Yes, I heard that on Chris Hayes. It occurred to me to add that rightful suspicion to the Musk claim that it's because of him the felon won.

So yes, the "free and fair" of the midterms is our #1 threat. We will know, even after high Democratic turnouts, whether or not these latest elections prove that democracy is dead. We could have CISA and/or white hats monitoring tabulators in battlegrounds, and/or military intel doing the same, since musk has contracts with them. Also, when Marc Elias is talking with a Democratic oligarch (who is likely a monetary supporter of the Elias Group) I'm aware that something is up that they know and are not telling us because they don't want the musk network to know what they know.

True, we have cause to worry because we don't know who or what's pulling strings in the background. But we must continue as a public to establish national opinion -- through protest and polls -- to offset the lies of the felon's network, and the distractions of corporate media. I think we've established that, as shown in all kinds of polls, but we have to continue to hold sway over the nation's perspective. Thank heaven for Indivisibles and other orgs that have already organized 5 million.
