1/ How have we come to this, teetering on the precipice of a political extinction event? The Electoral Certification challenge will certainly fail but immoral political theater is damning. And also a victory. For stupidity, naked greed, personal ambition, raw power.
2/ In which cynical propaganda has superseded campaigning and fund-raising as the most effective political tools. In which endless shit-trains of conspiratorial nonsense cannot be differentiated from policy, from McCain’s bus or RFK entreating crowds on a whistle-stop tour.
3/ Why do we assume we've evolved? The leaders of Babylon similarly ran their society, culture, empire, and the verdant Eden that surrounded them into the ground, sheerly out of greed and willful ignorance. It is now Iraq, a pit of sand and blood and unabated violence.

Tomorrow, the United Senate Committee on Homeland Security & Government Affairs will holding a hearing entitled," Examining Irregularities in the 2020 Election", and a few points are worth making in advance of the hearing. hsgac.senate.gov/examining-irre…
1/ While the witness list includes @C_C_Krebs and @VotingGuy, both of whom played important roles in helping secure #election2020, it includes no others who serve on the front lines of elections, such as state and local election officials, vendors, and other federal partners.
2/Any unverified claims of election irregularities should be viewed with a healthy dose of skepticism. Look no further than the recent committee hearings held in the Georgia General Assembly for affirmation of this principle. gpb.org/news/2020/12/1…

For the unelected Republicans pretending to cast alternative elector slates in WI, PA, GA, and MI - you may be committing a crime 1/
Whoever falsely assumes or pretends to be an officer or employee acting under the authority of the United States or any department, agency or officer thereof, and acts as such, . . . shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both. 18 USC 912.
Only the electors who won on November 3 are acting under authority of Article II of the Constitution. The fake Republican electors today are "falsely assum[ing] or pretend[ing]" to be electors. That's unlawful. #ElectoralCollegeVote #RuleOfLaw #ElectoralCollege
