Pritzker: "He wants to militarize major cities because he wants us to get used to the idea of troops on the streets. I believe he's gonna post people outside of polling places and if he needs to in order to control those elections, he'll assume control of the ballot boxes & count the votes himself"

#31DaysOfGraves day 8: Glass. Martyrs' Monument, Stirling. Margaret (18) and Agnes (13) Wilson were sentenced to death in 1685 for their religious beliefs. Agnes was reprieved, but Margaret, and Margaret McLauchlan, in her late 60s, were drowned at the stake in the rising tide of the Solway Firth

A large glass octagonal memorial with a domed roof. Inside are the white figures of two girls. They have a lamb at their feet and an angel stands over them.
