If you read Polish: on how Kaczynski has built Caracas in Warsaw, wasting national reserves to build his own power and his party's fortunes, leaving the country unprepared for this or any crisis wiadomo.co/cezary-michals…
"Jarosław Kaczyński przez ponad cztery lata swoich niepodzielnych rządów nie przygotował Polski na ten kryzys. Na żaden kryzys jej nie przygotował, bo przez cały ten czas zajmował się wyłącznie umacnianiem swojej osobistej władzy i władzy swojej partii..."

Hungarian government website is using my name to spread propaganda via @Google
anybody who opposes their unnecessary suspension of democracy will be considered "pro-virus"

Long but IMPORTANT THREAT ON ELECTIONS IN #FLORIDA.

#BayCounty was hit by a Cat 4 Hurricane just 4 weeks ago,yet managed to count votes & submit timely results.

Yet over 41 hours after polls closed #Broward elections office is still counting votes?
#Sayfie

- says she doesn’t know how many ballots are left to be counted; &
- Isn’t reporting hourly or regularly,but rather releasing thousands of additional votes,often in the overnight hours,that are chipping away at GOP leads

#Broward elections department has a history of violating the law:

A court found they improperly handled votes by mail:
