“New filings claim there was a Plan B the militiamen had drawn up, that involved a takeover of the Michigan capitol building by 200 combatants who would stage a week-long series of televised executions of public officials.” https://t.co/oFU8Yng1ou

Rudy lies about stolen elections in order to steal the election

If you thought Rudy Giuliani’s conspiracies were insane, here comes Sindey Powell crashing through Leeroy Jenkins-syle to spin a tale about Huge Chavez and George Soros working together to steal millions of votes via voting machines and software. pic.twitter.com/Ky5ALhjSsl

Does anyone doubt at this point that if the election had come down to one close state, a GOP legislature would happily help steal it by appointing electors in defiance of the will of the voters, and most elected Republicans would publicly back the move?https://t.co/2ZChzmS4Q9 pic.twitter.com/AXBqZASzDo

Scary times
SCOOP: The Pentagon’s acting policy chief, James Anderson, resigned on Tuesday after falling out of favor with the White House. He pushed back on several Trump loyalists the White House tried to install at DoD. (w/ @laraseligman) https://t.co/AULFGghUkD

In the last 24 hours, the Secretary of Defense (SecDef), the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy (USD-P), and the Under Secretary of Defense for Intell (OUSD-I) have been sacked. Trump loyalist now sit in the 1, 3, and 4 slots at DOD. Kash Patel is DOD Chief of Staff. Why?

Dizzying day at DoD. Out: Policy chief James Anderson, UnderSec for Intel Joseph Kernan, Esper's Chief of Staff Jen Stewart

IN: Ezra Cohen-Watnick, Acting UnderSec Intel, also Kash Patel as CoS. Patel and Watnick both central to Devin Nunes efforts
For those keeping score, Patel is the second former Nunes aide to be named to a senior national security post in as many days, after Michael Ellis was tapped for the NSA general counsel job. Both are views by Democrats as brazen political operatives.https://t.co/uE2zsMJk1G

2 dead in Kenosha
And apparently it just… happened! There was a result! They were all out after the curfew, it wasn’t that a 17-year-old white militia members has an assault weapon and murdered two people in cold blood. Who can say? “Persons were shot.” Yes, they were. By a white punk with an assault weapon.
Blaming the victims, this is pretty shocking

How can the sheriff characterize a 17 year old unlawfully carrying a weapon (18 is the legal age) “attempting to resolve the conflict.”

Rittenhouse lives in Illinois. How are armed insurrectionists organizing and learning about calls to action in places like in Kenosha? On Facebook. https://t.co/04hq0nJ5s2

A white 17 y/o w/ a shotgun kills 2 people. Cops show up. People scream that he shot people. White teen puts his arms up, thinking he’s being arrested. Cops pass him by even though he’s holding a shotgun. He keeps walking & goes on his way. https://t.co/mF90wroeKV

This appears to be the Tik Tok account belonging to Kyle Rittenhouse. He’s a misogynist and a Trump supporter. Waiting for you and other Republicans to fully and unequivocally condemn the rioting and murders in Kenosha. https://t.co/4ZCJpJ8ctm pic.twitter.com/rMjxo8gaqG

Cell phone footage shows Kenosha police telling armed insurrectionists, “We appreciate you guys. We really do,” and giving them bottles of water. Shortly after this video was taken, one of these men shot and killed two protesters and wounded another.

Business as usual
The Environmental Protection Agency illegally destroyed records, deceived the National Archives and Records Administration about that destruction, and falsely blamed the coronavirus pandemic to escape accountability.

How many times do I have to say this?
Facebook was working with Trump to help him get elected:
This is BREAKING and extremely well-written and investigated.

Tl;dr — since 2015, Facebook hand-crafted its policies to ensure Trump never violates them.
Zuckerberg also personally consults with Trump to guide his messaging.https://t.co/rhY4DYisnJ

The firewall
I think Roberts's enablers have made clear to him that he shouldn't care. They're all in on permanent GOP rule. If he can preserve that with a fig leaf of semi-respectability, great. If not, preserving it is the priority. The other FedSoccers don't care.https://t.co/6IFx3yGFqj
