.@AZGOP: Will u audit ES&S voting machines in AZ too? Cuz the “expert” that @MaricopaGOP wants to sic on Dominion (debunked “expert”Russ Ramsland) says that ES&S voting machines steal votes but that GOP leaders won’t look at ES&S. @KenPaxton (14:28) 1/
2/ To be clear. I am NOT saying Ramsland is credible. He is the guy who switched “Michigan” stats with MInnesota stats to make it look like Dominion engaged in fraud in Michigan. But the GOP’s deference to ES&S is objectively bizarre.
3/ Why rely on Ramsland to go after Dominion but ignore him about ES&S?
4/ Q: Who does it? Seems like an action someone has to take.”
Ramsland: “ES&S, the operators. The people who are actually conducting the election here electronically is ES&S. They are a private company.” (14:28)
5/ Seems like Ramsland just swapped vendor names (Dominion instead of ES&S) bc the GOP doesn’t want anyone looking at ES&S. Weird. He did the same switcheroo with Michigan & Minnesota, remember?
6/ Article about how Ramsland switched Minnesota and Michigan. Who will write the article about his switching Dominion and ES&S? washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/…
7/ At 26:43, Ramsland says “our elected leaders in Texas aren’t listening [about ES&S].” TX uses ES&S & Hart, not Dominion.
Hey, @KenPaxtonTX! You were so keen to sue other states over Dominion, but u won’t look at ES&S?!Yeah, that’s not weird at all.
8/ 2019 Video where Ramsland says @KenPaxtonTX wouldn’t take meetings from him re: ES&S (the vendor used in Dallas county).
See 30:30 - 36:31 where Ramsland complains about ES&S, but says Texas leaders “are running from this.”
“We’ve begged,” he says.
9/ How about we resolve this by having credible experts analyze both Dominion AND ES&S voting machines? Look at Hart, Knowink, Tenex too. And multiple states: TX, FL, SC, MT, etc. And let’s do some manual recounts down ballot too. #ProtectOurVotes

In 2019, Mark Lutter—whose nonprofit received $$$ from the Thiel-backed Emergent Ventures in 2018—said, “we’re putting out a white paper looking at Venezuela…assuming this transfer of power does go thru … And if you u can get charter cities to be part of the conversation,” there is “opportunity…” 1/
William Donahue (president of College Republicans of America) says that he is promoting “integralism, not theocracy,” but his post misleadingly omits that “integralism” is shorthand for “Catholic integralism” & that the doctrine seeks to “integrate” Church & state. 1/ uscatholic.org/articles/20191…
Remember when Trump:
* Posted a photo of himself wielding a baseball bat next to a photo of Alvin Bragg?
* Mocked MSNBC anchor Ali Velshi for getting hit with a rubber bullet?
* Praised Greg Gianforte for assaulting a reporter?
* Joked about the assault on Paul Pelosi? 1/

👀The Harvard Journal of Law & Public Policy has published an article by A3P attorney Josh Hammer, Timon Cline, & Yoram Hazony. It calls on SCOTUS to reverse the 1947 Everson case, which held that the Establishment Clause applies to states & requires church-state separation. 1/
