If Harris wins tomorrow night - or if Harris even appears *likely* to win key states - you will see @elonmusk and the MAGA crowd go full disinformation immediately. They will claim the election is being stolen. It will be coordinated and immediate. Realize this is coming.

Elon Musk spent $44 billion dollars to turn Twitter into a right wing echo hellscape. So far he’s spent $77 million dollars on Trump’s campaign. He doesn’t feed the hungry, he doesn’t house the homeless. He’s trying to turn America into a fascist oligarchy. He is a villain.

This is a flat out lie. We’re working with all partners around the clock to get help to people. Trump’s lies and conspiracy theories have hurt the morale of first responders and people who lost everything, helped scam artists and put government and rescue workers in danger. - RC

Imagine having so much money you could make life demonstrably better for every living person on earth and deciding to spend it on being a huge fucking loser instead

Maybe we’re just old-fashioned but some of us are a bit funny about all the lies, raping, and treason.
I will never in my life understand why people hate this man.

Former RNC Chair: I don't care where you are on policy. If you cannot answer whether Trump lost the 2020 election, you are unfit for office

“He peacefully gave over power"
Vance: “It's really rich... to say that Donald Trump is a unique threat to democracy when he peacefully gave over power” (Trump stoked a violent mob that attacked the Capitol and nearly 140 police officers were injured)

At the height of One Million Checkboxes's popularity I thought I'd been hacked. A few hours later I was tearing up, extraordinarily proud of some brilliant teens. A thread about my favorite story from running OMCB....
I made a website. it's called "one million checkboxes dot com". it has one million checkboxes on it. checking a box checks it for everyone. that's it. have fun!

Walz on Vance: I can’t wait to debate the guy. That is, if he’s willing to get off his couch and show up.

The Nazis rose to power legally. Every mechanism they used to take complete control was within the laws of the Weimar Republic. Once they got total power they didn’t give it up until millions were dead at their hands and parts of Germany were flattened.
March 1933 The Enabling Act becomes law in Germany, giving the chief executive power enforce his own laws without checks and balances. The passing of the Act marked the formal transition from democratic republic to totalitarian dictatorship. 6 months later, it was a 1 party state
