I feel like we aren’t talking nearly enough about DeSantis (FL), Abbott (TX) and Kemp (GA) using or threatening to use state laws that allow for the removal of local elected officials for significant misconduct to replace Democrats with their Republican cronies on the flimsiest of pretexts, and without any due process. DeSantis already replaced 2 prosecutors, it’s how TX took over the Houston schools, and Kemp is threatening Fani Willis.

Republicans will take advantage of every and any mechanism that is available to take control of public offices that they did not win, and that the public does not want them to hold. If they are allowed to have any power, they will exploit it without regard to the will of the voters.

@amaditalks The Broken Bad GOP is in full blown power grab mode. How long will the majority stand for this? My suggestion is to swarm the polling places legally and vote the bumps out. 🤨
