Reminder: Live discussion on YouTube today at 3pm EST with @Barnes_Law, who affirms the contention that "the outcome of the election was determined by elaborate, systematic fraud" youtube.com/channel/UCaLn4…
Here's the direct link:
Conversation just ended. Thought it went reasonably well (was never intended to be a formal "debate"!)
Addendum: One of the central claims made for election fraud is that the rejection rate for absentee ballots allegedly plummeted in GA and elsewhere. But according to the GA Secretary of State, the rejection rate was the same in 2020 as it was in 2018

And here's the rate for 2016 vs. 2020 according to GA Secretary of State official. ("Rejection rate" in this context refers to ballots rejected due to mismatched or discrepant personal information/signature.) So the rejection rate differed by .08%

Now the official claim by way of Rudy G is that there was "a plan from a centralized place to execute these various acts of voter fraud." So it's a conspiracy theory. Not all conspiracy theories are wrong. But this is an explicit assertion of a coordinated, mass-scale conspiracy
And now it's also a "foreign interference" conspiracy according to Sidney Powell -- "Venezuela, Cuba, and likely China"
Giuliani clarifies that what he's positing is a "national conspiracy." That's his term

The good news about the 2020 election is that it provided more than enough material to make pretty much everyone feel stupid: mtracey.medium.com/why-everyone-s…
I like how Twitter asks me if I’d like to read my own article first before retweeting it
TLDR: Anyone who confidently proclaims that all their prior assumptions about the nature of the electorate were unambiguously vindicated by this election outcome is full of shit

I came to tonight’s Trump rally in Rome, GA over four hours early and only barely made it in because the lines were so long. The contrast with Biden events is just comical
Although to quote one attendee I overheard waiting on line: “I tell ya, we are superspreaders right now [laughs]”

More people than I thought were wearing masks but it was still probably less than half overall, even though the Trump campaign officially encourages mask-wearing
Also there were people melting down left and right due to the logistical shitshow of leaving the event. Screaming matches between people over who gets to board returning busses, etc. I heard variations of “this is the biggest nightmare...” shouted in frustration several times

Just visited a Dem field office in suburban Atlanta. People working there had no idea how to get into the Kamala event nearby. “It’s the same people going over and over” to these semi-private Biden/Harris events, one said, such as State Reps. Meanwhile, volunteers are excluded
“I wish they wouldn’t keep it so close to the vest,” another said regarding Biden/Harris campaign secrecy about event details. Clear frustration and recognition that this goes well beyond what would be necessary for COVID protocols
I found the event. Staff says Secret Service will throw you out if you’re not authorized to attend by the Georgia Democratic Party. Speculation that it’s based on donor lists. If you were so lucky as to be invited you’d of course have to submit to a full vehicular search

My observations from Pennsylvania. In sum, no one really bothers to make an affirmative case for Biden because everybody is so monomaniacally obsessed with Trump unherd.com/2020/10/can-be…
If Biden can win despite such meager displays of in-person enthusiasm at his own rallies -- at which Trump supporters show up in far greater numbers to jeer him -- then “enthusiasm” has pretty much been negated as a meaningful factor in determining election outcomes
Of course it was widely assumed that this election would be a "referendum on Trump" (to use a pundit cliche) but the extent to which Biden is just a non-entity in the conversations I've had with normie voters so far is pretty amazing, especially if he does manage to win

Remember when the US punditocracy was briefly enraptured by wild prophesies of “Civil War”? Is that a subject you’d just casually move on from after a few news-cycles? The profession is filled with babbling loons who don’t even believe their own rhetoric

unherd.com/2020/10/how-hy…
Just keep in mind over the next few weeks that whatever other hysterical prophesies you hear will almost invariably be projections of the pundits’ own emotional insecurity and angst, rather than anything that bears resemblance to actually-existing political or social conditions!
US cultural and media elites so deeply crave a dramatic, psychologically gratifying conclusion to the Trump saga that they’ll continue projecting insane post-election scenarios (Civil War, violent militia insurgency, etc) that are just figments of their very troubled imaginations
