Election 2020 Legal Updates

Thanks @Right_in_Virginia I saw it earlier.  John Eastman is a force to be reckoned with.

If the court calls for it, would Texas do the oral argument?  @Bigun

I'm sure they would confer and come up with a fine advocate for that job.  It's really pretty clear cut IMHO.  I could do it except for remembering all of the matters of proper court manners.

I have accidentlally run into a number of absolutely disgusting clips at YT, that had no business getting air.  And 2020 election fraud violates terms and conditions?  Too bad, there isn't an conservative alternative to YT.

Rumble is the new YouTube and Parler the new Twitter ...... (new means for conservative news)

Top notch @Bigun

I had to look this up.  "Intervene" is to formally join a lawsuit.

The 17 state amici brief filed with the Texas lawsuit against four defendant states:

Wow! 16 states have joined Texas in the suit? That's awesome!!

EDIT: No, 16 states have filed an amicus brief in the case, but they have not joined Texas in the suit.

JUST IN: YouTube says it will "start removing any piece of content uploaded today (or anytime after) that misleads people by alleging that widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome of the 2020 U.S. Presidential election."

@Right_in_Virginia - did you see Dan Bongino's show today? He was daring YouTube to ban him. Said it would be the best promotion for Rumble ever. He kept referring to them as "Screw Tube".

[BassWrangler]

Thanks...  I've done Duck Duck as an alternative to Google, and Parler.  Thanks for the Rumble suggestion.  I'll check it out.

@catfish1957 - just remember that Duckduckgo is nothing but a UI on top of the Bing API. The search results are coming from Bing.

No, I missed it @BassWrangler   -- Sounds like a missed a classic!

Bongino's on Blaze, right?  I'll never see it because  won't send one red cent to Glenn Beck.

Bongino used to have a commentary on "Conservative Review".  I just discovered he now has his own podcast.

Ok .. you don't like Beck...I get that, but Levin, Hannity, Carlson and other are going to need a place to go -- Beck is already set up with his own Radio and TV broacast and O'Reilly is already a daily quest.

Blaze is like Fox America:  Paid subscription only.  I refused to buy that, either, back when they were thought to be conservative.

I can't stand Beck because of the Blackboard crap, treating the audience like 5th Graders, and I especially didn't like his constant attempts to stampede people.  I switched him off well before FNC bounced him for poor ratings (I guess I wasn't the only one).

Yeah, you go ahead and "move forward".   All the better for us real conservatives (vs. you fakey ones) to get a running start for that much-deserved kick in the @ss (call it Karma) that your side will be receiving.

Here's an update: As part of their ongoing censorship program, Youtube will be blocking and taking down videos about election fraud.

The policy goes into effect Dec. 9, even though the electoral college deadline has yet to occur.

“We will start removing any piece of content uploaded today (or anytime after) that misleads people by alleging that widespread fraud or errors changed the outcome of the 2020 U.S. presidential election, in line with our approach towards historical U.S. presidential elections.”

It really gets the point across to deaf people.

[mountaineer]

I refuse to watch videos people send me. If it's that important, put it in writing.

Yeah.  One of the things I don't like about MeWe..."cold intro" videos.  Bookface and MeWe don't have CC available, so they are mostly scroll-past.  I can hear well enough if I turn the sound up, but I don't like to do that because it bugs the Missus.  Yesterday was an exception so we could watch Starship SN8 become molten metal.

NO, CNN frauds, that is not what is being asked.  What is being asked is that the Constitution be followed.  You are bunch of clowns and hacks, who take orders from Jeff Zucker, who among the sleaziest of media liars (H/T James O'Keefe and Project Veritas)

It's ultimately up to Mike Pence.  He'll still be President of the Senate until 1/20/21 on 1/5, no matter what happens.
