A reminder on the evolution of 2020 "stolen election" theories: First we had mail-in fraud + Dominion + "illegal law changes" (Nov–Dec 2020) then → Georgia election workers + foreign interference/Italygate (Dec 2020–Jan 2021, concurrent) then → 2,000 Mules (ballot stuffers) (2022) then → social-media-censorship revival via Twitter Files (Dec 2022) then → renewed foreign-interference claims (2024–present).
Through all this, we've had:
1. Dominion getting $787 million from Fox News for defamation
2. Rudy Giuliani admitting he lied about Georgia election workers (and the jury awarding the workers $148 million)
3. Sidney Powell admitting in court "no reasonable person would conclude" her claims of election fraud “were truly statements of fact"
4. The Gateway Pundit retracting claims of election fraud in Atlanta
5. The Media company that put out D'Souza's 2,000 Mules film apologizing and removing it after law enforcement proved it falsely accused people of fraud
6. Newsmax and One America News Network (OANN) settling with Smartmatic
It is NOT true that none of these allegations have seen a court room. Most have. Of the 64 cases of fraud that Trump and his legal team filed in court, 30 were dismissed that included a hearing on the merits, 14 were voluntarily dismissed by Trump and his allies before a hearing, and just 20 were dismissed for lack of standing before a hearing on the merits. One case, involving far too few votes to impact the election, prevailed in Pennsylvania. That case was about voter ID deadlines, not election fraud.
Those are the facts.
Whatever happens Thursday night, please try to remember them.
@jolan_pdf Still a personal favorite! En parlant de Drag Race, je vous ai proposé une interview en duo avec Marianne James et Créatine Price de Drag Race France S4 par mail. Ça vous tente ? [email protected]
I’m running for the U.S. Senate.
Billionaires have taken over Texas and taken over America — but together, we can take power back for working people.

The news out of the DC mayor’s press conference is that her lawyers apparently do not believe they have grounds to challenge President Trump’s declaration of a DC crime emergency. The city appears to be surrendering to a federal takeover of its police department.
I’m pissed, but mostly I’m just sad for the millions of people who will suffer because of what Republicans did today.
Many, if not most, are Trump voters. And most probably have no idea what this law will actually mean for them.
“Well, that’s what they voted for.“
“They should’ve known better.”
Sure, maybe. But the brunt of the pain will be felt by babies, kids, the elderly, the sick, the disabled, the poor, people who are barely making it, people who fled danger to save their children.
They don’t deserve this cruelty. No one does. Especially not in the richest country on Earth, where people with the most power just used it to make themselves even richer.
Donald Trump’s net worth has grown by $3 billion since January, but Republicans cared more about making him happy than they did about the people who sent them to Washington to make their lives better.
It should enrage all of us, but it should also motivate us to beat the everliving hell out of every last Republican politician in ‘26 and again ‘28.
17 million people just lost health care.
18 million kids just lost school meals.
3 million Americans just lost food assistance.
And $3.5 trillion was added to the deficit.
All for a tax cut for Trump’s billionaire donors.
The ultimate betrayal.
I remember joining Josh in Vienna, Austria, as he negotiated the Iran deal — and his dismay when Trump pulled out. What we're seeing today is a direct consequence of that reckless decision.
Proud to see him share his perspective in TIME. He's got a good publicist at home ;)
Rep. Melissa Hortman was a bright shining light of a human being. She was my good friend. We went to law school together and entered the legislature at the same time. She was one of the most extraordinary public servants I’ve ever known. Her assassination is a loss not just for her family, but for all of Minnesota. 💔
It's a great day in the gayest city in the world.
As we mark 50 years of Pride in the District—and welcome WorldPride to all eight wards—we're proud to celebrate DC's story of pride, perseverance, and progress.
Happy Pride Month, DC! 🌈
HAPPY PRIDE TO ALL, INCLUDING THE SCUM THAT SPENT THE LAST 4 MONTHS RAISING PRICES & MAKING LIFE WORSE FOR THE FAMILIES OF OUR COUNTRY THROUGH WARPED RADICAL MAGA AGENDA.
BUT FEAR NOT, DEMS WILL FLIP THE HOUSE & MAKE LIFE BETTER! AGAIN, HAPPY PRIDE MONTH, AND GOD BLESS AMERICA!
