GOP and the Big Lie

Does that mean Trump no longer has to pay for his legal fees? Not that he was ever going to pay them in the first place.

Lol Trump is once again an “unindicted co-conspirator” with no charges.

Still, this is a pretty big flip. One among numerous but pretty much guarantees we’ll see more people from AZ going to prison over the coup.

More evidence of 2020 election tampering

When can this be a topic that Harris/Walz should run on? Like “if you are on the fence on who to vote for and don’t want to deal with this bullshit from 2020 ever again, help us destroy Trump at the polls.”

I don’t know if that’s a winning strategy. Trump is still out whining at every single appearance about the stolen 2020 election, and I think most people except some 30% of the US who are diehard MAGA have realized it’s bullshit.

Harris may touch on this, but doesn’t need to seriously open up that can of worms. Let Grandpa Donald whine about 2020 while Harris and Walz focus on the future of the country.

January 6th would be a better topic to hit him on. While 2020 was clearly not stolen, there’s been enough mud thrown into the process that wading back into it is just a mess. January 6th was a much simpler event to hammer on. MAGAs like my MIL staunchly believe that it was a peaceful tour where people were arrested for political reasons after the FBI instigated violence, but most people saw it for what it was.

I wish any of the R candidates had won with a “no bullshit” campaign.

The insurrection was the worst of it, but in all we had to live through 5 years straight of endless childish bullshit.

I suppose most people just tune it out or don’t care, but I found it exhausting.

Up from Hillary’s estimate.

Fox doesn’t even retract this garbage now.

Rudy Giuliani texted the wrong number as he tried to persuade Michigan legislators to help overthrow the 2020 election.

“So I need you to pass a joint resolution from the legislature that states the election is in dispute, there’s an ongoing investigation by the legislature, and the Electors sent by Governor Whitmer are not the official electors of the state of Michigan and do not fall within the Safe Harbor deadline under Michigan law,” Giuliani wrote.

Prosecutors said Giuliani failed to send the message because “he put the wrong number into his phone,” prosecutors wrote.

I wonder if that was around the same time he booked the Four Seasons Total Landscaping (between the sex shop and the crematorium) for the press conference?

Tina Peters, 9 years for the big lie.

Always have to wonder how many of these dweebs actually believe their drivel, or are just saying the words because they’re going to prison anyway and “in for a penny, in for a pound.”

No reason to go to prison just to get out in 2033 and be shunned as the apostate who recanted their faith in Trump.

Maybe she hopes Trump wins and pardon’s her. Though I can’t recall if this is State or Federal crime.

It must be state because one article I read said this:

As late as January, Peters’ lawyers in a document filed with the U.S. appellate court in Denver said, “The Department of Justice, including the FBI, has continued its investigation to determine if any federal crime had been committed by Peters.”

It’s also state b/c there are pictures and footage of it, and those are barred from federal courts.

The wrong number got that message from Giuliani and thought it was spam or a phishing attempt. Little did they know, it was actually Rudy Giuliani. If spam texts weren’t a thing, they would have responded “wrong number”, and then …

My favorite part at about 4:45 while an officer is doing a body search,
Tina: “TSA isn’t this rough.”
Officer: “I’m not TSA.”

Bump, for Trump’s plan to contest the election:

Down-ballot are just as important, since those GOP/MAGA Congresscritters and state reps will try to fuck it all up, just like last time.

Is the Big Lie thread a good one for actual voter fraud when it’s by the party of the Big Lie? Don’t want to clog the main thread up.

CA landlord brags on Reddit that he stole and voted for Donald Trump with ballots of prior tenants. Lost his job, now being investigated for charges. For voting for Trump a few extra times. In California.
