The tape of Scott Hall bragging about the voting system breach was played during the deposition of Gabe Sterling (GA SOS’s operating officer) in Feb 2022. But the SOS took no investigative action until Aug 2022 when he finally alerted the Bureau of Investigations. WTF? #gapol 1/
People want to believe that our institutions are holding. But the truth is that they often are not. In this instance, our institutions would neither have discovered the Coffee County breach, nor taken investigative action but 4 the eternal vigilance of @MarilynRMarks1. #gapol 2/
We need a nationwide investigation to determine where else these MAGA operators might have breached voting systems. As discovered by @SEGreenhalgh, however, @TheJusticeDept seems to have done NOTHING to investigate. We must help her hold their feet to the fire. #vigilance 3/ Image
Re: post 1, the tape was obtained by @MarilynRMarks1. Likewise, it was Marilyn who unearthed the surveillance footage of the breach itself. This is what vigilance means. It means NOT “assuming” that our elected officials are doing their job. Because too often they are not. 4/
Had our institutions done their job all along, our democracy would not have landed in this precarious position in the first place. We must look to ensure that they are doing their job now. 5/
This is shocking. Gabe Sterling (Georgia Sec of State’s operating officer) insisted that no breach had occurred in Coffee County, Georgia, even AFTER Feb 2022–when he heard the tape of Scott Hall bragging about the breach—& despite deciding to conduct no investigation. #gapol 7/
Marilyn later obtained the surveillance video that proved Gabe Sterling was wrong. She did it. Not our institutions. 8/
11/ Whoa. Seems the Georgia Secretary of State knew, as early as the Spring of 2021, that the voting system password in Coffee County, Georgia had been compromised. And yet they did nothing to investigate until they punted the matter to the Bureau of Investigations in Aug 2022.
12/ You can read for yourself. The GA Secretary of State waited until July 2022 to even try to schedule interviews to “get a handle” on what had happened with the breach in Coffee County. Then they blew off the interviews.
13/ This is the surveillance video. It was uncovered by Marilyn Marks, not the Georgia Secretary of State or any of our other vaunted institutions. #vigilance

Dec 11 , 2020 was when SCOTUS rejected the application filed by Texas AG Ken Paxton, which sought to overturn Trump’s loss. The brief had been ghost written by evangelical extremist lawyer Michael Farris. Dec 11 was an important turning point. (Dec 18 was another.) 1/

After Dec 11, the idea that Trump might try to use the military to seize power increased in likelihood. 3/

I do have an issue that Trump would hire someone like Roger Stone protege Michael Caputo (who previously boasted of working for the Kremlin & tweeted that Chinese people suck on rabid bats) to serve as a spokesperson for HHS during the pandemic. I’m not inclined to let it go. 1/ Image

I think my account has been de-boosted. Just one small example. I tweeted about Abby Grossberg 4 hours ago. It got over 400 RTs (See post 2). But if u search for “Abby Grossberg” in toptweets, these all come up long before mine, despite having far fewer RTs. Why? 1/ ImageImageImageImage
To be clear, I have no issue with the accounts I screen shotted in post 1. Some are mutual follows. My concern is that my tweets seem to have been de-boosted. I’m on enough lists that I still get some traction. But none of that traction is from subject matter searches. 2/ Image
I’ve noticed this on many other occasions over the past few months. I just hadn’t posted about it yet. 3/

Tucker Carlson’s termination is “related to the discrimination lawsuit filed by Abby Grossberg, the producer fired by [Fox] last month, the people said. Carlson’s senior executive producer Justin Wells has also been terminated…” h/t ⁦@FPWellman⁩ 1/ latimes.com/entertainment-…

Psst. Mark Meadows (Trump’s document burning, former chief of staff) is a young earth creationist. He’s now stumping w/ Patriot Mobil, a misleadingly named Christian extremist organization that is attacking public schools. #Christofascism 1/

Clay Yarborough authored Florida’s new anti-trans bill that wld enable the state to steal trans kids from their parents if they receive gender affirming care. He calls himself a “Christ follower.” The hate is coming from Christian zealots. It just is, & voters deserve to know. 1/ Image
3/ “The Get Outspoken website… blasted Yarborough [a self-described “follower of Christ”] for a 2010 comment in which he said he wasn’t sure if Muslims should hold political office and that he’d ‘prefer’ that ‘homosexuals’ did not.” #Christofascism floridapolitics.com/archives/43958…
