(9,049 posts)audits!! Across the board audits!! The republicans showed us how to scream for audits until every state does them. We need to call for court rulings for any state that says they won't do an audit.
AUDIT ALL TRUMP-WON STATES NOW!!!!
I'm in North Carolina. All the major races at the top of our ticket (governor, Lt. governor, Atty General, Secy of State) were handily won by democrats. Trump won the presidency in our state. So let me get this straight:
Everyone showed up to vote for democrats EXCEPT FOR TRUMP????
BULLSHIT!!!!
I want serious serious forensic audits in all the swing states.

(56,530 posts)I assume there are some in govt who know exactly how it was done.
And we know who the guilty parties are.
As per usual, nothing will be done about it.
There is nothing that can be done.
There are no guardrails to prevent a psychopath group from taking power in the US.
We are no longer a democracy and many Americans will slowly realize what that means.

(9,049 posts)We need forensic audits, and the spooks in government know exactly where to start. We need to give them permission!!! Millions of us need to give them permission. We need to DEMAND that they look into it, and they will have cover.

(56,530 posts)And it proves the crime we know occurred and points to guilty parties?
We already know that the Russians interfered with the 2016 election and nothing happened.
We know the Russians and Chinese interfered in this election.
If we could prove it, what would happen?
Who would take action?
The Dems have no power right now.
The US Courts will never bring the guilty parties to justice.
The guilty parties will soon be in charge of everything.
And no one is going to go after Russia and China for flipping our election.
No one.
Many Americans are fine if Putin stole the election.
They would rather be red than Dems. They have t-shirts saying this.
I would like a crime scene analysis as well, just to know the truth.
I know nothing will ever be done about it.
But I seriously doubt the truth will be disseminated.
We are still waiting for the Mueller investigation.
And other information from all of the GOP crimes.
Trump's theft of top secret docs.
The truth about the GOP funders and planners of J6.
I could go on and on.
It is never going to happen.

(7,334 posts)We are STILL a Democracy.
The Founders built well. The foundation of our Constitution will not crack immediately. 250 years will not go down the toilet without a fight.
WE THE PEOPLE have some time as long as we RESIST.
The States are strong - if Blue we need to keep them Blue. If Red we need to make them purple. See Montana. We gained 9 state house seats in a very Red state. It CAN be done.
It is not going to be easy, and it will be messy. Perhaps even a bit of blood. But true Freedom requires sacrifice.
Ask Ukraine. Against all odds their people are still fighting 4 years after they were written off.
The fight has just begun. Hope You can see your way to joining it.

(56,530 posts)I come from a large US military family.
Lives were risked and lost to defend democracy.
Bodies are still lost in far off forgotten places, never to be brought home to us.
I have fought the good fight for democracy, freedom and human rights since childhood.
And so has my family.
I have also lived in and visited occupied and fascist countries.
Americans are extremely naive and quite spoiled.
They are still in shock and denial.
As long as I live I will fight the good fight and rail against evil.
That is my core.
To say otherwise, I consider a serious insult to me and my family.
I am not so stupid as to deny what has just happened to my beloved country.
And my way of fighting is speaking the truth as much as I can.
The first step in fighting is facing reality and knowing your enemy.
I will not back down or shut up.
No matter how many lectures I get.
Or how much pablum gets shoved down my throat.

(7,334 posts)You say above you are a fighter.
But in recent your posts you sound like you have given up.
Apologies as I did not mean to attack YOU, just give you (and others who are in total despair) a lifeline.

(30,771 posts)has anything she's said so far been anything but true?
Yes, I want to see more fight and stamina in Democrats,
but it has never been there before this, and so far, has
shown no sign yet of being there again.
I would like to see millions of Democrats standing up to
this unfair election and not backing down, but I just don't
see any sign of that happening so far.
That's why I think our collective psyche is basically fascist;
and why I think humanity now has a collective death wish.

Nc has always been one of those suspicious states. If we got everything else but we didn't get the presidency, to me it's highly suspect. I'm not statistician but that should raise eyebrows. I think there are a few other states like yours, that are suspect. Wisconsin, Texas, Kentucky , Pennsylvania and Florida. With Pennsylvania, they didn't update a few voting machines and for some dumb ass reason they connect to the Internet. 🤦

(73,037 posts)n 75 days, they will be sitting ducks! Don't think for one minute that mayor Eric Adams will block Trump's storm troopers when he could suck up to him and get a pardon.
