I think that’s a great idea! Because you know Felon47 is going to post his ICE goons at polling places & drop boxes for ballots to discourage voters of color. Our last election I gathered ballots from my neighbors who are Vietnamese & Hispanic to drop in in the drop box near our library.

Can governors legally call up their own state's national guard to protect polling places on election day?

They need to keep ICE and the Feds far away from people voting.

Really serious? Excuse me Mikey, but I see a man beating a woman as serious. Anybody else think it’s serious! A show of hands please ✋🏻

Q: This has been reported for a while. Cory Mills was accused of beating a girlfriend in his DC apt. Are you concerned about these allegations?

JOHNSON: You have to ask Rep. Mills about that. He's been a faithful colleague. I don't know the details. Let's talk about things that are really serious

That SCOTUS would do this was a known known. It is probably too late now. What have Democrats been waiting for?

I mean, there are a lot of scenarios where the Dems could prevail, but they all involve calamitous events.

“Not going to be great” is quite the understatement by Fox here.

Tweet by FactPost (@factpostnews) reading: “Fox: The tariffs, 10% for lumber, 25% for cabinets, vanities, upholstered furniture. On January 1st, the tariff for cabinets and vanities increase to 50%, all the rest of the furniture to 30%. The cost of building materials has increased 34%. There is a concern that this is not going to be great for the home buying industry.” Below is a Fox Business screenshot showing a reporter in a lumber workshop with the headline “New tariffs on furniture & lumber take effect.”

Could be he will learn that LIES have consequences.
Nearly 250 years ago, those that came before us declared “NO KINGS”.

WE THE PEOPLE rise on October 18, 2025 once again declare “NO KINGS”
And we are not standing alone.

No Kings

As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

Unfortunately, I think such a moment in the United States will take either 1. Time (a decade or more) or 2. A calamitous event.

IDK the answer to this, and it worries me.

Will Bunch @willbunch.bsky.social · 22h

Curious...what would be the South Korea, 1 million people surround the Capitol moment for U.S.?

1) SCOTUS strikes down Voting Rights Act
2) Trump invokes Insurrection Act ahead of election, troops at blue polling places
3) A modern Kent State-style shooting
4) Something else
5) Absolutely nothing

Elections are won at local and state level. The news from the last several years where Republicans have power is that they are putting their own people into election positions. Plus the judges who will be deciding disputes. As the seeming hero of anti-democratic Republicans Josef Stalin believed:

Really bad news for America. Sealing a pressure cooker leads to explosions. #SCOTUS might spark a civil war if they rule as REPUBLICANS, RATHER THAN AS LAW ABIDING JUDGES.

This is not going to be resolved in a year or two. This is going to be a long, protracted, battle. Those of us who are in their senior years may not live to see the end of it.
