@SethAbramson @KronickSusan I expect as we get closer to the November election, National Guard units under his Federalized command will set up a perimeter around the White House. Protestors will never be able to get anywhere close to him. If he wants to leave the WH for trips, he has his helicopter.

@SethAbramson Once there is a new President, they will control the military, the FBI, the Secret Service, the DOJ, Homrland Security.
Even JD Vance isn’t letting Trump hide in the White House indefinitely.

[Seth Abramson @SethAbramson]

Correct. There is precisely zero evidence this man ever intends on leaving this building. And his willingness to use violence to keep himself there has already been established.

If it turns out Mitch McConnell is dead and the GOP are involved in a coverup to prevent a special election that is mandated by Kentucky law, people need to go to prison.

Full stop.

🚨BREAKING: Federal Court DISMISSES Department of Justice lawsuit to obtain an unredacted copy of New York's statewide voter registration list. A big victory for Elias Law Group and our Client the NAACP.

DOJ is now 0-12 in these cases. ELG is undefeated. https://t.co/35wTb8gBDB

Donald Trump cannot cancel elections but he can try to make it harder for people to vote and easier for the GOP to cheat. That includes misuse of the federal government and inciting his MAGA mob of election vigilantes.

We need to be ready to send up and protect elections.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

So military troops under the direct control of Trump and Hegseth will be on the streets of our nation’s capital for the rest of Trump’s term. The rationale—they’re here to help with a crime emergency—is laughable. But of course the real reason is ominous.

ICE lied about how Renee Good was shot.

They lied about how Alex Pretti was shot.

And now they’re lying about how Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was shot.

Don’t believe their story for a second.

The U.S. is a budding kleptocratic autocracy.

My latest: Donald Trump is telling us his plan. This week, the Department of Justice announced that election monitors would be sent to six states — Arizona, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire and Virginia. https://t.co/1yZsptHn3C

[Marc E. Elias @marceelias]

Following reports that Trump fired the leadership on the Election Assistance Commission, lawmakers, election officials and voting rights advocates are sounding the alarm that the move is an attempt to meddle with voting in the months before midterms.

He's building a massive WH bunker, firing election officials, demanding voter rolls, and wants to create a permanent way to block access to the WH. If I was a conspiratorial sort, I'd be connecting some dots that don't end well for democracy.

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

The Republican Party 4 months before midterms: "You're not getting affordable housing unless you give up your voting rights"

Great message.

The greatest threat to America's elections is Donald Trump.

Effectively shutting down the independent organization that certifies voting systems and supports our state election officials is not a subtle move.

Every one of us has to use our voice and our vote to save democracy.

[NoelCaslerComedy @caslernoel]

Whenever ICE says someone tried to use their vehicle as a weapon they are lying to cover up the murder of innocents. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was in this country for 35 years, contributing to this land & he was killed by thugs and goons. I hope every Trump official rots in hell.

[Michael McFaul @McFaul]

This! @davidaxelrod is exactly right. Time for pro-democratic forces in the US, including Republicans, to act. We just celebrated the 250th anniversary of the birth of our democracy. Not a time to let the ideals of the Declaration of Independence be undermined.
