Indivisible Cortland County is part of National Indivisible's ActBlue program, allowing us to accept donations under the national group’s non-profit status. For the month of August National Indivisible will match up to a total of $300 we receive in donations. So, we raise $300, we get $600! SWEET!

Called his ads political satire, not unlike late-night comics. Tell that to Colbert you ahole. This guy advocated for his own masked "brown shirts" to roam the streets of LI! But he was also the 1st in the country to ban masks in public. Is it any wonder he uses AI? abc7ny.com/post/nassau-...

One office in America holds the eraser for those 34 felony convictions: the Governor of New York. Trump knows it. Blakeman knows it. Here's the question every reporter in this state should be asking the man Trump anointed "from the very beginning": Candidate Blakeman, would you pardon Donald Trump?

Republican candidate for New York governor Bruce Blakeman wants to "replicate what we did in Nassau County" statewide. Nassau County property taxes averaged $14,872 in 2019 - 4x the national average. Even higher today. Be careful what you wish for, New York. westernnypolitics.com/westernnypol...

Not the early hour nor a deluge nor piss-poor air quality could keep 55 stalwart souls from coming to ICC’s Voter Registration Rally this morning. Thanks to all, especially our Singing Resistance Cortland and unexpected guests from the Supreme Court and the Raging Grannies from Ithaca! What a hoot!

Only eligible American citizens should vote in American elections, and the public must have confidence that our elections are secure. Two former elected officials — both Republicans — argue that 47's SAVE Act is a mistake for these very reasons.

We’re Conservative Republicans. The SAVE Act Is a Mistake

As Trump continues to push his SAVE Act, Republican leaders warn that the bill does not solve a real problem—and threatens to create new ones.
