I like how she makes sure to mention she's the victim here. ❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️ This letter serves as a nice coda to this morally bankrupt administration.

I was mainly talking about from the time when she was a Federal Prosecutor. She left DOJ in 1988. Ancient history and likely nothing hinky back then. Her big case was the prosecution of Jimmy Chagra for his assassination of a federal judge in San Antonio. I think the courthouse is named for the judge there. Joe DiGenova and his wife were normal prosecutors. DiGenova was US Atty in DC and I interviewed with his office in 1984. His wife Victoria Toensing was at DOJ, Criminal Division. Both at Giuliani's crazy press conference part of the "elite team" but they have also gone off the rails. Literally every real, Fed Soc type that works for Trump and/or the WH has stayed a million miles away from this thing. The people Trump listed are all crazy, to a concerning degree. I had seen Jenna Ellis represent herself as legal counsel for Trump on Twitter for a while and I was always skeptical from her quotes, but now seeing her in these cases I can't imagine that she actually has litigated anytime recently. I haven't checked PACER.

This letter serves as a nice coda to this morally bankrupt administration. Murphy is crazy. She tosses around “The Honorable like candy at a kids party but can’t even get the names of the recipients right. She held a job at a DC law firm at some point, but did terrible work and was let go. So she retreated to public service and the confines of GOP patronage jobs. She fails to use the proper terms “ascertain” or President Elect and instead plays the victim and hides behind a technical excuse of no direct pressure from White House/GSA officials when we all know who she marches for. Such weak BS. And Toensig’s kid is a Hoya who currently works at DOJ ensuring loyalty to Dear Leader. May they all end up as crossing guards in low traffic zones.

I can't help but laugh at all the Dems chastising Trump and his followers for not recognizing defeat and peacefully passing on to the winner, Biden. Are these the same people that never recognized Trump as president, from even before he was sworn in? And now they are further chastising him for claiming there was fraud in the election without offering proof of fraud. Are these the same people that pursued the Russia hoax for about three years without proof of the supposed collaboration? Explain this, and how it helps America. www.wsj.com/articles/trump-exits-open-skies-treaty-moves-to-discard-observation-planes-11606055371He's making America's security weaker on the way out on purpose - why?

It’s a final gift to Russia. Nobody else benefits from this. I hope I’m alive when the full reckoning of Trumps entanglements and obligations to Russia is made. There is very clearly something there.

Yup, they're milking him like a cow, and they have fifty-seven more days to stock the dairy. I don't think it's the final gift.

He will remain Putin's puppet after he leaves office and remain a danger to US national security. Who knows what intelligence assessments and/or state secrets the sociopath is willing to sell to the highest bidder. The same applies to his corrupt family. Remember that Kushner was granted a security clearance only because the sociopath overruled the security professionals. Hopefully, his refusal to have daily intel briefings while President and his illiteracy are true.

Who to believe? A five-time draftdodging sociopath or General Mattis?
Trump lashed out Tuesday at former defense secretary Jim Mattis, calling him the “world’s most overrated general,” a day after the publication of an essay he co-wrote that urged Biden to move away from Trump’s “America First” doctrine.
The piece, published in Foreign Affairs, argued that the United States needs to more actively engage with other nations, saying the country “cannot protect itself or its interests without the help of others.”
“The United States today is undermining the foundations of an international order manifestly advantageous to U.S. interests, reflecting a basic ignorance of the extent to which both robust alliances and international institutions provide vital strategic depth,” Mattis and the other authors wrote. “In practice, ‘America first’ has meant ‘America alone.’ That has damaged the country’s ability to address problems before they reach U.S. territory and has thus compounded the danger emergent threats pose.”
The piece was penned along with Kori Schake, director of foreign and defense policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute; Jim Ellis, a fellow at the Hoover Institution and former commander of U.S. Strategic Command; and Joe Felter, a fellow at the Hoover Institution.
“That says it all about Mattis,” Trump said Tuesday in his tweet, adding that he “should have fired him sooner.”
“World’s most overrated general!” Trump said.
Mattis tendered his resignation in 2018 as he disagreed with Trump’s decision to pull U.S. forces out of Syria, numerous U.S. officials have said. -- The Washington Post, 11/2420, 8:50 am EST

Prediction: This goes nowhere. I filed a complaint with the DC Bar Counsel for Kellyeanne Conway's violations of the Hatch Act as found by the Offfice of Special Counsel and it punted, essentially calling it a "political" matter. Rep. Bill Pascrell Jr. (D-N.J.) filed complaints on Friday in five states against Giuliani and 22 other lawyers working with the Trump campaign, calling for them to be stripped of their law licenses for filing “frivolous” lawsuits and allegedly engaging in “conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation.” www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/11/24/rudy-giuliani-disbar/

Thee sociopath continues to do Putin's bidding on his way out the door (aside from the Flynn pardon). Since November 2020’s election, tweets from Trump and his inner circle show how close the Trump campaign is in tone and style to Russian disinformation—@donaldjtrumpjr, “Ever notice the “glitches” only go one way?”. Yet the current campaign by the president and his allies is different in one important way: total impact. The president has brought disinformation to an audience that the IRA could only dream of. In the week following Election Day, the hashtag #StopTheSteal was used over 1.5 million times on Twitter. Russian disinformation operations have shown some success, but Trump’s campaign has been in an entirely different league in terms of impact. The aftershock of Russian disinformation operations in 2016 strained some Americans’ trust in the electoral process Here, the president—armed with baseless conspiracies about voter fraud—is challenging that trust like never before. No need for Russian trolls; this damage is completely self-inflicted. www.lawfareblog.com/trumps-tweets-attacking-election-echo-russian-trolls

I hope the "snowflake generation" is paying attention. The way to honorably show disfavor for an election result is not to march peacefully. The best way to show disfavor is.
1) Sue states to stop vote counting while you're ahead.
2) Claim victory while ahead.
3) Allege fraud (with no evidence) when behind.
4) Ask the courts to disenfranchise millions of voters by throwing out legally caste ballots on the basis of said fraud that you have no proof of.
5) Roll out Rudy G to do... something.
6) Try and convince electors to give ignore the will of the people and give the state to you because your fee fee's are hurt and you deserve it.
7) Have your spineless party and media backers echo your fraud claims.
8) Have the same spineless party introduce legislation to make it harder for folks to vote based on the fraud claims you have no proof of.
These youngsters clearly don't get it...
P.S. In order to soothe bruised ego one should hide out in his place of residence (Not a safe space!) avoiding the public, and any interaction with reporters where he might be asked about his defeat, or b.s. law suits you brought forth because you're upset because of the results of an election.
