It was not a Million MAGA on the streets of DC today, but it would be catastrophic to not take what happened today seriously. This is a beginning, not the end. We're witnessing the initial coalescing of a wide range of far-right forces into mass opposition.

When Trump directed Homeland Security agents to find voter fraud by checking immigration records against voter registration data, some agency insiders warned from the start: There would be “ungodly” numbers of false positives.

Hearing a lot of @TPUSA drama on Election Day in New Hampshire: multiple reports of paid sign holders showing up to polling places with no signs to wave and leaving.
Some holding signs telling voters to vote for Anthony DiLorenzo in CD2… when he is running in CD1. #NHPolitics

This is insane.
🚨BREAKING: A landmark voting rights protection that ensures the right of every American to cast their vote without fear of intimidation does not apply to federal law enforcement, the Department of Justice (DOJ) said in a dangerous new argument. democracydocket.com/news-ale…

I've been mostly posting elsewhere, but decided to drop by to link a pair of articles about the "Democrats for Mike Rogers" astroturf effort. The first discusses how the recently-created @DemsForMike X account gets most of its engagement from Republicans:

Roughly 30 conservative election-integrity nonprofits were started after 2020, when Cleta Mitchell and her allies tried to overturn Trump’s loss.
Well over half of those organizations have received money from Mitchell or have close ties with her.

Medgar Evers was killed in his driveway because he refused to accept a Mississippi where some were denied the right to vote.
He stood with thousands who marched, organized and sacrificed so future generations could have a voice. We owe it to them not to take that right for granted. On Tuesday, honor their legacy. Vote.

ICE Raid in North Hollywood Shows Unconscious Detainee Hauled Into SUV
In North Hollywood, California, a video filmed from an overlooking balcony captures an ICE enforcement operation in a residential neighborhood. Heavily armed agents in tactical gear have surrounded an unmarked gray SUV on a quiet street.
The most disturbing element of the footage is the detainee himself. He appears completely limp and unresponsive, as two ICE agents struggle to haul his unconscious or exhausted body into the back seat of the SUV while a third agent stands guard. The footage provides no clear indication of whether he was incapacitated prior to the arrest, during a struggle, or as a result of a medical emergency.

A dentist from Ontario married a U.S. citizen, performed dentistry in "shortage areas" and was pursuing lawful status when ICE arrested him based on erroneous paperwork.
Judge Mike Davis said the "hubris" and "appalling" facts justify immediate release.

Hundreds of anti-fascists outnumbered and outmanoeuvred Manchester’s far right on Saturday, exposing the gulf between its online boasts and street support.
But their miserable turnout does not mean the threat has disappeared.

Pennsylvania officials caught a scheme involving 10 forged mail-in ballot applications submitted by a woman from Idaho.
The best part? She was an independent contractor for Mobilize the Message, a conservative voter outreach operation founded by Republican strategist Cliff Maloney.
The system worked as designed. All 10 applications were flagged and rejected. No ballots were issued.
The irony? A Republican-aligned political operation caught up in an election-fraud investigation. Meanwhile, Scott Perry was already misrepresenting what actually happened.
Facts matter. Apparently, especially when Republicans are doing the explaining.
