1/ Remember this @realDonaldTrump tweet about a "report" on @OANN that "DOMINION DELETED 2.7 MILLION TRUMP VOTES NATIONWIDE"? The story been deleted from OANN's website.
2/ I reported at the time that it was not on the website, but had only run on the air:
3/ As it turns out, it WAS on the website, at least briefly. Here's a cached version:

4/ But if you follow the original link now, you get a "Page Not Found (404) It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching can help" error.

5/ @realDonaldTrump's tweet, however, remains:
BTW, the story was nonsense. Thread here:

It is literally the top story on the Twitter News tab, but the tweet is still up and unlabeled.

Good grief, @Twitter. Has @zlj517 got something on you?
Here's the tweet so you can see if it's still up. As of 10:54, it is:

I asked Edison Research about this @OANN report that @realDonaldTrump tweeted about: A spokesperson told me: "It is hard to respond to these reports that not only have no legitimacy but for the most part seem to be completely made up." 1/2
"Edison Research has no evidence of any voting irregularities and any claims that you see like this did not come from us." 2/2

"The #1619Project does not argue that 1619 is our true founding."

"The 1619 Project is a major initiative observing the 400th anniversary of the beginning of American slavery. It aims to reframe the country’s history, understanding 1619 as our true founding..."

While I understand and sympathize with this position, simply hanging onto Donald Trump for another term is not going to do anything more than slightly delay the effects of the leftward lurch of the Democratic party, a lurch Trump's elevation has enabled and exacerbated.
If you believe that the extremes of the Democratic party push some people towards Trump, thereby forcing them to back someone they might reject under normal circumstances, then the reverse is valid as well. Trump's extremism will beget more leftward extremism.
If conservatives/Republicans continue to normalize voting and enthusiastically supporting someone like Trump, the road back will be even more difficult as the opposition digs in even more.

Turns out the Washington Post uncovered the Great Mailbox Conspiracy ELEVEN YEARS AGO!

2009: "...half of the blue boxes in the Washington area have disappeared in the last nine years, and 200,000 nationwide have been plucked up in the last 20 years, leaving 175,000 total." ImageImage

This report from John Elflein of @Statista shows there is still quite a disparity in death rates from state to state:

Death rates from coronavirus (COVID-19) in the United States as of July 24, 2020, by state(per 100,000 people)
statista.com/statistics/110…
To match New Jersey's death rate, Florida would need to reach 38,000 deaths. Right now, Florida has 5,853. (Obviously the virus hit NJ earlier.)
Similarly, California would have to hit almost 70,000. Currently it has 8,429.
