One year ago today, my 60 yr old sister died of colon cancer. It was 18 months, to the day, from diagnosis at stage 4 to painful death. Please get your #colonoscopy

An under vote, is a ballot that has a vote for POTUS but the rest of the ballot is blank.
Trump’s margin in EVERY swing state appears to be based entirely on under votes.
That’s not just weird, it’s utterly implausible.
14/...the hidden history of how corporations became "people" with rights equal to or greater than actual human beings, etc. There are lots of stories that have been hidden from view, not by conspirators but simply bc that knowledge isn't functional for those in power...
🟥NEW: Last year, 22 experts warned fed agencies about a multi-state 2020 Trump effort to access voting system software, which would amount to 70% of US machines.
The software BREACHES have "urgent implications for the 2024 election and beyond."

I’m listening to Republican strategist Sarah Longwell on NPR talking about public opinion of Trump’s tyrannical posture and she just said:
“When I ask voters in focus groups if they think Donald Trump is an authoritarian, the #1 response by far is, ‘what’s an authoritarian?’”
I do not want to be a bad loser, but there is something very weird about the numbers.
The Republicans had approximately the same votes as in 2020., The Democrats had 15,000,000 less votes with a higher registration than in 2020. That, on the surface seems impossible.
Still numb. I’m in London right now. We went to Westminster Abbey yesterday and a service was in progress. The priest called out the U.S. and prayed for us and the people around the world who will be affected by us. 💔
@johnpavlovitz And first thing I read this morning is that they want to create a nation voting system. Which is the way to control and manipulate electronic voting. Forever. Trump said you will never have to vote again. That’s why. #voting#russia#trump
Really not trying to stoke conspiracy, but is it really feasible that Dem enthusiasm at near Obama levels, an insurrection, the fall of Roe, Trump’s SCOTUS immunity deal, and Project 2025–really yielded 15 million fewer Blue voters?
Help it make sense.
@illinoissbe@GovPritzker Why doesn’t Illinois have online ballot tracking? This year, I did not receive any confirmation that my mail-in ballot was received. Where can I check that?

As w/ Victor Orban in Hungary (Christian), Narendra Modi in India (Hindu), Recep Tayyib Erdoġan in Turkey (Muslim), & Bibi Netanyahu in Israel (Jewish), we are entering a period of US history where an authoritarian leader yoked to a relig nationalist movt has come to power. 17/
I am esp. concerned about this "Trump as Jehu" prophecy narrative that has set in in recent months, because it is preparing the ground for Christians to accept & even endorse Trump's threatened violence against his opponents as a necessary purge. 15/

But the Christian advisers & leaders who surround Trump (formally, his Nat'l Faith Advisory Board + a circle of informal evangelical advisers) have at least as extreme a vision as Project 2025, if not more.
I've spent years studying them. They are effusive & resolute today. 12/
We're living in the moment the American founders feared most: A populist authoritarian (they used the term "demagogue" -- same difference) has gained power through a legitimate election.
Worse, Trump has the most concentrated, anti-democratic coalition since the Confederacy. 4/
