Another 'pop up!' sort of situation coming at us from the awful trump admin. 🤡😲
The trump admin is literally hinging on every last word that the supreme court makes. All their weight and all of their bets are riding on that US Solicitor General of theirs pandering for the rotten trump admin.
That's what I read just now in that article. This could be a close one, folks. I'm glad that Justice Ketanji is handling the clerk work for this. The "no mention" part from Justice Ketanji is absolutely crucial. If that liberal Justice had been timid such as the way that former justice Anthony Kennedy used to be about these sorts of matters, **then Justice Kennedy if he were still around or another just as pliable Justice would have allowed the trump admin to proceed with their plan in the interim before finally making their ruling** That would have been just uncool for Justice Ketanji or anybody else to attempt here.
The legality or core rules in this proposed executive action are dubious. It was promulgated by MAGA and Trump to appease dumb red voters who believe that stealing real votes from the states which now use mail-in voting is some kind of cool, new idea that's totally acceptable. This is Trump's entire MO: just run with it and to hell with legality, cause some excitement and stir up a bit of trouble within the bureaucracy, and finally Trump will be sure at the same time to BLAME ALL THE RADICAL LEFT "DUMOCRATS" for their genuine dissent regarding this one matter.
I"M HOLDING MY BREATH. The tension with this one is real. We are going to hurt as a nation if that 'lil tinpot autocrat Trump rams this through. In the event this draconian executive action becomes law, all the states with mail-in voting will be slowed down by fresh new bureaucracy from USPS. It will be almost a complete redo of the year 2000 with the misprinted ballots and hanging chads in Florida with probably not just our mid term elections but also perhaps the 2028 election.
