If you think you haven't been seeing much from us lately, it’s not your imagination. The reach of our social media accounts can be dramatically smaller than the number of people who follow us. Whatever the reason, we can't assume that simply posting means that our audience will see it.

Wow, these job numbers are TERRIBLE. Many people are saying we must have an “incompetent” president who is “asleep at the wheel”

DUN DUN DUN -- Fox Business on the September jobs report: "The numbers do not look good. I'm looking at 29,000 jobs added. That is well below expectations for 90,000, and our unemployment rate jumps up to 4.2%. A significant slowdown."

Giving up the power of your vote because something nefarious might happen is obeying in advance. It makes sure your voice is silenced rather than risk that someone may attempt to silence you. If bad actors are going to try to manipulate election results, you don’t have to do their work for them.

These are the reported crimes.

The next time someone tells you that 'U.S. election results are accurate because there are audits', you can remind them that election audits were NEVER DESIGNED to detect manipulation or ensure the accuracy of an election. That is not and has never been the intended function of an election audit.

It's easy to lose track of what's a real priority and what's just noise. But when all governing decisions come downstream of elections, ensuring the accuracy of those elections becomes paramount.

This is deeply concerning. The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) has sent observers to monitor every U.S. federal election for the past two decades. Governors need to pick up the phone and find out if an invitation extended by leaders of states can fill that federal gap.

This is an absolute disaster from a national security perspective. Obviously, a lot on F-35s is classified, but a weapons-bay door and a canopy with radar-absorbing material are some of the most sensitive. Hard to describe how bad this is.

Most U.S. mail-in ballots are still counted by machines, making them vulnerable to some of the same security risks as in-person votes. That said, mail-in ballots appear to be safer from vote manipulation than in-person voting -- though “safer” does not mean “risk-free”. 🧵

Why do authoritarian countries still hold elections? 🤔 Elections serve multiple purposes, even in countries where the outcome is a foregone conclusion. Let's look at the 2026 Russian elections as an example: 1. Even sham elections can provide a government with perceived legitimacy. 🧵

Tiny Barb reposted

Have you ever asked why a candidate didn't ask for a recount? 😵 Laws for recounts vary from state to state. 😱 Deadlines can be very short. 😬 There's a taboo around recounts in the U.S., and candidates are pressured to trust without verifying. But waiting until a concern arises may be too late.
