bipartisanreport--2020-12-29--Trump Jr. Has Belligerent Tuesday Meltdown As Dad Implodes

Donald Trump Jr. remains feverishly committed to his father ’ s political agenda as the outgoing president ’ s time in office swiftly draws to a close .
On Tuesday , Trump Jr. glibly tweeted the link to a news story about his father ’ s lead in a Gallup survey looking for the most admired men in America .
A full 18 percent of the survey ’ s respondents named Donald as the man who they most admire — but a combined 21 percent of respondents named either former President Barack Obama or President-elect Joe Biden as the man @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s lead seem hollow .
On Tuesday , Trump Jr. also complained about an observation from CNN fact-checker Daniel Dale that fact-checking would take on a slightly different form with Biden in the White House .
Unsurprisingly , Trump Jr. failed to acknowledge the reality that underpins this shift : Donald lies and lies , while Biden simply doesn ’ t misrepresent the facts at anywhere near the same rate .
Thus , there ’ s not exactly the same need for a nearly round-the-clock fact-check of the Biden White House — @ @ @ @ @ @ @ threat of online lies and lies from leaders other than Trump remains , so fact-checking in the Biden era “ will necessarily expand ” its scope beyond the White House , as The Atlantic explained .
Trump Jr. characterized Dale ’ s comments as evidence of some kind of nefarious conspiracy to smear Republicans , which is nonsense .
Pretending like there ’ s any serious question about the frequency and magnitude of Donald Trump ’ s lies is nonsensical .
Trump ’ s lying seems pathological — and other leaders who will @ @ @ @ @ @ @ this trait .
Trump Jr. also complained that Stacey Abrams ’ s sister , Judge Leslie Abrams Gardner , handled a recent voting rights case in Georgia , insisting that her familial connection to Abrams — a voting rights advocate — confirms that the process is “ rigged.
” In reality , Gardner is far from the only judge who ’ s rejected one of the many Republican court cases related to election procedures .
Additionally , a complaint from Trump Jr. about supposedly corrupting family ties is rich .
The president — @ @ @ @ @ @ @ also served as a judge !

Well, what do you know? Georgia’s secretary of state just announced the findings of a signature audit of mail-in ballots from Cobb Country in the 2020 presidential election. The Georgia Bureau of Investigation worked with the secretary of state’s office to review the 15,118 ballot envelopes looking for fraudulent votes. The results are in.
They found no fraudulent signatures. One of the ballots was signed in the wrong place. Another ballot included the spouse’s signature. However, the voter was questioned. They revealed the voter filled out his own ballot. So, no harm, no foul.
That is until the ever eccentric Louie Gohmert (R-TX) came along. Over 90 state and federal judges have condemned Trump’s attempts at lawsuits. But in many of the suits, judges evaluated Trump’s claims of fraud and found there was no evidence to support them.
Gohmert’s case argues, according to The Washington Post:
‘[T]he law that governs next week’s congressional action is unconstitutional because it impinges on Pence’s sole authority to recognize electors. The suit argues that a federal judge should order that Pence can choose to recognize alternate electors who support Trump should he wish to do so.’
Gohmert released a statement claiming that seven states sent “dueling slates of electors” to the Capitol:
‘We continue to hold out hope that there is a federal judge who understands that the fraud that stole this election will mean the end of our republic, and this suit would insure that the Vice-President will only accept electors legitimately and legally elected.’
Arizona Republican Party Chairwoman Kelli Ward appeared in a video posted to Twitter. She is also a plaintiff in the “friendly lawsuit:”
‘It’s all on the shoulders of Vice President Mike Pence, and we have this lawsuit to assist him in being able to do his job and to do it well.’
A Republican election law expert who has been reviewing such cases as a member of the nonpartisan National Task Force on Election Crises. Trevor Potter said:
‘This Gohmert suit has had me scratching my head, and I don’t think the courts will take it seriously.’
Potter added that what Gohmert is going after:
‘[W]ould stand the Constitution on its head. It would effectively deliver to the vice president the right to determine who won the presidential election. If the vice president has authority to pick his favorite electors, then you wouldn’t need a Congress or a Constitution.’
Counsel to the nonpartisan Voter Protection Program Norm Eisen (D) called Gohmert’s lawsuit more “absurd and extreme” than all those that preceded it:
‘This attempt to throw out the entire legal structure which has guided American presidential elections for almost 150 years is utterly unfounded. It is destined to end up where sixty-plus other cases have: the legal ash heap.’
Eisen continued:
‘If they choose to waste the time of Congress and the nation in the middle of a health and economic crisis, it will be for no purpose at all, except to stroke the president’s ego.’
That leaves Pence in a rough spot, with what is usually just a formality. He announces the winner of the election. Trump is pressuring him to announce 45 the winner.

We know that Trump has been trying to force Vice President Mike Pence to stand up before Congress and declare the vote a win for the temporary president .
That also happens on January 6 .
Maybe , the president does not have much faith in Pence following through on that Constitution jawbreaker .
Maybe , the VP already told him no .

Well, the Republicans, powered by Donald Trump’s never-ceasing furnace of hatred, never give up trying do they? Earlier, the number of frivolous lawsuits reached 59, so this one would take the count up to a nice round 60. Trump also has another trick up those expense shirt sleeves.
On January 6, POTUS invited the White supremacist group the Proud Boys and the rest of the motley crew of hate groups to a Washington DC celebration, but they do not get to sleep over in Lincoln’s bedroom. Now, why would Donald call them out?
We know that Trump has been trying to force Vice President Mike Pence to stand up before Congress and declare the vote a win for the temporary president. That also happens on January 6. Maybe, the president does not have much faith in Pence following through on that Constitution jawbreaker. Maybe, the VP already told him no.
Or maybe Trump will urge his hate groups into a less nonviolent coup.
In the Georgia runoff election challenge, the Republican National Committee (RNC) filed a lawsuit. The purpose of this last suit was to challenge poll watchers’ access. It also challenged the use of ballot drop boxes to collect ballots prior to the January 5 runoff election, according to The Democrazy Docket:

‘Accordingly, Plaintiffs’ Complaint fails based on a lack of subject matter jurisdiction and, as such, RNC, et al. v. State Election Board, et al.

The Trump administration claimed that since the Dems were in the minority, they had no standing to enforce their right to receive information from the government used to complete their investigations.
A three-judge panel for the Washington DC Court of Appeals found two to one for a group of Democrats.

The Democrats wanted background data on the lease of the Old Post Office building. This is the building that Donald Trump’s company leased for the Trump International Hotel.
Judge Patricia Millett was an Obama appointee, and she wrote the majority opinion for the Court:
‘It is concrete—the request was made and straightforwardly denied; the Requesters have been and remain empty-handed. The injury is personal and particularized to the Requesters themselves, not to any other legislators, to a legislative body, or even to their Committee seats.’
The federal appeals court found that those charged with oversight by definition can bring lawsuits as a means of enforcing their information requests. That would hold true even if they did not hold the majority on a committee. The ruling would give “subpoena-like power” to the committee if there were at least seven Democratic House members and five Democrats in the Senate.

bipartisanreport--2020-12-29--Appeals Court Rules For Dems Investigating Trump’s D.C. Hotel

On Tuesday , the D.C .
Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of House Democrats who brought a court case against the head of the federal General Services Administration , whose agency handles the lease for the government-owned Old Post Office building in D.C. , where the Trump Organization has been operating a hotel .
In the case , the House Democrats have been seeking a copy of lease information covering the Trump Organization ’ s operations , saying that the lease “ explicitly prohibits any ‘ elected official of the government of the United States ’ from taking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ may arise ’ from the lease.
” That prohibition would , of course , cover Trump , who has refused to financially distance himself from his business while serving as president .
In their new ruling in the case , the D.C .
Circuit Court of Appeals reversed an earlier decision from lower-level federal Judge Amit Mehta , who ’ d concluded that the Democratic members of Congress pursuing the lease information did not have the appropriate legal standing to bring their case .
In fact , the appeals court concluded , the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the proceedings do have the appropriate legal standing for the case to continue .
Throughout Trump ’ s time in office , political interests have patronized Trump properties including the D.C. hotel , providing a clear inroad for garnering favor with Trump .
In the new ruling from the D.C. Appeals Court , Judge Patricia Millett wrote as follows : ‘ A rebuffed request for information to which the requester is statutorily entitled is a concrete , particularized , and individualized personal injury , within the meaning of Article III .
That @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from the non-cognizable , generalized injuries claimed by legislators that are tied broadly to the law-making process and that affect all legislators equally.
’ A three-judge panel including Millett , Judge David Tatel , and Judge Douglas Ginsburg participated in the proceedings in which House Democrats just scored a victory .
Emily Murphy , the current head of the General Services Administration who House Democrats name in their lawsuit , has faced other recent scrutiny after she initially unneccessarily delayed her agency ’ s formal recognition of Joe Biden ’ s victory in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ — which she has since issued — allows the Biden transition team to access critical government resources .

Outgoing President Donald Trump continues to push lies about the electoral process in the United States .

Besides also claiming @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Governor Geoff Duncan , and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger are “ virtually controlled by Stacey Abrams & the Democrats , ” Trump also complained on Wednesday about Fox News coverage .

In previous cases, alleged instances of “dead people voting” have been the fault of mere clerical issues, and on the flip side, a conspiracy to cast ballots in the name of dead people would require a level of national coordination for which there’s just zero legit evidence.

On Wednesday, Trump also alleged mismanagement of the mail-in ballot signature verification process in Fulton County, Georgia, where the Trump team has falsely claimed that election workers covertly counted ballots that had been stored in a “suitcase” after observers left the room. In fact, the supposed “suitcase” was merely an ordinary ballot-transporting container, officials explained.

bipartisanreport--2020-12-30--Giuliani Reveals International Election Fraud Conspiracy At GA Hearing

On Wednesday , a Georgia state legislative committee held a hearing on election-related issues — and Rudy Giuliani made an unhinged appearance .
Previously , Giuliani has pushed nonsense like the idea that a centrally planned Democratic conspiracy to fraudulently swing the election to Biden unfolded during the recently concluded presidential race .
This imaginary conspiracy would involve a staggering level of national coordination , with key administrators at high levels in the Democratic Party… and yet , there have been zero arrests connected to this imaginary fraud scheme , and Giuliani has failed to even map out a comprehensive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ out .
Who was in charge ?
Biden ?
Hillary Clinton ?
DNC chair Tom Perez ?
No matter the oh-so-pesky impediments to his conspiracy theories inherent in the basic reality of the situation , Giuliani commented as follows while in Georgia on Wednesday : ‘ This is probably the worst situation of voter fraud we ’ ve ever had in this country… Whatever the result , this election is gon na live in history .
This is gon na be the election that will be the dirtiest election , the most crooked @ @ @ @ @ @ @ American history — because there are more facts to be gathered… It ’ s gon na be a much greater dimension than we already know , and it ’ s gon na involve international connections.

Covert Democratic agents ?
Frontline workers who ’ d somehow been converted to the cause of nationwide election-rigging ?
Considering the multiple levels of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fraudsters would have had to be in place across the chain of command in an essentially full-scale organizational infiltration .
There ’ s just no real substance here — Giuliani is presenting frenzied finger-pointing as fact .
He points to security footage of supposedly suspicious activity as supposed evidence of the imaginary fraud — but does he really expect observers to believe that a nationwide election-rigging scheme covering multiple high-profile states was foiled by security cameras ?
Wouldn ’ t the imaginary fraudsters have thought to check on the security cameras ?
In @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ implores ” state legislators to hold a special session at which they could throw out Georgia ’ s certified election results .
He insisted that , at this point , the only issue is a question of the “ courage ” of the legislators to respond appropriately to the evidence at hand , which is just nonsensical .
No , it ’ s not an issue of “ courage ” — it ’ s an issue of the fact that authorities from the Department of Homeland Security to the Justice Department to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ confirmed that there is no legitimate evidence of systematic , outcome-changing election fraud .

bipartisanreport--2020-12-30--Trump Declares Entire U.S. Election Invalid During Afternoon Hissy-Fit

President Donald Trump continues to spread nonsensical conspiracy theories as his time in office draws to an end .
On Wednesday , he claimed on Twitter that the platform is “ shadow banning like never before , ” which refers to the notion that the platform punitively “ shadow bans ” conservative users , meaning intervenes to lower the reach of their posts and accounts .
In reality , there is no legitimate evidence of any kind of social media company conspiracy against conservative users .
Low levels of positive feedback for right-wing posts don ’ t automatically entail a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ t like what the far-right users have to say !

@ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Trump ’ s nonsense below :

President Donald Trump continues to spread nonsensical conspiracy theories as his time in office draws to an end. On Wednesday, he claimed on Twitter that the platform is “shadow banning like never before,” which refers to the notion that the platform punitively “shadow bans” conservative users, meaning intervenes to lower the reach of their posts and accounts. In reality, there is no legitimate evidence of any kind of social media company conspiracy against conservative users. Low levels of positive feedback for right-wing posts don’t automatically entail a conspiracy. Many people just don’t like what the far-right users have to say!
The broad spread of Trump’s own post about imaginary shadow banning seems to at least partially disprove his own point. Twitter, he says, is artificially decreasing the exposure of conservative posts and accounts… but the world can see Trump’s posts on the platform without issue.
Trump nevertheless tweeted as follows:
‘Twitter is shadow banning like never before. A disgrace that our weak and ineffective political leadership refuses to do anything about Big Tech. They’re either afraid or stupid, nobody really knows!’

Again — there is no evidence of some kind of systematic corporate conspiracy against conservative social media users. Drawing a line from people’s distaste for conservative propaganda to an imaginary conspiracy to suppress conservative viewpoints is just laughably self-important. No, conservatives, the fact that you don’t have more “likes” online is not evidence of some kind of nefarious corporate conspiracy! This occasion isn’t the first time that Trump has pushed laughable nonsense about the behavior of social media companies. Trump has even claimed, with no legitimate evidence, that Twitter artificially adjusts its “trending topics” section to make him look bad. In fact, Donald, many everyday Americans just don’t like you!
On Wednesday, Trump also yet again touted January 6 as a day to watch. On that day, Congress will meet in D.C. to certify the results of the electoral college, and Trump still holds onto the delusional idea that there’s a legitimate pathway for him to secure another term as president.
Thus, he tweeted the following:
‘JANUARY SIXTH, SEE YOU IN DC!’
JANUARY SIXTH, SEE YOU IN DC! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 30, 2020
When is this embarrassing spectacle going to finally end? Trump also claimed that the “United States had more votes than it had people voting, by a lot,” which is just false, although Trump has pushed the claim before. In a late November fact-check, PolitiFact noted that in “Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, the number of registered voters greatly exceeds the number of votes cast” and characterized Trump’s claims to the contrary as “Pants on Fire,” meaning unequivocally completely false. Adding racism to his latest anti-democracy diatribe, Trump also characterized the election as “not even fit for third world countries!”

bipartisanreport--2020-12-30--GOP Senator Announces Plan To Object To Biden Electoral Votes

On Wednesday , Sen. Josh Hawley ( R-Mo . )
announced that he planned to object to electoral vote totals when Congress meets to confirm the electoral college outcome on January 6 .
In order to sustain an objection and move to debate , at least one member of both houses of Congress has to back the effort — and Trump allies in the U.S. House have already announced their plans to object .
After debate on the matter concludes , each chamber votes on the question of accepting the electoral vote totals , and there ’ s no indication @ @ @ @ @ @ @ either chamber will vote against eventually confirming the results .
In the time since Election Day , top Republicans including the outgoing president himself have spread lies about the electoral process , claiming that fraud swung the election to Biden .
Significant portions of Trump ’ s base have taken the fraud lies seriously , and in his Wednesday statement announcing his decision to challenge the outcome , Hawley cited widespread Republican concern about election fraud as an excuse for his stunt , failing to acknowledge that many of these voters became convinced @ @ @ @ @ @ @ first place because of leaders ’ rhetoric .
Hawley also insisted that states including Pennsylvania conclusively violated their own states ’ election laws while handling the presidential race , but this claim isn ’ t proven .
Across the country , judges have rejected claims from the president and his allies that local authorities were out of bounds in their conducting of the election .
Nevertheless , Hawley commented as follows : ‘ I can not vote to certify the electoral college results on January 6 without raising the fact that some states @ @ @ @ @ @ @ their own state election laws .
And I can not vote to certify without pointing out the unprecedented effort of mega corporations , including Facebook and Twitter , to interfere in this election , in support of Joe Biden .
At the very least , Congress should investigate allegations of voter fraud and adopt measures to secure the integrity of our elections .
But Congress has so far failed to act .
For these reasons , I will follow the same practice Democrat members of Congress have in years past and object during @ @ @ @ @ @ @ raise these critical issues.
’ To be clear : ex-U.S. Attorney General Bill Barr , a preeminent agency at the Department of Homeland Security , and local election officials of both major parties from around the country have all confirmed that there ’ s no evidence of election outcome-altering fraud .
Judges across the country , including a slew of Trump ’ s own appointees , have rejected claims from the president and his allies .
Every single state has certified its election results .
What exactly would Hawley want Congress to “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ would amount to political theater , because there is no indication of any hint of legitimacy to the systematic fraud claims .
Hawley ’ s insistence that Facebook and Twitter meddled in the election on behalf of Biden is laughable .
Facebook provided a platform for massive advertising from the Trump campaign , while Twitter facilitated Trump ’ s direct communication with observers via his personal account .
Recently , Twitter has placed some very rudimentary fact-checks alongside some of Trump ’ s glaring lies about the election , but these fact-checks simply @ @ @ @ @ @ @ meddling on Biden ’ s behalf , in any respect .

In the time since Election Day, top Republicans including the outgoing president himself have spread lies about the electoral process, claiming that fraud swung the election to Biden. Significant portions of Trump’s base have taken the fraud lies seriously, and in his Wednesday statement announcing his decision to challenge the outcome, Hawley cited widespread Republican concern about election fraud as an excuse for his stunt, failing to acknowledge that many of these voters became convinced of the existence of fraud in the first place because of leaders’ rhetoric.
