So to clarify, the same guy who's spent years making wild accusations of widespread voter fraud without producing a shred of evidence, is now offering a million dollars to people who report voter fraud. trump just announced that anyone reporting voter fraud that leads to an arrest and conviction will receive $1 MILLION. He hasn’t explained where the money comes from, who administers the payments, or how any of this would work. He’s good at making empty promises. We’re a week away from a national election, and the president is suddenly promising million dollar rewards for reporting alleged voter fraud. What could possibly go wrong.

“Life is often a hard journey. Those of us familiar with the darker corners of the human heart, which is many of us, weighted by events that rob one of their innocence but bestow a blessing of resilience in its place, can’t help but recoil and shake with rage at any attempt to re-traumatize survivors of childhood abuse. MAGA was all too happy to try and pin a farcical sex-trafficking ring run out of a pizza shop on Hillary Rodham Clinton (while being led by a man who called Jeffrey Epstein a best friend), seems all too happy to re-litigate childhood trauma and audaciously defame the sexual abuse suffered by Dr. Amy Acton at the hands of her evil stepfather. I cannot imagine the pain of having your mother side with your abuser. I do understand being separated from a parent and the vulnerability, challenges, and mighty burden that can have on a child. It is the sort of thing that can follow you well into adulthood. A dogged pain that never really disappears. Yet, Amy not only persisted, she excelled and went on to live her life helping others by becoming a physician. Among her many accomplishments was completing a pediatrics internship at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, earning a masters in Public Health from The Ohio State University and serving as the director of the Ohio Department of Health. She will undoubtably make an excellent governor for the good people of the Buckeye State. Sometimes life’s tragedies have a way of tempering certain souls that not only rise above horrific circumstances, they find a way to use that remarkable strength to provide an example to others. You could not ask more of a person: we must honor and protect those who rise above grudge and grief to give back. It’s harder than it looks and it never looks easy. That is the very definition of real leadership and it is clearly a threat to the smarmy opportunist and bloated ogre using her personal and painful childhood circumstances as a cheap political stunt. It’s frankly a certain kind of awfulness that I am not sure I have witnessed before.” noelcasler.substack.com/p/yo…
