READ: John Rogers Dismantles Theory About Alabama Voter Fraud

On Tuesday, Democrat Doug Jones won a special election in Alabama to take over the Senate seat vacated by Republican Jeff Sessions. The campaign was hotly contested, even with multiple allegations against his Republican challenger, Roy Moore, of sexual misconduct and assault against minors.


Jones' victory marked the first time in 25 years that an Alabama Democrat has won a seat in the Senate, and it was mainly due to an overwhelming turnout from Alabama's black citizens.

But, of course, the far right loves a good conspiracy theory. And after Jones' win, there were plenty to go around.

Unable to wrap his mind around the prospect of historically-disenfranchised black voters being able to sway an election, conservative radio talkshow host Bill Mitchell tweeted out a popular theory that black voters had been brought from out-of-state, saying: "I am hearing rumors that black voters from MS were encouraged to cross over into AL and vote. Anyone else hearing this? Anything to it? That might explain the 30% turnout higher than population percentage. Just reporting the rumor."

Right. Just reporting a rumor. Not disseminating baseless theories without any evidence whatsoever. Got it.

Twitter went into full mocking mode:

That's when TV writer John Rogers entered the fray. To totally annihilate the theory in an epic rant.

And he didn't hold back:

Here's where the theory really starts to fall apart:

This would definitely require some next-level planning:

There's a much easier conspiracy, if you're really looking for one:

And why does Rogers feel he has the authority to destroy the far-fetched theory with such precision?

Well, the fact they he's an accomplished writer in the heist and con genre certainly helps:

Rogers is the co-creator of the TNT drama Leverage, as well as a writer for The Librarians, so he clearly knows his way around a secret conspiratorial plot.

Twitter showed their admiration for Rogers' expert takedown:

Although it did make people (mock) wonder...

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.

Liberal TikToker Mortified After Discovering That Her Therapist Is Hardcore MAGA

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
