    Aha! An expert agrees on Crimes Against Humanity as a charge. Someone not even American made the accusation that this was harsh an inaccurate for me to say. Thank you Anand. At the very least its Negligence which should be prosecuted.

    people often confuse democracy as being civil society….the usa has been been a civil society for some time. Democracy is the status quo in constant turmoil.

    Biden won.We need Biden in office. He will work with China to save us from Russia and give millions of refugees amnesty. The Dreamers need social security numbers, so they can get the stimulus, Snap, Medicaid and Section 8 Housing. We must save the US and Mexico! 🙏❤

    It is very hard to believe that a former general of the United States has proposed insurrection. Flynn needs to be held to account. Trump and his supporters should as well. How could anyone like Trump ever come to power? Everyone and everyone who backed insurrection should be held accountable.

  14. @toonlyrics

    January 14, 2024 at 4:59 pm

    I agree with prosecuting Trump and his henchmen. However, Biden is right to say that is not the role of the President. Investigations must be independent, with no presidential pressure in any direction. They must also be transparent, so that the public learns exactly how 45 & Co. abused the power entrusted to them.

    The whole world expect you to go after these criminals that Trump has depended on in his administration. Democracy will dye and wither if you don't. Not only in America but in a few other countries as well who like to call themselves a democracy but really isn't. For heaven's sake even Russia has tried to call themselves a democracy, but they clearly aren't. Autocratic or dictatorships is what they are. Are Americans really ready for that? Even those of you that voted for Trump? I don't think they realize that another 4 years with Trump would have that as an end result.

    Yep, yep and yep.

    I'd like to see America lead the world in a positive way about how Democracy is best protected in our new Media. We went through something similar during TV commercialization. Soc Media is the first "new" media that wasn't first created/run by a Gov't backed company BEFORE the "privateers" got in.

    It's "a brave new world" folks, and our politicians got "caught napping"…

    Interesting that ES&S voting machines are not questioned by GOP and Trump Admin, and those machines were used in 3 states where the incumbent had low popularity and yet managed to get more votes than their popular Democrat opponent in Maine, Kentucky, and South Carolina. The data in Kentucky reveals the exact registered voter discrepancies that Trump lawsuits purports. Distraction, Disruption, Projection. Warrants investigation. ES&S has a dubious history of backdoor 3rd party software access. Democracy is at stake. Maybe it's too late for the election results (distraction took the eye off the ball) but derserves investigation.

    Do you people never learn. Trump and his enablers cannot be prosecuted. Any attempt to do so will simply lead to more propaganda by the radical right that the Deep state is seeking to take over this country and destroy Trump's legacy of greatness. We know he has at least 73 million supporters in this country. and those were just the numbskulls who could legally vote. And a very high percentage of those people are The heavily-armed Lunatic Fringe nutjobs in this country. We no longer live in a society in which Civil War is unthinkable.

    Why is the American democracy so screwed up that your country can’t stop trump and his relationship with Putin. New political policies need to be in place to stop this madness.

    lol
    The President needs to Declare state of national emergency and proceed accordingly with the powers of the President to get to the bottom of the voting discrepancies. Since the courts are not doing their job. Enough talk time for action

Rep. Veronica Escobar (D-TX) joins Antonia Hylton to discuss the Texas Senate race and Democratic candidate James Talarico’s absence from the campaign trail due to sickness. Melat Kiros, running for the House in Colorado’s 1st District, says should there be a blue wave, “this is our opportunity to lay that groundwork so that we can pass things like Medicare for All when we have another Democratic trifecta. We have to start leading with an actual vision.” Trump also made waves this week after calling Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed “Mohammed” after his debate with Mike Rogers. Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren joins The Weekend to discuss. Elena Schneider, National Political Reporter for The Washington Sun and Jessica Taylor, Senate and Governors Editor for The Cook Political Report, join “The Weekend” to discuss.

Trump faces rude awakening as states push back on his election schemes

Published

on

By



Even in Wyoming, the state where Donald Trump is viewed more favorably than any other state in the nation, Trump sticking his nose in their election process with Justice Department monitors is so poorly received that their Republican governor is speaking out and their attorney general is investigating. If Trump thought his election schemes would be easy to implement, he’s in for a rude awakening.
