Sweet. Haircut in an hour and then reading material for a very unDry December 30. LMK what a Russian money drop looks like if you beat me to it.

The Ginni transcript is FULL of goodies. I've been trying to skim the good stuff (its 130 pages) off of Post and Twitter in between work calls.

😑

Were you involved in any efforts to change the results of the 2020 election?

To change? I was involved in trying to identify fraud in a timely manner by certain States that I had heard through friends or whatnot or the media. So I certainly was involved in things that were trying to get to the truth, yes.

[NewOrleans]

Answer the question, Claire.

were you also saying you regretted sending, forwarding these text messages, or your regret was only that they became public?

Mrs. Thomas. I regret the tone and content of these texts. And other than that, it was an emotional time, and I was texting with a friend who I had known a long time. So I really find my language imprudent and my choices of sending the context of these emails unfortunate.

Mr. Schiff. And what in particular disturbs you in hindsight about the content of the texts?

Mrs. Thomas. You know, Iwould take them all back fi Icould today. comfortable with any of them being- - I wish I could have rewritten them.

Mr. Schiff. Can you explain a little bit more about what causes you to regret sending them?

Mrs. Thomas. It was just an emotional time, Congressman.

Mr. Schiff. I'm just trying to understand, is it something about the content of them that you now disagree with or what?

Mrs. Thomas. Yes. It was the content of them I'm not comfortable with.

[NewOrleans]

Ms. Cheney. So despite the fact that the courts had ruled in a number of
instances, in fact judges appointed by President Trump had ruled very clearly and specifically that these allegations- -that the campaign's claims were not supported by the
evidence, you were aware of those rules and just chose to ignore them? I'm just trying to understand.

Mrs. Thomas. |just think there's still a lot of things that are still being uncovered. And so Ibelieved there was fraud andirregularity, contrary to clearly what you believe.

[NewOrleans]

She is the embodiment of every stupid fucking Republican in existence.  Look at this stupid, stupid woman. 


Mr. Raskin. Mrs. Thomas, what was the most significant case of voter fraud that you were concerned with after the election took place?

Mrs. Thomas. Ican't say that I Was familiar at that time with any specific evidence. I was just hearing it from news reports and friends on the ground, grassroots activists who were inside of various polling places that found things suspicious. So l don't know. Iwas not an expert off the fraud and irregularities that were starting to be talked about.

Raskin. I see. And what are the episodes of fraud that still concern you, even in the wake of more than 60 Federal and State court decisions rejecting allegations of fraud and irregularity?

Mrs. Thomas. What do I think today?

Mr. Raskin. Yes. I thought you were saying that you continue to say that things
were being found about fraud.

Mrs. Thomas. Right. There seems to be a lot of people still moving around, identifying ways that there were - - we'll see. We'll see what happens. I don't know specific instances.

(a couple pages later)

Q. Is it fair to say that your view of the existence of fraud at the time was based on what other people said and not your own consideration of the actual evidence?

A. That is true.

[NewOrleans]

This is all I can stand for tonight because I’m so angry. But here it is.  They are immune to facts.  They refuse to listen, look for, validate information. They care only about what they’ve decided is the story and nothing exists outside of that story.  

Q. Did you, while you heard about different, you know, fraud and irregularities -- you mentioned Detroit -- did you also follow when people would debunk
those, so when they would consider evidence and decide, no, there actually wasn't fraud in this circumstance? Did you follow any of those?

A. I don't remember seeing any of those.

Q. So, for example, the allegation about suitcases in Georgia- do you recall or do you follow any of the, kind of, followup that was done by Georgia officials or Federal law enforcement officials on that matter after the allegations were made?


A I did not.

[basilosaurus]

She's disgusting. As his her husband.

[NewOrleans]

Ginni doesn’t remember a whole lot 🙄

Including “I don't remember what I was thinking at the time” and “I can't speak to what I believe when I wrote that back then.” Then who can?

[NewOrleans]

60 pages in and the strategy is just framing herself to be a well-intentioned dumb bunny.

So, Mrs. Thomas, you mentioned that what you were doing was looking for fraud
and irregularities.

Mrs. Thomas. Yes.

Ms. Cheney. But then you also - - I think I understood you to say that you never saw any list of fraud or irregularities.

Ms. Cheney. Right. I know. I wasn't very deep; I admit it.

Ms. Cheney. And so - - but you're confident that there was fraud and
irregularities?

Mrs. Thomas. I was hearing it, Congresswoman, from a lot of people I trust.

[NewOrleans]

What about "the whole coup"? What did you mean by that?

A. I don't know. I don't know. You know, it was an emotional time. I was - - I don't know. I'm sorry these texts exist. I don't know.

[NewOrleans]

Q In the first - - before sort of the text of the email, there's a part that's in red and underlined. It says, "Do not forward this. This is for you to ingest and take action with others, please. Do not forward (unless you take off my name, please)." Did you write that?

A Looks like I did.

Q Why were you asking that the email not be forwarded unless your name was
removed?

A can't remember why I would have.

[NewOrleans]

omg 😆

did you know Jake Hoffman before this event?

A. Yes. He's a friend.

Q. Okay. And did you, during the November/December of 2020 timeframe have discussions with him about his role as an elector at all in the State of Arizona?

A. No. I forgot that he was an elector.

[NewOrleans]

🤣

Did you have a sense at all when you were there that there might be violence later in the day?

A I had no sense of violence. That would be -- that was so foreign to any Trump event I'd been to up to that point. So Iwas shocked when Igot home and started hearing the reports about the violence.
When I looked around, thinking back, I think I saw a lot of people that didn't look like regular Trump supporters, I'd say, that looked a little militaristic.

[NewOrleans]

Done. She complains and moans about violence on the left, you focus only on violence on the right, the media, and Democrats challenged 2000 and 2004 so why can’t her lil old grassroots. 🤮 I hate her and hope she has canker sores.
