Last week I noted that the Jan. 6 subpoenas failed to include the Capitol-Hill rally organized by Ali Alexander. (1/2) washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…

The Arizona “audit” didn’t conclude that Biden won Maricopa County. Instead, it gave a false veneer of authority to existent conspiracy theories. washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…
Trump, of course, wasted no time making false claims about what the Arizona report found. So here is the truth. washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…
I think the guy running the thing sincerely believes something fraudulent occurred, despite the lack of evidence. So the result was that he highlighted (often easily explicable) questions instead of proving anything.

If you think that the Arizona audit didn't provide exactly what Trump and his supporters were looking for, you're almost certainly misunderstanding it. washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…
There's a lot of ho-ho!-ing about the vote count. But the vote count was never what Trump and his allies were focused on. What the review did is create a veneer of authority for the actual conspiracy theories, which very much survived. washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…

I was going to make this Tulare County but it has Yes up 11.
It's fun to actually get to dig into California politics instead of just being like "how many seats did the GOP hold".

The image here, which one might call tone-deaf with some understatement, is about a decade old. (1/)
It appears to be by an artist named Dave Maestrejuan. (2/) maestrejuan.com/Dave_Maestreju…
He made it for the Orange County Fair in 2011, as he explains on his blog. (3/) maestrejuanart.blogspot.com/2011/07/orange…

Here you can see the increase in pediatric hospitalizations and how it overlaps with vaccination rates — but, importantly, children are still far less likely to wind up facing such a severe outcome. washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…
I wrote this piece because I worry a lot, often irrationally, about my own kids. Looking at the numbers assuaged that, if only temporarily.
Here's a more temporally constrained set of data looking at cases, hospitalizations and deaths. Kids are the orange parts, barely visible even now in the latter two graphs. washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…
