‘Later crew. While it’s been (sort of) fun, there are bluer skies ahead.

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

For us in Ukraine, and all across Europe, it has always been crucial to hear the words of the then 45th President of the United States about “peace through strength.”

When this principle becomes the policy of the 47th President, both America and the entire world will undoubtedly benefit.

It’s no coincidence that Ronald Reagan is mentioned so often these days—people want confidence, they want freedom, they want a normal life. For us, that means a life free from Russian aggression, with a strong America, a strong Ukraine, and strong allies.

Victoria Nuland to @mckaycoppins: "Foreign counterparts would say it to me straight up, 'The first Trump election—maybe people didn’t understand who he was, or it was an accident. A second election of Trump? We’ll never trust you again.'”

I really thought white women would come through.

Lol.

Well, they did. For Trump.

Canada, you may hear loud bangs coming from the basement for the next month or so. Don't worry about it. Just make sure the door is shut and locked.

Countless Americans are endangered now on a scale and intensity almost unheard of in modern America. Our first responsibility is to protect these people and resist these forces.

In the coming days there's gonna be a lot of opining about what the Harris campaign did wrong, but this election was not an indictment of Kamala Harris. It was an indictment of America.

Perhaps I started my criminal investigations of Trump a bit too late. But I'm comfortable that my successor Aileen Cannon will keep them going.

[Anonymous @YourAnonNews]

Something doesn't add up.
In 2020 Biden had 81 Million votes, Trump had 74 Million votes.
In 2024 Harris got 66 Million votes, Trump got 71 million votes.
15 Million Democrats decided to sit this one out?
3 Million MAGA decided to sit this one out?
No fucking way.

[Mueller, She Wrote @MuellerSheWrote]

I hope in the coming days someone is able to explain how we had record turnout but 18M fewer votes than 2020. Both of those things can’t be true.
