The court also says it'll OK the release of audio of Tuesday's hearing.
Here's the audio of Tuesday's hearing in which Rudy Giuliani argued on behalf of Trump's campaign. It must be heard to be believed ->

And the court says that even if Wood could bring this lawsuit (which he can't) and if he hadn't waited too long (which he did), he'd also lose on the merits. Image
The judge (a Trump appointee), goes out of his way to shoot down Wood's theory of an Equal Protection violation, which is very similar to the arguments Trump's campaign has made in its own lawsuit in Pennsylvania. Image
The judge said claims that lots of invalid ballots were counted in Georgia is "not supported by the evidence at this stage." The rejection rate for absentee ballots in Georgia in 2020 was the same as it was two years ago. Image

Exhibit J: Military ballots were "very clean." Many of the ballots "were for Biden. Many batches went 100% for Biden." Also, the watermark on three of the ballots didn't look right. "I believe the military ballots are highly suspicious of fraud." Image
[We're more than halfway there!]
Exhibit K: A witness says some workers did "fast counting" of ballots - instead of having each one verified by two people. Ballot boxes were left unattended. Some damaged ballots were "duplicated," but she wasn't allowed to ask what that meant. (It's a normal thing.) Image

Trump's lawyers said the other day that the press refuses to look at all the evidence the president and his allies have put forward of a massive scheme to rig the election.

I did.

Georgia edition, from the case filed by Trump ally L. Lin Wood ->
Exhibit A: A witness declares she was "not close enough to see much of anything" during Georgia's recount. Image
Exhibit B: A witness declares that people conducting the recount were not great at math. Also, sometimes ballots were left unattended on a table and drinks also were left on those tables. Image

President Trump's lawyers have filed a new motion in Pennsylvania making clear that they only want to block the state from certifying the results of the presidential election, which they claim was fraudulent. It can certify the other races, decided on the same ballots, they say. Image
Marks v. Stinson has become the hydroxychloroquine of the president's post-election litigation. Image
Interesting concession in Trump's filing: If PA certifies its electors by Dec. 8, its certification "shall be conclusive" when Congress meets to count electoral votes. (That's in the statute, but you'd think they'd want some wiggle room here.) Image

NEW: Multiple Trump campaign officials tell @Reuters the president's strategy for staying in power despite losing the election is to persuade state legislatures to do what their voters did not and simply declare him the winner.

reuters.com/article/us-usa… Image
President Trump called at least one Michigan election official who's now trying to take back her decision to certify votes in the state's largest county, she said. And he has summoned the leaders of the state legislature to the White House tomorrow. reuters.com/article/us-usa…
Trump's legal team nodded toward this strategy yesterday in a proposed amendment to the campaign's Pennsylvania lawsuit. They want the judge there to declare the state election "defective" and have the Republican-controlled legislature choose a winner instead. Image

Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis seems to be saying the campaign has lots of evidence of "election official fraud," but they can't show it to us yet. This is just the campaign's opening statement, she says.
Giuliani says our votes are counted in German and Spain by companies affiliated with Maduro and Chavez (who died 7 years ago).

"Did you ever believe that was true?"

It isn't.
"There is nobody here who engages in fantasy," Giuliani says, after claiming some kind of conspiracy to rig the election by voting machine manufacturers, Hugo Chavez, antifa and others.
