KLOBUCHAR: Alex Pretti's parents said what you said was one of the most hurtful things they could imagine. Do you want to say anything to Alex's parents?

NOEM: I did not call him a 'domestic terrorist.' I said it 'appeared to be an incident of'

KLOBUCHAR: I think the parents saw it for what it was

Seems like the media should at least express some curiosity about this.

Maybe it’s a bad idea to put people in charge of government who are eager for the rapture.

DOJ's recent 6th Circuit filing misspelled:

Voters as β€œVotors”
Emergency as "Emeregency"
United States as "United Staes"

And, it included a non-party in the caption.

These are the people who want access to your sensitive voting records and who my team fights in court every day.

Chris Murphy: "It's just so disgusting to listen to the president be waxing poetically about the drapes he's buying while there are six Americans who are dead. There are six families who are about to bury their children because of a war of choice that no one in this country wanted, an illegal war."

Crow: "Friday night, Trump filmed this tough video where he talked about the cost of war & how hard it's gonna be & how we're gonna lose troops, then he literally went behind the curtain & hosted a million dollar a plate dinner & dance party at Mar-a-Lago. That tells you everything you need to know"

Jeffries: "The American people want us to focus on making their life better & more affordable, not getting involved in another endless war in Middle East that's going to end in failure.

A big part of the authoritarian playbook is war. War takes over the news. War blots out criticism. War divides a nation’s people, subjecting those against it to being called unpatriotic. War grants leaders all sorts of emergency powers. War consumes everything else.

We mustn’t let this war do so.

If you want to distract from the Epstein Files, maybe don't name your act of war something that also has the initials E F.
Epstein Fury?

It's painfully obvious to me that a whole lot of people who are telling us the elections can't be interfered with are totally clueless concerning what has been done in several important states that will allow them to do just that.

Still, nobody on the right will care about the contradiction. They will only care how it effects their bank account. And it will.

DANGER ⚠️ DANGER

Pro-Trump lawyers are circulating a draft executive order.

The bogus claim: China interfered in 2020 and justifies a national emergency declaration that would give Trump sweeping power over U.S. elections.

Q: Are you considering declaring a national emergency around the military elections?

TRUMP: Who told you that?

Q: There's been reporting that there's an executive order. Are you looking at that?

TRUMP: No

No president β€” including Donald Trump β€” can declare an β€œemergency” to override the Constitution and manipulate American elections.
Free and fair elections are the foundation of our democracy.
I’m introducing the Free Elections Act to block any abuse of emergency powers.
