NEW: A kraken has been released, but not Sidney Powell's.

Veterans of conservative politics & media say Republican reluctance to admit @JoeBiden won & the new anti-@FoxNews backlash show how rabid, uncontrollable, & dangerous the @GOP base has become. independent.co.uk/voices/trump-f…
Ex-Rep/radio host @WalshFreedom says @GOP pols have long feared their own base more than @realDonaldTrump's wrath: "I had Republican House members tell me three years ago: ‘I don't give a flying f**k about Trump, I just don't want to cross his voters." independent.co.uk/voices/trump-f…
But Newsbusters founder @mattsheffield says Trump boosted fringe players that radicalized Republican officeholders' constituents: “People like Alex Jones had always had millions of listeners and followers, but Trump brought them into the big tent."

“The inmates have gradually taken over the asylum, and now they're running the place and the guy who opened the last cell door lock — Trump — can’t do anything about them,” @mattsheffield said. independent.co.uk/voices/trump-f…

This Pennsylvania "hearing" is nuts.

There's a witness who is complaining because envelopes (with addresses and signatures) are separated from ballots (which show how people voted).

That's the point of a secret ballot.
GOP witness: "I am an expert in fraud."
Rudy and his crackpot witness are marveling that there can be more "absentee" ballots than were mailed out.

Pennsylvania had numerous sites (e.g. election board offices) where one could go in person to request an absentee ballot, fill it out, and submit it.

Michigan Elections Director @JonathanBrater: Results represent "a labor of love, on behalf of our state, performed by Michigan 1600 election clerks and our staff" in "an effort that is unprecedented both in scope and in difficulties."
.@JonathanBrater: "The Bureau has not identified any irregularities this year, other than the typical occasional human error is always part of the process. Overall we had an extremely well run and secure election."

INBOX: @RudyGiuliani and ⁦@JennaEllisEsq⁩ have officially thrown Sidney Powell under the bus:

“Sidney Powell is practicing law on her own. She is not a member of the Trump Legal Team. She is also not a lawyer for the President in his personal capacity.” Image
CONTEXT: During an appearance on @newsmax last night, Powell accused Georgia Governor @BrianKempGA, @GaSecofState Brad Raffensperger, and their families of taking bribes from voting machine manufacturers.
And yet, Powell appeared with Ellis and Giuliani at a press conference last week, during which Giuliani introduced her as a member of the @TeamTrump legal team.

NOW: Sidney Powell on Judge Brann's ruling, speaking on @Newsmax: "This particular judge was appointed by President Obama, we really don't expect to win a lot of the district court cases but ultimately the Court of Appeals, and the Supreme Court will have to get it right."
More Powell: "We haven't even begun to present the big fraud case yet that I'm still working on, and it's going to be a blockbuster."
Powell is now claiming that Democrats somehow added 35,000 votes to every Democratic candidate's vote total in every state.

NOW: ⁦@realDonaldTrump⁩ is talking about executive actions which purport to lower prescription drug prices. Image
I think what he's trying to say is that the order will require discounts to go to consumers (he says people) as opposed to "middlemen" (who are also presumably people)
Trump now touting bizarre "most favored nation" rule that sets drug prices based on prices negotiated by other countries' single-payer systems. The US can't negotiate because the legislation creating Medicare Part D specifically banned it.
