Why the "alpha males" choose sulky misogynist idols, I don't understand.

Today is Chuck Yeager's birthday - the first pilot to fly faster than sound - and he made sure the world knew the credit he gave to Glennis, his wife.

Real legends lift people up.
This guy hauled ass to serve his country in WW2, even after he got shot down and returned from occupied territory - and the rules said no combat duty for him.

He got the brass to make an exception - to put him back in WW2's skies.

He named plane after plane "Glamorous Glennis", after his wife.

"She was my lucky charm. Any airplane I named after her always brought me home", he wrote. They were together until cancer took her in 1990.

He lived to age 97, passing in 2020.

Not content to be a WW2 ace or break the sound barrier, he kept on as a test pilot. His feedback to avionics engineers was brilliantly intuitive.

He knew how to take planes like this rocket-powered Starfighter past their limits and live to tell the tale.

I'd crawl over broken glass to trade our bonespurs and "alpha" grievance peddlers for another Chuck Yeager. legion.org/information-ce…

He had real courage, real goodness, a sense of duty, and he lifted us up. That makes him part of the version of the USA I wish we'd choose to be.

2024 was a Data-to-Disenfranchisement KKKoup.

True the Vote's lists, handed to "voter vigilantes", got 4.8 million votes wrongfully purged, 3.6M of which were 🟦. Kamala won by 1.2M popular votes, 286 EC.

2024 violated the #14A - it's illegitimate.
HARRIS Cheated Out of 3.6 million votes by Jim Crow Tricks If every legal voter was allowed to vote, and every legal vote counted, Trump would have lost WI, MI, PA, and GA. Harris should have won with 286 electoral votes. THE SUPPRESSION NUMBERS: 4.8 million voters wrongly purged 318 thousand voters challenged by "vigilantes" (200K+ in GA alone!) 2.1 million mail-in ballots disqualified 585 thousand in-precinct ballots rejected 1.2 million provisional ballots discarded 3.2 million new registrations blocked Harris lost at least 3.6 million votes, meaning she should have topped...

2026's violations are only the latest round of the Trump-Epstein power grab.

Trump pushing to "nationalize elections", DOGE stealing data, Noem trying to extort Minnesota's voter rolls with ICE violence is all a part of it.

So were russian bomb threats to swing state polling. Throughout election seasons, The New York Times and NPR and establishment media write stories and editorials decrying vote suppression tactics, from new ID requirements to new restrictions on mail-in voting. But, notably, the mainstream press never, ever, not once, will say that these ugly racist attacks on voters changed the outcome of an election. Question: If these vote suppression laws — notorious example: Georgia’s SB 202 — had no effect on election outcomes, then why did GOP legislators fight so hard to pass these laws? The answer is clear on the Brennan Center’s map of states that p...
This is unusually well-proven.

Since this was written, Greg Palast's team published more details; they used US Elections Assistance Commission data, reviewed by volunteers from USPS+Amazon w/ 1800 datapoints to confirm living, registered voters.
gregpalast.com/trump-lost-vot…4,776,706 voters were wrongly purged from voter rolls according to US Elections Assistance Commission data. By August of 2024, for the first time since 1946, self-proclaimed “vigilante” voter-fraud hunters challenged the rights of 317,886 voters. The NAACP of Georgia estimates that by Election Day, the challenges exceeded 200,000 in Georgia alone. No less than 2,121,000 mail-in ballots were disqualified for minor clerical errors (e.g. postage due). At least 585,000 ballots cast in-precinct were also disqualified. 1,216,000 “provisional” ballots were rejected, not counted. 3.24 million new r...

"With this latest document drop, it's clear that the terminally online outsider eco-system was not invisible to elite eyes. The wall between the system and the counter-system is far more porous than the mythology allows."

Cy's commentary is must-hear. If we're not actively making sure our evidence is clear and we're helping the right people, we're passive before an actively co-opting system.
Have I linked often enough to this clear forensic timeline of how quickly russian disinfo sites targeting westerners amplified QAnon in near synchrony? Hell no.

QAnon buried a nugget of truth inside a huge deflecting, destructive russian-backed psy-op.

@RpsAgainstTrump You need only look at archives that have been around for decades to see that Canada's transcript of Reagan was absolutely legit.

Imaging giving up literacy and dignity to eat up a such an easily proven lie. 👇 Image
It's right there in the text, of course. This is how shameless Trump and the bot farms defending him are. Those Epstein files must be foul.

That "spy dossier" supposedly from Ukraine that Mriya Aid used to attack a journalist, David Pugliese, who called them out early? It never existed.

MA faked "evidence" he was a russian agent, and went after other critics with threats of SA+violence.

Sound familiar?!? 🇺🇦🧵👇Image
Disclaimer: years of sifting through this, and you'll find selfish actors, suspicious ones, and genuine supporters of Ukraine caught in the middle.

I admire Canada, and volunteers who've proven true allies of Ukraine despite this chaos. Let those who caused this own it.
"After [David's] damning article, Mriya+bots spread rumors that he was a ru/Soviet spy.

The jist: 'Don't read that report about deliveries of Chinese knock-off night-vision goggles instead of ones they fundraised for - the author's a ru spy!'"

What do you call it when someone, to this day, actively spreads lies A, B, and C, and each of those lies would call BS on the other ones if true? Image

I must admit, I have a lot of incredulous moments of "How can you actually think that?", and, "Why did you think that was proof?"

It's funny being accused of being an AI for almost four years now, by the same crew that has GrantGPT writing for them.

But wait, there's more. Image
As someone who touched-typed at 80+ WPM before some of these bozos passed a pregancy test: why be mad that literacy existed before AI or the internet?

I asked Grok about this post I just typed. Buckle up, I'm going to show you how "AI" 🤬s up! 😂👇

About Georgian Legion's calling Mamuka a unit commander, and changing stories about the chain of command:

👉 Did HUR stutter? When GL was claiming to be under HUR's command, HUR denied they exist and said Mamuka hadn't been contracted since April 2023.

But there's more! 🇺🇦🧵👇 Image

Take note what defenders had to say about Mamuka's behavior before his contract ended in April 2023.

I'll translate this step-by-step as well. You're going to see a lot of bitter sarcasm. Verify it yourself if you need to. Thread's tail is at:
Image
"Guys, is there really a unit called the Georgian Legion? Did that Mamuka guy ever actually fight anywhere? What the hell is this—millions of dollars from Westerners going to some cunning jerk again?"
