Maybe ... they had already voted? I think he just narced out a bunch of people trying to double vote.
He doesn't actually understand that poll watchers are optional.
Also describing slo-mo tape showing 18,000 votes all for Biden.
He's sure just the Dominion machines are being altered, tho.
Then starts talking about Detroit.

Because after losing 60 times, they're beginning to cop on.
We don't have to go through each [issue]. What's the difference between winning by 2 votes and winning by 2 million votes?
"We have won this election in Georgia."
BR: The challenge you have is that the data is wrong.
Trump interrupts. "In one state we have a tremendous number of dead people. I'm sure we do in GA too."
Said the video was reviewed by "police and other professional people."
BR: Mr. President, we did an audit of that and proved conclusively they were not scanned three times.
BR: WE'll send you the link from [the TV station]
Ryan German: We had our officers, GBI, as well as FBI agents.
Trump: Dishonesty or incompetence.
Trump: How many people do that? They missed it? [laughs]
Trump of course was arguably ineligible to vote in FL.
Trump: Cleta, a lot of it we don't need. They should share it. We don't need it .
They're laughing at you Brad, behind your back. You made it almost impossible for Republicans to win. I don't care how long it takes me. This is never giving, we have some incredible talent. THey need more time for big numbers

BR: THey're provided by state law.
Trump: Most are made out to Trump. When they came in they were told, I'm sorry, you've already voted.
As GA tries to figure out WTF, Cleta interrupts.
Trump: I'm not asking you Cleta, honestly.

Breaking: Not only does John Solomon continue to include more and more false claims in his propaganda, but after 4 years of "reporting" on FISA he still doesn't know what FBI Director signs to on FISA.
In reality, this is what John Solomon's "SMOKING GUN" says:
Steele was considered reliable (true!), his sources were in a position to report on what they reported on (true!), the reporting corroborated stuff in the report [that, btw, is mostly classified]
This paragraph, for example, includes 3 lies and one exaggeration: First, CIA informed FBI that until 2011, they asked Page questions about the RU intelligence officers trying to recruit him.
That does NOT cover the most alarming thing he did in 2015 or one RU intelligence officer that Page did not tell the CIA about while still an approved contact.
USG had gotten opinions about Steele that weren't entirely favorable (but unsurprising for operations officer), but this is before questions abt source network.

So the cryptocurrency industry has basically two products, one which is relatively benign and doesn't have product market fit, and one which is malignant and does. The industry has a weird superposition of understanding this fact and (strategically?) not understanding it.
The benign product is sovereign programmable money, which is historically a niche interest of folks with a relatively clustered set of beliefs about the state, the literary merit of Snow Crash, and the utility of gold to the modern economy.
This product has narrow appeal and, accordingly, is worth about as much as everything else on a 486 sitting in someone's basement is worth.
The other product is investment scams, which have approximately the best product market fit of anything produced by humans. In no age, in no country, in no city, at no level of sophistication do people consistently say "Actually I would prefer not to get money for nothing."
This product needs the exchanges like they need oxygen, because the value of it is directly tied to having payment rails to move real currency into the ecosystem and some jurisdictional and regulatory legerdemain to stay one step ahead of the banhammer.
If everyone was holding bitcoin on the old x86 in their parents basement, we would be finding a price bottom. The problem is the risk is all pooled at a few brokerages and a network of rotten exchanges with counter party risk that makes AIG circa 2008 look like a good credit.
