We are used having a crisis per quarter not crazy Orange Chicken spamming the controls and creating 4 crises per day
I remember seeing some post of reddit while lurking of a bunch of election letters being dumped in a drain
I wonder what came of that
You think "nobody" is talking about it?
What a tiny world you live in
Yeah, man, let's get back to talking about it. Like we were doing. Just sittin around, talking about it, while more and more of this list happened. And then we just kept on talkin. That's what we need to get back to, suddenly, no one's talking about it. That's the problem.
Joffrey has really upped his game this season.
Another descriptive term is wagging the dog (referring to the tail having disproportionate leverage over the beast) which is a (not uncommon) presidential tactic of taking a serious military action in order to distract from other scandals.
News media, including classic liberal media will allow other stories to die to report on attacks or invasions (or when you can get it, attacks on the US by foreign units).
George W.Bush used this method, but also blitzing the public with countless scandals. (George H. W. Bush did too) So Trump's kitchen cabinet was likely informed by history when considering becoming Bibi's personal B.
I thought the 2024 election rigging was all wild speculation?
I agree the pieces are there for it to happen but I didn't see any actual evidence.
I saw an analysis of results in deep-blue Arizona cities where there were quite a few people who voted for Trump...then Democrat down the rest of the ballot.
It's not hard evidence, but it's suspicious. The problem the US has is that the winners are quite okay with winning at any cost and don't see a problem, even if the win was stolen.
There's an active court case in New York uncovering indications of tampering and wild statistical anomalies. This blog is a little conspiratorial sounding, but it's also doing a difficult job of putting back together the pieces of what is looking like a well executed technological coup.

Yes and no. As others have stated, there isn't a whole lot of evidence that any specific cheating was happening. But historically Republicans have always cheated and if there was a way to cheat they would cheat. They have been slowly putting people into positions that would allow them to affect the elections. They have been making laws to make it harder for people to vote that they don't want voting.
I think the more interesting question is if they did cheat, would it even matter?
It would change the narrative but it's not like they would follow the courts of they said it was stolen and had to be redone or something
Pretty much all I ever talk about, and its also all over the news, idk where you're taking shelter under.
Always appreciate more attention on it, tho, good work.
Oh yes we are. The news has a short memory but we don't. F that guy.
I am so drunk rn but I can't wait to read this tomorrow because you are a goddess sharing fucking .gov sources to a mother fucking bill and I'm ALL ABOUT those kind of sources after years of clickbait news
we the people have probably read more of any given proposed bill than the republican congress voting on it, how fucked is that?
It does feel like that story just got moved from way too fast.
No a real act or terror is burning empty cybertrucks.

Well, Americans shooting each other is hardly news.
it is when the republicans skim their knee
It's almost to that point with republican domestic terrorists. Hell, they admitted as much at cpac
