It’s amazing how the President actually gets his enemies to do the work of burying themselves.

In this audio, which of course the President knew was being taped (after years of leaks), the President gets the Georgia Secretary of State to own the faulty data. Raffensperger cannot claim he made a mistake.
It’s a sting. “Shredded ballots” and “took out machines” - “do you know anything about that? ‘Cause that’s illegal, right?”
How can the fake news claim that this audio is false? The answer is that they can’t. It comes from one of their own, The Washington Post.
Ryan Germany, General Counsel for Georgia’s Secretary of State, jumps in. “No, Dominion has not moved any machinery out of Fulton County.”

“But have they moved the inner parts?”

“Are you sure, Ryan?”
The lawyer could have said “I don’t know,” or “We’re looking into it” or even “We can never know for sure.”

But he said: “No.”
And again: “I’m sure.”

What a stupid thing to say.

You are never, ever “sure.”

Never.

That, right there, is the telltale.
Raffensperger reiterated his statement of earnest belief and the President, clearly speaking to the hidden microphone as well as to the man, explains his claim is not credible and therefore criminal.
*reiterates
So every person who shares this audio is actually sharing an audio reflecting that the election fraud occurred, the President knows it, and the Georgia Secretary of State should know but is actively attempting to suppress reality.
This behavior is clearly an attempt to preserve a status quo, meaning a flipped election, that a reasonable person would question sincerely.
In the face of a sincere question based on rational argument and clear and convincing data, an objective government official seeks to locate the truth, regardless of where the truth may land.
President Trump says he has information to the effect that they’re shredding ballots and moving machinery, that these are CRIMINAL ACTIVITIES, and furthermore that he is “NOTIFYING YOU [GA Secy of State] THAT YOU’RE LETTING IT HAPPEN.”
The rest of this is President Trump trying to give Raffensperger a way to avoid criminal prosecution.
Maybe you could argue that the President should not have been so kind.
But he is dealing with the law, and in the law, there is a standard that has to be met for a case to be won, and so I suppose he erred on the side of caution.

POTUS calling out the Justice Department as corrupt.


To be clear, I would distinguish between regular employees of the Justice Department and the decisions made officially. It's important to do this.

It is also worth noting that "federal agents can be sued for putting Muslim men on the no-fly list in alleged retaliation for their refusal to cooperate with counterterrorism

"The decision, a rare expansion of personal liability for law-enforcement misconduct, was one of four unanimous rulings the court issued Thursday"

"The court also found that there is no statute of limitations on when rape charges can be filed in the armed services"

global health policy in 2020 has centered around NPI's (non-pharmaceutical interventions) like distancing, masks, school closures

these have been sold as a way to stop infection as though this were science.

this was never true and that fact was known and knowable.

let's look.


above is the plot of social restriction and NPI vs total death per million. there is 0 R2. this means that the variables play no role in explaining one another.

we can see this same relationship between NPI and all cause deaths.

this is devastating to the case for NPI.


clearly, correlation is not proof of causality, but a total lack of correlation IS proof that there was no material causality.

barring massive and implausible coincidence, it's essentially impossible to cause something and not correlate to it, especially 51 times.

this would seem to pose some very serious questions for those claiming that lockdowns work, those basing policy upon them, and those claiming this is the side of science.

there is no science here nor any data. this is the febrile imaginings of discredited modelers.

this has been clear and obvious from all over the world since the beginning and had been proven so clearly by may that it's hard to imagine anyone who is actually conversant with the data still believing in these responses.

everyone got the same R
