Lawrence O'Donnell: The Future Of America Is On The Ballot In Pennsylvania - The Last Word - MSNBC

[Rhiannon12866]

MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell describes how Republicans are plotting to steal future elections by allowing Republican state legislatures in swing states to subvert the will of the voters with the help of the radical majority on the Supreme Court by a "slow motion coup d’état." Aired on 07/07/2022.

1. Yup

[Rhiannon12866]

2. "Not just a crime against Pennsylvania voters, but a crime against the voters in every other state"

[SheltieLover]

5. Absolutely!

[Rhiannon12866]

12. This is the election to Watch this time around - everything depends on PA, as was said.

[SheltieLover]

14. It sure does!

[Rhiannon12866]

13. And we remember what happened in PA in 2016

I remember starting to get worried when that was announced.

[SheltieLover]

15. You are right!

17. I had dental surgery that day, stopped to vote on my way home

I fell asleep on the couch watching the returns and woke up at about 3am to see TFG and his entire three-marriage family gathered on the TV. I hoped that it was just a bad dream, little did I know what a never ending nightmare the country was in for...

[SheltieLover]

18. Yup

Never ending nightmare is right! Until all the ruskie assets are locked up.

3. holy

shit! I bet we will be hearing from jeff tiedrich on this next

[Rhiannon12866]

4. The goal isn't just "voter suppression," but to simply choose the candidates despite the voters

Exactly as TFG tried to do.

[SheltieLover]

16. Of course!

6. Truly scary.

This is the end game for the Supreme Court, to rig it for Republican rule forever.

[Rhiannon12866]

7. Oh, I know - and we know that the Supreme Court are seeking to restrict everything that they can

It's scary as hell both for voting rights and for every personal choice we can make. And here we were so relieved when we thought we were rid of TFG for good - but his legacy is continuing to haunt us.

8. The Bush v. Gore decision shows they don't care about the law, they just want the Republican to win.

I am so upset about that state elector case SCOTUS is about to rule on. I fear it is the end of democracy in the US.

[Rhiannon12866]

9. I've thought of that, too - and if it was bad back then, I can imagine what would happen now

We can no longer trust the Supreme Court to rule on anything, they've become an activist Supreme Court, not what that branch was intended for.

10. That was such an intense show (I listen on tune in radio).

Truly scary.

But we may yet beat this down.
Not giving up hope. ✊

[Rhiannon12866]

11. I agree that this was the show of the night, informative and scary as it gets

We have the president, desperately need the Senate - but that leaves the biggest problems we have now, states that seek to decide elections and an unchecked activist Supreme Court.
