This TL is so massively fucked that Democratic leadership hopes the majority of their voters will go along with a "return to normal" candidate even if that candidate is corporate and Israel owned. But it's clear that for anyone outside of the 1% and outliers to do anything more than just survive long term, we need unprecedented system reform and a decisive deviation from traditionally held policy positions. Though I don't know the exact % of Dem voters that would agree with my statement, the primaries indicate a majority would, we will not accept a return to normal aka the status quo.

Prove me wrong when I say we are in the middle of a trump slow motion coup. Democracy is about to die. 1) Republicans are cheating on behalf of trump by changing vote at the voting machines 2) AG Blanche is declaring that he could stop states from certifying state election results 3) trump has hinted numerous times that he is open to Martial law 4) At a meeting in the White House they discussed confiscating voting machines and voting ballots on the day after the election 5) DOJ is ordering 1000 agents to monitor polling places in certain democratic strongholds 6) The cowboy at the DHS suggesting sending ICE to the polling places 7) FBI director Kash is fresh back from a visit with Putin to coordinate Election Day shenanigans Now if all that doesn’t give us alarm, we are in a coma. Time to mobilize to fight is now.

This is what I want to know. If Trump and Musk are successful in rigging or otherwise circumventing the Midterms, what are Democratic lawmakers going to do about it? What's the plan? You've all known, since 11/06/24, that Musk rigged the last election for Trump and some GOP members of Congress. Yet, it wasn't contested, and none of you have said a word about it. How can we trust that you'll fight for us this time? Already, people are reporting their votes being changed from Democrat to Republican at the voting machines of several states. Are you just going to allow this coup to continue, indefinitely?
Donald Trump and House Republicans promised to lower costs. So why are Americans still paying so much for groceries, housing and healthcare? They lied.

An analysis of voter registration records reveals Republican operative Scott Presler had 3 out-of-state voters use his Pennsylvania address to vote in the 2024 election. This is a textbook example of voter fraud.

Billionaires buying elections will always be a greater threat to democracy than the 0.0001% of votes that are cast by undocumented immigrants.

Tim Scott’s great grandmother turned in Harriet Tubman
WHAT THE HELL. Tim Scott stood on a stage in South Carolina and claimed, with zero evidence, that Abdul El-Sayed's mother was "part of the funding apparatus for Osama bin Laden." Out of nowhere. About a Senate candidate in Michigan. This is insane.

There are reports from 7 States who say their voting machines are switching votes for Democrats to Republicans. In one State a singular Democrat vote is switching to 3 Republican votes. This is how Trump, the President of The United States is trying to steal the election with Elon Musk..

The election is being rigged. Dems do literally nothing in advance to warn, to get involved, to send in their own experts.
This shit is deliberately coded into the software. It's election tampering.

I’m not sure which GOP midterm messages are resonating the most with voters. Is it A) The titanic didn’t turn around in a day? B) Amy Actons mother still supports her pedophile husband and republicans should listen to her C) That candidate has a nice ass D) I might be corrupt, let a pedophile go free had numerous affairs but Talarico may not eat BBQ. Which one made you instantly go vote republican?

There is a very disturbing trend being seen in early voting. Texas, Florida, Tennessee, Ohio are reporting difficulties getting the machines to accept democratic votes. The machines change them back to Republican unless the voter persists, pressing several times to get the correct vote to go through. Check your machine, check to see that it accepted the correct vote. Make sure your voice counts.

If this is accurate, Elon lied about not having control over Starshield, and he lied about the administration making the decision. More importantly, why is a private citizen even *able* to make decisions that could hinder US military operations?
Incredible scoop by my @WSJ colleagues: Elon Musk ordered the slowdown of a military-grade version of Starlink relied on by Ukraine, a decision that sparked panic in Kyiv and confusion inside the Trump administration. wsj.com/world/ukraine-starli…

Republicans have passed just one major defining piece of legislation in the past two years. Yet, not one Republican wants to utter its name during the midterm campaigns. Why? Because it was such a failure. The bill was the "One Big Beautiful Bill". It cut over $130 billion in Medicaid funding for rural areas. Rural hospitals are struggling so much that they're shutting down. It caused millions of Americans to lose their healthcare. Medical debt and illnesses are leading causes of bankruptcy in the US. It kicked over 1 million hungry children off of food assistance. It did all of this to shift a greater burden onto the poorest Americans while giving huge tax breaks to the wealthiest. The top 1% now hold as much wealth as the bottom 90%. It is exploding the deficit. The deficit was $2 trillion this year, and the OBBB will add trillions more to the deficit in the coming years. So instead of calling it the OBBB, they're calling it the "Working Family Tax Cuts" to make it sound like a good thing. Those tax cuts for working families are small. The average tax refund increased by $350. But the average household paid $1,500 in tariffs last year. You weren't taxed less. You were taxed more. The no-tax-on-tips and overtime weren't as advertised and expire in December 2028. The corporate and billionaire tax breaks are permanent. That shows who Republicans are really working for. Why would anyone want two more years of that?

The maximum amount an individual can donate to a candidate is $3500. Elon Musk just donated $7 million to one Republican, because Citizens United gave a loophole to billionaires to buy elections. Overturn Citizens United.
NEW — Elon Musk has directed more than $7 million to help reelect Ohio Republican Sen. Jon Husted, per the Ohio Capital Journal.
