🙅‍♂️Do not wait until Nov. 3!🙅‍♂️

In most states, Nov. 3 isn’t really Election Day. It’s just the last day to vote. You should not wait until the last day to do something this important.

A lot of you can vote in September. Almost all of you can vote in October. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL NOVEMBER. slate.com/news-and-polit…
Worried about coronavirus but fearful of USPS slowdowns?

Most states let you 💁‍♂️fill out your absentee ballot at home then drop it off at multiple locations.💁‍♂️

We tell you exactly how to do it—from requesting your ballot to confirming that it’s counted. slate.com/news-and-polit…
Plan to mail back your absentee ballot? We tell you how to:

•Make sure you follow sneaky rules that trip up voters

At this moment, conservative media figures are crafting a narrative that black people attempting to disarm a white vigilante who was (1) illegally brandishing an assault weapon after (2) shooting someone in the head *deserved to get shot.*

It is racist and it is sickening.
We saw the usual suspects begin developing this narrative yesterday by framing Kyle Rittenhouse’s victims as bloodthirsty assailants rather than rightly frightened civilians trying to stop him from murdering more people with an assault weapon. Now it’s their party line. Vile.
By this morning, the narrative began firming up: The men trying to disarm Rittenhouse—who crossed state lines with an assault weapon he possessed illegally, then shot someone in the head—were actually just “attacking him,” and Rittenhouse had a right to shoot them, too.

Federal judge blocks the Trump administration’s attempt to strip transgender protections from Obamacare, explaining (correctly) that SCOTUS’ Bostock decision means “sex discrimination” encompasses anti-trans discrimination. …d-requests.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/123116892418.p… h/t @sarahposner Image
The Trump administration rushed out its anti-trans ACA rule just before Bostock came down, assuring us that SCOTUS would agree with its interpretation of sex discrimination.

“Its confidence was misplaced,” the court notes. …d-requests.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/123116892418.p… Image
Wrote this when Bostock came down on June 15, feeling good about it today 😎slate.com/news-and-polit… Image

I wrote about the white supremacists at Claremont who cooked up the objectively false claim behind the Kamala Harris birther lie: slate.com/news-and-polit… @Slate
White supremacists have a long history of challenging Black lawmakers' citizenship. Today's racists draw from this sordid tradition, and we must refuse to play along by pretending there is anything to debate here. slate.com/news-and-polit… Image
And yes, I’m really fucking angry that the Federalist Society continues to invite Claremont’s glorified klansmen to “debate” the citizenship of 18 million children born in the U.S. to immigrant parents. THERE IS NOTHING TO FUCKING DEBATE. THERE ARE NOT TWO SIDES HERE.
