Our biggest mistake was not holding him accountable IMMEDIATELY after January 6, 2021.
Mitch buddy did this, GOP control of the Senate.
Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Kevin McCarthy, and the rest of the GOP!!!!
💯
I’m relieved we have you fighting for us. Thank you.
Crime, negligence, corruption and dishonesty has been normalized in the Trump age.
I have a 66,000 a year job, and I've been saving to get my passport. Smh.
Annul this presidency
Doesn’t he know that EO are not law. States all have their own election laws written into their constitutions.
👆👆👆👆
I do not see fair and free elections in our future. He will stay in power no matter what.
EO is not an isolated event. Its part of a multipronged strategy to reshape U.S. governance, weaken democracy, & consolidate long-term control. A darker truth: goal isn’t to win by majority, but make the majority irrelevant, engineer the results by controlling the rules & gatekeeping participants.
This is why drump needs to be neutralized as soon as possible.
Is there anyone who can order that fake executive out of the WH today!?
Republicans very quiet......
We must stop him. I believe in you.
Take away
Stupid man
Y'all awaken. Trump/MUSK & GOP are working together to destroy US Democracy & install an Authoritarian-Dictatorial Government controlling everyone & everything in the USA. Project 2025 is real & it's being effected now. Do you feel like a cow being herded towards the slaughter house? You should.
Yep, that’s a fact.
us cows will defeat the fat old clown. see you at the protest!
Nationalized Elections No more mail in ballots No more early voting Increase in the voting age No more same day registration Fewer voting locations New ID requirements (Passports?) Restrictions of Women using married name
This women’s married name crap is too outrageous to contemplate! When do we get to some uplifting for citizens of this country?
MORE VOTER SUPPRESSION: Watch now for; No more mail in ballots Increase in the voting age No more electronic voting No more early voting No more same day registration New voter ID requirements Fewer Polling locations NATIONALIZED ELECTIONS
Before the election, I saw posts that said: "vote for Democrats, and, if you're unhappy, vote them out in the next election; vote for Republicans and perhaps never vote again. This Executive Order is a step towards the cancellation of future elections.
Who says it won’t work? Who exactly is stopping him? This is the entire problem. He is ignoring the courts and there is no one willing or able to put his ass in cuffs or do anything, for that matter, to actually put a stop to this.
Rigging is his game.
Will it come down for SCOTUS to decide? When will he go after them?
Thank you.
So the US military needs to figure out what a "Domestic Enemy" is and what strategy to use to deal with IT. The Repugnacans created this situation and the DIMocrats let it happen. Are the White guys in the fancy uniforms up to the challenge now? How long before it is too late?
Bastard
It doesn't have to work. Vance already fantasizes nightly about tossing Electoral Vote certifications in 2029. It's how he gets ready for his daily couch time.
He is just an idiot.
It sure would be nice to have all Big Law fighting this from all sides, rather than some sitting on the sidelines. They'll regret not doing something about his democracy busting Executive Orders. If/when the Dems get back in power, they better have their shit together & start filing those lawsuits.
An EO can't do that. Unless America allows it.
FIGHT! They will not stop maneuvering the system on rigging voting systems, processes, information to keep power. Lawyers and judges are the firewall! They will continue to threaten until masses within each organization threatened stand up and say not here! FIGHT!
Be prepared! Be proactive!
What happened to "States Rights" ???
Thanks for all you do Marc!!
It’s certainly in the top five 5️⃣ scandals of the week 🤦🏻♀️😩🤬🤯
Yep that and he’s going bald
He needs to be jailed and fast.
You are a true hero!
Get that bustard!
Thank YOU for protecting us and standing up for democracy.
No surprise!
Seen enough to impeach yet?
Requiring Federal voters’ registration in the environment of reducing agency support means registration would not be completed in time to vote. This would hit Blue States hardest. Gross key to controlling the Vote!
bsky.app/profile/elec...
Sneaking it in during signalgate is so on brand for him
Tiniest hands.
Glad you're on it.
Voting rights MATTER!
@marcelias.bsky.social - I want you to know that YOUR PRESENCE is the only thing that is allowing me to sleep at all at this point. Thank you for being a true defender of our nation.
What makes you so sure it will not work? He’s literally giving 🖕🏻 to all other court orders, including the fact that innocent Americans are still in a concentration camp in El Salvador. Can you guarantee it will not work?
bsky.app/profile/af68...
we hope it won't work......but all of my hopes have been dumped on for the last deacde
Danger Will Robinson! ((🚨))
That might be true, but the Signals is easier for people to understand. We gotta flood the zone.
One wonders if SCOTUS Roberts and Alito are thinking to themselves that they have created a monster ?
Pretty sure they’re busy gutting the Voting Rights Act right now based on the cases they’re currently hearing, so I’m sure they’re totes fine with both the SAVE Act and Dumpster’s EO.
My guess is that they like the monster they created.
Well, I'm sure they were well paid.
Alito cherishes his monster creation, and while Roberts has taken part in some very harmful rulings, I'm still somehow hopeful he'll see the error of his ways and vote accordingly when the rubber really hits the road with a case involving Trump's all-encompassing powers.
Roberts is trying to save his legacy! His vote tells all
Get enough sleep and take your vitamins, Marc. Advice that I'm heeding for myself. There's a long slog ahead of us, so stay strong.
Kind makes one wonder if the leak was done on purpose to distract from this. They are that evil.
Thanks again, Marc! Keep swinging!
Anyone who is counting on ever voting again is delusional
Yeah, fuck off Donald. There's a lot of shit you may get away with, but you will never get away with this. The day you take away the peoples' right to free and fair elections is going to be a very, very bad day for you.
Part of Project 2025 is repealing 19th Amendment incrementally. Married women who took their husbands' last names had trouble proving citizenship in test case. J.D. et al say the male "head of household" should vote on behalf of "dependent" wives and kids citing the Bible and "a house divided."
Seems more ominous than the “SignalGate” events. Thank you for keeping your eye on the ball.
Maybe SignalGate was a distraction.
Not an intentional one, but a functional one. Haven't heard much about this EO or what Musk's minions are up to.
It’s posted here somewhere. Definitely worth a read. It’s a doozy. Seriously.
Exactly
Has the GOP Congress passed anything of value since taking office? Why even show up? Oh, have another hearing that won't accomplish anything... oh, please, do that.
Is the Trump administration a domestic enemy and a clear and present danger yet?
OK Marc, they’ve railroaded everything else including you so tell us how it’s not going to work? Everything is a lie to protect the guilty. That’s how big money works. That’s how corruption works. I have the answers that can turn the tables. youtu.be/9Gr8BhQw6UE?...
They all need to die
He knows that he and Elon are very unpopular.
If MAGA keeps it up, they may just get that civil war they have been desperately pushing for.
He's an election denier mainly because he doesn't like knowing that millions of people DON'T love him. Hurt fee-fees are behind most of what he does, and his evil toadies know that and use it for their purposes.
Article I, Section 4, Clause 1: The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators.
The executive has no constitutional role in federal elections except enforcement of the laws passed by Congress. Which was the whole point of establishing the Dept of Justice in the first place.
A lot of people never thought he'd win...plan for worse...hope for best
Thank you Elias Law Group for everything you do.
So many evil scandals in Trump”s administration.
It is very much against the constitution. cbwrong.blogspot.com?m=1
Left a comment at the blog post.
Marc —it needs to be shouted from the rooftops of every media —social and main stream by every knowledgeable and lay person alike —EOs are NOT laws and a president can’t issue an edict by fiat.
😡
Isn't it strange how Republicans get shit done, right or wrong, Biden had 4yrs and couldn't pass any of the voting rights bills for waiting on bipartisanship. The Orange Fat Man just threw it out there as wrong as it maybe. Dems need to get their butts and do something positive for once.
💯
In fairness, he didn't get a damned thing done. Putting it in an EO doesn't make it so, thank god.
I agree, The Orange Fat Man didn't do a damn thing, but he threw it out there, and like any good rubber ball it bounced off the 4 walls. Biden had a chance to do something great, and failed because he was waiting on both sides to come together. He did a lot of good things, could have done much more
My state just codified voter rights and expanding efforts to make voting easier. Get yourself a Dem Gov., Dem Secretary of State and Dem Attorney General folks and you too can tell the 🍊🤡 to go F*ck himself.
Check out @electiontruth.bsky.social some of the swing states had Democrats in government. Wish they'd #verifythevote
Thank you, Marc and your group! We are behind you all the way!
There are a hundred easy ways to make voter access better. Voter fraud is not a "thing" no matter how many times they tell you it is, but GOP/MAGA fraud ON the voter is constant and unrelenting. www.americanprogress.org/article/trum...
Desperation brings ludicrous distractions to keep the serious issues from overwhelming the presidency of the felon.
It’s hard to reconcile the fact that we had a clear playbook outlining this path of destruction, yet so many chose to sit this one out. We knew this was coming—Trump’s executive order is not an isolated act but part of a calculated strategy to erode democratic norms and consolidate power.
“the Trump administration wants to cancel the 2026 elections” That was expected from day 1. There will be no elections.
He told us already during his campaign, “vote for me in 2024 and you’ll never have to vote again.”
I decided instead of fussing at democrats we need to be pointing the finger to the real culprits. The Republican-controlled congress can stop this but will not & the Majority Supreme Court justices decided not to do anything about Trump either. These are the accomplices who we need to callout!😡
When I ready "most enduring scandal" I didn't expect "in the last few days" to follow. On Earth I, it would have been decades, but we're unwillingly living on Earth II where scandals happen daily.
I’ve been voting by USPS for over 30 years. I used to work Broadway 🎭 Shows. I worked all kinds of Overtime, Late Hours. Every day was “On Call,” like a “Firefighter’s Schedule.”
when he encouraged his cult to vote for him, I remember him saying oh just do it this one time you won’t have to do it again. We know what he meant.
So sick of them. Particularly when they use oligarch money to get their guy elected. And now they’re doing the same for judges.
Anyone know the exact number of EOs he's already done? Didn't he complain about dems using EOs too much?
all these so called executive orders are temporary until the next President comes in! we have to make sure trump is gone after one term!!!! these so called orders are not within his executive powers! Congress and only Congress has the power to do this!
We need you to keep fighting Marc! You are so important
Yes. And do folks still think that we are going to have free and fair midterms? Between EOs like this one and President Musk’s vote buying?
Thank goodness for you Marc!
trump acts like these executive orders are law or even a statute when in reality they are not worth the paper they are written on! trying to rule like a king - but this will not work in America!
He would rule for a thousand years if he could just figure out how to do it. His voracious hunger knows no boundaries.
When scumbags like Paul Weiss surrender then Trump will issue executive orders for anything his corrupt heart desires until others like you push back.
They can’t win unless they cheat. It’s bull. Glad we have Marc & he has a spine. [unlike some others]
I'm incredibly thankful for all of the amazing work these hero attorneys are doing for all of us!!!! Fight, fight, FIGHT! 👊🇺🇸🔥
HE WILL THEN DECLARE NO MORE ELECTIONS JUST AS HE PROMISED BEFORE LAST ONE🤬🤬🤬🤬
Go, Marc and other good lawyers we need you so badly
Is that gesture that he makes with his hand in this photo describing the size of his tiny Willy ?
It’s like teenagers telling their parents to sign something from school while covering the top of the page. Does 🍊🤡 even know what he is signing these days? Since he doesn’t know he should have told the crew not to use Signal for sensitive info, can’t trust he know anything at all.
I feel like this isn’t getting enough attention. This is HUGE, America, and we need to fight to make sure he and the Republicans don’t get away with it!
We best take this advice seriously - smoke the phones, texts, etc. & scream bloody murder while you can cuz, he's gonna lock you up if he wins - there'll be NO screaming bloody murder if he wins. example: Navalny - killed in prison after an attempt to poison him.
Does an EO hold sway over all the states on something like who can vote? Doesn't seem like it would
Our governor recently squashed a bill wanting to supress voters rights. This will not fly. I think he did this to upend voting coming up in April.
If this fails, he will attempt to skew the results in other ways. If that fails, he will try to blatantly cheat or rig the results. If that fails, he’ll declare martial law.
Thank you for fighting against all of this!
Please form a legal alliance Marc and fight this.
Freedom-loving Americans are truly grateful for your relentless efforts in advocating for us & striving for a brighter future, Marc! 😷🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Americans resist.
Step on this cockroach.
He’s not a king.
When I read about it I immediately went to your feed to make me feel better.
Don the con Trump is busy lying.
Yup Don the Con Trump lies 24/7
Time to send Marc some $$$!
He is drunk on EOs. They are piling up in court and causing traffic jams. Can any of the counter litigation to these insane and despicable EOS be fast tracked?
That’s their sole purpose Gum up the works!
Pfft. They know that - maybe not trump personally, but. Looks like best they could do to distract from signal chat before it got away from them
The Executive Branch is completely corrupted and compromised. The Legislative Branch is mostly corrupted and compromised. The Judicial Branch is hanging by a thread. We're in deep trouble and need patriots like Marc Elias to save us.
🎯
They can’t win unless they have control or cheat. I still cannot comprehend he actually won ALL swing states in 2024.
With respect, “It will not work” is no longer of any comfort.
Trump is Putin’s protege. How many of us, Democrat, Independent or Republican, really want to live under a government modeled on Russia?
Musk super pack enters Florida special elections. How long are we going to put up with elections for sale?
Have you seen the money musk is spending in Wisconsin? Unconscionable.
Compounded by the voter bribes.
Right!!
Here's Trump letting Stephen Miller run the country. I guess he took time off from golf to sign the "EO." Disgraceful, and yet so not surprising. Thanks to all the state elections officials who ignore this piece of hateful theatre, and the lawyers who push back.
This can all be distilled down to one thing and I asked an AI to write about it: open.substack.com/pub/rondayvo...
And he is trying to shutter District Courts too! This is OUTRAGEOUS!
But does it give cover for certain states to implement these policies?
Boy is it hard to pick just one. This, or disappearing legal residents without due process, or giving highly classified info to someone on an unsecured channel....
It's this one, because if this one is lost, there is no hope of correcting anything else.
“With any luck you won’t have to vote in four years”
I can't afford to with the newest executive order trash.
We have almost two years to block it, fortunately
Pretty sad that it will take me that long to get mine.
Treason equals death.
He’s got about 3.8 years to keep working on it. This won’t stick but who knows what will. And the Dems have made it clear that even when they manage to get some leverage to hold the administration accountable, they won’t use it.
We must verify and repeatedly reconfirm who will vote against this in Congress.
He said it out loud, 'If you vote for me you'll never have to vote again'.
Tied up in courts and he’s hoping that some fancy attorneys that he just bullied into working for him is somehow going to get this passed.
Legit courts that uphold the Constitution will shut the front, back, and side doors on this. If it makes it that far, SCOTUS should be 9-0.
MORON....
That was the point all along, when he said he has it fixed so we want have to vote again. So that’s what the African American did with starlink, stole votes in the last election.
The Convicted Felon and Rapist is working hard to make himself a Dictator
That EO is DOA Trump will lose again in the courts with this. Count on it. Smh
"The last few days." Think about how fucked up that is.
The Signal breech was just the distraction so he could go this quietly.
Partner with the ACLU on this. And others. More groups need to come together for legal power slaps against these ridiculous EOs.
He needs the midterms to stay out of jail.
Was this the secret fix trump spoke about when he spoke to the MAGA house leader? Or changing the constitution to permit a third term? www.thenation.com/article/poli...
F¥ck this puto
Why won't it work? SCOTUS has been adamantly opposed to voting rights for years and the presidential immunity ruling proves they have no problem inventing total B.S.
hartmannreport.com/p/dear-gop-y...
Guarantee they dropped it during #SignalGate knowing our pathetic media can only focus on one story at a time.
www.project2025.observer
Remember when he promised his MAGA’s that they wouldn’t ever have to vote again? This! This is what he meant 😡
He needs to be seized immediately. The Nazification of America will not stand. This Terrorist Russian Assett must be removed Now.
How can we stop or at least slow down what’s to come next?
he still needs his Reichstag event before he can act.
The maggots are in power and will rig all local and national elections. I would love to hear from you Marc how/if we the people can stop them.
I am glad you are working on this one.
This is crazy
@marcelias.bsky.social did Jenner & Block bow down like Paul Weiss did?
He already suppressed votes in swing states @electiontruth.bsky.social so what can we do? #verifythevote
Annoying AF to see the press act like his stupid EO is law or something. Jesus, can we get better educated reporters?
Hum, wonder if #signalgate was a distraction. If there’s no punishment of Hegseth then you might assume they added a journalist to get the story out to distract from a larger more important one that could really save their jobs? Trumps cabinet knows nothing will happen to them so why not?
It's like a 3-ring circus where you can only focus on the loudest and most maniacal of clowns at any given moment- but the other rings never stop acting and performing.
It's their only path to a permanent autocratic state. They will try to stop the 2026 elections. We had all better work together to make sure they fail. It is our final bulwark against outright tryanny. We have only gotten just a taste of what that means, and it is horrifying.
Thank you Marc for not bending a knee! You are a rock star.
What a surprise, not! Can you believe the maggots voted this monster in! Time to take our nation back!
Trump is insane!! Fumbling old fool!!
Keep kicking his ass Mark!! No pressure, but our democracy is depending on you.
Moving so fast that we can’t keep up with their shenanigans.
As bad as all the things are, we have to keep asking, what is this recent incident distracting us from. Certainly feels like they don't want us to pay attention to this.
What I hope comes next.
PLEASE HELP SPREAD A MESSAGE LIKE THIS: "Good men, we need you! Now is your chance to be a true American HERO. We can't do this without your help & time is running out! Guys who oppose what's happening in Washington, SAY SOMETHING, DO SOMETHING. Talk to your bros. Get involved. Save Democracy!"
Votes can be systematically delegitimized, just like our republic.
I'm waiting for lawsuits to be filed against the executive order to strike it down - and hopefully they're going to be coming in a matter of days. At the same time when the GOP are trying to pass the SAVE Act (which likely will fail due to the filibuster if Dems stick together).
Thank you so much for everything you do Marc. I can’t imagine where we would be without your tireless work to make sure we have free and fair elections.
🖕🤡
🤬🤬🤬
📌
He's been implanted with a 2025 nuclear time bomb for the United States of America. Dumass senators just sittin around while the loyalist military prepares to roll their sillily exorbitant tanks right over the Posse Comitatus Act. What more evidence needed to realize we are only collateral damage??
They want to control the voting! "DementedDonnie" has ATTACKED the judicial system! "Retribution-in-the-White-House" has attacked every Federal Agencies/Entities without authority! They're attemptinbg to totally inundate the public! Call your Congressional representative/Senator: 202-224-3121
P 2025 is in full swing! The plan was designed before January 6th. Thank you for fighting!
