Let's get some OSCE election observes in for 2022/24.
That will make some people's heads explode. |

Democrats need to take this seriously. They need recruit good candidates and start pouring money into those campaigns. The 527s need to start going negative on the enemy candidates as soon as they're identified.
If the Lincoln project wanted to do something useful, they'd be recruiting conservative third party spoiler candidates for these races. |

I am getting a distinct impression that in the name of "preventing cheating" they are trying to make sure they have the power to overturn many elections by fiat, without having to actually prove fraud.
Is there a rundown state by state or anything like that? |

This breaks down states that have enacted voter restriction laws. I didn't see anything that showed all the targeted races for secretary of state offices or country elections officials. A lot of the coverage though does some fear mongering. Yes, hundreds of bills in state houses have been introduced to restrict access but most of them are doomed. Oregon has several but I'm not seeing Kate Brown signing them into law. There are some in Pennsylvania but not going anywhere due to the lack of a veto proof majority. A lot of this is grandstanding in states where Rs are a minority party. Arizona has a Q candidate for SOS and a complete freak running for governor. There are some important local races in Michigan that people should be concerned about. Someone is gunning for SOS in Georgia of course. |

Some are chanting "let's go Brandon" while holding sign saying "Trump / Kennedy WWG1WGA 2020." Time-travelers for Trump!

I actually heard someone at work say that the CIA controlled Bitcoin. Not sure how it fits into the bigger picture, but he has some other nutty ideas as well.

The most telling thing about this rally is that there are several signs supporting a Trump/Kennedy ticket. What's telling about this is that Kennedy, a man who has supposedly been on a super secret deep cover mission for decades fighting the deep state, would be the sidekick on an election ticket.
A guy can fake his own death and spend his life tirelessly fighting the deep state, but to these people he would still be second banana to Trump. Personality cult for sure. |

Update: Now JFK Jr. will appear onstage later tonight with the Rolling Stones...because he failed to show at Dealey Plaza...because he's dead...and probably will remain dead for the time being...

Update: A heavy rain set in, driving most back to whatever halfway houses and asylums they came from, but a few die-hards remain.
We know they're die-hards because they are telling people that Trump will walk back into the Oval Office tomorrow with JFK Jr. at his side and resume the Presidency. I wish I was making this up. |

Why would JFK (Jr or Sr) turn up on the 2nd November? Surely the 22nd would make more sense.

Ben Collins NBC News tweeted
The QAnon people are walking up to random people they think are dead celebrities in Dallas today and introducing themselves. So far they have seen "Robin Williams" and "Dale Earnhardt." They now think JFK Jr. will reveal himself at a Rolling Stones concert tonight. They are "seeing" dead celebrities everywhere. Just now from this Q livestream: "There's somebody in a mask... Is it Michael Jackson? It's Michael Jackson, isn't it?" |

Keith Richards is a friend of Obama's, so that wouldn't be a very likely occurrence. Independently, the Stones also have pre-political negative history with Trump as well.
What would be funny, however, is if Richards was informed of this QAnon expectation for tonight's show and he took the opportunity during the concert to send a very special message to Trump and his biggest fans. |

Looks like the rain has finally driven them all off the knoll.
I guess they're now all back in their hotel rooms waiting for the big announcement. Scalpers outside the Stones concert will be making BANK tonight. |

A friend of mine just saw the Stones in St. Louis and noted there were more empty seats than he expected to see. Maybe the scalpers saw an opportunity and jumped on it. "Pissst, I heard JFK Jr. is going to reveal himself at the Stones show tonight, and check it out, I got an extra pair of tickets man, I can let you have them for just a couple grand, man. Better get them while you can!" It's just Quazy enough to work, man! |

"Any minute now ..." -- the tldr; of Q.
The final minute to JFK Jr not showing up in Dallas today. (reddit.com) This is a mythic level of dumbass drama fail, and I'm pretty sure these people are too stupid to feel ashamed. |

You'd think that when they finally lay their heads to sleep after yet another non-event, that they'd look up at the ceiling and ask "am I ...nuts?"
