Question for all state leaders: when will state leaders ask their state police to start arresting ICE Agents for violating state laws?? State laws have priority over Federal, or have we forgotten the 10th Amendment & 2nd Amendment?

His exact words should speak volumes to Miller's & Project 2025's plans for our next election. When will Americans realize that we can't operate within rules that no longer exist for this Party? There will be no punishment in 3 yrs bc they will still be in power. Wake up America!

Still a king & growing stronger. Can't effectively protest without a Democracy. Too late. America voted this felon, this pedophile, this power-hungry monster into office with cheers.

Presidents don’t seek revenge when people disagree with them; dictators do. Our country was founded under the promise that it would remain a king-free space. Let’s keep that promise.

DOJ prosecutors in Virginia under Erik Seibert didn't believe they gathered enough evidence to charge Letitia James. So Trump pressured Seibert to resign and replaced him with a loyalist (and former…

Adelita Grijalva would be the final vote on releasing the Epstein files, but House Speaker Mike Johnson is refusing to swear her in. It’s been weeks since she won her election, and years of demanding the release of the Epstein files.

Swear Rep. Grijalva in and stop the cover-up!

Two big GOP activists from Oregon were in DC last month for meetings with Trump admin officials. On their podcast they talk about a plan they discussed to nullify the results of Oregon's 2026 federal elections. Pass federal voter ID law, then refuse to seat OR delegation because OR didn't comply.

Also, we proposed a idea how to do a end run on vote by mail. Concept is based on what Trump proposed. When you vote, you check everyone's citizenship as well as voter ID.
In a vote by mail state, you might be able to check citizenship during voter registration. You can send copies of your passport and your birth certificate in.
How in the world are you going to check our voters?
Voter ID, right? Vote by mail. So that creates a problem for Oregon.
But if federal government new requirement is to check both, and if Oregon can comply with the requirements, what would happen to our election result? I'm talking about the entire federal delegation.
For federal elections, we're talking about only federal elections.

So entire federal delegation, congressmen and senators could be challenged, could be unseated because you didn't follow federal requirements to elect them. So I said the trade-off is worth it. You know why?
Democrats control two Senate seats out of six congressional seats. We only control one. They control five.
You talk about trade-off, right?
