U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin agrees with him that letting voters send in ballots by mail puts honest elections at risk.

“Vladimir Putin, smart guy, said you can’t have an honest election with mail-in voting,” Trump told Fox News Channel’s “Hannity” after a nearly three-hour meeting between the leaders in Alaska. “He said there’s not a country in the world that uses it now.”

    It might not be France, but you can still learn a lot from them. Stop with one day protests a la the Kings Day protests. Those don’t work. A protest with a deadline will just be waited out. If you want change, you stop when demands are met. If only 25% of the Kings day protestors went to DC and just sat there till change happened, things might have actually worked out. Spread over 2000+ locations and one day? Nothing will happen. Only maybe strengthen others in a shared goal. Sadly nobody marched to DC afterwards.

    Living paycheck to paycheck sucks, but if you’re not willing to commit and they know it. Why would they listen? It’s not going to improve like that. It’s clear the US gov doesn’t gives a rats ass about the wellbeing of the majority.

    It’s time for a salt march! Bernie Sanders maybe? Mamdani?
