"A Judge Just Shot Down 25 of the Trump Campaign's Conspiracy Theories in Nevada"

Shooting down their baseless claims, the Nevada judge wrote the challengers “did not prove under any standard of proof" — 25 times.

A breakdown.

"Contest[ant]s did not prove under any standard of proof that the Agilis machine malfunctioned."

That's the automated counting machine vilified in many a pro-Trump election-conspiracy suit.
Three of the iterations of "did not prove under any standard of proof" had to do with claims about Agilis machines.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" any problems with electronic voting machines.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" that illegal votes occurred, or legal votes weren't counted, let alone in large enough numbers to overcome POTUS-elect Biden's 33,596-vote victory.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" any shenanigans with provisional ballots, let alone at sufficient margins.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" any funny business with the signature verification process, let alone at sufficient margins.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" any problems with in-person voting technology, let alone at sufficient margins.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" ineligible voters voted, let alone at sufficient margins.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" that ballots with irregularities were accepted, let alone at sufficient margins.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" that dead people voted, let alone at sufficient margins.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" that any voter other than an intended voter voted, let alone at sufficient margins.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" that ballots were illegal accepted after deadlines, let alone at sufficient margins.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" that illegal votes of any kind were cast and accepted, let alone at sufficient margins.

"Reasonable doubt is one based on reason, not mere possibility."
They ""did not prove under any standard of proof" that Nevada election officials committed any malfeasance.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" that any Nevada official violated any right to observe ballot-counting.
Nor did they "prove under any standard of proof" that any Clark County official knowingly did so.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" that the Biden-Harris campaign gave or offered anything of value in exchange for an election benefit.

Like for example, a bottle of Dom Perignon, to choose one out of thin air.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" those smears Trump supporters may have read in "The Federalist" about the Nevada Native Vote Project.
They "did not prove under any standard of proof" that an anonymous "Doe 3" had anything meaningful to say that would show this to have been anything other than a free and fair election that has come under bad-faith attack by discontents in the democratic process.

Flashback:

This was Lin Wood's response to me earlier this week when I asked him to produce paperwork for his purported 501(c)4, which he refused to provide.

lawandcrime.com/2020-election/… Image
For those asking, the public record on Mr. Wood's purported 501(c)4 is scant.

It was incorporated in Texas through a local subsidiary of a Dutch information company on Aug. 12 of this year, too soon for a Form 990 to become available.
I asked his attorney to provide his Form 1024-a, which must be made publicly available.

His attorney said Wood didn't file one, but instead filed a non-accessible Form 8976.

As one expert explained: “By filing form 8976, all they’ve done is announced they exist."

Among the Trump campaign's itemized disbursements released last night. docquery.fec.gov/cgi-bin/forms/…
Bear in mind, these are only the campaign's spending.

Trump Victory has another long set of Trump disbursements, like $294,019.95 paid to Trump Hotel Collection on Nov. 12, after Trump was the declared the loser. docquery.fec.gov/cgi-bin/forms/…
Trump Victory is a joint fundraising committee, meaning that other big GOP interests are benefiting—incentivizing their dragging this out.

Here's the list: opensecrets.org/jfc/summary.ph…

Big scoop by @KenVogel and three other fearsome NYT bylines here, ending the sleuthing on the "Bribery-for-pardon" probe 🔽
"A billionaire San Francisco real estate developer, Sanford Diller, enlisted their help in securing clemency for a Berkeley psychologist, Hugh L. Baras" —

Whose name, let the record show, ends with an "s."

cc: @SollenbergerRC, who got that right.
As for which S-ending name it was, it goes to show that internet guesswork tends to be wrong. It's better to pursue firsthand information or wait for the story to develop.

The same plaintiffs and lawyer who tried and failed to block certification of Michigan's election are back in court again now requesting an audit.

Their last case peddled a Dominion conspiracy theory affidavit:

Covering the courts for more than a decade, this is the first time that I encountered a federal judge talking about a "Bribery-for-pardon scheme" in a heavily redacted document—or any document whatsoever.
There's a lot more to unpack here in my story going live shortly on @LawCrimeNews, but for now, I will leave you with the regular admonition to #AlwaysReadTheFootnotes.
To dispel the inevitable howl of conspiracy theorists "Why is this coming out now?"—

The answer is simple and was given when the order was secretly issued on Aug. 28 this year:

Judge Howell gave the government 90 days to produce an unsealed version of his opinion.
