Plus it would attract the cryptocurrency crowd that Spoutible has been courting. It’s win-win

We all know Putin wants to kill American democracy. Now we're seeing Dems (not a lot but some) who are switching parties--choosing fascism. Perhaps they see it as an advantageous self-serving move but I wonder about Kompromat. We shouldn't discount it.

Sometime this year, SCOTUS will rule on 2 cases that could further undermine voting rights in this country. To understand what is at stake and why you should be paying attention to the efforts of marceelias and Democracy Docket, here's a profile of him I wrote last year.

Top Super Bowl 2023 super commercial lists will certainly include the Jesus loving "He Gets Us" ads. But who paid for those very Christian spots?
