Two big GOP activists from Oregon were in DC last month for meetings with Trump admin officials. On their podcast they talk about a plan they discussed to nullify the results of Oregon's 2026 federal elections. Pass federal voter ID law, then refuse to seat OR delegation because OR didn't comply.

Ep. 18: September to Remember
October 6 • S1 E18 • 44 min
Also, we proposed a idea how to do a end run on vote by mail. Concept is based on what Trump proposed. When you vote, you check everyone's citizenship as well as voter ID.
In a vote by mail state, you might be able to check citizenship during voter registration. You can send copies of your passport and your birth certificate in.
How in the world are you going to check our voters?
Voter ID, right? Vote by mail. So that creates a problem for Oregon.
But if federal government new requirement is to check both, and if Oregon can comply with the requirements, what would happen to our election result? I'm talking about the entire federal delegation.
For federal elections, we're talking about only federal elections.

So entire federal delegation, congressmen and senators could be challenged, could be unseated because you didn't follow federal requirements to elect them. So I said the trade-off is worth it. You know why?
Democrats control two Senate seats out of six congressional seats. We only control one. They control five.
You talk about trade-off, right?
COMMON SENSE

I laughed so hard when A'ja suggested the hoodie-blazer Labubu and hit the PERIOD. My chest hurts!! #WNBA

Meghan L. Hall @itsmeghanlhall.bsky.social · 8h

A’ja Wilson has Labubu a fan gave her.

It has A’One drip and doesn’t have a name, but she says she should give her teammates one and they need a hoodie-blazer one for Becky Hammon.

PLEASE WATCH THIS. 🤣

I asked Jewell Loyd was going through her mind on A’ja Wilson’s game-winning shot:

Loyd, jokingly: “Honestly, defense … just next play.”

Becky Hammon on the last play: “Who gets the ball to A’ja. Get out the way.”

Wilson says it wasn’t even a play. Says she’s grateful that Hammon trusted her.
