    Pastor Lee, who has been indicted with Trump in GA, is saying that his involvement in overturning the 2020 election was an act of being a good Samaritan.

    Lee traveled from Illinois to Georgia to become involved with election worker Ruby Freeman who has been the object of truther narratives about the 2020 election supposedly being stolen from Trump.


    Pastor Indicted With Trump in Georgia Asks Evangelical Supporters for Help

    excerpt:

    "After the congregants blessed Mr. Lee, a reporter asked him why — if he was in Georgia to offer spiritual support — he had been on the phone with the leader of Black Voices for Trump and a Chicago publicist.

    He referred the question to Mr. Shestokas, who said, “What you’re asking is something that the state is supposed to prove. That’s their job, OK?”"

    Michael Cohen Explains Why All Trump Lawyers End Up Sounding The Same

    excerpt:

    “Why does everyone who works for him [Trump] start sounding like him no matter what they sounded like before?” asked the “All In” anchor.

    “It’s weird,” Hayes suggested.

    “Yeah, it’s not weird,” replied Cohen. “It’s actually part of the job.”

    Trump “tells you what he wants you to say,” he explained. “It’s not as if Chris Kise came up with this on his own. There are talking points. And if you don’t hit the talking points that Donald wants, you’re fired. That’s exactly what Chris Kise is doing.”

    Trump endorsed Cameron. He blames his loss on the stench of McConnell.

    excerpt:

    Daniel Cameron lost because he couldn’t alleviate the stench of Mitch McConnell,” Trump asserted in a Truth Social post Wednesday. “I told him early that’s a big burden to overcome.”

    As someone who lives and votes in Ohio I think another thing to consider is that we did this despite the GOP Gerrymandered voting maps that were rejected by the Ohio Supreme Court.

    Gerrymandering has kept the GOP in control of state legislatures which can be used to thwart the will of the people expressed in the statewide popular vote.

    The general public in Ohio has voted against the gerrymandering practice and the Ohio supreme court has ruled against the gerrymandered GOP maps, yet the maps have remained the same.

    In WI, the GOP-favored state supreme court was helping the GOP-controlled legislature. That changed when Protasiewicz was elected to the supreme court. Led by Robin Voss, the GOP tried to thwart that change by calling to impeach her before she even started her position on the court.

    Robin Voss finally came to his senses and ended a 14-month long taxpayer-funded 'investigation' of the 2020 presidential election, that was supposedly stolen from Trump, led by Gableman that produced nothing.

    Supreme Court directs Ohio's top court to take another look at redistricting lawsuit

    excerpt:

    "Unlike in North Carolina, Ohio’s constitution contains a specific anti-gerrymandering amendment, which was overwhelmingly approved by voters. That provision gives Ohio’s high court the authority to determine if a map “unduly favors or disfavors a political party” but not to draw a replacement.

    The Ohio Supreme Court twice struck down congressional maps drawn by Republican officials after the 2020 census, although the second map nonetheless was used in the 2022 elections. That map resulted in 10 Republicans and five Democrats winning election.

    In their appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, Republican lawmakers in Ohio had claimed that state justices overstepped their authority by setting their own definitions for what fair maps should look like, including an acceptable partisan make up."

    Trump's latest pressure campaign on Vos is to impeach the WI state’s nonpartisan elections administrator.

    In 2022, Vos underestimated Trump in his quest to run for president again.


    Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Vos hopes Trump realizes he should 'step aside' from presidential primary

    Vos:

    "Sometimes, you have to be willing to step aside and say the greater good of what I believe in is more important than my own ego. And I hope that is where I hope Donald Trump will eventually get to. Is he the strongest candidate to run in 2024? I think everybody could agree there are other people who could fight just as hard and have the same conservative beliefs but have the ability to attract some of those people that we talk to that aren't Republican and believe in what we do but just dislike his style or the way he operates."

    During a nearly two-hour speech in NH on Veterans Day, Trump vowed to root out the radical leftist vermin.


    Trump Takes Veterans Day Speech in a Very Different Direction

    excerpt:

    "Using incendiary and dehumanizing language to refer to his opponents, Mr. Trump vowed to “root out” what he called “the radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country.”

    “The threat from outside forces is far less sinister, dangerous and grave than the threat from within,” Mr. Trump said Saturday in a nearly two-hour Veterans Day address in Claremont, N.H."

    Trump made another gaff today by saying that Orban says Obama should resign and be replaced with Trump.


    Trump Forgets Who Is President AGAIN — Media Calls Him Out

    excerpt:

    Trump:

    But they were interviewing him two weeks ago and they said, “What would you advise President Obama? The whole world seems to be exploding and imploding.”.

    And he said “It’s very simple. He should immediately resign and they should replace him with President Trump, who kept the world safe.”

    Trump seemingly can't remove Obama from his mind.

    Maybe it's scars leftover from the 2011 White House Correspondents' Dinner when Obama in a playful way roasted Trump who was in the audience.
