Trump would love for this to happen so he can federalize elections and stop having them.

Pete Hegseth is banishing photographers from the Pentagon over β€œunflattering” photos of him?

Would be a shame if this picture kept circulating.

US military spent $9 million on crab legs and lobster in the months before Iran war Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth also authorized the $100,000 purchase of a Steinway & Sons grand piano for the Air Force chief of staff’s home, according to a watchdog report

I used to work for the government. In order to justify budgets, bad actors overspend at the end of the fiscal year. So the administration spent $93B on bullshit to justify massive Pentagon budget proposals, all while gutting health care and food assistance. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

He’s counting on it! He’ll use it to federalize elections and maybe even stop them altogether.

CNN: Military officials warned Trump about the steep risks for retaliation if he attacked Iran.

When there's another 9/11 style attack on American soil, blame Trump!

How Vivek Ramaswamy's campaign for Ohio governor returned him to the 'real world' Gone is the anti-woke firebrand who challenged Donald Trump for president in 2024. Here is a Republican calling for consensus β€” and calling out racism and bigotry in the GOP.

Oh, so now he's calling out racism in the GOP. πŸ™„This piece of shyt ran one of the most racist campaigns in 2024. His entire platform was anti-Black.

Don't be fooled, Ohio.

The Desire for Terror And the defense of democracy

A purpose of the war on Iran might well be to provoke a terrorist attack inside the United States, thereby justifying the need to β€œfederalize” elections. We must anticipate it, with sadness and resolution, and not be surprised, if it happens.

It is not a question of polls. It is not a question of politics. It is a question of morality and legality and constitutional obligation. Every member of the Congress of the United States takes an oath of office to uphold the laws and Constitution of the United States of America.

Today, @fetterman.senate.gov was the sole Democrat to vote "no" on a Senate resolution aimed at curbing Trump's military authority in Iran. Fetterman joined Republicans in defeating the measure, citing support for the administration’s actions and the need for a strong stance.
