A quick thread as I watch some Democrats poke at the idea that there was something wrong with the election. There wasn't, and let's not find ourselves stoking the same conspiracies as election deniers just because our side didn't win. 1/

I was just in Philadelphia. There is no "heavy law enforcement." Just long lines to vote.

Trump is LYING - again. Don't let him intimidate you.

Remember, if he's LYING - it means he's LOSING.

I voted and so did just about every resident of Springfield!

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

It took several days to count every ballot in 2020, and it’s very likely we won’t know the outcome tonight either. So please keep a few things in mind as you make your voice heard today:

– Thousands of election workers around the country are working hard today. Respect them. Thank them. 

– Don’t share things before checking your sources. 

– Let the process run its course. It takes time to count every ballot.

It’s becoming quite clear not many people have read 1984 🙃

The answer is Kamala Harris. Period. 🇺🇸

1. I've found a large, AI-driven bot network on X which is posting in support of Trump in the US election.

If a wife is anxious about her husband finding out how she voted, she’s married to the wrong dude. Enough of this toxic bro shit.

[Arnold Schwarzenegger @Schwarzenegger]

I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians.

I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor.

My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California.

That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people.

Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime.

It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand.

I want to tune out.

But I can’t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious.

And I will always be an American before I am a Republican.

That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious.

For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing.

The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better.

It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed!

But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems.

It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful.

We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger.

That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz.

Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us.

And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. https://t.co/eHFZ723I4H

Our Presidents used to speak like adults. Don't let a man who whines like a child ever hold that office again.

[⚖️Powerful Mel Ankoly #ForThePeople @Mel_Ankoly]

This is a staged video posted by James Blair, director of the Trump campaign and the RNC, to make it appear there is voter suppression in Pennsylvania.

These are actors (no badges, wrong uniforms), not Bucks County Emergency Services. Real officers on the right.

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

The strategy is familiar and predictable by now. A pile of outrageous statements - all to ensure we spend the next days talking about him, not about you and not about how Kamala Harris will make life more affordable and restore the right to choose that he took away. It’s bait.

[Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran]

Since people seem to have missed this one, unsealed in the Smith filing:

-Trump used a burner phone, routed through a foreign country to contact Michigan house speaker.

-He tried to pressure the speaker in this off book call.

-Speaker McCarthy knew about the burner phone line.

-The phone showed up as “Spam Risk Egypt” on caller ID.

If the President thought his attempt to overturn the election and forge elector documents were legitimate “official acts” why was he using an insecure, foreign routed burner phone for these calls?

How many other sensitive calls did the former President have on this unencrypted line with coconspirators, that could now be used as blackmail against him, by any foreign nation which may have tapped that line?

(And before the reply bots get here, let me remind them: Trump’s own legal team did not dispute the authenticity of *anything* unsealed from the Smith filing)

I’m a NYT-bestselling Trump biographer, and this is the culmination of what I learned over a decade.

What do you think—any chance we could get this to 50K RETWEETS by Election Day?

[Stephen Richer @stephen_richer]

That’s one possibility.

A different possibility is that different states have different state laws.

[Fred Wellman @FPWellman]

Yes the bullshit AI video accusing Tim Walz was a Russian op.

[Matt McDermott @mattmfm]

An investigation by @WIRED finds that fake accusations against Tim Walz, that were widely shared by Trump accounts on Twitter last week, are part of a Russian government effort to once again interfere in the election to help elect Trump. https://t.co/y0Q4hG5tGk
