Thanks for posting this, Truthhurts.

Here's how this fine, suitably radical if the instigation of stolen elections by this, Gold Palace, er, I mean, WH is obvious.

You know if the Media and the political opposition has the balls to report the illegalities of a Pres who's own DoJ testified under Oath tried to steal the 2020 Election.

And the opposition is upwards of 70% of people/voters; centrists, liberals, rwing former MAGA, progressives, conservative Dems and Republicans... social democrats like myself, socialists, communists (mostly imaginary), yellow dogs, Libertarians (aka former GW voters) Obamites, (no Biden voters, they (we) are almost as an endangered species as former GW voters)...

... you name it, most of them are not now, and many never have been, supporters of the Orange Satan.

The amazing Mr. Hedges starts out

"Chapter 1: Threats to election integrity

"Thank you. Thank you, Scott.

The Trump White House is attempting to put into place a series of mechanisms to fix or invalidate the midterm elections.

Congress, if these mechanisms are enacted, will not save us. The courts will not save us. The Democratic Party will not save us. Our only hope, should the election be rigged or stolen, is nationwide strikes, our only hope is to the machinery of commerce and government.

Although this militancy will be met with severe state repression, otherwise we
are doomed. There will be no exit.

The Trump administration has not succeeded in implementing all its election demands, but it has not abandoned the possibility of declaring emergency powers or martial law to order federal agents to confiscate election materials and ballots.

The Trump administration has already seized ballots from previous elections.

Chapter 2: Data-driven disenfranchisement

(more at the thread link w/ Transcript (which I edited for your lazy asses!)

Power can be used for good or evil and many things inbetween, but 70 percent of people have come to recognize that what we have in the WH now is more than trending evil, it's force that needs to be retconned with... as peacefully as possible, but the People have to realize that their Gov is now, "of, by, and for" the Moneyed Interests, not the People.

Politicians are bought and sold as a Feature of this Money as Speech, Corporate Personhood System, not a Bug.

Want to know a secret? The far right and the far left both agree on that, in general, but the far right has been sold that there are worse things, like Democrats who are secretly Communists... S'trewth!

"It is well documented that there are very few cases of voter fraud. A database managed by the Heritage Foundation, for example, found about 100 instances of non-citizen voting over a quarter century.

But in the factfree world of the Trump White House, hundreds of thousands of
non-citizens cast ballots in 2020, securing Trump's defeat in what Trump

Chapter 4: Discrediting the system

calls, quote, "a crisis of election security".

There is a method to Trump's madness.

These spurious and unverified charges are being weaponized not only to impose sweeping voter restrictions, but to discredit the integrity of the election process.

If the elections go badly for Trump, as many polls indicate, all of these charges will be used in order to order the Department of Homeland Security, which asserts that 278,000 non-citizens are registered to vote across multiple states, to seize ballots and invalidate vote counts, especially in districts where Democrats appear to defeat Republicans.

This discrediting of the election process is accompanied by a slew of other even more fantastical conspiracy theories..."
