The legacy media keeps getting this wrong. Trump didn't say "nationalize the election."
He said We should take over the VOTING in at least many—15 places.' The Republicans ought to nationalize the VOTING."
There is a big difference.

Trump 2.0 is less "drain the swamp" and more "release the raccoons."

Will Fox be updating their story on this and giving it the same amount of airtime as they did initial arrest?

To state the obvious that somehow more & more needs to be stated…
The Regime gets ZERO credit for now removing their thugs from Minneapolis after killing Renee Good & Alex Pretti.
These are *2* out of the 3 homicides in the city this year.
Yeah, they made it safer. F THEM.

Warnock on the arrest of Don Lemon: It’s chilling, and I think that is the intent. They intend to send chills down the backs of journalists. The authoritarian march is happening in real time, and it’s way past the time to wake up.

This Epstein drop is HUGE and utterly disgusting. I don’t see how this man is allowed to remain in office. Where are the evangelical leaders, the soccer moms, the folks stocking up on eggs, the farmers, the small business owners.

MINNESOTA — Mom goes outside to warm up her car, ICE grabs her: "Please, my car kids are all alone in the house!”
So nothing has changed and Homan was just to put a new face on the cruelty, got it

Chris Murphy: "This is really scary because what Bovino essentially told you is that if you just happen to be present when they are undertaking an operation, if you pull out your phone to record it, the use of force against you is justified. That is not true, it's not what the law says."

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.
The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.
There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.
This is my favorite guide.

The Trump regime is firing people for following the law and pardoning and promoting people who break the law. Exactly what you'd expect from a convicted felon bent on domination. We know where this is going.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.
