Can’t win without cheating….and cheating is the only successful policy the GOP has.

Don’t worry. Americans will sit back and let it happen. Because it’s too much effort to vote or peaceful protest.

This feels like it might be an important point in history books in the future… assuming there are any.

I’ve of the key functions of the FEC:
Testing and Certifying Voting Equipment: The EAC accredits independent laboratories to test voting systems against strict federal requirements. It formally certifies that voting machines and systems meet these technical guidelines before they are utilized in local precincts.

The majority of white voters across all three elections: ‚This is exactly what we voted for. Brace yourselves because there are two plus more years of this, and we are just getting started.‘
Among those who voted, the majority of white men and white women voted for a racist, fascist, sexist, war-mongering kid rapist and kid killer in *2016, 2020, and 2024.*

He’s running out of options to compromise the elections in November. He keeps bringing up communism lately….I guess maybe that’s where he is going with this. He’s got to have some way to blame it so he can take over.
