Congress can fix it with legislation to severely curb mail-in voting, ballot harvesting, etc. Technically, that would only affect federal, not state, elections, but since states usually combine the two, it would affect those too. Democrats would oppose this, of course, but so do dumb “muh federalism” Republicans.
@redsteeze Already attacking members of the caucus he wishes to join. Maybe having this repugnant garbage human in the Senate would have some benefit, namely repelling all decent people by serving as the face of the “new Democrat party.”
@GatianFor2028@musepwt He’s a spoiled rich kid cosplaying as “working class hero” who’s had EVERYTHING handed to him. If he hadn’t come from money, he’s exactly the type of guy who would spend his life in and out of prison.
@ishapiro One thing the Bears wanted was some assurance that the state/county wasn’t going to constantly jack up the property value assessment on the stadium for tax purposes. In a sense, that would be a “government subsidy”, but ultimately they left because taxes are too high.
This is playing out just like the defenestration of Joe Biden. Media has flipped on a dime from “everything is fine” to “this is a problem”.
Platner is going to be pushed out, and all the people who have fervently defended this degenerate will instantly pivot to, “See, we Democrats care about character, not like you Republicans.”
Went to vote today for the California primaries
The guy next to me called over an election worker because his ballot didn't include the LA mayoral race
The worker checked and told him it was because his registered address was in Malibu, which is outside the City of LA
The guy then asked if he could provide another address
To my surprise, the answer was yes
So he gave the worker an LA address, they voided his previous ballot, issued a new one, and suddenly he was able to vote for the mayor of LA
How is voter ID not mandatory in all 50 states?

@ByronYork "Just finish the job" is easier said than done, especially when the rest of the world won't help, and you have a traitorous opposition party at home actively rooting for you to fail.
@TomSteyer “You” aren’t going to arrest anyone, Jefferson Davis. And the few law enforcement officers your pro-crime party despises and hasn’t managed to run out of the state yet won’t either, because they’re not retarded.
Whatever Milton’s intent, the result, particularly as viewed by the Romantics, who worshipped Milton, was a heroic Satan. Shelley said “sacred Milton”’s Satan “was morally superior to his God.” Byron viewed Milton’s Satan as the classic misunderstood, defiant rebel, and used him as the model for many of the heroes of his own work. Wordsworth, much the same. Maybe they all just got Milton wrong, as some have indeed argued, but still, that’s what they took and passed on in their own influential work.
Awaiting details and developments.
Anything short of regime destruction, I'm gonna have to start agreeing with Democratic douchebags and the IRGC's Lego Army. Trump lost.
Caveat to that is sufficient gains elsewhere, isolating China and Russia. Dust needs to settle on this. But any result that betrays the Iranian people in their desire to be rid of the mullahs, IRGC, Basij and now the foreign militias they've brought in. Nope.
