Meanwhile, China can't seem to stop throwing its citizen journalists in jail. Never mind the Muslim concentration camps.

✅💥✅💥 Situation Update, Dec. 8th – All ballots after Nov. 3rd are NULL AND VOID; Texas files lawsuit with SCOTUS to nullify rigged elections in FOUR swing states

💥 👉 Today’s Situation Update covers the bombshells now getting catapulted into the election battle,
[M. Adams]

Important Context:
What have you learned about HUMA?
What organization is HUMA?

Why is this relevant?
What year(s) did this occur?
Who funded on behalf this President?

1. Texas is trying to sue PA, GA, MI, and WI to challenge their election results *directly* in #SCOTUS.

How can it do that, how does that work, and is this going anywhere?

Here's a quick #thread on the apex of legal arcana:

The U.S. Supreme Court's "original jurisdiction."

2. One of the reasons *why* the Founders created a Supreme Court was to resolve interstate disputes (e.g., over borders, water rights, etc.).

Because lower courts might be biased, #SCOTUS was given "original" jurisdiction in such cases — allowing such suits to *start* there.

3. And today, in suits between states, #SCOTUS's original jurisdiction is *exclusive,* meaning that lower state and federal courts *lack* the power to hear disputes between two or more

4. But the Court has long understood "exclusive" to *not* mean "mandatory," even though some Justices (such as Justice Thomas) believe that it is.

Instead, states must seek "leave to file" an original bill of complaint, and such a motion is *not* granted as a matter of course.

5. One of the factors the Justices look to is whether the *issues* in the case can be resolved in other cases in the lower courts, even if not between the same parties. Thus, the Court usually denies leave unless it's a *uniquely* state-state dispute (again, like borders/water).

1. Justice Stephen Breyer was nominated by Pres. Bill Clinton on May 17, 1994 and has served since August 3, 1994.

2. "He (Breyer) insists that although decisions of foreign courts are not binding on U.S. courts, they could be “instructive,” and American judges should be free to cite and apply foreign law in cases which come before

3. Justice Breyer is married to Joanna Hare.

4. "Her family is also enormously wealthy, having started the Pearson group, which today is a media empire run by Joanna's older brother, Michael J Hare.. A Apr1994 financial disclosure statement, the Breyers list ownership of $2,324,958 in PEARSON

5. "The Breyers vacation at a rustic 320 acre retreat in New Hampshire, as well as having access to a house owned by Joanna Breyer's mother on the island of St. Kitts in the Caribbean."

1/ There's been lots of speculation about why Antrim County, MI initially reported incorrect results on Wed. The results have since been corrected, but people are naturally wondering what happened. Here's the likely technical explanation and my assessment.

Thread – Possible American Dystopias in 2021

1. Dystopia: an imagined place or state in which everything is unpleasant or bad, typically a totalitarian or environmentally degraded one.

2. I read an article the other day that predicted future dystopian possibilities in the US given all that we have seen and what has transpired in 2020. Talk about thought-provoking and frightening! Here are some excerpts.

3.

The general election of 2020 will be the stuff of argument and analysis for many years to come, here and abroad.

3A. Suffice to say here that a panicky over-reaction to the onset of the COVID-19 virus produced economic hardship and social disorder, compounded by months of riots, looting and arson afflicting hundreds of cities (almost all Democrat-governed) beginning in late May 2020.

3B. All of this set the stage for an election won overwhelmingly on November 3rd by President Donald Trump and lost by him in the following weeks to his Democrat opponent.

Here are 10 questions I'm loosing sleep over regarding asylum at the border:

1) What process will the Biden administration put in place to help those who are already in MPP and have been waiting in danger in Mexico for a long time? Will it use parole for those with pending cases? What of those ordered removed and deported in abstentia?

2) Will the administration lift or change the CDC order so that asylum seekers can seek protection at the border?

3) If yes, will it rely on metering? Will it rely on swift screening that does not provide adequate due process? Will it shift away from detention?

4) There are many asylum seekers stranded in Mexico who were metered or expelled. Will there be any redress for them? Many of these folks are from Central America but many also from elsewhere--especially from Africa and Haiti (not subject to MPP).

5) How will the U.S. work with UNHCR, Mexico, local U.S. officials, and NGOs on both sides of the border to really make needed changes so that we turn the page on reception?

So, let's recap:
1. Probably through cheating, we "elected" a grifter fool slimebag white supremacist four years ago.
2. He immediately started us down the road to fascism via the news station controlled by what was once the Republicans but now the Fascist Party.

3. They did both evil racist things, like starting concentration camps and ignoring natural disasters in places where there were ppl of color and working to remove health care from everyone because people of color might get healthcare too.

4. So both evil racist things and also inexplicably stupid things like gutting the Clean Air and Water Act, trying to destroy as much wildlife as possible and deciding destroying the entire planet wld be a neat idea.

5. The people fought back hard for the healthcare and the states where more non-fascists lived did their part by marching peacefully, calling their reps daily, and running for office. The busiest group among these were women of color.

6. Meanwhile, a lot of weird things happen, including events where troops died and Twitler 2.0 lied every single day while looking lustfully at his daughter (which will always be super gross--people voted for a man who openly said he was sexually attracted to his own child)

1) Have given some thoughts on a new party. Using MN DFL as an example, I think each state should have a Patriot Party, and there should be a national party called AMERICA FIRST PARTY.

2) In practice, Michigan Patriot Party fields its statewide candidates and...

Warning. With remote access to e-poll books (yes, vendors have it & I’m told they pass around a url to watch), bad actors cld track in real time how many votes they need & where to alter election outcomes. This wld NOT work w/ vote by mail. 1/

I remain very concerned about e-pollbooks, which have exploded in use since 2016. A former election official told me about the Election Day remote access & URL. 2/

I wrote about America’s largest e-pollbook vendor, Knowink, here. Knowink is managed by a former Republican election official. It’s product manager is Religious Right. It’s products are in 23 states now. 3/

I was told about the passing around of a URL re: Tenex. They can watch voters sign in as they sign in. They can tell what party they are from. 4/

In theory, w/ e-pollbooks (electronic sign ins), bad actors cld fraudulently sign in real voters who rarely vote in order to pad vote totals. This wld work best at the end of Election Day. Mail voting wld obviously throw this off. 5/

A few people are suggesting that the impeachment delay is necessary and unavoidable because of the time it takes to whip votes (make sure that the votes are there and the shakier edges of the coalition are firmed up).

This may well be true.

But as ever, messaging matters.

Georgia GOP and Trump campaign's suit in Chatham County is in court this morning.

GOP witness conceded that he did not know whether a stack of 53 challenged ballots were received on time.

The board's witness testified they were.

Background:

You can follow along with the hearing here.

Trump's Michigan suit also heads to a speedy hearing today at 11:30 p.m. Eastern Time, per a new order.

We'll be on top of them both at @LawCrimeNews.

Meanwhile in the Georgia case:

Sabrina German, the director of Chatham County's Voter Registration Office, backs up the prior witness's testimony that those 53 ballots were received on time.

None of them were double votes, she said.

Jeff Harris, from the Democratic Party of Georgia, notes both of the GOP witnesses conceded they had no idea about when those 53 ballots were received.

"They have been flatly incapable of proffering competent evidence to prove that point."

READ THIS: "I am a pollster and I find this election to be deeply puzzling."

1. "President Trump received more votes than any previous incumbent seeking reelection. He got 11 million more votes than in 2016, the third largest rise in support ever for an incumbent." [Thread 1/13]

@NPR your story “Trump Supporters Storm U.S. Capitol, Clash With Police” is date-stamped January 6, 2021 at 9:30 AM, which is 2.5 hours BEFORE President Trump spoke at the Ellipse and 4 hours BEFORE any procession to the Capitol. #fakenews

January 6, 2021, at 11:44 AM Eastern Time: The President arrives to speak.

January 6, 2021 at 12:05 PM, an hour past the scheduled start time, the President took to the podium. Again, your story was posted before anything happened. Why and how?

The crowd was reverent, not violent, mostly taking photos to capture the historic moment after waiting in frigid weather for so long.

During his speech, @POTUS says “I will march with you to the Capitol.” Here are 4 images of the President during that speech. He clearly told the crowd they would go together, peacefully but firmly, to make sure Congress did its job.
