They are so mad they cheated and still lost. This country is going to take so long to heal after this. It really makes me sad.
its amazing how much back and forth happens the richer you are in the legal system. one woman accidentally voted twice, straight to jail.
donald trump indicted 3 times, and god knows how many other terrible things . days in jail : 0
2 sets of laws. which one do you think you fall under?
One could afford bail of course. Because we let rich criminals buy their way out of sitting in jail.
Trump hasn't even needed to pay bail yet.
When those whom society rewards don't respect the law
No one will respect the law.
She didn’t even accidentally vote twice, she was sentenced to 8 years for the crime of completing a provisional ballot while the state figured out if she was eligible to vote or not.
We haven't healed from the fucking Civil War. Why would we heal from anything more recent?
Keep digging and guaranteed to find the Russians as well.
The most terrifying thing of all is how almost accepted all this is. None of it is particularly shocking. Hard core Republicans will even justify it, possibly even flaunt it. This is how far down the rabbit hole we've allowed things to get.
”Rudy Giuliani had nothing to do with this,” said Robert Costello, Giuliani’s attorney. “You can’t attach Rudy Giuliani to Sidney Powell’s crackpot idea.”
“Just landed back in DC with the Mayor huge things starting to come together!” an employee from the firm Sullivan Strickler, which was hired by Sidney Powell to examine voting systems in Coffee County, wrote in a group chat with other colleagues on January 1.
Former New York Mayor Giuliani was consistently referred to as “the Mayor,” in other texts sent by the same individual and others at the time.
“Most immediately, we were just granted access – by written invitation! – to Coffee County’s systems. Yay!” the text reads.
Props to the authors of the article, Zachary Cohen and Sara Murray, for the excellent comedic structuring.
'Member how Trump and Roger Stone were instrumental in Bush winning in 2000?
What the FUCK?! I was alive when this happened, remembered all the recounts and buzz about how close it is, and this is still literally the first I'm hearing about it. I didn't realize just how disconnected from politics my family and circle was. Now I understand the few grumbles I'd hear over the years about how it "should have been gore" I
How the fuck is it even possible for a political party to steal an election and we all just roll over and take it because the Supreme Court sided with them?
I thought the system was ours to use as we please, not them.
FWIW Bush Jr. was showered with abuse and had eggs thrown at him and he had to abandon the traditional walk to the Capitol at his inauguration, and he was deeply unpopular at the start of his term. Only 911 bailed him out.
But it never should have even gotten that far. The people should have revolted and did the election over again.
Classic Republican playbook, start shit and then project it on the enemy to make them look bad
It's actually an old fascist trick.
It's really effective too. You always know the horrible things you're doing before anyone else. So you can always beat the opposition to the accusation.
"You did X!"
"No I didn't, why would you even think that?"
Months (or years) later when there's an investigation...
"Hey wait, you actually did X!"
"You're obviously making it up, everyone knows it's what you did. People have been talking about you doing it for years!"
Lock him the fuck up. Also, you better believe that republicans are in some pizza shop basement raping and mutilating kids. Every accusation is a confession. 100% of the time.
💀
I'm shocked! SHOCKED!
Well not that shocked.
Ok now do the Republican Senators that helped the coup like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Boebert etc
