Todd Blanche, under questioning by Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse quibbled when asked about Armed poll watchers in November. The RNC a year ago budgeted for training 10,000 poll watchers and Trump had announced about deploying the National Guard as poll watchers.
Of course they won't be placed in every precinct, only the ones that the Republicans deem problematic And now the voting machine companies are owned by Republican activities
Also, there were 5 states with fake counties (ghost counties) in 2024, that swng for Trump
Yes - work for us all before the election .......and afterwards to validate the votes - and there is lots of new technology to check for cheating in the counting - it has to be done immediately before the machines are commandeered by Republican cronies who may have big guns
What do you mean "before the machines are commandeered"Do you know who owns the voting machines? Scott Leiendecker, a former Republican election official and friend of the infamous Ed Martin owns Dominion Voting Machines and then there is ESS voting machines Chinese parts, hidden ownership, growing scrutiny: Inside America's biggest maker of voting machines
What would a 110% turnout mean? That has happened in local elections around here, where there are more voters than adults, let alone registered voters. Lol.
It's important to have integrity in reporters of local newspapers; not easily bribed alcoholics.
My reaction exactly! In the background, we should all beware of the Trumpto-crypto scam. If Trump gets away with making crypto dollar-equivalent - be not surprised if Trump now owns all your money. All he has to do is declare paper money obsolete. In a capitalist nation, greed is good and money is power.
Bulgaria recently converted its corrupt currency, called Leva, to Euros. That will enable the EU to purge Bulgaria's historically-corrupt (and Russian) economy. Bulgarians are not happy about it, because stuff now costs more in Euros. So, the babushkas line up at banks to convert their monopoly money for a different monopoly currency. This will make it harder for Russian oligarchs to scam Bulgarian farmers like they used to scam Ukrainian farmers. It will also provide the EU with more access to agricultural produce being blown up by Putin in Ukraine.
Every economist I know (quite a few) thinks crypto is a scam. Nevertheless, Trump's toadies in the Fed and our Treasury Secretary Bassent are all facilitating the move to validate crypto as dollar-equivalent. Wow, does this mean that cellphones will replace wallets? Duh
BTW, today Iran told us that they are fed up dealing with Kushner and Witkoff because all they are doing is trying to rig ways to get rich off the war. This strikes me as providing a motivational basis for everything Thom said today that should freak us all out, bigly.
Of course kraznov couldn't come up these plans on his own, he is being used as an icon for his followers to unite and those who have the real controls to further their desires. If you listen to the times that he is questioned by reporters he is never able to give details, just a simplified retort that has zero facts. His mind is a vacuum that is only kept alive by his genuflecting (smirking no doubt when they do) cult feeding it with whatever they need.
What the "US" is about to experience in the next six months is going to blow everyone's mind; except those of "US" that know it is coming. In boxing there is something called "telegraphing" a punch; and white supremacy always telegraphs itself by hiding in plain sight.
A rather cryptic statement you say, Sensei? Be mindful of my batting average on these sociopolitical matters. And though I have been on the Injured Reserve List for a time, I am back on the plate. WE are in a world of hurt.
I recall there was a case when NBC, CBS, and ABC all declined to air a speech by Barack Obama, and looking it up, it was in November of 2014 concerning immigration policy. Republicans were in a snit over the speech, so even at that time, the establishment networks were busy trying to placate right-wing extremists. Yet, to what end? Here we are staring fascism square in the face.
"So listen carefully to what Trump says tonight and what Democrats and experts on fascism, Putin, and the future of America say in response."
Someone has to listen to the bloviating a-hole to document the threat he and his cronies pose, but I promise you, it will not be me. I can wait until morning to hear the reports and watch the clips. My advice to everyone who is not forced to watch the live broadcast is to boycott the speech in protest. Our time is better spent in preparing for what we know he intends to do. Send a message that we see the plan, and we will devote our best efforts to dispelling the myth and lies of elections stolen from Trump or of compromised voting systems.
The foundation is first and foremost the "capturing of the airwaves", and all that followed. The deregulation of broadcast rules of ownership as well as content. Out of this came the false equivalency promoted as "fair and balanced" reporting. Free speech has mutated into the freedom to lie without fact check. "Alternate facts" are the rule of the day. Euphemisms distort, cover and ignore reality ("newspeak" in Orwellian terms). The latest, "kinetic action" is so opaque in the egregious way it frames war as inconsequential movement, of what, who or where we are meant stay ignorant of.
Obviously, ignorance is the point. It has been designed to "fool the people all of the time". What does an exclusive Fox viewer receive but a world view that is a steady feed of grievance that each can nod their head to. The Fox anchors recognize the pain -- it is they who have been ignored, overlooked, passed over for the American dream as those "others" have jumped the line.
A carnival barker could not do better.
Can we change the minds of those who have stayed in the Fox orbit? Doubtful, for many reasons.
But it is not just Fox that has abandoned its job as the Fourth Estate. We must hold all the corporate/legacy media accountable -- boycotts, letters to the editor, commentary, cancelling subscriptions, all must be on the agenda.
Meanwhile, with every branch of government corrupted and complicit, with corporate MSM silenced and compliant, our corporate establishment Democratic “leadership” is resting peacefully, secure in the unfounded and delusional belief that our institutions will hold, our course will self-correct. Or perhaps they’re simply befuddled, overwhelmed, concerned their donors will object to a committed defense of democracy. Whatever the case, since they’re not a part of the solution, they’re a perhaps fatal part of the problem. With friends like these…
Prob not so befuddled or overwhelmed. Look at who’s running for Dems. and also WHERE they’re getting their “donations”.
So few, like Osslof in GA for Senate and Talarico for Senate in TX are NOT taking PAC money. As soon as politicians give in to the corporate money, they are beholden for something—something they pledge to do for the money who bought them. That’s how the corporate billionaires get what they want, and they’ve gotten so much since this administration has taken control.
Corporations are not people they’re for profit and protecting it, yet we’re by law treating them as if they were responsible citizens.
I recall the Biden speech. It wasn’t particularly long…around 15 minutes. I may have been the first national speech. NBC televised Wheel of Fortune, instead. The media landscape in the U.S. has consisted of 90% right wing media/propaganda/lies and the rest what I call Right Wing Media Lite (ABC NBC CBS). They don’t lie like right wing media does, the mainstream merely edits and censors what they run. They don’t run anything factual that makes Republicans look bad, or Dems look good. They were all over every Biden gaffe, yet ignore Trump mumbling, lying and falling asleep. In 2022, they covered “record inflation” hysterically 24/7, complete with daily visceral coverage from gas stations and supermarkets about how “painful” it was. What they FAILED to cover even once, was that 54% of the inflation was caused by corporate price gouging (to make Biden and the Dems look bad. It worked. No mention of record corporate profits, CEO compensation or corporate stock buybacks.
Another example is the three Republican threatened government shutdowns due to the “deficit crisis” and “budget crisis” due to “gridlock”, falsely suggesting Dems were equally responsible. The deficit crisis? No mention that there were only shutdowns and threats when a Democrat was President. No mention that the majority of our U.S. deficit was the result of massive tax cuts for the rich by Republicans Reagan, W Bush and Trump and two Bush wars. No mention that the last three Presidents who REDUCED the deficit were Democrats Clinton, Obama and Biden. BTW, Trump just added another $4 trillion to the deficit with even more tax cuts for the rich, while slashing spending for everyone else. And the mainstream media coverage? Crickets. 🦗
There is no evidence of a voting machine hacks but Cheeto wants to put that evidence under attack. This attack comes with the concern of election interference and make it with national intelligence information.
The whole point is to sow confusion about election results. This appears to be a long term Nazi Republican strategy over the next 4 months before the midterms. Admittedly there have been reports from ETA(Election Truth Alliance) suggesting that there is statistical evidence there was a potential manipulation of election data from specific areas of the 2024 electorate. But there are reputable election advisors on the Democratic side who have labeled this type of data misleading.
The Nazi Republicans read this information as well. Perhaps they were responsible for data manipulation, so why not now take advantage of this above confusion and give voters enough propaganda to persuade parts of the electorate to question midterm elections?
But clearly there are AI chatbots now being used in robocalling to spread false claims, specifically in Michigan where the Nazis are falsely claiming that Obama has endorsed El-Sayed’s political opponent in the Democratic primary. This type of propaganda is meant to confuse voters and make them feel like voting may be useless. This is all out political election interference and should be investigated and prosecuted. Successful prosecution has been done in the past and the Nazis are doing it again and should be prosecuted this time as well.
Project 2025 Criminals work 24/7. Thank you for your journalism. Trumpites cannot say they were not warned. Tonight’s Tempertantrump speech is a cult directive, just like the January 6, 2021 incitement speech.
Apologies if missed this in text of article, but where was Putin's use of the false flag attack of the Apartment bombings of 1999? This allowed him to turn around the election and become president. Russia's weak relatively new democracy was then easy prey for a ruthless strongman linked to the strong security forces. Surely Trump is going to need to kill a lot of Americans in false flag terrorist attacks to create the security crisis needed to tip America into dictatorship? What do you think?
Are Democrats demanding equal free time to respond to the felon-in-chief's lies?

Yes, a wonderful eye-opening URL - see also
ETA = https://electiontruthalliance.org/
for details of their cheating the counts in the election machines in all the fringe States in 2024 and 2020
As I see the only chance of defeating the NAZI's is by a massive turnout, 99.9%
Yes - work for us all before the election .......and afterwards to validate the votes - and there is lots of new technology to check for cheating in the counting - it has to be done immediately before the machines are commandeered by Republican cronies who may have big guns

As they already commandeered the machines in Georgia.... but they could do that the day the election iis concluded
What would a 110% turnout mean? That has happened in local elections around here, where there are more voters than adults, let alone registered voters. Lol.

Integrity? In the matrix?
Of course. What was I thinking?
Gulp.

Bigly.
Simple Solution-
every journalist should make Trumps administration provide evidence supporting their claims
(LIES)
And keep asking that every time
Remember Trump walked out of an interview with Kristin Welker when she repeatedly asked Trump for proof of his claims
A+++, Mr. Hartmann.
Two things are crystal clear.
Donald is too congenitally
1. Stupid;
2. Demented to conjure up a [pre-enjoyed] Commie plot.
Clearly, he has been, is being, will be programmed by Russia, Russia, Russia. He is Listening!
Apart from being a world-class Asshole, Bisexual, and KIDDIE Rapist, DT is more than likely a Red, hardcore Commie, dyed-in-the-wool Pinko Rat-Dupe.
