This seems to be retribution, plain and simple.

    So, I saw evanjrowley's post before it was flagged, and did my own research, following what his links said, to the sources they linked. Simply put, evanjrowley's links are lies. The Kreb's specific claims are lies. They link to sources that are carefully edited, and even then, it's clear that is being presented by evanjrowley's sites is not what is being said. Simply put, evanjrowley is trying to spread disinformation.

> This seems to be retribution, plain and simple. It's hardly surprising as it's almost the defining feature of Trump - pettiness and revenge minded. (though strangely, he hasn't publicly insulted his Pennsylvania would-be-assassin, but luckily his ear has healed remarkably well and so maybe he feels no need to do so)

  When someone demonstrates actual power, he backs down and cowers. It's why he always ends up doing awkward submissive gestures when interacting with foreign autocrats. No real confidence, all bluster.

Please, some reasonable Trump voter explain how this is acceptable. How can the sitting president still be openly claiming that a previous election was fraudulent after all this time?

    > The margins were extremely thin in 2020, and there were many sketchy things going on around mail-in ballots and stuff. These allegations from Trump supporters have been disproved in court many times. What will iy take for you to admit that he's misusing his power to target people who disagree with his election lies?
    - wakawaka28 1y ago
      Considering how ill-treated Trump and his supporters have been and still are by courts, it is no wonder that they don't trust the courts. Regardless of what you or I think, he is going after people he believes are corrupt. The exact same people who targetted him unfairly for years, in some cases. I'm not losing sleep over this.

        It's not ill treatment. In many of those cases they openly said they didn't have any "specific evidence", but "belief". That's not how courts work, and it's not unfair of them to hold you to an evidentiary standard.

        Will you trust the courts that have Republican-appointed judges? Trump lost in those, too.

From a regime that has a long history of lies, misdirection, and attempts to repress our basic freedoms as a nation and a people. This is why I write my Congress critters at least a month complaining. I know one letter only pushes the needle a tiny bit, but after a lot we'll eventually get them to realize that Congress is the real power and not the dime store dictator in the White House.

  I would be pushing local/state officials as well to ensure independent auditing of voting machines, considering the administration's hostility towards the CVE program, and the recent news of Musk's alleged scraping and aggregating records into a "master database".
