Geno Veno has more courage than 99.999% of #MAGA men.
This is what patriotism looks like, and our forefathers would be proud, unlike what ICE is doing in our streets. #AbolishICE

the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?
Trump says a lot of deranged shit, but, per this Reuters article — and the threats of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minnesota this morning — he is very clearly exploring how to cancel the midterms.

Protesters clashed with federal agents for another night outside the Whipple Federal Building, which holds ICE detainees. Agents fired less-lethal munitions and deployed chemical irritants at the crowd.

Bit of a false alarm; crowd isn’t marching yet though they are assembled in the street currently. Making speeches still.
