Trump campaign drops remaining lawsuit in Michigan

The Trump campaign withdrew its last remaining federal lawsuit in Michigan Thursday, falsely claiming that local election officials had declined to certify the Detroit-area’s vote tabulation even though they voted unanimously to do so Tuesday night.

At the heart of the Trump campaign’s claim are two affidavits — filed by the GOP election officials who joined Democrats to certify the votes in Wayne County Tuesday night — claiming they only did so under significant public pressure and an assurance that Michigan’s secretary of state would conduct a thorough review of their concerns about absentee voting https://www.politico.com/news/2020/11/19/trump-campaign-drops-lawsuit-michigan-438220

Giuliani's court bid to overturn Biden victory turns to farce

Rudy Giuliani returned to federal court for the first time since 1992 to argue for his client Donald Trump Tuesday, as the president ran out of lawyers and legal options, and was left using the former mayor as his frontman.

Giuliani's court bid to overturn Biden victory turns to farce as he forgets judge's name, calls other lawyer 'that angry man,' claims the 11 biggest cities are conspiring to steal election, then gets directions to the nearest martini bar.

Rudy Giuliani appeared in-person at federal court in Williamsport, PA
He has taken over Donald Trump's fight to throw out votes in Pennsylvania and other states Joe Biden carried
He forgot judge's name, called the opposition lawyer 'that angry man' and claimed 11 of the biggest cities had a conspiracy to steal the election
He claimed only a 'fool' would think it accidental that Biden won the biggest cities
District Judge William Brann gave him until 5pm Wednesday to file a new brief;
Earlier he said the legal team might lose in order to advance its case
'We're prepared in some of these cases to lose and to appeal and to get it to the Supreme Court,' Giuliani said

GA Sec of State says fellow Republicans are pressuring him to find ways to exclude legal ballots

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said Monday that he has come under increasing pressure in recent days from fellow Republicans, including Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.), to question the validity of legally cast absentee ballots in an effort to reverse President Trump’s narrow loss in the state.

In a wide-ranging interview about the 2020 election, Raffensperger expressed exasperation with a string of baseless allegations coming from Trump and his allies about the integrity of the Georgia results, including claims that Dominion Voting Systems, the Colorado-based manufacturer of Georgia’s voting machines, is a “leftist” company with ties to Venezuela that engineered thousands of Trump votes not to be counted.

The atmosphere has grown so contentious, Raffensperger said, that both he and his wife, Tricia, have received death threats in recent days, including a text to him that read, “You better not botch this recount. Your life depends on it.”

Chaos and Infighting erupts after Jenna Ellis and Giuliani attempt “Coup” of Trump Campaign

Over the weekend, Giuliani and his own team of lawyers, which also includes Trump campaign legal adviser Jenna Ellis, attempted what was described to ABC News as an internal campaign “coup”— an attempt to wrestle power away from the current longstanding Trump campaign leadership by claiming the president had given them full control moving forward, multiple sources said.

Giuliani’s team has taken over office space in the Trump campaign’s Arlington, Virginia, headquarters and Ellis, whom White House aides have previously expressed concern over, began telling Trump campaign staffers they now report to her. Ellis told the remaining campaign staff that they should only follow orders from people named “Rudy or Jenna” and to ignore any other directives from campaign leadership, sources familiar with the episode said. https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/infighting-attempted-coup-trump-team-erupts-chaos-giuliani/story?id=74257079

I concur. Till date, I marvel at how they won the 2016 election that produced Trump. They played dirty...they won dirty... nobody suspected. Trump Republicans tried playing same dirty game this election, they failed woefully. Democrats turned in massive votes that suppressed their dirt game... This time around, their plans no work

---Trump always associates with the 'best'---

According to T/M/Z

Lil Wayne's just been hit with a federal weapons charge and could face serious prison time if convicted.

The U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Florida has charged the rapper with 1 count of possession of a firearm and ammunition by a convicted felon. He faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted.

The charge is for a December 2019 incident where federal agents searched Wayne's plane at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport. He was a passenger on that plane, which made a stop in Florida on its way to California.

At the time ... Wayne's attorney, Howard Srebnick, had said his client was "cleared" to leave even though guns and drugs were reportedly found on the plane. It appears now the feds believe Wayne was wrongfully in possession of a weapon and ammunition.

He's scheduled to appear in court next month. We've reached out to Lil Wayne's team for comment, so far no word back.

Trump’s National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien Concedes That Biden Has Probably Won the Presidency

National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien appears to be the first senior Trump administration official to break with President Donald Trump over the results of the 2020 presidential election. O’Brien is one of the president’s own top national security officials and in an interview released from the Global Security Forum, O’Brien acknowledged a Biden-Harris victory looks likely.

MSNBC anchor Hallie Jackson shared the breaking news before running the clip in which O’Brien — speaking at a global security forum hosted by the non-partisan Soufan Center — said “We may have policy disagreements, but, look, if the Biden-Harris ticket is determined to be the winner, and, you know, obviously, things look that way now, we’ll have a very professional transition from the national security council.”

The National Security Advisor then noted the tradition of peaceful transition of power, saying “And the great thing is, this is the United States of America. We’ve passed the baton and had peaceful, successful transitions, even in the most contentious periods.” https://www.msnbc.com/hallie-jackson/watch/nsa-director-o-brien-promises-peaceful-transition-of-power-96003653513

Clinton conceded.She knew she had been beaten fair and square.
Trump made a speech after talking to her.

There was no dispute then.All votes were counted overnight and a projection was clear by early morn.

This time battleground states that Trump led overwhelmingly on election night are still counting and finding more Biden votes. And make no mistake, Hillary outperformed Biden in 2016 overwhelmingly except in four cities only where they are still finding Bidens votes 14 days later

---More people voted through mail-in voting because of the covid-19 and little or lack of social distancing on election day---reason why Trump since summer was going against early in-person voting and mail-in ballots as fraud---also Trump through his appointee as Postmaster General made sure the USPS didn't function as required---
