You know what would be interesting? If John Oliver devoted a show to election security. Maybe he will some day.
Let me just point out that the only possible explanation here is that I have psychic powers.

Please send money and I will send you my stock tips.
The @LastWeekTonight segment on voting security is up on the Youtubes.

Thos video nicely, if inadvertently, shows how “hybrid” ballot marking devices (where the voter doesn’t actually touch their printed ballots) are essentially no different from DREs with VVPATs, with all the same weaknesses.
Ballot marking devices are somewhat controversial, but this design os particularly egregious.
If your jurisdiction is using devices like this in tomorrow’s election perhaps the single most important thing you can do to help ensure the integrity of the vote is remind your fellow voters how important it is to check the printout.

I’ve said this before, I’ll say it again: paper ballots (preferably hand marked, given current technology), plus mandatory Risk Limiting Audits (RLAs), plus significantly increased funding for local election offices are the most important security improvements to advocate for. 1/
A minor wrinkle in this are paper ballot systems that require the use of “Ballot Marking Devices”. Current ballot marking devices have known vulnerabilities that could allow them to be tampered with in a way that could misprint ballots. 2/
BMDs depend on voters verifying the printout, which most probably don’t. BMD-based systems increase risk, and I recommend against them. But this is a relatively small issue compared with paper, audits and infrastructure protection, which we need whether or nor BMDs are used. 3/

Oh my god, they actually changed the name of this movie. I demand an associate producer credit.
This production was largely shot on my block in Philly. They had a light pointed directly at my bedroom window every night for over a week.
Here’s a shot from the production. Spoiler alert: it’s apparently an action movie.

1. Chuck Grassley sends letter to ICIG Michael Atkinson asking for an explanation as to why the watchdog hasn't said if it's investigating "a number of leaks of highly sensitive information" in recent years. Grassley also released several previously unpublished Strzok texts.
2. Grassley specifically asked the ICIG why Strzok texted Lisa Page on Dec. 15, 2016: "Think our sisters have begun leaking like mad. Scorned and worried and political, they're kicking in to overdrive."
3. Grassley asked: "What are they worried about, and what are they kicking into 'overdrive?' "Who are the 'sisters,' and what does it mean to say that the 'sisters have [been] leaking like mad'?"

Thread.
One man's comments on aspects of the book 'Cardinal: The Rise and Fall of George Pell' by @milliganreports, because I think it's not all that.

First, for a substantial review of the book, read Julia Yost. firstthings.com/web-exclusives…
She calls it a "semi-literate regurgitation of police theories". Elsewhere I've seen it described as "airport trash". I agree with both of these comments.

firstthings.com/web-exclusives…
Milligan often uses the phrase "Pell defender" on Twitter.
I think Pell should have been found not guilty based on what we know of the evidence in this case: in that I'm defending the integrity of the Victorian justice system. I think Pell should have had a judge-only trial.

The #bullshit that @thedemocrats are #dropping like #deuces is truly preposterous.

Last week, following the lamentable hearing that established the apparent mental decline of Robert #Mueller, @chuckschumer tried to set a trap for @senatemajldr Mitch McConnell.
The normal practice of the Senate as to consideration of proposed legislation is for the proposed bill to be read aloud (or reading waived) and then for the bill to be sent for consideration by one or more Senate committees that have jurisdiction over the subject of the bill.
One of the bills that @thedemocrats and the #lapdancemedia have described as having been blocked by McConnell addressed certain requirements for the use and retention of paper ballots and voting records and providing funding for the #ElectionSecurityCommission to make grants.

Somehow I'm awake and ready to live tweet this upcoming circus. Let's do this...
#MuellerHearing
Mueller about to be sworn in. He's shaky and old. Dottering is the word choice I'd use to describe Mr. Mueller's presence as he waits to be sworn in.
Judiciary Committee is up first, which means loads of Mr. Nadler and his gut.

1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.
