Even when Kamala Harris

wins in November and is

sworn in January 2025, our

work, the People's work is

not done. If this election has

taught us anything, it's to pay

attention to both houses of

Congress and make sure they

reform some of these laws

and pass others of vital

importance. All of these

representatives, both houses,

serve the PEOPLE! That's

something we've lost sight of

as our responsibility to our

country and each other.

Trump will abuse any law on the books to gain him totalitarian power. Let's not forget how he wanted to use the Insurrection Act to pit the military against the American people during the peaceful George Floyd protests he deemed unacceptable: famously saying to Secretary of Defense Esper, he wanted to deploy the military to shoot protestors in the legs. And we must not forget the Comstock Act of 1873 - another of his favorites to criminalize the distribution of mifepristone, the widely used medication sent via US mail, used for medication-induced abortions. This is what dictators do, and he must not be reelected!

If, and this is a big IF, tRump gets elected and tries to use these terrible laws there will be an uprising by those of us who voted against him. We will not allow him to round up fellow citizens and abusing their civil rights.

Yes, but remember he commands the military and has vowed to take military action against the people. Unprecedented here, but possible under a fascist regime.

These laws seem irrelevat. If Trump rounds up and deports immigrants under any pretence, legal or not, our corrupt SCOTUS will agree with him that his actions are official acts, immune from criminal prosecution.

Unfortunately true....

Let's call the successful prosecution of the orange traitor 'Project Accountability' and finally make him pay for all his crimes. Unless, of course, he keels over dead after he loses the election, and the whole sordid affair gets buried on a golf course.

Then, Congress can get to work FIXING problems and getting rid of centuries old laws that are used as weapons.

Of course that is if he loses the election. If he wins it and keels over after, we get Vance along with a rogue Supreme Court - and possibly Mike Johnson as VP. All of this making the case: Harris & Walz MUST Win!

And will this Congress , solely for the improper investigation of Democrats , yielding no evidence, take care of these horrible unconstitutional laws?
