“MIRVing” the NDAA plus either SAVE America or Voter I.D. would still allow the Senate to strip out either or. The only way to ensure the Senate passes this is to make sure it’s in the bill text of the NDAA, meaning that my amendment(s) must be made an order. I’m not trying to be difficult, but this is what 80% of Americans want and what we promised the American people, so I stand by my decision.
its pretty wild that all it took to get Barrett to burn down the country was a single swatting a month ago
well to be fair I guess its a swatting after someone tried to kill another justice
Since there is no legal deadline for ballot receipt the GOP should set deadlines in red states for blue districts beyond January 3rd thus negating the election entirely and shorting democrat representation in congress
Stratford, CT Mayor David Chess oversaw the painting of an lgbtq pride crosswalk
This is a direct violation of @USDOT policy and this city can now be defunded.

We need to not just double, but quadruple, the deportation numbers each year.
The first 1.5 years required fighting—and winning—key legal battles.
With the Supreme Court now allowing Trump to end TPS and asylum claims at the border, we need to mass-deport ALL illegals.
🇺🇸 RFK Jr. put his finger on the Medicaid scam that should OUTRAGE everyone: ghost enrollments.
A new finding shows around a million people allegedly enrolled with no Social Security numbers:
"Those people probably don't exist."
And if they don't, the insurers and brokers collecting checks for them have been quietly looting taxpayer dollars.
Phantom patients, real payouts.
This is exactly the kind of fraud that DRAINS the system while everyone looks away.

Let me get this straight.
If I’m not allowed to walk into a ballot station and vote after Election Day, why should mail-in ballots be allowed to arrive and be counted after the fact?
Do people not realize how BACKWARDS that is?
Justices Barrett and Robert’s clearly don’t.
Their decision will enable fraudsters.
AMERICANS deserve to know the results on Election Night.
The SAVE America Act needs to be passed before it’s too late.
The Save America Act is simple: Go back to Election Day—not election month—and require voters to prove they are who they say they are.
That’s how we earn back the American people’s trust.
.@StephenM: "If you have a situation as we saw in California... where every single day, ballots continue to tilt the election in evermore improbable and ultimately impossible ways, then we don't have a democracy. We have no faith in our election system."
When is Barack Obama going to acknowledge Africa’s ties to the slave trade stretching back thousands of years? When is he going to “draw renewed attention” to the fact that slavery remained legal in parts of Africa until the mid 20th century?
For a US official to fly the flag of another country after having sworn an oath of citizenship that requires sole loyalty to America is nothing but treason!
Tomorrow Barrett will publish her argument that a Chinese Communist party member who flies to Guam so he and his wife can deliver their baby, who then take their child to be raised in China, will be eligible to be President of the United states 35 years later
The Constitution says the whole country must choose its government together, on a single shared day, and Congress passed the Election Day law to do exactly that, so the law cannot be read to permit the very thing it was meant to stop: fifty states with fifty different deadlines. An election is not millions of separate private acts spread across the calendar; it is one decision by the whole nation, and that decision is not final until the ballots are in the hands of the officials who count them, so holding the election “on Election Day” must mean the ballots are in by that day. When the law’s words, its purpose, the nation’s history, and the Constitution’s design all point to one shared national deadline, that is the correct reading, and any ballot arriving after Election Day misses that deadline and should not be counted.
It doesn’t get any simpler than this.
For nearly two centuries before 2000, the Supreme Court understood elections as the bedrock of the Republic and did not shrink from policing them.
Then came Bush v. Gore, and the Court got burned, fairly or not, as the body that handed a man the presidency. And ever since, when the questions that matter most have are before it , the Court doesn’t take them.
Look at the pattern. In 2020, with the integrity of a presidential election in open dispute and real, ripe, fully-briefed legal questions sitting on its docket, the Court turned them away one after another, on standing, on timing, on technicalities, on anything except the merits.
The Pennsylvania mail-ballot questions were teed up and ready. The Court left them unanswered. And it wasn’t just critics saying so: Justices Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch said it from the bench, that the Court was dodging questions it had a duty to decide. And refusing to settle the rules was itself a dereliction.
The justices have shown they are perfectly willing to decide sweeping election cases when it suits them, when the timing is safe, when the political heat is low, when they can rule on their own schedule and at a comfortable distance from any live contest. What they will not do is step in when it actually counts, when votes are being cast and counted and the rules are in genuine doubt.
That is the precise moment the country most needs a clear answer, and that is the exact moment the Court goes silent. An institution that decides the easy cases and runs from the hard ones is not exercising judicial restraint. It is exercising self-preservation.
And it won’t save them from their fate should the left win.
When the Court refuses to settle the rules in advance, it does not make the chaos go away. It guarantees it. It leaves every state guessing, every campaign litigating, every voter wondering whether the rules they played by will hold.
The single greatest service the Court could perform is to draw clear, bright lines about how federal elections must be run, before the votes are cast, so that no one can game the ambiguity afterward.
By choosing instead to hide behind standing doctrines and timing rules whenever the stakes are highest, the Court has abandoned their job.
What a bunch of cowards.
