The trump regime will try every trick in their playbook to interfere in free and fair elections: threatening poll workers, changing polling locations at the last minute like in the Texas Democratic primary, slowing down the mail for absentee ballots, bomb threats like what happened in 2024 in Houston, false advertising (like what they are doing in the voting for Virginia’s redistricting referendum), dark money campaigns like what happened to Senators Sherrod Brown and Bob Casey in 2024. And their futile attempt to write the SAVE Act in to law. GOTV, voter registration, voter protection hotlines, legal professionals volunteering in certain states. Then when the results don’t go their way there will be innumerable lawsuits like what happened in 2020. Illegal tariffs followed by an unconstitutional attack on Iran have the entire global economy in a shambles. They have only themselves to blame.

Yep!! They may even use Elon Musk to manipulate the software in the voting machines as he did in 2024, if he has not done so already. Which came directly from the convicted felon's butt hole mouth. Also he emphasized that "if you vote for me, you wouldn't need to vote again". The turn around and thank Elon Musk for knowing the voting machines. Let's stay alert 💯

Right. I forgot about that plus Musk’s buying votes schemes.

It‘s astounding that people believed hime after his first term and horrific they believed him again to elect him. Is it greed? Is it envy? Is it the desire that he will give them what they want? He doesn’t care about any of them.

I do wonder in the ability to right this disaster, it is so deep, insidious and all encompassing.

Thanks Miles: Beware , all those that hung with the rebel and were loyal to him are now abandoning the sinking ship. Their loyalty is worthless. Cowards all. Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Tim Pool , Marjorie Taylor Greene and Alex Jones, The GOP house and senate members who kept their head in the sand , said nothing, did nothing to stop the destruction should never be forgotten . Vote them all out. The democrats had better not let these time slip by, quit being so polite , get loud and proud. Don't let the MAGA republicans defeat themselves, help them !

I think Tucker apologizing is Giant BS. He knew exactly what he was doing and knew trump was a giant pile of shit.

He's more concerned about keeping his viewers.

I agree with you.

"And I want to say I’m sorry for misleading people."

As my grandmother would say, what a lot of nonsense.

He's sorry that DJT overreached to the point that the house of cards is coming down before the midterms... which is pretty amazing if you come to think of it.

This "apology" is his first presidential campaign move.

PLEEEEEEZ KEEP EMAILING AND WRITING To: schumer/jeffries/martin/buttigieg/harris/newsom (and anyone else plus YOUR local-yokles)….

RECENT POLLS HAVE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AT A LOWER APPROVAL RATING THAN EVEN THE PUTIN-STYLE-FASCIST-DICTATOR-TRUMP……

And YOU say nothing and do nothing to change that perspective! There are ZERO new strategies from the democratic party on how they will run the government differently from all their prior times in the majority.

The rest of the 21st century is completely beyond the intellectual capability of 95% of dem politicians and their same-old strategists/donors/lobbyist’s……

And still….you refuse to listen to ‘we the people’ – and you ignore the polls as you live in your own little useless bubbles.

The people don’t want AIPAC and crypto, and Palantir, and all the putin-style-billionaire-oligarchs that raised up the ogre dictator trump – the complete replica of the putin ogre – to the position of running our country and our economy.

You don’t listen. You don’t care. Your blah-blah-talk-talk is nauseating. Your mouth moves but your brain is dumbed down into silence.

YOU ARE PART OF THE 95% OF DEM POLITICIANS WHO KNOW FA ABOUT DEALING WITH THE FASCISTS AND HOW THEY HAVE PERMANENTLY CHANGED OUR ECONOMY AND DEMOCRACY.

YOU ARE PART OF THE 95% OF DEM POLITICIANS WHO HAVE NO CLUE HOW TO DEAL WITH THE REST OF THE 21ST CENTURY.

YOU ARE PART OF THE 95% OF DEMS WHO REFUSE TO INTERACT MEANINGFULLY WITH ANYONE OUTSIDE OF YOUR POLITICAL BUBBLE.

A person ‘OAKTOWN’ on substack has agreed to me posting their comment, (and there are many others who feel the same)…

“The Dem leadership is clueless about strategy and the tremendous anger of voters on both the left and right against the Epstein Class. There is a coalition to be found there, but they’re still operating on old school, failed elitist policies.

Some of the worst players in that Epstein Class are busy now buying off the Dems, which Ken Martin—if he had any sense—would prohibit. One Nerd Reich puppet who has recently emerged is San Jose mayor Matt Mahan, who it is reported, is taking massive amounts of dark money from Joe Lonsdale, cofounder (with Peter Thiel) of Palantir and Musk, Google Sergey Brin, Garry Tan and an independent committee that dropped $1.5 million on a Super Bowl ad paid for by venture capitalists….. ALL THE SAME BILLIONAIRES THAT GAVE TRUMP MONEY FOR HIS INAUGURATION, HIS BALLROOM, AND ALL HIS OTHER CORRUPT WAYS OF PROVIDING FAVORS TO THE WEALTHY 1%.

I will not vote for any candidate who will either not disclose their biggest donors, including super PACs, or who admits to taking a lot of money from them. The Dems need to distinguish themselves as the party in opposition to corruption and current tax policies that permit billionaires to pay from zero to single-digit percentages of their actual wealth while wage earners pay a far greater percentage of their income.”

For 2026, there are enough independents who are totally pissed off with the putin-style-trump-dictatorship and the putin-style-billionaire-oligarchs, that their votes will enable the dems to win some new seats….BUT THEY ARE VOTING AGAINST TRUMP – NOT FOR DEMOCRATS.

Come 2028, they may well vote AGAINST DEMOCRATS AGAIN. Not that you will care because you are busy with your primary goal making money for yourself on the congressional gravytrain. THAT MEANS THERE WILL BE EVEN MORE PEOPLE LIKE ME, WHO HAVE GIVEN UP CARING ABOUT YOU AND YOUR USELESS BLAH-BLAH-TALK-TALK THAT COMPLETELY LACKS AUTHENTICITY.

(PS. When you write about all the things you have ‘supposedly done’, please remember it is your JOB to work for your constituents. However, we want representatives who will be smart enough to also work on securing our future.)

Voters are thinking:

OMG

GOP

WTF!

In some way, the most depressing thing about this post is that there are 32% of 'muricans who would vote for this crap again.

And why should they be terrified? They support an absolute idiot, prop up his insane ideas no matter how ridiculous and are sycophants. They and the entire MAGA cult need to be put on trial and suffer !

Thanks for showing this Miles.

In my Substack today: https://suzannetaylor.substack.com/p/operating-from-where-we-are

How about people like Miles Taylor and Michael Cohen, who’ve been in the room with Trump and are eloquent and passionate in opposing him, linking up with people like Steve Donziger and Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who’ve suffered from the abusiveness of this administration? An ad hoc council of people like that could call up a massive coalition, and could guide its moves for boycotts and whatever other collective action could matter.

Oh, Tucker, please spare me your mea culpa. You knew trump was a disaster the first time around. We saw those texts between you & the other mouthpieces for trump as Jan 6 was taking place. You were told to support him because FOX ratings were tanking & you lied your way into getting him propped up again! And you did it again in 2024. You thought you were lying your way to the top. Well, the jokes on you, there is only one top in this regime & that's trump so apologize all you want you're not going to clear the mud & filth off your reputation. And if things go as they should after this debacle you should lose all your I'll gotten gains & maybe even spend so time in "the clink" just because!
