Every time there is a major screw up he has a press conference with a stack of heinous new EOs put in front of him by the anti-Christian Nationalists. DIVERSION 101.
1st steps in stopping a #COUP
If You Are a Citizen
Protest/Mobilization: Peaceful protests & mass mobilization can undermine a coup. (April 5th)
Strike and Resist: General strikes, slowdowns, & noncooperation w coup leaders weaken their legitimacy.
Maybe Diaper don should have watched School house rock as a kid. That would have taught him that the states make the rules for elections. If he wants election control on the federal level he will need to eliminate the electoral college.
Just make IDs free and easy to get. And make same day voter registration a thing. Voting without an id is a problem that needs to be solved at the root. Make an ID easy to get.
Why not? Except, that’s the point - the people unable to jump through the hurdles of getting identification and those most likely to be struggling in other ways in life, and oligarchs don’t want constituents who need them to be effective at their jobs voting on whether they should keep their jobs
step up qiuckly, address it publicly, deal with it effectively @smith.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @warren.senate.gov @sanders.senate.gov @aoc.bsky.social @repjasmine.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @fetterman.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov you lot are our checks & balances DO YOUR JOB
He might as well be doing an EO telling China how to run their elections. He doesn't have the authority to make these demands through EOs. That's not what EOs do.
In CA registering to vote is when the Secretary of State and your elections depts decide your eligibility. Period. Thats voter ID. One voter, one ballot. The voter is responsible for that ballot. Period.
That is ridiculous. Requiring Voter ID to vote ensure election integrity. You can't cash a check without an ID. You are making a mountain out of a molehill. No ID = No vote.
Not the same. Registering to vote is voter id. Period. In exchange you get one ballot. YOU are responsible for that ballot. Maybe you voter ID people should be more responsible for yourselves.

This orange dictator wannabe, Krasnov, is trying to beat that.

Time for you to get out there and be just as vocal as @aoc.bsky.social otherwise we are not gonna have a democracy by June
Especially Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard who smirked and stonewalled during yesterday's Senate hearing like it was all a big joke.
Thank god they accidentally included Jeffery Goldberg.
THIS IS SERIOUS.
