If you live in Texas, this right here is very disturbing. 👀

[Quoted tweet]
1/Looking increasingly like Musk is setting up the option to pursue a Russia-backed TEXIT strategy. One possible scenario is to spark a deep rift (over the election, perhaps), have Texas secede, but also claim the mantle of “the real America.”


2/7
@RandVegan
Texit has no support and isn’t popular with anyone here. Even without Dems holding one or the legislature bodies this won’t grow anywhere beyound Twitter fringe accounts



3/7
@FrakerMonica
You are right, but this guy is up to no good and must be stopped.



4/7
@boxcarmurphy
Would Texas really secede if it meant losing all those government contracts it currently enjoys?



5/7
@GaryHar70258384
God I hate Musk



6/7
@FerrellsLaw
This is troubling.



7/7
@Ninainnac
I live in Texas and will keep an eye out for this bs. Trump and Musk are destroying democracy.

[Quoted tweet]
Scoop:

Elon Musk quietly created two new entities this month — one called "United States of America Inc," which names him as its sole director.

This follows his $75M America PAC donations, dark money reports and the "government efficiency commission."

@davetroy
3/Steady drumbeat of this crap from Musk and his proxies over the last year. Promises to “Fight for America,” while basing all his assets in Texas and doing his best to capture government there. Pay attention.

5/11
@davetroy
5/I wrote in more detail about Musk and TEXIT a few weeks ago, but these new developments add further evidence in this direction.

[Quoted tweet]
🔴 Elon Musk: A Dangerous ‘Evolution’

Has the X owner simply lost his marbles or been ‘radicalised’ by his own platform? @davetroy traces his beliefs and behaviour to paint an altogether more concerning picture of Musk’s political and cultural journey

bylinetimes.com/2024/10/02/e…


6/11
@davetroy
6/Also note re: his filing of United States of America, Inc. that he has said, “government is just a corporation at the limit,” borrowing a math term suggesting government is just an infinitely large corporation. He says that and many other idiotic things here.

https://invidious.poast.org/live/Zwx_7XAJ3p0?si=SkIEq66GRjnQlq_k



7/11
@davetroy
7/For the record: a TEXIT effort doesn't need to be successful to cause damage. Even starting down this path is enough to cause chaos, and because it would likely be done in an unconstitutional way, it isn't possible to know how it would play out. Best to be forewarned.



8/11
@davetroy
8/And I would bet that Greg Abbott, Ken Paxton, Elon Musk, and Daniel Miller (the TEXIT guy) would be the ones at the forefront of this. Along with any CSPOA allies that they can round up. Also would anticipate people "moving to Texas" to be "part of this." 🤪



9/11
@davetroy
9/Abbott, Paxton, Musk start making declarations of secession. "Allies" start moving to (and supporting) Texas. Conflict and chaos ensue. Then you see what's possible once that scenario is in place. Repeat. A road into the unknown.



10/11
@davetroy
10/Recall that Abbott has already challenged the Federal government’s authority this year. Expect border autonomy to be the rallying cry, should this come together. This isn’t hard to see.

Texas Gov Abbott defies Biden administration amid border battle over island used by cartels



11/11
@davetroy
11/And I would encourage folks to focus more on this as part of a Putin-led strategy to destabilize and then dissolve the United States than to obsess on the specific mechanics of Texas secession. If they pursue this, it will be the tip of a spear.

BREAKING: Judge releases Trump’s plan to steal the election in writing:

Oh this is nothing. It’s just the game plan, in writing, that the Trump team literally wrote out on how to steal the 2020 election by undermining all our votes.

Republicans won’t read it though because Kamala laughs funny.

No wonder why Trump is hiding…

@RozenbergTomer
When the strategy’s in writing, it’s hard to call it fake news. Distractions won’t change the facts staring us in the face.



3/11
@krassenstein
They will just pretend that the strategy was legal, which it was not.



4/11
@WetKissesB
Donald Trump is unfit



5/11
@krassenstein
Since he lost by 7 million votes in 2020. Trump has been:

- Indicted 4 times
- Convicted on 34 counts
- Found liable of sexual assault
- Found liable for business fraud
- Impeached a 2nd time

If Trump wins then something is F--ked up in this country.



6/11
@Micha3lHinrichs
This is nothing illegal nor controversial. You didn’t give it its due diligence and you allowed your political affiliation to cloud your comprehension.



7/11
@krassenstein
It is when combined with the FACTS of their action thereafter.

@drspayne_payne

@krassenstein
The media should be covering this non stop.



10/11
@MickamiousG
Question -
Does this change your vote?



11/11
@krassenstein
It should change Trump Voter's vote, but they won't even read the document.

18 days before Election Day, Allegheny County (Pittsburgh) already has 85,000+ Democratic voters!!!!!

Dem return rate: 57.4%(!!!!)
GOP return rate: 47.8%

This is one of the fastest Democratic-trending counties in PA!

It’s the reason why Fetterman won by 5%!

How does that compare to 2020 and 2022?

@EricL18170
So he likely lost PA? Cautious optimism (make sure to vote!)

@crittergolf
Your numbers don’t match. If Trump is only 10% behind then Pa will be an easy win for republicans

it doesnty matter, dems are probablky gonna lose the election anyway.

Georgia early voting is up to 24% of 2020's turnout and so far still no major changes from the first day's turnout have happened. Gwinnett, Cobb, DeKalb, and Southern rural GA are lagging behind while Fulton, the coast, and Northern GA are ahead.

@Yousefstan41168
One request can you multiply the percents by 2020 margin of president then aggregate them for a total dem vs gop vote?

@HardLeft2024
Cobb is running ahead of the statewide avg tho

@LVote2020
Lots of people working the 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, M-F work schedule in the Atlanta suburbs & it's tough taking off time to vote.

Let's wait and see what happens this weekend, the first weekend of early voting - suburban voters typically vote in big numbers so they'll get it done.

Rural south was hit by Helene. Right?

@Mattlyons2121
Can someone explain purple vs. green? I’d imagine one is positive one’s negative?



9/11
@RandVegan
when you say up 24% you mean in absolute numbers? has it been normalized for the days remaining or percentage of days remaining?



10/11
@ZFlawles1s
this is so weird to analyze because literally none of it makes sense



11/11
@masteryodaiv
what are these divisions?

If I had to describe a campaign that looked like it was losing in a landslide, I’d describe Trump’s 2024 campaign to a tee.

Since losing by 7 million votes in 2020, Trump has managed to:

- Get indicted 4 times.
- Be convicted on 34 felony counts.
- Be found liable of sexual assault.
- Be found liable for massive business fraud.
- Watch his business get convicted of felony fraud.
- And, oh yeah, get impeached for the second time.

And yet, somehow, people are still out here acting like he's going to win again. What the hell is wrong with America? Are we seriously going to pretend none of this matters anymore? Where’s the accountability?



2/6
No, he's a foreigner paid to spread lies.



3/6
FACT: Donald Trump LOST in 2020.

Sorry that you are still in denial 4 years later. Seems like maybe a mental issue.



4/6
The media is doing Harris no favors. That's for sure.



5/6
Imagine telling your kids down the road that you voted for a convicted felon and sexual assaulter.



6/6
Lawfare is a word that guilty people use to try and distract from the fact that they have been convicted of crimes by a jury of their peers.

This story has sunk beneath the waves since @maddow broke it with @chrislhayes two days ago. It's been wiped from my timeline & not findable on the Twitter sites of either of them. Also, my ability to post memes & video has been limited.
New Donald Trump-Stormy Daniels allegations: What we know



2/7
This is the original story I saw during the hand-off between Chris Hayes' show & Maddows! This is MUST WATCH! Between video & documented direct communication between DonOLD's lawyers & Daniels', it's an airtight case. The sentencing judge won't be happy with DonOLD's 2nd attempt.



3/7
The "first time" got him convicted of 34 felonies, the ones the judge will be sentencing him for next month. As the judge weighs the pros & cons of giving DonOLD JAIL TIME, knowing a second, defiant, unrepentant crime attempt occurred won't inspire the judge to leniency.



4/7
My guess is that Trump is desperate, too late, to smother the story because his sentencing for the 34 felonies from the first "hush money" attempt is in about a month, and the judge hearing he's done it again is likely to lengthen his jail time because it's another crime.



5/7
I don't think it's automatic.



6/7
The person to whom it will matter MOST is Judge Merchan, due to sentence DonOLD next month for the felonies from Trump's first attempt to hush Daniels. Knowing he's defied the law AGAIN, the same way, is likely to increase the judge's willingness to apply JAIL TIME for DonOLD.



7/7
We're working together to change that, aren't we? 🙂💪

Walz: This might be the first time both Democrats on the ticket are gun owners. And it might also be the first time the guy on the other side can't pass a background check because he has felonies.
