Liz Cheney
Liz Cheney@Liz_Cheney·
Let’s be clear: This is illegal and unconstitutional. The American people had voted. The courts had ruled. The Electoral College had met and voted. The Governor in every state had certified the results and sent a legal slate of electors to the Congress to be counted. The Vice President has no constitutional authority to tell states to submit alternative slates of electors because his candidate lost. That is tyranny. Our institutions held on Jan 6 because Mike Pence refused to violate his oath to the Constitution. Trump picked JD Vance because Vance will do whatever Trump wants, including violating the Constitution. They are both far too dangerous to serve. It’s our duty to stop them.

Q. Would you have certified the 2020 election? JD Vance: No. “I would have asked the states to submit alternative slates of electors and ask the country to have a debate” Disqualifying

Canadian here. We don’t have prayer in schools, or the Ten Commandments, or God. We also don’t have dead kids. No Canadian child has ever died in a mass shooting in an elementary school. We have guns. What we don’t have is Republicans. American has to get rid of Republicans.
Ron Filipkowski@RonFilipkowski

Mike Collins, who represents the district where the school shooting happened yesterday, says “it’s not the right time to talk about” gun control, and that the solution is: “We’ve got to get back to God in this country.” Story. meidasnews.com/news/rep-colli…

Anthony Scaramucci
Anthony Scaramucci@Scaramucci·
Trump just announced a “crime and safety” rally for next Tuesday in Howell, Michigan, a town that has been heavily associated with the KKK for decades. Indeed, just late last month White Supremacists marched in the town chanting “We love Hitler. We love Trump.” Some but not all of the reputation comes from the fact that a long time Grand Drago of the Michigan Klan lived there and his farm was a sort of home base for the Klan.   This is the kind of move that will be lost on many reporters and especially most out-of-state reporters. But it won’t be lost for a moment on Blacks and Jews from Michigan. It’s a bullhorn not a dog whistle. We will work hard to defeat him. We are better than this.

Donald Trump may be crazy, but he's not stupid. When he claims that “nobody” showed up at a 10,000 person Harris rally in MI that was live-streamed & widely covered by the media, that it was all AI, he is laying the groundwork for rejecting the election results if he loses.

These are not conspiratorial rantings from the deepest recesses of the internet. The author could have the nuclear codes and be responsible for decisions that will affect us all for decades.

Unlike your adopted country we all agreed that a man entering a primary school and murdering 17 people with a handgun should never, ever be allowed to happen again. You utter prick.

We believe in a future where every person has the opportunity not just to get by, but to get ahead. Where every senior can retire with dignity. But Donald Trump wants to take our country backward. We are not going back.

Auschwitz Memorial
Auschwitz Memorial@AuschwitzMuseum·
Such a Holocaust-denying, antisemitic, vile comment did not violate the regulations of @X. Holocaust denial is a dangerous carrier of antisemitism and hatred. Deniers not only spread hate; by distorting and rejecting facts, they also insult the memory of the victims. Allowing such content not only spreads harmful misinformation but also disrespects the memory of the victims and enables the growth of hatred on this platform. By actively moderating Holocaust denial content, the platform could stand up for what is fair and right, uphold its commitment to truth and respect, prevent harm, and contribute to a safer online environment for all users.
