In summary, Judge Alikhan granted the extended temporary restraining order and denied the Justice Department’s motion to dismiss. She gave the administration’s lawyers until Friday to file a status report “apprising the court of the status of its compliance with this Order”—which you can read in its entirety here.

If this continues, even the courts can't save us because they will just ignore the rulings.
Ok, all you people that said fascism is exaggerated and would never happen. Trump ignores the courts who is going to enforce? You know DOJ won't do it.

Speak up

The founding fathers really messed up since they put the executive branch in charge of running the DOJ and FBI - the major law enforcement of the nation's judicial systems - they separated the judicial system from the executive branch, but let the executive branch control the enforcers.

Really not very smart of them. The corrupt control the enforcement.

The whole throwing out the votes. Sure a lot of people got purged. But how many cured their ballot? The election experts can’t confirm this. And funny how raging midnight can’t answer purging occurred in blue controlled election boards. But but but Elmo and his computer!!!

That basically confirms to me that the intent is to default on the dollar, and shift the US financial system to a cryptocurrency. Shitstorm doesn't even begin to describe this.

I wonder who would benefit from such a move….

The move to crypto was called out before the election. But I guess eggs matter more 🤷‍♂️

With Ds in the minority the options are limited. However they could withhold all D votes to fund the government in March unless full funding is restored.

Sadly with the current Trump announcement... my fear is that is not the case, but is the case of moving back to the Gold Standard... which Russia has tons of Gold reserves to be mined and US already has tons of it...

First, I wasn't raging, you might want to learn what raging is. What election experts are you talking about? I mean what election experts go contacting millions of people to verify if people cured their votes? It sounds to me you are just trying to discount the fact that their votes didn't count, and trying to place the blame on them, instead of the republican's who illegally threw out their votes.. how do you think these people found out their votes didn't count, if they didn't check? Hell some of the eligible voters, where being purged up to a week before the election in Iowa, which violated 90 day "quiet" period in The National Voter Registration Act. But the SCOTUS didn't care about the law, and ruled in favor of the illegal activiy, when the department of justice took them to court over it in October of 2024. Because you know, 6 of them are nothing more than political hacks manipulating opinions to benefit Trump and the republicans. Many of those people didn't learn they where purged till it was to late.

As for blue election boards: There was nothing to explain because the blue election boards are not the ones who illegally purged or threw out eligible voters ballots. They are also not the ones who targeted minorities, african american's, and such. Which means they are not part of the 5 million votes that where illegally taken out. . It seems that you don't realize that if those 5 million votes where counted, like they should have been, the out come would have been different, flipping those states, and actually depending how purple they turned, possibly creating new swing state as well. There is also Texas, which is turning more purple each election, even with their extreme gerimanding and voter supression tactics, who sued the federal governemnt to prevent federal election monitors from entering polling sites on election day. Why is that? I am not saying that Trump wouldn't have won Texas, and Kamala should have gotten the 1.5 million votes she lost by, but trying to prevent federal monitors from entering polling sites is big red flag.

I find interesting that you ignored that Trump admitted to rigging the election, and go straight to Elmo and his computer.. even though Trump pretty much said that it was Elmo and his computer.. But what ever..
