@Tom_Suozzi Let me guess this straight. 18 months of Trump fascist horror wasn’t enough to get you to create a platform, but a couple of lefties win primaries and now you’re panicked? I am not even a bug DSA fan and that’s frickin pathetic but explains a lot 🙄

[Terry Moran 🇺🇸 @TerryMoran]

It’s not about arguments. It’s about facts.

I know one great fact about American elections, and I know it because the Republican Party has proved it to me:

There is no election fraud of any consequence anywhere in the United States.

The Republican Party and its allies, FOR DECADES, have been searching high and low, in every corner of our country, for evidence of election fraud.

This effort has been made with vast sums of money and other resources, and with some of the greatest powers in our nation at the party’s disposal:

A presidential commission under President Donald Trump.

The Department of Justice under President Donald Trump, armed with the resources of the FBI, and the powers of subpoena.

Committees of Congress under Republican control, also armed with the powers of subpoena and the investigative resources of the first branch of government.

State legislatures under Republican control, also with subpoena powers, have launched similar efforts to find evidence of election fraud.

Republican-controlled states have set up special commissions and task forces, some with subpoena powers, all well-funded and with access to the state’s electoral systems.

Conservative academics and think tanks have launched projects seeking out evidence of election fraud.

Fox News and the rest of MAGA media have dedicated significant resources to finding evidence of election fraud.

What is the result of this enormous Republican effort to find election fraud?

Ask The Heritage Foundation.

For nearly a decade, Heritage has maintained an “Election Fraud Database.”

The database contains “proven instances of election fraud.”

It covers elections going back nearly fifty years.

That’s billions and billions of American votes.

Right now, the total number of proven instances of election fraud that Heritage can document is:

1620.

That’s an infinitesimal number, vanishingly small, and it is solid proof of two things:

1. Some individuals commit election fraud.

2. There is no evidence at all of systemic or even widespread election fraud anywhere in the USA.

The election-fraud panic is the Big Lie of our time.

It is peddled by people who know better. Their own investigations over decades demonstrate that.

Stop trying to subvert our democracy.

IT WAS ALWAYS DUKE.

@Section17Media Yes petty. But IF the on3 dude’s source was the other tweet then he should be credited. But if his source was Nik’s agent, Nik himself, a school source, etc then no.

[TheRealThelmaJohnson @TheRealThelmaJ1]

MAGA is now like "I'll take mean tweets, $8 gas and nuclear war over gender neutral restrooms any day"

[Michael Gallipo @DevilJMG]

So apparently Geno has been learning from Danny. Even happier now that SC got the dub

@theBookDevourer Would be super awesome if Amazon would even pretend they had male readers when they come out with their first read choices 😏 March isn’t quite as bad as December was, but pretty close lol

[Michael Gallipo @DevilJMG]

@amazonbooks @amazon reupping my tweet from December. With your First Reads choices could you at least pretend you have male readers? I mean like maybe one measly option?

[Michael Gallipo @DevilJMG]

@theblockspot This isn’t a serious post right? If you’re telling me Duke has “no chance” that equates to what +10000 or greater? I’ll put a sizable bet on those odds. A how you put UConn second…. Crazy. Like I said this can’t actually be serious

[Joe Walsh @WalshFreedom]

We’ve never, ever had this before. A President completely untethered to truth. I mean completely untethered to truth. That’s such a bad thing. But you know what’s even worse? Way, way too many people don’t care. And way too much of the media no longer cares.

[Michael Gallipo @DevilJMG]

@BarstoolBDevils It’s a learning process. Cayden and Maliq need to learn to preserve their fouls cuz there’s no one behind them. I hope they win again tonight not just for the obv reasons but because they need reps as a new starting 5.

[Bruce Arthur @bruce_arthur]

I almost appreciate how Trump has exposed how vacant every single high profile conservative belief was: free speech, states’ rights, letting the market decide, NATO, right to bear arms, democracy, all of it. It’s been an empty, malicious political project for decades and decades

[Michael Gallipo @DevilJMG]

@mckenzielaw Fair enough. Totally get it and you are hardly alone. Also I suspect bridges will be totally burnt before this is over. I just worry that in terms of general college football perception, Mensah playing for Miami and Duke getting some cash will be seen as him winning & Duke losing

[Michael Gallipo @DevilJMG]

@AndresNoyola5 @mckenzielaw Fascinatingly the only people I have seen argue this online are Miami fans 🤔

[Michael Gallipo @DevilJMG]

@McCannSportsLaw @Sportico One can be on either side of this but can we at least not pretend that Mensah entering the portal had anything to do with him being unhappy or disgruntled. Dude made a 1:30 hype video about coming back until someone tossed an insane offer at him.

[Michael Gallipo @DevilJMG]

@AlexDonno Rooting for Hoosiers by 100 now

[Section 17 Media @Section17Media]

In what will go down as one of the wildest seasons in Duke Football history, the Blue Devils wind up with 9 wins, a bowl game victory, and an outright ACC championship. Holy crap.

[Michael Gallipo @DevilJMG]

@amazonbooks @amazon while I understand that First Reads are a free perk of Prime, is it too much to ask that you at least pretend you have male readers? Maybe one measly book that isn’t subcategorized as Women’s _______?

[Michael Gallipo @DevilJMG]

@SealsLax @King_Giles7 Love that he acts surprised it went in 😋
