🚨 MUST WATCH. To me, this is the biggest story of the election, and I think it’s important everyone is aware how this happened.

UPDATE ON ARIZONA ELECTION 👇
Kari Lake spoke with Steve Bannon about this video but they didn't show the whole thing. I have been sitting on this video for about a week and seeing them talking about it reminded me I had a good version.

Harris wants us to accept the results of the election. But how am I supposed to accept it when there was so much fraud? So much election fraud happened and because it's in Trump's favor we don't care??? That's messed up. I don't want to live in a country with a felon as the president. As far as I'm concerned America is fucked.

I think the thing that bothered me the most about the whole “election rigging scandal” is not whether or not it actually happened, but just how quick people were to believe the government when they came out and said it didn’t happen. I think this comes back to the point I keep making about how Trump is actually an outsider, but everyone seems to have forgotten that because “orange man bad”.
When Trump and his people came out and said the election was rigged, whether it was or wasn’t is irrelevant. The only details that matter is that an outsider candidate, meaning someone who is not a politician, came out and publicly stated that the election process was rigged, and the insiders to the system, meaning the people who are politicians, said it wasn’t...and we just said: “Yup, that checks out.”
Like with as much whining that Liberals love to do about how “this is the most important election of our time” and “our civil liberties are at stake”, you’d think they’d maybe stop for a few seconds and ask themselves why they think that. Why do you think this election is important? Why do you think your rights are at stake? Could it be, perhaps, that you don’t trust your current representatives?
So let me get this straight, you don’t trust them when it comes to determining whether or not you keep your rights to exist, but you do trust them when they come out and say: “Uh yeah, actually the way we got this power is completely legit and foolproof, don’t worry. That guy’s just a lying poo poo head.”
People need to understand that politics aren’t absolute decisions. You don’t have to be on one side or the other when there’s a billion different sides to be on. You can say: “Yeah, I don’t believe Trump actually won the election” and still also at the same time say: “I don’t have faith in the current election process because it is both controlled and overseen by the same untrustworthy people who I don’t trust to maintain my rights and freedoms to exist.”
I don’t care whether or not you believe the election was rigged against Trump. What I care about is why you’re so readily able to believe the most untrustworthy people in the entire country, just because they also don’t like the same guy you don’t like. This isn’t some fantasy novel bullshit. There is no “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”, they’re all just your enemies.

Sam Levine at The Guardian:
A major conservative thinktank previewed rightwing efforts to overturn the 2024 election on Thursday, with a top official saying there was a “0% chance of a free and fair election”. Mike Howell, executive director of the Oversight Project at the Heritage Foundation, made the comments at an event in Washington sharing the results of a hypothetical exercise mapping out several implausible scenarios that could take place after the election. The outlandish scenarios involved Barbara Streisand being kidnapped by Hamas, antifa-BLM protesters taking over a detention facility and the FBI arresting Donald Trump after winning the election.
The effort was designed to muddy the waters over the threat to the 2024 election posed by Donald Trump, who has repeatedly refused to commit to accepting the election results and tried to overturn the 2020 vote. Instead, the Heritage Foundation, which is also behind the extreme Project 2025, wanted to suggest that it was Joe Biden who could try to overturn the result of the election, echoing the ex-president’s repeated claims that it is actually Biden who is the threat to democracy. “President Biden is very well-positioned to hold the White House by force in the case of an unfavorable electoral outcome,” the report summarizing the exercise says. “The lawlessness of the Biden administration – at the border, in staffing considerations, and in routine defiance of court rulings – makes clear that the current president and his administration not only possesses the means, but perhaps also the intent, to circumvent constitutional limits and disregard the will of the voters should they demand a new president.”
[...] But at the Heritage event, that reality was ignored. “I’m formally accusing the Biden administration of creating the conditions that most reasonable policymakers and officials cannot in good conscience certify an election,” Howell said. Howell’s comments are notable because Republican officials are increasingly putting pressure on the certification process in several states, an alarming development experts say could be a major part of an effort to overturn election results this fall. For example, Republican commissioners in Washoe county, the second most populous county in Nevada, recently refused to certify a primary without any evidence of wrongdoing. Republicans in Georgia are also seeking to give county election board members more discretion to slow down the certification of the election.
The report identifies four main “threats” to the 2024 election. One is that the Department of Justice identifies enough civil and voting rights violations to interfere in the certification of election results. The second is that law enforcement officials will “arrest opponents of the regime” (Trump has actually pledged to prosecute his enemies). The third is that there will be organized violence to intimidate state and local election officials (officials throughout the county have reported being harassed by those who believe Trump won). The fourth is that the media will suppress information.
Mike Howell of the right-wing think think Heritage Foundation made a baseless claim that there will be a “0% chance of a free and fair election” this year.

Power is not a means, it is an end. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now do you begin to understand me?” -  George Orwell, 1984
I recently read an article in the health magazine “Anxiety” titled, “The Psychology of Dictators: Power, Fear, Anxiety.” (02/03/24)  and was struck by the similarities between the personality traits described in the article and the  behaviour of Sir Kier Starmer.
Lets look at power first. Starmer's number one goal has always been power for powers sake.   His campaign to become Labour Party leader saw him make numerous left-wing political promises to Labour Party members, only for him to break everyone of them once he had secured the leadership of the party.
“Starmer: I’m ready to break pledges to make Labour electable"  (Independent: 28/09/21)
More recently we have this comment:
“Who is the real Keir Starmer? The man who won the Labour leadership in 2020 on a platform of left-wing pledges, and who thanked his “friend” Jeremy Corbyn during the contest? Or the one Westminster sees today, who abandoned many of those pledges and kicked Corbyn out of the party?”  Politico:30/06/23)
This brings us to the second personality trait: fear. Although powerful, dictators are constantly in fear of being challenged and overthrown by rivals, both real and imaginary. Dictators, claims the article, often become "vindictive", seeking retribution against those who disagree with them.
On becoming leader Starmer immediately instigated a purge of left-wing Labour MP’s and party members.  We know how he unceremoniously stripped Jeremy Corbyn of his Labour Party membership and of the disgraceful way he treated Dianne Abbott.
What is less well known are the accusations that he and his supporters blocked left-wing parliamentary candidates prior to the election campaign, replacing them with his own supporters.
“The Labour leader has been even more ruthless in imposing his favoured candidates on local parties than Tony Blair or Gordon Brown.” (Independent 30/05/24)
There have even been allegations of the Labour leadership being involved in vote rigging.
“Labour was plunged into crisis today after a bombshell report alleged that the selection contests for the Party’s parliamentary candidates may have been systematically rigged by supporters of Keir Starmer.”  (Labour Hub: 22/03/24)
The third trait of dictators is anxiety. This often leads to feelings of insecurity. I would suggest that two recent developments are clear signs of Starmer’s insecurity as a political leader: accusations of cronyism and his attack on democracy within the Labour Party
The media have recently been highlighting the appointment of former Labour Party donors to top civil servant jobs.
“Labour is facing allegations of cronyism after appointing several of its backers to prominent civil service roles.” (The Week: 27/08/24)
Yes, it is cronyism but it is also a glaring example of Starmer’s need to surround himself and his top team with “yes-men”. In the same way he has purged his party of internal opposition, he is stacking top civil service jobs with personnel who will carry out his orders unquestioningly. Starmer simply does not want to hear alternative views to his own, a typical trait of all dictators.
Also revealing of Starmer’s total aversion to opposition, and perhaps the most informative, is his plan to reverse the democratic processes of the Labour Party. Starmer has become so anxious and afraid of his own party members that he no longer trusts their judgement when it comes to party leadership elections.
“His plan, as briefed, is to confine the vote for his successor just to Labour MPs, eliminating the wider party membership.” (Prospect: 28/08/24)
This is what ALL dictators do, they stifle the opposition, both real and imagined, they slowly erode democratic processes, and they repeatedly make and break promises at will.
 Starmer has repeated said he is going to “reset” Britain 
“Starmer pledges to ‘reset’ Britain as Labour takes over after 14 years of Conservative rule”  (CNN World: 05/07/24)
If by this he means resetting Britain in his own image -  power hungry, untrustworthy, dishonest, vindictive, insecure and anti-democratic – then we might as well bring back the Tories.

I'm postcarding for GOTV in Georgia. I'm super motivated to finish that job now 📬 🗳️!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
[Image ID: A series of screenshots from a Twitter thread by Jason Coupet / professajay.
Text begins: Man voting in Georgia is so different than in Illinois. When I lived in chicago, during early voting, I went to the local elementary school, waited in line about ten minutes, and they gave me a sheet of paper. I checked people off then I put it in the machine and left.
Not Georgia. We drove downtown because *every* other polling place had a line >90 minutes. We paid ten bucks to park. We went in the building, then emptied out pockets to go through a metal detector. We then saw a sign about where to park to get our parking validated. Inside.
We then waited in line ~80 minutes. We got to the end and we were given a form to fill out (?). We were told *not* to sign it until told. Then we were moved into a waiting room where we were given a ticket number, like when you are at the dmv.
We were told to get our IDs out and wait. We waited here for 15-20 minutes. When your number is called they took your form, did some stuff on the computer, then told you to sign the form. Then you get a little green card. You insert it into the machine.
Then you go through three or four prompts, including a very serious™️ warning about perjury, a totally necessary warning given how huge a problem stolen identity is for the purposes of voting on behalf of someone else.
You then finally vote, and after an “are you sure” prompt you get a sheet. You then have to walk the sheet over to feed it into a machine. About half of these were working.
The bottleneck was clearly the weird application and waiting room thing. There are two dozen people at a time sitting to have their stuffed checked. Think of it as regular voting except when you got there they had to run a credit check for *each person* like you need financing.
It was easier finishing my PhD paperwork. Thankful for the kind people (nearly all black women) the shepherded the processes. But man if you are poor or disabled or whatever, good luck yo. That should have been easier. We finished tho. Text ends.
Image ID: Two Black people are standing beside a city street and smiling at the camera, a man and a woman. The man has close-cropped hair and a beard. He is wearing a black hoodie that says Southside and has a sticker on his chest with a peach on it. The woman has large tortoiseshell browline glasses and long twist locs. She has a light brown leather crossbody bag, and is wearing a salmon-colored windbreaker. She also has a peach sticker on her chest, which she is pointing to. Her hand has a wedding ring. End ID]

They're not even pretending to follow their constitution. The 15th, 19th, etc. Amendments specifically allow congress to pass laws to enforce these amendments. The laws include bans on last-minute voter purges, like this.
