I hope the judge tosses it and forces Trump to pay the CBS legal fees.

Florida man suing a New York company registered out of Deleware in the Northern District of Texas. What a country!

He's grasping at straws. I fully expect if he loses to run to a non-extradition nation and tweetshit for the rest of his sad (hopefully short) life.

Dependent on how things play out, if Democrats get a majority however slight in both houses, I fully expect him to go apopletic about fraud and how his true believers should resist.

If the Trumpanzees gets either house, I fully expect sabotaging any sort of progress at the bequest of Orange Shitler.

If I'm reading things right there are 33 seats open in 2026 in the Senate; 39 in the House.

Either he loses and drops the case or he wins and this may be the first step in Orbanizing the media.

It's the latter. Elon sued Media Matters and advertiers in the same district and has gotten a bunch of favorable rulings.

[JPhillips]

But he has to win on Tuesday for it to work that way.

This seems fine. No problem here.

NEW: At a church in rural Georgia, attendees were informed that they are battling a “spiritual war” against election fraud.

Then they were told how to fight back: show up en masse to pressure local officials to withhold certification of the election. https://t.co/kzmNJwwhJS

It is pretty incredible how much legit election interference the people 'concerned with' election interference have accomplished in the past few election cycles.

This is the obvious direction we were headed in. I won't be the least bit surprised if we see some legit election fraud come out of this election. I doubt it will be anything terribly wide scale, but I think we'll see more than we've ever seen. Trump and the right wing media has their supporters so wound up they'll think they're just evening the score with dem cheating.

You mean like this?

MAGA guy steals two ballots by stuffing them up his shirt when they let the public observe testing, then his accomplice causes a scene and claims elections workers “lost” the ballots. Then they post video to Facebook. Expect more of this MAGA dipshittery. https://t.co/sfkftNb8Ai

Yeah it's going to get worse. I've already seen multiple situations where guys have tried to go at election workers for denying them voting because they tried to wear Trump shit while voting. We had the guy show up to an early voting location with a machete to intimidate Harris voters. Trump has been on social media telling people a guy tried to vote 2,500 times and got caught, which isn't at all what happened.

It’s incredibly sad to see how one fucked up individual, Trump, has single handedly rotted the entire democratic process and norms. And for what?

I guess 250 years is a good run in the grand scheme of things historically speaking. Dominant countries/kingdoms/etc don’t stay that way forever.

This stuff sucks but come on. We haven't exactly been bastions of democracy over the past 250 years.

Trump can win, but I think I'd rather be Harris than him at the moment. She has a lot more resources, both people and money, committed to getting out the vote. The big worry is what GOP legislators and SCOTUS are willing to do to see Trump win.

[RainMaker]

This would seem to be good news for Dems.

Fulton, DeKalb and Cobb all running ahead of statewide turnout in Georgia. Gwinnett—which is sometimes a problem county irt turnout—getting close there too after not starting off all that great. https://t.co/N1P5bDVQgV

And more good news for the Dems as Marist is one of the best polls there is. Crazy that the polls show they trust Trump a little more on the economy and all they've done is run weird transgender ads in those states.

Marist's final polls from the Blue Wall:

—MI: Harris up 51/48
—PA: Harris up 50/48
—WI: Harris up 50/48

They last polled these in September. PA was tied, Harris was up 50/49 in WI & 52/47 in MI.

2000 is proof positive.
