The official WH account has posted another one. This time, a war-porn montage of detonations, with real people dying, pitched in the form of GTA highlights. Off the charts sociopathy.

tweet from Stephen Miller: "It’s not only that the West has had decades of open migration but that it has extended the full voting franchise to migrants. This allows political parties to import their own voters and redistribute the resources of the existing populace."

Chief regime propagandist at it again, pushing the malignant fiction of the 'great replacement' (electoral edition) -- where parties are supposedly importing migrants, en masse, to dispossess the white electorate. Incidentally, this is the exact topic of my recent open-access article (see below).. 🧵

I know I shouldn't be surprised by anything that comes from the Trump regime communication team. But it still seems noteworthy that the official WH account is posting a straight-up IRL war porn montage. Detonation after detonation, set to a banging beat.

Colorado governor likely to grant clemency to election denier Tina Peters, lawyer says Lawyer for Peters says he expects Jared Polis to commute nine-year sentence over voting breach in 2020 election

Remember, kids. Election interference is only when Democrats do it. And legal consequences only for Trump's avowed enemies. This what it means to live in a personalist regime.

And yes. As others have pointed out: all consciously framed in the style of a Call of Duty killstreak montage. Just rank sociopathy.

Replaying all the old tracks from the so-called "Global War on Terror". Which gave license to the nation's highest elected officials to air (loudly and gleefully) the Islamophobic fantasies they harbored all along.

Two tweets from Brandon Gill: “immigration isn’t’ good’ just because it’s legal.” And “no more Islamic immigration”

Two tweets from Brandon Gill: “immigration isn’t’ good’ just because it’s legal.” And “no more Islamic immigration”

This is the GOP, folks. One sitting Congressman tweeting for a full ban on “Islamic immigration” (over 100K likes in less than a day). Another turning up the racism knob on “third world migration”, arguing that Hart-Cellar should be repealed and immigration quotas reinstated. And there’s more. 🧵

And more. Nancy Mace, “just asking questions” about an Islamic immigration ban. And Randy Fine (of course) with “denaturalize and deport. All of them. NOW.”

It is truly one of the cruelties of history that one man, so malicious, damaged, base, and mean could be put in a position to stamp so many human affairs. A living, breathing demonstration that the office of the presidency was a mistake.

Trump, seeking executive power over elections, is urged to declare emergency Activists who say they are in coordination with the White House are circulating a draft executive order that would unlock extraordinary presidential power over voting.

They're putting the pieces in place to allow Trump to do what he has wanted to do all along: large-scale vote suppression, specifically aimed at the 2026 midterms. If not through Congress, through emergency powers secured through the fiction of "Chinese interference" in 2020. 🧵

screenshot: "Trump has said that if the bill fails, he will act unilaterally to impose the changes for the midterms. What that executive order could look like and the draft circulating among activists have not been previously reported.

An early version of the proposed draft, obtained by The Washington Post, cites a 2018 executive order that declared an emergency to impose sanctions on foreign entities targeting election infrastructure. President Joe Biden repeatedly extended that emergency, and in 2024, the Treasury Department used the order to place Iranian and Russian entities under sanctions.
“There is now clear and compelling evidence from court cases and forensic analysis that these threats have not been mitigated but instead have intensified,” reads the proposed draft, dated April 2025. “This constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States.”

screenshot: "“Under the Constitution, it’s the legislatures and states that really control how a state conducts its elections, and the president doesn’t have any power to do that,” said Peter Ticktin, a Florida lawyer who is advocating for the draft executive order. Ticktin attended the New York Military Academy with Trump and was part of his legal team that filed an unsuccessful 2022 lawsuit accusing Democrats of conspiring to damage him with allegations that his 2016 campaign colluded with Russia.

“But here we have a situation where the president is aware that there are foreign interests that are interfering in our election processes,” Ticktin went on. “That causes a national emergency where the president has to be able to deal with it.”

The emergency would empower the president to ban mail ballots and voting machines as the vectors of foreign interference, Ticktin argued."

Straight from the far right mega-influencers. When Democratic elected officials refuse to stand at the President's beck/call, it can only mean "they want to murder every Republican man, woman, and even child". An extremely normal thing to assume that reflects a very healthy political lens.
