@JonathanSimon14 wrote Code Red: Computerized Elections and the War on American Democracy to explain all this before the 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, and 2020 elections.

The media blew it off and even today the "When we fight, we win" campaign just hand waved away 10 million votes.

Yesterday mid-day, the Harris Campaign was euphoric, as early intel was great.
Nancy Pelosi assured us we had the votes to take the House.
Cory Booker said he believed the race would be called for Harris by the end of the night.
Charlie Kirk and Stephen Miller were publicly panicking.
Somehow, in a matter of hours that all completely shifted.
That's the thing that really made this painful.
It was a full pendulum swing into darkness.
It defies understanding.

DEAN: You're under oath. When will you comply with the law and release all the Epstein files?

BLANCHE: We have complied with the law

DEAN: There are 3 million more documents. And you know what you said to me? 'They include another guy named Epstein.' Nobody is buying it

*the time of the gentlelady has expired*

DEAN: I beg your pardon? How do I get cut off 2 minutes into this? What is true is that the president has lied about being on Epstein's plane, and the unredacted files prove that. There's a lot in here. It's all covered up.

COPS ARREST A MAN FOR ORGANIZING A PROTEST AGAINST A DATA CENTER:

Video shows Illinois police arresting Harley Delander for organizing a protest against a data center in his town.

He explains to police that he did nothing wrong and they’re violating his First Amendment rights.

The police don’t care and arrest him anyway. This is the current state of America.

Our government and both parties are completely owned by the tech billionaires who are rewiring our entire economy to usher in their AI techno-capitalist dystopia.

This is why you are seeing the government do whatever it can to silence any and all opposition to the dystopian nightmare their tech billionaire owners are pushing onto us.

From labeling anti-data center protesters “extremists” to now arresting people for planning protests, the US government is actively attacking and jailing its own people to protect the Tech oligarchs it serves.

Recent retiree Greg Bovino traveled to Portugal to attend a Nazi conference, gave an interview citing Nazi general Erwin Rommel as an inspirational figure, and wore his regulation SS haircut.

When is it ok to start calling them Nazis? Or is that still too polarizing?

I didn’t know about the earliest origin of Memorial Day until I was a grown-ass man, and it’s because some folks didn’t want us to.

In 2021, organizers at an Ohio Memorial Day ceremony muted retired Army Lt. Col. Barnard Kemter for nearly two minutes the moment he began discussing how formerly enslaved Black Americans exhumed the remains of Union soldiers to give them proper burials.

this pseudo-moralistic act of "OMG THEY ARE FASCISTS I CANT WORK WITH THEM" only works when you don't happily ally with, endorse, lie for literal genocidal Zionist war criminals like Genocide Joe and Holocaust Harris and have a proud self-proclaimed Christian Zionist J-Street Israel lobbyist by the name of Matt Duss while also working closely with the genocidal Zionist J-Street Israel lobby directly.

AOCIA happily does all that, so she should kindly shut the fuck up with this bullshit pretense, unless she want to admit what everyone already knows: she consider the Palestinian babies, toddlers, children, girls, boys, women and men who were and are still being beheaded, burned alive, raped, starved, ripped apart to be fundamentally sub-human, whose lives are as irrelevant as the ants she stepped on on the way to that pathetic PR event with fellow genocidal Zionist war criminal David Axelrod.

What happened in the State of Tennessee was the largest and swiftest disenfranchisement of Black people that we've seen in at least a century.

It's on all of us to organize, mobilize, and participate in bigger numbers than their maps account for.

[Echoes of War @EchoesofWarYT]

Most people picture Martha Washington as a quiet woman in a bonnet, pouring tea while George won a war.

The real woman was something else entirely.

She was 5 feet tall. George was 6'2". When they married in 1759, she was a 27-year-old widow with two small children, and the richest woman in Virginia. She brought 17,500 acres and roughly 84 enslaved people to the marriage. George Washington didn't make her wealthy. She made him wealthy.

When the Revolutionary War broke out, she didn't stay home.

For 8 straight winters, every single year of the war, Martha left Mount Vernon and traveled hundreds of miles by carriage, through territory crawling with British soldiers and Loyalists, to spend the freezing months in army camp with George. She was at Morristown. Cambridge. Newburgh. Middlebrook.

And Valley Forge.

In 1776 she got herself inoculated against smallpox in Philadelphia, a procedure that killed plenty of people who tried it, so she could keep traveling to the front. While there, she sewed shirts for soldiers, organized the other officers' wives to mend uniforms, and walked through the camps visiting the sick and dying.

By the time the war ended she had buried both of her surviving children. Patsy died of epilepsy at 17. Jacky died of camp fever right after Yorktown. She raised two of his orphaned kids at Mount Vernon.

She hated being First Lady. In a private letter she described her own life as that of a "state prisoner." She wasn't being cute. She meant it.

When George died in December 1799, Martha did something historians have been mourning ever since. She sat down at the fireplace and burned nearly every letter they had ever written each other. Forty years of marriage. Gone.

Only three letters survived.

She lived two more years. Then, quietly, she freed George's enslaved people about a year before her own death, reportedly because she had grown uneasy about so many people having a personal incentive to wish her dead.

In 1886, the U.S. Treasury put her face on the $1 silver certificate. She is, to this day, the only woman ever featured on American paper currency.

Almost no one alive has ever seen the bill. Almost no one alive knows any of this.

That's Martha Washington.
