Trump's winning!

(For those who are total morons, this is a joke)
nytimes.com/interactive/20… Image
Trump’s lead grows in absolute terms but shrinks in relative terms. How can that be, @JSEllenberg? How can you get further ahead and have a smaller percentage? Fraud!!! Image
And Biden has taken the lead!
A huge dump just came in from Georgia and elsewhere. I mean, Trump had it won! People, and they just found these votes...in Georgia! Image
Look at all this fraud!!! Image
It's close, people.... Image

Ok, it being 1:30 and @Klonick and my not having a guest yet for @inlieuoffunshow, I declare it a #GuestsGoneWild day. In my next tweet, I will tag some key members of the audience. They will respond with some prior guests they would like the bring back.
The first bagged guest will name some other guest he or she wants to talk to. And we'll see what happens. Here we go....

As this idea seems to be taking off, let me say a few words about Merrick Garland as a potential AG, a subject about which I have a lot of thoughts.
First, I floated this idea some time back, before the election, because Garland struck me as precisely the type of person Biden should want running the Justice Department. He has unusually deep experience the the department.
He is also, critically, as close as we have in this day and age to a figure who is actually above politics. Despite what Mitch McConnell did wth his nomination, he the subject of pretty universal admiration among his colleagues on the D.C. Circuit.

What did you dream last night?
There was actually a little more to the dream than this. At one point, a prominent lawyer walks into the court, recognizes me, and begins congratulating me about @lawfareblog. This stresses me out further because while it is good for my case before the judge, I have no idea...
...who this person is and I'm clearly supposed to know him.
Also, the judge mysteriously changes gender and race. As a judge, he is African American and male. As a dental hygienist, she is white and female and I am trying to make my case to her before sitting in the chair.
