Nationalize Elections?

[jstell]

I don't think so.  But at least we're starting to be honest that the goal is a one-party system.  Undivided, with corruption for all.

I don't think they need to be nationalized, Each state can administer their own elections. However I do think they could codify national law that makes them more secure.

[Bucky Cornstarch]

As long as Trump can continue to convince the dim witted amongst us that elections are not secure, and that the only reason the right loses elections is because of fraud, this will continue to have traction.

And five years after his own AG told him he was full of shit wishful thinking.

Barr told the AP that U.S. attorneys and FBI agents have been working to follow up specific complaints and information they've received, but "to date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election."

Corruption for all (of them) Fiss.
But remember when Schwab said this will be the last election....

I haven't heard that.

Seems like some 2A warriors should be taking on the tyrannical government by now

Schwab said this will be the last election

I haven't heard that.

I wasn't sure what he was referring to either.
This is the AI summary for a search (of the quoted phrase above) :

Based on available information, there is no evidence that Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum (WEF), has said that any recent or upcoming election (such as 2024 or 2025) will be the "last election."
Misinformation Context: Claims suggesting global leaders are declaring the end of democracy or elections are frequently spread as conspiracy theories online, often misrepresenting the goals of the WEF's "Great Reset" or "stakeholder capitalism" initiatives.
Search Results Analysis: Searches for quotes from Klaus Schwab regarding "last election" yield no credible results.

There was same interview he did where he said 2026 would also probably be the last UK election too - it was a couple of years ago - prolly halfway through the Buyed-In era when he was also banging on about more global ties with nations/countries etc.

Even Fox can't bring itself to get behind this dumb idea, simply reporting that the congressional leaders aren't on board.  The truly chilling thing is that he's quoted multiple times not just saying he wants to federalize elections, but that the republicans should take over elections.  One party, undivided, with corruption (and maybe gold statues) for all.

I'd laugh my ass off if the Dems came out with their own version of project 2025 for a future presidency. I guess the SCOTUS would have to be on their side and as willing to accept bribes for left leaning policy as they are now for right. Something tells me a leftist president will be the end of the shadow docket and rubber-stamping an agenda for a period.

First, round up all these MFers and ship them off to some banana republic they can pretend to run.  Maybe Little St. James.  Except the orange turd.  He needs a personalized set of golden handcuffs, and maybe a S/M dungeon ball-gag with matching gold lock.
Then, universal health care paid for by Bezos and Musk, just for fun.
Raise the minimum wage so that EIC and other benefits can be greatly reduced - right now this is just another corporate subsidy by the middle class.  The government making it so folks can live, while keeping corporate profits up for the investment class.
UBI for the AI job displacement that will become just another corporate subsidy without gov't action to keep folks from starving.
Let's see... am I forgetting anything?

edit:  Probably also have to make an executive order requiring Fucker Carlson to have his tongue pierced and then looped to a chain with the ends screwed to each of his big toenails.  I'm pretty sure that's fair.  At least he'll be earning his puppy-dog eyes.

Brother, does it not suck spending all day thinking about orange man?

[Newbeeee™]

First, round up all these MFers

To be clear, you're talking all of them, both "sides"?
And their handlers?
