"Well the burden of proof in court is only a preponderance of the evidence."
Ohhh, super easy then sounds like no trouble at all.
"Pat Toomey just said the election is over and you have no evidence. Why is he wrong?"
"BECAUSE THERE WAS MASSIVE FRAUD AND WE WILL PROVE IT"
"Why would Donald Trump's justice department not be interested in fixing this fraud?"
"He can't control what they do because there are too many lawyers there"
"Fraudulent mail-in ballots or whatever means they used to do it" is such an interesting tell. Typically, if you have evidence of fraud, you might have some evidence of how its accomplished.

The Supreme Court of Arkansas ruled today that, although the winning Democratic candidate had been pardoned for the 40-year-old misdemeanor offense of selling mortgaged crops, he was still ineligible to hold office. His opponent wins by default. /1
The Arkansas Constitution forbids anyone who has been convicted of an infamous crime from holding office. And infamous is a pretty broad term, a bit like a "crime of moral turpitude" that covers virtually any form of dishonesty. /2
Here, because the misdemeanors involved converting the property of others to his own use, it qualifies, the Court held. /3
You know, the US only has two political parties and there were serious efforts from one of them not to certify votes from cities, to ask legislatures to appoint the wrong electors, and to ask courts to declare Trump the winner.
Were the efforts incompetent? Sure, but that didn't mean they were hopeless or that they won't be repeated. It's dumb to try to overthrow a government after a meeting in a Munich beer hall too.
But still corrosive.
And the public alarm was, in fact, necessary. Massive public pressure led to Wayne County certifying its vote. It led legiatures to quickly reject appointing the wrong electors.
Scott Adams: Just wait until next week when the REAL evidence comes out
Journalist: When should I follow up with you?
Adams: I AM NOT OBLIGATED TO ANY DEADLINES
Scott Adams is actually a very smart man. I am saying this not based on any evidence you're aware of, but rather based on some secret facts that will come out at an unspecified point in the future.
Journalist: Still nothing
Scott Adams: You'll just have to be patient because the secret stuff I know isn't about any of the things that have already been debunked
Sidney Powell did amazing work for Flynn, successfully keeping him from getting pardoned, or his case dismissed, with a flurry of frivolous motions to postpone his case until after Biden takes office.
Just astonishing advocacy, moving from straight probation to likely jail time.
It was nuts to ask for a mandamus when the judge just wanted to hold a hearing. I know that a three-judge panel ruled for her initially, but that was also insane and seriously called their judgment into question.
It's kind of interesting that the origin story of Logan losing all competence was her screwing up a Benghazi story, getting fired, and then trying to sue people who talked about it.
She didn't fact check a source, she said, because he was a great guy, and repeated his story of derring do and being abandoned by Hillary Clinton because it fit her priors. Very much a Dan Rather mistake. But it made her go nuts.
