Before the election, we controlled the Michigan legislature, but not anymore.

Are the average citizens in Michigan that brainwashed or is it that the elections are rigged? Because if the average Joes in MI would vote that stuff in then then we are DONE as a nation.

I thought Michigan was like a lot of other "blue" states. They have one or two big cities that vote blue and out vote the entire rest of the state that votes red.

So, Republicans don't live in big cities anymore?

No, not so much. Where I am there is one or two counties that vote blue leaving the rest of the state blue ruled. This is done because most of the Gen-Z workers/ voters in this urban area have been sold a bill of goods that socialism is the way to go and wealth should be redistributed and shared with all- even the mentally ill who are everywhere in our urban cores. I’ve been having this conversation with my oldest because he thinks that orange man is bad, that was until I pointed out that if we all share the wealth then the State will take his inheritance when DH and I expire and give it to the homeless to help them because they “need it”. Needless to say he is currently rethinking his position on social programs. All this to say several voters in this generation have been taught that tolerance (aka voting blue) above all else is kindness. It’s not.

Not as many as Dems. You have to remember that the ones that get the welfare checks and other "handouts" live in tghe big cities and the mass majority are dems.

Too true Bandit, I guess that’s the point. Unfortunately our “brilliant “ county leaders have been moving those who are on the government dole out into suburbia. This started right before 2020 and has only gotten worse. No public transportation to get them to/ from appointments. Social services are in the cities not suburbs/ country. WTH is going on with our leaders thinking that our rural communities can/ should be dealing with this problem that the cities created!😡

Texas is the same way. The big cities are blue & we just barely stay red as a state. We need the electoral college on the state level, too. but politicians want ranked voting so the dems can stay in office forever. New Mexico has a similar problem & is only blue in SantaFe/Albuquerque, but they have enough votes to keep the state blue.

Yep. Too many more "conservative" Kalifornians come and out number the real conservatives in Texas and the whole will be screwed.

I do believe there was election fraud, but Whitmer really used the abortion issue to bring out her troops. The state passed an amendment to the constitution that made Roe v. Wade look practically pro-life. The same thing happened a few years ago when legalizing marijuana was on the ballot. Now we are a mecca for abortions, surrounded by pot facilities and "provisioning centers," and Whitmer wants to continue the destruction by turning Michigan into one big solar/wind farm/EV battery plant and take away our 2nd Amendment rights.

That "Red Trickle" should teach "somepeople", somewhere that something is amiss. But Alas, "We" have trouble Looking" Tyranny in the Face and avert our gaze to the ground while shuffling our feet in submission. 2020 ,2022, but there's always 2024 Comrades!!! Sheesh, I can't wait until 2026 .....

As I was heading to the kitchen today, I overheard a news program, my guess is it was CNN. It was all about the Dominion Machine and Fox News. That was the reason for the story. The actual story was the embedded propaganda within the story saying that the election was not stolen and that Fox Executives knrew this. There is a lot of psychological BS, and of course the story reeked with "appeal to experts" logical fallacies.

They also were presenting the narrative that the dominion machine scandal was dreamed up all on FOX news 9 Days following the election. Don't they remember that it was the very night that things started to stink? The Swing states shut down, we have video, and yet we are the ones who are crazy conspiracy theorists.

You should really read the articles by Kanekoa The Great (Substack) about those voting machines and the software running them.

I'll take a look at it. After the 2020 election, I had a commission for some t-shirt designs. They were three "variations on a theme" of election irregularities. One t-shirt showed a "shuttle" dropping off zombies who voted at a graveyard, another showed two people stuffing mailboxes with mail-in votes, and a third showed a "technician" tweaking" the Dominion voting machines.

I'll take a look at their substack.

Enjoy! The articles are long (be aware), but they're fascinating.....and kinda scary.

I bet the zombie one is really cool!

I did do some reading about them way back. At the very least people should be skeptical when elections...like covid restrictions, are broken down into mantras.

"Secure and fair" election.
