Wherein I request your additional help in getting yesterday's PM Edition out to the broadest readership possible, as well as statements of agreement collected here at Twitter.
2) Good morning, friends. The past few days have been, I don't mind sharing, some of the hardest days in my short years as a political analyst since 2016. I had a thread broken by exhaustion. And, yesterday's primary thread was broken again by disjoint references. I do apologize.
3) I cannot speak for all those many other analysts who have been on the mission for far longer than I. I can tell you that the form of analysis I attempt requires me to continuously stretch beyond my previous abilities, and at times really does break me, temporarily.
4) I only share that in hopes of garnering your understanding for the weaknesses on evidence over the past several days' work. This, by the way, does not relate merely to the analysis, itself. It also relates to the challenge of putting it forward in real time.
5) There are easy yet powerful tools that might afford me full editorial control if I were only willing to step out of real time in presenting the work. I could easily write my pieces, go over them slowly, and only present them after full consideration. Perhaps I should.
6) Perhaps I may. But so far, I have opted to remain in what I might call warts-and-all real time for the following reason. By your responses and input, I believe you improve my work, and greatly. I have another reason also, I wish to share.
7) I have gifts, as each of us do, unique to ourselves individually. We each have such gifts. Just over 4 short years ago, mine were recognized at the Presidential Campaign level. I will never forget the shock of that moment. I wish to always share that shock with you.
8) I never want to forget that I never dreamed a dream that my work might be accorded attention within the great halls of power. I am a true outsider, with no college degree to recommend myself, and no connections or ties by which to be introduced.
9) I have established friends in high places in the time since, yet the great Big Tech Conservative Purge has greatly reduced any such reach. I am certainly far from understanding why Twitter allows my postings when so many of my patriot friends are expunged from this platform.
10) At any rate, the retweeted thread from yesterday evening is, to my own judgment, the most important I have ever posted. I have, as yet, no idea what this day or tomorrow will bring. Perhaps for that reason as much as any other, I have two requests to make, now.
11) Actually, three. Here is the first. Please understand that my analytical and editorial capability required the ugly process that led to, once completed, yesterday afternoon's Letter To The President. Birthing is not called "labor" for no reason. Gestation is not easy.
12) Second, I am highly aware of the impropriety of an author requesting help in publishing his work broadly. It makes me very uncomfortable. I do not come by humility naturally or easily. It is not my ready gift. I struggle with pride and hubris, self-aggrandizement, even.
13) Did you ever put together the two terms "vice" and "vicious?" We think of vicious as a type of cruelty, and this is correct. At a deeper level, though, any vice fueled becomes vicious. One may be a vicious glutton, or sloth. Viciousness is merely the fueling of vice.
14) I am a self-confessed vicious pride monger. Thus it is my self-proclaimed mission to tame my pride, investing where I'm able into the virtue of humility. I confess all this due to the following fact. I fear my pride may be on the rise in requesting your aid. Yet request I do.
15) Ego strength is a strange thing. I chose to support Trump in 2016 as much for his ego strength as for any other reason. I believed he had the requisite ego to stand for the policies, principle, and promises he made to us. Unlike me, Trump does not suffer fear of hubris.
16) I deemed him the ready fighter America required, and I have never been disappointed in that faith to date. In all my life I have never seen a fighter fight so mightily and for so long, at so much cost. He has lived up to all his promises and then some. My gratitude is vast.
17) With all that apology, I stand here and boldly request your help. I do believe that the Letter To The President I composed yesterday holds merit, and even dare I say, historical importance. I believe it records the emotion and the request of our great MAGA Movement, now.
18) The Cabal and its propaganda/media arm have decimated the faith and integrity of our movement and most especially of our vote. They have stolen our voice yet again. They have suborned our vote. They have purloined our joy in our great victory. They have denigrated our leader.
19) If you read the words of our founders, you discover there the emotion I enjoy today. They feared, yet still empowered our nation's executive magistrate as almost a temporary king. Elected by the sovereign power of the people and accountable to them, to us.
20) It is that context I say, boldly, they have dethroned our temporary monarch. But be clear. He is OURS. He is no hereditary ruler, with right and mein to our sovereignty. He is granted his seat by our choice. It is WE they are dethroning, not he, our representative.
21) On a connected and important note, you may be surprised to learn that I have no favor nor support for any form of term limits, to include the two-term limit of our our 22nd Amendment. The framers explicitly forbade this limit. I agree with them. Here's why.
22) The structural integrity of a republic must not rest solely upon its laws and strictures. It must also rest upon the intelligent and virtuous participation of its citizenry. The democratic component of a representative government must not eschew its obligation of choice.
23) The one and ONLY term limit our Constitution empowers is that of the vote. To limit the term of service by law is to give aspirin to the fever of concentrated power. It addresses the symptom, not the disease. The antibiotic to cure the ill is an intelligent vote.
24) This profoundly illustrates the evil occurring in this land today. There is a vast concentration of power in the hands of those who stole our vote, limiting our President, at least for the moment, to a single term. As if they'd done so lawfully. They have not. It's a lie.
25) I would accept this outcome if I believed at all that we had lost faith in our leader and therefore failed to express our support at the voting booth. To which point I must return to the question of our courts and their corruption.
26) Who can stand behind Judge Emmet Sullivan's persecution of General Flynn? Who can make this case? It insults both intelligence and honor to do so. It desecrates the hallowed history of English freedom. Yes, English. We may have rebelled, but it from thence our freedom comes.
27) I must pause now, due to technology. I will return as soon as my technology task is completed (or failed at, as I so often do)...
28) I believe the following link should work. I will ensure this is posted at my SoundCloud account publicly, as soon as I'm able. I offer it now for your consideration in today's actions of moment. It is my personal reading out loud of the Declaration.
29) In today's considerations we must be clear, more clear, clearer than ever in our lifetimes. We rebelled from the British monarch, due to his breach of English freedoms, those very freedoms that were the basis of our colonial identity and law.
30) When we did so, in 1776, we transferred the hallowed sanctity of those laws of freedom from England to America. And when, in 1789, we ratified our Constitution, we completed that transfer. English laws of freedom were now ensconced in writing in our Constitution.
31) What's more, we improved those laws near out of recognition. The historically unique blend of democracy and republic elevated our law to a place never before imagined in human history. And it is this that is the target of today's Globalist Cabal's initiative.
32) Break the democracy and you break the republic, and the very law which it embodies. "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands..." This pledge will be, in the coming 48 hours, utterly broken should Biden ascend.
33) Consider the chain, previously unbroken, from Magna Carta through 1776 and 1789, all the way to 2021. Consider the import of the Civil War and its outcome. All this and so much more stands on the executioner's block ready to be beheaded should Biden ascend.
34) That is the circumstance in which today's battle plays itself out. It is that context into which I assert that your opinion matters. Where do you stand? Do you stand behind our re-elected President Trump? Before I complete request #2, allow this additional context.
35) A book worthy of your consideration is: "The Cathedral & the Bazaar." It documents an almost lost moment in Big Tech's history. There was, once upon a time, a libertarian, freedom loving aspect to modern technology. What ever happened to that?
36) Yet I propose to you today that there is a possible reason my account here at Twitter is not yet suspended. They need us. I have a small enough following that I've fallen beneath Twitter's anti-freedom agenda. Trump is gone from here, as are my high placed friends.
37) That I remain means I am low placed. My reach too small for them to jettison me so far. If you're here and your account is not yet suspended either, then like me, you too are low placed. But what about all of us low placed souls? If Twitter loses all of us, it dies.
38) Here we still are. And here, I request that you put forward my Letter To The President. He alone has the means of saving our democracy and our republic, if indeed he does. I do not know that he does. I only hope so. I believe you hope the same.
39) With that, I believe you have understood my second request. Please help me put my Letter To The President forward to its broadest possible reach. I apologize again for the pride contained within my request. I purport that our mission transcends such qualms.
40) Now, let us turn to you, to you yourself, you YOUR voice, to where YOU stand. Here is my third and final request for this supplemental analysis. Sign on. In my next Tweet below, I will paste in yesterday's last Tweet. Please click on it. Then, comment with your own statement.
41) Here it is. Take your time. Comment and re-comment at need. Be not shy. You count. That is the point of democracy. Your voice counts. Let us count it. Speak. Speak boldly.
It's your turn now. This supplemental ends at #41.
I will soon post today's actual thread. In it, I will introduce a new voice who tells us, we, We The People each of us, we are now The Plan. I concur, as you shall see.

I've made it from 4:50 to about 14:30. This part is Trump at his best, his most Trumpian. He lists a string of accomplishments that makes the liar of my own memory.
2) It sounds exactly like an acceptance speech which would have ended up with the best is yet to come. Emotional idiot that I am, I'm riddled with pride and heartbreak listening to this list. I'm proud of him, and of us, and mind is dazed and confused. Too much to handle.
3) Had I been asked I would have fought the courtesies at the beginning and had him dive into this section to begin. At this point, no introductions were required. And courtesy? This is not a courteous moment in my book. Oh well. I'll go finish up now and come back.
Rage comes and goes in waves. It often enters into my dreams, triggering my inner warrior. I've had enough hours, and wave cycles, to go back in and finish watching Trump's transition of power to Biden speech.
2) Just a couple of thoughts to share first. For one thing, I now realize Trump thanks Pence. So, I'm finally ready for anything else that follows. For another, I never dreamed Trump had a good loser aspect to his character. Evidently he's a good loser.
3) Diving back in, the shield I require is that not only did I never get tired of winning, I have grown sick to my stomach of losing. House, Senate, White House, all lost. Hell, a landslide reelection with the largest vote in American history, that's lost too. Wow.
Here's the link to soon-to-be former President Trump's Farewell Speech. It's not easy watching, I can tell you that. But we boldly do what we must, right?
2) I am just past 1 1/2 minutes in, and found my planned method to have failed. My plan was to watch the whole thing, and then commence responding after. This won't work. Why? Just over 90 seconds was enough for me to see a politician speaking. First time I ever thought that.
3) There are already many reasons. But one will suffice. He thanks Mike Pence. That, my friends, is something I'll never be able to unsee. I know, perhaps it's merely political theater and who knows where all that stuff goes? But it is unacceptable to me. Viciously so.
Just a couple of instant #MAGAanalysis points in immediate response. Full analysis tomorrow morning.
First, here is obviously the entire speech.

2) Second, you've likely already seen snippets. I have not nor have I watched this one either. I will soon, but there will be more than ample time to take it all in slowly, cautiously, and to extract all meaning. To watch, do as I shall. Watch the whole thing, repeatedly at need.
3) It may be that the fat lady has indeed sung. If so, I will be profoundly disappointed, but not shocked. If you've followed my analyses, you know I've attempted to prepare for all this, and hope that my work may have been of benefit to you, my real objective.
It is, I believe, my patriotic duty to turn away from things of politics for the coming hours. I have my daily work and it commences today at 10:00. I never know when a coaching session may be rescheduled, of course...
2) It is highly likely that events of significance may occur while I ply my daily trade. It has been, so far, I feel, a small failure of MAGA to not explicitly state, after America First, Family First and even, Me First. Americans sustain themselves and their families, first.
3) As I serve each client who entrusts me with dollars for hire and his or her time and openness of mind and heart to share his or her story and consider my counsel in response, my focus must be pure and unhindered, undistracted. This is, to be sure, no easy thing today.
28 Tweets written by Pasquale Scopelliti, but speaking for all the other MAGA Trump supporters who agree from the bottom of their hearts.
1) Mr. President, as a complete outsider - one NOT read in - looking in from the outside, I must state that it appears to me you have the means by which to cure the vote in hand. I know you're aware of General McInerney's guidance and, it looks to me as if you're considering it.
2) What we in the general public can observe is troop deployments of an unprecedented nature. We cannot know who is behind these deployments or what they portend. One possible interpretation is that you have emplaced the assets you require in order to cure the election.
