The Washington Post reported that activists are working with the White House on an executive order to declare a “national emergency” over America’s elections and pave the way for a power grab.
“Pro-Trump activists who say they are in coordination with the White House are circulating a 17-page draft executive order that claims China interfered in the 2020 election as a basis to declare a national emergency that would unlock extraordinary presidential power over voting,” reported the Post‘s Isaac Arnsdorf. “President Donald Trump has repeatedly previewed a plan to mandate voter ID and ban mail ballots in November’s midterm elections, and the activists expect their draft will figure into Trump’s promised executive order on the issue.”
Peter Ticktin, a MAGA activist in favor of the executive order, told the Post that “we have a situation where the president is aware that there are foreign interests that are interfering in our election processes,” and that “the president has to be able to deal with it,” including by banning mail-in ballots and certain voting machines.
This does concern me frankly. Hopefully its all just his usual limpdick saber rattling. The problem is, if something like this does happen, at this point I don’t trust anybody to stop it. Democrats are too busy playing theater and bending the knee to their corporate overlords to oppose anything Trump does at this point past their usual finger wagging and “almost maybe going to send a sternly worded letter at some point” responses. And if the Supreme Court doesn’t give him the nod to do this he can just, you know, ignore them. Not like he’s faced consequences for that the past… ever.
I’m arming myself. Hope everyone else is.
they succeeded in 2024, with the help elon and the voting machines, DNC is pretty much complicit.
Pretending that Trump didn’t win the election is how you fail to ensure you win the next one, and doom the rest of the world to another MAGA administration.
The fact that Americans are STILL talking like there will be a real election to win is partly why we’re in this situation.
I swear y’all could be sent in chains to the remotest corner of Alaska in a prison camp and you’ll still be saying ‘man people are mad, he’s gonna lose the next election for sure!’
This wont be voted away. It wont be protested away. Its going to have to be fought and it will be unpleasant.
there was a discussion on a sub, about how AMERICANS dont care as long as you dangle something shiny infront them, EV cars, relatively high paying jobs, vacations, and for the right CULTURE wars, and they ignore all the stealing, backstabbing, complicity, that the gop and old guard DNC does behind thier back. thats why the “protests” if you want to call it that (from what im seeing)is very ineffective as far as making “someone scared” they arnt, one side is doing, and smaller segment is actually protesting while its largely ignored by the voters. if a group is willing to riot/fight back, of course you can say it will only encourage DUMP to escalate, the elites wont see a threat at all.
one of the big mistakes is having the “ELECTED dnc out here” giving passivity and not to act further, like how walz is trying to avoid confrontation at all cost, and now is seen as a total joke, likely being directed by AIPAC. there is a reason why only 1 side is protesting, because the GOP is only targeting heavy blue areas, as USual.
NEWSOMe isnt the saviour the moderate dnc wishes he to be, i thinks hes much more to the right than even biden. DNC/gop systematically trying to discredit ZOhRAN pretty much showed thier true colors.
