A former Trump adviser tells me Rudy Giuliani was driving the strategy of declaring premature victory since his "principle is possession is 99% of ownership."
The former Trump adviser said Pam Bondi, Corey Lewandowski and Rudy Giuliani are "literally the wrong team" to have in front of legal challenges since "it makes it lack credibility."
The former adviser said Trump is relying the trio of Bondi, Lewandowski, and Giuliani since he implicitly trusts their loyalty. "He knows those guys never fucking leak and if they do leak it's never to make him look bad," the ex-adviser said.
The ex Trump adviser compared current reliance on Bondi, Corey, and Rudy to Trump's past use of Michael Cohen. They noted Trump said he "could easily have a Harvard guy" as his personal attorney but liked Cohen because he wanted "a pitbull that I can trust to put things to bed."
The Trump campaign, Rudy, and Corey did not respond to my requests for comment. Pam Bondi could not be reached.

There's an important and serious point to make here. We are witnessing an authoritarian attempt to undermine the democratic process by falsely challenging this election. It has not worked.
The safeguards our democracy has in place from the poll workers and state officials from both parties and the media have stood up strongly against these false attempts to subvert the election.
This is something people of all views should be proud of. That being said, this attempt was uniquely hamfisted. A future effort to reject an American election could be more sophisticated.

I am now going to livetweet @RudyGiuliani's election "analysis" video. It's part of the "Rudy's Common Sense" broadcasts he's been doing on Youtube. Join me for this adventure!
Rudy's election analysis video has ads, so he is profiting from all this.
In case you want to dive in to the messy questions surrounding how Rudy is (or isn't) paid for his Trump legal work, here's a deep dive on it that @nycsouthpaw and I wrote. google.com/amp/s/news.yah…

The scattershot nature of the Trump team's comments and legal challenges to the election have caused speculation about what litigation he hopes to pursue and what allies are behind him. I have a couple answers to that though this is all fast moving and it's hard to be definitive.
A source familiar with the Trump team's legal strategy tells me there main Supreme Court litigation is the case about the Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision that granted a three day extension letting officials there count some mailed ballots received up to tomorrow
Jay Sekulow, who has a winning Supreme Court record and helped lead the successful impeachment defense is the attorney of record for the Trump campaign in that case.

An hour or so ago, I started to feel exhausted and get a horribly runny nose. This was pretty much a nightmare election day scenario for me ...
I then realized I forgot to have coffee this morning. That is what happens to me when I don't caffeinate because I am a drug addict.
How's everyone else's day going?

Glenn Greenwald repeatedly misspelled both Tony Bobulinski and Lesley Stahl's names in the column that he was so upset to have edited. greenwald.substack.com/p/article-on-j…
There are many, many other problems with this piece that are more serious (though less amusing) than that typo.
A big issue is that it completely ignores the major issues with the New York Post's reporting including that Rudy Giuliani contradicted himself in his explanation of what happened with the alleged laptop.

The other day I saw one of our great neighborhood restaurants, an Indian spot named Rajaji, had put fliers all over the block letting people know they were open again and doing takeout.
It really got me because it was just so clear that this was a business working to get their customers back and survive this awful moment.
I ordered from them tonight and the food was delivered by someone from the restaurant. He thanked me and told me to enjoy the meal.
