Yeah, it would’ve been nice if the headline could have mentioned which states, thanks for quoting this

Also, it always bares repeating how mean-spirited, selfish, and shamelessly hypocritical the Republican party is -

Unlike the 2020 election, when Republicans opposed pandemic-related changes such as expanded mail-in voting, both parties are encouraging new rules to help people vote.

One possible reason for the GOP’s change of heart: In North Carolina — a swing state that’s particularly key to former President Trump’s pathway to victory — 8% of eligible voters are in counties impacted by Hurricane Helene.

Those include many voters in rural, Republican-leaning areas.

The Harris campaign forgot (again) how every single Republican is a scumbag and actually went out of their way to highlight Tillis’ statement calling out misinformation, which predictably blew up in their faces

I feel like the ultimate goal really should be getting people to a place where they’re not going to commit further crimes and harm their communities again, and I don’t think just trying to punish people into that is effective. More often than not punished people just sink further into their own misery and keep pushing out and hurting others.

That all being said, I do think the experience of helping a community like this could be a positive one that could actually improve people’s behavior in a lasting way. Minus the coercion and the life threatening conditions, I support volunteering opportunities for prison inmates.

Gives you an idea of how much they try to not spend any money at all on inmate care, those clothes are probably over fifty years old
