Ogre Note: DERP goes the Ogre! Thursday’s upload was broken, and since I was offline the rest of the day except for a few quick notes, I didn’t realize. That was sloppy of me, and I apologize. The full episode has been uploaded, I swear!, and it’s all good now.
Donald Trump will not be able to use the United States Postal Service to rig the midterm elections. That was his last, best hope to legal steal our votes and keep his party of Nazis and pedophiles in power. The pressure Trump has put on the USPS to act illegally is so intense, his handpicked Postmaster General wants to quit.
With this last avenue closed to him, Trump will be forced to resort to desperate and ham-fisted measures. They will be so obviously illegal in nature, none of it will work. But everyone involved will be exposed to severe legal jeopardy. Democrats have a window of opportunity to nuke the fascist movement from orbit by having their state Attorney General press charges against every single fascist fuck that dares to touch a ballot or harass a voter.
Make the fascists absolutely paranoid that coming within 30 miles of the 2028 election will land them in prison for 20 years. Make the lawless afraid of the rule of law again. That’s how we start to take our country back.
