"Trump won't need to cancel the midterms if this Republican plot succeeds
Trump has already laid the psychological and structural groundwork to undermine or suspend elections; he just may not need to declare martial law if his fixers pull off what’s happening already this year.
Award-winning investigative journalist Greg Palast, a committed non-partisan, has laid it out in painful detail. And what he’s uncovered should terrify every American who believes in democracy.
Palast argues that Trump’s GOP doesn’t have to wait for November 2026 to win. They plan to win it in 2025, through something he calls The Great Purge, authorized by five corrupt Republicans on the U.S. Supreme Court.
That’s right: before you even cast a vote, millions of names may already be scrubbed from voter rolls. If you’re Black, Latino, a student, a woman who changed her name at marriage, a military service member, or simply someone who moved apartments, you’re already a target.
Let’s break it down:
In the lead-up to the 2024 election, the U.S. Election Assistance Commission reported over 19 million names purged from voter rolls. While many were valid (deceased or moved), at least 4.47 million were blocked from voting due to bureaucratic tricks like 'failure to return confirmation notices,' a tactic voting rights lawyers call 'caging.'
In Georgia, Palast’s team working with the ACLU found that 63.3% of voters purged via caging were wrongly removed. Many were African-American.
Georgia’s GOP Secretary of State proudly doubled down in 2023, targeting 875,000 voters, and that’s just one state.
Thirty states now use an error-ridden system called ERIC for voter purging. Not accurate enough? Trump’s legal henchwoman, Cleta Mitchell, is pushing for a new program called EagleAI, the modern version of the GOP’s 1960s Eagle Eye' voter intimidation operation.If that wasn’t enough, Republicans have introduced the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which would force every newly registered or updated voter to present proof of citizenship in person. And if the name on your birth certificate is different from your passport or driver’s license, you can’t register or vote.
According to Michael Waldman of the Brennan Center, over 21 million Americans don’t have those documents readily available. And 69 million women don’t have their married name on their birth certificate. Many Americans don’t know where their passport or birth certificate is, especially those living in poverty, moving frequently, or serving overseas.
And let’s be clear about the excuse for this law: A racist myth. The Heritage Foundation, pushing the SAVE Act, claims millions of undocumented immigrants vote. But even Kris Kobach, the Kansas Secretary of State who made it his mission to arrest illegal voters, found exactly zero in court. In fact, his law blocked 36,000 legal Kansas voters and was thrown out for being unconstitutional.
And now they’re bragging that they just purged 5 million new names so far this year, according to Judicial Watch.Still, these tactics persist. Why? Because they work."

I won't argue that Dem messaging was absolutely abysmal (I blame the #DNC), but as investigative journalist #GregPalast revealed, if not for rampant #VoterSuppression & uncounted #AbsenteeBallots in states with a #Republican governor/congress, #Harris would have won handily.

TO THE PEOPLE WHO RIDICULED ME for continuing to believe #OrangeHitler STOLE the 2024 #election via #VoterSuppression & tossing #AbsenteeBallots, famous #ElectionFraud documentarian #GregPalast HAS THE NUMBERS.
#Harris should have won 4 of the 7 swing states, 286 #ElectoralVotes (of 270 needed) and the #PopularVote by 1.2M.

Investigative reporter #GregPalast was on @ThomHartmann talking about how the T****-supporting lunatics in #Georgia "are preparing for Civil War 2" if Harris wins there.
They are ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN (despite repeated failed recounts in every swing state by people T**** himself hired) that #Biden "stole the 2020 election" and "the only way #Harris wins is if she does too."
They are using #DRONES over Drop Boxes in black neighborhoods to intimidate voters (but *Biden* is the one who stole GA.) 🤦♂️

You better steel yourself. This documentary is over 1 1/2 hours long. Learn what the latest Jim Crow voter suppression is in Georgia. It's shocking.

Here's the movie homepage for more info (from #GregPalast):

"Our investigator Leni Badpenny was listening in and she began making frantic cut-off gestures, to end a call with him. End it now! “Something’s wrong with him, or he’s just a jerk. I don’t know. But something’s really wrong and you don’t want your reputation destroyed by standing next to him when it goes wrong in public. Promise me we will never work with him, never see him again. I think he’s dangerous. I really do.”
This was difficult for her to say as she never got over being a bit star-struck in his presence. “Look,” she said, “I’m just a little kid from the Swiss Alps and I got to tell my dad I just had dinner with a Kennedy!”
But she insisted, “Stay away from him. He’s become untrustworthy and he’s getting crazier and crazier.”"

> It’s said that behind every great fortune is a great crime. This is the crime, the genesis of the Kochs’ $120 billion empire—and the foundation of the fearsome #KochNetwork, that political Death Star, created solely to keep #CharlesKoch out of prison.
... the rest of the Osage story—right up to today—especially their decades-long battle with #KochOil.
