I would urge everyone to be very careful with the “Starlink stole the election” posts.
There will be security audits — and if anything was fucky, we’ll find out about it — but so far, CISA has said they’ve seen no evidence of foul play.
Don’t act like the GOP. Wait for proof.
2 died of Ebola: They said Obama should resign.
4 died in Benghazi: They had Hillary testify for 11 hours, held 33 hearings, and launched a 4-year probe.
881,776 Covid deaths, an armed insurrection & theft of classified documents: They cheered, and elected Trump as dictator.
As an immigrant, Elon Musk can't run for president himself, so he spent $130M+ of his own money to buy the presidency for Trump.
Trump will be the one sworn in, but pay attention to who's really pulling the strings.
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes tells @MSNBC she has "no intention" of dropping the criminal case against the fake Trump electors who sought to overturn the state's 2020 election results.
"A grand jury in the state of Arizona decided that these individuals who engaged in an attempt to overthrow our democracy in 2020 should be held accountable, so we won't be cowed, we won't be intimidated."
I, like many of you, have been contemplating our predicament since election night.
We are in a losing war for our democracy and I'm not sure we collectively know who our true adversary is.
It's not the voting blocks...white women, Latinos, Gen X. It's not MAGA. It's not even Trump.
It's an insidious power that has been hiding in the shadows for some time...and when the stakes were at their highest in this election, it fully revealed itself.
The American Oligarchy.
They control our Supreme Court, much of Congress, and the flow of information to the masses via legacy, mainstream and social media.
They decide the national conversation, how to keep us at each other's throats while they continue to amass wealth and power completely unchecked.
They put their thumbs on the scale of justice and poured billions into this election. They chose Trump because he was desperate and would capitulate to their demands. They chose a running mate to replace him in case he became too unhinged to control.
Consider how many disqualifying facts about Trump never saw the light of day...or didn't get the attention they deserved...or got drowned out by propaganda. They took a mentally spent buffoon and presented him as a hero to the masses.
Despite Biden successfully steering us out of a global recession and strengthening our economy, they maintained the national tone about the price of groceries being too high. Despite Trump's obvious mental decline, their media outlets remained reticent to press the issue.
We struggle to unite as a nation because they're too good at keeping us divided. We are drowning in disinformation because they control all of it.
They have successfully created imaginary villains for us to fight...each other.
It seems like we are a democracy careening towards fascism, when the reality is they're using the specter of fascism to keep us on edge while they turn America into a compliant oligarchy.
Whether you are a democrat, republican, independent or MAGA, we have a common foe.
Some of us just don't know it yet.
This is Russia’s state-run media airing salacious pictures of the future First Lady, Melania Trump.
This is Putin letting Trump know that he is in charge.
Watch as Trump rolls over.
Donald Trump can be assured of one thing: we will not let him or his political sycophants like @mrddmia degrade and destroy our democratic institutions.
I'm ready to fight tooth and nail alongside NY's AG @TishJames to protect the integrity of our justice system and democracy.
Before it’s too late to make history transparent and to Trump-proof the past from erasure, Jack Smith and Merrick Garland — yes, that guy — can yet perform a great public service by going fully public:
Breaking: Trump has announced that he's appointing Tom Homan as his border Czar.
For all of you Latinos for Trump that were worried that you'd be separated from your families, fear not. He says you will deported too.
Unfortunately the media barely covered the significant accomplishments of the Biden Administration and long term investment in our infrastructure and economy. Like those of the New Deal, some will be noticed later. No doubt Trump will take credit for these just as Republicans in Congress did for improvement programs they voted against. Hypocrisy.
Joe Biden and the Democratic majority Senate have FULL LEGAL POWER to make appointments, including judicial appointments, in the next 2 months.
And they should use it — immediately.
How do you know a recession is coming?
Simple.
Americans just elected a Republican president.
Look at history:
Since WWII, almost every single recession has happened after Americans elected a Republican president.
Don’t believe me? Do your own research.
Y’all love that.
