We're live, talking about the Georgia Senate election results and more with @AmandaBecker, @AndraGillespie and @beckerdavidj.

@AndraGillespie @beckerdavidj "Ossoff did a little worse than Warnock in many counties, and it just seems Warnock picked up a few more votes ... it's really granular," and it will be a while before we can tell why there's a difference, says @AndraGillespie.

@AndraGillespie @beckerdavidj "I don't see how [Trump saying votes don't matter] is a message that will energize your voters to get out there and vote, and I think that hurt Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue," says Amanda

@AndraGillespie @beckerdavidj "We could do a story on voter fraud, but it would be a very short story. It has been investigated extensively... and evidence of voter fraud is very close to zero," says @beckerdavidj.

@AndraGillespie @beckerdavidj Gabriel Sterling, a top Republican GA elections administrator, told CNN that the loss will "fall squarely on the shoulders of President Trump and his actions since Nov. 3rd … When you tell people their vote doesn’t count, they believe that."

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (7) After an incoherent ramble about his plan to march to the Capitol, an agitated & impaired Trump returns to Space Force, VA Cares, the stale old lines from 2019 super-spreader rallies."

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (8) Trump is switching subject from grievance to grievance, from "bad things" to "it was a setup," & "Hillary Clinton is very unhappy because they didn't change votes for her." Unhinged, paranoid, delusional.

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (9) Trump shouts out that the Georgia Senate election last night was rigged, fixed, corrupt, "and Kelly & David didn't have a chance." Then he repeats for 3rd time how he won every state in a landslide, but was robbed.

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (10) Trump yells that "if we had just won 3 of the 7 states in question, we would be President, & the only backline we have's the veto of the President of the United States." No telling what he meant. Incoherent, strange.

#Presidementia #TrumpLiesAmericansDie #TrumpBrainDroppings (11) Trump continues his jacked up rant, falsely claiming Loeffler & Perdue were cheated because of the rigged voting machines. Says he has hundreds of pages of evidence he wants to read. He's out of touch with reality.

Twitter is a wasteland. Evidence...

Democrats who are gloating, be careful. No one, not even you, can control the mob, yours, or "not yours." The mob is the mob; it's an irrational, unthinking, self-destructive, nihilistic force your party created and nurtured for over 50 years with your collectivist bullshit. 1/

NO one's hands are clean, and your party's least of all. You created Trump too. You pushed him, directed your media pals to push him, they made money with him in the headlines, and were happy to oblige. Did you think of the country, you who claim to be so "patriotic" today? 2/

You destroyed candidates who were decent human beings, enabled the candidacy of Trump for self-serving reasons that backfired, ironically b/c the people you maligned for decades, average un-hyphenated Americans were on to you, and picked the "outsider," character be-damned. 3/

When you touted "democracy," which is nothing but mob-rule, did it occur to you the "mob" might turn on you? Did it occur to you it was unpatriotic to encourage mobs, rather than defend individual liberty FROM them? When you trashed the electoral college, what did you expect? 4/

Democrats are JUST as responsible for yesterday as Donald Trump, and everyone who breached security. You don't get to celebrate mob violence for MONTHS, attack the COTUS as "antiquated" or failing to serve "the people," and then act like yesterday had nothing to do with you. 5/

@SidneyPowell1 @realMikeLindell

Surprised in this otherwise excellent obit of legendary journalist Neil Sheehan, the @nytimes didn't mention that the Nixon admin tried to charge Sheehan and his wife Susan under the Espionage Act *after* the Pentagon Papers Supreme Court case.

The Pentagon Papers Supreme Court ruling is, of course, a landmark First Amendment opinion. But it's bizarre to me that the Nixon admin actually tried to *criminally charge* Sheehan for his reporting, and the case is almost lost to history.

One of the only descriptions of the Espionage Act grand jury investigation into Neil Sheehan, besides in the @nytimes archives, is this 2011 @DailyBeast piece by former NYT general counsel James Goodale. It is an absolutely remarkable story.

After Nixon lost the Pentagon Papers Supreme Court case, he was enraged and still wanted the NYT prosecuted. While @DanielEllsberg's grand jury was happening in LA, federal prosecutors opened up an investigation into Sheehan in Boston for "conspiracy to violate the Espionage Act"

The grand jury investigating both Sheehan and his wife Susan, who was a writer at the @NewYorker, subpoenaed several famous journalists and academics, including David Halberstam, Noam Chomsky, and Howard Zinn.

GA hearing:

A Question which begs to be answered.

This is not a blackpill. This is simply rigor. @llinwood

@RepThomasMassie I am a huge supporter of yours but the notion that Congress should sit this one out isn't correct. Adams and Jefferson discussed making decisions on how to count ballots 1796 & 1800. ECA is unconstitutional. In event of no ascertainable majority House elects iaw 12th Amendment.

Courts didn't want to do their duty to settle controversies? Fine. Congress must but not through invoking the ECA. That creates a new unconstitutional way of electing President. Instead support the House election method iaw w/ the 12th A. when the time comes. Thanks.

People will say, "but Biden will have majority."

No, he doesn't. AZ, NV, WI, MI, PA, and GA are ALL in question. Subtract those as being indeterminable due to fraud and/or Constitutional election law violations and you're left with Trump winning.

BUT.....

There isn't a mechanism for excluding states totally from the process so every reasonable step should be take to ensure they are all able, in one way or another, to have their due input. That way in this situation is by having the House elect iaw the 12th Amendment.

So...

Instead of Pence just excluding ballots & declaring Trump winner he should exclude the controversial ballots & then send the election to the House, explaining it's the fair option in view of the circumstances instead of just handing Trump a victory while excluding several states.

To every #Democrats who said #DonaldTrump did NOTHING, here is a list of WHAT HE DID.

👇👇👇👇👇

Trump recently signed 3 bills to benefit Native people. One gives compensation to the Spokane tribe for loss of their lands in the mid-1900s, one funds Native language programs, and the third gives federal recognition to the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians in Montana.

About some of the assertions in this Republican letter justifying opposition to a democratic election and in favor of the very undemocratic mass disenfranchisement of millions upon millions of voters...a thread:

"America is a Republic whose leaders are chosen in democratic elections. Those elections, in turn, must comply with the Constitution and with federal and state law."
It is a Republic or is supposed to be. And in 2020 they did, as affirmed repeatedly in state and federal court

"When the voters fairly decide an election, pursuant to the rule of law, the losing candidate should acknowledge and respect the legitimacy of that election. And, if the voters choose to elect a new office-holder, our Nation should have a peaceful transfer of power." TRUE

"The election of 2020 like the election of 2016 was hard fought and, in many swing states, narrowly decided. The 2020 election, however, featured unprecedented allegations of voter fraud, violations and lax enforcement of election law, and other voting irregularities." see next

Several of the states Trump is talking about -- like Michigan and PA -- were closer in 2016. But then, the losing candidate conceded and didn't go on with false and flimsy fraud allegations. What is unprecedented is Trump's false allegations about voter fraud and the GOP buy-in

My sincerest hope is that yesterday's abhorred invasion of white entitlement has taught the politicians who encouraged and enabled it that their political theatrics aren't a joke.

Lawmakers can incite a radical insurgency if they lie convincingly enough, but as lawmakers that insurgency will come for your heads after they've gotten bored attacking the marginalized people you unleashed them on.

Try to install a dictator and that dictator's rabid followers will put your heads on the chopping block right next to the rest of us.

As representatives, your jobs are to do whats best for all citizens. All of us whether you like us or not. That starts with putting an end to gridlock, revisionism, and blaming groups of marginalized people and the other side of the aisle.

Keeping the country stable takes compromise, not winning at all costs. We are your neighbors, not your enemies.
