Creating Conspiracy Cells

This will create small highly effective cells of people who will willingly suck up this information.  It gives them an explanation and reason why it is happening.  Notice in the NPR article how they mention the audience is white.

Lincoln Rolling in his Grave

The part that he has once lead, not leads in voter suppresion. Lincoln must be rolling in his grave. If a party is working this hard to suppress your vote, they probably don't ahve any interest in actually governing towards your benefit. Just a thought. From one of the news sources that turnip calls fake. Only because that he does not like the negative things reported about him. Truly a snowflake if ever there was one. Pennsylvania: The state’s highest court has ruled that election officials should count mailed ballots that arrive up to three days after Election Day. Pennsylvania Republicans are trying to get the Supreme Court to reverse the order, so that only ballots received by Election Day will count. North Carolina: Republicans and the Trump campaign have asked the Supreme Court to block the state’s board of elections from extending the deadline to receive mail ballots. The board has said ballots can arrive until Nov. 12, as long as they were mailed by Election Day. Wisconsin: The five Republican-appointed justices on the Supreme Court sided on Monday with Republican officials in Wisconsin, ruling that ballots must arrive by 8 p.m. on Election Day to count. (A lower-court ruling would have allowed state officials to count any mailed ballots postmarked by Election Day and received up to six days later.) In response, the state’s Democratic Party is urging voters to return mail ballots in person — to a drop box or clerk’s office — rather than mailing them. Nevada: The Trump campaign has sued to stop the counting of absentee ballots in the Las Vegas area, evidently hoping to challenge the signatures on many ballots. Last night, the campaign and Nevada Republican Party filed a separate lawsuit, seeking detailed information on the vote-counting process. Texas: The state’s top court yesterday upheld a policy announced by Greg Abbott, the Republican governor, which limits each county to a single drop-off box for mailed ballots. The state’s largest county — Harris, which includes Houston — is home to 4.7 million people. Michigan: A conservative judge yesterday overturned an order by Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, a Democrat, and ruled that people could carry unconcealed guns at polling places on Election Day. In many of these cases, Republicans have argued that changing voting rules because of the pandemic could lead to fraud (a claim that’s largely baseless) and that allowing ballots to be counted after Election Day leads to confusion and chaos. Democrats have argued that protecting people’s right to vote, during a national crisis, should be top priority. Democrats have also pointed out that some Republicans have changed their position on the counting of mailed ballots: When late-arriving ballots seemed likely to help George W. Bush in Florida in 2000, Republicans argued that the state should count them.

Trump is a Security Risk

Many have been saying this for years. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/trump-taxes-national-security-compromise/2020/09/28/3116b096-01b5-11eb-897d-3a6201d6643f_story.html

Witness requirement removed

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/08/13/us/supreme-court-rhode-island-voting.html C'mon even republicans would not do this: "The court rejected a request from Republicans to block an order suspending a requirement that witnesses or a notary observe the completion of absentee ballots." "The Supreme Court’s unsigned order included an explanation, which is unusual when its acts on emergency applications. The case differed from similar ones in which state officials had opposed changes to state laws ordered by federal judges, the order said. “Here the state election officials support the challenged decree,” the order said, “and no state official has expressed opposition.”"

Extreme Gaslighting

https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/505924-judd-gregg-the-coming-biden-coup

Never had I read an article where the author is either to lazy to really did into his opposition, or is just flat out does not care. This whole article is one giant attempt at gas lighting the readers. Let's break this down:

  It really gets going when he writes this:
"Promoting and promulgating — not merely accepting — the massive protests that have occurred in some cities, even when they have led to lawlessness, looting, riots and declarations of autonomy."
- yes, because the outcome in one city is what the whole progressive movement is about. Totally wrong on the progressives to demand equal treatment under the law, the end to systemic racism, and an out of control police force.

Next:
"Searching out and destroying unbelievers in pursuit of a politically correct version of history, and doing so with a zeal that would have made Cotton Mather blush."
Kind of sounds like Trump and his loyalty oath.

Then:
"Removing statues of historical figures that are deemed unacceptable based on today’s parameters of social justice."
- Yes, because I am sure Black America really responds to statues of former confederate generals, and do not care to see any of their own history represented in this artistic form.

He calls the progressives a "fanatical group". Which again, just sounds like the small number of trump hold outs left. Look at how fanatical they are, please? 

"This is about power. All major elections are."
You are upset that maybe some Democrats have learned the republican lesson from 2010? They are determined to not let that happen again? For a republican to come out and say this is, almost the largest of hypocrisies.

 Judd Gregg has his head firmly planted in a dark place, and just refused to remove it.

Yeah, Right

We should not trust articles like these. They are the polls of 2016.

Liberal Ideas are the threat


Neat little article:

God forbid that a banker pay a fair amount in taxes, or a corporattion for that matter.
Heaven help us if Joe wins, and suddenly things start happening to help poor people and the rich people maybe pay a little more to help out. 

What a terrible world that would be.

Democracy dies a little more now

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/09/opinion/wisconsin-primary-democracy.html

"""
This November, it’s all too possible that Trump will eke out an Electoral College win thanks to widespread voter suppression. If he does — or even if he wins cleanly — everything we’ve seen suggests that he will use a second term to punish everyone he sees as a domestic enemy, and that his party will back him all the way. That is, America will do a full Hungary.
"""

I think this is a fact, not a possibility.

Carville is going slightly mad

https://www.commondreams.org/news/2020/02/23/msnbc-full-blown-freakout-mode-bernie-sanders-cements-status-democratic-frontrunner#

There is one point in the article, where Carville is said to have turned to the camera, smiled, waved, and said "Hi Vlad!" Carville has become more insistent that Russia is pushing the Bernie Sanders campaign, and this article has certainly come up in the news as well. This does make sense, as Russia only wants to sow more seeds of dissent in the US and other countries around the world.

Carville handed a nother win to Vlad, when he pulled his stupid stunt. You giving the idea at air at all, James, also gives Putin a win. Jim, you are not helping.

The party is not where his politics is at, and I don't believe the country is where he is at anymore. A lot has changed since he helped Billy boy get elected. I am sorry if he can not keep up with the rate of change.

Simply Amazing

https://thehill.com/video/in-the-news/474190-watch-live-house-judiciary-debates-impeachment-articles

I am still amazed that the republicans keep saying this. It was actually the will of the American People to have someone else as president if you just look at the vote tallies for each candidate. It is an antiquated system that however propelled our chief misogynist to the office he now holds.

Also, his landslide was one of the lowest EC victories in some time.

Then again, I know most Fox News viewers will only see the headline and refrain from doing any actual research on this topic.

Is Drumpf paying bribes now?

https://www.politico.com/news/2019/10/31/trump-impeachment-senators-donor-062084

Normally, I would say this is just the head of his party helping vulnerable members during an election cycle. But this particular cycle has a lot of agendas hidden from view. Like, for example, is Trump now buying support in the Senate to fight impeachment?


"""
On Wednesday, the Trump reelection campaign sent a fundraising appeal to its massive email list urging donors to provide a contribution that would be divided between the president and Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner, Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst, and North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis. Each of the senators are supporting the anti-impeachment resolution despite being endangered in 2020.

Excellent advertising


This. Exists. It's in Denmark. Good to see we're respected around the world again, probably more respected around the world than any other time in history.
