Could come out of this litigation is to find out who planted ruby freemans make in his ear, who in georgia and who in the white house convinced them on that phone call to target her. because that phone call remains one of the biggest smoking gun pieces of evidence in any kind of legal battle against trump about trying to overturn the election in georgia more broadly and whether he fomented electoral fraud there and theres a case pursuing that right now down there as we all know. i think -- i thi...

Has been uncovered through recounts, audits and court cases. that isnt about the debunked myth of voter fraud. this is about a group of republicans using the ex-presidents big lie to amass just enough power over the mechanisms of our elections and bend them in his favor should he decide to formally run in 2024, which is he increasingly expected to do. lets connect the dots of what republicans are trying to accomplish here. we have seen them push a wave of laws restricting access to the ballot bo...

Goes all the way back to the first year of the pandemic, and the trump administration. i was at enough trump rallies and you were there, too, where the former president would routinely go after anthony fauci, and clearly, his acolytes in the senate are continuing to carry that torch in hearings just like this. beyond that, though, something that senator romney pointed out during this hearing was that these scientists who were sitting before them were being asked to apply science to political spa...

Acolytes kissing his butt because thats what they always do. everyone else is like blah blah blah on the whole thing. couple things, some of the absurdities in this speech. he out performed expectations? wait, what? thats like saying like this fighter sucks so bad we expect him to lose 30 seconds in the first round, pete. and he made it 50 and everybody is taking a victory lap like man, this guy is great. he made it 20 seconds more than we thought. out performed expectations. second, he has no a...

Id. although i have to say, if you are on this mailing list, which i am, its astonishing the marketing machine that he has. i must get 20 or 30 emails trying to raise money. but as gibbs pointed out the problem for republicans is, they cant live without him in the primary and they cant live without him -- political morning council poll shows just how deep the problem is. joe biden is probably as low as he can possibly be in his presidency -- its possible to get lower, but not much. and yet, when...
