Why vote #upanddowntheballot? Watch @YelloPain’s video https://t.co/r8BaN043Dj @timdesiree’s website: “Watch to understand why voting for House Representatives is just as important as voting for the President, and listen to Desiree's important message at the end of the video.”

A short thread on what refusal to comply can look like, with specifics, examples, and ideas for what the future may hold.

Actually IDK if it's gonna be short, but it's gonna be specific, so read on if you're curious.

[Rick Wilson @TheRickWilson]

Well, well, well.

I'm just SHOCKED.

[Marc Johnson @SolidEvidence]

I knew there were a lot of fake accounts on this platform, but they are usually obvious. I had no idea how intricate and complex the ruse could be.

Get a load of this story.

We’re about to find out whether there are any patriots among Republican Senators, or whether they’ll make excuses for the foreign-backed demolition of our Republic that is now plainly underway.

The teen affected by the avian flu is critical in the ICU.
No one is using airborne precautions.
Imagine how many people this could spread to.
WTF are we doing ?
Have we literally learned nothing the last 5 years ?!??

I beg you to put disabled women in your conversations on reproductive rights. 80% of disabled women will be sexually abused in their lifetime. I’m one of them. Many of us won’t survive pregnancy. Please think about us.

If media had covered Trump’s plans to end entire government agencies, purge universities, deport Dreamers, and fund the government entirely by tariffs like they covered Biden’s debate performance, we wouldn’t be in this mess.

terns can migrate like 40,000 miles a year... so yeah... I'm going to be one of those establishing more of a presence in the blue sky.

Hands up who has been lied to, patronised, or gaslit by a medical professional.

[Angry Staffer @Angry_Staffer]

Oh.

Now they write the story.

Thanks, CBS.

THREAD: Here's a running list of things to consider doing now, during these quiet weeks before the storm. Add your own in the comments and share with anyone who needs help right now.

[Brett Cross @BCross052422]

The citizens of the USA have shown their true colors, and it wasn’t Red White and Blue.

They voted to continue gun violence.
They voted to continue misogyny.
They voted to continue racism.
They voted to continue homophobia.

They voted away your rights.
They voted hatred.

I’m disappointed but not surprised.

When Uziyah was shot in his school, we saw where Texas stood. We saw where the US stood.

I stand in opposition. Last night didn’t change it. Today won’t either.

I will continue to fight for Uzi, for my daughters, for my wife, for my bipoc and LGBTQ friends and family. For the marginalized and disenfranchised.

We aren’t done.

[Angry Staffer @Angry_Staffer]

Looks like I overestimated the American people.

This election isn’t over, but this should have been the biggest electoral landslide in history.

It’s like people are actively voting for America to fail.

🚨 NEVADA: Sec of State Aguilar is reaching out to voters who need to verify their signatures before their ballots can be counted. Look out for a text with instructions.

[Bishop Talbert Swan @TalbertSwan]

White people in America should never again talk about criminal behavior, amongst Black people, immigrants, or anyone else when they are literally casting ballots for a convicted felon to be president of the United States.

[Tristan Snell @TristanSnell]

BREAKING - Over 40 different fake bomb threats have now been called into Democratic-leaning polling places

And they're coming from RUSSIA

This should literally be THE story right now -- it is blatant and brazen election interference to steal the election for Trump

[Tom Bonier @tbonier]

This sort of thing doesn't happen in a healthy democracy.

[Adrienne Mahsa Varkiani @AdrienneMahsa]

Really feels like bomb threats in Arizona, Georgia, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin on Election Day should be a bigger story

[Tristan Snell @TristanSnell]

Key things now:

- LOTS of votes to count; may take DAYS, as in 2020

- Harris a tad behind Biden in cities, but running ahead of Biden in large suburban counties

- Quietly, Dems on track to take House - powerful check on Trump if he wins

Get some sleep. It'll be a long week!
