I would wager those US House losses in FL-15 (Tampa it was our only real shot at taking back the FL delegation, it was a pure toss-up, but the Rethug won by almost 11%) totally possible R to D flip going in), FL-26 (Miami area, it ended up a D to R flip, against all the polls), and FL-27 (Miami area, it ended up a D to R flip, against all the polls) are HIGHLY suspicious as well
make those fucking fascist RW Cubans wail and gnash their teeth when their scum 'winners' are tossed out

(115,875 posts)A person can be pardoned for a federal crime but not from a civil fine. Fat Nixon would pardon his ass tout suite but he couldn't relieve him of a civil penalty, which should be enormous.

So let's wait until late January to unseal the indictments, so that Ass Orange can't pardon him.

(43,573 posts)I think you are trying to falsely slag me off with some bullshit accusation inferred from that link
I never said Cubans did not vote for Rethugs and Trump
I am saying OUR candidates' votes were illegally withheld by DeJoy
didnt mean it that way at all.
you are right on target.
what i dont believe is that that cubans want trump. obama opened it up and trump shut it back down.
everything i know about immigrants tells me that they want to see their homes again.

(43,573 posts)The do not want Cuban opened until the communist regime is crushed, PLUS they hate all socialists/communists and even those we have ZERO remotely socialists in the Dem party, the false labelling works with them.
Bernie doesn't help when he falsely self-labels as a Democratic Socialist, as he is simply a bog standard social democrat, which is a huge difference. Democratic socialists want the state to take over the means of production (Bernie has said he is against that in a tonne of speeches)
Bernie is more or less exactly like the social democrats here in the Nordics. We combine a vibrant, but highly regulated (I argue it is vibrant BECAUSE, not in spite of the regulation) capitalist sector with an very broad, comprehensive social welfare state. They work synergistically together.
It is the one thing I disagree with AOC on. She is not a dem soc, she is like Bernie and many others, a social democrat. It is hubristic to try and think one can rename and re-define 200 year old academic and every day common parlance delineated definitions. It invites big trouble in uber reactionary America, where the average under-educated person automatically and ludicrously equates socialism (of all types) with full stop communism.
The DSA is a poison pill, as many of them ARE actual socialists, and some are even communists. ALL Democrats need to steer far clear of them. The association hurts us with people like these reactionary Cubans and South Americans (and tens of millions of other voters).

(54,770 posts)Prosecutors would have to prove that his actions caused local employees to hide/destroy ballots. In fact, they have to prove that ballots were actually not processed. That supposed 300,000 ballots could well be administrative errors in processing the tally of received and sent to Election Officials unless they find the ballots.
As much as I'd like to see prisons occupied by these cretins, just don't see most of trump's buddies being prosecuted because it's unlikely they'll be convicted, especially with such a close election.
