ONWARD! THE PEOPLE ARE ABOUT TO SPEAK. DEMOCRACY IN ACTION…

Election interference indeed… On Thursday, DOJ sent letters to elections officials in all 50 states suggesting, none too subtly, that they could be prosecuted if they didn’t preserve election records—which they’re already required to do. Friday, a federal judge in the Northern District of California ordered the DOJ to stop threatening election officials with criminal prosecution. She ordered the government to stop demanding state officials remove registered voters from the rolls or refuse to give them ballots. She directed the DOJ to report pending search warrant applications and grand jury subpoenas related to allegations that noncitizens were voting. Nothing like the chief law and order agency of these United States harassing voting citizens. And states’ election officials. To preserve a goal of one-party rule in America. At the direction of the president. No one can deny that. Meanwhile, CNN reported that Republicans have engaged in the same sort of “ballot stacking” exercises that the GOP and its DOJ are complaining about in Alaska. In 2024, a Republican activist paid not one but two additional Bob Fergusons to run against Washington’s Democratic AG in the gubernatorial primary. File it under “awful but lawful”, both parties do it, but the GOP is now shocked, shocked to find less than ethical behavior in politics. But if you really want to see dirty tricks this election cycle, look at Alabama. A mailer full of fake, AI-generated content was sent out targeting gubernatorial candidate Doug Jones. A mailer so bad that it included a warning that said…”This media has been manipulated by technical means and depicts speech or conduct that did not occur.” For real. People in Alabama were also receiving texts about a Pride rally Jones was supposedly involved with. But then reporting broke that, “The political text campaign last night promoting a nonexistent Doug Jones Pride rally appears to have been commissioned by a PAC with ties to Tommy Tuberville.” The GOP needs to unclutch their pearls on this topic. And please, by all means, continue to party on like the prez did on Halloween at Mar-a-Lago…”Look at all my rich members.” “They spent all day getting ready. Look at these guys. These are the biggest guys on Wall Street.” Quite a populist president you got there. Tick. Tock.
