This is what Republicans passed in the "big beautiful bill." They created the most funded group of Gestapo Nazis in the world, to serve as Republicans' and Trump's private army, with the goals of taking over blue cities and states and interfering with the 2026 elections.๐คฌ

Crime is so out of control in D.C. that BLOTUS called up the National Guard to be gardeners and janitors. I guess the real reason is that all the actual gardeners and janitors have been arrested and thrown in ICE detention centers? Talk about waste, fraud and abuse!

I don't think "bet it all on the midterms" is a better strategy now than "bet it all on 24" was in 21, but if we're doing it anyway, I'd like to see the authors of that strategy at least working right now on the question of "how do we protect and encourage minority voting if ICE is at the polls?"

I guess if you're in a major city in a blue state, you have to start thinking about how you're going to successfully vote with the actual military attempting to prevent you. Because that's why the military is being moved into cities right now. They're being pre-mobilized to prevent voting.
