Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
Our voices didn't matter. It didn't matter how we voted.
My suspicion is that she feels that way because she lost. A wild guess, but I think she's so selfish that she can't imagine other people's voice/desires mattering as much as her own personal wishes; their votes shouldn't count like her's does.
As someone who voted for Al Gore and Hillary Clinton, I know how she feels.
Fair. But I think the reason behind that feeling is different between the two of you. One is internal, the other is systemic. Though I guess if you were to ask her, she'd say the same thing in reverse.
She can say whatever she wants, but she's a god damn idiot, and no one smashed any windows at the capital when the voice of the people was actually ignored.
I realize I sound somewhat hostile, and it's not directed at you. People like her just really piss me off.
"They..they..they..found ballots.."
And that's when I stopped watching.
That was enough crazy stupid for me.
Yeah, what kind of reporter/interviewer doesn't immediately follow up with:
Who is "They?"
Where did "they" find these ballots?
Whose ballots were they? Surely they have names on them??
After "they" found them, what did "they" do with them? Surely they would parade this proof around on the news circuits or put them on display somewhere since it's supposedly a corner stone of their narrative?
No?
Interesting. End of interview. Stop giving these jerkoff whackjobs a platform.
Ballots don't have names on them. Otherwise, yeah, all questions that should have been asked.
Ballots don't have names on them? How the fuck do they verify that it's 1 vote per person then? Mail-in ballots sure as fuck have names on them.
Mail-ins have a name on the outside of the envelope, not on the ballot itself. In person, I believe the standard practice is to check-in in some way, providing a record that this specific person voted, but not their specific choices. The specifics will vary by state, but that's the gist.
Last time I voted in texas I walked in to the local library. Was greeted asking for id, dont know what was typed into the computer, was handed a paper with a number on it, went to booth and put number in, voted, and then collected my I voted sticker and left. I would imagine they connected my name to the number and have a database of everyone.
The number is connected to the ballot, but not your name. It's a system to verify the registrar issued the ballot, not to track individual votes.
That makes sense
They have a list of people that are registered to vote. They mark off the people on the list who have voted so they can't vote twice. But when the person actually votes it's done outside the sight of anyone else (sometimes behind a curtain) so no one knows who they voted for.
There was a time when there were gangs outside of polling stations that would beat the shit out of people that didn't vote how they wanted. And considering how insane the MAGAs are, it's not too improbable this kind of thing could happen again if it weren't for having a secret ballot system.
I'm not trying to be judgemental but I am curious have you never voted in person in the US?
Actually better question which country do you live in?
I don't answer identifying questions.
Then you'll just need to go with what others have responded with.
Zero proof of anything and zero reason to doubt anything, yet both women they talked to know in their hearts that the election will be stolen (again in their minds).
The biggest point all those election deniers ignore is that almost the only Republican with any chance of winning who didn't win that election was Trump. Why would Democrats not steal the election from goddamn Mitch "The Turtle" McConnell? Why would they they "allow" Republicans to gain 12 seats in the house?
sorry, but you just used a bunch of critical thinking that trump supporters don't seem to have... lol
Critical thinking leads to critical overload which in turn leads to critical failure to compile
I would like to see where onion girl is.
God I still laugh at that. Thought I wore it out, but now it's funny again.
Thats a stupid!!!
Sorry, when I saw the name I couldn't resist.
That woman is mentally ill, and her husband is a spineless enabler. How sad and depressing.
I couldn’t finish. That lady is disturbing.
Hell of a video — too bad that it took Canadian media to make it! If anyone had any lingering doubts about MAGA being a cult, this will confirm it.
She says Jan 6 was about "love" directly in the face of a woman whose life she previously threatened on that day. But she has to say it, because that's what the cult told her last.
"Nothing done wrong at all," Trump said.
"There were no guns down there. We didn’t have guns. The others had guns, but we didn’t have guns.
"And when I say we, these are people that walked down - this was a tiny percentage of the overall which nobody sees and nobody, nobody shows. But that was a day of love."
These individuals need deprogrammers, not debate.
"The others" had guns? As in, the Capitol Police, Secret Service, and other security services who were desperately trying to stop the mob? Because I'm not aware of any "others" that were there that day.
Ooof, that racist "slip" and the quick attempt to cover it. Minutes 4:38-4:46
Look at all the ... illegals comin' in here. Takin' over our ... white job-uh, black jobs, Hispanic jobs...
