Have already voted ... against every single republican on the ballot.
I will do the same .
Me too, man. And everyone in my household.
Let’s get get em!
On behalf of your northern neighbour I thank you. 🙏🏻 greetings from the northern Rockies 🇨🇦
I cannot ever vote for a GOP candidate, they have been bad faith actors my entire life.
Going to do a livestream in a little bit.
How do I find the link to it?
When he says: "It's going to be rigged", he neglected to say "..in my favour." 🤦
@@yetanothercsstudent It'll pop in your notifications or just come back to the channel in about 30 to 40 minutes. Don't have a link yet.
I dropped my ballot off today in nj but I have a sinking feeling the election has already been stolen

“When conservatives come to believe they can no longer win democratic elections they will not abandon conservatism, they will instead abandon democracy” - David Frum.
Well, we’re here.
Considering conservatism was created to oppose democratic government in the first place, that is exactly what we would expect.

Dear American Voter: NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER give up your right to vote. NEVER.
do not give up what is left of your freedom, but redefine the term maybe
And our ability to vote for each level MATTERS. Know that. This is how we keep "checks and balances" reguarding financial matters, legislative matters and overall the amount of power given to each. This is what saves us from Tyranny in most cases to avoid our use of the Bill of Rights in the "war" sense. This would be a much worse situation if we didn't vote for each.
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER,
Here’s what Biden should say to trump: “YOU are the man in charge. This is YOUR watch. Ensuring the fidelity of elections is a fundamental job of YOURS. If you can’t ensure that everyone can vote and that every vote will be fairly counted, YOU SHOULD RESIGN because you haven’t done your job.
He has already ready done that. Come up with another quote.
Dutreece Gardner if he has already said something as forceful as this, good on him. It certainly can’t hurt to continue hammering the point.
and trump wouldnt care. the orange slug that he is
I would like to say:
"Since you already complained four years ago that you thought that postal voting was not a safe way to vote, you could have spent these years making the system more secure. Because you did not do it, please shut up about it."
It's "you haven't done your job man."
The fires of hell will not keep me from voting. I'm in Texas. We will not let them dissuade us.
It's really simple. You can either be an American or you can be a republican. You can't be both anymore.
@John Smith Holding citizenship doesn't mean one is acting like a decent American, though, does it?
@John Smith Yes, and the republican party not only reminds us of that, but shows us by example every single day.
Thanks Governor Abbot, you just ensured that I will vote. All of these games has convinced me that I will definitely vote! And I'm sure not afraid of no damned poll watchers.
👏👏👏👏👏💪💪💪💪
Vote either way.
As a Republican. This made me furious.
The right to vote is sacred...god damnit man
I was in Iraq during the first elections in 2005. It was inspiring. It sad to see one party fight so hard to prevent democracy from happening. If my vote didn’t matter then they wouldn’t be trying so hard to suppress it.
Michelle Obama already said you must have a plan. Couple of sandwiches, a few bottles of water, portable chair if you need it. Because you may be waiting for a while. Plan on waiting.
Because of you I registered to become poll worker in my state. Thank you so much for the information, history lessons and voice to encourage Americans to do what we can to make change. Thank you Beau! If anything you can say you encouraged at least one person to make a difference.

Seems like the closer we get to Nov 3, the angrier you're getting. Rightly so.
When your minister talks like that on Sunday morning, do you say he’s angry or is s/he righteous? He isn’t losing control, he’s just desperately trying to wake us up while we’re sleeping in a burning house.
@@mikemccarthy1638 I get you but it seems to me that it a very pressing issue and now is the time!
Hes Clearly passionate, I would guess hes been at least a bit angry on some of the more recent vids and of agree, rightfully so.
Cheers
@@mikemccarthy1638 My minister?? Please, I'm a grown-up.
I saw that too. You can tell he's pissed!
Craig Corson me too. Vote him out so hard that we burn the stain of defeat onto his very soul.
I can't even begin to tell you how much i don't want to vote for Biden, but i'm going too
~ I hate the two party corporate owned monopoly
Just once before I die, (and I'm 65 now), I want to be able to vote FOR someone instead of AGAINST someone. I'm so tired of this BS!
"We the people...!"/"We..." the problem!
"we" humans, got lazy, and let government do our "duty" for us!
Please help us fix this! By Christmas!
There's one extra way! Please consider!
Young folks must employ this, too! "We" needs you!
(A vet asking you millions of other Vets, to provide our backbone!)!
Here; in a 21st century context! [Note: paraphrasing!]!
For comprehensive contingencies managing!
"Civil defense is emergency [contingencies] management!" (EMI / FEMA)!
Thus; cyclical phases of: mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery (EMI / FEMA)!
Through an IEMS / Integrated [contingencies] Management System, which includes all sectors: private, public, and government (EMI / FEMA)!
FEMA recommends we maintain secondary EOCs (Emergency / [contingencies] Operations Centers)!
"We" can use that ! To build our own, for "We", as the "4th Branch!" And; "We" don't need anyone's permission!
Over the decades, our governments have claimed everything "civil defense" as under "Civil Defense"; thus, under government's authority and controls! And, "they" are not likely to let go of such absolute power!... Thus; now it's called, "DHS / Dept. of Homeland Security, which is in authority over FEMA!" [Note: your local DES Director can launch an FBI investigation on anyone, as spite, alone! Thus; Nazi capabilities and tactics!]!
Folks, "civil defense" is "civilian", thus, any human cashing a government paycheck, may be "civil government", but that $$$ represents a serious conflict of interest, especially for any person appointed as DES Director, by the newly elected "party!" [Note, instances: A good FEMA Director, James Witt, ousted! Or; "Project Impact", w/ the goal, "to build disaster resistant communities!", was ended by GW Bush! (Yes! It needed improvement; but, it focused on getting you and me actively involved in our community's "civil defense" system!]!
Thus; how to get back in, to take it back, and make it a good, civilian, perpetual, social system!
[Thus; a suggested name must equal it's goal, mission, and objective s! One that connects all sectors, again... Clean and democratic!
I highly recommend, the name: DES Support Systems! More later.].
(Imagine having your own NASA type control center capabilities; with, hands-on learning potential, within academics! Imagine clicking an icon, that takes you to your own contingencies management site, for any issues: maps, charts, graphs, reports, studies, data, surveys, polls, etc! A place to plug in your views!)!
Start with, we millions of Vets, for a quick backbone! We are civilians, who know stuff, like tactics, strategies, a professional system!
(And; I might add, there's a reason most of us departed after our first tour = hate for anything smelling like tyranny... bullies holding power ! Vet are only a quick place to start, where all can get involved, as part of a system with nominated / specially selected leadership, from among our best! Folk won't follow anyone less, in this!).
What I'm proposing is the contingencies management system FEMA recommends, from their many studies.
It's our back way, back into "their" system; while, such actually belongs to "We", since "we" ain't welcome, through the front! "We" got lazy, and let "them" take over our responsibilities!
"We" can take it back, very quickly... Basically, over night, from our homes!
Make a logistics / liaison NGO! With a matrix organizational structure!
To provide us with an easy projects management capability, where we can all pick our areas of interest, and can contribute our voices!
Where ""We" can map our governments, pick them apart, streamline them, clean out the excess, and the filth, for an efficient respectable republic!
From within a "Project" (eg, voting), "we" can then choose a "Mission" area to study, and to contribute (who, when, where, what, why, how...)!
Reviving this system will restore gov. oversight for "We"!
= Project - Whistles Blower
- to install a buffer!
= A place to speak our minds, in complete continuous safety, with folks we chose to be available trusted options, to represent them, as middle buffers, who work to resolve issues. Not appointed by gov, like what gov usually sends "to help!"
Do you know, the spy saying, something like "safety in enemies midst!"
This is our way to send in trustworthy folks, to "infiltrate" "their" systems, to end corruption!
Thus; the legally accepted way! Point blank, and deliberately, in "their" faces! Now! By you and me! Over night!
Again; "their" system belongs to all of you!
However, "We" must preserve a system of "Professional First Responders", too! Thus, "We" needs both!
Thus; those under paycheck type restrictions, with the rest of us helping out, as we should be, anyway!
"DES" ... Support Systems
"Disaster & Emergency Services" (= gov / "Professional Responders").
While;...
... We can be the "Support Systems" (thus; access, again!)!
However, it's for humans, which means, inclusion! Thus; all !!!
(I recommend a movie, to help with understanding. While the movie excludes "politicians", our's can not! "We" must stomp ego out of it ... = no titles, labels, etc.
When the movie ends, I invite you to help to create a contemporary version of that portrayed system!
I suppose, in a great way, "We" can take up where they're drama left off, but I real life!
"Meet John Doe", w/ Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwick).
Note this!
DHS is potentially illegal, because it's built on "the Civil Defense Act of 1950." Which states nothing of the private sector! Thus; along the way, we got lazy and let gov take over our responsibilities in "civil defense!"
And; bad leaders have turned it into a gestapo, against us, in the name of emergency management!
Also note, the old 1964 Civil Defense manuals!
Thus; "active and passive civil defense being crucial components of national security posture!"
- "active" = "armed" "Minute..."
- "passive" = facilities, Coms, etc.
Thus; I highly recommend the Swiss example, built into our republic! Immediately!
The gapping hole, the way in: FEMA is desperately trying to get folks involved in community emergency management, to help manage all disasters!
They stated the creation of CEM Comprehensive Emergency Management
= (Cyclically phased: preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation)
And;
The IEMS = "Integrated Emergency Management System!"
Which is their plea for "all sectors to be involved: public, private, and government"!
(Find a dictionary:
- "civil" = non military, non police, non eclesia, ...!
- "civil defense"...!)
However; note the 1776 concept!
"Minute man, woman, kid, elder"
= neighborhood incident management !
= comprehensive contingencies management
Bring it into a 21st century context!
Among us!
To provide a simple basic way to have voice!
"A well regulated [contingencies management system] being necessary to the [national security posture] of a free state, the right of the people to [employ a Swiss type system won't likely be] infringed!"
[Note: I'm a Veteran '73-78, age 64, but I have not ever owned a firearm! Thus; I can't be call militia, since such is kind of a prerequisite... ! ... Or not???
I managed Armories, so l must claim, knowledge and experience, thereof! Nevertheless; stand the f... by, if "My Lady's" liberty is threatened!
I'd rather do so through our accepted legal way to do so!)
This is the only way, to be accepted by DES, for us to gain complete access!
"Their" system actually belongs to "civil defense"!
Look into the different titles it's had, since the 1940s!
Read the dissertation about it, by: Boyce Wayne Blanchard. And; about his ride in FEMA, at EMI.
Thus, FEMA development of grad degrees in such fields; and, requiring Bachelor degrees, for EOC Directors...!
Along the way, "their" system was no longer interested in "civilians"! You'll usually find the door bolted now. The only way in is by invitation or appointment, by gov officialdom!
Hell; I can't even get in any more! Haven't since after 9/11 !
Thus; f..... them! We can build our own. They need us, too!
Join me! Help me!
[I'm old and tech ignorant! But, I have tons of incredible info you need!
I need to pass it on!
I can support all I've written here, and have support letters and recommendations!]
Also; most military personnel receive NCB Warfare Recon, in basic!
"We" need those capabilities:
to monitor, detect, contain, decontaminate, and rescue humans from it!
Use us to initiate a backbone... A standard!
Please note: to those who have served in FET ! "We" need you to help us set this up, here, among mother's, sisters, daughters, grandmothers, families, neighborhoods...!
Help us recon this virus, as well as other diseases, and "clear areas", until "We" are safe, and beyond! Help us contend with contingencies!
"Project" examples: operations, personnel, projects, admin, finance (grant writers, for goodies "We" need for nailing down truth), our web sites (for info and participation, in this "4th Branch" system), surveys, polls, voting, community profiles [utilities, transport systems (roads, rails, shipping...), liaisons, security,, sewage, power, solid waste, storm drains, logistics ,(personnel, supplies, equipment, livestock, transport, storage, e), map government (so we can itemize where, and to who, our tax dollars go .....!), Disaster & Emergency Services (Professional s) with "Support Systems" ("We") = better NCB Recon against chemical, biological, radiological warfare (corner this virus and other diseases, pollution... !...)], continental security, ... Bigfoot (trust me!), amateur Archeology (so folks can fill in what they've witnessed. I've seen lots of stuff no one knows of, for instance...)...! Anything! Everything!
Standing by!

Right there with ya.
come to the uk. we have around 300 parties to choose from
Yeah, join the club.
Voting for the lesser of 2 evils is a bad policy but we seem to have no choice in the matter, ever.
Certainly no choice this cycle
The United States of America ( a misnomer if I ever heard one ) now resembles Germany in the 1930's and it scares the shit out of me.
Not the 4 Reich it's the second republic.
I am a German ... and I sadly agree! same strategies,same kind of friends ...
If they had policies they were proud of, they’d have no reason to fear people voting.
I served my nation for 28 years, literally, until it was decided I no longer should.
I WILL be serving my nation one more time on election day, standing outside my local polling place, making sure no one is intimidated, no one is turned away, before they can exercise their Constitutionally guaranteed right to self-determination.
I'm not intimidated by anyone, they're just human beings like me. But, I might have faced a few intimidating situations more than them.
Possibly.
🙂thanks.
Thank you for your service to our country. America loves you.
Be safe
Your the man that's what's needed
You must have good brothers across the country?
Texan here, I’m pretty pissed about that little maneuver Abbott just pulled. I never thought Texas was really “in play” mind you, but that’s just blatantly rigging it. This isn’t gonna affect rural voters like me at all, it’s only gonna hurt the folks in the cities where they lean more blue. Make it harder on the opposition to vote but easier for the Trumpists. Just disgusting. And all this in a state they already pretty much had in their pocket. It’s not just evil it’s disturbingly unnecessary evil.
I think it shows they are SCARED. To do this in states where you already expect to win would be evil. But I think they see the sea, and it's a storm surge that's going to ride far into the Texas political landscape. They're doing everything in their power to hold on because they genuinely are beginning to believe that even "safe" states are not assured any longer.
This will effect a lot of rural voters who don't have the means to drop off their ballot.
😪
Texas must be pretty concerned about going blue. In a weird way, this is kind of heartening.
Thanks to the electoral college it may not have an effect on the presidential race, but it will have an effect on the rest of the ballot. That's probably what Abbott is trying to do.
@@k.c1126 we can only hope
One guy is so scared of going to jail, he's going to take an entire country down with him to avoid that.

But worse he has a cult that will help him crash and burn this country just to prove their loyalty.

There isn’t a single person out there that is worth throwing our democracy away for. He and his whole family should be arrested now.
@@gwenreader6631 For treason.
When Trump said "get rid of the ballots", he didn't specify "mail in". It wasn't a gaffe. He meant what he said.
'And there will be NO transition of power.'
@@sandras7029 That, too.
Tx records 1.5 million new registered from 2016. Biggest increase since 1908. I read it in Tx vote website. I'm here voting Biden, 63 & I'm a 1st time voter.
Good.
Me too
As a person in Texas I also have a real issue with this.
Edit. I also plan on going to my local polling location on November 3rd to watch peoples backs and make sure that they can vote in peace and without harassment.
bravejango12 ...right on!!!! Thank you!!!! Wish there were more people who would do the same!!!!!❤️🕊🇺🇸
Thank you. Be safe.
jango, please be careful. It's not worth an arrest. I believe there is a law about how many feet away a person who is not voting has to be from polling place. Be safe and stay healthy man.
I will be early voting in person and nobody is going to intimidate me.
Are you going to be a certified poll watcher?
Thank you Beau. I am Texas born and bred. Here all my life. I got so mad this afternoon when I read his announcement, my chest started pounding. I had already seen that the place I had voted at for the last 10+ years had changed. I had voted there during primary in March. In fact both places in my town have changed. Plus have you seen how big some of the counties in Texas are. Plus drop off location for county had changed. Plus like churches, there will be no requirements for masks at polling places. Have to take off mask so they can verify voter id. Since when do you need poll watchers for mail in ballot drop off? Who are these poll watchers going to be - is that what the proud boys are standing by for?? 10 and a half months away from being 65, I can't vote by mail. Our supreme court ruled that fear of catching covid doesn't count even if you have underlying health conditions. I hope it is safe, but nothing is going to stop me from voting.
Sigh, just try to keep 6 feet away from other people and wash your hands after. Good Luck :s
I’m proud to think of you voting. You are my hero. It’s so important to know you won’t be stopped. I can’t imagine this is happening in our country. After the election we have work to do.
I took the day off from work, I check my voter registration every week. I will wait all day if needed!
Probably the most disgusted/pissed looking Beau in this one. Understandably.
I live in Houston Texas and I just heard about it. But it want stop me from voting. I'm 49 years old and have never seen anything like this in my lifetime. We plan to use all cars trucks, vans and and all other means to pickup people to vote. If it means going to pickup the ballots for them.
Thank-you.
Dutreece Gardner be careful what you mean by “going to pickup the ballots for them.” A Republican operative did the same in NC (except he altered the ballots). He was caught. Laws in some jurisdictions don’t allow others to transport ballots for reasons like these. If yours is one of them, Republicans may throw out these collected ballots claiming they could have been tampered with. So, please be careful.
I remember twenty something years ago, Richard Scrushy said he’d pull his business out of Birmingham, Alabama if voters didn’t approve the tax he was pushing. He wanted the people to pay for a domed stadium (seems he wanted to have his own pro sports team like the big boys). I figured as much political clout as he had, it was a sure thing, and Birmingham citizens would be saddled with ponying up for his new play-pretty for decades. Next morning, the news was voters said no. I could hardly believe it, and the elation I felt at the voters giving him what for still swells my heart today, and pushes me to vote every chance I get. Lord, that felt so good.
Happy birthday, President Jimmy Carter. We need you and your team to observe U.S. election
Vote. Just vote. Regardless of how you have to vote, go vote.
That really is all it takes for us to take the system back but folks just won't do it... I guess they're losing hope all the time, but obviously that I'd not the whole story
Turnout matters, and there is so much more on the ballots.
Good Luck

Almost. DO NOT vote by mail unless you absolutely have to. The Rs will do everything they can to make sure they're not counted. Vote in person if you possibly can.
@@DarkElfDiva Oregon has drop boxes, you can mail it or take it in person. And years of any choice working well. Other states do this too and the facts don't match the rhetoric republicans are throwing at the wall. Use what works best for you, and is legal
I will have to drive 45 minutes to drop my ballot. I will have to act a fool if someone tries to intimidate me. I've got an issue with this too.
I remember the purple fingers and was so happy for those people. Voting is the American way!
Don't fret, Beau. As a blue Texan, we will walk through fire to get there and vote. My neighborhood is doing everything we can to help others get there. ❤💯
Beau, I have to tell you that I don't recognize this country anymore. It is so disheartening to see all of this fascism taking place before our eyes, and to know there is very little any of us can do about it. That's why I appreciate your voice and your platform, and the care you put into sharing this message with anyone who would take the time to listen. Thank you!!!
Remember, there's more of us than them. Resist.✊😁 It's fun.
I'm terrified I had to cry. Why why why???
M R : Agreed. It's one thing for an entire political party to be party over country. It's an entirely different matter when a significant portion of the American population is party over country. And these same scumbags have the audacity to fly American flags on their houses and pickup trucks. Who the fuque do they think they're kidding???
This news enraged me in a way I can’t even explain. Don’t let anyone silence you and your vote.
No way in hell I won't vote
I'm watching this from the UK, it amazes me that the nation that went to the moon, was the voice of the free world, has taken such a wrong turn, fortunately I think and believe that a significant majority have the sense and passion to right that wrong, this channel is a beacon
The significant majority do ... but that minority is shocking significant enough (30 - 40%), and they aren't just going to disappear. And the Republican Party has been engineering and subverting the system for a long time, working tirelessly to solidify their gerrymandering, and they desperately know that their rigged system can't endure much longer as their base thins out.
@@db5823 I was amazed at the shapes of some of your voting districts, obvious gerrymandering how is this allowed to happen, along with the obvious voter supresion and that apocryphal college system it seems so (I hate to say it) undemocratic, in a country that was founded on universal suffrage, (I know it was only for free holding men) allow this to happen
The majority do but the fascists have a lot of guns.
Damn...Just Damn 😳
VOTE! BEFORE YOU WON'T BE ALLOWED TO DO SO! SAVE WHAT'S LEFT OF OUR DEMOCRACY.
PLEASE...
Would you like to know something even more depressing? I live in the Caribbean region, our elections were always contentious/violent but the assurance that the US sent observers who rendered judgment on whether they were fair or not made the elections more peaceful. What happens when we can't trust you to fill that role anymore? The last few months have made me realize that empires do not collapse, they commit suicide. I am sad for you.
There are other UN nations who would gladly back your elections, try organizing and talking to any Canadian official you can to ask if we'll do it. The world is still out there and we're looking more and more like WW3 will be a tyrannical free for all with us in the middle.
Good way to put it. We're witnessing - and contributing - to our own destruction.
To be honest most elections in the Caribbean region are free and fair. What Republicans are doing is already against the law in a lot of Caribbean countries. I just voted here a month and process was easy and simple. The political parties has what we call outdoor agents and their main function is to assist you to find your polling division at a polling station.
I'm in Texas and people are fuming. But I can sense how afraid the gop is. They're watching it slip away.
The GOP is so desperate to consolidate and hang on to power that they will murder this nation and everyone in it to get their way. Meanwhile the enabler codependent Democratic party has stood by for 40 years and allowed the shit to build to where it is today.
Get a federal judge to revoke the order!
Make Texas blue for a generation.
@@vixen0347 : You mean... one of Ttump's appointed judges? See the problem?
A Z : I don't know where you live that you see Texans fuming; but I live in the heavily populated suburbs of its largest city. If anything, Ttump's cult followers just dig their heals in more, with every lie, with every scandal, with every treasonous act.
San Antonio resident here. I will be voting early, in person. And for the first time in my life, voting for a Democrat.
I’ve also signed up to be a poll worker on November 3rd, and will be keeping an eye out for poll watching goons.
The GOP legislature tried the same 1 drop off per county in Ohio too. Thankfully the court struck it down.
My son was in Operation Khanjar. (Home safe) I have been thinking about those purple fingers a lot this week.
I'm in Austin and I and several of my family members here are all voting in-person.
I remember too Beau, especially the women smiling although sometimes all you could see were their eyes. But the smiles were obviously there. My only problem with what you said is that you or I can certainly keep our heads down and mouths shut to go vote but if you don’t have white skin and blue eyes then you will be running a real risk. Right now reminds me of the fact that the only time Ronald Regan was “pro” gun control was in California when the Black Panthers said “okay. Guns are allowed”. Reality hit hard In that moment and all of a sudden gun control wasn’t a bad thing. I don’t know what the answer is but everyone has to understand that every single non white, non blue eyed person going to the polls is taking a risk and should be applauded for it.
Totally agree, but they shouldn't just be applauded, they should also be supported. If you have the privilege of having white skin, then go to the polling station with your black and brown neighbours, to give safety in numbers and to show them they are supported and appreciated for running that risk.
I'm a Brit and years ago I lived in an area where a white nationalist candidate was standing (for the BNP - horrible people). They 'campaigned' a lot in our area in a bid to sow fear. A family of Pakistani descent lived across the street from us. They were citizens but terrified to vote. So twenty of us got together and went with them. We accompanied them there and back and, when the goons outside the polling station started (which is illegal here), my white friend called the Police and they were removed. Afterwards, the family asked if we would help their friends vote, too - so we did.
Our actions that day sent out two clear messages: that racists weren't welcome, and that we stood as one community. Not only did the BNP never field a candidate in our area again, we had better community relations with our neighbours. They invited us to barbecues and family functions, and we did the same in return. We achieved the very thing the racists were trying to stop.
So supporting your neighbours won't just give you a fairer election result - if your area is like mine then it'll also raise the community spirit and make it a better place for everyone to live in.
United we stand, divided we fall.
Thanks for your vlog you said it best! This Republican party should be ashamed of themselves.
Filling out my absentee ballot at this very moment. The other 3 surviving members of my family are doing the same downstairs.
This is the first time most of my family have voted absentee (my dad, who passed from covid, used to do it because he was a cop, and I did it because I'm a trucker) and my sister is talking about how much she likes it because she actually has the ability to look up the people running for local office.
Sessa722 I’m sorry about your father. No one should have to go through this. I hope he did not die in vain and all Texans have a voice in this election come hell or high water.
They were willing to die for Democracy. We better do the same.
Absofuckinglutely. Hoorah
Me (wiping my glasses with a neat hanky) Ready when you are.
One of the most enduring images in my entire LIFE - is a news reel of people queuing to vote, along side a blood soaked sidewalk and a dismembered leg.
They're willing to die for trump tyranny like good little cultists. I will live for justice for all.
Democracy only works for the living. Both sides have the potential to become "fascist" if we cannot maintain the integrity and belief in a just system.
You Sir, are my most trusted News source. Very Non-Partisan, spitting out straight facts.
This is our only chance to get this right. Straight democratic ticket. Sort out policy later. Save our republic.
“Just a thought,” nah. You spitting straight facts
When ol Beau ain't smiling at the "Just a thought" outro, you know he got some other kinda thoughts on his mind that ain't to friendly.

Looks like we have our American version of the Iraqi Republican Guard.
Brown shirts. I would tell these "piss boys" of Trump to read about what Hitler did to the brown shirts once he got into power...but it looks like reading isn't there strong point
@Jim ray If I thought you lived here I'd stay silent. Having said that, feel free to tell your coworkers at Glavset that I said "Yob tvoyu mat."
@Jim ray what would a petulant child know? About as much as you... but at least they have time to change. Have a good day.
That has become our new sad reality.

I grew up in FLORIDA and moved away for grad school. I did not know MEN like you existed in FLORIDA props to your Wife for finding you.
Yesssss the Goal is to make us Give Up! We won’t give up!
In Texas early voting begins Oct 13th I'll be there. I've also applied to be a poll worker.
Awesome! Thank you & stay safe!
Good for you. Be safe out there. #countryoverparty
Toby Leonard thank you
Here in SC they keep, intentionally I believe, going back and forth on whether or not you need a witness signature. They are hoping to keep it confusing so they can invalidate votes. If you live in SC make sure to get a witness signatire regardless what they say.
Wow that is definitely intentional.
Live in Spartanburg county, can confirm
EVERYBODY GET A WITNESS!
They've allowed me to regain my rage and disgust. Which saved me from last week's depression
It would make everybody feel safe if all the former military of America put on their best suit and came out to vote it would be quite a spectacle.
They put their lives on the line on foreign soil. Do they really have to do it at home to save democracy in America. Home of the brave and the free or a new colony of Russia. God help you all. Love and prayers from Ireland.🇮🇪
"There is no act of treachery or meanness of which a political party is not capable; for in politics there is no honour." - Benjamin Disraeli
"We the people...!"/"We..." the problem!
"we" humans, got lazy, and let government do our "duty" for us!
Please help us fix this! By Christmas!
There's one extra way! Please consider!
Young folks must employ this, too! "We" needs you!
(A vet asking you millions of other Vets, to provide our backbone!)!
Here; in a 21st century context! [Note: paraphrasing!]!
For comprehensive contingencies managing!
"Civil defense is emergency [contingencies] management!" (EMI / FEMA)!
Thus; cyclical phases of: mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery (EMI / FEMA)!
Through an IEMS / Integrated [contingencies] Management System, which includes all sectors: private, public, and government (EMI / FEMA)!
FEMA recommends we maintain secondary EOCs (Emergency / [contingencies] Operations Centers)!
"We" can use that ! To build our own, for "We", as the "4th Branch!" And; "We" don't need anyone's permission!
Over the decades, our governments have claimed everything "civil defense" as under "Civil Defense"; thus, under government's authority and controls! And, "they" are not likely to let go of such absolute power!... Thus; now it's called, "DHS / Dept. of Homeland Security, which is in authority over FEMA!" [Note: your local DES Director can launch an FBI investigation on anyone, as spite, alone! Thus; Nazi capabilities and tactics!]!
Folks, "civil defense" is "civilian", thus, any human cashing a government paycheck, may be "civil government", but that $$$ represents a serious conflict of interest, especially for any person appointed as DES Director, by the newly elected "party!" [Note, instances: A good FEMA Director, James Witt, ousted! Or; "Project Impact", w/ the goal, "to build disaster resistant communities!", was ended by GW Bush! (Yes! It needed improvement; but, it focused on getting you and me actively involved in our community's "civil defense" system!]!
Thus; how to get back in, to take it back, and make it a good, civilian, perpetual, social system!
[Thus; a suggested name must equal it's goal, mission, and objective s! One that connects all sectors, again... Clean and democratic!
I highly recommend, the name: DES Support Systems! More later.].
(Imagine having your own NASA type control center capabilities; with, hands-on learning potential, within academics! Imagine clicking an icon, that takes you to your own contingencies management site, for any issues: maps, charts, graphs, reports, studies, data, surveys, polls, etc! A place to plug in your views!)!
Start with, we millions of Vets, for a quick backbone! We are civilians, who know stuff, like tactics, strategies, a professional system!
(And; I might add, there's a reason most of us departed after our first tour = hate for anything smelling like tyranny... bullies holding power ! Vet are only a quick place to start, where all can get involved, as part of a system with nominated / specially selected leadership, from among our best! Folk won't follow anyone less, in this!).
What I'm proposing is the contingencies management system FEMA recommends, from their many studies.
It's our back way, back into "their" system; while, such actually belongs to "We", since "we" ain't welcome, through the front! "We" got lazy, and let "them" take over our responsibilities!
"We" can take it back, very quickly... Basically, over night, from our homes!
Make a logistics / liaison NGO! With a matrix organizational structure!
To provide us with an easy projects management capability, where we can all pick our areas of interest, and can contribute our voices!
Where ""We" can map our governments, pick them apart, streamline them, clean out the excess, and the filth, for an efficient respectable republic!
From within a "Project" (eg, voting), "we" can then choose a "Mission" area to study, and to contribute (who, when, where, what, why, how...)!
Reviving this system will restore gov. oversight for "We"!
= Project - Whistles Blower
- to install a buffer!
= A place to speak our minds, in complete continuous safety, with folks we chose to be available trusted options, to represent them, as middle buffers, who work to resolve issues. Not appointed by gov, like what gov usually sends "to help!"
Do you know, the spy saying, something like "safety in enemies midst!"
This is our way to send in trustworthy folks, to "infiltrate" "their" systems, to end corruption!
Thus; the legally accepted way! Point blank, and deliberately, in "their" faces! Now! By you and me! Over night!
Again; "their" system belongs to all of you!
However, "We" must preserve a system of "Professional First Responders", too! Thus, "We" needs both!
Thus; those under paycheck type restrictions, with the rest of us helping out, as we should be, anyway!
"DES" ... Support Systems
"Disaster & Emergency Services" (= gov / "Professional Responders").
While;...
... We can be the "Support Systems" (thus; access, again!)!
However, it's for humans, which means, inclusion! Thus; all !!!
(I recommend a movie, to help with understanding. While the movie excludes "politicians", our's can not! "We" must stomp ego out of it ... = no titles, labels, etc.
When the movie ends, I invite you to help to create a contemporary version of that portrayed system!
I suppose, in a great way, "We" can take up where they're drama left off, but I real life!
"Meet John Doe", w/ Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwick).
Note this!
DHS is potentially illegal, because it's built on "the Civil Defense Act of 1950." Which states nothing of the private sector! Thus; along the way, we got lazy and let gov take over our responsibilities in "civil defense!"
And; bad leaders have turned it into a gestapo, against us, in the name of emergency management!
Also note, the old 1964 Civil Defense manuals!
Thus; "active and passive civil defense being crucial components of national security posture!"
- "active" = "armed" "Minute..."
- "passive" = facilities, Coms, etc.
Thus; I highly recommend the Swiss example, built into our republic! Immediately!
The gapping hole, the way in: FEMA is desperately trying to get folks involved in community emergency management, to help manage all disasters!
They stated the creation of CEM Comprehensive Emergency Management
= (Cyclically phased: preparedness, response, recovery, and mitigation)
And;
The IEMS = "Integrated Emergency Management System!"
Which is their plea for "all sectors to be involved: public, private, and government"!
(Find a dictionary:
- "civil" = non military, non police, non eclesia, ...!
- "civil defense"...!)
However; note the 1776 concept!
"Minute man, woman, kid, elder"
= neighborhood incident management !
= comprehensive contingencies management
Bring it into a 21st century context!
Among us!
To provide a simple basic way to have voice!
"A well regulated [contingencies management system] being necessary to the [national security posture] of a free state, the right of the people to [employ a Swiss type system won't likely be] infringed!"
[Note: I'm a Veteran '73-78, age 64, but I have not ever owned a firearm! Thus; I can't be call militia, since such is kind of a prerequisite... ! ... Or not???
I managed Armories, so l must claim, knowledge and experience, thereof! Nevertheless; stand the f... by, if "My Lady's" liberty is threatened!
I'd rather do so through our accepted legal way to do so!)
This is the only way, to be accepted by DES, for us to gain complete access!
"Their" system actually belongs to "civil defense"!
Look into the different titles it's had, since the 1940s!
Read the dissertation about it, by: Boyce Wayne Blanchard. And; about his ride in FEMA, at EMI.
Thus, FEMA development of grad degrees in such fields; and, requiring Bachelor degrees, for EOC Directors...!
Along the way, "their" system was no longer interested in "civilians"! You'll usually find the door bolted now. The only way in is by invitation or appointment, by gov officialdom!
Hell; I can't even get in any more! Haven't since after 9/11 !
Thus; f..... them! We can build our own. They need us, too!
Join me! Help me!
[I'm old and tech ignorant! But, I have tons of incredible info you need!
I need to pass it on!
I can support all I've written here, and have support letters and recommendations!]
Also; most military personnel receive NCB Warfare Recon, in basic!
"We" need those capabilities:
to monitor, detect, contain, decontaminate, and rescue humans from it!
Use us to initiate a backbone... A standard!
Please note: to those who have served in FET ! "We" need you to help us set this up, here, among mother's, sisters, daughters, grandmothers, families, neighborhoods...!
Help us recon this virus, as well as other diseases, and "clear areas", until "We" are safe, and beyond! Help us contend with contingencies!
"Project" examples: operations, personnel, projects, admin, finance (grant writers, for goodies "We" need for nailing down truth), our web sites (for info and participation, in this "4th Branch" system), surveys, polls, voting, community profiles [utilities, transport systems (roads, rails, shipping...), liaisons, security,, sewage, power, solid waste, storm drains, logistics ,(personnel, supplies, equipment, livestock, transport, storage, e), map government (so we can itemize where, and to who, our tax dollars go .....!), Disaster & Emergency Services (Professional s) with "Support Systems" ("We") = better NCB Recon against chemical, biological, radiological warfare (corner this virus and other diseases, pollution... !...)], continental security, ... Bigfoot (trust me!), amateur Archeology (so folks can fill in what they've witnessed. I've seen lots of stuff no one knows of, for instance...)...! Anything! Everything!
Standing by!
Semper Fidelis!

If it’s a Republican, vote them out!
"The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything." Joseph Stalin.
Another famous Russian autocrat has similar ideas- Mitch McConnell.
That's why you vote overwhelmingly for the good guys who support democracy while you still can. Because they'll count the votes honestly.
Remember, Russians had no representative democracy at all before 1906, when the first State Duma was elected in response to the first Russian revolution in 1905. The only people who could vote were male civilians over the age of 25. The first and second Duma representatives were largely progressives, so the Czar and his ministers disenfranchised the peasants (they could vote, but landowners' votes counted more) and the third and fourth Dumas had far more representatives from the business and landowning classes and made little attempt to reform anything. And that led to the 1917 Revolution.
Trump is suing Philadelphia because they won't let his goons in
Someone have to explain to me how the US call itself a democracy! When you choose the voters, is not a democracy.
look at the smaller picture as conservatives do.
ignore the gerrymandering
People are voting. Politicians get elected dependent on the votes of the electoral college (which theoretically vote for the people that they are supposed to based on geographic reigon)
Therefore a democracy.
@@Muykle But again, like Beau says many times, we lost the meaning of words. What part of only 30% of the people are allowed to vote? How suppressing voting is part of american values? If I allow only 30% of the people to vote, the other 70% cannot participate. Am I wrong? Democracy should be the government elected by the majority of the people. Even here in the 5th world, voting is a sacred right and a duty for each citizen, if you don't vote, there will be consequences. I concede that they can even manipulate some votes," after" you voted, but you have the duty to participate in such an important event. Like voting in workdays??? what kind of importance the election and voting has in the US values? If I have to lost my job to vote, or lose money, it's kind of a penalty! I really don't get what kind of "democracy" is that. Here elections are set in holidays, don't take more than 5 min to vote, elections places are located near our houses to not cause much trouble, lots of them, and 95% of people vote. How hard can it be? If we here in the shitholes countries can do it, anyone can do it.
You are absolutely right. Which is why our system needs to do a serious reset and restructuring. But to me, seeing how things have gone in other countries with similar circumstances, I will be extremely surprised if there is no civil unrest on (or after) our election day, regardless of who actually wins.
@@pauloroberto7875 The horrifying truth about conservatives in America is that facts don't matter to them. Obtaining power is the end and means and what they believe is the greatest good. Let it happen and grant power to those with power and you will be spared compared to those you declare as enemies. What grants those with power to gain more power is what is "true".
They lack the imagination to believe in anything better than this. Also they love seeing black people being miserable as an "american value". America was founded on stolen land, stolen labor, and lies on paper.
If we make the lies on paper true it would not be quite the same United States of America. but a land of people that liberated themselves from their worst impulses. It would probably still have a similar culture of believing ourselves to be "innovators" in some means or another.
@@pauloroberto7875 - The president has helped to corrupt our voting by tampering with our postal service, having the postmaster general purposefully cause delays with mail delivery, having state governors changing the rules around to confuse voters, having polling places shut down, or moved entirely, among many other things. Yes, this is a country trying/pretending to be a democracy, but is quickly sliding down into the unholy crevice of the extreme alt-right, because the Republican party does not want to play fairly or just simply cooperate for the greater good of the country and its' citizens. Not to say that our Democratic party is perfect and without flaws and many issues as well. But we got to start cleaning house somewhere, and that is by exercising our right and privilege to vote. #countryoverparty
When you have the opportunity for vote early.. DO IT!
You sir, I believe, are spot on in your assessment. VOTE VOTE VOTE because our democracy depends on it.
I'm a white male in the bible belt and it still took me several attempts to get my early ballot in. Failed state is an understatement. I can only imagine how hard it is across the country.
I saw this comment on TikTok today, “TRUMP TO 2024, THEN ALL HIS KIDS 8 YEAR'S EACH, 2 SAVE THE USA...”
Now are you going to vote??
This really scares me.
They’re counting on us trusting what we’ve always taken for granted. The rules have been changed. They don’t care that they no longer have the consent
I like being able to use Beau as a barometer. I know if he's pissed and actually shows it, shit is off the rails.
Some of us have skin colors that make voting in secret tough - nothing against Beau’s advice. It’s great advice.
I will be voting in person early and checking online making sure it registers. Biden/Harris 2020!!! We gotta do this.
Every vote matters. Vote Biden/Harris. Can we have the UN monitor our elections?
And do what if the election is fouled? We're most of the UN's ability to make a nation behave.
I wish they would. Of course republicans will say oh that's absurd that's ridiculous. But it's absolutely what we need. Third party non stake holder official observer.
If memory serves, the US has been blocking UN election inspectors' requests to oversee our elections since at least the Bush administration.
As far as I remember militias started scaring themselves about UN intervention in USA since the day USSR dissolved.
Try your best to clean your house on your own. Don't put any hopes in any outside force (natural or supernatural) helping you do to that. At best it's a road to become a puppet of that outside force, at worst it's getting yourself trampled by inside regressive forces AND being on a road to be partitioned by outside forces.
Wow look at the anger in the eyes. Beau looks very frustrated but so am I!
I was there when they finally got to vote. I remember encouraging them to vote, didn’t matter who, but just vote because not voting was a victory for the Taliban. I remember the day after work when locals came back to the base, how happy they were and showing off their purple finger.
So sad that we are seeing the same Taliban style intimidation tactics in the United States. And from the party that brags about having divine mandate and moral superiority.
I live in PA and filled out 2 applications for a mail in ballot. Never came for weeks now. I have to go to the poll and vote even though it isn't what I wanted to do. Suppress the Vote 2020
In addition to that ploy, I will tell you what happened in Georgia during the primaries and the pandemic. Georgia is a huge state. That being said, the Rethuglican Governor Kemp, seemingly ordered that most polling places close. With only 2...yes the number after 1 polling places open. People waited for literally 12 hours trying to vote. This accomplished several things, 1) it made it exceedingly hard if not downright impossible for a poor person to make last minute arrangements to go to a polling station. 2) With lines that were impossibly long that also made happen the simple fact that polls were closed before people could even cast a ballot.
Everyone spread this as much as you can! Stay alert! Don’t let them win! 💪🏻
Canadian here, I hope you continue making these videos during and after the shit hits the fan. Rooting for your vision of America. Freedom for all
I want my finger dyed blue on November 3rd
Order your fountain pen ink now. I have mine. 👍
I wish you all the best from Belgium. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Meanwhile, stay safe in different ways.
i wish that every local television channel would air this video as a PSA 5 times a day from now until election day . The more people see this hopefully the more they will understand and knowledge is power . The more you know....
As a Texan in one of those cities where they will only have 1 polling center, I am livid!! These people opened up our state after 3 weeks so they can't lie and say this is a health issue.
I look at all your videos and I don’t believe I’ve ever seen you this infuriated...with good cause
#vote!
My husband and I have lived in the same Atlanta suburban house for 20+ years and voted absentee frequently, with ease, before. He's a registered Republican (voting Biden, Ossoff, Warnock, don't worry); I'm not. He got his absentee ballot Monday and dropped it off at the box, literally across the street from our house. The web site says mine was issued the same day, but I'm still waiting. Same thing happened in the primaries. That ballot arrived 5 days after the election. They made me sign an affidavit that I hadn't voted by mail when I went to the polls, so I had to wait twice as long in line. Took almost 2 hours when I've NEVER seen a line there before, not even 2008. What's next? Am I'm gonna have to crawl naked across broken glass to cast my blue vote? Fine! I'll bring lots of Neosporin and a pack of Band-Aids.
I'm in Volusia county in Florida and I can't imagine all of us driving to Daytona to vote. Wtf.
Beau I want to thank you for your videos and I hope that my encouragement will help to keep you going. I travel to Austin from time to time and because I have family down there, most of whom do not agree with me and apparently you about politics. My grandfather was the first business agent for plumbers and pipe fitters local 286 in Austin in the 40’s. Keep the faith brother.
Some counties in Texas cover a few hundred miles. It would be very difficult for people to drive for a few hours to drop off their ballot. And in very populated counties like Harris (Houston) and Dallas county...there could be very long car lines to drop off a ballot at one single location. This is a hardship for a lot of people. The governor knows this. People should be able to drop off at their polling locations that are already monitored.
You are such a "speaker of truth." I honestly look forward to all your pearls of wisdom. God bless you, Beau!
I love you brother from another mother. Thanks for sharing our frustration. With this horrible step in suppressing our vote. Why are they doing this? F them and vote
Beau, thankyou for your very correct anger at this. I just hope, the harder they try, the more get angry and vote, just to prove that we can't be ignored or suppressed! 👍💖💞✌😷🎃
Beau, amigo... keep up the fight. We cannot allow ourselves to be the enemy's pawns, and we need calm stern voices.
Laws are for everyone else. - Republican 2020 Platform
Dump trump 2020. Dump republicans 2020!
I'm 65, will be wearing my mask proudly and doing early, in-person voting. NOTHING WILL STOP ME.🌊
Perfect T-shirt. Again. Well matched with your completely justified righteous indignation which I share
I live in Texas. The level of confusion is frustrating as hell. You can vote by mail! Wait no you can't. Wait, you can, but not for covid. Or maybe you can? You can drop off the mail-in ballot early at lots of places! Actually no you can't anymore. Early voting has been extended and now starts on the 13th! Hmmm maybe not. A court case is challenging it.
One party in this state really doesn't seem to be a big fan of democracy.
The righteous anger is refreshing. Though, I sincerely wish it wasn't necessary or as justified as it is.
You have been such an important voice, I thank you every day.
Big fan... Continue to speak the truth
Thank you for your voice against dictatorship.
Anyone else in Texas, just remember: for early (in-person) voting, you can go to *any* polling station in your home county.
S H : Early voting dates have been marked on both my paper and phone apps for over a month. I cannot imagine why ANYONE would wait until Nov. 3.
Why can you only vote in your county? I'm from Australia, I can vote (including early) from anywhere in the country for our federal elections and anywhere in the state for state elections.
Local elections do require me to vote from at least an adjacent council area though. Oh, and no ID needed, I just need to know my name and registered address that gets checked against a copy of the electoral roll.
That’s in-person and her state; sadly, US has no federal voting rules. I live in CA and, if you’re out of the country or want to vote, you can do it online, by mail and fax.
@@Kathdath States set their own election rules. They decide how, where, and (to an extent) when they happen. Federal vs. state powers is a can of worms you probably don't want to get into.
Texas is a mixed bag, but at least the "any resident of a county can vote at any polling station in the county during early voting" thing means there's not much incentive for them to try any shenanigans with the availability of polling stations, at least.
@@seanheath4492 Well until this last week at least...
This is a VERY IMPORTANT MESSAGE!! Terrific insight Beau!!!
Righteous rant, Beau! Thank you. I believe you are correct about the Republican strategy for this election. They’ve been working on it and refining it for a couple of decades now, with voter ID laws and gerrymandering gone rampant.
I hate how this is going down. Purple is my favorite color, but I don’t need to depend on getting to vote so I can have a purple-inked finger.
