@ZenWayof @Mattschier68 @jaketapper In truth: During the 2016 campaign, Trump aides had extensive contacts with Russian operatives, while the Kremlin was meddling in the US election. This raised alarms in the intelligence community, so the FBI opened an investigation to find out what was going on.
@SeptembersRain While it includes some humanitarian aid, the vast majority of "foreign aid" is aimed at military and economic security in places that are important to US interests. It's not charity.
@tdflowsmart@funder Dreamers consume fewer social welfare programs than the average citizen. They are a net gain to the economy by a wide margin.
Hit me up for links to the facts if you're so inclined.
@SeptembersRain Federal student loan rates are fixed, and lower than private loans.
And interest rates are currently 2.750%, they used to be 6.80%. I'm not sure what "hiking" you're talking about, but I'd question whoever you're listening to.
@momma72of2 @samstein@ErinBanco By March the senate Republicans and Fox News will be screaming about how Biden didn’t end COVID fast enough. Mark my words.
@carlosboughton @kurteichenwald I fought the “defund the police” slogan for a month before it was hopelessly entrenched. Folks rejected “reform” language because others have promised police reform in the past and didn’t deliver. It was terrible reasoning and a terrible decision.
@SeptembersRain@boogman7 Source? A normal undervote rate is 1-2%. A higher rate like 3% could indicate a problem, especially if localized. Where are you seeing 2020 undervote stats?
@SeptembersRain@boogman7 It’s called undervoting, it happens regularly, & is not suspicious. People came out in 2020 to vote against president and left down ballot blank. (And in 2016 more undervotes voted down ballot & left president blank.) Look it up, it’s not unusual.
@AngelZeit@SeptembersRain@LeemanMichael Right-wing domestic terrorists have killed the most Americans and are the largest threat according to FBI and CSIS. The “violent left” isn’t supported by the facts.
@RWTrollPatrol@GeoffRBennett Which requires senate approval of appointments. Mitch McConnell will not allow Biden any appointments at all, in any capacity.
@SchubertBrian@RichardEngel “Hard left” orders like what? Rejoining the Paris climate accord? Undoing Muslim travel bans? Having a COVID plan?
What are you afraid of?

They may not be able to solve the issue, but they collect national data on registration and voting irregularities. Worth a call, even if it's just to log your experience.
