"Thus far, four Trump supporters have been arrested for cheating.

There’s Danielle Christine Miller, charged with two felonies for casting a vote in her dead mother’s name for Trump.

There’s Larry Lee Savage Jr, who stole two ballots during a test run of voting machines in Indiana."

At Least Four Trump Supporters Arrested for Cheating - emptywheel

Thus far, at least four Trump supporters have been arrested for cheating. And the Supreme Court seems poised to help Trump cheat.

"There’s Val Biancaniello, who was arrested for disorderly conduct after allegedly harassing voters in a line in Media, PA.

And there’s Caleb James Williams, who harassed early voters in Neptune Beach, FL waving a machete.

In addition, an unaffiliated racist, Nicholas Farley, was arrested in West Palm Beach for yelling racial and antisemitic slurs at voters (I’m not counting him as a Trump supporter because he was intimidating Republican voters too)."

"Trump, predictably, is claiming that others are cheating.

And the Republicans on the Supreme Court permitted Glenn Youngkin to continue purging voters, including some citizens, from voting rolls in violation of the National Voter Registration Act. [Corrected the law in question.]

Update: A Chinese Green Card holder who is a U Michigan student has also been charged, for illegally voting."

"The U.S. Supreme Court’s conservatives on Wednesday morning issued an order allowing Virginia’s late voter-purge program to go back into effect.

The Republican appointees gave no reasoning for their decision. The three Democratic appointees to the court only noted that they would have rejected Virginia’s request."

SCOTUS conservatives allow Virginia's late voter-purge program to go back into effect

A stark reminder that this Supreme Court is not interested in being and will not serve as a guardrail for democracy.

"Not that we needed it after this past term’s decisions relating to Donald Trump and January 6, but Wednesday’s order is a clear, stark reminder that the Supreme Court, as currently composed, is not interested in being and will not serve as a guardrail for democracy."

@wdlindsy What's the opposite of 'guardrail'?

[moralcompass@toad.social]

@wdlindsy It's complicated, right?

It appears conservative SCOTUS is actually "an Int'l. Mob," who've infiltrated & took over Fed LE/FBI/DOJ.

I say this BC, in 2019/2020/2021, Ginni Thomas was instrumental in taking down FBI/DOJ who were not sympathetic/looking out for Trump. Her target lists were worked on by Sidney Powell, James Kasson & Charles McGonigal, long-time Trump/Giuliani friends. Kasson said to have been friends w/Roy Cohn.

If SCOTUS has become the Mob, noone has oversight, right?

@MoralCompass If SCOTUS has become the Mob, noone has oversight, right? Yes, that sounds right to me.

@tersenurse I like the clever response of @tirrimas!
