Once again, the Founding Fathers were very deliberate with their design around elections.
They wanted a DECENTRALIZED SYSTEM WITH CONTROL BY THE STATES.
With some input by Congress.
They are attempting to FEDERALIZE ELECTIONS.
WHY would the Department of Homeland Security need to have ACCESS TO VOTER ROLLS?

Republicans, Braced for Losses, Push More Voting Restrictions in Congress
Republicans, Braced for Losses, Push More Voting Restrictions in Congress
Legislation that would require proof of citizenship to register to vote was only the beginning as the G.O.P. presses to sharply limit voting in line with President Trump’s false claims of widespread fraud.
By Annie Karni
Feb. 17, 2026The strict voter identification measure that Republicans have pushed through the House is just their opening salvo in a broader legislative effort aimed at keeping control of Congress this fall and helping to amplify the president’s false claims of mass voter fraud in the event that they lose.
The G.O.P.’s relentless focus on the bill and an even more restrictive measure making its way through the House — both of which face a steep uphill path to becoming law — is aimed chiefly at intensifying pressure within their own ranks to muscle through new voting restrictions and seek to reshape the electorate in their favor.
But it also allows Republicans to hammer President Trump’s falsehoods about widespread illegal voting particularly by undocumented immigrants, helping them build a case, however groundless, that any Democratic victories in November will be a result of cheating.
Next up is a measure from Representative Bryan Steil of Wisconsin, the chairman of the Committee on House Administration, whose “Make Elections Great Again Act” would go even further in imposing federal control over elections than the Save America Act, which squeaked through on a near-party-line vote last week. That bill would require proof of American citizenship to register to vote and allow the Department of Homeland Security to have access to voter rolls.

Tim Miller is a Never Trumper who wants to teach Democrats how to look the other way and ignore antisemitism, anti-blackness and all other forms of bigotry while we woo white male voters.
You know, the things he used to do as a registered Republican before Trump became the party’s standard bearer.

☢️ Prediction markets just tried to price nuclear war… and got shut down fast.
The Block dropped this: Polymarket’s “nuclear detonation by…?” contract hit $650K volume (22% odds by 2027) before public outrage and backlash forced it offline. Now U.S. regulators are watching closely.
Quick backstory for the new degens: Prediction markets like Polymarket let anyone bet real money on real-world outcomes — from election winners to Fed moves. They’ve existed for years and often aggregate info faster than polls or media. But this one crossed a line during the current Iran escalation (strikes, Hormuz risks, ballistic missiles). Bettors were pricing doomsday dates like March 31 or June 30, and the platform promoted the odds right before yanking the whole thing.
✅ VERIFICATION: Confirmed ✅
Multiple sources (Decrypt, Yahoo Finance, CoinDesk) back the pull — it was live, volume was real, then archived after social firestorm and insider-trading whispers tied to Iran bets.
🟠 STATUS: Fully confirmed 🟢 — market existed, volume hit, backlash hit harder, regulators now circling.
⚡ SIGNIFICANCE: High 🟠
This isn’t just edgy gambling. It shows how raw the current geo tail risks feel — markets were literally pricing nuclear outcomes in real time while Iran tensions spike. In our mid-bull cycle, where extreme fear (Fear & Greed at 9) is already shaking weak hands, this highlights how prediction platforms became a pressure valve for doomsday sentiment… until ethics and regulators slammed it shut.

There is so much to unwrap in that Texas mess.
1. WHY are parties running elections? The Republicans refusing to hold a joint primary? Why do they even get a choice?
2. They did the redistricting. Post redistricting, every voter should have received:
a. A new Voter ID Card with their new district on it
b. An updated polling place notice appropriate for the new district
3. On my jurisdiction’s website, under YOUR VOTER INFORMATION, I can find the following information:
a. Closest EV site to my address
b. My Election Day Local Polling place
c. Who are my Elected Officials
d. A sample ballot in all 11 languages that my jurisdiction covers
e. IF I have chosen a Mail Ballot, the status of my Mail Ballot
I can find out ALL of this on a WEBSITE.
There is absolutely no reason why these redistricted people shouldn’t have been clearly notified about their local polling place, and be able to find that information on a website.
CLEAR VOTER SUPPRESSION.
Good Morning, Everyone😊😊😊
