Ds made no effort to assess the legitimacy of the GOP’s poll-defying & otherwise dubious wins in 2020.
By contrast, Trump claimed w/o proof that the election was rigged against HIM, even tho he outperformed the polls & his own party had blocked efforts to secure the election.1/
13/Again, the GOP won all 27 House races that were rated as tossups, and flipped three supposedly safe blue House seats. The Democrats flipped no red House seats. This was the blue wave that wasn’t.
14/ The screenshot in post 1 is from an article I’m working on.
16/ “I was struck…that the Republicans will accept no— repeat, no —cybersecurity standards. And I pointed out that right now…you can have a voting machine with an open connection to the internet…And the Rs objected and then sat down..” - @RonWyden, 2020 link.medium.com/qhfOF0L9Ejb
17/. If we have a repeat in 2022, it’s over.
18/ So how do we stop the Democrats from conceding our democracy—without even conducting meaningful audits—in the next election? Seriously, how? The new voting rights bill has many good things, but it does not require audits in 2022. Rather, it phases them in starting in 2024.
Remember when Trump:
* Posted a photo of himself wielding a baseball bat next to a photo of Alvin Bragg?
* Mocked MSNBC anchor Ali Velshi for getting hit with a rubber bullet?
* Praised Greg Gianforte for assaulting a reporter?
* Joked about the assault on Paul Pelosi? 1/
The Daily Signal—launched by Heritage—gushes that JD Vance & Trump have “Orchestrated Deal to Save TikTok”
They omit that, as of June, prospective buyers include Oracle founder Larry Ellison (who helped Heritage w/ a Project 2025 database) & Thiel ally Marc Andreessen’s a16z. 1/
2/ Link to the Daily Signal article, which says nothing about Ellison, Oracle, Andreessen, or a16z. dailysignal.com/2025/09/15/how…
3/ “A consortium of companies, including Oracle [founded by Larry Ellison] … & a16z (Andreessen Horowitz), is back in the running to acquire TikTok. As reported by Bloomberg [in June]
…, the group is allegedly the buyer revealed by…Trump last weekend.” 7/3/25 datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/oracle…
The Daily Signal gushes that JD Vance (Peter Thiel’s protégée) & Trump have “Orchestrated Deal to Save TikTok,” adding that the US-backed buyer has yet to be named.
They omit that, as of June, one of the prospective buyers is a16z—founded by Thiel ally Marc Andreessen. 1/
👀The Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy has published an article by A3P attorney Josh Hammer, Timon Cline, & Yoram Hazony. It calls on SCOTUS to reverse the 1947 Everson case, which held that the Establishment Clause applies to states & requires church-state separation. 1/
While we were distracted, Trump appointed Josh Craddock—who recently signed a letter urging the DOJ to use the Comstock Act to curtail abortion pill distribution—to serve as Deputy Assistant AG in the DOJ’s OLC. Don’t worry. He probly won’t do much until *after* the midterms… 1/
2/ Josh Craddock announced his appointment on 7/2/25.
Houraney “recalls encountering Epstein at Mar-a-Lago in Jan 1993” & says “Trump asked him to organise a party” w/ “some of his pageant’s finalists…[A]fter an hour at the party, Houraney says, there seemed to be only one other guest: Epstein.” 3/14/20 1/
