    So Trump is paying off Chinese mafia and using cyber computers through Steve Bannon anybody with the freedom caucus there’s nobody named Q that is Marjorie Taylor Green pretending she’s cute. She has a voice changer. Sounds crazy but it is real.

    Just like Trump is getting Vietnamese hackers to hack YouTube with some girl that does knitting and never ends on the major networks they cut the stream and show her all the time. She’s so poor she couldn’t get in trouble. So if you see her on your screen report her For interfering with MSNBC and other major news outlets. It’s cyber warfare by Republicans.

    I guess that transparency is not part of his vocabulary. I thought that the Republicans were the law and order people. If this was BLM do we believe that these folks would work so hard to protect their identity.

    Since the Democrats have not gotten rid of presidential pardons, we can see both sides are very corrupt.

    The GOP is supposed to be pro law enforcement. They had a fit when there was talk of defunding the Police. Johnson is worse than McCarthy.

    Mike Johnson is deep rooted in believing as most hard right believe thar the US is a Christian nation. Media I beg you to show these people we aew just the opposite.The First Amendment's Establishment Clause prohibits the government from establishing an official religion.
    It also prevents the government from favoring one religion over another.
    The Establishment Clause is part of the First Amendment's freedom of religion. The other part is the Free Exercise Clause.
    The Establishment Clause states: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof".

‘BONE-CHILLING’: DOJ’s threatening letters to state election officials

Published

on

By



The Constitution leaves election administration to the states—but critics say the White House is testing those limits. From DOJ warnings to election officials, FEMA funding threats to sending election monitors to Democratic strong-holds in Michigan, the Trump administration has been expanding its efforts to seize control over the American election system. Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson says “election officials are exhausted but determined.”
