reminder: the explicit USPS rule (*currently blocked in court*) is that USPS will not deliver *any and all* mail ballots to voters in states that refuse to provide the fed gov with lists (lists that, even if they wanted, states can't do in time at this point) not technicalities — mass non-delivery
This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.

Detention centers are a business model. If undocumented immigrants aren’t enough to keep the beds full, the net just gets wider. First “illegals,” then visa holders, then naturalized & green cards holders Supply has to match the contracts. That’s how the system keeps itself fed.
So targeting elderly people who've worked and paid taxes for decades. *Shakes fist* It's almost like just when one thinks they can't get any crueler, this admin digs deep and finds a way.

The White House was controlling the teleprompter. The White House videographer triggered the escalator. But we're gonna hear about it anyway to distract from how weak and feckless this administration is.
Maria Bartiromo: "And then the sabotage efforts! Him going on the escalator and the escalator stops, the teleprompter going down. What went on yesterday at the UN General Assembly, congressman?"

Mail-in voting fraud is rare - and those who attempt to cheap the system are caught early. Voting by mail allows the sick and infirm to exercise their voting rights. It's a vital voting option for active duty military... And it's popular among politicians, inc. Trump: www.npr.org/2020/08/19/9...

While processes differ, state-to-state, mail-in voting is secure, with registration protocols at the front-end, ballot tracking for transparency and oversight, and ballot verification at the point of receipt. More than 30 nations use mail-in voting, inc. Canada, Switzerland, S. Korea, and the U.K.

Extremely dark that the entire U.S. government is lying down to be steamrolled by something called the Trump agenda for fear of some force called "Donald Trump" while the actual Donald Trump has no idea what's happening
Helluva @notusreports.bsky.social scoop showing that Trump has no idea what's in his budget bill. Seems like something that ought to get a lot more attention. Also this: a republican house member actually admits that they are attacking medicaid. Yes, they are. www.notus.org/congress/rec...
