“We speak with Mother Jones voting rights correspondent Ari Berman about the shocking FBI raid on an elections hub in Fulton County, Georgia. Federal agents were seeking records related to the 2020 presidential election, which President Donald Trump continues to falsely claim he won despite his loss to Joe Biden that year. During his efforts to overturn the election results, Trump pressured local officials to “find” him an additional 11,780 votes. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was on the scene Friday despite having no domestic law enforcement authority. The raid comes amid an ongoing federal probe into the 2020 election.
“The fact that they seized 700 boxes of ballots was incredibly disturbing and sets a chilling precedent for how Trump might try to interfere in the 2026 election,” says Berman, who ties the raid in Georgia to the administration’s pressure on Minnesota to hand over voter rolls. “This is now a multifront, concerted effort to try to interfere in the midterm elections.”
By the time the midterm polls open it will be far too late. Nationwide strikes and spending boycotts need to start now, most of the political establishment are allowing him to rig the elections if not actively participating.
When the biggest corporate donors see their net worth free falling each day the strike continues, they will have no choice but to order their puppets in congress to impeach this entire regime.
Without an opposition party a political resistance is a non-starter and the party of Schumers and Jefferies isn’t an opposition party.
Consider exploring other means of resisting whats happening and stop expecting the politics of failure extending from the DNC to result in better outcomes. Don’t expect politics to work.
