'Beyond Crazy': FBI Summons State Election Officials to Secretive Meeting After Trump Threat to 'Nationalize' Midterms

[sop]

"On Tuesday, election officials in all 50 states received an email from Kellie M. Hardiman, who identified herself as an 'FBI Election Executive'...Hardiman said the officials were invited to a call on February 25 with 'your election partners' at the FBI, the Department of Justice (DOJ), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the US Postal Inspection Service (USPIS), and the Election Assistance Commission (EAC)."

"The email has heightened fears that the Trump administration is meddling in the midterms or planning to do so; he has suggested on multiple occasions that the elections should be 'canceled' outright. Republican strategists are reportedly increasingly worried that the GOP could lose control of both the US Senate and the House."

"Although the Constitution plainly states that elections are to be run by state governments, Trump earlier this week said Republicans should 'nationalize' elections and 'take control of the voting in at least 15 places' led by Democrats."

"Nevada Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar told Berg he’d never heard of a conference call like this. He said he wrote back to Hardiman: 'Is this real? Given what’s occurred over the last two weeks, I am concerned'...'I was just like, What is this?’ It’s the strangest thing in the world that the FBI is reaching out to us and trying to coordinate election security,' Aguilar said. 'It’s never happened in the past. The casualness which they did… it was just beyond crazy.' "

1. Elections are run by the state and the FBI should have nothing to do with them.

This is working to set up the architecture to steal the 2026 electrons.

This what fascists do.
