Nearly every elected Repugnican in DC shares responsibility for this wanton assault on democracy. A unified, vocal, persistent opposition party attaching this predation to every NAMED Repugnican could be really useful about now.
We’re both old enough to recall that Mitch McConnell wasn’t exactly ineffectual as a minority leader. Democrats might well embrace his example, albeit for considerably more democratic reasons. Complying in advance hasn’t worked.
Not exactly sure what you expect them to do. They speak but cannot control in a minority position. Do you want fist fights in Congress? We have had them in the past. Every Democrat should refer to his or her Republican opponent as a person with their hands tied by MAGA and Trump. Weaklings who will not stand up to enforce the Constitution.
Democrats can obstruct, they can boycott Trump's insane SOU ramblings, they could raise hell and defend Rep Greene, they can stop acting civilized and fight fire with fire, that's what the Republicans do. Taking the high ground has cost us our democratic Republic and enabled MAGA and Trump to throw feces on the Constitution
They could start by pressuring the DNC to release its post-mortem report. But I expect Schumer and Jeffries would have trouble doing that, since the report says a large part of the reason Democrats lost in 2024 was their failure to disavow support for Israel.
Thnanks Daniel,but I think you would agree,there is real disappointment that only 8 million showed up for the " NO KINGs " across the country n 3200 locations.This is a about the same as October 2025. The message,a very large # of Americans believe having a " Nazi" gov't is OK. It also reveals that of the 75 Million Dems and Independents who voted for Harris ,only 8 million are willing to get engaged.The 67 million have decided their life is good enough,they will not expend any effort to get out there.
Divide and conquer bullshit. Not when "your" side is the gift of the enemy.
We need honest and uncorrupted leaders with backbones, Not fearful ones on the take from PAC's.
If Hakeem was not on the take ffrom AIPAC, Met Life,Black Rock, maybe
Glack Rock, founded and CEO Larry Fink, is one of the institutions that have onwership in the media, defense, pharma, petroleum and every segment of America.
You can serve two masters Daniel.
Chuckie didn't hold the ground,k voted for the OBBB and now Good and Ptetti are dead, and thousands of families disrupted, and some even sent to Nigeria.
Divide what? I want leadership.
Maybe you are satisfied with our descent into fascism because of corrupt or cowadly leaders.I am not
Eadie,thanks for the terrific pictures and all the support from the LA area. It was disappointing to most of us who have been around since the 1st No Kings,in that we fully expected 11-13 million especially with everything that has transpired since last October. My complaint has been since last October,that a very large segment of DEMs and Independents refuse to get involved.
A "Police State" is what happens when a majority of the majority race ignorantly breaks for an obviously unfit Russian operative just because he hates Blacks and Browns.
It's a horror, yet and still, ICE and Border Patrol will have to "Good and Pretti" about 35 innocent voters as they stand in line to vote, to cower enough of the masses, for the American Idiot to win.
We'll have to be video recording their homicidal mania, remaining cool, and not be shattered by Trump's goons' Hegsethian "lethality," then we have to call the local authorities [who should be monitoring the goons with rooftop snipers,] who get paid to protect us.
America is fast becoming - The People’s Republic of Equatoria from the TV series: "Mission Impossible."
Vote . . .also:
#Send Too Tall Boron (sp = deliberate) and his idiot brother Eric to - The Bab el‑Mandeb Strait
Except at that point it will be too late, the intimidation will have been done. We need to get ahead of this and make sure it doesn’t happen. We need protection for voters.
Despite frequent denials, history does repeat, though rarely as precisely as Trump's NAZIfication of America has been progressing.
Like Thom, I have quite a few German and Austrian friends. I grew up in a German immigrant farming village outside Chicago. My BFF in grad school for over half a century is a German. I visit Europe annually. My spouse and I even have a summer house in the EU.
Over many decades, I chatted with the late parents of countless Boomer friends about what life was like in the Third Reich. The tales were always surprisingly similar. Nobody saw it coming. They viewed Hitler as a dufus and his mob as working-class losers. Nobody takes clowns like Kristy Noem, Mike Lindell, MTG, Boebert, Bannon, and Johnson as serious threats to Democracy.
Adolf chipped away at minority rights, Jews especially, because they were unpopular and there was little sympathy for the abuses they were suffering. Over time, the ICEing of police and being stopped to show your "papers" became a routine part of NAZI life. Eugenics, notions of biological superiority among "real" Germans, helped justify minority marginalization. Then one day, Germans got woke that they too had been marginalized - "Jawohl, mein Führer."
Most people thought Hitler would not last long. But then he started invading countries and used war powers to cement imperial rule. Hitler's fall took 10s of millions of casualties with him, as Trump is on the verge of doing.
Nixon cracked down on blacks and "hippies", purportedly to crack down on drugs, but in actuality to punish those who protested during the 1960's and crush the voter activism of the Left. Now it's the same idea, different rationale (immigration, but linked to crime), and different tactic (ICE, not DEA).
Great idea to double check that nothing has changed in our own voter registration. I just checked mine. Thanks for that link. In states that do not have vote by mail and in communities with large black and latino populations, we may need to organize escorts or even ballot collection and drop off efforts. I know I'd travel to help collect and deliver ballots in a state where ICE intimidation was being deployed.
Just like the legal eagles that have educated everyone on what to do if you are stopped, tracked or harassed, we need teams around the country that educate voters on their rights.
A what to do list and a what not to do list will be helpful. A massive NO KINGS centered on this theme could be very helpful. That would get the press coverage needed.
It would be something oriented to your own state's laws. What is permissible as far as cameras are concerned? Can you take a pic of your ballot and post it? Can we film the ICE officers at the polls? How could we act as "escorts" for those needing extra help or confidence?
The time to fight back with knowledge is now. Thanks Thom and Company and Greg Palast for your vast work on this subject! See you in the streets.
The answer to this, if the states don't want to interfere with the feds, is to take down the ICE sentries standing at the entrances to the polling places and zip tie and gag them. Leave them in plain site where everyone entering the polling place can see them. Maybe even put a sign up telling people that they don't have to be intimidated anymore. Then, when the voting is closed. they can be let go to run back their bosses to whine and cry that they were picked on.
Now, we all know that is not likely to happen but the states can treat them like the rest of the vendors who show up to hand out flyers. They would have to maintain a certain distance from the entrance. In Virginia, where I used to work as a poll worker, it's twenty feet out and wide of the main entranceway. Maybe they should be shadowed by local law enforcement to make sure they don't do anything to illegal to registered voters?
The states have to figure out ways to stand up to these federal paramilitary forces. Voting is a state run function and the feds have little jurisdiction, if any. If they don't, we're going to have chaos next November.
From NYT. States can point to one win they scored late Friday: A federal judge imposed a 14-day pause for Nexstar’s merger with its rival TV station owner Tegna, a week after Nexstar announced the deal’s closing.
The Nexstar-Tegna deal has been caught up in political cross hairs. Trump has thrown his support over the agreement, writing on social media in February that it would “help knock out the Fake News” and to “get that deal done!”
Brendan Carr, the chair of the F.C.C., approved the deal this month, after waiving a cap on national station ownership. Carr’s approval came a day after California and New York participated in a lawsuit to block the measure.
States have targeted other antitrust matters, including Paramount’s planned takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery and the unexpected settlement of the Justice Department’s lawsuit against Live Nation.
But while state attorneys general have helped halt deals before, including Kroger’s takeover of Albertsons, challenging the federal government can be tough, given their more limited resources. The ruling in the Nexstar-Tegna case shows that even if states can’t block a deal, they can at least create uncertainty.
That creates an interesting dynamic. Could companies offer significant enough concessions to avoid pressure from state attorneys general? (That tactic wasn’t used in the Live Nation settlement.)
The Justice Department has begun to send out subpoenas to Paramount competitors to study the competitive impact of the Warner Bros. Discovery deal. Would the impression of a robust investigation, and perhaps even a mild remedy like some kind of behavioral decree, from the department reduce the prospects of a successful challenge from the states?
Democrats need a counter to the SAVE Act. I propose The Right to Vote and have your Vote Counted Act. Any voter who has any issue to vote should have the right to vote by provisional ballot. We have that right now but I would make one very specific change. Now all the burden is on the voter to cure their issue or the vote is throw out. I would put the burden on the government to prove that the voter committed voter fraud to throw out the vote. The Government already has all the data to prove citizenship or eligibility. The election officials should not have authority to throw out any vote but can only refer them for a criminal investigation. Voter fraud is a crime so it should require a serious investigation. This would target voter fraud instead of the SAVE Act objective of voter suppression. Once and for all we would have clear information on how rare is voter fraud. This should deter Trump and his supporters from making false claims of mass voter fraud.
In 2019, Democrats in the 116th Congress introduced and passed two major pieces of legislation aimed at expanding voting rights and reforming elections. While both passed the House of Representatives, they were not brought to a vote in the then Republican-controlled Senate.
Wikipedia
H.R. 1: For the People Act of 2019
Introduced in January 2019, this was a massive, 800-page "democracy reform" package. It passed the House on March 8, 2019.
Voting Access: Required states to offer automatic voter registration, at least 15 consecutive days of early voting, and same-day registration.
Gerrymandering: Mandated the use of independent redistricting commissions to draw congressional districts, aiming to end partisan gerrymandering.
Election Security: Promoted the use of voter-verified paper ballots and increased federal support for voting system security.
Ethics & Finance: Overhauled campaign finance laws to reduce the influence of "dark money" and established new ethics rules for all three branches of government.
U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar (.gov)
H.R. 4: Voting Rights Advancement Act of 2019
Later renamed the John Lewis Voting Rights Act following his death in 2020, this bill passed the House on December 6, 2019.
New Democrat Coalition (.gov)
VRA Restoration: Aimed to restore the preclearance provision of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which had been struck down by the Supreme Court in Shelby County v. Holder (2013).
Discrimination Formula: Established a new, modern formula to identify states and localities with a pattern of voting discrimination.
Federal Oversight: Required jurisdictions with a history of violations to get Department of Justice approval before changing their voting laws.
The only possible reason for Immigration Enforcement to be at the polls would be if non citizen immigrants might be voting. They won't be so the reason for them being there is to frighten away legitimate voters. Immigrants fearing deportation do not register to vote. Second generation immigrants always speak two languages. Their parents are more comfortable in the language they learned as children and often their children interpret for them. This is the case with immigrants from Europe or immigrants from south America.
A clearly dangerous thing to do in the face of all of this, but perhaps necessary, is for private citizens in areas of high poor, non-white, blue voters to form groups to escort nervous people to the polls. Preferably young males, a lot of white ones especially, and armed if need be in open carry states, so the ICE thugs will know they will not win the intimidation game. Will there likely be incidents, some violent, if this is done? Almost certainly. Will there be MAGA plants to foment violence? Undoubtedly. But done properly, there is NOTHING ILLEGAL about such a strategy. If it will help prevent the fascists from winning, and give Bannon, Miller, and the felon in chief heart attacks. all the better. They are richly deserving, after all.
Once more you brought up and emphasized important points that need to be remembered.
Also, participation in our system is a right and privilege that many have taken for granted in the past. Now, that these rights are being threatened so blatantly, maybe people who were too busy or uncaring about politics will wake up and actively take interest and choose to fight back while they can. Or, at the very least, stop listening to FOX, NEWSMAX or commenting on X.
Freedom, over the centuries, has been fragile at best, and now our rights are being actively spit on by this administration and the Republican Rep’s and Senators.
The middle class is being decimated and more and more are falling into poorer income brackets. And, clearly what we have built up after WWII in the way of protection for those who are not even millionaires, much less billionaire or trillionaire wealth, is being tossed out of the window so fast we can hardly keep up.
I believe they’re threatening to kill the vote, not because they can, but because they want people to believe they can do it. To makes voters apathetic, thinking “Why bother to vote if they’re gonna rig it?”

Herding Democrats is like herding cats. Unlike the Republicans, we are bottoms up.
You guys are good examples. Refuse to support the party. You really have no clue how it works -- or doesn't - in Congress.
BTW, now that McConnell is no longer maj leader, Thune has trouble with 5-6 Republican votes.....
Led by Hakeem and Chuck? Yeh sure. Fuck blueprints, action is what counts.
Alligator muths, humming bird asses.
Good and Pretti and thousands of people victims of Chuck's leadership.

You get a choice of 2. MAGA Mike and Jeffries. Who do you choose?
BTW Jeffries voting record, his support is Dem.
False assumptions. Not an election.
Dem politicians were working the crowd for support.
Like I said yesterday, if it were up to me, the protests would be at the homes of Congressional Republicans.
Most MAGATS are OK with war, with ICE murders and Gestapo tactic, with restricting votes, but not OK with being identified with preverts.
4 levels of culpability: 1. perps 2. pimps 3. those who did business with criminals 4. those who obstruct.
At 88 I am unsteady on my feet and avoid ALL crowds. I do what I can online.
Margaret,thank you so much for being involved. It is important for all of us to recognize that many are doing what they can.
Robert Hubbell disagrees with your assessment of No Kings 3.0.
