“The current Supreme Court is not engaged in adjudication, … It is simply another arm of a dictatorial takeover of the U.S. federal government.”
By accreting king-like powers to the president, allowing him to disregard Congress & the lower courts, the cabal made it so that only one election matters—the presidency.
They must be certain that they will ALWAYS hold the presidency. Do we doubt they will use any and all means necessary to do so, including cheating?

This report raises the obvious question: Did the reverse happen with trump’s bombing of Iran’s nuclear sites — did trump seek permission to bomb them.
Observers blamed trump’s blabbermouth for Iran’s ability to remove its 60% enriched uranium from danger, but maybe HE asked Iran “Mother, May I” first!
In fact should consider the distinct possibility this was all a sham — from Israel’s sudden attack on Iran weeks ago.

FWIW, I read yesterday that a former Bush official said the flagpole may prevent the helicopter from landing on the South lawn.
So if the helicopter lands elsewhere, the president would have the added risk (& effort) of walking a greater distance—probably solved by firing up the gas-guzzling limo.
In any other (competent) administration I’d say that of course the helicopter landing site was considered, but …

Yeah I always notice how few likes & retweets there are of trump’s posts here. Of course, there’s a cadre of accomplices who repost the shot in other social media (I’m looking at you, musk)
At least I don’t think the media breathlessly reports on every one of his posts like they did before. (I’m not sure cuz I rarely watch what passes for tv news)

That foot dragging with your passport sounds very arbitrary! Good luck with getting it straightened out.
So many examples of the difficulties woman may have qualifying to vote—that men won’t under this crappy Republican law.
And many women of my age didn’t have a choice of keeping their own surname — I tried to but was denied!

Haha—Good one!!! Wonder if our “wokism” era IDs will be accepted?
To clarify—my name now is different from my birth name cuz I remarried after the last divorce.
I don’t think my marriage/divorce situation is unusual. To get a passport I had to provide proof tracing my birth name to my current married name.
This law will be an asspain for the states and to come up with all the certified documents & expensive for women needing them.

Oy Vey! I’m an example of the difficulties with this.
I was married a couple times & resumed my “maiden” name in the divorces. I’m not unusual.
I might be okay cuz I hold a “RealID” (yellow star in upper right) license & recently got a passport, both of which required extensive documentation on my part. BUT knowing #Gop I may not.
Getting these documents will swamp the system, unless a lo-o-o-ng lead time is allowed. 😱

That’s another possibility—Putin & trump divvying up the northern hemisphere! I saw that recently Putin DID comment favorably on US having Greenland.
As I see it Putin & Russia are part (if not the hub)of a transnational criminal organization, and he has a partner in crime trying to make the US & its government a part of that. There are riches beyond belief to flow from this, and we know how much trump loves money.

Shortly before trumpet mused on buying Greenland in summer 2019, I saw a futurecast video on Twitter showing how Greenland & parts of northern Canada will be the only arable land in North America.
I figured this video spurred him to see Greenland as a fertile playground & food source for the ultra-rich.
The video time line was far in the future & most of us will be dead, but it’s questionable how aware he is of his own mortality.

Little known that one reason postal rates kept rising is because Congress passed a law in 2006 called the Postal Accountability & Enhancement Act. It required USPS to FULLY PRE-Fund it’s future retiree health benefits (most agencies use a pay as you go system).
The prefunding requirement was repealed in 2022, BUT there’s likely a nice chunk of change in their Retiree Health Benefits Fund that trump will get his hands on.
Damn, we postal customers paid for that!

If you’re talking about interacting on BlueSky, it sounds like unless a BlueSky account has permitted the bridge (like [@emptywheel.bsky.social](https://bsky.brid.gy/r/https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social ) ), you have to go to the trouble of signing up for a BlueSky account separate from your new & old mastodon accounts.

So [@emptywheel.bsky.social](https://bsky.brid.gy/r/https://bsky.app/profile/emptywheel.bsky.social ) went to the trouble of bridging with the Fedi, probably cuz she was already on mastodon.
The others I’ve tried to follow without success migrated to BlueSky from threads, so not clued into the Fedi.

I used the bridge to Blue Sky a couple weeks ago to follow Empty Wheel & it worked just fine—I pressed follow & Empty Wheel was on my feed.
But when I tried to follow other BlueSky accounts, it asked me to sign in or sign up. So I tried to sign in with my bridge user name as I understand it: bronakins.mastodonworld.social.ap.brid.gy but it asked for a password.
Help — what am I doing wrong?

I too have resisted the temptation to engage in conspiratorial thinking about 2024—willing to chalk the loss up to mis/disinfo ops & worldwide rejection of incumbents.
But the two letters linked in my post below offered more evidence than trump had in any of his 61 cases challenging 2020!
I would expect VP Harris as a law enforcement officer would want to investigate

Below are recent letters to V P Harris urging her to demand hand recounts of votes in the swing states. The authors say that in each swing state & ONLY swing states, there were a historically high number of “ballots” that voted for just one candidate (trump) and none of the down-ballot races, making it likely that many of these are fake. Hand recounts would reveal the fraud.
Please BOOST.

Biden is President until Jan 20, 2025 (unless something unforeseen occurs). As Truman put it, the buck stops with the President. While Harris may have had input, in our non-parliamentary system the VP is constrained to support the President.
I feel Harris has subtly but strongly signaled her disagreement with Netanyahu’s ethnic cleansing of Gaza, and once sworn in (or maybe sooner) demand a shift from Israel. Harris has an election to win first.

trump doesn’t likes animals; he retweeted a FAKE pic of him awarding a medal to the dog that was injured pursuing al Bagdrani.
When he appeared with the dog in person, he stood well in front of him, while Pence scratched the dog’s ears. )wtf does Melania have on here(
But my fave Trump animal pic is the clip of an eagle attacking that thing on his head. I saw the clip recently I. A Harris ad!😹

The problem is I don’t see or know of any way to “approve” the request. In my settings I do not have it set to screen followers & yours is the first time I’ve encountered such a request.
I’m not a tech wiz & have put out a post about the problem here but no takers yet. Just wanted you to know why no response. Maybe just try to unfollow & refollow me? 🤷🏼‍♀️

OTOH, since Republicans are looking so diligently for undocumented people trying to vote, which they WILL NOT find evidence of, they will prove that it was a fair election.
