#SeditionHunters following the developing story of VP-elect Kamala Harris & the pipe bomb on Jan 6: here are some resources to show the discrepancies. Politico writes that Kamala Harris was in the DNC building when the bomb was found, evacuated 1:14 PM. 1/
politico.com/news/2022/01/0…
On Jan 6, the first bomb was found in the RNC (Republican National Committee). USCP Chief Sund, in a Feb 1 letter to Congress, said the RNC bomb was found at 12:52 PM (widely reported), but the DNC one not til 1:50 PM - inconsistent with Politico. 2/
s3.documentcloud.org/documents/2047…
Events on Jan 6 were confusing, reporting was often scrambled, and the DNC bomb got less attention since the attack was ongoing. Sund is consistent, though, repeating the same timing in testimony to the Senate on Feb. 23: 1:50 PM for the DNC bomb. 3/
hsgac.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…
Is there corroborating evidence? Acting USCP Chief Yogananda Pittman (who took over when Sund stepped down after Jan 6), delivered a statement to the House on Feb. 25 that said that the DNC bomb was found "shortly after" the RNC one. No specific time. 4/
docs.house.gov/meetings/AP/AP…
None of the timelines from the DoD or National Guard address the pipe bombs, since that was not their responsibility. Media on Jan 6 reported the evacuation of the DNC but without a time. The NYT wasn't even sure on Jan 6 that the DNC item was a bomb: 5/
nytimes.com/2021/01/06/us/…
The FBI is quite definite now that both items were bombs (see link). So do the discrepancies even matter? Yes, because they are too big to be a mistake or slip. And Sund was quite definite. Either Politico is wrong, or Sund is. And that matters. 6/
fbi.gov/video-reposito…
Deceptions always matter. Did someone deceive Politico? Or was it Sund? The day before the article, Sund posted a Tweet: "There have been so many lies told about Jan 6, 2021. Incredible misinformation fed to a divided nation." Sure sounds like something is up. 7/
The authorship of the Sund Tweet appears confirmed by Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn. Kind of fitting for closing out an insane year that on the anniversary of the terrible events of January 6 we have yet another tangled mystery. 8/
Another source: review by two Senate Committees (Rules & Administration / Homeland Security & Govt. Affairs), posted June 1. Says: DNC bomb was found "shortly after 1:00 PM". It cites a USCP timeline "on file with the Committees", seemingly not public. 9/
rules.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…
Keeping score:
* 2 votes Late (1:50 PM) - Sund Feb. 1, Feb. 23
* 3 votes Early ("shortly after" RNC bomb at 12:40-52 PM, itself unclear) - Pittman Feb. 25, Sen. report Jun 1 (from private USCP timeline), new Politico reporting (< 1:07 PM).

How is this still uncertain?

This election won't see another Jan 6 - Trump can't raise a crowd. But there will be something new; his backers are desperate. In 2020 TX AG Ken Paxton was one of Trump's main allies. Now, 2 weeks before the election, Paxton previews a plan: to contest the Texas vote. 1/ Image
The scariest players in 2020 weren't Proud Boys; they were rogue state attorneys general, led by Ken Paxton: elected officials all in for sedition. It was Paxton for Texas who sued to reject the votes of the swing states. What will he do this year? 2/
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…Image
On January 6 morning, as the mob gathered at the Capitol, Ken Paxton spoke at Trump's rally: "Texas fights...Twelve straight lawsuits...", claiming Trump won deep red Texas only because he averted fraud. What will he do in 2024 for Trump and Ted Cruz? 3/

Peter Thiel's sidekick Chuck Johnson is now accused of posing as an intelligence asset to defraud businesses. So let's ask: how in 2023 did SEVEN news outlets print Johnson's story that he and Thiel were working for the FBI, without calling his bs? 1/
semafor.com/article/10/16/…
The two outlets who named Johnson as their source are Business Insider and The Atlantic, but their stories were picked up by 5 others, and MANY outlets did worse: they printed versions of the story over April-Nov 2023 without naming sources. It was all bullshit - a campaign. 2/ Image
When Johnson started calling reporters to say he and Thiel were Super Secret FBI Sources, they should have have known this was 1) bs and 2) a PR campaign by Thiel. They should have asked: why would Thiel do this? What is his goal? Every leak has a goal. 3/

People shocked by Evie magazine's article fawning over JD Vance's "classic beauty" and "blue laser beam...eyes that sent women swooning", please realize this is the same outfit that launched a menstrual cycle tracker funded by Vance's patron Peter Thiel. 1/ Image
The propaganda efforts aren't even subtle. Evie (started 2018) is a pitch for the horseshoe left via a "wellness" magazine. The period tracker was spun up in 2022 ("women were tired of the pill"); they claimed they'd have 1M users in a year. They don't. 2/
futurism.com/neoscope/peter…
Evie's use of "blue laser beam eyes" for Vance is funny since that phrase is borrowed from the parody ZDF did of Peter Thiel using the James Bond theme song: "Immortal libertarian, so refreshingly Aryan... with blue laser eyes into human demise..." 3/

Skimming the Jack Smith filing, seems that Ken Chesebro (CC5 here, p. 53) was openly telling people his fake elector plan was a gambit to let Congressmen make false claims disputing the election. He seems to be clearly aware the votes were illegal. Not a good look. 1/ Image
On p. 58: again, Chesebro knew the fake electoral votes were just a "pretext" for a fake fight to deny Biden the presidency. Interestingly, the same para says Trump was in "almost daily" contact with someone whose podcast spread the false claims - who? 2/
storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.usco…Image
On p. 59 we learn that Trump spoke directly and privately to Ken Chesebro (CC5), and that someone else closely involved (CC6) warned Chesebro to not talk about the plan in chat groups and to text about the fake electors to just a few people. They knew it was illegal. 3/ Image

Today DOJ revealed a $10M op to use US podcasters to push Russian propaganda, since 2023. Let's remember that Lauren Southern, "Commentator-5", went to Moscow in 2018 to make a film to "correct " "America's irrational fear of Russia". This stuff has been going on for years. 1/ Image
Today's indictment doesn't claim Southern knew her recent funders were Russian. But in 2018, she must have known. Daniel Lombroso says that when Southern got to Moscow, she was so dismayed that she dropped the film. So it wasn't her idea. Whose was it? 2/
archive.is/L0AOb
In 2018, Lauren Southern pivoted her film project to another favorite Russian theme: the danger of Islamic immigrants. Just when Scott Presler was starting an anti-Islam speaking tour at US colleges. Why are their talking points coordinated? Because someone's paying for them. 3/ Image

This headline about how Trump lied about nearly dying in a helicopter crash gives major deja vu. Sure, today he mixed up Jerry Brown vs. Willie Brown. But there may be a deeper brain scramble going on. Trump famously lied about nearly dying in a helicopter crash in 1989. 1/ Image
In Oct 1989, as Trump's casinos were edging into bankruptcy, 3 of his top casino execs died in a crash of a helicopter chartered by the Trump Org. The rotor simply fell off. Trump soon began telling reporters he was scheduled to be on the flight too. 2/
pressofatlanticcity.com/3-trump-execs-…Image
Trump's story of miraculously cheating death got a lot of press, even though other Trump execs contradicted his story almost immediately. It was a big deal; it got national-level coverage. In an old man losing his memories, this helicopter story might still remain. 3/ Image
