"More on the Security of the 2020 US Election" [Bruce] Schneier on Security — https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2020/11/more-on-the-security-of-the-2020-us-election.html "Last week I signed on to two joint letters about the security of the 2020 election. The first was as one of 59 election security experts, basically ***saying that while the election seems to have been both secure and accurate (voter suppression notwithstanding), we still need to work to secure our election systems...*** [...] The second [letter] was a more general call for election security measures in the US... These pile on to the November 12 statement from Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) and the other agencies of the Election Infrastructure Government Coordinating Council (GCC) Executive Committee. While I’m not sure how they have enough comparative data to claim that “the November 3rd election was the most secure in American history,” they are certainly credible in saying that “there is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised.” We have a long way to go to secure our election systems from hacking. Details of what to do are known. Getting rid of touch-screen voting machines is important, but ***baseless claims of fraud don’t help."***

Rather than defend President Trump’s specific actions, his conservative champions change the subject to: (1) the biased “fake news” media, (2) over-the-top liberals, (3) hypocrites on the left, *** (4) anyone else victimizing Mr. Trump or his supporters and (5) whataboutism, as in “What about Obama?” “What about Clinton?” *** "It is one thing to criticize Trump’s arrogance, recklessness, narcissism, and lawlessness, but quite another to take a stand in favor of his impeachment and removal, or now of his defeat." --Charlie Sykes, TheBulwark, August 14, 2020 ***The good doctor just demo-ed these The reality today: https://i.imgur.com/mdCIW17.jpg

Might have known - Lindsey Graham is kickin' up dust in everyone's eyes, so his TUSCL twin, rickdugan, is doing the same. The Disingenuous Histrionic These individuals combine the histrionic’s more adaptive social skills, charm, and ability to read the motives and desires of others with a rather calculated malevolence. Obviously, this variant is more egocentric, more willingly insincere, and probably more conscious of their manipulations than is the basic histrionic pattern. ***They often seem to enjoy conflict, gaining a degree of gratification or amusement from the excitement and tension thereby produced.***

Everyone knows Georgia was on the wrong side of history in the Civil War, they carved a monument to that defeat onto a mountainside. Less well known is Georgia's lackluster performance during the War of Independence: "The situation in lowland Georgia was much the same, except that the planters there were even more reluctant to sever ties with Britain. Loyalist sentiment was so strong that, after refusing to participate in the First Continental Congress, the colony sent only one delegate to the Second Congress: a Yankee transplant... Another Georgian “founding father,” James Wood, became so frustrated with the planters’ early failure to support the war that he returned to his native Pennsylvania and joined the militia there. A later delegate to the Continental Congress, John Zubly, expressed the Deep Southern point of view to that body in no uncertain terms: “A republican government is little better than a government of devils.” The British easily recaptured the Deep South at the end of 1778 [...] Having accepted the loss of Yankeedom, London focused on reclaiming Georgia and the Carolinas, rightly judging the Deep Southerners to be tepid revolutionaries. In January 1779 a small [British] invasion force of 3,500 recaptured Savannah without firing a shot and in a few weeks had complete control of lowland Georgia. (Docile Georgia would be the only rebel colony to be formally reabsorbed into the empire, where it would remain for the rest of the war.)

Finally, one recent report about one of Trump's complaints and the courts File under reported claims vs proof: "An attorney for the Trump campaign admitted in court on Tuesday that a lawsuit against the local elections board is not alleging election fraud. Trump campaign attorney Jonathan S. Goldstein made the statement while arguing that the Montgomery County Board of Elections must halt the counting of 592 mail-in ballots. During the oral arguments, the judge asked Goldstein if the campaign is alleging fraud. “Your Honor, accusing people of fraud is a pretty big step,” Goldstein said. “And it is rare that I call somebody a liar, and I am not calling the Board or the DNC or anybody else involved in this a liar.” “I am asking you a specific question,” the judge pressed, “and I am looking for a specific answer. Are you claiming that there is any fraud in connection with these 592 disputed ballots?” “To my knowledge at present, no,” Goldstein replied. “Are you claiming that there is any undue or improper influence upon the elector with respect to these 592 ballots?” the judge asked. “To my knowledge at present, no,” Goldstein conceded. The National Review, a conservative publication, noted that Trump campaign lawsuits like the one in Montgomery County have been ending “not with a bang, but a whimper.” “It is one thing to fume on Twitter that there is a sinister effort to steal an election; it is another thing to assert that sweeping claim in a court of law, before a judge, under penalty of perjury and/or disbarment,” National Review correspondent Jim Geraghty wrote." — https://www.rawstory.com/2020/11/trump-attorney-openly-admits-to-judge-under-penalty-of-perjury-that-theres-no-election-fraud/
