The last time we heard Trump on the phone talking to people in Georgia he was asking them, specifically, to find 11,000 votes for him in 2020 and he's in the White House today and not in jail. Anyway.
One more way in which the FBI's search of an Atlanta election office was surpassingly unusual: President Trump spoke to the agents who conducted the search during a phone call afterward.

And impeachments and arrests. Lots.
Real talk: if the environment is anything close to what yesterday’s special election implies in November, there need to be people working very hard on a serious agenda for a substantial Democratic majority in both houses of Congress, focused on voting rights, democracy, and court reform.

It’s pretty fucking wild that the DOJ is releasing files that include accusations that the President of the United States raped underage girls, to distract from the fact that the DOJ is covering up murders of US citizens by their own government.

Good Bill Kristol thread here. He's thinking more clearly than all the Dem reps and some of the posters on here. Ain't nothing changing no matter how much you wish it would
Where we are:
1. With the action in GA, the FBI has been mobilized as part of the plan to steal the 2028 election. And the DNI being on the scene is beyond ominous.
2. After bring chaos and illegality and killings to MN, the ICE assault on that city and others will continue with minimal changes.

Paul Verhoeven's RoboCop is a pitch-black satire of Reagan-era America–it's still a smart, vicious, funny movie almost 40 years later, where the issues it's commenting on have become normalized to a disturbing degree.
