Anyone else have an issue with Dominion Voting Systems establishing its servers via Scytl in Frankfurt, Germany while selling its intellectual property to a Chinese bank in Toronto? @POTUS @LLinWood

Why are there so many Chinese and Canadian moving and unseen parts to a U.S. national election featuring a vote to determine the president?

Speaking of banking in Toronto, don’t forget about Toronto Dominion Bank. Who is Frank Giustra.

Recall how HSBC was funding Bill Clinton’s speeches? Again – modus operandi!

All of this ties into Uranium One because that’s where the aforementioned people and entities vector.

Irish folks, this problem isn't just "over there" - w/ the 45% of Republican voters who were OK with this, a president and elected reps who called for it, police who facilitated it and media who are busy spinning it.

The far right is here too.

There are lots votes in Ireland for anti-Traveller candidates, airtime and column inches for far-right and fundamentalist pundits (and Steve Bannon), Guards who treat black and left protestors v differently to the far right. And Trump fans.

Many of the worst Republicans (and many of the cops) in the States are Irish. And US right-wing money pours into our own Youtube etc. grifters and anti-abortion fundis.

And Co. Clare holds a particular place in Trump's heart (and US military transport).

We are this.

Most importantly: here as there, anti-racists and anti-fascists have spent years telling you: these ppl are dangerous.

They have convictions for violence, they work w/ loyalists, UK and Euro fascists, they assault ppl and call for violence.

But you don't listen.

"Both sides" are a problem seemingly. Protesting fascists is as bad as being a fascist. The marketplace of ideas will solve all this. The Guards are impartial and there are bound to be reasons for ... whatever.

Anything rather than listen to ppl who actually know about it.

Can we do a confessional? During the insurrection/riot/seige, I was apprehensive about the narrative taking hold that the police officers just kinda welcomed these shitbags into the Capitol. It seemed to reflect some of what I saw, but also not all of what I saw.

But then I made a joke about it, despite the fact that we were in the middle of knowing what happened and I knew I was, of course, getting a very select view of what was happening. I did this for two reasons:

First, because it is absolutely true that the situation would have been very different if those people hadn’t been white. That’s just the case. I knew that then, I know that now. It makes me very angry.

Second, because it felt like everyone else was doing it. And this is the thing, you only see what people are saying on here, you don’t see what people aren’t saying. I thought, “even though I don’t really know what’s going on, I’m not gonna get any hate for this.” Which was true.

And maybe third, because I thought the joke was funny. But, and please let’s all agree to this, just because a joke is funny doesn’t mean it should be tweeted.

The Grifter - In 9 Tweets

1)

Frontpage lawsuit by a Jane Doe in April 2016 against Candidate Trump, during the run-up to the Presidential

2)

After the headlines did their damage, the case was suddenly

3)

Politico confirmed in #2 above that the Jane Doe lawsuit in April 2016 ahead of the 2016 Presidential Election, was in fact Virginia Giuffre

4)

Yet in 2016 Giuffre sued the President anyway, nearly costing him the election. Certainly impacting it.

5)

Giuffre started trying to take/shake down President Trump in 2016, went quiet for 4 years, and now she's back again in 2020?

Why 4 years of silence then strike again now?

Stole this from a friend but I think it really captures my feelings towards people I know still pushing for Trump:

Just for clarity, as some people still don’t get why people unfriend them over what they see as politics.

It is completely possible to reconcile political differences over tax policy or how many dog catchers to have. If you can’t be civil over policy issues, then the problem is internal, not external.

That said, most of the current GOP positions are really judgements on things that have a moral, not political landscape and most of them (gay rights, BLM, immigration, etc) all involve judging the validity of someone else

(is your marriage valid? Are you equally protected? Are you ‘legal’?).

These are moral judgements that aren’t the same class as policy differences. People aren’t really listening to the calls for civility coming from the same mouths that deny their validity as people.

Many Trump supporters like him because he deregulates or lowers taxes or some other reasonable policy choice, not his polemics on social issues. I get that.

A Thread on Hidden history of Owaisi's AIMIM : What MIM doesn't want you to know
The party was founded in 1927 for providing a cultural and religious platform to the Muslims living in the principality of the Nizam of Hyderabad.

Then known just as MIM, it expanded overnight under Bahadur Yar Jung, a charismatic personality whose speeches drew the masses.

Jung died prematurely in 1944 – some claim he was poisoned – and the MIM leadership passed to Qasim Razvi, who headed the Razakars, the dreaded Muslim militia which was constituted to oppose Hyderabad’s merger with India.

The Razakars, as is well documented, triggered a wave of murderous attacks on Hindus, progressive Muslims and Communists, and engaged the Indian security forces in what is called the Police Action of 1948.

Undoubtedly, Razvi was delusional. In his book, October Coup – A Memoir of the Struggle for Hyderabad, Mohammad Hyder narrates his conversation with Razvi.

As an American citizen here's what i need to see happen today in Washington to deal with the political crisis unfolding. First, I need to hear from Christopher Wray, the head of the FBI. We need to know what the plan is -- the plan to find out how yesterday happened and how

2. everyone who participated will be discovered, investigated, prosecuted and jailed for a very long time. This crime against our nation can not go unpunished. Those seditious Americans need to face real consequences or our democracy and rule of law are a joke.

3. President elect Biden, who was perfect yesterday, needs to make a clear statement that bringing to justice the traitors who overran our Capitol yesterday will be a priority for him. Lawlessness will not stand in the Biden Administration. I want him to address the feelings of

4. black Americans this morning who once again have turned on their TV's to see two justice systems in America. And i want him to send a message to domestic terrorists in our country that they will be held to account for any attacks on government or their fellow Americans.

5. I want Democratic leaders in the House to make clear how they will hold the President accountable while he is still in office. Whether it's impeachment articles being brought to the floor or a censure motion, we all need to put every elected official on the record with a vote

Yesterday was traumatic, for so many people. Horrifying, awful trauma — to both watch the Capitol building teeming with people who wanted to besmirch it and take selfies on the Senate floor and to watch these people walk away free.

(Long thread coming.)

Yesterday was the culmination — so far — of four horrible years that have stolen away the lives of so many. And for so many others, it has stolen our feeling of safety in the world. And our brains.

If you survived a traumatic childhood, this all felt familiar from the beginning. Living through this administration has triggered millions of people. And it has felt, again, like what we learned from our childhoods did not matter.

Here are the dynamics of an abusive household — aka, our country.

Abuser. That guy is a narcissistic bully, intent on only telling the story that matters to him.

Only in an abusive family would someone who claims he won in a landslide — when the facts make it utterly clear that is not true — be allowed to continue spewing these lies.

WHEN RESISTANCE FALTERS

📌About an hour before Trump's GOP stormtroopers assaulted our Democracy Wednesday, one Mitch McConnell -- THAT Mitch McConnell -- was on the Senate floor doing what he does best: talking in code out of both sides of his dirty, ROTTEN mouth ...

📌Seems Mitch was finally ready to put a band aid on America's gaping wound -- the one he literally had everything to do with.

📌Mitch was going to push for certifying the vote of the American people. After months of inaction, Mitch the Great was saving the day.



📌But even Mitch knows, and has suppressed, that he could have removed Trump from the White House last year.

📌Even Mitch knows, but has suppressed, that he could have spared us from the absolute carnage of the past year that led to yesterday's attack on our democracy.



📌But never mind that brutal reality. On Wednesday, a defiant Mitch was willing to go as far certifying votes that were cast by REAL American patriots, who literally risked their lives to VOTE TRUMP OUT.

📌Wow! What a guy, eh???



📌There was NOTHING fucking heroic about what McConnell was doing. He was simply doing the bare minimum of what is expected of any American.

📌And that's when the real crime started ...

Buckle up. This is going to be a long one. Counting votes, knowing presidential outcomes, and general electoral fraud, a thread. 🧵

I had to post this in my class today, and since I wrote it and did the article links already, here you go.

TL;DR: it's not new, it's not illegal, it's perfectly normal, it's not fraud to count them, mail-in voting isn't prone to fraud.

First: The idea that not knowing who the winner is on election night is somehow new or different is patently, absolutely false. Obviously, prior to the advent of modern communication, people didn't know who the president was on election night.

They generally didn't know until after the electoral college met in December. They MIGHT know how their state electoral college votes were being cast, but the idea that they knew what the other states were doing is entirely wrong.

Even with the advent of modern communications, the only way presidential election results have been known on election night is if there is a clear and obvious win in the electoral college - votes still left to count (and we'll get to that) are fewer than the margin of victory

Let's go back in history. Let's visit the 1990's. Bill Clinton was President. Janet Reno AG.

When was [BIG TECH] born? What year?

Who does this remind you of?

Has anyone at the [top] been prosecuted for anything...

ever???

When did the whole black-mailing congress begin?

Press conference starting shortly calling on @DonHarmonIL to let the elected school board bill have a floor vote in the Senate like he promised. We'll live tweet it here.

Labor leaders standing with elected, parents, community orgs and teachers @AFTunion, @J1Ramann, @SigchoFor25, SEIUHC,

of @KOCOmmunity & @J4J_USA: Mayor Lightfoot who said she would be different and support an elected board wants a hybrid that she controls

Brown: The senate president @DonHarmonIL who said he would be different and would stand with labor is refusing to call a bill

Next up Bob Reiter, @chicagolabor: the appointed board just represents the mayor's office. There is no reason why this school district should be different than any other district in IL. Parents need to elect their representatives

The hardest thing to overcome is the popular notion of "that can't happen in America", even while it's been happening all of your life.

Dear friends, nothing is as it's presented, what you have accepted as reality has been a mirage.

They LIE ABOUT EVERYTHING.

“[Trump] Went Down to #Georgia”

🎵A #GARunoff Musical Thread 🧵

(with music inspired by Charlie Daniels’ classic #GA fiddle song https://t.co/VxBwqkLq4E)

(1/11) 👇

[Trump] went down to Georgia
He was lookin' for a [vote] to steal
He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind
And he was willin' to make a deal
When he came across this [woman]
[Makin' democracy] hot
And [Trump] jumped upon a hickory stump
And said,"[Girl], let me tell you what"(2)

"I guess you didn't know it, but I'm a [politician], too
And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you
Now you [make democracy good], [girl], but give the Devil his due
I'll bet [an election] of gold against your soul
'Cause I think I'm better than you"

(3/11)

The [girl] said, "My name's [Stacey], and it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet, you're gonna regret
'Cause I am the best that's ever has been

(4/11)

[Stacey], rosin up your [voters] and play your [democracy] hard
'Cause Hell's broke loose in Georgia and the Devil deals the cards
And if you win, you get this shiny [election] made of gold
But if you lose, the devil gets your soul
