The total lack of action from virtually all of the “2024 GOP hopefuls” is pretty amazing. They have a perfect platform to show that they’re willing & able to fight but they will cower to the media mob instead. Don’t worry @realDonaldTrump will fight & they can watch as usual!

Now-Republican state Rep. Tricia Cotham went from sharing her own abortion story in speaking out against NC's 72-hour waiting period bill in 2015 — as a Democrat — to switching parties and now voting for a bill that imposes a 12-week limit and doubles-down on the waiting period

In 2018, Taylor Swift wrote that "the systemic racism we still see in this country towards people of color is terrifying, sickening and prevalent." Now, in her strongest political statement yet, she's accused Trump of "stoking the fires of white supremacy"

Narrator: they had not, in fact, both agreed to “focus strongly” on the non-existent “very substantial voter fraud”

Likewise, the House and Senate have agreed to focus strongly on the very substantial voter fraud which took place in the November 3 Presidential election.

Laws in every single US state give officials time after Election Day to fully canvass all the ballots (including late-arriving absentees and provisionals) and then certify the results. These timelines are set by state legislatures into state law and are not illegal or suspect

Full Trump quote: "We'll see what happens at the end of the day [on Election Day]. Hopefully it won't go longer than that. Hopefully the few states remaining that want to take a lot of time after November 3rd to count ballots, that won't be allowed by the various courts."

This thread is proof that harmful election conspiracy theories are by no means limited to the right. Esp in a place like KY, people don't vote perfectly in line with their party registration, ticket-splitting is common, and there are voters who aren't registered w/ either party

Doesn't it seem odd that in Ballard County Kentucky the State Board of Elections shows 2285 registered REPUBLICAN voters as of Oct 2020 yet 3155 people voted for Mitch McConnell? Ballard County also has 3966 registered Dems but Amy McGrath only got 936 votes? And theres more...

the next time Olivia Rodrigo drives alone past your street, it could be in a different district. The 2020 Census was not so good 4 California — both LA County, where Rodrigo now lives, and Riverside County in #CA50 where she grew up, could see big shifts
