So I’ve looked at everything I can find, taking into account what counties haven’t reported & how things were trending, etc., & as of 4pm today I think where we actually stand is here 👇🏻. I’ll give you the scenarios, but overall, either man could still win at this point./1

AZ looks to be very close. We should get their final before PA. To my eye, the counties & trend favor DJT, but most of the outstanding vote is early/provisional so the percentages could be different from my view. If DJT wins AZ, this is where we stand. /2

If Biden wins AZ, this is where we stand. /3

A Sunday post: The WWII Memorial folks have announced they'll be adding an etching to the Memorial of FDR's D-Day Prayer, which he broadcast on D-Day to the nation. I'm going to link-tweet it for you, but here is also a link to the entire prayer.

My fellow Americans: Last night, when I spoke with you about the fall of Rome, I knew at that moment that troops of the United States and our allies were crossing the Channel in another and greater operation. It has come to pass with success thus far. /2

And so, in this poignant hour, I ask you to join with me in prayer:

Almighty God: Our sons, pride of our Nation, this day have set upon a mighty endeavor, a struggle to preserve our Republic, our religion, and our civilization, and to set free a suffering humanity. /3

Rather than respond individually but repeatedly to (the same) comments to my ACB tweet, I've written a 1 time response.👇If you want to read it, fine. If you don't want to read it, don't read it.

I will pin this tweet for a while for folks to access it./1

I didn't address in my response a few of the things people frequently commented about my tweet because they were not talking about my tweet, but rather about my photograph/avatar. 🙄This tweet & the next three are "special instructions" for those special people. /2

The jacket & turtleneck in my pic are not gray; they are green. Get your monitor settings checked. 🙄Also, even if they were both gray, you are incorrect that gray on gray or monochromatic dressing is not a lovely look. /3

Flynn. So this is going to be a threat about the Motion to Disqualify that Sidney and team filed last week seeking to have Judge Sullivan remove himself from the case. /1

I'm going to talk about the pleading generally first - a high level takeaway - and also the timing issues and then I'll go through it and that lastly I'll talk about what will/can happen with it. /2

There has not been a ton of commentary on this pleading from lawyers. The reason for that is I think two fold: 1. It is sometimes difficult for lawyers to talk about whether a judge is misbehaving for fear of retaliation or for fear of saying something inappropriate themselves./3

Flynn. So there were filings today in Gen. Flynn's case by his counsel, by DOJ and by the amicus curiae, retired judge, Gleeson. I'll start with the easy stuff and work my way to the harder stuff. /1

First, Andy McCabe's lawyer, Michael Bromwich, (whom you may remember as part of Christine Blasey-Ford's legal team) sent a letter to Judge Sullivan a few days ago that Judge Sullivan ordered placecd on the docket. That is not uncommon for judges to do, btw. /2

@SidneyPowell1

So Bromwich's letter is a whiny screed about how - Oh. Mer. Gawd. - there are dates written on McCabe's notes that are not in his handwriting & how dare mean old @SidneyPowell1 use them to supplement her icky filings on behalf of Flynn! /3

You may have seen recently that Nancy Pelosi was campaigning in Michigan. She wasn't just doing that to support Joe Biden. The Democrats are preparing for a scenario in which the House of Representatives has to choose the President under the Constitution. /1

That could happen if the electoral college votes are tied 269 to 269 or if neither candidate receives 270 votes, which could in theory be the case if one or more states cannot get its electors together by the deadline in order to cast their votes. /2

In that situation, the House of Representatives chooses the President. But, it does NOT do so by each MEMBER of the House voting. It does so by each STATE casting one vote. So, to win, a candidate needs to get 26 or more of the states to vote for him. /3
