With everything our country is facing right now, Trump's continued obsession with interfering in elections is dangerous and cannot be ignored.
Trump knows his Administration is failing the American people, and he knows Republicans would lose if they had to compete in a fair election tomorrow.

The best defense is to realize he is going to use his full military powers to make sure he never has to leave office and cannot be prosecuted. A landslide will only make him triple down on the violence. The time to stop him & his cronies is now, not waiting till November
Ossoff: We would be naive not to expect dirty tricks. This man tried to steal the presidency when he lost it the first time. The best insurance against dirty tricks is landslide margins of victory.

Agents are arresting entire families with legal status and immediately shipping them off to Texas to deny them legal representation and avoid the federal courts in Minnesota.
