Officials knew that Russian hacking compromised our elections but feared the effects of that knowledge re. Russian hacking the actual voting machines and vote counts would have on Americans’ confidence in our elections more than the actual effect on the outcome of our elections.” Imagine that.

pbs.orgAn 11-year-old changed election results on a replica Florida state website in under 10 minutesAn 11-year-old on Friday was able to hack into a replica of the Florida state election website and change voting results found there in under 10 minutes.

In 2019, investigations revealed Russian cyberactors were in a position to delete or change voter data” in voter databases. In the 2019 election, many machines were not connected to the internet and the most efficient way to alter votes was with physical access to the machines or computers.

nytimes.comRussia Targeted Election Systems in All 50 States, Report Finds (Published 2019)A Senate panel documented an effort largely undetected by state and federal officials at the time. But its report was so heavily redacted that key lessons for 2020 were blacked out.

A simple antidote to the Trump/Fox/GOP virulent “anti-woke” amplification of political hatred, xenophobia, racism, homophobia, misogyny, deliberately aimed at destroying Americans' sense of national unity, mutual tolerance and respect for all people, essential to maintaining our coherent democracy.

WE ARE AT THE BREAKING POINT… NOW is the time to prevent the total collapse of the rule of law and irreversible implosion of America's democracy and Constitutional government.

NOW is the time to stop the Trump regime from waging war on Americans and the world; from ransacking our government, institutions, agencies, natural resources, public properties, goods and services; from persecuting, incarcerating and murdering innocent people.

Checks and balances, oaths to defend the Constitution & the rule of law have proved to be a crumbling facade-behind which the rot of the Trump regime’s corruption, lies, greed, treason & violence run deep & wide across the administration, Congress, media, judiciary, law enforcement & military.

WE ARE AT THE BREAKING POINT… NOW is the time for all civilian, political and military leaders who have sworn an oath to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic," to stop the Trump regime’s violations of the U.S. Constitution.

Why are Democrats not stopping the sheer insanity of Republicans' lies, cheating & bizarre behavior? Why are Democrats not raising holy hell? Schumer & Jeffries’ “leadership” has proven to be utterly impotent & inept in the face of the Trump regime’s hostile takeover of our country and democracy.

I visited Tom Suozzi’s "mobile office" today to return his sign and deliver my letter. Tom's staff member covered his face, saying he did not want to be in any picture where anyone was doing something "wrong." I assured him we were doing everything "right," handed him the sign and letter and left.

Who wants to go to Tom Suozzi’s mobile office tomorrow to hand back his lawn signs and protest his shameless, faux-patriotic, divisive, self-serving MAGA-pandering?

This criminally corrupt pedophile, traitor, convicted felon and rapist, Trump, has brought nothing but lies, greed, corruption, hatred, cruelty, ugliness and misery to our country and world. Trump and all who aid and abet him must be arrested for crimes against humanity.

Every State Should do this…. “Michigan is now SUING the big oil 'cartel' for artificially driving up energy prices and colluding to suppress renewable energy and electric vehicles. GOOD.”

AMERICA’S POWER = AMERICA'S BLACK/ BROWN/ WHITE POWER = AMERICA’S PROMISE OF LIFE, LIBERTY, EQUALITY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS FOR ALL UNDER GOVERNMENT OF, BY AND FOR ALL!

We must immediately establish shadow governments in Washington DC and in all GOP-run state capitols to meticulously witness and document every instance of lawlessness and corruption, and for each instance propose the alternative lawful conduct in accordance with American Constitutional government.

Republicans just passed legislation in the middle of the night whilst everyone was sleeping that lays the path to fund ICE-Gestapo and CBP through reconciliation process without support from Democrats. Pure fascism and an absolutely horrendous abuse of power.

Doug Ford canceled Ontario’s Starlink contract with Elon Musk and banned all US companies from provincial contracts in response to Trump’s tariffs on Canada. “It’s done, it’s gone,” Ford said. “We won’t award contracts to people who enable economic attacks on our province and country.”

Trump's Gestapo-like ICE henchman are violating the U.S. Constitution and rule of law to deprive people of their lives, human and civil rights. Trump and Republicans deliberately sabotaged a bipartisan border bill to help secure the border, so they could blame Democrats for not securing the border.

Trump/ Republicans blocked Biden’s $20.2 billion bipartisan border bill to fund 1,500 more border agents, 100 cutting-edge tech to stop illegal fentanyl, 100 additional immigration judges, 4,300 more officers with authority to shut the border when it is overwhelmed.  www.npr.org/2024/02/06/1...
