GOP’s Voter Suppression Scam EXPOSED | Rep. Dan Goldman
YouTube video by Democracy Docket GOP’s Voter Suppression Scam EXPOSED | Rep. Dan Goldman

πŸ“½οΈNEW: Rep. Dan Goldman explains the misuse of the DOJ, federal interference in elections and voter suppression efforts ahead of the midterms.

Drawing on his experience as a former federal prosecutor, he also frames the SAVE America Act as a central pillar of a broader election-subversion strategy.

Trump plans to send $10 billion in funds that Congress hasn’t appropriated from the US Treasury to an organization that he will continue to chair personally even after he is out of office.

This is looting.

Here's a list of all the places Trump is building concentration camps to brutalize non-white men, women, and kidsβ€”including many in the US legally and some who are citizens.

Most will be sent to die in places they've never been to or to be tortured by Trump pals.

The courage of Minnesotans to pull together and to continue to witness and record the terror caused by heavily armed, masked government thugs sometimes while simply wearing a bathrobe with nothing more than a whistle knowing they could be summarily executed is truly remarkable.

MAGA dimwit Peter Navarro accidentally admitted Trump-MAGA's claim about immigrants taking jobs is a scam. And as @pkrugman.bsky.social notes, not only is job growth down; *manufacturing* jobs are also down. The whole MAGA story is in collapse.

Oh man, he heard about the bridge. His reaction of course, β€˜where’s my cut’. Billions for his private stash? Maybe some other flex as well - slapping his name on it or demanding CA cede property to the US? Windsor? This admin’s corruption is mind-numbing. I hope Carney stands up to him.

β€œIf passed, the SAVE Act will disenfranchise 20 million voters.”

Trump has pushed the Republicans to hold a vote in the House this week.

Call your Rep and your Senators.

…because he likes how his supporters will believe him over the truth (i.e. say a blatantly racist post isn’t racist). Or maybe it’s just a Thursday. Or maybe he’s just a jackass.

It’s so exhausting. But I do appreciate the few Rs who spoke out. Maybe next time there will be a few more.

Wondering why the racist post in the first place? Was he just bored looking for a reaction? Showing his muscle by posting it and then pretending it’s not racist? Gets a kick out of the fact his base will automatically defend him…

Another way to express the same sentiment as Sir Ian McKellen’s recitation of Shakespeare from a different cultural perspective.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

It is infuriating how much he lies. He didn’t just hand farmers $12 billion purportedly from *tariff money*. There is no *tariff money*. Instead, he put together a $12 billion aid package to farmers struggling from the devastating effects of his tariffs.

We are now seeing the highest gold and silver futures prices ever. This links directly to heavy speculation against the US dollar based on a sense that the US is now experiencing its worst economic misadministration in the period after World War II.

For Trump, the Truth in Minneapolis Is What He Says It Is

Trump and his team have taken the same reality-bending approach that he took to the 2020 election to the violence in Minneapolis in evident hopes of persuading his political base, at least, that the protesters were responsible for their own deaths. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/25/u...

AG Bondi demands access to Minnesota voter rolls after fatal Border Patrol shooting Her demand came as Minneapolis was reeling from a second fatal shooting by a federal agent this month.

If you want proof that Trump is going to try to rig the elections, here it is:

In a letter to Gov. Tim Walz Saturday, Bondi claimed that Walz could β€œrestore the rule of law” by complying with a list of demands, including giving the Department of Justice (DOJ) the state’s voter registration records.

The leaders of Albania & Azerbaijan were filmed mocking US Trump for claiming he ended a war between the 2 countries, even though they have never fought each other.

The world thinks that the occupant is a joke.
He’s destroying our country. Congress must act.

The ICE invasion of Minnesota wasn't premised on some huge number of undocumented workers. It was premised on the lies Trump peddled in December about Somalis and a five-year-old welfare fraud scandal.

ICE has nothing to do with policing welfare fraud.

Trump vetoes bill to fund Arkansas Valley Conduit in Colorado President Trump vetoed a bill to fund a pipeline project to bring clean drinking water to communities on the Eastern Plains between Pueblo and Lamar.

A bill with bipartisan support to bring safe drinking water to people in Colorado is vetoed by Trump.
Why?
It appears he’s pressuring Colorado to free his crooked ally who is imprisoned for tampering with voting systems.
Trump doesn’t give a crap about anything but his own money and power.

This is remarkably well-written. I had been mildly curious (and disturbed) when Olivia Nuzzi said she had a toxic, non-physical, *I-don’t-know-what-you-call-this* thing with RFK, Jr. Let’s not give it a name. Probably best not to read the poem either. I could not and feel I am better off.
