They also can’t guarantee Trump won’t shit himself before the top of the hour.

    Then I "can't guarantee" that I won't show up to the polls with a fucking flamethrower

    So...they "can't guarantee" that they won't break the law? Because sending any kind of federal law enforcement agents to polling places would be highly illegal.

    This administration has proved time and again they dont care if something is illegal, they will do it and get away with it.

    They'll "try". But they will eventually get blocked. The problem is that it can take time to go through the courts, before they get shut down...and elections aren't going to wait. State legislatures need to shore up their own legislation in advance. That way the decisions have already been made, before they try.

    this is why they won't say they will because that has a chance of causing congressional or legal action.

    ICE is going to be INTIMIDATING Democrat Voters? Wow! They MUST Need some Funding for that! Let's GIVE it to Them!

    -Chuck Schumer (D) and Hakeem Jeffries (D)!

    But they can guarantee that they are doing it.

  • This is the same Whitehouse that argues that congressionally controlled independent agencies are under direct presidential control? And now they can't control ICE.

    Can't guarantee because that is when they are doing their dry run on it.

    They aren’t in control of ICE? There will be ICE wherever it wants to be? I would be ashamed to admit that I had so little control over my private army.

    "and early exit polling shows that 100% of democrats have been arrested, 100% of 3rd party voters have been deported to Guantanamo bay, and 100% of white republicans have received a 50% tax increase. Mail in voting from the ruling class has seen a 100% turnout for republicans with a 20% tax cut!"

    Such wins for amerika

    Hate groups go to intimidate Black and LGBTQ+ voters… and they know exactly how close they can get. They can’t go in but you still have to go through them to get in. Should be illegal but you know what Rage Against the Machine said about the ones who burn crosses…

    Let’s see. There’s supposedly about 30,000 ICE agents. There were 95,000 polling places across the US in 2022. That’s 0.3158 ICE agents per polling location. Talk about impotent….

    This is a threat to people who can’t do the math.

    How many polling stations are there in solidly blue areas?

    If I needed to intimidate people into not voting but I only had 30,000 brownshirts I would just be very selective about where I send them, where they'll have the most impact. Sending one anywhere isn't going to do anything, it needs to be a large visible presence in order to more effectively spread that fear.

    I bet 30,000 ICE agents at the "15 or so" places where Trump needs a better handle on the voting would be enough to change people's minds about being there. Or maybe even stir up the base to have them come out and "help" the ICE army "monitor" the process. It feels like anything is on the table at this point.
