So Trump is planning to build a 250 foot arch in front of and will dwarf the Lincoln Memorial with an estimated cost of over 100 million. Trump indicates the arch will be just as gaudy and tasteless as the WH decorative changes and the proposed Trump WH ballroom. I'm pretty sure the arch will be called the " Arc de Trump "

Paging Calla, ram, and other lurking MAGAs... Is this what you voted for ? Really ?

TRUMP: I want to see elections be honest, & if a state can't run an election, I think the people behind me should do something about it. If you think about it, the state is an agent for the federal govt on elections. Look at Detroit, Pennsylvania, Atlanta -- horrible corruption on elections
 




Le is not even an official DOJ attorney -

“… Julie Le, an attorney working on behalf of the U.S. Attorney’s Office, admitted in court Tuesday that the government is "overwhelmed" by the number of legal challenges coming out of Operation Metro Surge.

…
What they're saying:

"I am here to make sure the agency understands how important it is to comply with court orders," said Le, who became visibly emotional during the court hearing.

While Le said procedures are being implemented to ensure ICE complies with court orders moving forward, she admitted it has been like pulling teeth and has required non-stop work in an already depleted office.

"I wish you would just hold me in contempt of court so I can get 24 hours of sleep," Le said. "The system sucks, this job sucks, I am trying with every breath I have to get you what I need."…”

“… Le volunteered to help the U.S. Attorney’s Office last month as habeas petitions started to flood into federal court.

She previously worked as an attorney for ICE in immigration court.

ICE has its own court policies and procedures and was not prepared to argue cases in federal court, according to Le.

"We have no guidance or direction on what we need to do," Le said.“

——
I can’t tell from this whether she was an attorney directly employed by the Federal Government or an outside (private practice) attorney who represented ICE … if she is the MN admitted Julie Le I found, then she is/was a ‘22 law school grad & was an associate at a small law firm there that focuses on workers comp. Maybe not her though(?)

So any states or cities that dare to vote against him are the only ones who "can't run elections." How convenient. If a state or city votes for him then by definition they are "competent" at running elections. He's so transparent in what he wants to do, and yet our government and news media and other supposed safeguards of democracy and the constitution just sit around pretending like it's not happening, or bosiding everything. We're witnessing the total implosion of our constitutional system of government in real time.
