OK, let's look at Sidney Powell's "Kraken" Georgia complaint. First, like everyone else, I'm going to laugh at how the title, on the first page, misspells "District" in two different ways.
Next up: PDF metadata. The author of the PDF isn't Sidney Powell, it's Juli Haller. Who is Juli Haller?
Juli Haller, who wrote the Powell Georgia claim, is a *current* US Government employee, working for HUD in the Trump Administration.
Haller was implicated in discrimination against an Iranian-American employee when she worked at the White House in 2017. politico.com/news/2019/11/1…
She's also a fan of Nigel Farage.
Sidney Powell also made an election claim in Michigan today. Sure enough, Juli Haller is ALSO the author of that complaint.
The Michigan complaint was also made on "Berts-pc". No idea who Bert is, though.
Both complaints are basically a re-tread of the Dominion conspiracy, various counting conspiracies and the absentee ballot conspiracy. The content should be familiar by now.
The remedies Powell is seeking are confusing. They seek to enjoin the Governors of GA and MI from "transmitting the currently certified election results to the Electoral College". But... this isn't a thing. Results are never transmitted TO the Electoral College
The certified election results are sent to the Archivist of the United States, and both Kemp and Whitmer have already done that. The Electoral College doesn't *receive* results because it doesn't exist except for on 14 December when its members vote.
In both suits, Powell (and Juli Haller) ask the courts to just declare Trump the winner in Georgia and Michigan. This is not a thing that is going to happen, and even asking for it makes them look terrible.

Trump is gearing up for a 2024 run. Hard to express how disastrous this will be for the GOP. All I can think of is Ken Livingstone in 2012.
Ken Livingstone became Mayor of London in 2000 as a maverick fighting the Labour Party establishment, until they eventually adopted him as the Labour candidate in 2004.
Ken wasn't a *bad* mayor by most measures, but he appointed a lot of cronies to well-paid jobs, he sucked up to Islamists and kept picking needless fights with racist undertones against Jewish Londoners.

How ignorant of history and politics do you have to be to think that Roosevelt 100 years ago would have used the the contemporary American terms "conservative" and "liberal" in this way?
Roosevelt saw himself as a Liberal and a Progressive. In 1911 he wrote:

"Fundamentally it is the radical liberal with whom I sympathize. ...when he adds sanity in moderation to courage and enthusiasm for high ideals"
Later he founded the Bull-Moose Party, aka the Progressive Party, because he felt the GOP had become too conservative.

On pro-Trump site TheDonald, many of them are convinced that everything is going according to plan. When the Supreme Court crowns Trump, some are preparing to take up arms and fight the Antifa hordes. ImageImageImageImage
Some remain confident even in the face of scepticism from friends and family. ImageImage
There's also a "1776" faction, which hopes to violently overthrow the US Government if Trump's loss isn't overturned by the Supreme Court. ImageImage

In 2016, Julian Assange sent this message to Donald Trump Jr:

"Hi Don if your father 'loses' we think it is much more interesting if he DOES NOT conceed [sic] and spends time CHALLENGING the media and other types of rigging that occurred-- as he has implied that he might do." Image
"He is also much more likely to keep his base alive and energised [sic] this way and if he is going to start a new network, showing how corrupt the old ones are is helpful.", continued Wikileaks
"The discussion can be transformative as it exposes media corruption, primary corruption, PAC corruption, etc."

Excellent news: Moderna's Covid-19 vaccine is almost 95% effective, according to preliminary data. That means two vaccines are on track for an early 2021 rollout.

theguardian.com/world/2020/nov…
Moderna also announced that its vaccine can be stored at 2-8C (normal refrigerator temperature) for 30 days. The Pfizer vaccine required special hyper-low temperatures.
Both the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines use the same approach (mRNA)
