Speaking out for the first time. Why . This is not a normal election in any way. Certainly not one defined by policy debate. In one fell swoop, Donald Trump laid the groundwork to dispute the 2024 election just as did he in 2020. He threatened mass arrests of election officials, political opponents and critics and it landed like a Thunder Clap in the Saturday Night truth social post. It read in part, quote, when i win, those people that cheated will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Which will include longterm Prison Sentences so that this depravity of justice does not happen again. Please beware that this legal exposure extends to lawyers, political operatives, donors, illegal voters and corrupt election officials. Those involved in Inscrupulous Behavior will be sought out and caught and prosecuted at levels unfortunately never seen before in our country. And now you should know it includes a lot of nonsensical caps. A couple of long words that make me wonder who wrote i
if you want to keep kids in schools, you better not peddle disinformation about vaccinations. i mean, how do you unpack the lies and then get back on offense when the other side is so rooted in what sam describes as nonreality. yeah, i mean, look, for the other side, this is their offense, and this is going to be their offense for the foreseeable future. look, nicole, i do not make political predictions but i m going to make one right now, so get ready. parents rights is going to be a buzz word for 2022. and you know, while it s important to note that classroom culture wars are really nothing new and have been part of a divisive yet effective kind of partisan playbook that taps into some, not all, white suburban voters fears, as a way to mobilize them to the polls, parenting and parents rights is absolutely going to be politicized in 2022. so, you know, school boards have long been the domain of local education and school government reporters, but some of us are going to have to du
and saying that trump specifically urged governor abbott to move on the audit legislation reupping his public lobbying even after the state announced a full forensic audit of four counties after trump s first request for legislation that would allow a review of mail-in and in-person ballots across the state. we shall repeat, there was no fraud. not in texas, or anywhere else in the 2020 election. ask bill barr. but this is the new nonreality we re in. one of the two parties doesn t accept the truth, doesn t accept the facts even when they come from republicans. and as republican efforts to suppress the vote continue, ramp up in fact, the people in power standing up to them become all the more vital to our democracy. people like the democratic governors who have blocked bills by their republican-led legislatures. this morning times takes a close look at three democratic governors in swing states and how the races for their offices in those states next year will be extremely consequentia
things outside of the building happen. i think there are a lot of concerns about what sort of grass roots efforts are going to get mobilized over the summer and what currently exists in terms of the capitol police structure is ready to handle all of that. and it comes back to the previous conversation about the reality or the nonreality of conversations that happen in this town. the conspiracy and fiction of certain conversations that happen in this town. eric swalwell is suing mo brooks. is that a legitimate lawsuit? i m not a lawyer. i don t know. but mo brooks in his response says this. and many brooks judgment, trump should be serving his second term as president of the united states. brooks welcomes public debate with anyone who ignorantly claims otherwise. that is horse, insert. joe biden won the electoral
talking about it. they re saying being let into the oval office. therapy discussing how much worse the storm could have been. to emphasize their point, one of the officials according to the white house picks up a black marker and drew that line across southern alabama. one white house official describing this as innocuous. of course, that does not explain why president trump then went on to use a seven day old map to defend this incident that took place yesterday. the white house says he s being briefed hourly on the progress of hurricane dorian, kate. that doesn t explain why he s still clinging to a forecast that s more than a week old to explain a mistake that happened less than 24 hours ago, kate. exactly. sara, thank you so much. let me bring in brian stelter, the host of reliable sources. brian, you took a deep dive into the reality and nonreality of kind of this whole episode. how actual fact and timeline and data that is publicly available clearly conflicts with the fact
