John Ratcliffe, Trump’s Director of National Intelligence in 2020, ruled out the possibility of foreign actors manipulating the results of the election that Trump lost.
Ratcliffe is now CIA Director. He knows this is BS. His job is more important to him than saving democracy.
49 states use paper ballots. Everything can be audited and cross checked as was proven over and over in 2020.
He genuinely believes that most Americans are just as dumb as his buck toothed, slack jawed, beetle browed base of fucktard supporters.
Do not laugh about this speech. It’s impossible to follow but he’s directly challenging our right to vote. The president of the United States is lying in order to wage war on our democracy and against the states. I don’t care your politics; everybody should be outraged.
Trump says Democrats forgot to rig the election in 2016, successfully rigged it while *he* was president in 2020, then forgot how to rig it again in 2024. So the only election Democrats supposedly stole was the one he himself controlled.
You have to be a special kind of stupid to believe this bullshit.
Before Grandpa takes the stage to rant about the 2020 election (again), let’s review:
Trump’s OWN appointees’ 2021 intelligence assessment said:
- No foreign actor altered votes, registration, tabulation or election infrastructure.
- Russia ran influence ops to boost Trump and trash Biden but vote counts were untouched.
- Iran tried to undercut Trump chances.
- China did not deploy interference efforts.
“I’m on Medicare.”
“Trump wants to defund it.”
“I don’t believe it. There’s no evidence.”
“Well, he already did it.”😕
@waltermasterson valiantly attempts to get through to a MAGA voter that Trump is cutting the programs his life depends on.
This costs about $3M per day to have 5000 guardsmen in Washington DC.
There are 924 days until Inauguration Day so it’s going to cost taxpayers about $2.7B for this ridiculous stunt.
Wasting money is Trump’s signature economic policy.
Don’t hire a weekend news co-anchor to run the military. Don’t hire two dumb podcasters to run the FBI. Don’t hire a tough-guy cosplaying plumber to run DHS. Don’t hire a decaying felon pedophile to run the country.
It’s not hard to see how far we’ve fallen so fast.
- The East Wing is Ruble.
- The Reflecting Pool is green.
- The Country is $39T in debt.
- We destroyed the Middle East.
- Ukraine & Russia are Fighting even more.
- Everything is unaffordable.
It’s everything you’d expect from a convicted felon and rapist who bankrupted multiple casinos.
Here��s Trump repeatedly lying to journalists on his way back from Turkey, falsely claiming there were no security concerns with his Qatar gifted plane
He’s desperately trying to bury the story because he doesn’t want people remembering that he accepted a luxury jet from Qatar, that it’ll end up at his presidential library after he leaves office, and that hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars were spent upgrading it, yet it’s still not secure enough to carry the President of the United States.
No wonder they subpoenaed the New York Times journalists who reported on it. Sick!
This woman is reciting Trump’s words exactly as he said them during the NATO summit.
We have become so inured to Trump’s incoherence that is sanewashed by the media 24/7 that we fail to recognize just how much he’s declined.
Reading a transcript of his words makes it SO CLEAR.
Theodore Roosevelt said the national parks were the greatest gift this country ever gave itself, and the greatest idea we ever gave the world.
More than 100 nations copied it.
Donald Trump looks at that gift and sees a piggy bank for his own pet projects.
This week we learned where our national park money has been going. Not to Yellowstone. Not to Yosemite. To the walkway outside his office, where Trump ripped out American flagstone and laid down Italian granite at a cost of $689,000 to taxpayers. He said he paid for it himself.
That was a lie.
To cover his vanity projects, they are robbing the parks. Spending on parks outside Washington is down $854 million. More than 900 projects went unfunded. They even pulled money from a guardrail on a Colorado cliff that the Park Service flagged as a safety hazard.
I serve on Appropriations.
The power to spend belongs to Congress, not to a king redecorating his palace. These parks are not Trump’s to loot.
They belong to all of us, and I will fight for every dollar.
