26. I don't watch much news
Thu Nov 21, 2024, 02:16 AM
Nov 2024

And trying to read here is a bit crazy to be honest with so many reposts on the same thing and everything mish moshed together etc.

I doubt they are going to do anything about major things- there will be no recount, except the minor races, there will be no actions against the psycho in any of his trials. The j6 case is being closed. I expected a lot of this to happen and said it many times and I was told what a fool I was.

I think they are doing things in terms of appointing judges, perhaps investigating the nominations for the cabinet, etc. whatever else they are doing behind-the-scenes we are not privy to. I think the nominees will mostly all be appointed anyway imo. I’m not sure what the judges can really do because ultimately any important cases are going to go to the Supreme Court who will just approve of whatever psycho wants

But I haven’t really heard anyone say very much at all. They were already congratulating psycho the day after the election and B was inviting him to the White House, which made me physically ill.

As far as I’m concerned, democracy is dead here, it’s just in the end phases. I guess in time we’re going to see how bad it will get. I’m still hoping for some divine intervention of some kind. I wonder if anyone has taken any steps to protect our national & intelligence interests from psycho and crew and E.
