Still curious about whether citizens arrest for alleged felonious activity is a thing. All over arresting musk and his minions. Embarrass the crap out of them.
The right federal judge can deputize! They would shut down a federal martial effort to address contempt of court!! Elon has a mental health problem!! Its obvious!
Yep so he recruits not vetted kids! And they approach it like kids do!! What key strikes are they leaving? whats their game objective?? What reports are going to Elon to run his mouth with?? Facts yet Elon? Or do you just take them out if its discovered their fake? Can Donald walk back "200 yr old people". If its a coding differance? Stupid fools!!
Yes.... if Elon Musk can hack into the federal government..it is a piece of cake to cause a bomb distraction to change votes. Russian my ass.... Elon and Trump
Exactly!! How many people.signed up for his rigged million dollar sweep.stake? He admitted that! For 100 Yankee dollara?? A fake sweepstakes .what info from the entries Elon?? I know your game!!
It would not have been hard for mal ware to be installed into the voting & tabulation machines in the swing states before election day to activate at the time of the evacuations from the called in bomb threats. No one would ever know unless the machines software were audited & malware looked for in the code. Vote/ballot re count likely wouldn't find the issue. The voting machines are not connected to the internet so mal ware of some sort has to be the key to the swing states.
Election researchers have now virtually proven that the Tramp tilted the election in his favor in seven key swing states. The number of "bullet" votes, i.e. votes submitted that marked only a single nominee on the entire ballot (there are always a few) were WAY out of line with the norm in all seven states. They have cited numerous ways in which this could be accomplished, especially by the guy who the Tramp says "knows more about those voting machines that anybody else". A blatant steal that DEMANDS a hand recount. Betcha he lost in every one.
But she can make his life miserabke! She is aligned with a national alliance of democrats who are AG's!! Pressure captain bone spur with a flanked resistance of his nonsense with facts! And legal influence!
Well that really says.how.stupid.he is! Its.not.the.first.time! Last term he bragged he "defunded the post office to mess with the.mail in votes!". Didnt.work! He declared he.won before.all the votes were.counted that time too!
He even said as much at the inaugural address during his inauguration ceremony in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda on Jan. 20, 2025 Trump: Elon Musk knows 'those vote counting computers'.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9gCyRkpPe8
A 10yr old can hack a computer Musk probably had a collection of software people hack all over the country The data supports this and election integrity and protecting the voting machines is very important going into the midterms
Good point. But. The thing is he has a track record of bragging about things he’s done he knew were wrong thinking he’s above the law. The documents in the bathroom. The assaults. The cheating at just about everything in business, golf, marriage..it goes on and on. So he lays bare what he feels is his one upsmanship all the time.
Republicans definitely rigged the election via voter suppression. We need to a audit the purged votes. However I don't see how we rectify the results without calling for a new election.. and that will take the will of the PEOPLE to accomplish.
I have no idea how we rectify this. This country has never seen the likes of Trump. At the very least, maybe he gets impeached. In both houses this time. He needs to go down in shame and then go to prison where he belongs. We can’t let him get away with what he’s doing to us!
Oh absolutely! He's a traitor. I firmly believe he's compromised by Putin and it's Putin directing the destruction of America!. That's why they're operating at lightening speed to get our data, purge our administrative agencies. Put a drunk at DOD, a spy in Intelligence, and a QAnon QUACK with Russian ties over the FBI.. so that we can't respond to a attacks. This is treasonous, big time!
I think you're exactly right. Putin has every geopolitical incentive to weaken not just the US, but to weaken the western alliance generally. He also has an axe to grind because of the fall of the USSR, which he blames on the US, and because of the role our State Department had in encouraging the Russian pro-democracy movement (now destroyed). For Putin, this is personal.
Yup..and he's enjoying every minute of this. I'm waiting until we start calling this what it is, a coup.. directed by Putin. I think the very next steps are to start going after Republicans in the house and senate RELENTLESSLY.Call them out. by name, on the floor of Congress, the halls, in their communities and on social media. They should be made to answer everyday for their traitorous choices..After all, without Republicans, Trump is just a FREAK show instead of the THREAT he is. They were supposed to be our guardrails against fascism...Nothing but snakes..the whole lot of them.
Just today I received email advertisements from Starlink and Tesla. I was subscribed to their investment company and I didn’t even do it! I’m painstakingly shutting down my 25 year old gmail account and going with Proton — a swiss email provider. My phone is locked down as a phone, texting, camera. No social media, no banking, no shopping online. I have gone into my credit history and deleted old accounts and locked them. I now use a credit union as a middle man to pay all my basic living bills. Then roll over all savings into a brokerage account.

American Kompromat: How the KGB Cultivated Donald Trump, and Related Tales of Sex, Greed, Power, and Treachery Hardcover – January 26, 2021
by Craig Unger (Author)
This is a story about the dirty secrets of the most powerful people in the world—including Donald Trump.
Based on exclusive interviews with intelligence officers in the CIA, FBI, and the KGB, thousands of pages of FBI investigations, police investigations, and news articles in English, Russian, and Ukrainian. American Kompromat shows that from Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, kompromat was used in operations far more sinister than the public could ever imagine.
The book addresses what may be the single most important unanswered question of the entire Trump era: Is Donald Trump a Russian asset?
The answer, American Kompromat says, is yes, supporting that conclusion with the first richly detailed narrative on how the KGB allegedly first “spotted” Trump as a potential asset, how it cultivated him, arranged his first trip to Moscow, and pumped him full of KGB talking points.
Among its many revelations, American Kompromat reports for the first time that:
• According to former KGB major Yuri Shvets, Trump first did business over forty years ago with a Manhattan electronics store co-owned by a Soviet émigré, triggering protocols through which the Soviet spy agency began efforts to cultivate Trump as an asset, launching a decades-long “relationship” of mutual benefit to Russia and Trump, from real estate to real power.
• Trump’s 1987 invitation to Moscow was billed as a scouting trip for a hotel, but according to Shvets, was actually initiated by a high-level KGB official. These sorts of trips were usually arranged for "deep development."
• Before Trump’s first Moscow trip, he met with Natalia Dubinin, who worked at the United Nations library in a vital position usually reserved as a cover for KGB operatives.
• In 1987, according to Shvets, the KGB circulated an internal cable hailing the successful execution of an active measure by a newly cultivated American asset who took out full-page ads in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Boston Globe promoting policies promoted by the KGB. The ads had been taken out by Donald Trump, who, Shvets said, would become a “special unofficial contact” for the KGB.
In addition to exploring Trump’s ties to the KGB, American Kompromat also reveals:
• How Jeffrey Epstein and Trump jostled for influence and financial supremacy for years. Epstein became a millionaire in part with the help of Ghislaine Maxwell’s father—media tycoon Robert Maxwell, who allegedly served as a spy and likely gave Epstein a sum between $10 and $20 million before his death in 1991.
• How the Epstein-Ghislaine Maxwell sex-trafficking operation provided a source and marketplace for sexual kompromat.
• How the Epstein-Maxwell ring helped enable young women with possible ties to Russian intelligence to gain access to the highest levels of Silicon Valley and the worlds of artificial intelligence, supercomputers, and the internet. This, at a time when Vladimir Putin has asserted, “Whoever becomes the leader in this sphere [artificial intelligence] will become the ruler of the world.”
• How John Mark Dougan, a former deputy sheriff in Mar-a-Lago’s Palm Beach County, says he acquired 478 videos confiscated from the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, fled to Moscow, became only the fourth American to win asylum in Russia, and immediately gained access to Putin’s inner circle, showing the ongoing power that comes from kompromat and how its value is highest before it is “used.”
I've some of the artices on this. There was one a few years back in the Guardian. There is no doubt Trump is working for Putin. The question is, what are we going to do about it?
Yes, he is.. but Trump is made more dangerous as a puppet of Putin. I firmly believe Putin has kompromat on Trump and is directing the take down of America from within... that's pretty dangerous.
Trump is a symptom of the problem. The problem itself goes back at least to the beginning of the Reagan administration. The disintegration of the Republican Party has played a major role -- Dana Milbank's THE DESTRUCTIONISTS is good on this.
P.S. What do you see as the chances of Trump being impeached by a Republican-run House and convicted by a Republican-run Senate? True, the Republican majorities are slim, but that's still a virtually insurmountable hurdle.
I had no problem idea that the republic collapsed so quickly. All those swing states. Just, just enough to not be able to ask for a recount. Isn’t that so strange! The contest to get your names was so easy.
He needs more them impeachment. He needs to be tried for treason. He should have been during his first run. If Congress had done it's job, chances are we wouldn't be here now. Both parties need to recognize the dangers and work together to rectify the situation. Also I think there are a number of Congressmen he seems to control. We need to find out what he's holding over their head and then everyone one of them needs to be dismssed, empeached or something. This is the government of the people. It's high time they get back to working for the people, not a party, not a president, and certainly not the likes of Elon Musk. Where are all those dedicated military groups we see going in to take care of dictators and radical groups.. We could sure use one about now.
You're on to something that the others are missing. In Republican-run states, voter suppression has been out in the open for decades, targeting especially people of color and young people. Add in the effects of the Citizens United decision (2010) and Shelby County v. Holder (2013), and the picture becomes even clearer. But those effects won't be rectified by holding a new election.
The constitution of USA doesn’t work if elected officials are bought. I prefer the British way of government. Not perfect by any means. But. Holy smokes USA is almost doomed because states elected the likes of McConnell, Collins, Cruz and others for years
You may be right. I don’t know if the election was stolen, or if we have let politicians make it much easier to suppress votes. I wouldn’t doubt that people like Ch(r)ump and fElon WOULD do it, though, and I believe an audit is perfectly reasonable to suggest.
People need to remember, especially now, that local elections matter! We also need to get the Trump sycophants OUT of the house and senate!
He talked about a “rigged election” for 4 years. No one had the stomach to talk about it again. He knew what he was doing!! Now, he’s selling the US to the highest bidder.
I think you are exactly right!! How can we stop him? Vote count? Latitia ames and her other Dem.. connections?? Donald will never ever admit he did something wrong!! Malignant Narcist can't!! He's always A victim!
He loves repeating "too big to rig". It's a gloat, gets a semi being about to announce it. They kept up and exceeded the count. And we been letting politicians handle our money when they can't find 3tril pentagon loss, misappropriated cuts of the pie and vote numbers.
The election result was intentionally overwhelmingly in his favor to avoid any question he had won. Didn't he also make a comment that him and Mike Johnson had a secret that they would win the House? I always found that suspect.
I don't follow Greg Palast per se but I know he did a deep dive into election results, and of course found cheating from voter suppression etc. Not to mention what the scent of musk hinted that he did with AI ... Here is a link:
My observation is that Democratic Leaders always say one thing in response to anything the Republicans do and that is "ain't it awful". Then they do nothing.
He admitted at his rally the night before the inauguration, that he rigged the election, and that Elon knows all about the voting machines in PA. And what do you know, a Starlink satellite crashes a few days later. Destroy the evidence.
Hopefully the tide is turning. I am sensing major outrage in this Repuglican stronghold in Florida, and it is bringing people closer together, with a common enemy. Hope it lasts. The harm that has been done was done quickly and senselessly. It may take years for us to return to "normal," if ever. And we know who to blame.
People need to speak out & admit they were lied to by the Republican party, right wing radio like Limbaugh & FAUX "news" for years. Regan got rid of the Fairness Doctrine that led directly to Limbaugh & FAUX. His tax code changes led directly to billionaires controlling 80+% of the wealth in the USA & now serious power in the government. The consolidation of most of the wealth by the few has led to the Authoritarian Oligarchy & corruption that is happening now.
JD Vance once believed & publicly called Trump a fascist. Now he's his VP in lock step after working for & being turned by billionaire Thiel.
We're not going back to "normal" anytime soon. We have a big problem in this country and it's NOT the economy nor immigration. It's that we've allowed a President to ascend to the White House with the help of our enemy, who now has control of our country. I can't say it strongly enough, Trump is compromised by Putin and is attacking this country from within! Why do you think we have a drunk at DOD, a spy in Intelligence, a QANON quack with Russian ties over the FBI, while PURGING the patriots who served this country for decades? These are PUTIN'S choices. These are Putin's tactics. If we don't stop it soon, before Putin gets the rest of the patriots out, and our national secrets and data in his hands, (whatever is left from the last data dump Trump gave him from Mar-a-lago), Putin will have the entire world over a barrel..
Well they're doing something with all that data.. Personally I think they're going to hand it off to Putin for use in the new world order they envision. But who really knows with these evil thinkers..
The answer to this rogue fascist regime is not legislative, that's lost It's up to us WE THE PEOPLE!!! If Kings Trump and Musk want to take down the people's republic then come at us
I say that WE THE PEOPLE take his government down by a DEBT STRIKE On the street protests are fine but an ECONOMIC PROTEST would collapse King Trump We need to organize like we did in 1776
The People's Union could be the coordination force needed for a DEBT STRIKE.....economic power lies in the hands of THE PEOPLE Worthwhile for everyone to join and link arms together!! https://jointhepeoplesunion.com/
My kids still use my Amazon account because they are professionals who have hectic lives. I, on the other hand, have not bought anything since December and will continue to boycott.
Your kids may not have a democracy to live in.........For their country, constiturion and freedom.........Amazon should be shut down during the boycott.
We Canadians are united coast to coast against the Orange menace.
Screw weeklong boycott of Amazon. Just delete your account altogether and learn to shop local. It’s not that difficult. Underconsume and stop buying crap. Get rid of Meta and gmail if you have it. Just learn to live more simply and stop supporting oligarchs through their companies. Not just a week but forever.
This is easier said than done. The way I've handled this is that i shop local wherever I can. Then i shop online in ANY store other than Amazon. I only shop Amazon when I can't get it anywhere else. This has allowed me to significantly curtail my Amazon shopping.
Canada has boycotting of Kentucky and Tennessee products. Btw. Canada was the largest importer of those goods. McConnell is your fault. You voted for him !
Our Prime Minister Trudeau has mentioned Red states will be targeted with boycotts. One has to punch back immediatly when dealing with a narcissitic,rapist,felon,dictator,bully,child molester and a leader that hates the very people who voted for him.
We welcome the Blue states....who must be tired of supporting Red states that hate them so totally.........it is mindboggeling.........
Everyone needs to call their congress rep & senator & remind them they are there to represent their constituents & if they refuse to do their job, standing by & allow/ condone Trump & Musk tearing the government apart without one word or action to stop it they will very likely be primaried & voted out of office by the voters.
That would not be the redneck northwest of the state, who will fight to the death to defend their MAGA messiah, but from all the transplanted retirees in their manufactured home communities and elite "villages" who see their Social Security incomes in jeopardy.
Good News tonight Finally, CBS and 60 Minutes News program are within their Rights to Fight Back. Just as Maine's Governor Mills is Fighting Back Too. Good Job reporting this evening, Mayor Ben, and will reStack ASAP 💯👍🇺🇸💙
I'm glad they're finally getting there cajones back, for those that did kneell before their overlord, But I for one will not be going back to any of those former news sources that I gave up over lies. Wapo and NYT are dead to me.
Every American who cares about our country, democracy, free speech, national security, etc need to keep fighting back until the Spineless Gop grow a backbone impeach the orange felon, and deport Musk back to Africa where he belongs!
Revoke his citizenship, seize his US assets, cancel his government contracts, THEN deport him. Use the assets to pay down the national debt. Now THAT'S what I call getting rid of government waste.
The spineless R's are complicit in this whole gambit, not spineless Forget about them in the equation
The answer to this rogue fascist regime is not legislative, that's lost It's up to us WE THE PEOPLE!!! If Kings Trump and Musk want to take down the people's republic then come at us

It is about damn time they are speaking up. Because they are losing viewership and following. I will start listening when they tell they truth and stop being afraid of their job: journalism.
Well, it seems like the people and legacy media are starting to push back against idiot Trump and his ridiculous administration. Keep it up MTN and the rest of the liberal podcasts getting the truth out!!! "IT'S NOT OVER UNTIL IT'S OVER." Yes, indeed... keep resisting!!!
I think it’s time they understand this is not actually Nazi Germany! We have history to learn from. And Americans will not put up with this crap. Even GOP constituents are turning against them. They can’t win, if we don’t let them win.
I also think that when people see other people fighting, it gives them the courage to stand up as well. I think this is going to be a snowball effect and I don’t think it’s going to bode well for the Mango’s administration.
Every consumer and that's all of us need to fight for our rights to be protected

It’s time to audit the election results. He DID NOT WIN!!!
https://youtu.be/6G8fu50VRXo?si=KQdtupDeIyE1V_ZQ
I agree from what he said recently he admitted that he cheated to win Pennsylvania I wonder how many other states he cheated to win
He won all 7 swing states??? I call bullshit!
Right!! Ain’t nooo way!
Reported. Scam. DO NOT CLICK
The people of Pennsylvania said no way!!!
Donald only knows how to lie and how to cheat!! Prove me wrong??
Nice one 👍
Impossible
Rachel is reported for spam and blocked. Stop liking that troll comment.
Yeah, it's very annoying. I've blocked her so don't even see that post anymore.
I don't think it's actually any of us hitting the like button. Probably other bots (?). I reported it as well, and yes, annoying as hell.
Yep. That is totally outside the law of normal distribution. Highly improbable he won all 7 swing states.
Still curious about whether citizens arrest for alleged felonious activity is a thing. All over arresting musk and his minions. Embarrass the crap out of them.
The right federal judge can deputize! They would shut down a federal martial effort to address contempt of court!! Elon has a mental health problem!! Its obvious!
Elon is a drug addict and he hates rejection.He is getting put down by America.I'm hoping he over dose's on ketimine.
Problem is unless trump is.impeached hes.just going to pardon elon! Donald inherited a.functioning healthy economy! Look what he is doing to.it??
Trade wars! Jobless spike! National Debt increase! "everything he touches he.ruins!!". Prove me wrong!
We need to get his.fowl smelling ass.out of therr!! throw him out by his WWE Fake.shot off ear please!!!
I thought it was kinda weird.that he was bragging on musk saying
"that Elon he knows those computers like nobody else" back a few months ago when the beginning of the shit show to be first got erected.
But as always that's my opinion and I'm sticking to it.
Yep so he recruits not vetted kids! And they approach it like kids do!! What key strikes are they leaving? whats their game objective?? What reports are going to Elon to run his mouth with?? Facts yet Elon? Or do you just take them out if its discovered their fake? Can Donald walk back "200 yr old people". If its a coding differance? Stupid fools!!
Yes.... if Elon Musk can hack into the federal government..it is a piece of cake to cause a bomb distraction to change votes. Russian my ass.... Elon and Trump
I fear the two pathological narcissists have access to this.
https://www.exascaleproject.org/
Exactly!! How many people.signed up for his rigged million dollar sweep.stake? He admitted that! For 100 Yankee dollara?? A fake sweepstakes .what info from the entries Elon?? I know your game!!
Bingo!!!
Well, lf course Putin IS in the background no matter who decides on the way they carry out his (ahem) 'suggestions'.
It would not have been hard for mal ware to be installed into the voting & tabulation machines in the swing states before election day to activate at the time of the evacuations from the called in bomb threats. No one would ever know unless the machines software were audited & malware looked for in the code. Vote/ballot re count likely wouldn't find the issue. The voting machines are not connected to the internet so mal ware of some sort has to be the key to the swing states.
Go to GregPalast.com … he lays it allllll out!!!
All of the swing States!
yes! ALL. He cheated bigly!
And Russia helped him.
Right in front of us!
I've been saying this from day one.
Election researchers have now virtually proven that the Tramp tilted the election in his favor in seven key swing states. The number of "bullet" votes, i.e. votes submitted that marked only a single nominee on the entire ballot (there are always a few) were WAY out of line with the norm in all seven states. They have cited numerous ways in which this could be accomplished, especially by the guy who the Tramp says "knows more about those voting machines that anybody else". A blatant steal that DEMANDS a hand recount. Betcha he lost in every one.
We must let Latitia James know!! Give her the facts! She will fry his incontinent ass!!
New York was not one of the swing states. So Letitia James has no jurisdiction.
But she can make his life miserabke! She is aligned with a national alliance of democrats who are AG's!! Pressure captain bone spur with a flanked resistance of his nonsense with facts! And legal influence!
He needs to get out of there. Its a "pressure cooker".
Wisconsin, Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, and Pennsylvania.
I'd absolutely LOVE to know that WI voters were smart enough to go for Kamala!!
Well that really says.how.stupid.he is! Its.not.the.first.time! Last term he bragged he "defunded the post office to mess with the.mail in votes!". Didnt.work! He declared he.won before.all the votes were.counted that time too!

No he didn’t. He followed the old Jim Crowe Laws to disenfranchise ppl of color and others. Watch the documentary on YouTube called vigilante Inc
He even said as much at the inaugural address during his inauguration ceremony in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda on Jan. 20, 2025 Trump: Elon Musk knows 'those vote counting computers'.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F9gCyRkpPe8

So you're assuming this is the only true thing that Trump ever said?
Good point. But. The thing is he has a track record of bragging about things he’s done he knew were wrong thinking he’s above the law. The documents in the bathroom. The assaults. The cheating at just about everything in business, golf, marriage..it goes on and on. So he lays bare what he feels is his one upsmanship all the time.

Oh absolutely! He's a traitor. I firmly believe he's compromised by Putin and it's Putin directing the destruction of America!. That's why they're operating at lightening speed to get our data, purge our administrative agencies. Put a drunk at DOD, a spy in Intelligence, and a QAnon QUACK with Russian ties over the FBI.. so that we can't respond to a attacks. This is treasonous, big time!

Just today I received email advertisements from Starlink and Tesla. I was subscribed to their investment company and I didn’t even do it! I’m painstakingly shutting down my 25 year old gmail account and going with Proton — a swiss email provider. My phone is locked down as a phone, texting, camera. No social media, no banking, no shopping online. I have gone into my credit history and deleted old accounts and locked them. I now use a credit union as a middle man to pay all my basic living bills. Then roll over all savings into a brokerage account.
Being a traitor and committing treason as a president should be punishable by a noosing and dropping the bottom out from under his azz.

American Kompromat: How the KGB Cultivated Donald Trump, and Related Tales of Sex, Greed, Power, and Treachery Hardcover – January 26, 2021
by Craig Unger (Author)
This is a story about the dirty secrets of the most powerful people in the world—including Donald Trump.
Based on exclusive interviews with intelligence officers in the CIA, FBI, and the KGB, thousands of pages of FBI investigations, police investigations, and news articles in English, Russian, and Ukrainian. American Kompromat shows that from Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, kompromat was used in operations far more sinister than the public could ever imagine.

I believe it!
I've some of the artices on this. There was one a few years back in the Guardian. There is no doubt Trump is working for Putin. The question is, what are we going to do about it?
By all rights...he should be hung!
But then we get JD Vance who is not a major improvement....
He wasn’t elected either!!
But almost everyone hates JD!
He's an even bigger problem. because he's a traitor and he's smart.
Yeah he is smart; but, I think he is outsmarting himself. I believe he is more dangerous than Trump.
Yes, he is.. but Trump is made more dangerous as a puppet of Putin. I firmly believe Putin has kompromat on Trump and is directing the take down of America from within... that's pretty dangerous.
He'll just try to con the prison guards into sneaking him out in the laundry.
Trump is a symptom of the problem. The problem itself goes back at least to the beginning of the Reagan administration. The disintegration of the Republican Party has played a major role -- Dana Milbank's THE DESTRUCTIONISTS is good on this.
P.S. What do you see as the chances of Trump being impeached by a Republican-run House and convicted by a Republican-run Senate? True, the Republican majorities are slim, but that's still a virtually insurmountable hurdle.
I had no problem idea that the republic collapsed so quickly. All those swing states. Just, just enough to not be able to ask for a recount. Isn’t that so strange! The contest to get your names was so easy.
He needs more them impeachment. He needs to be tried for treason. He should have been during his first run. If Congress had done it's job, chances are we wouldn't be here now. Both parties need to recognize the dangers and work together to rectify the situation. Also I think there are a number of Congressmen he seems to control. We need to find out what he's holding over their head and then everyone one of them needs to be dismssed, empeached or something. This is the government of the people. It's high time they get back to working for the people, not a party, not a president, and certainly not the likes of Elon Musk. Where are all those dedicated military groups we see going in to take care of dictators and radical groups.. We could sure use one about now.

You're on to something that the others are missing. In Republican-run states, voter suppression has been out in the open for decades, targeting especially people of color and young people. Add in the effects of the Citizens United decision (2010) and Shelby County v. Holder (2013), and the picture becomes even clearer. But those effects won't be rectified by holding a new election.
The constitution of USA doesn’t work if elected officials are bought. I prefer the British way of government. Not perfect by any means. But. Holy smokes USA is almost doomed because states elected the likes of McConnell, Collins, Cruz and others for years
You may be right. I don’t know if the election was stolen, or if we have let politicians make it much easier to suppress votes. I wouldn’t doubt that people like Ch(r)ump and fElon WOULD do it, though, and I believe an audit is perfectly reasonable to suggest.
People need to remember, especially now, that local elections matter! We also need to get the Trump sycophants OUT of the house and senate!
He talked about a “rigged election” for 4 years. No one had the stomach to talk about it again. He knew what he was doing!! Now, he’s selling the US to the highest bidder.
I think you are exactly right!! How can we stop him? Vote count? Latitia ames and her other Dem.. connections?? Donald will never ever admit he did something wrong!! Malignant Narcist can't!! He's always A victim!
I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but a lot seemed off about the 2024 election.
Neither am I, but you simply cannot tell me that dump won ALL 7 swing states!!!
💯💯💯
He loves repeating "too big to rig". It's a gloat, gets a semi being about to announce it. They kept up and exceeded the count. And we been letting politicians handle our money when they can't find 3tril pentagon loss, misappropriated cuts of the pie and vote numbers.
Funny but it wasn't "too big to rig" in 2020, right?
I have always said, if Trump is accusing someone of something, he’s doing it himself!
Yes please!!!!!!!
The election result was intentionally overwhelmingly in his favor to avoid any question he had won. Didn't he also make a comment that him and Mike Johnson had a secret that they would win the House? I always found that suspect.
Yes! Me too!!
I really really question the results.
Watch the video. It’s compelling
thanks for this contribution....very important objective understanding of voting and how the machines can be manipulated
I don't follow Greg Palast per se but I know he did a deep dive into election results, and of course found cheating from voter suppression etc. Not to mention what the scent of musk hinted that he did with AI ... Here is a link:

I agree whole-heartedly. In fact, I am surprised (and angry!) it hasn't happened yet. Is it because Democrats are too polite?
My husband says this all of the time. It’s time we quit being so nice.
My observation is that Democratic Leaders always say one thing in response to anything the Republicans do and that is "ain't it awful". Then they do nothing.
This is the person who did the movie and can back it up with stats.
Vigilantes Inc - Greg Palast
He admitted at his rally the night before the inauguration, that he rigged the election, and that Elon knows all about the voting machines in PA. And what do you know, a Starlink satellite crashes a few days later. Destroy the evidence.
Oh, boy! Do I ever ever ever agree!!!!
Hopefully the tide is turning. I am sensing major outrage in this Repuglican stronghold in Florida, and it is bringing people closer together, with a common enemy. Hope it lasts. The harm that has been done was done quickly and senselessly. It may take years for us to return to "normal," if ever. And we know who to blame.
Floridians I know that were pro Trump are embarrassed. It’s giving me hope.
Good because we have two special elections coming up in April which could help flip the house!!
I’m betting it doesn’t. What are Vegas odds I wonder?

They should be ashamed not embarrassed.
Those of us with sense to see beyond our pulpits and security gates and conscientious enough to care were definitely NOT pro-Tramp.
Me, too! Thanks for letting me (us?) know. Seldom hear about that--or at least--not enough of it.
Does that include the "Golfcarts for tRump" at The Villages?
People need to speak out & admit they were lied to by the Republican party, right wing radio like Limbaugh & FAUX "news" for years. Regan got rid of the Fairness Doctrine that led directly to Limbaugh & FAUX. His tax code changes led directly to billionaires controlling 80+% of the wealth in the USA & now serious power in the government. The consolidation of most of the wealth by the few has led to the Authoritarian Oligarchy & corruption that is happening now.
JD Vance once believed & publicly called Trump a fascist. Now he's his VP in lock step after working for & being turned by billionaire Thiel.
We're not going back to "normal" anytime soon. We have a big problem in this country and it's NOT the economy nor immigration. It's that we've allowed a President to ascend to the White House with the help of our enemy, who now has control of our country. I can't say it strongly enough, Trump is compromised by Putin and is attacking this country from within! Why do you think we have a drunk at DOD, a spy in Intelligence, a QANON quack with Russian ties over the FBI, while PURGING the patriots who served this country for decades? These are PUTIN'S choices. These are Putin's tactics. If we don't stop it soon, before Putin gets the rest of the patriots out, and our national secrets and data in his hands, (whatever is left from the last data dump Trump gave him from Mar-a-lago), Putin will have the entire world over a barrel..
Get MAD America, we are under ATTACK!
Well said and so true!
I fear the two pathological narcissists have access to this
https://www.exascaleproject.org/
Well they're doing something with all that data.. Personally I think they're going to hand it off to Putin for use in the new world order they envision. But who really knows with these evil thinkers..
The answer to this rogue fascist regime is not legislative, that's lost It's up to us WE THE PEOPLE!!! If Kings Trump and Musk want to take down the people's republic then come at us
I say that WE THE PEOPLE take his government down by a DEBT STRIKE On the street protests are fine but an ECONOMIC PROTEST would collapse King Trump We need to organize like we did in 1776
The People's Union could be the coordination force needed for a DEBT STRIKE.....economic power lies in the hands of THE PEOPLE Worthwhile for everyone to join and link arms together!! https://jointhepeoplesunion.com/
Peoples Union calling for
24 Hour Economic Blackout
Feb 27-28
In March....a weeklong boycott of Amazon!!
Get the word out and take action people!!!
My kids still use my Amazon account because they are professionals who have hectic lives. I, on the other hand, have not bought anything since December and will continue to boycott.
Your kids may not have a democracy to live in.........For their country, constiturion and freedom.........Amazon should be shut down during the boycott.
We Canadians are united coast to coast against the Orange menace.
You guys need to take this coup seriously
Spot on. Americans need to stop coddling themselves and give up a few things up to keep their country..,
I've severely curtailed my spending too..
Screw weeklong boycott of Amazon. Just delete your account altogether and learn to shop local. It’s not that difficult. Underconsume and stop buying crap. Get rid of Meta and gmail if you have it. Just learn to live more simply and stop supporting oligarchs through their companies. Not just a week but forever.
This is easier said than done. The way I've handled this is that i shop local wherever I can. Then i shop online in ANY store other than Amazon. I only shop Amazon when I can't get it anywhere else. This has allowed me to significantly curtail my Amazon shopping.
I already canceled my Amazon membership FJB. I canceled my Twitter account when Musk said he was going to buy it. FEM.
Canada has boycotting of Kentucky and Tennessee products. Btw. Canada was the largest importer of those goods. McConnell is your fault. You voted for him !
Our Prime Minister Trudeau has mentioned Red states will be targeted with boycotts. One has to punch back immediatly when dealing with a narcissitic,rapist,felon,dictator,bully,child molester and a leader that hates the very people who voted for him.
We welcome the Blue states....who must be tired of supporting Red states that hate them so totally.........it is mindboggeling.........
Which week in March?
14th
Everyone needs to call their congress rep & senator & remind them they are there to represent their constituents & if they refuse to do their job, standing by & allow/ condone Trump & Musk tearing the government apart without one word or action to stop it they will very likely be primaried & voted out of office by the voters.

That would not be the redneck northwest of the state, who will fight to the death to defend their MAGA messiah, but from all the transplanted retirees in their manufactured home communities and elite "villages" who see their Social Security incomes in jeopardy.
Ohio senators are still spineless supporting this crazy man and his buddy.
Good News tonight Finally, CBS and 60 Minutes News program are within their Rights to Fight Back. Just as Maine's Governor Mills is Fighting Back Too. Good Job reporting this evening, Mayor Ben, and will reStack ASAP 💯👍🇺🇸💙
Walter Cronkite would have crushed Donable Lector.
Love him or hate him he would be smiling about
CBS refusing to surrender to Orange Hitler
Um didn’t they pay him already? CEO said trump rating we’re all that mattered!
The media is fighting back because The Meidas Touch showed them how to do it right!
CONSUMER PROTECTIONS? Cry harder, Dumpy. You don’t care about CONSUMER PROTECTIONS, as proven by getting rid of the CFPB 😑
I'm glad they're finally getting there cajones back, for those that did kneell before their overlord, But I for one will not be going back to any of those former news sources that I gave up over lies. Wapo and NYT are dead to me.
You’re doing stellar work, thank you!
Our freedom of speech is under attack. I'm glad we're fighting back
Every American who cares about our country, democracy, free speech, national security, etc need to keep fighting back until the Spineless Gop grow a backbone impeach the orange felon, and deport Musk back to Africa where he belongs!
Revoke his citizenship, seize his US assets, cancel his government contracts, THEN deport him. Use the assets to pay down the national debt. Now THAT'S what I call getting rid of government waste.
The spineless R's are complicit in this whole gambit, not spineless Forget about them in the equation

We should go after Republicans RELENTLESSLY! Without them, Trump is nothing more than a freak show, instead of the threat he is!

It is about damn time they are speaking up. Because they are losing viewership and following. I will start listening when they tell they truth and stop being afraid of their job: journalism.
I don’t think Ann was wrong. Just look at the seat that was flipped in that special election in Iowa by 27 points!
Well, it seems like the people and legacy media are starting to push back against idiot Trump and his ridiculous administration. Keep it up MTN and the rest of the liberal podcasts getting the truth out!!! "IT'S NOT OVER UNTIL IT'S OVER." Yes, indeed... keep resisting!!!
I think it’s time they understand this is not actually Nazi Germany! We have history to learn from. And Americans will not put up with this crap. Even GOP constituents are turning against them. They can’t win, if we don’t let them win.
I also think that when people see other people fighting, it gives them the courage to stand up as well. I think this is going to be a snowball effect and I don’t think it’s going to bode well for the Mango’s administration.
I agree.
Now that 60 Minutes and CBS have taken this step to fight back it will encourage other networks with real journalists will follow.
As he’s dismantling the consumer protection bureau.
