It was a top down effort by the Trump campaign to hack America's election. The 'Big Rig' was being orchestrated by Trump.

They must never hold power again. They must be held accountable for their crimes.

Georgia prosecutors have messages showing Trump’s team is behind voting system breach.

" #Conservative Case Emerges to Disqualify #Trump for Role on Jan. 6 - Two law professors active in the #Federalist Society wrote that the original meaning of the 14th Amendment makes Donald Trump ineligible to hold government office.

Two prominent conservative law professors have concluded that Donald J. Trump is ineligible to be president under a provision of the Constitution that bars people who have engaged in an insurrection from holding government office. The professors are active members of the Federalist Society, the conservative legal group, and proponents of originalism, the method of interpretation that seeks to determine the Constitution’s original meaning. The professors — William Baude of the University of Chicago and Michael Stokes Paulsen of the University of St. Thomas — studied the question for more than a year and detailed their findings in a long article to be published next year in The University of Pennsylvania Law Review.

There’s a Simple Solution to the So-called “Spoiler” Problem, But Don’t Expect the Democrats to Solve It

"As soon as Cornel West announced that he is entering the 2024 presidential race as a Green Party candidate, it was only a matter of time before the inevitable calls of “spoiler” began coming from all the usual suspects. Establishment Democrats, naturally, have been at the forefront of this predictable scaremongering...

"This whole narrative, of course, is based on several assumptions that make superficial sense but, upon closer inspection, are at best dubious. First of all, it assumes that those who vote for the Green candidate would have voted for the Democratic candidate had the former not been on the ballot....

"But all of this is not the point. Because there is a simple solution to resolve this issue and eliminate the spoiler effect entirely, which the Democrats have seemingly never mentioned, let alone tried to enact. The solution is to abolish the electoral college and move toward a ranked-choice popular vote...

"... the Democrats would be better off actually doing something to solve the spoiler problem... Of course, we shouldn’t hold our breath. The Democrats do not, nor have ever, cared about genuine democratic reform or, indeed, anything other than their own partisan self-interest and the maintenance of their party’s stream of corporate and billionaire campaign contributions..."

I was blocked by someone just for posting this because they don't like David Sirota.

Whatevah man, but he didn't make the the polls. LOL

The inability of #Murica 'Red' and 'Blue' communicating with basic analysis has infected Mastodon, as well.

Furthermore, any one who implies that I must be pro-Trump for posting such stats can go Foff.

Get used to the fact that Biden is a weak candidate – we will learn this deeply in the months to come, sadly.

Write your state legislators and your governor and ask that they enact legislation that prevents a person who is serving a sentence for a felony conviction from receiving your state's electoral votes and gives those votes to their opponent. #EspionageAct #StatePolitics #USElections #CorrectionalPhilosophy

I keep reading that "A person in prison for a felony can be elected and serve as POTUS." I feel like someone convicted of a federal felony, particular under statutes like the Espionage act ought to be disqualified from being elected (1) and (2) Not be eligible to serve as POTUS. #USElections #StatesRights #ElectoralCollege

Good news! Minnesota just joined the #NPVIC (National Popular Vote Interstate Compact) which aims to bypass the outdated #ElectoralCollege system in the U.S. and ensure that the winner of POTUS elections is the candidate that gets majority of the nationwide popular vote instead of electoral votes. Minnesota is now in a group with 15 other states and D.C. all contributing 205, or ~76%, of the 270 votes needed for the compact to take effect.

If I can't help by way of monetary donations, how can I help Democratic candidates with their campaigns?

I am not 100% on board with everything Democrats want to do, or all the ways they want to do it, but for the issues that are most important to me, there is no question that I will be voting Democrat for the foreseeable future. But I really can't afford monetary donations.
