Trump keeps lying by saying that “We’re the only country in the world that has mail-in ballots,” even though 34 countries & territories allow mail-in voting.
Trump will never accept defeat in the House or Senate & he'll blame his loss on phony mail-in-ballot fraud & SCOTUS will back his lie.

Disgusting
ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Facts:
The federal government has no authority over elections.
States certify their own elections.
Mail in voting is still legal.
Any chance to Election Clause of the Constitution requires 2/3 of both House and Senate and 3/4 of States to amend the Constitution....that ain't happening.
