Did Jeff McNeely ‘think’ that either he or the police would KNOW what a ‘corrupt voting machine’ would look like?

Regarding the headline, “Looks Ridiculous” should precede “Threatens to Break into Elections Office”, because this idiot looks ridiculous no matter what else he is on about.

Seems like the sort of thing that Archie Bunker would say. A lot of the things that he said were not completely thought through. Is there an implied suggestion?

And I’m sure he’ll detect plenty of fraud occurring among the idle voting machine behind drawn window shades.

There are “Help Wanted” signs in the windows of nearly every damned business in the nation. Media are rife with stories of employers hiking wages, dangling non-monetary incentives, hiring bonuses and other extraordinary means to attract employees. The Feds have ended supplemental unemployment, and many states did so before them, claiming it would drive applicants to find work. Yet this:
There are surely factors depressing hiring, and I suspect the lack of childcare, and/or its high cost, has a lot to do with it.

I get your point, I think, but if there’s a biglier idiot than that one pictured… oh, my, maybe a large asteroid really is the best solution.

Looking at it is just gravy. They KNOW there’s fraud because Democratic candidates won.

Has anyone else noticed that the “Trump attorney” who sent the letter advising the four muchachos not to respond to the subpoena isn’t named? Why? Possibly because advising someone to break the law can cost an attorney his law license? It would be one thing for the muchachos to appear in response to the subpoenas, and then refuse to answer for one ludicrous reason or another (the 5th Amendment would be the most substantive explanation, because insurrection and sedition are crimes), but not appearing at all in response to a lawful subpoena is illegal. (Update: and he isn’t named in either the Politico or the WaPo articles linked to the TPM item. This odd, because usually attorneys will do anything to get their names in the press.)
Don McGahn, by the way, pled “absolute immunity” from responding. The DC Circuit shot down that defense. The Committee and the Justice Dept seem determined not to let this play out forever, so we’ll see what happens.

Can’t speak for @john819 but I believe it’s snark. Even this early.

Attorney-client privilege? So T**** is admitting the DoJ was acting as his personal attorney? But even then they could have reported the plot.

(1) to prevent reasonably certain death or substantial bodily harm;

Mary Beeman thinks her remarks were taken out of context.
“Helping kids of color to feel they belong has a negative effect on white, Christian, or conservative kids,” Beeman commented.
Here is some context, Beeman. White lawmakers who also used “Christian” as a synonym for “white” in Virginia in 1662, since surely non-white people could not be Christian (or conservative, for that matter).
VIRGINIA SLAVE LAWS
December 1662
Whereas some doubts have arisen whether children got by any Englishman upon a Negro woman should be slave or free, be it therefore enacted and declared by this present Grand Assembly, that all children born in this country shall be held bond or free only according to the condition of the mother; and that if any Christian shall commit fornication with a Negro man or woman, he or she so offending shall pay double the fines imposed by the former act.

Reading that reminded me of a Canadian documentary called Rumble. It’s a doc on the vast Indigenous influence on American music; blues, jazz and rock. When talking about Charley Cotten, someone remarked that chances are that most Black Americans have Native heritage because of the intermarriage etc.
