This woman isn't an illegal alien.
She isn't black.
She isn't a Democrat.
She's the Republican County Clerk of Mesa County, CO.
And she was just convicted of a 9-year prison sentence for hacking voting machines.
She did it to help Trump, driven by his big lie that the election was stolen.
She was caught using her power to subvert Democracy, steal from the taxpayers, and undermine the rule of law.
Remember: MAGA is a cabal of criminals.
Every accusation they make against the other side is a confession.
10 simple facts about North Carolina/Helene:
1. Biden declared a national emergency on Friday
2. Biden declared a major disaster on Saturday, which means survivors can already apply for FEMA funds
3. There are 5,000+ national guardsman in North Carolina
4. The U.S. Coast Guard, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and U.S. Health and Human Services are all working throughout the region
5. Biden spoke to Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp (R) who said he got "everything he asked for" from POTUS in Georgia.
6. Gov. Roy Cooper (D) asked Biden, Harris and Trump to stay out until rescue missions were complete for obvious reasons
7. Local groups and orgs typically lead the immediate relief efforts; the feds support with $$ and additional resources but are rarely the first to respond (again, for obvious reasons)
8. FEMA & local groups are shipping in food and supplies via truck, plane, and even freaking mules!
9. FEMA search and rescue teams are on the ground and have been for days
10. This website is full of people lying about 1-9.
Hell yes, the same judge in Georgia who struck down the state’s republican 6-week abortion ban has now ruled today that the Georgia Election Board MUST certify the result of November’s election. A huge defeat for fascist sedition loving MAGA and a huge win for democracy. 👊
President Biden hits Trump for lying about reaching out to the governor of Georgia post-Helene:
"He is lying. Let me get this straight. He's lying and the governor told him he was lying. The governor told him he's lying. I've spoken to the governor, I spent time with him and he told me he's lying. I don't know why he does this. And the reason I get so angry about — I don't care about what he says about me — I care what he what he communicates to people that are in need, implies that we're not doing everything possible. We are. We are."
Remember what Trump did to North Carolina a couple of years ago after they got hit by a different hurricane? Roy Cooper (D) was governor then. Trump withheld federal funding for about 2 weeks on purpose while people were flooded out of their homes around the coast & further inland.
Hey Republicans, you can all stop with your fake outrage over how FEMA, an organization that project 2025 wants to defund, has dropped the ball. You can stop blaming Joe Biden and Kamala Harris now.
Here are three governors, two Republican and one Democrat, all praising Biden and FEMA for their response.
Move onto your next mock outrage event.
If the fucking SECRET SERVICE can't protect a candidate for president from a maniac with a rifle, how in the hell can we expect a TEACHER to protect a classroom of kids?
Armed security didn’t stop the gunman at a store in Buffalo or a nightclub in Orlando. They couldn’t prevent shootings at schools in Santa Fe, Parkland or Uvalde. And now, even Secret Service couldn’t stop a shooting at a political rally in Pennsylvania.
It’s the fucking guns.
In the richest country in the world, public school teachers should not have to work 2 or 3 jobs just to make ends meet. End of discussion.
And no, I don’t think that is a very radical or controversial concept.
