Doesn’t matter. We didn’t realize they were ballots. We thought it was sea hash. Had a right lit party and got mighty fucked up, let me tell you.

North Korean boats in a harbor in Maine. Boy, our navy ain’t what it used to be. Thanks, Trump!

I’m more than a bit surprised that the NK ship didn’t get high-centered atop the Red October on the Penobscot River.

Maybe they’re more cunning than we give them credit for.

> Naw, he doesn’t even believe Bill Barr. Well, at least he hears what he wants to. I said to him "what about Barr saying “we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election.”? He corrected me, saying “Barr said ‘ _ **to date** _ , we have not seen fraud …’ which means the Justice Dept. is still in the process of investigating it”.

I would be tempted to tell someone like that, “Sure there was massive fraud, which the Democrats pulled off despite not being in charge of the government. This proves they’re smarter than Republicans and deserve to be in charge. HAW-HAW!”

[Not really]

I’m sure _this_ tranche is completely different from every other steaming heap of BS they’ve unveiled at press conferences.

It would be great to parade in a bunch of the so-called “dead” voters. In zombie makeup.

If the election had been before Halloween, this would have been a great costume. Zombie like voters with “Biden-Harris” signs.

OK, I just saw the video of (some of) her “testimony”. She’s had a liquid lunch, and maybe a hit from her purse just prior to entering the room.

The part that gets me about that article:

What in the nine hells have they been doing for the last month??

And what do they expect the courts to do if it takes _years_? Trump is gone on 1/20/21.

Like everything else, the goal isn’t to change the election results. It’s to delegitimize the election. When it gets thrown out, they can say it was because there was no time for a thorough investigation.

No, a _Russian_ sub. I saw it in this documentary:

That’s what I immediately thought of… I’m surprised by how many situations this line is appropriate in. Especially in that Boris Badanov accent.

On Facebook a friend of a friend told me to “open my eyes” about the election fraud. Then he mentioned this… [Bill Information - Senate Resolution 410; Regular Session 2019-2020 - PA General Assembly](https://www.legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/billinfo/billinfo.cfm?syear=2019&sind=0&body=S&type=R&bn=410)  
Is this a new tactic? I haven’t heard of this one.

For those who don’t want to click on a link without knowing what it is… It’s on the Pennsylvania government site It’s a resolution to dispute the election in Pennsylvania.
