@sightONsound @iamalmostlegend Denying why they did this is stupid. You do realize even with the electoral college every state had to do an actual count of every vote? Why do you think in 1792 they choose to take from the 1st Tuesday in November until the 3rd week in January to count and swear in the President

Dear @WhiteHouse: Another day, another embarrassing story about Kash Patel. But this one is pretty bad. Using taxpayer funds to fly to Olympics to drink is outrageous. But snorkeling around the USS Arizona, a hallowed site where 1,177 Americans died, is downright shameful.
Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1

BREAKING AP: When Kash Patel visited Hawaii last summer, the FBI took pains to note he was not on vacation. Left out of FBI's news releases was an exclusive excursion that Patel took days later when he participated in what government officials described as a "VIP snorkel" around the USS Arizona in an outing coordinated by the military.  apnews.com/article/fbi-ka…

Trump is negotiating to settle his lawsuit against his own IRS, and one of the remedies being floated (along with almost 2 billion dollars) is the IRS dropping all audits of Trump, his family, and his businesses. Just absolutely staggering corruption.

@M15T4J4Y @iamalmostlegend The creation of the electoral college 100% had to do with slavery. Slave states were worried they would be outvoted by northern states since slaves couldn’t vote. Today rural people shouldn’t have special privileges just because they choose to live in the woods. Rural DEI 😃

@iamalmostlegend Because people tend to coalesce around cities. The popular vote would essentially silence rural america. But morons will tell.ypu slavery. Its actually about maintaining balance between rural and metro amercian votes.

@sightONsound @iamalmostlegend Nothing worse than stupid people calling other people dumb. Slave states were worried that because only free people had the right to vote. Northern states would always choose the president because their voters outnumbered the South. Nothing to do with counting in 1792

TRUMP in Pennsylvania Sept 2024 on Chinese nationals buying US farmland: You can’t do it. We don’t want you buying our land. We don’t want you taking the land off the market… TRUMP in China 2026 on Chinese nationals buying US farmland: You want to see farm prices drop? If you want to see farmers lose a lot of money, take that out of the market.

Democrats love to play these word games while ignoring the real numbers. Under Trump (pre-COVID): gas was $2.50-$2.80 a gallon. Under Biden-Harris: it spiked to $5+ in many places because they killed American energy. Now under Trump again: prices are coming back down. Saying “that’s life” isn’t the point. The point is your policies destroyed affordability, and now you’re mad that Trump is fixing what you broke. Americans remember who made life expensive.

COLLINS: But if someone was paying $2.98 a gallon before the war, and now they're paying $4.53, saying 'that's life' might not make them feel better JIM JORDAN: Those are your words, not mine COLLINS: You said that just now. I quoted you.

I still can’t get over that Alito basically said racism was over and then conservatives agreed by deleting every black district in the south in like 2 seconds

Grocery price increase stories were days-long news cycles reinforcing the media narrative of an awful economy *caused* by Joe Biden (which was bullshit) and one and done, not-even-blaming-Trump nothing burgers now. I don't make the rules. 🙄
ABC News@ABC

Grocery prices in the U.S. soared faster in April than any month in nearly four years, driving up the cost of everything from frankfurters to tomatoes to cupcakes, according to government data. abcnews.link/xPaGhxl

Really don't know what to say at this point. Just insane levels of corruption and corruption-adjacent behavior that should be ALL CAPS media scandals with televised Congressional hearings and it's all being done in broad daylight.
Financial Times@FT

The US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York has been meeting big law firms and corporate advisers in recent weeks to promote its softer approach to white-collar crime. ft.trib.al/0IzOAEw

OUTRAGEOUS. The husband of this US citizen did literally nothing wrong. He submitted his renewal to @USCIS five months before his status was set to expire. Then the government just sat on his paperwork and did nothing, and his protections expired.
Senate Judiciary Democrats 🇺🇸@JudiciaryDems

Wife of wrongfully detained DACA recipient: We’re raising three children in Texas. He was driving to the hospital to deliver my breast milk for our baby in the NICU when a car full of ICE agents took him. Delays in renewal processing have now caused his status to lapse.

As a principled libertarian, I mostly ignore it when Trump sics the FBI on his critics, threatens broadcasting licenses, and celebrates the murders of protesters. But when a few kids at NYU criticize Jon Haidt, well, that's where I draw the line.
