That is currently Russia's overarching goal with other places, according to American intelligence. The goal is to thrust enough distrust in the voting system to destroy democracy as we know it. There needs to be a full, complete, hard line in the stand here from all Americans, if we're going to survive this.
Couldn't agree more. It's basic region destabilization, which we've used extensively in sabre rattling abroad, just disappointed it's working so effectively here.
Holy shit I can't believe the liberals and their fucking Hilary 2016 talking points are still here. Not everything is Russia, in fact most things are not Russia. when people on the internet call you a fucking idiot, for your brain dead takes it's not Russians doing that.
Also "america" shouldn't "survive" this at all. America is trash, and american democracy isn't worth saving.
I mean, it's China's too - as well as Saudi Arabia, and others. But Russia seems to be the most effective at it. Hell, for that matter, US intelligence does it abroad too. All first-world nations probably participate in this kind of destabilization tactic to some degree.
Why do you think the Great Firewall of China exists? Same reason -- we were filling their heads with anti-communist propaganda and that's the only way China deemed was possible to keep us out.
Well it's certainly not Russians downvoting you through the basement. Its "people on the internet calling you a fucking idiot for your brain dead takes"
@ArtVandelay@ProdigiousWumpus Jerri Ryan, she's packing heat, big gun nut. Also her messy divorce cleared the way for Barack Obama's 1st US Senate election.
Moderates don't want the shit job, when there's a daycare pen full of toddlers ready to cry and whine about making compromises, in fucking Congress of all places.
Freedom caucus fuckheads won't get enough votes from moderates.
I can't wait until they accidentally vote in Jeffries.
WASHINGTON — Of the nine Republicans running for House speaker, seven voted to overturn the 2020 presidential election results that made Joe Biden president.
After Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, took himself out of the running last week, when it became clear that he wouldn't get enough votes for the top job, nine men have lined up to see if they can pull the sword from the stone.
The fact that so many of them backed Donald Trump's theory of a faulty 2020 election — even after a mob of his supporters stormed the Capitol — isn't entirely surprising, since it was a common position among GOP leadership.
Speaker candidates Jack Bergman, of Michigan; Byron Donalds, of Florida; Kevin Hern, of Oklahoma; Mike Johnson, of Louisiana; Gary Palmer, of Alabama; and Pete Sessions, of Texas, all objected to certifying the 2020 election results in Arizona and Pennsylvania.
But it's still not clear if he'll be able to get the 217 votes needed to win because many of Trump's allies oppose him — in part because he was one of the few senior House leaders willing to certify the election for Biden.
Rep. Ken Buck, R-Colo., one of the far-right members who voted to oust McCarthy, recently told MSNBC that it's important to him that the next speaker be willing to "unequivocally and publicly state that the 2020 presidential election was not stolen."
