Before a single vote was cast, the 2016 election was fixed by GOP and Trump operatives. By purging voter roles, they decided whose votes got counted. Trump was selected, not elected. Don’t let that happen again. [1/2] rollingstone.com/politics/polit…
There’s a simple way you can defeat the GOP's vote-thieving tricks: Re-register!

3 months before an election, EVERYONE needs to check their voter registration to see if they’ve been removed.

Ah, the WashPo! Its headline says GOP “tried” to steal black #VotingRights. No, they succeeded!!! washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2… #NC09 #NorthCarolina #NorthCarolinaSpecialElection #VoterSuppression #ElectionFraud #StopTheSteal
Of course, the #JeffBezos House Organ cannot bring itself to say that these #JimCrow tricks stole #NC09. So, may this one time statistician and sometime journalist say, “they stole the 9th.” gregpalast.com/jim-crow-steal… #NorthCarolina
Hey, @WashingtonPost, we've fixed your headline:

The ‘Smoking Gun’ Proving North Carolina Republicans Disenfranchised Black Voters washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2…

You're welcome!

I cannot think of anything more dangerous than Paul "TheVulture" Singer seizing control of @CNN through a takeover of its parent company, @ATT. Well to the right of #DonaldTrump, Singer’s the new #Koch Brother — but more dangerous. bloomberg.com/news/articles/… #PaulSinger #TheVulture
@CNN @ATT #Trump is clearly expecting an editorial shift from #CNN following #PaulSinger's newly disclosed $3.2 billion stake. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

On Sept 9, Trump tweeted this...
@CNN @ATT For more, read my report on the untold story of the sources of the loot controlled by Paul “The Vulture” Singer and why he needs to buy the White House: gregpalast.com/rubios-billion… #PaulSinger #TheVulture #ATT #CNN

Democrat #DanMcCready supposedly lost the special election in #NorthCarolina’s 9th Congressional District to Republican #DanBishop by less than 4,000 votes. However, racially biased #VoterSuppression schemes easily account for the GOP "victory" margin. gregpalast.com/jim-crow-steal…
Under the violently partisan Elections Board chief Kim Strach, #NorthCarolina targeted 561,693 voters based on the measurably racist and absurdly wrong #Crosscheck list created by the discredited #KrisKobach of Kansas. gregpalast.com/jim-crow-steal… #NorthCarolinaSpecialElection
The vote scam, which I exposed for @RollingStone and Al Jazeera, showed that well over 100,000 voters were wrongly purged for supposedly being registered or voting in two states. rollingstone.com/politics/polit… #NorthCarolinaSpecialElection

THE MAHMOOD YAKUBU I KNOW( A REBUTTAL THREAD)
I have just finished reading @farooqkperogi ‘s assertions that the biggest threat to Atiku Abubakar winning the 2019 presidential election is not the electorate but the Chairman of INEC , Professor Mahmood Yakubu.
Dr Kperoogi, someone I have never met in person but have lots of respect for,based his conclusions on the hearsay by a “brother to a close friend” of the INEC Chairman. Dr Kperoogi then went further to assert that he has other disturbing hearsay from other persons about some
deep-seethed resentment that the INEC Chairman has for Atiku which makes him the biggest threat to Atiku’s ambition. Dr Kperoogi then evidenced these recollections of these unnamed individuals by swearing on the Holy Quran as a practicing Muslim and wants us to

With Roy Moore refusing to concede and the Right's reaction, we're getting a glimpse into just what the Trump movement might lead to: an all-out attack on free elections. 1/
In the past, the sanctity of free-elections was never challenged. You lost, you conceded and walked away. Roy Moore's not just questioning the result, he's refusing it. 2/
Our system works on honor, honor that you compete and then recognize the results. Much like what Trump has done, this is all based on agreeing to play by the rules, which Trump has refused to do and thus benefited. 3/
