Donald Trump Tried to Steal My Vote

And unless you’re in a state like Michigan, I think it can be very difficult to see how the last six years of the Big Lie and Trump’s kingly ambitions have withered any shreds of democratic muscle memory left in our two-party system.

💪🏼Marc Elias on officials who plan to refuse election certification:

"If you're a Republican county official, do your job. If you're not prepared to do your job, to administer fair elections, to certify accurate results, now is the time to resign. Get out of office... But if you stay in this job, and you don't do your job, you're gonna get sued. And you're gonna lose. And you're gonna go down in history as one of the villains."

I keep thinking about Sonya Massey and Thomas Matthew Crooks.

A white cop saw an armed white assassin about to shoot Trump and ran away.

Another white cop saw an unarmed Black woman in need in her own home and shot her in the face 3 times.

Why are white cops more afraid of Black women than armed white men? If they can think split second to run away from an armed white man, why can't they think split second to NOT kill an unarmed Black woman? This horrific injustice is unsustainable.

“They almost annihilated us, and that genocide continues. To destroy the environment you have to destroy the people who protect it.”
