They're gonna live stream it. Livestream it. Livestream. They're talking about TrumpTV. They're trying to "legitimize" TrumpTV. Behind every monstrous deed is another fucking grift.

Jack Smith: Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation. If asked to prosecute a former president today based on the same facts, I would do so regardless of whether that president was a Republican or a Democrat.

NEW: U.S. diesel prices have hit an ALL-TIME HIGH of $5.97/gallon. Remember: higher diesel prices mean higher delivery and heating costs. Your energy bill, your groceries, packages at your door— all of it will cost more. Donald Trump’s war with Iran did this.

Don't forget: POTUS just offered $1.3T in bribes that he is constitutionally not able to offer, since Congress controls the purse. This would exacerbate our debt, lead to steep inflation, and will ultimately be just another empty promise.

The system was intentionally designed to fail, and USPS purposefully delayed finalization of the rule to prevent challenges by courts until after the election.

The DOJ + USPS intentionally colluding to disenfranchise up to 33% of US Voters (the % that voted by mail in 2024 was ~33%) needs to be investigated by the new Congress ASAP once seated.

The DOJ's first argument - which SCOTUS agreed with - was that the rule hasn't been published. Now that it has, the DOJ argument is that the court doesn't have jurisdiction because the plaintiffs need to go through the Postal Regulatory Commission - which takes 90 days, putting it past the election.

The Trump administration wants sweeping new mail ballot restrictions to take effect before the midterms. But its own lawyer could not tell the judge Thursday whether the administration’s system is actually ready to launch — much to the judge’s frustration. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Attempting to restrict voting to a single day enables widespread disruptive tactics to succeed before courts have time to respond. Expand voting access.

No fucking shit buddy. This is what we were trying to tell you.
Milo Yiannopoulos: "I didn't really understand the physical reality of how institutionalized the brutality is in America. The manner in which they arrest you, they put you in manacles, everybody is arrested like an MS 13 gang member. 
It was physically degrading. It was frightening. I don't think I've ever been frightened like that before. I was weeping like an old woman for an hour. I wouldn't wish it on anyone."

"In other words, if there is just one ballot with an issue — like a name that doesn’t match up identically to the name states previously provided to USPS — out of a batch of 10,000, then USPS would refuse to mail all 10,000 of the ballots, not just the flagged one."

I assume what AP means is: "Lies about noncitizen voting are being used by Trump to attack elections his party is set to lose and to set up an authoritarian effort to overturn the results" If so, they should just say that.
