I, like many of you, have been contemplating our predicament since election night.

We are in a losing war for our democracy and I'm not sure we collectively know who our true adversary is.

It's not the voting blocks...white women, Latinos, Gen X. It's not MAGA. It's not even Trump.

It's an insidious power that has been hiding in the shadows for some time...and when the stakes were at their highest in this election, it fully revealed itself.

The American Oligarchy.

They control our Supreme Court, much of Congress, and the flow of information to the masses via legacy, mainstream and social media.

They decide the national conversation, how to keep us at each other's throats while they continue to amass wealth and power completely unchecked.

They put their thumbs on the scale of justice and poured billions into this election. They chose Trump because he was desperate and would capitulate to their demands. They chose a running mate to replace him in case he became too unhinged to control.

Consider how many disqualifying facts about Trump never saw the light of day...or didn't get the attention they deserved...or got drowned out by propaganda. They took a mentally spent buffoon and presented him as a hero to the masses.

Despite Biden successfully steering us out of a global recession and strengthening our economy, they maintained the national tone about the price of groceries being too high. Despite Trump's obvious mental decline, their media outlets remained reticent to press the issue.

We struggle to unite as a nation because they're too good at keeping us divided. We are drowning in disinformation because they control all of it.

They have successfully created imaginary villains for us to fight...each other.

It seems like we are a democracy careening towards fascism, when the reality is they're using the specter of fascism to keep us on edge while they turn America into a compliant oligarchy.

Whether you are a democrat, republican, independent or MAGA, we have a common foe.

Some of us just don't know it yet.

Trump is Musk’s client. Musk is Putin’s client. Putin is Xi’s client.

THEY BROKE THE CODE

[NotSilencedNow @notsilencednow]

So this is what happened....

There was a trial on the Dominican Voting Machines to determine whether they could be hacked and whether the 2020 race was manipulated.

The republican party brought in a group of hackers who went to work on a machine that had been taken out of service for just this process.

The hackers broke the code and were able to find a way to hack the system... albeit without it being connected to any other source and the unit being in service to begin with.

THEY BROKE THE CODE.

For purposes of the 2020 vote, the hackers failed because ... sure .... anyone can break the code given enough time and free access to the equipment and programming chip....

BUT, THEY BROKE THE CODE.

So.... the Republican party left that courtroom with their tail between their legs, loosers.....

BUT...THEY HAD THE PROGRAMMING CODE TO THE VOTING MACHINES....

Hmmm... Three years (apprx.) later and they have had hackers in China, Russia and via Elon's web of miscreant's reviewing programming code for the voting machines. Machines that are plugged into the system and ready to be used for 2024. No need to wait until the last minute....

Everyone remembers how the entire computer system throughout the world was taken down by the Microsoft programming glitch 6 months ago.....

Get the programming code, twist a few of the dna strands to create a virus that eats data (selective few only) and then release it into the wild using a software update.

Selective deletion.

Elon has been talking to Russia for months. Midget Mike (aka the Evil Leprechaun) has been in contact with Russia and other axis countries. Trump has held impromptu meetings with leaders the USA wouldn't even shake hands with ...... Add it up folks.

THEY BROKE THE CODE.....

I don't fault anyone for suspecting the guy, who was criminally indicted for trying to steal the 2020 election, might have stolen the 2024 election.

You'd be naive not to suspect foul play.

He is the architect of distrust in our institutions, the sower of doubt in our election processes, the catalyst of our national discord.

Rather than spend endless hours pontificating on why he won, the media should spend their time verifying the results.

Maybe then they'll get people to actually tune in.

If you have anything to add, do so. I'll end with this: protect your mental hygiene. Cut off people you can't 100% trust. Red flags are a matter of when, not if. Build your circle of survival. Block the charismatic grifters who told you both parties are the same or not to vote.

I’m going to suicide. I thought about it last night but decided to wait until I saw how the Trump administration shakes out. I shudder to think how bad it will be once Vance and Musk and Thiel take over in either the background or the foreground. I have it all planned out and don’t even care how it affects my husband and family. I can’t stop crying and don’t want to live in a fascist state. It’s not going to only affect the US but the world.

I blame Merrick Garland for the situation we are in. If he had done his job, Trump and the coup plotters would have been held to account right after the insurrection. I also question why Biden kept him on when it became apparent that Garland was not going to do anything about the

Since Biden has total immunity, can he do anything to mitigate the damage about to be done in January? He has 2 months to use it. Maybe revoke Musk’s citizenship and deport him? Will he make sure that Trump is sentenced and incarcerated when he is sentenced in a couple of weeks? Trump is still a private citizen. I have so many questions. Serious questions. Can anyone help me out with your ideas?
