If true, DOGE’s alleged compromise of SSA systems threatens the security of the 2026 election bc the DHS’s “SAVE” voter purge system—which 27 states have already begun using—decides who to purge based on info from SSA’s systems. The GOP’s Save America Act wld force all 50 states to use “SAVE”. 1/

If true, these allegations are as bad (in my opinion) as DOGE having “God level” access to voting machines. Arguably, these allegations present an even worse scenario because there is no recount that can help us if, hypothetically, key House & Senate races are stolen via bogus voter purges.

The Trump administration’s “Save” voter purge system—an underreported centerpiece of the GOP’s so-called “Save America Act”—relies on data from SSA’s “Numident” file, which was allegedly compromised by DOGE. Thread. #NoOnSave #ProtetOurVotes

Listen to the ages: 14m. 17m. 22m. 6y. Pregnant women unconscious. Seizing.

These are 911 calls from ICE’s Dilley detention center. When babies keep leaving in ambulances, that isn’t care. It’s a crisis behind fences.

Preserve evidence. protect families. demand review.

So all Trump did to day was use Iran's closure of Hormuz as an excuse to reward Russia, which is helping Iran wiht targeting, and give his buddies a chance to cash in on their insider knowledge?

Anything I'm missing?

Thanks To Trump & My Former Party, America Is No Longer That Shining City On A Hill Podcast Episode · The Social Contract with Joe Walsh · March 9 · 36m

Putin/Russian intelligence is helping Iran locate & kill American service members. And Trump refuses to condemn Putin/Russia. He won’t do it. Donald Trump is a traitor. He’s a traitor to America. This is just the latest piece of evidence. Today’s show.👇 podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Lindsey Graham

@LindseyGrahamSC
The American Embassy is being evacuated in Riyadh because of sustained attacks by Iran against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

It is my understanding the Kingdom refuses to use their capable military as a part of an effort to end the barbaric and terrorist Iranian regime who has terrorized the region and killed 7 Americans.

Question – why should America do a defense agreement with a country like the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia that is unwilling to join a fight of mutual interest?

Americans are dying and the U.S. is spending billions to dislodge the terrorist Iranian regime that threatens the region. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia seems to be issuing statements and doing things in the background that are marginally helpful, but unwilling to participate in military operations to end the reign of terror coming out of Iran. Hopefully Gulf Cooperation Council countries will get more involved as this fight is in their backyard. If you are not willing to use your military now, when are you willing to use it?

Hopefully this changes soon. If not, consequences will follow.

Lindsey is pissy that the Saudis don't want to become full belligerents in the war that Lindsey started with little consultation with the Saudis.

Mojtaba Khamenei, a son of Iran's late supreme leader, is chosen to replace his father A secretive figure within the Islamic Republic, Mojtaba Khamenei was not seen publicly in the days after an Israeli airstrike targeting the supreme leader’s offices killed his 86-year-old father at th...

It is reported that Iran selected Mojtaba Khamenei in part because Trump said in an interview that he was "unacceptable" to Trump.

So Trump has ensured the person running Iran is *more* theocratic and hates the US for killing his wife and father. Well done, Donald!

He lies when it rains,
He lies about Spain.
He lies at night,
He lies mid flight.
He lies every afternoon,
He lies when he drops his spoon.
He lies sitting in a chair,
He lies while coloring his hair.
He lies about an economy on the skids,
He even lies about dead school kids.👇

State media watch:
The image of Trump saluting - without his baseball hat that you can buy at his website - is falsely labeled as Trump acknowledging the soldiers killed on March 1.
This was not a mistake - its also on the Fox News website.

I’m sure Iranians will be very open to a leader chosen by the people responsible for this.

The national suicide being committed by the Republican-led United States has no historical precedent. Centuries from now (if humanity survives that long), historians will struggle to explain how such a thing was possible.
