💙 the name of the proposition! This might very well work in Blue States, but, as we can see with the recent overturning of Section 2 of the VRA, in a case brought from LA, a State known for extreme racial fu[%ery, the goal is to suppress or eliminate enough of the vote of minority groups so as to render their voices mute, to make the votes of minority groups, including women, to be not worth the effort to cast them. Yeah, we appreciate the efforts to protect voting districts in places like Detroit & Chicago, both Blue Northern cities, but, what can be done to protect the votes of Democratic & minority citizens in Southern Red States? What is the proposed tactic for that scenario?
You might be surprised. People in red states are not all exactly pleased with the way these situations are playing out. Veterans may not allow anyone to try to intimidate the voting populace.
It must be backed up by local police presence nd the mandate to arrest ICE agents. It’s going to be a mess. Im from a safe state of CT so i will likely drive to New Hampshire to work for a candidate.
Trump says no thank you to $10 Billion from his DOJ; Just set up a ~$2 Billion slush fund for my convicted fraudsters & violent insurrectionists. Gym Jordan: America's not America if you have a Justice Dept that is political. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KGORP-lgIUM
Trump & Co project corruption & fraud everywhere while promoting/pardoning hate groups, starting wars of choice & trashing economies. The Golden Age?
Resist the authoritarianism of the MAGA gangsters & grifters! VoteBlue!
This is wonderful news Miles! I went to my local primary and when I got there I have friends and neighbors working who know me, however, they go through the process to a TEE. I would hate to have that polling place surrounded by ICE Agents because they aren't supposed to interfere in elections no matter what and if they do they SHOULD be arrested for election interference! VOTE BLUE!
This is great news, I’ve been concerned about that, hopefully they’ll abide by this! Miles this is absolutely wonderful how you’ve stepped up and took control of helping the ppl from the trump criminal regime. Miles trump et.al really put you & your family through hell, but you still kept doing what you felt needed to do, YOU ARE A TRUE PATRIOT! Never forget how much we appreciate you and all the sacrifices your family & you endured to help the ppl and democracy, MILES, WE’RE FOREVER GRATEFUL !
I support the coalition of district attorneys, but I wonder if local law enforcement will actually move to arrest federal forces when charged. That interaction was cloudy several months ago when ICE went after a suspect in South Burlington, VT. It was clear the the local and state police were uncertain about their role in that encounter when ICE was acting illegally.
I agree, and I think our legislature is working on a bill to allow victims if Ice/Federal violence to sue in state court - which will be litigated by the feds. But I don't think we're drafting legislation to define local police powers to protect polling places. And we have a govrenor who would probably veto any such bill, oy!
Will police arrest the J6er militias on the spot as people try to vote? Why can't ICE be arrested on the spot? After voting day won't matter; the damage will have been done. Not sure if local police are for or against democracy in red states.
And if he does send them to the polls you damn well better put them in jail. They don't belong at the polls- or any place else on our streets for that matter!
Way to kick ICE, Miles and fellow Defiance members!! My friend and I are in the process of signing up to be poll observers for the November election! 🕊️
Isn't it against the Constitution to have officers at a polling place? I'm happy that some of these DA's have more of a backbone than any of the republicans in Congress.

I truly the same FAFO would apply there as well.
It would apply but the red states would not use it. They would allow the intimidation to keep voters away.

Trump & his entire cabal are criminals. They all belong in prison.

Every State Government needs to make it crystal clear to the police what their roles are before Election Day.

I believe our State will do it! Hope I’m right!

Trump will not put ICE at the polls, but he will continue to say he will to try and scare voters away.
Encouraging.
Thank you so much Miles.
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!
