  1. Ottawa–Alberta talks on a $130/tonne carbon price show something else: the federation still works. Even on divisive energy policy, provinces negotiate outcomes within a national framework. That undercuts separation narratives since Canada’s strength is working together, not walking away. buff.ly/nlYglKR

  11. You can learn a lot about gov't from studying disaster relief, from how #federalism works (or doesn't) to why "best practices" are important in #crises. Most important, you'll see why focus, professionalism and good management are critical to good gov't. fromthegovt.com/disaster-relie

  12. Since we don't teach civics in school anymore, I recommend Crash Course's video series on Government & Politics for anyone who wants a refresher.

    The best chance for the USA staying together and functioning after this authoritarian era is mercifully over is a reset of #federalism

    One important hindrance that has prevented Trump from being the total dictator he wanted to be has been the Constitutional powers still reserved by the states and their governors.

  13. Any move to force changes to #state run ​#election systems is likely to face immediate #legal challenges.

    #Trump claimed only a judge could block the order & complained that there were many "rogue" & "very bad" judges. "I don't see ​how they can challenge it," he said about the executive order.

  14. The order would use federal #data to help state #election ​officials verify who is “eligible” to #vote in their jurisdictions. It would also require #AbsenteeBallots to be sent only to ⁠voters on each state's “approved” mail-in ballot list & mandate “secure” ​ballot envelopes with unique tracking barcodes.

  15. #Trump signs #ExecutiveOrder on #mail #ballots, escalating #election overhaul push

    Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday aimed at tightening mail-in voting rules nationwide, including by ​directing his admin to create a list of confirmed #US #citizens eligible to #vote in each state, & said he did not see how the measure could be challenged.

  18. Ridiculous

    #SCOTUS seems skeptical of allowing #states to accept late-arriving #mail #ballots

    In two hours of arguments, the court’s conservative justices appeared mostly skeptical of Mississippi’s defense of its five-day grace period.

  19. Voter fraud almost never happens in the #US. Still, in order to “prevent” it, #Trump is pushing #Republicans to pass the SAVE America Act, an #ElectionLaw that would, among many provisions, require people to show photo identification to #vote [proof of citizenship].

    It’s a solution in search of a problem — a solution that narrowly passed in the #House last week & is now under debate in the #Senate.

  29. The proposal takes aim ​at the actions of #bar associations & similar professional organizations, not government entities, that investigate alleged ⁠#unethical conduct by #lawyers & consider actions such as #disbarment, which involves revoking a #license to practice #law [cuz, yeah, sane humans believe Rudolph Giuliani should still have legal authority /s].

  34. The proposal would give the #USattorney general the right to review misconduct allegations against current or former #DOJ #attorneys & request that disciplinary authorities at the state level suspend their investigations.

    That would mean that ​the #US AG, by dragging out such a review, could stall any such investigation.

  36. “But here we have a situation where the president is aware that there are foreign interests that are interfering in our election processes,” Ticktin went on. “That causes a national emergency where the president has to be able to deal with it.”

    The “emergency” would empower the president to ban mail ballots & #VotingMachines as the vectors of foreign interference, Ticktin argued.
