@GlennGattis1 @toddstarnes How many factual lies can you pack into one tweet> The Trump team had 4 cases in Pennsylvania alone.

In most cases Trump's own lawyers disclaimed any fraud in their own court cases.

Trump's handpicked judges excoriated him worse than any others. /1

@JoeGebhardt2 @GlennGattis1 @toddstarnes First: Trump sued over Philly counting 5 categories of mail in ballots.

They appealed all the way to the PA Supreme Court.

They lost. https://t.co/bQprvfqDvk /2
@JoeGebhardt2 @GlennGattis1 @toddstarnes 2nd: Trump sued Bucks County for counting ballots they thought were deficient.

They appealed that decision and lost. And the PA SC denied the appeal without comment.

@JoeGebhardt2 @GlennGattis1 @toddstarnes 3rd, Trump sued Montgomery County to stop them from counting mail-in ballots.

Trump didn't dispute the facts at all. **STIPULATED** to common facts.

Then they abandoned the appeal. /4
@JoeGebhardt2 @GlennGattis1 @toddstarnes 4th, Trump famously sued in Federal Court challenging the results of the election. And, as luck would have it, they were assigned a conservative Judge who was a member of the Federalist Society.

Rudy, however, when faced with the prospect of lying to a Federal Judge . . . /5
@JoeGebhardt2 @GlennGattis1 @toddstarnes Rudy hung his head and admitted that "this isn't a fraud case." So they abandoned the fraud issue at oral argument.

The Judge ripped Trump a new one in his opinion.

@JoeGebhardt2 @GlennGattis1 @toddstarnes Gluttons for punishment, Trump appealed to the 3rd Circuit. Amazingly, the were assigned a panel with a judge Trump Himself appointed to the bench.

Judge Bibas humiliated Team Trump even worse.

@JoeGebhardt2 @GlennGattis1 @toddstarnes So that's 4 Trump cases in PA alone. All losers. None of which presented any evidence of fraud the courts would find persuasive.

That's one State. Should I do the rest? Because it will be more of the same. Time and time again.

He lost. Bigly. /end

These people weren't murdered. They were legally executed after convictions for horrendous crimes, being sentenced to the death penalty, and going through countless appeals.


You can oppose the death penalty as a punishment without pretending that the people executed were victims or that carrying out those executions is comparable to murder.

As an example: Daniel Lee was a white supremacist who murdered a family (including an 8-year-old girl) by suffocating them with bags and then dumping their bodies in a swamp.

That's whose name @CoriBush wants you to remember.

Wesley Purkey admitted to kidnapping, raping, and then murdering a 16-year-old girl named Jennifer Long. He then dismembered her body. He also beat an 80-year-old woman to death.

Maybe we should learn the names of his victims instead, @CoriBush?

Dustin Honken was a meth dealer that murdered 5 people, including 2 girls under the age of 11, because their dad was set to testify against him on drug charges. He was specifically sentenced to death for killing the 2 kids.
This is also the Rochester Police - dreadful mishandling of an altered mental status call - which led to their current crisis team, which was unavailable (and they didn't wait for in a low threat situation as they could have) for this 9 y/o!

In both cases there is a failure to use good judgement, make a valid threat assessment, to match in force to situation, failure to choose to wait for safer and appropriate staff/conditions and to use their time wisely. They also treat 'perp' as more object than human.

By the way... Rochester is near Buffalo - where this happened...
