Is it too much to ask that perhaps instead of using our tax $ for a 90,000 square foot ballroom, Trump works on the outrageous price of healthcare?

Or maybe, say, anything meaningful that actually helps the American people?

Too much to ask?

This Is The Smoking Gun.

September 2024, ES&S quietly pushed a change into its certified election software: ECO 1188. Pro V&V rubber stamped it. The EAC signed off.

Config.ini was no longer checksum verified.

This removes testing for any changes to a critical configuration file.

BOTH, but most importantly for #TXDems is as many phone calls as possible to our state Senators in #Austin asking them to NOT allow this redistricting map to PASS on Monday!!!

They can break #quorum without the financial consequences Democrats in #txlege have!!!

Tariffs are a tax on the American people. Anyone that is too willfully blind to understand this FACT, deserves to suffer under the crushing high prices of absolutely everything.
Let me simply for those in denial, or just plain ignorant :

Let’s discuss this again.
Beating a man-An American- for trying to bring food to starving children, is outlandish & criminal.
Not only should Israel & the IDF apologize, they should be held responsible for this.
If we had a real POTUS, the USA would have responded in some way.

This is my friend.

His name is Christian Smalls.

He founded the Amazon Labor union

Not as a professional activist, but as a worker who decided he’d had enough.

Recently, he was beaten and detained by the IDF

And no one in the MSM is talking about it.
