If there was ever proof that @elonmusk is playing games this is it. I’m not sure someone like this can be trusted to any longer do business with our government. https://t.co/QV1iifKJ4K
So the question now occurs: can an American President plot against our democracy, even to the point of violence, as on January 6, and not suffer serious legal or other consequences?

"No, losing isn't embarrassing. What's embarrassing, that you were ever our President, you traitorous dingleberry."
Steve Scalise had the unmitigated gall to blame Speaker Pelosi for a delayed response in getting the National Guard on January 6th, even though he stood inches away from her as she called the DoD, the DOJ, and numerous states to save HIM and others.
La Opinión Op-Ed by Speaker Nancy Pelosi: Nancy Pelosi to Latino Communities: ‘This November, the strength of our families is on the ballot’
OCTOBER 12, 2022
“To lower costs for families, we enacted the American Rescue Plan: with a Child Tax Credit that helped families pay their bills and with needed relief for our small businesses. Now, our new Inflation Reduction Act is slashing health insurance premiums, prescription drug prices and energy bills. And we’re fighting to do more.
At the same time, Democrats’ Rescue Plan has powered the strongest job creation in modern times: getting money in people’s pockets, vaccines in arms, parents back to work and children back to school. We furthered this progress in our Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, putting Americans to work rebuilding our nation with environmental justice. And our new CHIPS and Science law opens the doors to good-paying careers in science, technology, engineering and mathematics: recruiting from long underserved communities across the country to build equity and a workforce reflecting America’s beautiful diversity.
Meanwhile, Democrats are focused on safer communities for all. We’re funding local police so they can take on violent crime, while improving effectiveness and accountability. This summer, the President signed a landmark new law to reduce gun crime by getting firearms out of dangerous hands – and the House passed a bill to reinstate the Assault Weapons Ban.
This is what a Democratic Congress is fighting for – and it stands in stark contrast to Republicans’ extreme, MAGA agenda.
On immigration: while Democrats stand for humane, responsible border management and comprehensive reform, Republicans are embracing anti-immigrant cruelty.
On voting rights: while Democrats are defending democracy, Republicans are seeking to silence the voices of communities of color and nullify our elections.
On health care: while Democrats are lowering costs and strengthening Medicare, Republicans want to raise seniors’ drug prices and punish women’s health freedom.
This November, the strength of our families is on the ballot – and the difference between the parties is crystal clear. Democrats are For The People. Republicans are for their own political power.”

A majority of GOP nominees deny or question the 2020 election results
Experts say their dominance in the party poses a threat to the country’s democratic principles and jeopardizes the integrity of future votes
By Amy Gardner
“A majority of Republican nominees on the ballot this November for the House, Senate and key statewide offices — 291 in all — have denied or questioned the outcome of the last presidential election, according to a Washington Post analysis.
Candidates who have challenged or refused to accept Joe Biden’s victory — 51 percent of the 569 analyzed by The Washington Post — are running in every region of the country and in nearly every state. Republican voters in two states nominated election deniers in all federal and statewide races The Post examined.”
“The four Republicans interested in serving as House Budget Committee chairman in the next Congress said in interviews that next year’s deadline to raise or suspend the debt ceiling is a point of leverage if their party can win control of the House in the November midterm elections.”
= paying the bills, monies already spent – is a point of leverage?
Henceforth none of these Republicans can pay their monthly mortgage bills, watch what happens.

Women have been through some things. When we see sexual predators, harassers, assaulters and abusers elevated to the Oval Office and the Supreme Court and many other places of high authority to impose their decisions on us, it's demeaning and infuriating. WE ARE GOING TO VOTE.
Every woman in the country will be signing their reproductive rights away, to guys on their third or fourth marriage, like Newt Gingrich, Rudy Giuliani, and Donald Trump, if we let Republicans beat us in the midterms. Please remember this and vote accordingly.

“This was planned, it was premeditated,” says Olivia Troye, who previously served as a Senior Advisor to former Vice President Mike Pence.
“The Vice President’s life was put in danger because of this insane man.”
As Election Day approached, people were so concerned that Trump would falsely claim victory before all the results were tabulated that former White House counsel Greg Jacob wrote a memo advising Vice President Pence to steer clear of those claims.
“It’s significant that Greg Jacob felt the need to put it in writing,” Troye tells Ali Velshi. “That tells me that all of them were aware of what Trump’s planning was…and they were concerned about how this was gonna play out.”
