We need a letter writing campaign to all Congresspeople asking them to pledge that they affirm this constitutional fact and that they promise to support the results of the elections in November. Somehow make it public if they don't sign.

This can’t possibly be a surprise to anyone. I don’t know how anyone can expect this midterm election to be like any in modern history. Trump’s coup has increasingly stepped up during his first year. It’s pretty obvious Trump has every intention to continue to escalate it more and more.

State AGs need to be ready to request preemptive, pre-election court injunctions to prevent FBI ballot seizures before votes can be counted. It is too late to go to court AFTER ballots have been seized. The Fulton County seizure is an example and maybe a dry-run.

Dictator Trump thinks he can run everything in this country the way HE wants. Not gonna happen. The civil war was a fight over accepting minorities as equals and it took another hundred years to complete it. The next civil war will be to save our Democracy from the felon and MAGA!
