Hm, I wonder how America's doing today.
The Midterms Coup Attempt Has Already Begun
Vigilantes, saboteurs, suppression... It’s already happening now, 12 days before Election Day, in plain sight.
...some of the country’s most suppressive new voting laws, all in the name of “election integrity.” Now early-voting Georgians, many of them Black, are facing repeated, unlimited challenges to their status as they try to cast ballots. Emboldened Republicans are mounting the challenges by the thousands, and it’s all legal.
In Pennsylvania, where counting rules make it likely that close races won’t be called on election night, Trump himself is reportedly gearing up to rush in, cry fraud, and claim victory for his chosen candidates in an election where he’s not on the ballot. Trump, of course, is pursuing the strategy for himself, viewing the challenges as a “dress rehearsal for 2024,” according to one source
Just last week, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said on the Breaking the Vote show that threats against her are so bad in her reelection campaign that she fears she won’t be able to stay in the state if she loses on Nov. 8.
I'm sure this is all just a bit of locker room voter intimidation, nothing really seriou...
Report Details ‘Extremist’ GOP Plot to Nationalize Voter Suppression
According to the report, "some of the most egregious bills introduced by congressional Republicans so far include legislation" that would:
Eliminate the National Voter Registration Act (aka the "motor-voter" law);
Prohibit states from counting a ballot cast in a federal election if it is received by the state after the date of the election, regardless if the ballot was completed and mailed by Election Day;
Prohibit states from using automatic voter registration systems;
Prohibit states from providing absentee ballots to many voters;
Restrict the use of drop boxes for absentee ballots;
Block many Americans from no-excuse absentee voting;
Prevent most individuals from voting at a polling place during an early voting period;
Significantly curtail the Election Assistance Commission’s (EAC) ability to provide investments to states to help run safe and secure elections; and
Relitigate the 2020 presidential election by establishing a commission to investigate the results of an election that Trump's own appointees at the Department of Homeland Security declared was the "most secure in American history."
"Instead of silencing voters on a state-by-state basis, members of Congress introducing these anti-voter bills may try to disenfranchise certain voters in one fell swoop,"
Well okay but like, this is just hyperventilating over proposed legislation, nothing's actually happening ye...
Paul Pelosi Is Undergoing Brain Surgery After Being Attacked with Hammer in His Home: Report | According to U.S. Capitol Police, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was in Washington, D.C. with Her Protective Detail at the Time of the Attack, Which Occurred at the Couple's San Francisco Home
...after an intruder broke into the couple's San Francisco home early Friday morning, reportedly in search of the House speaker.
Nancy Pelosi's Husband Paul 'Violently Assaulted' with Hammer in His San Francisco Home Overnight: Reports
Armed with a hammer, they were unable to locate her — so they instead violently attacked Paul, 82, who was in the residence.
CNN correspondent Jamie Gangel reports that the intruder "confronted the speaker's husband" and shouted, "Where is Nancy, where is Nancy?" Sources told Gangel that the assailant also tried to tie Paul up to await Nancy's return.
>_>
I mean, just one random act of stochastic politically motivated home invasion and deadly assault against the spouse of the head of a major branch of government, this isn't indicative of any organized movement or anythi...
Mike Pence says the Constitution doesn’t guarantee Americans “freedom from religion” — He said that “the American founders” never thought that religion shouldn’t be forced on people in schools, workplaces, and communities.
Pence’s views on the establishment of a national religion could be of national importance in a few years. He has suggested that he’s considering a 2024 presidential run and, as he noted in the interview with Kudlow, the president can appoint judges who can rule against freedom from religion.
<_<
I'm sure that won't actually happen, it's just leftist fear mongering taking the words of the guy who was recently one bad cheeseburger away from becoming most powerful man on Earth 100% accurately in context. I can't see how there'd be support for anything that radica...
Michigan GOP candidate Tudor Dixon wants a new book ban: No divorced characters
...idea that reflects the real Republican plan: Education is about social control, not learning
She has described working women as having "lonely lives," declared a 14-year-old incest victim to be a "perfect" candidate for forced childbirth
O_>
But, like, this is just campaign bloviating and sops to religious voting blocs to turn out and vote, it doesn't mean anything. It's not like the educational establishment is going to really do anything to...
Police look on as Proud Boys assault students, media at Pennsylvania State University
In a statement Tuesday, Penn State President Neeli Bendapudi blamed both the students and the fascists for the violence that led to the cancellation of the event. Bendapudi disingenuously wrote that it was “unclear which individuals onsite ... resorted to physical confrontation” and used “pepper spray against others in the crowd, including against police officers.”
She continued: “Tonight, Stein and McInnes will celebrate a victory for being canceled, when in actuality, they contributed to the very violence that compromised their ability to speak. Tonight, counter-protestors also will celebrate a victory that they forced the University to cancel this event, when in actuality they have furthered the visibility of the very cause they oppose.”
Yeah, but okay, I mean...sometimes a university president is fully justified in "both sides"ing self-described fascists from off-campus assaulting their students in an organized attack while their paid police escort ignores the whole thing then helps the Proud Boys leader safely exit the rear of the premises and brag about it online. It's all perfectly...
...you know what? Fuck it.
PAAAAAANNIIICCCCC!!!!!!
I feel like for all the constant talk about it, people in the US
still don't really believe it's happening. That this is just a more amped up version of the usual American melodrama. But you seem to have devolved into one of those dysfunctional corrupt regimes that usually only get five "naughty-naughty, so tragic" paragraphs in the newspaper. You have already gone full Americaragua and this dumb second-tier election is still a week away.
