It’s actually the reverse, of course. The only way a convicted criminal, found liable for sexual abuse, who incited an armed insurrection could win again is because millions of Americans live in an information bubble and believe things that are manifestly and demonstrably untrue.

Don’t ask whose fault this was. Plenty of time for second-guessing and recriminations. Ask instead, what can you do? For my part, that means telling the truth as I see it, as long as I can. The media will be under a lot of pressure to toe the line; don’t capitulate in advance

“Tech companies + Rupert Murdoch’s news outlets have combined to bring us here… You may be tired & heartbroken, but that does not mean we can rest for long… We are not going away and we will not be quiet.” 🇺🇸 Kara Swisher’s thread is worth your time: threads.net/@karaswisher/p…

Weird election night in North Carolina. Trump won, as did Republican judges. But at the same time Democrats won every major executive branch race (governor, AG, superintendent of schools), the only competitive US House race, and even broke the GOP supermajority in the legislature

Montana, Nevada, Arizona, and Missouri voted for a woman's right to choose while simultaneously voting for the guy who stripped them of that right. Wild times.

I'm devastated and I know you are too. And I'm holding on to this: the fight for American democracy is bigger than any one election. We were fighting for a just democracy yesterday. We'll be fighting for a just democracy tomorrow. The fight will be harder. We will hold each

We are going to have a lot more to say about how we respond to this moment, but we’re in a race against the clock to pull out wins in narrow House and Senate races. The most important thing you can do right now is help make sure that every vote is counted in these tight races.

Biden's theory of the case was always wrong This IS who we are After months of fear for democracy, a U.S. majority picked a racist, misogynistic and dangerous candidate in a free and fair election Here's how the rest of us can respond. My new column🎁share.inquirer.com/t0CPj8

I think it's tempting to think of this election as if everyone was working from the same information and the country just made a very dark choice. How could all these women vote for someone who hates women? How could all these latino men vote for someone who hates latino men? Et.

My post-election note. Short version: this is devastating. But Americans did *not* suddenly embrace fascism. Project 2025 is deeply unpopular. They want us to feel powerless. We're not. We have a choice: surrender or organize. I choose to organize. indivisibleteam.medium.com/democracy-is-i…

I don’t get this, at all If Trump plans to be above the law, and he does, then make HIM take the actions that reveal his tyranny to the American people. DO NOT OBEY IN ADVANCE

My message about the election results:

Despair is not an option. It helps no one.

Here The New York Times we fixed this for you

Asha Rangappa It has been an information war since 2015. Most people just didn't realize it.

NEW: Without releasing details, Mass. lawmakers say they have a deal on a sweeping economic development package, with plans to “bring it to the floor next week.” That would mean the House schedules a formal session then, when it also could take up a stalled climate change bill.

The ACLU has never been more prepared for the fight ahead. We have the playbook to fight back — and we, the people, are ready to defend our fundamental freedoms. Here’s how Massachusetts leaders can take action TODAY to build a firewall for freedom: ACLUM.org/firewalls

Lesson 1: Do not obey in advance. Thread of lessons from my book #OnTyranny. Written in 2016.

Until we make it clear that Republican policy causes their economic woes, Americans will continue to believe Republicans are better on the economy. It’s not about the issues. Biden delivered big for the working class but none of it mattered bc of ingrained perceptions.
