Paper pusher and history ender. American szlachta abolitionist. Universal homogeneous state respecter.

Deception is a state of mind and the mind of the state.
American! Szlachta!
similarly with profiles of “rural white working class” (guy living in exurban sprawl who owns multiple car dealerships—but he happens to not have a four-year degree so…)

it’s like they got a 500 page book on how to consolidate a regime and they opened it at page 325

ICE is rotten to the core. It must be abolished and replaced with a limited purpose agency.
I won’t support additional funding for ICE unless we put guardrails in place to make sure ICE is better trained and actually focused on making our communities safer.

I mean if the incumbent Congress refuses to leave, it is illegally occupying the Capitol. The legal Congress would be convene at some other location.
Sure, but it's all Calvinball.

They could just say, we're not leaving.

Who's going to stop them?
one thing that has always confused me about these hypos where the House refuses to recognize Dem winners—the House isn't a continuing body, and it wouldn't be the current House that would be seating anyone. it's the incoming House. www.vox.com/politics/478...

right ICE right now is having a hard enough time maintaining the current tempo of operations with most of their efforts focused on the 46th largest city in the country

so you see where this presents problems if they try to block election enforcement at multiple cities nationwide
America doesn’t “work” anymore, as defined by the Constitution and the legal system we have relied on. Imagine a president who would send ICE to monitor specific polling stations. They would do as good a job as they would rounding up criminal illegal immigrants.

that’s not how this works

that’s not how any of this works
What is wrong with you people?!? You don’t have to pull every ballot box to spoil an election. You could just focus on California, just on big cities, just on +D polling stations. There. It’s done. Election spoiled. Now what are you gonna do?
the most reasonable case is to believe that a) the administration has every desire to rig the election and b) it does not have the ability to do so on sufficient scale.

are there races where I do think rigging is probable? yes, absolutely. but rigging 51 different election systems is hard

somehow, Maurice Duplessis returned.
sentiment started under Trudeau Sr as a result of the National Energy Program but it only got like this after the 2020s

(Quebec still has separatists. They're currently leading the polls and promising indy ref 3 now. They are anti-woke and pro-USA now.)
How long has this been a thing? I always heard Quebec were the separatists

and in this case the remedy is for the 120th Congress to convene at the Gaylord at National Harbor or something like that
The 119th Congress Constitutionally ceases to exist at 11:59 AM on January 3rd 2027

Whatever else happens from noon on, the 20th Amendment is explicitly clear on that fact. Even if the 120th Congress is not seated/whatever, the 119th Congress no longer exists ahd has no force of law

if Biden had said this it would be a nonstop media cycle

but since it’s Trump we need to instead do diner safaris to racism township, Pennsylvania to talk about how this is smart politics because it appeals to the forgotten man
Trump: “The first thing China will do is terminate ALL Ice Hockey being played in Canada, and permanently eliminate The Stanley Cup.”

I also could see where Abbott would be dumb enough to try to steal the senate race if it’s close (like sub 5,000 votes)
February 9, 2026 at 10:15 PM
the premise also implies that the military would unquestioning follow an order to insert itself into a civilian political process it and I am not entirely convinced of that

are there races where I do think rigging is probable? yes, absolutely. but rigging 51 different election systems is hard
“orders the military to seize ballot boxes” is even more load-bearing; there are more than 116,000 polling locations in the united states, more ballot drop offs, and two states are mail-first, that’s an enormous logistical effort
This would be terrifying if control was actually going to come down to a small number of closer races. But it’s not, and nobody frothing into a panic over it will internalize that load bearing part of the speculation.

Remain calm.

The Terrific President endures.

JFK Jr. Lives.

The Great American Republic shall endure.

There is much to be done.
The White House just sent a "Don't Panic" email. That'll do it
