I cannot emphasize enough that people need to read. Anything and everything. Read shit you don't understand, read about points you don't agree with, read someone's praise AND criticism of something you love. You cannot stop learning. You cannot get lazy or complacent. Don't let them dumb you down.
Sending ICE Agents to intimidate voters at polling places, declaring martial law to try to delay or cancel the election, seizing ballots-As he gets more desperate, there's nothing he won't do to try to save his pathetic orange ass. ALL states should preemptively prepare to defend Democracy! 🇺🇸 ✊

Trump says an election was stolen—but if there's an election that deserves scrutiny, it's 2024, not 2020. And the focus, according to this view, isn't China… It's Elon Musk. Every. Accusation. Is. A. Confession. 😎✨
I will not be listening to opinions on gender and biology from those who think women originated from a rib cage…

This is how to speak to every single one of those sycophants.
Personally I think the guy who was convicted on 34 counts of fraud, and was charged with obstructing justice and making false statements, is not a trustworthy source on election fraud
What I'll be watching tonight instead of listening to the never ending lies from the WH about "rigged" elections:
Trump will present his bogus conspiracy theories about voter fraud and the 2020 election once again tonight. The only reason he's doing so is to lay the groundwork for his midterm voter suppression scheme. Be warned.

People don't want masked thugs terrorizing their neighbors. They don't want warehouses being turned into detention centers. They don't want billions of taxpayer dollars spent on a rogue police state. They want healthcare. They want affordable homes. They want their basic needs met.
