The push to write in Biden on the ballot didn’t go completely smoothly. The weekend before New Hampshire’s primary, thousands of voters in the state received robocalls that used deep faked audio of the president in an attempt to dissuade them from turning out.
Whatever your thoughts on electoral politics are, this shit right here is such a terrifying prospect for the future…
No one is taking credit, but we all know which party they’re part of. Where is Roger Stone?
Not where he should be: prison.
His head should be adorning a spike atop a parapet somewhere.
That’s an odd way to spell “melting quietly in an oil drum”, but sure.
I’d stick him in a drum of “Turpentine, acetone, benzene. [Judge Doom] calls it the dip.”
Judge Doom wouldn’t put himself, voluntarily, in the dip.
Judge Doom is what happens when you bip around in history like a hare-brained child with no regard for multi-universal consequences and the strain it takes on the squishy human psyche. Apparently, the loss of his dearest Clara and their children was enough to make the ol’ Doc snap right to his core.
Why isn’t th federal government making a bigger deal out of the fact that an official political candidate was used in a deep fake ad saying non consensual words for political interference
Why haven’t these people been charged? Or at least found?? This was a litmus test for more deepfakes of joe during the main election…and they got the approval
Does this mean that liberals can do the same thing with DJT?
Why haven’t these people been charged? Or at least found??
This happened 2 days ago at the time of your comment, it seems a bit early to claim nothing’s being done
Tbh, I’m not sure what liberals could deepfake Trump that would be worse than what he actually says haha
You’re not thinking deeper enough. Imagine a deep-faked Trump saying “Actually, I like Mexicans. It was all a joke. Borders open for everyone! And to all of you who gave me money, thank you haha suckers!! I endorse Joe Biden.”
His voters literally don’t care what he says.
Trump is the President that signed an executive order restricting firearms, but it’s apparently Obama and Biden that are coming after our guns.
neither does biden’s voters
if both of these candidates defecated on the constitution then wiped with it afterwards the people from both camps would still be clambering to lick those sphincters clean afterwards
Democrats don’t just want a pro-genocide corporate shill, they want an 80-year-old pro-genocide corporate shill.
Get ready for next 11 months of “BoTh SidEs aRE thE SaME” bullshit.
If both sides are same, why not vote for pro-genocide corporate shill who is not a rapist, not a traitor, and not a criminal?
Because you can vote third party and not endorse Nazism
Low turnout and high degree of votes for independents tend to favor Republicans in USA, and you have heard of their project 2025 right? A program literally designed to be a clone of nazism
After all the 2016 fearmongering I am genuinely flabbergasted anyone is still falling for it. Republicans aren’t interested in overthrowing the plutocracy because the illusion of voting is the most effective way to keep Americans repressed and docile
They are literally telling you what they want to do. They want a republican president above the law and make a permanent legislative and judicial majority which can’t be unseated through elections.
If they wanted that they could have done it in 2020 when they controlled everything and Trump was president? We heard this story back then and aside from the looney parade on Jan 6, the Republicans did not try to keep him in power like some god ruler.
They tried but couldn’t due to infighting, and because they didn’t have a plan because they didn’t expect to win. Now they have plans. See project 2025 to start with
They absolutely tried to keep him in power, all the lawsuits and other shenanigans was all about trying to block transfer of power when he lost. They literally tried to rig the vote by damaging the postal service, because they knew democrats would rely more on voting by mail with the pandemic going on. They’re working on gerrymandering state maps to artificially give Republicans more winning districts, giving them a chance to win states where they lost the popular vote.
Because I won’t vote for genocide.
Instead I’m voting for Hillary Clinton.
For zero delegates…
Unless the DNC is going to retroactively change their mind and not strip NH of their delegates now that Biden won.
Which would be really shitty considering lots of people didn’t vote because without delegates it was literally pointless.
Just because Republicans went full on fascist doesn’t mean Dems need to start pulling this stupid shit.
Because NH got their panties in a twist and decided that their miniscule state needs to be first? They can go fuck off.
Nope.
Because there wasn’t enough time for NH to change their state law…
DNC and Biden got so mad a state wouldn’t violate state law to help him in an election, they stripped the state of their say in who the candidate was. And it’s a total coincidence he got his ass kicked there last primary…
But it’s cool, because he legitimately is still better than trump, and even though that difference keeps shrinking, no one is allowed to complain about Biden because trump exists…
You’re shouting in to a screeching void, haha. These degenerate buffoons don’t care, or want, the truth and figure the down vote arrow is a sword and that it actually deters you.
It turns out 30 years of dragging the Democratic party to the left lost us as many voters as we gained, and now a bunch of “Democrats” act a lot like Republicans and share the same morals…
What’s crazy is if they had stayed active in the Republican party, they could have actually kept the Republicans somewhat moderate.
Instead them leaving just concentrated the crazy, and turned 1/3 of the country away from voting.
The only ones that won from Dems courting Republican voters was conservative extremists. Everyone else lost.
WTF is this part supposed to mean?
wasn’t on the ballot, it was still chock-full of candidates like the boot-on-head-wearing Vermin Supreme, Rep. Dean Phillip, and Marianne Williamson
Are they calling Dean Phillip a vermin supreme or did someone named Vermin Supreme actually get on the ballot?
There’s a guy who calls himself Vermin Supreme. He wears a boot on his head and iirc claims to be a libertarian. He runs for president every year and never comes even close to winning anywhere.
Edit: meant to say he runs for president every election. He obviously couldn’t run every year.

Choosing to ditch NH because it’s, “Too white„ isn’t a flex.
New Hampshire having a state law that they always get to go first, for a national election, that’s been around for 100 years, is dumb as fuck.
It’s good this change is happening. The primary orders should shuffle around more often. No state declaring “we’re always first” within their state laws should be recognized at the federal level.
omw to the state capital to draft a law saying my state gets to go firster
Here’s a crazy idea. Every state has their primary on the same day so that no state gets to dictate who others get to vote for.
Here’s an even crazier idea. Ditch primaries altogether and use Ranked Choice Voting.
I’m sick and tired of other people deciding which lesser evils I’m allowed to choose between long before my turn to vote even comes around.
They should let the most populated states go first. I’m tired of having our votes count for nothing because half the candidates have already dropped out by the time they get to us, even though we outnumber the people in all the states that go before us. Those early wins and losses would really mean something if they represented a large and diverse population. Might make up a little for how underrepresented we are in the Electoral College.
You as an individual are under-represented, but you as a populous state are too powerful. If California primaries first , no one else matters.
When New Hampshire primaries first, you get a lot of meeting the candidates, an interesting survey result, but the result is still wide open.
Either way, it’s all of us in the middle who get shafted. We don’t get an early say but our vote doesn’t count for much with the big guys coming soon.
I’m torn about whether it is good to be a “safe”state. While it’s nice that we don’t get the nonsense or the robocalls or the mail or the ads, would it hurt to get some attention? Can we be treated like we matter?
