.@VP shld request manual recounts (& ballot images) bc Rs blocked legislation that wld have required robust manual audits for federal races, MAGAs breached voting systems in swing states, & bomb threats forced evacuations of election offices. But if u are spreading half-baked calculations & other nonsense, u are undermining our ability to persuade @VP to request recounts. 1/Image
Image
5/ Example of some of the viral nonsense that spread like wildfire.
7/ Another. Compare @Spoonamore’s “bullet ballot” claim on the left with his admission today on the right. Image
Image
@Spoonamore 8/ I wrote about Republicans blocking the #SAFEAct election security bill (which @VP endorsed) and the subsequent MAGA voting system breaches here for @BucksCoBeacon. These two factors alone warrant recounts. buckscountybeacon.com/2023/10/trump-…Image
9/ “State police provided a list of 32 [Pennsylvania] counties that received [hoax bomb] threats [on Election Day], though a spokesperson cautioned that it might not be comprehensive.” Here is the list. (Bucks & York did not evacuate, per the article.) 11/7/24 goerie.com/story/news/pol…Image

@Spoonamore @VP @BucksCoBeacon 10/ “Ten Arizona counties were targeted by … hoax bomb threats on Election Day *** Arizona AG Kris Mayes revealed Tuesday that 2/3 of Arizona’s counties — twice as many as was previously known — received bomb threats on Election Day.” 11/12/24 azmirror.com/briefs/ten-ari…Image
11/ “Georgia secretary of state says there were over 60 [hoax] bomb threats during election” 11/12/24 11alive.com/article/news/p…Image
12/ The #SAFEAct (endorsed by @VP) also would have required the removal of wireless modems from ballot scanners. Again, however, the GOP blocked it.
13/ Rs will accept no...cybersecurity standards...I pointed out that right now...u can have a voting machine w/ a[]... connection to the internet, which is the equivalent of stashing...ballots in the Kremlin. And the Rs objected &...sat down...” @RonWyden, 2/19/20 fastcompany.com/90465001/senat…Image

Terrific post by @LuluFriesdat of @Smart_elections —which seeks a hand recount of the presidential election in Rockland County, NY—in which they correct those who have wrongly suggested that Smart Elections’ legitimate concerns & findings thus far amount to “proof” that the election was rigged for Trump.

THIS is what credible election integrity messaging looks like: “Are we concerned about all the software updates they released? You bet we are. Can we say conclusively that there was some kind of malware in those updates that changed vote totals? No we cannot. That’s why we’re in court. To get that kind of information.”
👏👏👏👏

Those of you who have followed me for years know that I spent about four years of my life focusing on election security. (See my article below.) 2/ buckscountybeacon.com/2023/10/trump-…Image
3/ After the Big Lie, I felt that the movement had been so discredited—by people improperly conflating vulnerabilities with “proof” of fraud & then using that non-existent “proof” to justify violence—that I could no longer effectively advance this ball.

“As of three weeks ago, 172 of these individuals [pardoned by Trump] had pled guilty to assaulting law enforcement. By their own admission, they assaulted police. About 140 officers were injured, including Officer Brian Sicknick, who died the following day. Four officers who responded that day have since died by suicide.” 1/25/25 (Link in post 2.)

Trump has picked Paul Ingrassia to lead the Office of Special Counsel. As of 9 days ago, Ingrassia’s Instagram included a pinned photo of himself w/ self-professed “misogynist” Andrew Tate who has since been charged w/ rape & trafficking in the UK & who performed the Nazi salute on video (in apparent defense of Elon Musk). 1/Image

2/ I learned about Ingrassia from this article by NPR. npr.org/2025/05/14/nx-…
This article by the ADL is about Tate. 3/ adl.org/resources/arti…

MAGA’s favorite White South African activist group—Afriforum—admitted last year that “there is no white genocide going on in South Africa.”

(In 2018, Afriforum had traveled to the US to discuss their claim that White South African farmers were being murdered due to their race. They have since hobnobbed with Tucker Carlson, Jack Posobiec, New Founding, CPAC, & NatCon.) 1/

The Center for Renewing America—founded by Trump’s OMB Director pick Russ Vought, a top architect of Project 2025—has *explicitly* said that it wants the federal govt to “eliminate” Obamacare’s life-saving Medicaid expansion. Here are some stats on the expansion. 1/ cbpp.org/research/healt…Image
