Secret Service provided just one text message after request for month’s worth
That entire organization needs to be fired.

There was no fraud in the 2020 election. That has been the consistent conclusion of every official who has looked at results in the contested states. Every single one.

Never happened. If you think so, prove it.

And try to stay on topic every now and again, how about?

In the modern GOP all that matters is you support Trump’s lies about the election
Essentially agree although uncertain it matters if ‘one supports Mr. Trump’s lies about the election’ or lies in general? For some, all that matters is that ‘he gets away with it’. & it does not matter what it is.

Mr. Trump knew that, & encouraged the mind numbing fanaticism from day one.

It's a reoccurring theme

At one point, Republican Arizona House Speaker Rusty Bowers recalled taking a call from Trump and Giuliani, during which he was pushed to sign off on a plan to remove the state’s pro-Biden electors and replace them with a slate loyal to Trump.

“​I said, ​’Look, you are asking me to do something that is counter to my oath​ that I swore to the Constitution, to uphold it, and I also swore to the constitution and the laws in the state of Arizona, and this is totally foreign as an idea or a theory to me,'” said Bowers, who did not say who specifically pitched the idea to him.

Last year's Capitol riot heard Tuesday that former President Donald Trump and his allies urged and intimidated Republican officials to partake in their scheme to keep Trump in power.

“‘I would never do anything of such magnitude without deep consultation with qualified attorneys,” he continued. “I said, ‘I’ve got some good attorneys, and I’m going to give you their names, but you’re asking me to do something against my oath, and I will not break​ my oath.'”

During the same call, Bowers recalled, Giuliani claimed to have evidence that hundreds of thousands of votes by illegal immigrants had swung the Grand Canyon State to Biden. But when the former New York City mayor was asked to produce proof of his claim during a later meeting with GOP legislators, he was forced to back down.

According to Bowers, Giuliani admitted: “We’ve got lots of theories, we just don’t have the evidence.”

“I don’t know if that was a gaffe or maybe he did not think through what he said, but both myself and others in my group … both remember that specifically,” Bowers said. “And afterwards, we were kind of laughing about it.”

Did someone herd him tell a lie, or were they telling a lie?
OR
Was Trump telling the truth, and somebody eavesdropping, and mistook him for telling a lie?
OR
Somebody thought Trump was telling a lie, they think, but it was just a nasty hangover, from a night of partying?
OR
None of the above.
