Mail in is compromised, ice will be at the polls, states may just stop counting altogether, everything is being gerrymanderred, the fix is already in. Hopefully, Americans get out and vote, but it's going to be difficult for them. I'm getting crazy messages from my family and friends down there.

The midterms won't be free and fair at this point. Maybe martial law is the only way Americans will finally wake up. Trump still has a solid 35-40% support. Humans don't really appreciate what they have until they lose it.

So much of what’s happening - not only in the U.S., but around the world - right now, comes down to men desperate to stay in power in order to stay out of prison.
It’s the increasing desperation that’s becoming more and more dangerous.

Rep. Walkinshaw leaving today’s ICE hearing: “All of this comes from Stephen Miller’s sick, twisted, deranged Great Replacement Theory.” He says when Dems have the majority they will subpoena Miller to testify: “If he doesn’t he will end up in prison for contempt.” @pabloreports.bsky.social

Why do you suppose after meeting with Trump officials, Alberta separatists quietly switched their referendum question from wanting Alberta to become a ”sovereign country” to becoming an ”independent state”?
Like the 51’st state? Like Puerto Rico with no elected representatives?
