Here's a gift link for the WaPo story on the latest indictment: https://wapo.st/3qnummx

I'm frankly relieved to see the specific focus on indicting the folks harassing election workers; the Ruby Freeman case has been haunting me (cf https://www.niemanlab.org/2020/12/we-need-to-learn-how-to-talk-to-and-about-accidental-conspiracists/ )

The #SupremeCourt has rejected the #IndependentStateLegislature theory. The court rules that state constitutions can protect #VotingRights in federal #elections and state courts can enforce those provisions, a key opinion that should safeguard 2024 #ElectionIntegrity.

Long history of shenanigans in our elections. This is just one of them!

“It was 1980 and #JimmyCarter was in the White House, bedeviled by a hostage crisis in Iran that had paralyzed his presidency and hampered his effort to win a second term. Mr. #Carter’s best chance for victory was to free the 52 Americans held captive before Election Day. That was something that Mr. #Barnes said his mentor was determined to prevent.”

Today was movie day in my election integrity class. We deconstructed Pillow Guy and other "stop the steal" videos.

It really struck me how deep a background you need to reliably spot the faulty logic or outright fabrications. The students did fine, but if you're predisposed to believe the elections were rigged, these videos provide easy comfort food.

This evening's Last Week Tonight (the John Oliver show on HBO) did an excellent, through-yet-funny job debunking "stolen election" conspiracy theories like "2000 Mules", etc.

Disclaimer: I spent time doing picky fact checking with one of their producers on Friday; they really do their homework.

How to have the safest/most secure election in history:
1) Mail ballots to every address on earth
2) Let Zuckerberg control key election offices
3) Only harvest and cure ballots in Dem cities in purple states
4) Encourage racial violence and division
5) Ban news that hurts Dems
