The X post doesn't connect all the dots. Here's the argument:
The Patriot Act makes it illegal to provide support for terrorists.
Biden provided support for terrorists.
Voting for Biden is a violation of the Patriot Act.
Non sequitor ("it does not follow"). The Patriot Act doesn't prohibit suporting someone who supported terrorists. Sure, you can make an argument about funnelling cash and money laundering and whatnot, but that isn't voting.
Voting isn't a violation of any law. Don't get me wrong, I agree with #1 and #2 above... but the connection to #3 is non-existent.
Good points. The tortured 'logic' in that post is almost as bad as the current court cases against Trump. There are so many disconnects that any fair judge would have thrown them out months ago.
Pretty sure under the Patriot act supporting terrorists makes you a terrorist. That's the whole controversy
Obviously it was always illegal to be a terrorist
Despite all of the flaws in modern elections, it is still impossible to determine which voter voted for which candidate, unless it's 100% for a single candidate, in which case you know how all voters voted. But so long as one person voted for the other candidate, you cannot know which voter that was.
I think this definitely has teeth, but I too, don't see #3 happening. For one thing, most people don't go that deep to decide who to vote for. Many people are one issue voters. But a good lawyer could use this to build a case for sure.

yep, just like being a parent at a school board meeting and getting arrested for being a domestic terrorist, FFS.
I'm displeased with myself for even going half way through that shit before I quit.
