I believe the idea was that if they could get the Dominion machines, they could get a computer specialist to prove the machine was designed to manufacture Biden votes out of thin air. One of their theories was the Dominion machines were why Trump lost (and some RWNJs still believe that).
The reason that is important here is that it shows the conspiracy.
Well done!
I’m thinking that Randy Rainbow is already working on his next parody. Any guesses as to what song he will use? I’m thinking either “Midnight Train to Georgia” or “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia.”
I don’t know who that is. Should I?
A comedian who does political parody songs. Most are anti-Trump, anti-Republicans, and anti-right-wing generally. Like Weird Al Yankovic, he bases his parodies on actual songs. Here you go:
Enjoy!
Randy Rainbow? He’s a song parodist making show tunes into anti-Trump and anti-GOP ptolemics for years.
Edit: Too slow.
I amused myself by imagining the following hypothetical Q&A:
Q: Is the Orange Menace going to call up each of these 18 other defendants and, like he allegedly did for Walt Nauta, offer to hire lawyers for them to argue their individual charges, and pay for those lawyers?
A: No, he will not not.
Q: What will happen then?
A: The defendants will get their own lawyers as best they can, and those lawyers will advise them to cop plea deals in return for incriminating the Orange Menace.
Q: That sounds delightful!
A: It is!
I don’t think you’ll see that theory aired on Fox News anymore.

No, they seem to not be mentioning Dominion machines at all.
It’s WAY too soon to celebrate, folks.
The trial won’t actually get going for at least two years.
According to this three-minute nbcnews video clip in which two talking head lawyers discuss the timeline.
They point out that there is currently a similar RICO conspiracy trial running in Georgia courts which has been stuck in the jury selection process for eight months. And state courts do not move as fast as federal courts… they state that trial simply will not happen before the election. Because there are 19 other defendants. each of whom will file motions that will delay the proceedings.
I think it’s effectively guaranteed that Georgia’s legislature, which tilts Trumpy, and the executive branch, also GOP, will attempt to interfere with the proceedings. As linked earlier, they will soon have the power to remove DAs they don’t like, so I’d bet money Willis is gone in November. In Georgia the governor doesn’t have pardon power like in other states; it’s handled by a separate board but they’re appointed by the governor so it’s obviously still political (and occasionally fairly corrupt).
The indictments are inarguably good news. But it’s implausible in the extreme that we will now proceed to trial without crippling interference from the state’s political authorities.
“Lock him up yesterday” still works - in fact it’s even improved. 
Someone tell Mike Lindell they found them!
I reject the idea that there’s nothing to celebrate if it doesn’t affect the election.
Arguably, if they were willing to do that, they would’ve been much friendlier to Trump’s “request” to begin with.
I’m definitely going to start saying “The Night the Indictments Went Out In Georgia” no matter what song parodies come out.
But as I understand the GA process, no one is eligible for a pardon until he has already served his time (or a certain number of years of it) and admitted to the crime. In Trump’s case, that will amount to a life sentence, probably.
No way. Trump has never faced consequences in his life. One day in jail and he’ll be begging to get out.
He’s only brave now because he still doesn’t believe he’ll be convicted.
Yes. Now I don’t mind they renamed the Sears Tower after her.
♫ He’s indicted and it feels so good! ♫
Sorry if I missed it, but does that mean all of these people need to get a lawyer who can work in Georgia? Going to be a real feeding frenzy in the local law community.
