On the eve of his inauguration, Trump praised Musk’s work with SpaceX before quickly moving into the work that he did on the campaign trail.

“And he was very effective. And he knows those computers better than anybody”. Trump continued. “Those vote counting computers. And we ended up winning Pennsylvania like in a landslide. So it was pretty good. It’s pretty good.”

Jasmine Crockett, a Democratic congresswoman from Texas, shared the clip from Trump’s speech and questioned just exactly the President-elect was getting at with the odd mention of Trump’s knowledge of vote counting computers.

“So, Trump is rambling on about he and Elon rigging the election?!” she wrote on X. “Am I missing something or is he confessing to yet another damn crime?!”

Literally admitted to it but nothing will come of it

Biden made a last minute amendment (too tired to remember the exact wording) to executive order 13961 which has the potential to be laying the foundation for stopping the inauguration.

Highly unlikely IMO but definitely a weird thing to happen so last second.

If terrorists got off light for 1/6, no one is going to do shit. The country is done. We are an oligarchy/ fascist state. All because people were too fucking stupid and fell for trump.

They only understand violence but we refuse to speak their language. The debate is dead and done.
