BC GOVERNMENT
Saved by @CodyyyGardner

gonna live tweet this.

Mark Meadows explains at the beginning that Cleta is not attorney of record but she's been involved.

 Trump (who lied abt his inauguration size) says he knows he won bc of rally size.
Trump starts by describing that current margin is what "everyone agrees on."
Trump repeatedly claims that people went to vote but weren't allowed to bc a ballot already cast.

Maybe ... they had already voted? I think he just narced out a bunch of people trying to double vote.
Trump accuses "Ruby Freeman" of being a vote hustler.
"No Republican poll watcher, No Democrat ones."

He doesn't actually understand that poll watchers are optional.
Trump now describing the suitcases of votes as if he's seen them.

Also describing slo-mo tape showing 18,000 votes all for Biden.
Trump complaining abt drop boxes that were picked up. He had no such complaint abt CA GOPers doing this.
Trump said "we held the Senate and we won the House."
He doesn't realize this, but he's explaining that he underperformed the rest of the ballot.
Trump keeps chanting that number, 11,779, as if he's had nightmares about it every night.
Trump can't decide whether they're burning or shredding ballots.

He's sure just the Dominion machines are being altered, tho.
Trump claims many of the numbers of his imaginary friends' votes will be certified.
TRump: We have other states that I believe will be flipping to us shortly.

Then starts talking about Detroit.

cc: @dananessel
@dananessel Trump claiming a "tremendous number of dead people" in MI voted.
Now Trump complaining that people cast a provisional ballot.
"Far more is certified than we need," Trump says to the dude whose job is to certify the vote.
Some Trump dude now asking for a "Compromise to find a path forward that's less litigious."

Because after losing 60 times, they're beginning to cop on.
GA officials now laying out how many times they've explained away Trump's numbers.
The "some dude" was Mark Meadows.

Which Trump IDs for me which is awesome.
Trump: we only lost the state by that number, 11,000 votes. 11,779.

We don't have to go through each [issue]. What's the difference between winning by 2 votes and winning by 2 million votes?
Trump: I could tell you by our rallies. I could tell you by the rally I'm having Monday night. No way.
Trump again claims they've got certified votes, to the guy whose job is to certify the votes.

"We have won this election in Georgia."
"All exact numbers done by accounting firms, law firms, etcetera."

BR: The challenge you have is that the data is wrong.
Cleta: What we said was, if you read our petition, it says we took names and birth years, certain information, we have asked from your office for records only you have.
Cleta: We don't have the records that you have. One of the things we have been suggesting for weeks now is for you to make available the records that would make ...

Trump interrupts. "In one state we have a tremendous number of dead people. I'm sure we do in GA too."
Trump: Brad, We have a new tape that we're going to release.

[Brad to self: So do I]
BR: You're talking about State Farm video. Giuliani or whoever spliced and diced that video.
Trump complaining again that there were no "Democrat" poll watchers.

Said the video was reviewed by "police and other professional people."
Trump beginning to slur.

BR: Mr. President, we did an audit of that and proved conclusively they were not scanned three times.
Basically Trump is frantically describing a video Rudy doctored to show him, and Raffersperger is patiently trying to explain that he's watching disinformation.

BR: WE'll send you the link from [the TV station]
Trump: Nobody can make a case for that [that is, reality], you'd have to be a child, just a chid.

Ryan German: We had our officers, GBI, as well as FBI agents.

Trump: Dishonesty or incompetence.
BR going through people moving out of GA then moved back.

Trump: How many people do that? They missed it? [laughs]

Trump of course was arguably ineligible to vote in FL.
Cleta again complaining that GA not sharing info.

Trump: Cleta, a lot of it we don't need. They should share it. We don't need it .
Trump asking if they removed parts of Dominion machines.

RG: No. I'm sure.
BR: THe problem with social media is people can say anything.

Trump: Nah, it's Trump media.
Trump now complaining that GA reviewed the county of question. Now saying that "Stacey" (Abrams) is as dishonest as they come.
Listening to this call you can understand how Trump gave so many people COVID bc he's spitting everywhere as he gets more excited.
Trump now asking for GA to let his campaign do signature verification themselves.
Trump: Fulton County is so corrupt and so is she.

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
Trump: It's [alleged shredding of ballots] more illegal for you than it is for them. You can't let that happen.
TrumpL I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, bc we won the state. Flipping the state is a great testament to our country.
Here's the transcript. https://t.co/noygKjXnTH
Weird reverb at this point in the call, which Trump notes.
Trump: Do you have provisional ballots, Brad?

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.
Trump now complaining that a batch of military ballots came in that were 100% Biden. Even though Trump won military vote by a lot.

As GA tries to figure out WTF, Cleta interrupts.

Trump: I'm not asking you Cleta, honestly.
BR now explaining that overseas voters vote for Democrats.

Trump: I get votes overseas too, Ryan, in all fairness. 100% for Biden. That is criminal. Many criminal events here.
Trump: I have to find 12,000 votes, and I have them by a lot, and we won the state.
Trump: Fellas, I need 11,000 votes. Give me a break.

Oh huh. Trump's defense isn't going to address the impeachment case (and seems to ignore his demands of Mike Pence again).

Michael Van der Veen pretending that 61 losses is normal.

And, again, note that he didn't address Trump's unconstitutional request of Mike Pence.

Van der Veen lies about who asked for recounts in 2016.

And lies about Hillary's claims about Russia.

Trump's video is made in the style of propaganda, taken out of context.

Van der Veen now trying to make much of tweets Trump didn't send until hours too late.

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.

Tuning into the McCabe hearing.

Lindsey Graham is still boasting that CIA unmasked Hillary long before they unmasked Mike Flynn. He's legit complaining that Hillary ran a campaign and the CIA didn't

Whitehouse now explaining to Lindsey Graham that tying an opponent to a foreign country is not a criminal act. "If you look at CI investigation, obvious difference is that there were contacts bt RU intel operatives and campaign operatives."

"I don't think the FBI has any business interfering into that kind of campaign debate, you would be besides yourself with anger if FBI investigated Trump for trying to tie Biden to China."

Now Graham is talking about how Coffee Boy said working with Russia would be treason which 1) means that he thinks Roger Stone committed treason and 2) he demonstrably lied in that interview.

Now Lindsey claiming that the dossier created the impression that Trump was in bed with Russia, and not his open requests for Russian help.

This talks about the superseding CFAA charge that Assange boosters are generally silent or worse about.

My account in @thewire_in of meeting Muskan and Rashid, victims of a series of violent acts by the Bajrang Dal, and by a range of UP government authorities including the police, shelter home and hospital.

Advised by @SartajAlamIndia Muskan was taken to Bijnor, where she got an ultrasound done at a private clinic. The report shows that there are “retained products of conception” (foetal matter left over after a miscarriage or abortion) in her uterus.

The hospital denies causing Muskan to miscarry – but their denial rings false. They declared no miscarriage had occurred – which is now proven to be a lie. Most shockingly, in actions that befit a Mengele, they did not prescribe any antibiotics to Muskan after the miscarriage.

See how calm, confident Muskan is in the face of Bajrang Dal thugs: asked on camera if her father or “guardian” has given her permission to marry Rashid, she replies, “I am an adult, I am 22, I have married him of my own choice five months ago.”

Muskan told me: “I am an adult, know my own mind, was living on my own when I met Rashid. I knew he was Muslim. We loved each other. I converted to Islam of my own accord, & we married. My mother does not know him, she has just parroted whatever the Bajrang Dal men asked her to.”

In LEFT TO DIE, we document how families of the disappeared face a negligent and hostile Border Patrol search and rescue response system.

Lacking adequate government emergency services, many seek help from aid groups.

Border Patrol routinely obstructs these efforts. 🧵⬇️


Families often receive urgent calls from loved ones who are lost and in distress in the U.S.-Mexico borderlands, or from an eyewitness who was with them in the desert.

These calls can contain crucial details regarding the person’s location and medical condition.


Faced with an inadequate and discriminatory emergency response system controlled by Border Patrol, family members take on the monumental work of acting as emergency first responders.

Here’s a partial list of actions family members have taken to locate their missing loved ones...


1. Repeatedly calling police, Border Patrol, ICE offices, hospitals, detention centers, morgues, immigration attorneys, non-profits, and news outlets.


2. Taking out missing persons ads, putting up posters, searching and posting on the Internet, in hopes of hearing word of their loved ones whereabouts.

@ProjectLincoln @tedcruz Texas failed to winterize its generation sources the last time this happened in 2011.

Now ask yourself, why?

Simple. Texas's extended power outage is a result of negligent GOP infrastructure policy.

THREAD.


@tedcruz The Texas GOP has continuously rebuffed plans to invest in better infrastructure to upgrade TX power grids.

Texas was warned to weatherize power plants.

Why didn’t they?

@tedcruz TX power companies said electricity prices are too low to provide incentives (profit) to build new plants or improve older ones. (a result of privatization of basic services.)

@tedcruz The electrical grid in Texas was deregulated, privatized, and removed from interconnected networks to avoid federal regulation and increase profits for a small number of wealthy individuals.

Go figure.

@tedcruz If TX ERCOT grid was on the national grid, or simply reinvested in their privatized infrastructure, they'd be fine by now.

They did neither, b/c it wasn't profitable.

It's a failure of TX leadership –– total, inexcusable, and utterly catastrophic.

Not fucking windmills.

One thing that goes unremarked about Wikipedia: the vast majority of the content was written over 12 years ago—which means (given turnover) that the editors dominant today were not directly involved in that creation.

Put another way, the editors who built the dominant nodes in this network...


...have little overlap with the ones who made this much more recent managerial flowchart.


Internet time runs at hundred-fold speed—the difference between the people who painted what's in the Uffizi, and the people in charge of keeping those paintings from deteriorating. Very different tasks, and (one presumes) very personalities as well. @PaulSkallas?

I present to you all, my (possibly) superthread On how and why the Unknown God from Genshin Impact, and The Herrscher of Void/God Kiana/Sirin from Honkai Impact!

First off! We’ll start with the obvious things that constitute a possible connection.

They share the same Japanese Voice actress! Rie Kugimiya.
Usually this is a stretch reason, but considering everything else, it’s not unlikely that it’s the same character.

Secondly, their Appearances.
The both have very long white hair with identical bang style, and a very noticeable small piece of hair on top that curls upwards. That’s a defining part Of all of Kiana’s hairstyles, and for it to be shared with this god says something.


Another notable thing is their eyes. They both have Glowing golden eyes with very similar appearances. They contain a ring, and a 4-point star pupil. Resemblant of a scope if you will. That’s The Herrscher of Void’s defining characteristic


If you’d even like to take a look at their outfits, there’s resemblances including the black fur collar, the designs on the torso and chest, and the use of something similar to coat tails/skirt. The Herrscher can change their outfit and they aren’t stuck with one. Sirin does this
