2. Interesting KO perspective

my take is they are attempting to rally MAGA for November's election, and against No Kings Day. We could see the Insurrection Act within a week. If all that doesn't work for them, they will declare him King after the election at which point he will prorogue Congress until April. They are imploding everything for a reason, to accustom the public to outlandish measures. Think about it, Congress is almost defunct now, as is SCOTUS due to the GOP majority. Our leaders are being targeted, Dems have little actual power. Pritzker has done a masterful job but ICE is freewheeling in Chicago. Leads me to wonder if there is big conflict and power grab ahead. KO is correct, and if they can't pull all that off, they could be cowed by December.

Maybe they will ....... release the Epstein Files?
