In his second term, President Trump has seldom let a day go by without repeating lies about election results or casting doubt on the U.S. voting system. Here’s a fact-check.

Musk is scared, vote 💙 and make him terrified of accountability. The ballot box is the best way to tell him to shove his 💰 up his fucking ass
This is not how American democracy should function. It’s getting worse every election, not better. I know constitutional amendments are difficult, but it seems like there should be a bipartisan supermajority of citizens who say enough with this stuff.

Trump’s mail voting restrictions would have disenfranchised thousands if the Supreme Court had allowed them. But Trump’s plan to restrict mail voting was supposed to be even more prohibitive, with the help of two election conspiracists inside the White House. More from this shocking report:

Trump says the U.S. is "losing $62 billion" to Canada. @crampell.bsky.social explains why that's not how trade deficits work and why Trump's own logic is asking Canada to cut the U.S. off from oil.

"He has nothing. It was basically, 'Please pass the SAVE Act,' which Republicans have said they're not going to pass…because there's a whole bunch of stuff in the SAVE Act that is bananas." @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social and @sonnybunch.bsky.social react to Trump's crazy speech.

The suggestion that a single fiscal measurement can determine whether a country is a good ally, or whether NATO is becoming stronger, substitutes accounting for strategy.
Of course… the GOP would rather gag on their own vomit than denounce Dear Leader
After this Iran deal fiasco, are Republicans still going to claim that the addled dementia patient in the WH is some kind of master deal maker / tough guy / brilliant strategist? I suppose when you are this far into the con most of them have to ride it out to the end.

Babies who don’t get the vitamin K shot are 81 times more likely to develop severe bleeding. In many cases, oxygen can’t reach their brains and blood pools around their skulls. Yet driven by misinformation, more parents are refusing the injection.

No surprises here… Felon 47’s DoJ doesn’t want justice for the victims of J6 crimes, it wants retribution and humiliation for anyone who has spoken truth to the imPOTUS. May infamy rain down upon the mealy-mouthed sycophants who do his bidding
NEWS: Trump is trying to shut down the January 6 lawsuits just as a judge sets a court date for James Comey in a case many believe is doomed—showing forward movement in one case and a desperate attempt to block the truth in another. He doesn’t want discovery because that’s where evidence comes out.
The most morally corrupt and repulsively racist are led by Felon 47 and deeply offended by anyone who looks, thinks or acts differently to them. The thin veneer of tolerance and acceptance has worn away. We all have a responsibility to help right the wrongs when this ‘thing’ is over
"Why would the Trump administration try to make it harder for families to care for their disabled children? Because they are disgusted by their existence. They want to go back to a world in which such people are sent away."
