Yep. Because facts and proof are just obstacles for these people. If any GOP offer evidence that the election was sound, they are immediately compromised in the minds of these weirdos. They chant terrible, violent things about their own party, if they dare speak the truth. Spooky.

The report is a small, obvious concession. The long game is voter suppression. So the GOP in Michigan pretend they are being all grown up about the election Trump lost by 8 million votes, while using “election integrity” to fiddle with access to the polls.

When I watched Joe sign the Juneteenth legislation and give the first pen to Opal Lee, it hit me that everything TFG signed was with a sharpie. He only used one instead of multiple pens like other presidents, and he always kept it when he was done, I guess because he's a greedy, selfish, racist shit-for-brains dickhead.

Related, and soon to be a Wonkette post, I'm sure: Rudy Giuliani's liscense to practice law has been suspended in New York over fraudulent election claims:

There was more "gray" going back before about 1800. At that stage, it's possible some inventors were stumbling across electricity or other things neither they nor their contemporaries understood. In that event, some may have failed to recognize the limits of their discoveries, while others may have willfully obscured any problems they encountered.

An AZ legislator has just introduced an amendment to the state budget (currently in the throes of being passed to turn Arizona into Kansas-on-the-Colodaro) to require ballots in Arizona have :

new security features on ballots, like holograms, hidden numbers visible only under ultraviolet and the use of thermochromic, tri-thermochromic, photochromic or optically variable inks.

Because we have *such* a problem with "counterfeit ballots".

When the MAGAt's come for us with their machetes and gasoline bombs it will feel anything but 'fictional.

They are deadly serious about Rwanda-izing the US. An OAN reporter openly called for the execution of 'tens of thousands' of people for the crime of...not voting for trump, more or less.

He fucked around and found out.

No, but having to spend a whole lot more money to print ballots will definitely mean that *some* polling places will be closed.

It’s funny that of all the VOTER FRAUDS that Republicans are absolutely convinced of, exactly zero re-elected Republicans have suggested their own elections should get a do-over.

No the CueCat was an amazing bit of gear. Utterly useless for it's intended purpose, of course, but hardware hackers loved it: free barcode reader, back when they were not relatively available.

It's like most conspiracy theories.The number of people who would be involved in these projects, like faking the moon landing or 9/11 being an inside job*, would number in the thousands, if not tens of thousands, and yet no one ever goes off the reservation and spills the beans in a credible fashion.

I don't think my dude really wants to get the actual answers to his "questions." He's not gonna come out with his heinie shiny. Regardless of how crisply he pronounces the second "t" in "traitors."
