We reviewed the Dominion voting machines in PA and the results may shock you! In counties using Dominion machines, Trump won 52.2%-46.7%. In counties not using Dominion machines, Biden won 50.8%-48.0%. So does this mean Dominion was really rigging the vote for Trump?
No, of course not. Don't be ridiculous. But it does show just how absurd the lies being peddled by Trump and his supporters really are. If you say Dominion was rigged and throw those votes out, Trump actually loses PA even worse than he really did.
The great thing is that all this info is public, and has been public this whole time. See votespa.com/Voting-in-PA/P… for a county breakdown on which machines were used and electionreturns.pa.gov for a county breakdown of results.
This shows just how dangerous the lies coming out of the Trump team really are. People are calling for the military to go into Pennsylvania over the results of voting machines that actually came out the opposite of what they're claiming.
We've arrived at a point where just believing the president is a public hazard.

One of the people asking for legal immunity in the final weeks of the Trump administration is Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. President Trump has been a supporter of MBS, even after the murder of Jamal Khashoggi.

President Trump’s financial connections to Saudi Arabia have been well established.

MBS' visit to New York drove a spike in quarterly profits at the Trump hotel in Manhattan during 2018. Though he didn’t stay there, his entourage did, and they spent enough to put the hotel in the black.

Our government is facing a legitimacy crisis. People are taking note of widespread, race-based disenfranchisement, the disproportionate power of certain voters in certain states, and the broken process of Supreme Court nominations.

Something’s got to change, and soon.
1. Guarantee every American’s right to vote.

2. Grant statehood to the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, ensuring that their citizens have real representation.
3. Twice in the last twenty years, the presidential candidate who won the support of the most Americans did not win the most electoral votes. States should consider assigning electors based on the national popular vote instead.

At least the executive branch and the legislative branch have *some* binding ethics requirements, even if they need serious reforms. The federal judiciary has none. It’s time to change that.

Here's how:
1. The single most important step to a more accountable judicial system is to create an independent ethics commission to create an ethics regime, publicize potential conflicts, police violations and enforce consequences. It’s wild this doesn’t already exist.
2. Federal judges must be required to disclose potential conflicts of interest.

Judges don’t have great track records on this. Look at Justice Thomas, who failed to disclose that his wife worked for the Heritage Foundation. Or Justice Sotamayor, who didn't disclose major gifts.

Fixing ethical problems in Washington doesn't end with the White House. Congress needs an ethics overhaul. Here's how to do it:
1. Angry that Members of Congress and their spouses are getting rich from curiously timed stock trades? Let’s ban them from trading stocks.

2. If we really want to deal with the problem, let’s also ban Members of Congress and their senior staff from holding individual stocks.
3. Many Members of Congress are outrageously rich, but we don’t know much about their holdings beyond that. We need to require more in depth financial disclosures.

President Trump has claimed that he’s the most transparent president in history. His administration’s secrecy about who visits the White House, abuse of security classifications and recordkeeping failures prove that’s a lie.

Here’s how to fix what he’s broken:
1. Create clear enforcement measures for the Presidential and Federal Records Acts so there can be real consequences for law breaking (like failing to create records that could link families separated at the border).
2. Ban the use of apps that automatically delete messages for government work. Remember Jared Kushner’s WhatsApp messages with Mark Zuckerberg and MBS?

You don’t need us to tell you that the Trump administration has been a disaster for government ethics.

Reforms like these should be a no-brainer:
1. End misuse of government offices for private gain by expanding recusal rules and requiring all high level executive branch officials to divest their financial interests.

(we’re looking at you, Wilbur Ross, Louis DeJoy, Ryan Zinke and Marc Short)
2. Give the Office of Government Ethics more power to actually enforce ethics laws, or create a different centralized office that can do so.
