  1. I think non-rural people like Trump misunderstand something about rural Americans who are used to the privations of: failed crops, uncertainty of weather, unrelenting physical work without regard to any schedule or sickness... farming is built on disappointment, loss, hardwork, and luck. So, it's an often cynical tough crowd that finds solace in religion, to keep hope alive. They are used to tough times.

    And into this sere field of bare expectations sometimes comes the historical entertaining huckster, snake oil salesman, rainmaker and conman who gives them a new villain to blame and sells them the only cure. It's why Trump has been popular in rural America.

    But, as loyal and entertained by Trump, like a cult, they may be, their ties to the land itself are deeper and unforgiving. In Hawai'ian this is called "aina". The earth is a living entity that is the force that gives us food, that sustains generations. It is life.

    This is why the rural reaction to data centers has been so strong. In Trump's signature BBB a specific line was amended by lobbyists (RQOF - Qualified Rural Opportunity Funds) to directing and incentivizing corporate hyperscale development of RURAL data centers by making tax credits and federal incentives to corporate investment in rural areas PERMANENT... the phrase "data centers" were added. This now subsidized corporate capital-heavy "investment" to build data centers in rural areas that destroy farmland, overwhelm water resources, consume energy are for what? For whom? They produce no food, and poison a generational rural way of life.

    Rural people don't like the industrial and commercial life and constant noise and lights and traffic of cities. We have seen what data centers are. What they destroy. They are antithetical to the aina. I expected Red rural voters to sit out 2026. It now looks (recent YouGov) like instead of just withholding, some will, instead vote Blue.

  20. #CivilRights group says sending #ICE to #polls would 'intimidate voters'

    Civil rights groups filed a lawsuit seeking to keep ICE away from polling places, arguing the agency's presence could intimidate voters.
    by Michael Loria
    Sept. 10, 2026, Updated Sept. 11, 2026

    "A #Latino #CivilRightsGroup filed a lawsuit Sept. 10 aimed at keeping Immigration and Customs Enforcement out of polling places at the upcoming #MidtermElections, saying sending #ArmedForces to U.S. polling places will 'intimidate voters.'

    "The lawsuit, filed by the League of United #LatinAmerican Citizens ( #LULAC ), follows Department of Homeland Security Secretary #MarkwayneMullin stating ICE officers can go to polling places across the United States. Mullin said ICE officers will go to polling places in response to 'specific threats' or to serve a warrant.

    "Critics say Mullin’s policy is aimed at intimidating voters, will upend longstanding American norms, and violate a law keeping armed forces out of polling places that dates back to the end of the Civil War."

  26. He’s full of bogus campaign promises…Trump says the war in Iran will end after Election Day - again, if you believe this, after all his lies, your gullibility index is off the charts. Just look at the facts: #Trump originally stated the war would be over in “days”; he said we’d destroyed Iran’s military; that we control the Strait of Hormuz. All lies, belied by facts on the ground. If anything, #Iran has absorbed American attacks and has so far prevailed in this conflict - holding the global economy hostage. Instead of ‘regime change’, our attack on Iran has only solidified the power of the hardline factions and the military. Anything Trump says about the #IranWar and the #MiddleEast should be taken with a grain of sand. nbcnews.com/politics/2026-elec #elections #elections2026 #2026Elections #USPol #USPolitics
