Y’all, did you know that Trump’s handpicked mail czar has declared that unless states give the Post Office lists of all voters, they just won’t deliver mail ballots. Just…won’t deliver them.

This is of course highly unconstitutional, especially since a federal court ruled today that the executive order underlying the request is …wait for it…unconstitutional.

Still, there’s a couple days left to yell at them about this nonsense and tell them to cut it out. You can do that here:

@MissConstrue Sounds like outright election interference to me, with a wide open invitation for states to file suit.

@MissConstrue My comment: "Your job, as is written in the United States Constitution, is to deliver the mail. Not to verify voters, match against voter rolls, or otherwise interfere in the transmission of a piece of mail from sender to recipient. Any attempts to insert bogus procedures in this process constitutes actionable election interference."

Donnie is in full on panic mode right now and they will do anything and everything they can to fuck with the midterms.

@remywhisker @MissConstrue With what? The cops in the US Marshall's Service are probably loyal to Trump

@MissConstrue Yeah. It's a federal crime to impede the mail. They don't give any shits.

@MissConstrue
an honest question for Human family in 'America':
how far is too far?
the guy is clearly not representing the values America was built on and claims to stand for.
one could argue (hot take) no admin really has (though they at least had the decency to lie about it. to at least pretend to colour within the lines, which often meant actually doing so) since T. Roosevelt.
with some exceptions, ofc.
def since L.B.J. tho, right?
so where's the line?
is anyone thinking exit strategy?

@beeeff there’s a lot of us that would get out of we could. But we can’t, so we stand and we fight. We will not go quietly into the dark night of fascism, but boy howdy, the gop has put all the pieces in play to make it real ugly when it starts.

I think we are witnessing the end of an empire in real time. The collapse will kill untold numbers, all over the globe. The death throes will be will be etched in the granite underlying our origin story.

And it could all be prevented, but the cult is strong with these monsters, and they would kill us all to appease Daddy.

@MissConstrue They won’t stop until forced to. *Sigh*

@yunchtime @MissConstrue Remind them that even the President can be arrested for mail tampering.

@MissConstrue Looks like extortion to me.
