Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich welcomed President-elect Donald Trump’s electoral victory Monday, saying that “the time has come” to extend full Israeli sovereignty over the occupied West Bank.

He made the comment a day after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a recorded statement that he has spoken three times with Trump since the election and that they “see eye to eye on the Iranian threat.

      That seems a little uncalled for. Just because the repugnicans gaslit is for the last four years about 2020 doesn’t mean you get to lump anyone with suspicions in with them. They got to take their evidence to court. If the results are legitimate no one has anything to lose.

      now can you tell me why electronic voting machines in swing states need to be connected to Starlink? The company notoriously owned by the man who bragged about how easy it would be to hack those same machines with “one line of code.” The man who said he’d be going to jail if Trump didn’t win. The man who has just been caught faking his million dollar Republicans voter registration ‘lottery.’ Or what Trump meant the various times he claimed he didn’t need votes to win, or when he said he had an election day secret weapon? or why Elon knew the results four hours in advance? Or why MTG said on Fox two days ago the exact number of electoral votes Trump would have today?

      There’s a whole lot of oddities and inconsistencies. Denying them because you don’t want to look like a conspiracy nut isn’t helpful.
