MAGA: I just don't understand anything about why people keep--
Me: Sssshhh, the first 5 words were perfect, stop there.
MAGA: (carefully counting on fingers; losing track, starting over, muttering)
Me: Bless your heart.
@HQNewsNow Serious question: how will their "Trump friendliness" manifest when he's gone? Are they gonna pivot to Junior? To JD?
Whether it's illness, death, or the end of his term, his presence will only be a fraction of the business's life.
@The1776Warriors@AntiTrumpCanada@JamieBonkiewicz Given the size of the US nuclear stockpile, everyone on the planet has the right to be critical of the foolish cultists who elected the toddler in chief.
If a roomful of Danes were stupid enough to wear fake bandages, no one would care. But the US has lots of nukes, soo... 🤷🏼♂️
Among the most critical roles of the press is to hunt down the truth when officials are being dishonest or untransparent.
@RPS_Schools has decided to conceal alleged financial abuse from taxpayers. Good on @RichmonderNews and @VAIReports for pushing back.

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.

Last month, Chief Admin Officer Odie Donald II blocked an account on Twitter after the user made critical comments.
Just one problem: according to federal caselaw, officials cannot block users from official accounts just for expressing their opinions 🧵

@mark_slapinski@wheredkittygo I just got off the radio with some extremely authentic aliens.
Area 51 was just the beginning.
Shit's about to get wild.
And you know that I'm telling you the absolute truth because I am offering absolutely no specifics--no names, no times, no dates, no sourcing.

@RichmondPolice in their latest example of forthcoming community action:
Official: "RPD remains committed to transparency regarding ALPR use."
@SamuelParkerRTD : "Great, then can we see the records?"
Official: "No."
@CentristAllWay@BraddrofliT@ellimacblack Can you point to the sentence that you believe says (or equals) "I think there was fraud"?
All I see is concern for delays which guve traction to conspiracists 🤷🏼♂️
We asked to see the queries and audits to test whether Richmond's cameras have the same or similar vulnerabilities reported in other cities.
City officials cited a state statute that gives them discretion to conceal the requested data.

@RealMihaiTudor@MikeLevin My dude, comrade Putin was wasted out of his mind when he typed this for you. I don't know what it sounds like in Russian, but in English it sounds like some moron got loose in the tweet shop.
