But George W. Bush’s “Brooks Brothers Mob” took it to another level exactly 37 years later.
And the MAGA Monster’s attack on January 6, 2021, is far from over.

VICTORY IN ARIZONA, BATTLES FOR NATIONAL ELECTION PROTECTION & ACTION
Amidst the spectacular collapse of the absurd cyber-Ninja Arizona recount scam, we hear from JOHN BRAKEY, STEVE ROSENFELD  and RAY LUTZ on how it happened.
It’s now clear that without their on-the-ground scrutiny and EP activism, Team Trump could easily have conjured up a “revised outcome” very different from what AZ’s voters actually wanted.
Instead Brakey’s insider contacts with honest brokers like Ken Bennet, Rosenfeld’s reporting and Lutz’s techno-audits made it impossible for the thugs and thieves to flip the outcome.
What comes next will be critical as Team Trump attempts to spread fake audit/recounts to whatever states they want to flip.  A handbook/lessons-learned document now becomes crucial from these three great EP pioneers.
Meanwhile, JOEL SEGAL fills us in on the critical growth of the new Progressive Action Coalition and SmartALEC which will be coordinating more on-the-ground campaigns and authoring more legislation as we move forward.

Maybe he (Sen. Joe Manchin) knows the 10th amendment but apparently he doesn't know Article I, Section 4, Clause 1 of the constitution.  The federal government clearly has the right to regulate elections
The Constitution  (1:4:1) Article I, Section 4, Clause 1 “The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing (sic) Senators.”

Yvette Nicole Brown with the Palast Fund presents Save My Vote 2020
A short film, narrated by Yvette Nicole Brown, about Greg Palast’s investigation of the mass "purge" of Americans from voter rolls.
The video aims to warn voters that now is the last chance for most voters to check their registrations—and re-register if they are one of The Purged.
Journalist Palast, whose investigations have appeared in Rolling Stone and the Guardian, said, "Thanks to Yvette, we are sending up this flare:  don’t wait until Election Day to find out you’re missing from the voter rolls.
Young voters and Americans of color have been the main targets of the removal of 16.7 million voters.
