"…As I read this article, I get more and more convinced that this is exactly what is going to happen between this move of of putting in place loyal electors and getting your SCOTUS aligned more conservative. I think this is the chess game that is being played to win this election. I don't think the people's vote is going to matter. I'm seriously coming to believe that.…"

"…Everything seems to be rigged in a particular way to suit particular people. And I just wish that we could all do more. But I am struggling to think of ways in which we can do that.…"

"…And if it goes all the way to the Supreme Court with the conservative Supreme Court that will be held. So this is just information that I wanted to post based on what I heard from somebody who's in this. And I know that this has the Democratic Party quite worried.…"

Bill to not count all the votes... https://bit.ly/330pbKq

"…We'll go down the Xi Jinping path, I think, because this kind of disregard to a government that is for the people and by the people I have never seen in any form of democracy.…"

"Overseas voter" here. Lost. @sudha https://app.swell.life/swellcast/1YzT

"…I'm so glad you reposted this Sudha. I hit reply and poof the original was gone. I feel like an entire book maybe wouldn't be enough to cover all of the absolutely crazy things that have been happening. I have no words anymore. I attempted a swell the other day that was inspired by this original post, attempting to gain it in a different way. How can we counter what's going on? I think it was titled Something Along the Lines.…"

"…And the hospitals in Israel, everything got mobilized because they were going to just be decimated. It was called the Second Holocaust. And this is 967 right after the independence. And on June 5, Israel did one preemptive strike. And in that moment, everything went haywire. The world looked upon this battlefield, this stage of destruction and saw something that no historians to this date can account for. Basically, in six days, this war was won by Israel.…"

"…You know, every day there seems like there's another couple of things that seem to really undermine sort of our historical precedents, the United States. And it's concerning to me because it really feels like the Republican Party is kind of out for blood at the moment. They're really trying to kind of not just be like, okay, let's wage your war of ideas and talk things out and then try things out.…"

No Way does Jose' s....vote count this Election!

"…We got to be aware we got to keep our freedom because it is on the line when they even tamper with the notion that they are not going to have an election like Trump is doing. That is some scary stuff that's not a democracy that's complete control and completely insane that we would even allow this period after period after period of time goes by and we keep losing our freedom and we're just allowing it. Do we think that these masks are going to protect an airborne virus? No.…"

Not even on my list. @RobbinMilne

"…I mean, you mentioned yourself the California primary and taking close to a month. That was the primary, and that was only the state of California. And that also doesn't include ballots coming in from around the world, from different Americans in different places. And then there are the comments that Trump makes about whether there will or will not be a peaceful transfer. He said to throw out the ballots, and it will be peaceful because there won't be a transfer. It's things like that.…"

How it came across to me. @RobbinMilne https://bit.ly/342EMZs

"…Regarding the article, I can only find one of the links which I will include here. It references The Atlantic with a very long article and you can take it for what it is or isn't.…"

No need. @RobbinMilne

"…No worries, Robin. No need to reply. I think you said it right there. We were both expressing our opinions that's all that needs to be said.…"

Who enforces the so called "Rules" on the Rule Makers?

"…Yes, I understand what you're saying, but who's going to enforce the Constitution when they're already in office running the show? I understand that these rules are set in place, but this is complete anarchy. There is no rules and regulations anymore. It is whatever they want to do. I mean, we have a President in office who lies on the Daily. So what possibly could anybody think that he's going to follow the rules and regulations for this is the problem.…"
