When the smoke clears on all this so many safeguards of the country's democratic/civic infrastructure has been exposed as weak, exploitable, unresponsive and slow.

The courts of course and how unfair they are and the endless appeals and BS games a person with limitless funds can play is first and foremost.

The endless lies spewed by entertainment as news propaganda news orgs will hopefully bring the fairness doctrine back

Billionaires control both with impunity.

I'll have to respectfully disagree with both of you on him winning this. I don't think he'll even come close.

If he couldn't steal the election with all the resources of POTUS, he won't do it this time.

But I'm sure his shiteheads learned a great deal about exploitable weaknesses in 2020. Many of the sleazy pre-election tactics have been mitigated so far, but I worry about what their plan of action is from election day through inauguration. It needs to be leaked.

Trump is likely to win. Last time, he was constrained by not having willing operatives in place in the various agencies and departments. They aren’t going to make that mistake again. Also last time, after a few big and largely ineffective demonstrations, people generally let him do what he wanted without doing much about it. I hope that this time, we will be willing and able to actually act. There will be people who need protection or to get out of there. I hope we will help.

Ended up taking an anxiety pill this morning. My team at work is going through some restructuring/reorganizational changes. That on top of the election, the upcoming time change, sensory overload last night, not sleeping, and my usual chronic pain and I’m just done for today.

@LnzyHou @TheresaVermont I my partner looked at Trump's behavior and decided to vote for him, I'd become single in a hurry (after making sure it wasn't a brain injury or something).

I just finished hanging my 22 photographs at our public library meeting room.

They'll be on display Nov 1 thru Dec 31

I need to take my little level with me when I go back next.

The closer we get to Election Day, the more the dangers of a second Trump term are evident.

MAGAs may pretend to argue over whether Vice President Kamala Harris is Indian or Jamaican or American, or by some sleight of hand, nothing at all

But at the end of the day it's clear how MAGAs view her: As a black slave in chains being dragged behind the cart of a white master. That's not an inference but the way they choose to portray her.

Because Trumpism is racism. Not 'deep down,' not 'at its core'; that's all it is.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) released the following statement:
“The IC assesses that Russian influence actors manufactured a recent video that falsely depicted individuals claiming to be from Haiti and voting illegally in multiple counties in Georgia."

LMAO excruciatingly stupid premise, c'mon

I have a tiny blooming hope that women voting in record numbers, especially in swing states, is a good thing for democracy.

10 out 10 as Al Gore was the winner.

The Supreme Court screwed the pooch on that one.

Republicans, your legacies keep getting worse.

@cassandra17lina

Yeah, it sounded like they were just trying to get out the vote, but it does seem very misguided to me, especially in our current political climate.

@misterfive Thank you for posting this. The mailing definitely left me uneasy.
