POLITICAL THREAD

I suppose in the same manner that a gubernatorial candidate in Georgia is allowed to be in charge of policing his own election, and in the period running up to the election, purges voter registries of voters likely to vote for his opposition.
You mean voters that didn’t fill out the registration appropriately? Those voters? we
just gonna give a pass on rules and laws?
Because that’s entirely the same thing as a person convicted of voter fraud, for tampering with ballots, in charge of blatant voter fraud happening before our eyes.
The Dems know those votes being counted now wil be ruled against. Not because of suppression, racism or anything else other than the election council in Broward County failed at their job. There are laws in place and they either ignored them or are intentionally misplacing or creating ballots.
They are intentionally creating a hostile environment in this nation by there actions.
What better way to sell a new voting system than to let the current corrupt one expose its own filth on a massive scale... What if we let them hang themselves by looking the other way in their hour of desperation, allowing them to fully expose the depths of their means and methods of gerrymandering. And then, what if we somehow knew or could prove those actions, exposing their fraud on the people after the fact, stripping them naked... all that followed up with a new, secure voting system sold on the unprecedented corruption we'd just witnessed.
I also dig the idea that their titles, not the people attached to them, hold all their power and by removing them from those 'elected' titles via exposure and law would be far more impressionable and damning than just voting them out and waiting for them to find new ways to cheat next cycle. Catch them with their hand in the cookie jar and put their names in the paper. Buy a shiny, new lock for the pantry.
Trump's tweet about vote tampering just before the election even seems contrived... We know from repeated past behavior that he doesn't "say" anything about anything unless it's already in the bag in his favor, or it's a reaction after the fact.
Hell, man can dream, right?
But but but platinum said
Anyone with even a quarter of a brain knows what is going on in FL and likely in Arizona right now is corrupt as hell. Its goes on everywhere but there are areas in the country it runs rampant and S FL is notorious for it.
How these people are still in their positions to control the elections down there is an utter failure on law enforcement's part. They bear a lot of blame because folks should be going to prison for this stuff and yet they continue to stay in their positions and continue to rig elections.
The amount of voter fraud that goes on in this country would floor folks. Something has to be done to negate it as much as possible, but we all know there will always be ways to corrupt the system. Republicans have a hand in it, but Dems are masters at it.

This was one of my favorite moments this morning.

Trump is getting ornerier and ornerier 
That’s what they do and why liberals are cancer. They govern like idiot libs then when the shit starts washing up in their door they take their policies like a cancer to a lib free zone and ruin itI LOVE OUR GOVERNOR!

Gives me hope that he may just tell his new AG (whoever that is after this interim) to salt the earth.
Whitaker’s appointment is not unconstitutional. Under the Vacancies Reform Act (1988), "The President can select a senior 'officer or employee' of the same executive agency (DOJ in this case) if that employee served in that agency for at least 90 days during the year preceding the vacancy." Whitaker meets this standard.
He can legally hold this position for up 210 days without Senate confirmation. If he or a new AG haven't been confirmed within 210 days, a waiver can be requested for another 210 days.
Has Platinum ever been right about anything?
A case in 1844 settled the interpretation of an amendment ratified in 1868. False.
Two counties in Florida refusing to abide by election laws is totally legal. False.
An interim AG can't be named to replace Sessions. False.
These are objective, easily verifiable things. I know I've said this before, but what strikes me as the most fringy of his lunatic behavior, is he posts these lies on the internet, where every single person has the ability to prove him wrong.
He's either mentally retarded, or mentally unstable. Really no other option.

Yeah these Republicans cheat so much in the election. How many dead people voted for Abrams?
Best part of that Trump video about Obama, is how they ask the question about Michelle, and he immediately goes to "he".

I fear the only way this stops is a civil war meaning people will die, the strongest will prevail and the Constitution will prevail and things will get back to near normal.
I believe that she (Michelle Obama) in this book talks about having a miscarriage. I was thinking about how wonderful it would have been. If her mother in law would have had a miscarriage 57 years ago.
Exactly the reason Florida is in the situation they are because of all the liberals that have moved there from New York and New Jersey.I LOVE OUR GOVERNOR!
You cannot coexist with the current state of Democrats (amazing coincidence considering their history). It’s like trying to mix Communism and the Constitution. It cannot work. We do not have the same values and the only way to resolve that is to either split or fight. That’s it.
Nah, barrack would have just married some other guy.
Obviously, the scale is different. But as someone who signs other peoples' tax returns, I'm required by the IRS to have a PTIN. It's a unique identifier, and I can log into the IRS' website and see how many tax returns have been filed under my PTIN.
The IRS is about as far behind the times as you possibly can be.
Point being, why not give everyone a unique voter ID number. You vote online, and can log in to see how your vote actually registered. Totals can be public, but only each unique person can view their own vote.
Have an independent firm audit the technology, and keep a record so the election results can be audited.

I love him too and I love Texas. But as you know you have to be cautious as you invite people into your state. When I was born Florida had maybe 3 million in residents. It was about the size of Kentucky's population. Today we have well in excess of 20,000,000 that we know of. Plus we have millions in the state every day as tourists. A once conservative state is now at the verge of being a liberal state in voting. Smaller counties keep the balance in the state legislature but those areas are growing so fast that is changing too. About half of our electorate voted for a man who is running on a socialist platform. He is to the left of Bernie Sanders if you can be left of him. As more liberals flock down here it is going to be hard to overcome.I LOVE OUR GOVERNOR!
Stay strong Texas
This is how our forefathers felt. The is also the reason we have a 2nd amendment. Not to give us the right to shoot ducks but to protect us from a hostile government. Take Trump out of office and we are a hostile government. He is standing tall but he will be here for only 6 more years. We need to find someone who can carry on his mission after he exits the stage
Teacher that founded votes is a friend of a friend of Gillum's. I'm sure the media will get all over this.

This is wild. What is it even supposed to be?
How did that schlep get with her?
