Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Updating with Gov. Brian Kemp's response:

The 2020 election in Georgia was not stolen.

For nearly three years now, anyone with evidence of fraud has failed to come forward - under oath - and prove anything in a court of law. Our elections in Georgia are secure, accessible, and fair and will continue to be as long as I am governor.

The future of our country is at stake in 2024 and that must be our focus.

Anyone else remember when the my pillow guy had a 3 day event where he was gonna present his evidence of this? That was pretty fun. Hopefully this lives up to the hype and is even more wild and embarrassing than that one.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.one 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yup, and it turned out the data he presented was a bunch of nonsense.

My favorite part was when they brought out their tech experts and they had to question if it was a Windows computer or not LOL

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.one 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh, man, I missed that... I tuned in to see what they were going to do and they were just scrolling data, it was impossible to tell from the stream what it was.

But they made the mistake of turning the logs over to an actual researcher and he was like "Nah, ok, where's my money." LOL.

"He proved the data Lindell LLC provided, and represented reflected information from the November 2020 election, unequivocally did not reflect November 2020 election data," the arbitrators wrote. "Failure to pay Mr. Zeidman the $5 million prize was a breach of the contract, entitling him to recover."

My favorite part of that is that Zeidman is a Trumper too. One of them fucked over another one.

He's done more than one of them and actually is kicking off another tomorrow in Missouri I believe.

[–] pizza-bagel@kbin.social 12 points 1 year ago

Wow dude needs to get a better hobby lmao

Is he still being sued? The best thing about the OG one was it was announced he was being sued in the middle of it

[–] macrocephalic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Quick! Get events planning to start calling around landscaping supply stores!

Remember when that drunk lady testified in Michigan?
