THREAD: Perhaps I’m exhausted, or maybe I need a bigger tin foil hat, but this Times story seems super-fishy. First, the headline coupled with the photo leads you to believe trump is sending armed feds to vote counting venues BUT 1/ nytimes.com/2020/11/04/us/…
If you spend some time, you learn the photo is of LOCAL police in Detroit pushing back a crowd of people outside the department of elections. Read on, and we learn that three people saw an email from a guy in Rosen’s office to “prosecutors” (what?) saying the DoJ can send 2/
Armed federal officers to ballot counting locations. FURTHER, the email went out RIGHT BEFORE trump claimed victory Wednesday night. At 1:30 AM. Given the warnings we have received from the FBI, Wray himself, Peter Strzok, and pretty much every intel expert... 3/
We know trump associates and perhaps foreign adversaries will take advantage of the vulnerable time between poll closing and declaration of a winner to sow chaos and spread disinformation. What would stop Donahugh under Rosen under Barr from penning a BS 1:30 AM email 4/
Sending it to federal “prosecutors” (who?) right before trump declares victory, and then planting it with the times? The Times doesn’t have the email. No armed federal agents have been deployed. Trumps DoJ has a history of “leaking” (Strzok & Page texts) 5/
And trump wants you to question the legitimacy of the vote count. Am I way off base here @FrankFigliuzzi1 @sam_vinograd? Trying to be cautious and reflective of scary election news... END
The deza is coming from inside the house
