Now I’m paranoid that red states may have already shared this information. But still to what end? Because hey DonOLD won two out of three elections he ran in.

I hope the States simply tell DoJ no. You aren’t entitled to this undo, so pound sand.

I know I’ve said this multiple times, but Trump is not only a sore loser, he’s also a sore winner.

In an unsigned decision, the Supreme Court will decide, without explanation, that the DOJ is temporarily entitled to the voter information, pending a full review that will never come.

Anybody who shares a name with a would-be immigrant should keep their birth certificate handy.
Also, DonOld was heard to mutter that he had been hearing more and more people saying there are monsters under the bed. He plans to tackle that next.

Same. They are seizing (talk to text…sorry) on our lazy society. We’ve crossed the Rubicon. We’re effed. The great experiment is over, and it failed…miserably.

I am hearing that ICE is preparing to deport Elon Musk to Eswatini, Rwanda or South Sudan. His assets are going to be seized and handed over to the organization. The contracts are going to be cancelled.

I am not sure what the controversy is. Most or all state voter rolls are publicly available and can be purchased from data vendors. You can just purchase it from L2, for example. United States Voter Records | Voter Lists

Sadly voters do not yet see what they have done to the best country that has yet existed. I think it is gonna get really ugly before trump’s time is up. I think he will die in office. Sadly I expect full on street battles with automatic weapons on both sides. A lot of death, blood and carnage and it will be on trump. He will be the one responsiblè

The Department Formerly Known As (and For) “Justice” may be collecting these records for (among many other reasons) to look for people with multiple registrations across states. We know, for example, that only one “Juan Sanchez” can be registered to vote in the entire country, regardless if the little rascal signs up with multiple birth dates and social security numbers and middle names.
(thank goodness for us Anglos that there can be any number of “John Smiths”. That just goes without saying, amirite?)
