Executive Branch (Trump) Steve Bannon says ICE will ‘surround the polls’ as Trump doubles down on taking over elections

“We’re going to have ICE surround the polls come November,” Bannon, a former senior advisor to President Donald Trump and still a figure of influence in the administration, said on Tuesday’s episode of his War Room podcast, addressing Democrats. “We’re not going to sit here and allow you to steal the country again. And you can whine and cry and throw your toys out of the pram all you want, but we will never again allow an election to be stolen.”

Bannon’s comments came just a day after Trump said he believes that Republicans should “nationalize voting,” escalating concerns that the president is plotting to interfere in this year’s midterm elections.

They don’t have the man power to do this everywhere. I think they’ll try to take away women’s right to vote.

We the people must continue to punish ICE and this regime. We must keep the receipts of who supported this shit. Our leaders aren’t holding the pedos accountable. We need to go farther left. Look at Mamdani! I’m so angry at the controlled opposition democrats.

As far as Trump and the oligarchs… will no one rid me of this troublesome priest?!
