🚨 FACT: There is a federal criminal law that prohibits any armed agent of the federal government from being at the polls.
There is only one exception. Marc Elias explains.
Follow us to keep watch on the people rewriting the rules.

The U.S. State Department is making a complete fool of itself in front of the entire world.
Seriously? Is this the official account of the U.S. State Department or Donald Trump’s personal fantasy club?
Greenland was NEVER given to the United States. You don’t own Greenland, and you never will.
Imagine being the diplomatic voice of the United States and not even understanding the difference between military cooperation and ownership.
Aren’t you embarrassed to be spreading this nonsense from an official U.S. government account?

Not a surprise. When the "1st Customer" of the IC (POTUS) is uninterested in hearing truth, intent upon revenge, and appears to favor Russian intelligence, none of this should be a suprise. #holdfast
Horrible.
US intelligence sharing has fractured under Trump, officials say

A country's leader, facing growing criminal exposure and increasingly likely defeat, considers refusing to recognize election results, potentially sparking an unprecedented crisis.
The familiar tune is playing out on the global stage again—this time, in Israel, per Ha'aretz. buff.ly/qPrAN5O

House Republicans abandoned their oversight of DHS.
For two years, masked secret police have racially profiled, assaulted, and killed American citizens. Republicans had the power to demand answers. They chose not to.
Today, voters will decide whether they keep their jobs.

NEW: Will County, Illinois, election officials confirm they received Pope Leo XIV’s ballot today, completing the historic first vote cast in a democratic election by a reigning pope in the Catholic Church’s 2,000-year history.
Leo has said Catholics cannot be “unengaged spectators.”
Over the past 18 months, he has clashed with the Trump administration over the Iran war, immigration raids, the death penalty, and climate change. thelettersfromleo.com/p/pope…

Dear @AGToddBlanche: When you betray your oath and try to enforce the rule of trump over the rule of law, you get smacked down. This time by the Supreme Court.
Take your authoritarian shit and shove it.
November 3 elections are coming and you can’t stop it.

💥Shin Bet chief Zini is refusing to turn over to the police (which itself is in Ben Gvir's hands) any material from the probe into an alleged foreign influence operation, is concealing the entire investigation from senior Shin Bet officials and from the Attorney General, and is trying to operate unilaterally vs the Central Elections Committee Chair. #putsch
💥Netanyahu crony David Zini, the improperly installed Shin Bet Chief, who is an integral part of the PM's efforts to cancel the electoral results, now– with no evidence against them– seeks to question 3 leaders of the majority-Arab parties that succeeded so spectacularly in the balloting. #putsch ynet.co.il/news/article/ske2…

Elections must be free, fair, and secure.
We got a serious briefing Sunday night on the Trump/MAGA schemes to cheat, and have made preparations so they don’t succeed at subverting our democracy.

Folks in Westchester County (NY) and Broward County (FL), please stay in line and vote! There are issues with machines in both counties, but your vote will be counted! There are backup contingencies for such issues.

Voting problems in Berkeley County: I just stopped by the Howe Hall precinct. The voting machines are down, and voters are being told to cast provisional ballots. This is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.
I'm on top of it. I spoke with the poll workers inside, and they're confident they're working to fix the machines. I'm also in touch with our legal team at the @scdp and with the Executive Director of @SCHouseDems.
Whatever happens today, don't leave your polling place without voting, even if that means casting a provisional ballot. If you have any trouble voting, call the @scdp voter protection hotline: 855-785-0222.

You can be a slave to Putin or you can be a patriot. You cannot be both.
