Given that the feds are not only not going to help but are actively working toward rigging or even seizing control of this November’s election, it’s going to be up to us and the individual states to make sure our voices are heard and our votes are properly counted.
A state of emergency still doesn’t grant him any authority over state run elections. The states are fully aware of this and many are taking measures to prevent the involvement of unauthorized personnel through both legal challenge and physical security.
We are so far past all the “but he can’t do that!”, “that would be illegal” bullshit now. This is a fascist regime. The rule of law no longer applies.
I hope we all realize by now that Dump doesn’t give a shit whether something is legal or whether he has the legal authority to do it. He just does it. He doesn’t care if one day in the future some court will say, “Oh you shouldn’t have done that.” By the time courts can do anything, it’s far too late–the damage was already done. He has the support of the Congress which is controlled by repubs. The courts either go along with his corruption or he just ignores them. I read yesterday that they’re going to carve his name directly into the marble facade of the Kennedy Center, ignoring the courts. ICE and his concentration camps violate all kinds of laws every day and nothing is done to stop it. He’s put billions of our taxpayer dollars into his own and his cronies personal pockets.
So can we please stop with the “don’t worry, he doesn’t have the authority to do that” stuff?
The damn Trump coins are a symbol of blatantly breaking the law without consequence
So many examples of getting away with crimes I can’t begin to keep track of it all. I hope someone is keeping track of all the crimes, and all and broken things that will need to be fixed. Just in case we ever get a chance to.
Someone really ought to compile a list. I tried to find one online. Sites like ballotpedia have lists of crimes he’s been charged with but I don’t know if anyone has a comprehensive list of everything he SHOULD be charged with
