Trump and RFK Jr. are right about paper ballots being important to election security. What they’re not saying? Nearly every county already uses them. bit.ly/4dUqTih

NEW: Cleta Mitchell’s “Election Integrity Network” was directly involved in pushing the upcoming Georgia state election board rule changes. The former Fulton Co. official who filed the draft rule literally admitted that she did so because the group asked her to.

A former state official is arguing that accepting bribes is protected under the First Amendment. While clearly wrong, this argument reflects how the Supreme Court's tolerance for corruption emboldens officials to enrich themselves at the public’s expense. brennancenter.org/our-work/analy…

You know you shouldn't open unknown electronic documents, but sometimes you really need to know what's in them. Use Dangerzone, a utility from Micah Lee 🫡, to convert the files to malware-free PDFs. dangerzone.rocks. It works, and you can trust it.

This was a big missed opportunity. As Jack Goldsmith & Oona Hathaway write, the new directive gives absolute weight to “security,” narrowly understood, and no weight at all to the First Amendment or broader democratic interests

The charging documents for the RT-linked couple and Doppelgänger groups are an absolute intelligence gold mine. Perfect example of an effective speaking indictment by U.S. Department of Justice, and a real service to security researchers who will be digging thru this stuff for years.

If I were exposed as an unwitting tool of Russian propaganda, and I really hadn’t let my immensely generous paymasters influence what I said, I’d make public all our emails to prove it. Of course, that would also prove my independent work looked exactly like Russian propaganda.

The new DOJ charging documents raise a curious question: DOJ charges two lower-level employees of a Russian front company, but despite providing chapter and verse about the complicity of the two "Founders" of that company, the Founders are not charged. My Suspicion (based on my
