We got to keep saying that the hard work starts now.

Also, we have to prebunk the time bomb they left in the big ugly bill that's set to go off in January.

well, the silver lining to this is that in this era of social media it is at least possible to debunk, prebunk, and create counter-narratives that actually percolate thru society. It gives us a huge advantage over the days when 'segregation academies' blossomed nearly unremarked upon (to same ends).

Remember their contingency plan (big ugly bill) goes into effect after the midterms and they will use it to say how bad a dem led congress is doing.

Do not let them use this narrative.

Things are about to get real expensive fast. Be prepared and be ready to prebunk their gaslighting.

With election season comes *dun dun dun* abortion misinformation 😱

Many folks who end up spreading misinformation have no ill intent. So, before sharing sensational news or info about abortion, stop to check who's sharing it and whether there's credible evidence it's true.

Red gradient with a cutout of a phone that reads, "What is misinformation? It can be easy to share incorrect or misleading info about abortion access, even when you have good intentions. Both abortion misinformation & disinformation can prevent people from seeking care & further stigmatize it. Misinformation is a broad term used to describe a piece of false or misleading info being spread, regardless of intent. Disinformation is a form with a deliberate intent to harm, mislead, or manipulate."

Be ready to speak up.

Better yet, speak up now -- prebunk the Election Denying. The playbook is obvious.

New Election Polling infographic by YouGov titled "Americans largely oppose the president’s threatened interference tactics." It displays three statistics: 75% disapprove of seizing ballots or equipment before counting is complete, 70% disapprove of criminal investigations into election officials, and 70% disapprove of using emergency powers to strip election control from states.
