I can’t help but shake my head at the latest claim by Donald Trump that Joan Rivers voted for him in the presidential election, despite the fact that she passed away two years before the election even took place. It’s just another absurd and baseless statement from a man who seems to be disconnected from reality. As much as I try to wrap my head around his thought process, it becomes painfully clear that he is either lying or suffering from severe cognitive decline.
The idea that dead people were somehow casting their votes for Trump is not only ludicrous but also highlights the depths to which he will sink to maintain his delusional narrative.… Continue reading
Trump, the ex-president, the self-proclaimed crusader against crime, the man who has his own laundry list of legal troubles weighing on his shoulders, has once again managed to take a situation and make it even worse. This time, his target is the city of Milwaukee. A city that, like many others, has its own set of issues, but to have Trump, a convicted criminal himself, weigh in on the matter only adds insult to injury.
The irony of a man with a laundry list of legal troubles, awaiting sentencing for multiple felonies, and facing trial for countless more, talking about crime in a city like Milwaukee is almost comical if it weren’t so concerning.… Continue reading
Any objective observer can see the blatant bias and corruption displayed by Judge Cannon in the case of Trump’s request to declare the special counsel’s appointment invalid. The fact that she is entertaining challenges to the special counsel, especially after being slapped down by the 11th Circuit previously, raises serious concerns about her ability to uphold justice objectively. It is alarming to witness a judge blatantly favoring the defendant, delaying the trial, and allowing threats against law enforcement agencies like the FBI and DOJ to go unchecked.
There is a clear pattern of behavior by Judge Cannon that indicates she is not operating within the bounds of judicial ethics.… Continue reading
The recent news of a Trump Think Tank suing to allow election officials to refuse to certify results is deeply concerning and indicative of a dangerous trend in American politics. It is clear that this move is a preemptive strike in the lead-up to the next election, laying the groundwork for potential election denial and interference. The fact that key figures involved in the legal ramifications of January 6th are now in positions of power only adds to the alarm.
What is particularly troubling is the blatant disregard for the sanctity of our democratic process. The attempt to undermine the certification process, which has traditionally been a routine and non-controversial task, is a direct assault on the foundation of our electoral system.… Continue reading
As a citizen of the United States, the news that the Kansas Supreme Court has ruled that voting is not a fundamental right hits hard. Voting is not just a simple action of checking a box on a ballot; it is the cornerstone of our democracy. It is the way we, as individuals, have a say in how our society is shaped and governed. It is the way we hold our leaders accountable and ensure that our voices are heard. To have this fundamental right questioned and potentially stripped away is a grave injustice.
The fact that some are actively trying to suppress the right to vote is deeply troubling.… Continue reading
I have been closely following the recent events surrounding the Texas Republicans’ reactions to the House Speaker win and the claims of a stolen election. What strikes me the most is the constant victim mentality and refusal to accept defeat gracefully within the party. The allegations of election theft and cries of foul play are becoming all too common amongst the GOP, especially in cases where their preferred candidate does not emerge victorious.
The idea that Dade Phelan, a fellow Republican, relied on Democrats’ votes to secure his win in the Republican runoff is being painted as a scandal, with claims that the election was stolen.… Continue reading
The recent mailer sent out to Texans by the Trump campaign has sparked outrage and accusations of voter intimidation. The message, “We will notify President Trump if you don’t vote. You can’t afford to have that on your record,” has been described by many as a serious fascist threat and a clear attempt at intimidation. It’s concerning to see this kind of tactic being used in a democratic society, where freedom of choice and expression should be upheld and respected.
The fact that individuals are feeling threatened and intimidated by this kind of messaging is a red flag in itself. The idea that not voting for a particular candidate could somehow land you on a blacklist or earn you the wrath of a political figure is not only absurd but also deeply concerning.… Continue reading
I recently came across some disturbing news that Trump supporters are now resorting to sending threatening letters to people in an attempt to get them to vote for him. The content of these letters is chilling and reeks of intimidation tactics. Threatening to report individuals to President Trump if they don’t vote is not only coercive but also illegal. The idea that someone’s voting record will be permanently tarnished and shared with a former president is downright absurd and reeks of authoritarianism.
The fact that these letters are being sent out to manipulate people into voting for a particular candidate is a clear indication of the lengths that some individuals are willing to go to in order to maintain power.… Continue reading
As an individual deeply invested in the democratic process, the recent news of an Ohio elections official stating his intent to exclude President Joe Biden from the ballot is nothing short of alarming. The notion that such a critical decision could be made, threatening the integrity of our elections, is a direct attack on the very foundation of our democracy.
It is disheartening to see partisan politics take precedence over the will of the people and the principles of fairness and transparency in our electoral system. This move reeks of political manipulation and a blatant disregard for the democratic rights of the citizens of Ohio.… Continue reading
It’s truly mind-boggling how politicians like Ted Cruz can dance around a simple question about accepting election results. The mental gymnastics they perform to avoid outright committing one way or another is both amusing and disturbing. The implications of refusing to accept election results and undermining the democratic process are chilling. It’s no wonder that Americans are growing increasingly disillusioned with the state of politics in the country.
Cruz’s behavior during the interview where he lost his cool when asked about accepting election results speaks volumes about his character. It’s evident that he is more concerned about pandering to his base and protecting his own political interests rather than upholding the principles of democracy.… Continue reading
