Today at school dismissal, I followed a suspicious pickup around for a bit, keeping an eye on them, trying to figure out if they were ICE. Then I realized they were keeping an eye on me also. Then I realized they were, in fact, other parents. Life in Minnesota, January 2026.

Yeah I don’t know if I’d want to be looking up line numbers in the source during an outage either :) If I have to verify what it tells me in the source because it’s unreliable, then why am
I using it?

First, he's saying the quiet part out loud: he wants to take over elections to control outcomes.

Second, when he realizes he can't do this directly, he will try to leverage federal funding to coerce states to tilt the playing field for him.

Governors and courts better be ready to defeat that.

Yeah I’m pretty removed from using these tools so I’m not in a position to weigh in too heavily, but from what I know I’d be concerned about using them to troubleshoot an outage, for example.

One extremely upsetting thing about reality is that the DOJ just like...had all this information, and their official stance seemed to be shrugging and going: "Huh! That's weird!"
