      Imagine what John Boehner. Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, Fox News, Rush Limbaugh, Alex Jones, right wing hate radio, Breibart, right wing evangelicals, just imagine if President Obama, that black President had told the White House Press that there would be no audio, or video WH press briefing. Can you just imagine?

      GA SWBG.

      Was thinking of you and Dudette when I compiled these tweets — I am absolutely gobsmacked at the arrogance and stonewalling of GA center for election systems.

      Am also in disbelief that some states (like GA) decided that “NO AUDIT TRAIL” was the solution to FL’s 2000 hanging chads:

      Link to article — impressive research, lots of links (and lengthy too, not a 3 paragraph article):

    I email my senators DAILY about the AHCA and what I expect. My thoughts are personal and my passion is true. In return, I get the same form letter over and over again. No one is reading what I write. No one in his office CARES what I have to say….I called them just now because I was LIVID! Of course, you can no longer speak to a person, you must leave a message. BOY GOLLY! Did I leave a message! His ass is toast if he votes for this POS mess.

        See upthread for problems with GA election system.

        There are so many entry points for fraud in GA system, and their Center for Election Systems operates in complete secrecy with no accountability, and have done so for 15 years. 😦

    Hayes is such a hypocritical little twat!!! He’s now yelling “FIRE” when he, like the rest of his MSNBC colleagues, happily did his part to fan those damn flames of a Trumpian Presidency and GOP congressional majority - thereby enabling the very situation we’re in right now.

    The SAME DAMN Media who is now happily accommodating the Trump Administration’s bullshit obstruction of democracy with the press briefings, are now trying to pretend they’re so shocked and surprised when Trump or the GOP does outrageously inappropriate things. They can all go to HELL and take the Trump administration, the GOP & RNC with them.

    This country’s political landscape will only get better when the current media is annihilated and rebuilt from scratch to reflect the social, economic and racial/ethnic diversity of the country it professes to inform. Otherwise it’s just another feckless mouthpiece and leverage tool for the richest segment of the (mainly) white conservative/Libertarian contingent.

    heads up on another issue:

    I don’t know if some of you are noticing a pattern to attack Ms. Joy A. Reid.

    The attacks are coming from the right AND also from the scumbag hiding in the Ecuadorian embassy in London and his crazy followers.

    for those who appreciate her dedication to the issues that matter, please consider pushing back against those attacks;

    ps, I know that she is a strong woman who is not likely to be intimidated ….. but I suspect that she might appreciate a vote of confidence and thanks from us who she is trying to enlighten.

    Lawyers seeking to unseal documents related to the criminal past of a former business partner of President Donald Trump said in federal court on Monday that the documents may contain evidence that Trump committed fraud.

    The sealed documents are from a federal case against Felix Sater, who Trump reportedly tapped as a senior advisor for his real-estate business in the 2000s even after Sater’s earlier role in a Mafia-linked stock scheme became public.

    “A fellow named Donald Trump is now president and he had a business associate named [Sater.] The public needs to know the length of their relationship and the nature of the relationship and what kind of person [Sater] is,” attorney Richard Lerner said in Brooklyn federal court Monday afternoon. “By allowing this regime of secrecy to continue, it’s facilitating what may have been fraud by President Trump.”

    It was unclear from the court proceeding what acts by Trump could possibly be construed as criminal. But after court ended, Lerner told Newsweek that if Trump knowingly did real estate with a convicted felon, that could constitute financial fraud.
