"Rudy Giuliani’s ‘Disgraceful’ Courtroom Rant About Voter Fraud Didn’t Resemble Trump Lawsuit" My developing story, @LawCrimeNews Meanwhile, the live-tweet continues

So this just happened. Sen. Lindsey Graham tells reporters he's also spoken to Secretary of State of Arizona (and Nevada). To normalize the idea of these communications? Secretary of State of Arizona immediately responds that Graham's statement is false

Lindsey Graham told me he doesn’t remember the names of the Nevada officials he spoke with, but Nevada’s Secretary of State says: “I have not spoken with Senator Lindsey Graham or any other members of Congress” about election results.

 

This is false. I have not spoken with @LindseyGrahamSC.

South Carolina & @harrisonjaime... Respectfully - perhaps you should request an audit of the election results. Most of us were stunned that Mr. Graham won the state....

 

I missed the misspelling of Georgia at first. It's happened before.

Opinion | The longer Republicans cower to Trump, the more damage they do to democracy

 

Georgia's secretary of state stood firm on his account that Sen. Lindsey Graham had hinted that he should try to discard some ballots in Georgia, where a recount is underway after the state went for President-elect Joe Biden in the presidential election

 

Lindsey Graham's reported suggestion that Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger toss out all mail-in ballots from certain counties, including large numbers of legal ballots, is unacceptable. He should step down from his chairmanship immediately.

It’s the pandemic Trump perpetuated. Trump will never be able to hide from the horrific history of COVID-19. The death toll, the truth, the science, all documented. The coronavirus will forever be known as the Trump Virus.
