Republicans screamed bloody murder that Democrats trying to ban gerrymandering and set minimum standards for voting access nationwide was infringing on state sovereignty despite the constitution explicitly giving Congress the power to regulate elections.
The president has none. This is lawlessness

More from the party of federalism: "the states are merely an agent for the federal government in counting and tabulating the votes. They must do what the federal government, as represented by the president of the United States, tells them, for the good of the country, to do."

Again, the question is not “will there be elections.” It is “Will the far right authoritarian party accept the results of elections?”
In 2000, SCOTUS stole the election
In 2021, there was an insurrection to steal the election, & a majority of GOP Reps voted to steal the election
In, 2027/29…? 🤷♂️

Yes, there will be elections. Yes, they will be “free and fair” sort of, aside from the military mobilization & mass voter suppression which won’t really qualify them as such. That’s not the question. The question is what comes after. Jan 6 was a dry run. We failed the test. We will see next time.
Few of the 2025 elections were federal & none affected his control of a single institution of federal power. The elections will happen. They will be sort-of-free-and-fair, like all 🇺🇸 elections given gerrymandering & voter suppression. The questions all come after Election Day re: accepting losing.

This was a major initiative from the Biden White House, based in the idea of getting together all the countries with a stake in this crisis. They pressured China to stop precursor chemicals, hit hard at the capital funding for production in Mexico, and funded Narcan in the U.S. It apparently worked.
China's fentanyl crackdown led to a stunning drop in U.S. overdoses, research says
