Elections have consequences. The Supreme Court will be changed for a generation. I’ll never see a moderate court again in my lifetime. Alito and Thomas will step down and Trump will appoint 40 year old partisans to the bench. The damage he is about to inflict on our institutions the next 2 years will be irreparable.
Btw, we're going to have a 7-2 SCOTUS for the next 40 years. Any hope of any progress in civil rights or in progressive policy is completely and utterly dead.
Whatever happens, one thing is clear: Trumpism is now the GOP permanently. There is no battle for the future of that party. It believes different things now and doesn’t think character matters—and Americans appear to have plenty of appetite for it. It has no incentive to change.
It’s insane to me that we now live in a world where Democratic polling locations are being targeted with fake bomb threats in order to suppress turnout.
BREAKING into @scrippsnews: we were in the command center of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s office this evening when a bomb threat was sent about the superior court here, via email. Within minutes, they heard 2 other counties in the state had received exact same language/threat.
We're hearing of another bomb threat at a polling place in DeKalb County where the fire department is waiting for the police to clear the building. The FBI says the previous threats originated from Russian email domains.

BREAKING: Unsubstantiated bomb threats were made to four Navajo Nation voting sites in Navajo County today, believed to be from a foreign entity ("namely, Russia"), according to Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes.
Navajo Nation is a longtime Democratic stronghold.
The biggest story of the night is Russia calling multiple bomb threats into Democratic strongholds across the country. This should shock every American to the core.
BREAKING: Voting is suspended at 5 locations in DeKalb Co., GA in metro Atlanta after bomb threats, county officials say in news release obtained by @CNN.
The locations include a church, two libraries, a community center and a senior center
Just in: 12 polling places in Georgia are having their hours extended due to Russian-originated bomb threats, according to Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.
Waking up today, there’s a feeling I can’t quite put into words but it’s something like no matter how this goes, I’m deeply disappointed and angry that we are even here.
It is inappropriate, enraging and damning that someone like Donald Trump is even on the ballot.
This platform will be set all day and in days to come to promote lies about election fraud. If you see that, remember that it is part of a plan by losers to ruin our democracy.
