Tapes!
BWA HA AH AHA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
Tapes with Trump and The Chair of the RNC trying to interfere with Michigan’s certification in 2020.
Uh huh.
From The Detroit News:
“Trump recorded pressuring Wayne County canvassers not to certify 2020 vote”:
Then-President Donald Trump personally pressured two Republican members of the Wayne County Board of Canvassers not to sign the certification of the 2020 presidential election, according to recordings reviewed by The Detroit News and revealed publicly for the first time.
On a Nov. 17, 2020, phone call, which also involved Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel, Trump told Monica Palmer and William Hartmann, the two GOP Wayne County canvassers, they’d look “terrible” if they signed the documents after they first voted in opposition and then later in the same meeting voted to approve certification of the county’s election results, according to the recordings.
“We’ve got to fight for our country,” said Trump on the recordings, made by a person who was present for the call with Palmer and Hartmann. “We can’t let these people take our country away from us.”
McDaniel, a Michigan native and the leader of the Republican Party nationally, said at another point in the call, “If you can go home tonight, do not sign it. … We will get you attorneys.”
To which Trump added: “We’ll take care of that.”
Palmer and Hartmann left the canvassers meeting without signing the official statement of votes for Wayne County, and the following day, they unsuccessfully attempted to rescind their votes in favor of certification, filing legal affidavits claiming they were pressured…
The News listened to audio that was captured in four recordings by someone present for the conversation between Trump and the canvassers. That information came to The News through an intermediary who also heard the recordings but who was not present when they were made. Sources presented the information to The News on the condition that they not be identified publicly for fear of retribution by the former president or his supporters.
The timestamp of the first recording was 9:55 p.m. Nov. 17, 2020. The time was consistent with Verizon phone records obtained by a U.S. House committee that showed Palmer received calls from McDaniel at 9:53 p.m. and 10:04 p.m…

As this news unfolds it’s worth reminding that in 2020 Michigan was first among the battlegrounds to go in the certification calendar. Had Trump succeeded in delaying or preventing a county or statewide certification in Michigan, that precedent would have been used to delay or block certification in Pennsylvania (which was certifying the following week), Georgia and so on, paving the way for the false slate of electors. We knew we were the first domino to go and that what Michigan did would impact the others.

Big deal. We knew these calls happened.We did not know they were recorded.
As we’ve seen in GA, a recording can have a significant ripple effect.
Michigan’s AG is still investigating efforts to overturn the 2020 election results there.

State after State after state.
NOT isolated incidents.
We have formed a PATTERN of CRIMINALITY.
It’s the 20th Anniversary of LOTR: Return of the King.
Having been a fanatic for these movies from the beginning, I think they stand up.
As a trilogy, three absolutely fantastic films that stand alone – marvelously. Together, they are still an epic cinematic achievement.
It’s been funny watching videos on TikTok of people who had been LOTR doubters, but, have since been converted.
I remember those cinematic experiences. Everything that I love about movies is wrapped up in that trilogy.
I love this actress.
She has been doing an arc on TikTok as Mrs. Claus.

A few weeks ago, she did an arc as a French bedbug who came to America and found love.😂

Why is the spouse of an insurrectionist allowed to decide the fate of another insurrectionist? If the Supreme Court had any real ethical standards, it would bar Clarence Thomas from all January 6 cases involving Donald Trump.

This is what nighttime looks like when you are 15 and you have severe long Covid. Not pictured on the other side of the curtain, the stream of patients and patient’s families (a metre away) who come and go from the room you have lived for months. Here you weep while you softly sing Fleetwood Mac and Harry Styles. You wait for friends to never call – they are at school and working at local cafes, all full of first loves and weekend house parties and beautifully naive existential crises. You, tube fed and bed bound, vomiting, pale with pain. You have disappeared.
Fund research into treatments for long Covid now.
