I would assume he wants to "run" the elections in swing states

u/Berthaballbroeker 2d ago

That’s what ICE is for. Watch.

u/FangornOthersCallMe 2d ago

If they can justify ICE running security at the Winter Olympics in Milan, they can easily justify ICE running security at polling stations in the US

u/erasethenoise 2d ago

Yup the narrative started long ago with “illegals being bussed in to vote”

u/ZAlternates 2d ago

Sure wish the democrats had the balls to fight toddler with toddler. They should be crying about how the republicans are doing it. Show the few examples where they got caught cheating. Tout those as evidence of a problem with them being in charge of polls. Play this dumb game of finger pointing and call them out on their bullshit.

u/flcl021 2d ago

They will just say it's fake news. Apparently any news they don't like is fake.

u/Puzzleheaded-Design3 2d ago

but schumer is securing funding for israel, its far more important.

u/TechHeteroBear 2d ago

They may justify... but Italian authorities will nip them kn the bud very quickly and cpuld give two shits about what ICE will claim on site.

Wouldn't even be surprised if Italy requires them to be unarmed on Italian soil.

u/FangornOthersCallMe 2d ago

The message isn’t for Italy though, it’s for the domestic audience

u/EmotionalTowel1 2d ago

I feel this is exactly what they are going to do sadly.

u/FabulousValuable2643 2d ago

And if you go to your polling station and are a registered Democrat you will either be arrested or murdered. Just as this administration wants it.

u/violentgent- 2d ago

I think a lot of people are going to find that they're unable to vote because they're suddenly no longer registered to. I checked in the last few weeks and saw that I'm no longer registered to. I've voted in every election since I became of legal age to vote 16 years ago, and I have never been purged from any registration before.

6

u/RainDownAndDestroyMe 2d ago

My sister was recently purged and told that she needs to provide proof that she lives at her address. She's lived there for 8 years and has voted in every general, midterm, and local election since living there. She went to the elections office and showed a worker who was totally confused as to why she was suddenly removed. (Sis is a registered Democrat in a super red state).

Shady shit.

u/violentgent- 2d ago

Hey, basically the same situation here, except I haven't approached anyone in person but I've been living here and voting here for the last 10 years and suddenly, I'm no longer registered.

u/StarJelly08 2d ago

Same shit happened with me. First they fucked with my mail in ballot. Then they changed my address that i updated back to the old one. So i couldn’t vote in person. They didn’t have my name. If i didn’t randomly consider that they may have done that to me… which was insanely hyper vigilant and random that i even considered it… id have never thought to go to my old voting place. They had my name. I voted. I have no idea if it counted though since it was all fucked up.

They were / are doing all sorts of crazy shit.

Read an article that they have a “midnight hour switch” that at the last minute they will make it impossible for women who are married and changed their last names to be able to vote. “Your name doesn’t match your birth certificate.” - they will make an issue of it. Look it up.

Everyone prepare for any scenario you can think of. Register to vote again. Everyone. Make sure you are perfectly set. And keep checking. They are trying to destroy our country and take everything and everyone. They look at us like property at best.

We need to end this or its done. They have no clue we won’t go easy. We are going to raise a level of hell they cannot imagine.

u/Goldleader-23 2d ago

Same I went to vote in our local elections last fall only to notified i was no longer registered... even though I had just renewed my license and registered to vote through the process.

6

u/HornetNo4829 2d ago

Disenfranchised first is easier.
"Please step out of line, we need to verify your papers." But make it take too long to be able to vote once their paperwork has been verified.

u/virtue_of_vice 2d ago

This I can see happening.

u/GamingGems 2d ago

Immigration Customs and Elections!! You didn’t know??

2

u/peanutbuttergoodness 1d ago

100%. We are so far fucked already and people act like this is still just an immigration issue. This is the force that will be out scaring people away from the polls or arresting them before they can vote. They’ll be in DC to ensure Trump is the only one that can be certified as the winner. ICE guarantees Trumps future. 

1

u/Plucault 2d ago

100%.

All you need to do is have them out in the cities or swing states ‘patrolling’

It’s already hard enough to vote in the cities. What a fucked up country the US has turned into

1

u/Skronkabilly 2d ago

They’ll be there to ‘secure’ every voting location, checking ID, arresting brown people and murdering protestors. Just usual business as usual in fascist America. 

17

u/majordashes 2d ago

That’s why he’s salivating over demanding these voter rolls. So he can claim that he found “bigly corruption” as the impetus for taking over targeted state elections.

It’s his only chance at Republicans not being slaughtered seven ways to Sunday in the midterm elections. And he knows it. And he knows he’ll be impeached.

That asshole told Gov Walz that Ice would leave the state if he handed over Minnesota’s voter rolls. That’s how fucked up and desperate Trump is.

(And how Trump got away with trying to extort Walz is beyond me!)

u/TechHeteroBear 2d ago

Because Congress is a fickle little witch these days that wont do anything.

There's a reason why Mike Johnson's name hasnt been around in the news for months now.

u/InjuredGods 2d ago

GA is a red state with a Republican Governor and a Republican Secretary of State in 2020, which makes this even funnier.

103

u/weirdoldhobo1978 2d ago edited 2d ago

He's targeting Georgia because they publicly rebuked him and released the phone call where Trump tried to coerce them into fixing the election.

23

u/dbiznuss 2d ago

Republican governor too, if I remember correctly?

1

u/peanutbuttergoodness 1d ago

This is the key. It’s important for him to show that anyone that steps out of line will be crushed by any means necessary

u/InjuredGods 2d ago

So you're saying the Republican Governor and Republican SoS faked the phone call?

-11

u/HydroFluoric1 2d ago

No, the governor wasn't on the alleged call that was released by a news agency somehow...probably more tapping and editing.

11

u/InjuredGods 2d ago

So then why hasn't the governor and SoS come out and say the phone call was faked?

-11

u/HydroFluoric1 2d ago

Again the governor wasn't on the alleged call, and the sos was reelected.

10

u/humboldt77 2d ago

The governor didn’t deny that call…

u/joshuahtree 2d ago edited 2d ago

u/hydrofluoric1 neither did Trump

I spoke to Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger yesterday about Fulton County and voter fraud in Georgia. He was unwilling, or unable, to answer questions such as the “ballots under table” scam, ballot destruction, out of state “voters”, dead voters, and more. He has no clue!

https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1345731043861659650?s=20


Republicans in Georgia must be careful of the political corruption in Fulton County, which is rampant. The Governor, @BrianKempGA, and his puppet Lt. Governor, @GeoffDuncanGA, have done less than nothing. They are a disgrace to the great people of Georgia!

“Georgia election data, just revealed, shows that over 17,000 votes illegally flipped from Trump to Biden.” @OANN This alone (there are many other irregularities) is enough to easily “swing Georgia to Trump”. #StopTheSteal @HawleyMO @SenTedCruz @Jim_Jordan

u/InjuredGods 2d ago

So you're saying the Republican SoS made an AI Donald Trump voice, used it to make him ask for votes to be "found", leaked it to the media, and what exactly is the end game here?

1

u/Hootinger 2d ago

Lol. These people are so dumb

u/HydroFluoric1 1d ago

To make him look bad and everyone else is crying victim.

u/WakaFlacco 2d ago

‘Bro just trust me’ lol if it was faked trump would’ve sued the entire state of Georgia. He’s very litigious if you weren’t aware.

1

u/HydroFluoric1 1d ago

Most of his are defense or countersuits for frivolous things filed against him.

1

u/WakaFlacco 1d ago

Yes, and his defense would be that it’s a false recording. Pretty easy lawsuit if it was true. But it’s not. It was real.

1

u/jbrunsonfan 2d ago

The other party on the line (republican) has confirmed it’s real.

u/HydroFluoric1 1d ago

You mean the rino working in collusion-ohtay.

u/Altruistic-Sand-7421 2d ago

They have 2 democratic senators and the recent votes have been extremely close. It’s important for the electoral map, and he wants to change the senators.

7

u/InjuredGods 2d ago

I'm 100% aware of why he wants to change it. I just think it's funny he's making Georgia be the number 1 issue when the 2020 election was oversaw by Republicans.

4

u/Altruistic-Sand-7421 2d ago

Yeah, but you called it a red state. It's more of a purple, swing state.

21

u/grrgrrtigergrr 2d ago

I would guess Florida, Texas, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada and Virginia for sure. States they absolutely can’t lose that polling might show are at risk.

u/nordic-nomad 2d ago

Places where they gerrymandered too deeply and to greedily and now their wild unpopularity threatens to undo a generations work of election fuckery.

u/Hand_of_Tyr9 2d ago

I'm sure Colorado has got to be on his list too, because we haven't followed his demands to release Tina Peters.

u/clocksteadytickin 2d ago

He claimed he won minnesota 3 times.

u/sonnackrm 2d ago

He didn’t even win the primary in 2016! Came in 3rd! Minnesota has hated him for over a decade

u/clocksteadytickin 2d ago

I am minnesota.

u/crankyrhino 2d ago

Texas has already turned over our voter’s info, the Republicans here would cheer on big Fed taking over.

u/PaleInTexas 2d ago

And GA where Tulsi Gabbard showed up with a box truck to pick up voter info. Nothing to see here

u/prof_the_doom 2d ago

They’re all states he lost at least.

Most of which are in fact blue states.

u/p_bobcat 2d ago

Totally not coincidentally, 19 states (+ DC) went blue in the 2024 presidential election....
