Today, I wrote 120 voter registration postcards to OH and WI (mostly WI) voters today. Mailed the first 55. Mailing in the morning the rest and whatever I can get done the rest of the night and before work. Turn your election-related anxieties into productive activism!

So we have our first apples-to-apples polling comparison by a reputable pollster: 7/1 Morning Consult | Trump 44, Biden 43 (Trump +1) 6/28 Morning Consult | Trump 44, Biden 45 (Biden +1) This is not a meaningful change.

I did not say a President had immunity 🤷‍♂️ I did not say scotus opinion is lawful. 🤷‍♂️ SCOTUS is there to decide controversies according to the Supreme law which is by the People.

SCOTUS did not overturn the guilty verdict, only enforcement

Clarence Thomas unquestionably committed tax fraud on his motorcoach deal and the president has the power to put him in handcuffs this afternoon, in his official capacity in charge of the IRS and federal law enforcement

Also found guilty of insurrection by Colorado Supreme Court. (SCOTUS didn’t change the verdict, just said a state can’t enforce a14 s3)
