Democrats say the DOJ has plans to seize ballots. To defend itself in federal court, the DOJ sent second-year lawyer Devin Iorio, who filed the most remarkable non-response of a response I’ve ever seen. Here’s the whole story at @americandoom.bsky.social: www.american-doom.com/p/exclu-meet...

The software update that the SEB is demanding takes months — it cannot be done before the Midterms. They ignored this fact and have pushed through anyway, desperate to give Trump access to voting machines to pursue bogus lawsuits before, during and after Election Day.

Until now, a lot of Trump’s lies were hard for regular folks to parse — they don’t believe the “fake news,” think Trump was right because they love him, etc. But this is a lie that Trump can’t get away with. Gas and groceries cost what they cost, and no amount of lying can change that.

Just to state the obvious: the White House refusing to let reporters in today/right now is a direct violation of a *judicial order.* The executive branch ignoring an order from the courts is *the definition* of a constitutional crisis.

There is a recourse here, and it’s one that judges would like to avoid because it means direct conflict between the judicial and executive branches: the U.S. Marshals. They’re the ones who have jurisdiction over enforcing court orders.

Who will clean any of this up? 
At a church service in Chicago they had set up cardboard cutouts in the pews to represent the worshippers who would have attended mass if not for fear of being disappeared. Not far away I saw a laborer’s lunch had been left uneaten and spilled over onto the sidewalk outside of a home he must have just been working on. Laboring on. There’s a dumpster out front and a red white and blue flag themed porta-potty from a company called Patriot Portables. Three ladders still leaning up against the building. 

It looks like it would have been a pretty tasty lunch. Even tossed aside like that and wasted now. A smear of orange hot sauce on the cracked styrofoam container. Not yet taken away by the wind. Such a beautiful seeming neighborhood too. I imagine it’s a very nice place to live. They say that Chicago is still surprisingly affordable. 

It shows me home listings when I scroll now because I clicked on one or two at some point and so the computer believes that this is an integral datapoint that explains who I am. I just saw one hanging ten off a bluff that has been pummeled by eons of waves and so will not exist for much longer. Neither house nor bluff. Overlooking the water on Cape Cod. You could squeeze a couple of good years out of it still I thought. Until one awful night. I can’t afford it even now despite the implication but it’s a nice little nightmare to have. 

I thought of a friend who was recently diagnosed with a terrible albeit not yet terminal disease but maybe that’s a bad analogy. A beach house is worth so much more than a person. 

I don’t know how much longer it will sit there. Either the house or the guy’s lunch. Maybe everyone passing by assumes another worker is going to arrive soon to take care of it but it could be he’s already been disappeared himself.
