1. Spread the word: If you are denied a ballot, request a provisional ballot. It's your right. Find out how to follow up to make sure your ballot is counted.
2. If DHS employees violated state laws, the states should question them. Not to prosecute them, but to prosecute the higher ups. The executive branch doesn't decide what the law is. States decide state laws, and the federal judicial branch decides federal laws.
We all should be incredibly grateful to whistleblowers, with this as a prime example, though I'd like to think there'll be a time when they aren't as necessary as they are now.
Thanks, Olivia: Your dedication to truth and democracy knows no bounds. Yes, when a worker starts asking questions, Am I breaking the law? It should cause a great deal of concern. If you are a voter, make sure you are registered and know where the polling station is located. Vote early. It's imperative that you vote.
As I read this, in the background Kash Patel is being questioned by Senator Blumenthal.
It's making me sick.
On one side there is a greasy, dishonest, ineffective, drunken man who has one job: Protect Trump. Obfuscate and lie, then lie more. Then send a fighter jet to pick up your girlfriend so you can get laid. He's destroying the FBI, as he's been directed to.
On the other side, a typical aging, Dem Senator with no intensity who's being steamrolled
For the love of GOD the gerontocracy is just KILLING us
And the committee is being chaired by 97 year old Chuck Grassley, playing his role perfectly for his audience of one.
This is today's America.
All I want is ONE DAY where I see better. ONE DAY where the Dem Senators and Reps don't make me want to throw the TV out the window. ONE DAY of better. ONE DAY of hope
Fortunately I don't live under a fascist dictatorship, but I feel so sorry for my American cousins and friends... Liked, restacked and shared for the benefit of decent Americans.
I agree, Mike! Trump and his minions will leave, but that 78 million of us will still be here, waving their flags and spewing their hatred. So depressing.
My head is about to explode! Everyday there is something new this "regime" tries to do to rig the election. I pray both chambers flip but after reading Judge Luttig's article, whereby he lays out a scenario that Mike Johnson won't seat new house members at the behest of Trump makes my Italian blood boil. We need to get historic numbers of voters out. Please, don't sit this midterm out folks. Our democracy depends on all of us voting. After, ICE/DHS needs to be dismantled. There can be no restoration only reformation at this point.
Thanks for breaking this down for us, Olivia. Your expertise and experience is helpful to understand the severity of the threat our own government now poses. Thank you for continuing to serve your Country in the way you do now!
Thank you for all the info you give us Olivia it's truly appreciated. I have one question though? Why is DHS doing anything? Do they feel if a couple of immigrants mistakenly vote that it's a threat to our country's security? I just keep thinking in all my life I NEVER had to fear an election as much as I do today! I will be voting early on election day and hope nobody tries to stop me.
Thank you for your continued service to our country. :-)

Wow this is primetime stuff.

Keep checking your voter registration and HAND deliver your ballots to a ballot box or your election official!!! And please vote blue.

We've done it to ourselves. Just as predicted, by people carrying a Bible and screaming about their patriotism. Without a shot being fired.
The fact that 70-80M of us would vote for him again TOMORROW is a sign of a nation in a state of collapse.
Started with Reagan. Then Fox News. Then Newt, W, Palin and now this dummy.
Vietnam>Iraq>Iran and now they're rattling sabers at Cuba and Greenland and if they have their way, Ukraine will fail

Wouldn’t it be illegal for federal agents to misrepresent themselves to election officials?

My concern is that an eligible voter’s vote could be invalidated and they wouldn’t even know it.
