Trump landslide mandate EVAPORATES, falls BELOW 50% of the vote
Two weeks after the election, Donald Trump's supposed landslide victory has been undermined as his share of the popular vote has fallen below 50%, with the majority of voters choosing other candidates. While Trump won the Electoral College, his policies are out of step with a shifting leftward electorate, especially on issues like taxes and abortion. Harris's loss highlights opposition to continuing Biden's policies, even though voters tend to agree with her on policy issues. The key takeaway is that Trump lacks a mandate, and his agenda should face strong resistance moving forward.
Breaking news on ELECTION FRAUD 2024
There has been ongoing speculation about voter fraud in the 2024 election, but the claims so far lack concrete evidence. In 2020, similar allegations were investigated and found to be without merit, and the current claims, including a viral letter to Kamala Harris about potential software breaches, do not suggest that election results were compromised. The letter itself does not allege fraud or tampering, and the risks mentioned are hypothetical scenarios rather than concrete instances. Early vote totals were misinterpreted by both sides, but as more votes were counted, the results were consistent with reasonable expectations.
From yesterday’s show:
UFC has been taken over by the MAGA cult
A UFC event at Madison Square Garden highlighted the league's alignment with MAGA culture, featuring Donald Trump making a dramatic entrance, being given a championship belt from fighter Jon Jones, and palling around with figures like Dana White and Joe Rogan. This reflects a broader trend of non-political spaces, like sports and fitness, becoming coded with right-wing messaging. Critics note the hypocrisy of conservatives who once demanded politics stay out of sports but now embrace overtly political displays aligned with their views. The event also sparked debate over whether UFC’s culture inherently appeals to right-wing audiences or if the shift is driving away fans with different beliefs.
From yesterday’s show:
What happens when MAGA armies INVADE blue states?
Stephen Miller’s proposed deportation plan under Donald Trump envisions red-state National Guard troops entering blue states to enforce immigration laws without consent from local governors. This approach would likely violate the Posse Comitatus Act and face immediate legal challenges, creating widespread chaos and potential violence. Historical parallels, such as the Kent State shootings and desegregation efforts in the 1960s, show the dangers of deploying troops in volatile domestic situations. Local resistance, protests, and clashes with partisan troops could spiral into a crisis justifying martial law or further crackdowns. Critics warn this plan risks undermining constitutional protections while fueling division and unrest.

On the allegations of election fraud your commentary on it has me scratching my head. I am wondering if you got the letters mixed up. The letter Spoonamore sent to Harris on Nov 15 is very clear about his concerns about election fraud and he has as a government contractor a Duty to Warn under "DNI Clapper's 2015 directive".
"In my professional view there are multiple and extremely clear indications the presidential vote was wilfully compromised."
This is the second letter he wrote. The first was to Pennsylvania officials on Nov 7. There was another public letter dated Nov 13 from Duncan Buell calling for hand recounts. These are pretty serious allegations that require follow up and hopefully the people in power are doing just this. I hope there is no not wanting to look like a poor loser holding anyone back. The US and its democracy are on "death ground". Actions that reflect this need to be taken.
Did Greg Abbott and Ron Disantis not just spend millions of dollars bussing and flying people from the border to blue states and cities? Now Trump is going to go into those same states and cities and round them up and deport them. Does it get any crazier than that?
