Tiffany Lee, La Plata County's clerk, was initially skeptical of this mandate.

I saw this earlier this week and now I can dig into it a little. I have some ideas of my own and am curious if he arrives at some of the same conclusions.

GO ITALY
If you are still baffled how Trump was voted by so many Americans, let's remember how the late Silvio Berlusconi (elected three times as Prime Minister of Italy), thought about the Italian voters:
"the Italian public has the same mental development of a 12-years-old middle-schooler who doesn't even sit in the first row"

As with mafia and fascism, Italy was first.

Can public trust in #science survive a second battering?
After #US #election2024 in Nov, one Wall Street Journal headline declared "Science Lost America’s Trust.” Another publication called 2024 “the year of distrust in science.”
One thing that experts have noticed is that rather than distrusting specific types of #scientists, such as climate change researchers, conservatives have begun to lump scientists across specialties and have more distrust of scientists in general.

Inside the race to #archive the #US government’s websites
Amid takedowns of various government sites and databases, several organizations are working to preserve vital #climate, #health, and scientific data before it’s gone for good.

We Looked at 78 #Election #Deepfakes. #Political #Misinformation Is Not an #AI Problem
Analyzed every use of AI in #elections collected by WIRED AI Elections Project, which tracked uses of AI for creating political content during #election2024 worldwide.
We find (1) half of AI use isn’t deceptive, (2) deceptive content produced using AI is nevertheless cheap to replicate without AI, and (3) focusing on demand for misinformation rather than supply is much more effective

A Republican judge is trying to overturn his election loss by challenging more than 60,000 ballots. These are some of those voters’ stories.
@randahl remember all the idiots not voting against this scum, because they blamed Biden for "condoning a genocide"?
