Abolish the Electoral Vote System... and there will be no more divisiveness of Red State | Blue State.... It will simply be "American Citizen's Voting’

Declare Election Day A Holiday!

BEGIN ORGANIZING YOUR VOTING DAY PACKETS = Democracy NOW

Voters must assume well organized ANTI AMERICAN FASCIST CONSERVATIVES aka ALEC may have purged YOU from the voting rolls. Any way possible

Okay let's plan ahead. VOTE VOTE VOTE

And check often to see if you as as voter have been purged.

Voters ORGANIZE A VOTING DAY PACKET which should contain:

--- a birth certificate

--- drivers license or state ID card

--- proof of voter registration etc etc etc.

--- Keep this information close by for at least 100 years.


Let's get on with it. WE voters have a mess to clean up.

CONSERVATIVES will never give up squashing democracy and YOUR right to vote.


17 states could elect a president leaving 33 states with no voice whatsoever! Under the Electoral College Umbrella

VOTERS WE CANNOT depend on elected officials to lead the draining of the swamp. VOTERS IT IS UP TO
US to stop electing the big spending incumbents and stop electing RIGHT WING NUT CASES to the GOP.

We must bring down the cost of elections OURSELVES by electing new lower spending faces to office. Most of the most experienced elected officials are not doing their jobs.

THIS IS OUR FAULT for sending back the same faces year after year because this says we are pleased with their job performance which clearly we are not.

The only group work sending back are the progressive democrats of America a minority. The other democrats and the entire GOP are screwing the nation and we voters.

STATUS QUO MUST GO!!!!! = means the majority of my choices must go!!!!! Democrats and republicans.
 
The ALEC GOP will never drain the swamp. The only strong point of the ALEC GOP is they are masters of deception. Deception is number on the platform.
 

The Swamp: a revealing look into Washington corruption​

A new documentary finds bipartisan common ground as it follows Republican lawmakers to examine the corrosive influence of money in US democracy

The Swamp follows Republicans Thomas Massie, Ken Buck and in particular Matt Gaetz over the course of one turbulent year.

There’s a recurring graphic in The Swamp, a new HBO documentary riffing on the Trump campaign’s (false) promise to drain Washington of moneyed interests, in which vines overrun the Rotunda as it sinks into a gooey morass.

The lure of corruption, and the entrenchment of money, is all-encompassing – a rare shared point between America’s two political parties, and a thesis of a film attempting to pull back the curtain on business as usual in Washington.

Directors Morgan Pehme and Daniel DiMauro were not strangers to corruption in American politics; the two directed the 2017 documentary Get Me Roger Stone, a film about the Trump campaign consultant who was sentenced to 40 months in prison for corruption charges Trump commuted his sentence. But the two did not expect to find commonality on the issue of corruption in Congress in Drain the Swamp, a book invoking the Trump slogan by a co-founder of the House Freedom Caucus, Colorado representative Ken Buck.

The duo, self-described liberals, read the first seven or so chapters and were surprised to find themselves thinking, “we’re on the same page with this conservative member of the Freedom Caucus about how the rich donors and special interests are controlling and perverting our government,” Pehme told the Guardian.

Then they got to the chapter on Buck’s argument for the end of the Endangered Species Act, and it was, “Oh, right, we’re not on the same page with you at all.”

Still, the near-overlap with progressive calls from the likes of Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren to cleanse Washington of big-money donors seemed like a window into the deliberately opaque and confusing world of congressional fundraising.

Filming Buck and two fellow Republican lawmakers – Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Matt Gaetz of Florida in their DC offices, at their homes, at campaign stops and constituent visits – could offer “a chance to take the American public behind closed doors in Congress for the first time and show them how the sausage is made”, said Pehme.

They began filming The Swamp in 2019 with an understanding of money’s corrosive role in representative democracy, especially in the near-decade since the Citizens United v FEC decision by the supreme court uncapped donations by large political groups known as Super Pacs.

But the chokehold of money “was just so much worse than we could have imagined”, DiMauro told the Guardian. “Our objective was not to weasel our way into these Republican offices so that we could secretly undermine them,” said Pehme, a former political journalist. Rather, it was “to get the American people behind closed doors so they could see for themselves why the system is broken”.
