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
McCabe should note that Flynn admitted to knowing it's a crime to lie to the FBI, under oath.
Lee: You threatened to elevate Flynn's call with Kislyak to General Counsel if he got counsel.
McCabe: Premise of question absolutely false. Did not threaten Flynn.
Um. The problems were in the 2nd and 3rd renewals, dummy.
It'd be helpful if he understood it first.
McCabe: No sir, we found the kind of direct contact that we were looking for.
Cruz: Logan Act.
McCabe: We didn't use the Logan Act.
McCabe tries to correct him.
Cruz cut him off. He continues to cut him off.
McCabe: When we initiated case against Flynn.
Cruz interrupts again.
Lindsey: The Biden Administration, believing they have won.
THE WEEK that they gave the generalized one, Mike Flynn was secretly inking a contract with Turkey, while getting a classified briefing.
McCabe: I've never met him.
Blackburn: I think you've known him for two decades.
Curious.

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.

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.

It is tested exquisitely with a hypersensitive non-specific RT-PCR test / Ct >35 (>30 is nonsense, >35 is madness), without considering Ct and clinical context. This means that more acute respiratory infections are reclassified as

The Drosten RT-PCR test is fabricated in a way that each country and laboratory perform it differently at too high Ct and that the high rate of false positives increases massively due to cross-reaction with other (corona) viruses in the "flu

Even asymptomatic, previously called healthy, people are tested (en masse) in this way, although there is no epidemiologically relevant asymptomatic transmission. This means that even healthy people are declared as COVID

Deaths within 28 days after a positive RT-PCR test from whatever cause are designated as deaths WITH COVID. This means that other causes of death are reclassified as
