1. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence

Can you provide any investigatory data that suggests this happened?

8. People have a right and a duty to ask hard questions.

Shaming them into silence is not how free speech and science work.

9. Asking whether there is actual evidence is a fair question.

10. Asking for evidence is a "shaming"?

No one asked them to be silent; on the contrary, I implicitly asked them to tell me more.

Don't be silly.

2. Perhaps you can hire Sidney Powell to investigate? I hear she is available.

3. No Hard Evidence...yet...

ChatGPT ("ShatGPT" if its response stinks):

There is no evidence directly linking Postmaster General Louis DeJoy to specific mail-in ballot disruptions that could have impacted the 2024 election outcome or Kamala Harris's loss. While concerns were raised about potential USPS inefficiencies, DeJoy assured preparations for a surge in mail-in ballots. His consolidation plan paused but still faced criticism for potentially affecting ballot delivery. However, any alleged connection between these issues and Harris's defeat lacks substantiated proof at this point​​​​.

5. Buried in Alaska, next to the earthquake and hurricane machines are the government mail-evaporation machines!

They must have switched them to disintegrate blue ballots by mistake.

The lengths people will go to avoid admitting that turnout wasn't great enough to overcome this nation's rampant stupid, racist, and misogynist citizens is ridiculous. Do better in the future. I hope this makes "since" to you.

6. Occam's Razor says the simplest explanation is probably the correct one.

And the simplest and most likely explanation is that about half of our population consists of mean, dumb, uninformed misogynists and racists who believed Trump's lies and couldn't stand the thought of a woman in charge of the country. If there's actual evidence that DeJoy was stealing ballots through the postal system I'd like to see it, but this sounds as far-fetched as the unsubstantiated claims Trump's people made in 2020 that got shot down in 60+ lawsuits.

7. and a large percentage of people don't give enough of a shit to vote at all

Will be interesting to see what percent of people -- and breakdowns by the groups most likely to be hurt by Project 2025 -- women, seniors, people with ACA coverage, LGBTQ+, etc.
