January 6th will be fun

lmao no, Biden isn't going to block the National Guard from arresting everyone if people try to attempt a coup again. Enjoy your night in military jail waiting to be handed to the feds.

True. However there would still be incredible violence, bloodshed, and discord. It might be even more chaotic and destabilizing for the nation than it was in 2021.

I would also like to share this story in the Washington Post (arc'd) about how some Republican states are refusing to allow DOJ election monitors in even though that seems like a violation of federal law, but every time I try to post it I get an error message

Unhinged. These people are not well.

Patrick Byrne, the former Overstock(.)com CEO who donated millions of dollars to efforts investigating the 2020 election, warned on Telegram this week of a cyberattack that would rig the election and lead to imminent “death and cannibalism” unless Americans stand together.

I'm so confused as to why citizens are donating in order to help investigate an election.

It's probably Oligarch money.

Trump is on record as being tough on criminals so the cops shouldn't hold back and play nice.
