Ok! I just dialed in on Trump's Az election lawsuit hearing before judge Kiley & you know things are not going well when the Judge is asking counsel 4 Trump Inc:

You're telling me that some of the web solicited declarations you submitted, you yourself determined that are false?
Judge: "The ones that you submitted you simply could not prove that are false, is that correct? How is that a reliable process of gathering evidence?

Trump Inc atty: But judge the residual exception is a good one and apply, they could have seen the "green button".
493 Declarations were apparently submitted by Trump to support their claim that because of the "green button" there were overvotes, but according to county counsel there were only 180 overvotes in the entire election.
OMG! Apparently, all these declarations were solicited online where ppl could select a few radio buttons and then the declarations were generated using pre-sent language without an opportunity for the "affiant" to either consider what is generated or to elaborate on the testimony
Judge: I want to remind you that the residual requires that there is indicia of trustworthiness to the process. Just because you were not able to prove that the ones you submitted are not false, does not suggest that the process is reliable and trustworthy.
8 Declarations that were submitted in filings to the court had to be removed by the Plaintiffs because counsel who submitted them found out that the ppl who submitted were not at the polling places and thus cannot have seen situations of overvotes. JFC!
Perhaps this is why Snell & Wilmer withdrew from representing the AZ GOP Committee in the case?
So the in limine against the declarations was granted. They are out! No shit.
Ok! In this one, it seems that the question is the interpretation of election manual?! about what is the procedure for overvotes. County claims that there is no private cause of action and as to the mandamus claim there is no mandatory duty to right.
The Plaintiffs' attorney just declared that this case is not about "voter fraud" or "stealing the election" just about "good faith errors in the operation of the voting machines that require the affected ballots be reviewed".

The first witness is a Maricopa County Election official who supervises the election process.
So something got F*cked up on the public line so I'm out. Bummer! this was was like the best background work music ever.
I'm back and of course, it was just in time for the judge to announce a 10 min recess.

.@camiloreports on Biden's sweeping reversal of Trump's immigration agenda. As previously reported fist order of business seems to be:
* reinstate in full #DACA
* end the Muslim Ban (Travel Ban 3.0)
* 100 days freeze of deportation
(continues)

cbsnews.com/news/biden-imm… via
* reinstatement of the J Johnson "priority for removal" with a twist to "cur collateral arrests"
* increase the refugee admission cap to 125,000
* withdraw from ACA
* reinstate the Central American Minor Reunification program
There is attributed pledge to end #MPP, however, due to the logistics of actually accomplishing it during a raging pandemic I doubt that we will see an outright end w immediate parole of all victims of this atrocious & shameful travesty. Hopefully, they find away to do it ASAP.

#DV2020 visa holders,

even though #JoeBiden is now the president-elect the PP10053 and PP10014 entry ban remains in effect until the end of the year! Please, please do not attempt to use visas annotated "subject to PP10014" before January!
The likelihood that you will be able to board a plane a minuscule and even if you somehow managed it, you risk having an overzealous CBP ofc canceling the visa and putting you on the next flight back! Even worst you risk a 235b expedited order of removal.
We should hear soon from Judge Mehta on our challenge to the national interest waiver application to #DV2020.

BREAKING: Adelanto Detention Center has now a #COVID19 outbreak. We heard yesterday that 32 ppl were in quarantine by noon. @ahilan_toolong & the @aclu team confirmed 38 case as of last night. This is after 300 new arrests were made by ICE in LA the last 50 days. Connect the dots
This is so heartbreaking.

ICE has refused to release ppl with disabilities and chronic medical conditions AND without criminal record.

ICE has refused to release or test ppl with symptoms claiming they do not meet the CDC requirements for testing.
ICE continues to arrest and transfer ppl to ADC from both CBP and state prisons without little protocols for monitoring ppl.

Medical staff are abusive to ppl who complain or make repeated sick calls.

NEW: Miller has now enlisted SSA in the war against asylum seekers! Abt 4 weeks ago clients who got their initial C8 EADs went to local SSA office to apply for initial social security cards but were told they can't submit an appl unless they produce a letter from their employer🧵
This is preposterous and there is absolutely nothing in any regs for such a requirement. So after multiple letters & a call they only agreed to issue them after CL were able to prove that husband is self-employed, but it wan't easy.
The only reason they gave me is that it is a measure adopted in light of #COVID-19 which I assumed is a post-hoc excuse using Trump's PP10052. Coz it was resolved I didn't probe further.

Some potentially REALLY really good news in the PP 10052 & 10014 Litigation in DC with respect to #DVLottery Ban: order is unredacting two bullet points that Judge think are going to redressibility. Since standing could be the only sticking point ... fingers crossed.
Boom! @curtisatlaw got receipts! #dv2020
Why is this relevant you ask? Well, for starters it shows what we all have known for a long, long, very long time: DOS and DHS lie and have lied once again.

Reopening of consulates was never intended to be tied to local conditions
