I just want to name that people overcame this. Even against a stacked deck, the good fight is worth it. Win or lose, it's worth it. And sometimes the good guys win.

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

A stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, whose government cultivated close ties with Donald Trump and his family, has conceded defeat to a student-led opposition movement in a historic parliamentary election.

Jack Smith named Jeffrey Clark a co-conspirator bc he told Trump if Trump made him AG he would knowingly commit crimes to try to steal GA. John Roberts told Smith he couldn't do that. So now Blanche is doing the very same thing Clark did. Offer to use DOJ to steal an election.

From John R. O’Donnell’s “Trumped! The Inside Story of the Real Donald Trump – His Cunning Rise and Spectacular Fall” (1991). O’Donnell was an executive at an Atlantic City casino acquired by Trump, and worked for him for several years, making a quarter-million/year. On the next page he resigns.

Trump: "In Washington, all the restaurants were closing. People were being held up. They'd walk into a restaurant. Like Jesse James. 'Stand up! Give us all your money.' They're eating dinner at a fancy restaurant. All the restaurants were closing."

Barack Obama doesn't need to lie about an uncle inventing radar to make us think he comes from a more intelligent family than Donald Trump's. He just needs to open his mouth and speak a complete sentence.

Muslims didn’t storm the Capitol on January 6, try to steal an election, or overthrow our government. White Christian nationalists, racist militia groups, and rabid Trump supporters did. We need to stop pretending the biggest terrorist threat to this country is coming from somewhere else.
