12/Seems that Tyrmand and Jason Miller (who was also in Brazil) met with Farage on 9/22. h/t @gal_suburban
17/ Whoa. Someone sent me these additional photos of Matthew Tyrmand. For those who may not know, in the first, he is sitting with Jair Bolsonaro, the far right president of Brazil. cc: @SenWhitehouse@BennieGThompson

😳”The solution, Bannon announced, was to seize control of the GOP from the bottom up. Listeners shld flood into the lowest rung of the party structure: the precincts…After Bannon’s endorsement, the ‘precinct strategy’ rocketed across far-right media.” 1/ propublica.org/article/heedin…
“Viral posts promoting the plan racked up millions of views on pro-Trump websites, talk radio, fringe social networks and message boards, and programs aligned with the QAnon conspiracy theory.” 2/
“Suddenly, people who had never before showed interest in party politics started calling the local GOP headquarters or crowding into county conventions, eager to enlist as precinct officers.” 3/
“Election Security Problems Still Must Be Addressed” (In other words, the Big Lie did not make legitimate election-security concerns vanish.) 9/27/21 1/ newsweek.com/election-secur…
“The election system industry has little to no oversight, transparency or regulation, and what little security testing there is, is voluntary, lax and woefully outdated.” 2/
“The federal agency tasked with voting system testing and certification [@EACgov] has been criticized extensively for its excess dysfunction and lack of security expertise.” 3/
This is revolting. It’s bad enough that @charliekirk11’s TPUSA is trying 2 brain wash high school kids. Now it seems his organization employed an alleged pedophile who reportedly said he wanted to rape a 12-16 year old girl. Where is the public apology?! #Accountability 1/
I’m not saying Charlie Kirk knew what this freak said (about wanting to rape a 12-16 year old) or other illicit activities, but he & TPUSA nonetheless owe an apology to any high school students that it may have exposed to this predator. 2/
Note that Charlie Kirk’s organization (TPUSA) recently partnered w/ Jack Posobiec who spread the debunked conspiracy theory that Democrats were running a pedophile ring run out of a pizza parlor. Kirk, Posibiec, & TPUSA are trash. 3/
Wait. Someone who worked for @charliekirk11’s TPUSA (which often targets high school students for “right wing” indoctrination) has been arrested in connection w/ an 18 person child pornography ring???? Has TPUSA given a statement???
This is outrageous. After screaming about “audits,” Republicans in Georgia have decided the state need only audit 1 race every 2 years, w/ no requirement that it be chosen at random. New interview of election-integrity advocate @MarilynRMarks1#gapol 1/
.@CoalitionGoodGv's election-security work is nonpartisan & crucial. It’s also expensive bc they take GA state officials to court. Pls support them if you can. Democrats litigate voter suppression but typically ignore election security. Thank you. 3/ coalitionforgoodgovernance.org/donate/
Thanks to the Big Lie, Democrats have let their guard down. Republican lawmakers in Georgia have decided that the state need only audit 1 race every two years, w/ no requirement that it be chosen at random. New interview of election-integrity advocate @MarilynRMarks1#gapol 1/
.@GASecofState is no election integrity champion. He has appealed the court ruling that Marilyn's nonprofit obtained, which forced the state to have backup paper poll books in 2020. Virtually all election experts agree that backup paper poll books are necessary. 2/
Georgia's electronic poll book supplier, Knowink, is run by a guy whose wife donated to @GASecofState & whose product manager belonged to College Republicans and campaigned for Ed Martin, a member of the Council for National Policy. The system needs checks & balances (paper). 3/
