keyboard warring about the US on Lemmy.
Thats my favorite part about the US bad talk, its a great distraction from watching the rightwing take overs pop up in everyones backyard. Like its a global coordinated effort or something. Like maybe the US sliding into fascism is just the first step to the free world following.
It’s just what’s been done on a smaller scale in all those countries applied globally. Sow division and and create as much infighting as possible.
Most people have probably heard of divide and conquer, but I’m guessing most don’t know anything about narcissistic triangulation, which is what’s going on.
For bullet two, one of the best things you can do is show up to vote, and be loud if / when your rights are denied. Contact local news, tell the ACLU about your case, put it on Facebook + all social media, tell your friends at work, church, wherever about it. The legitimacy of election interference claims are much harder to deny if it doesn’t all come from the top.
Of only Americans could speak English.
Sum of us are
