Mike Lindell's Election Shenanigans, FrankSpeech and #MyPillow #FAILS - 6/28/61 Cancer / Ox

Foggy, did you see my message about that incredible deal for MySlippers? Still have 100 pairs in my cart and it might be screwing up their inventory management which would be horrible. Do you want the full 100 pairs in Chestnut? Still need the size information, not sure if 12W is correct. They are flying off the shelves (well, actually they aren't). If you already bought them yourself, I think I see them in dachshund size so Gregg may want them for the 699th (that'll cover the first 50 vicious killers).

Wouldn't that be the first 25? I think Gregg would want them to have a nice, warm slipper for each foot so they can luxurite after a well fought battle!

Far-right county throws out voting machines – with nothing to replace them
Shasta county’s decision to move to a hand-count system has drawn support from the election denial movement

In Shasta county, a conservative stronghold of 180,000 in the far north of blue California, a new vision for elections is taking shape: paper ballots, no machines and results tallied entirely by hand.

It’s a vision predicated on the false belief that voting machines helped to steal the presidency from Donald Trump, and that the systems by which millions of Americans vote are unsafe. But in Shasta, they just might make that vision reality.

Shasta became a hotbed for far-right politics in the pandemic years, and election deniers have found allies on the county’s governing body, the board of supervisors. In March the board’s hard-right majority cut ties with Dominion Voting Systems, the company at the center of baseless conspiracy theories about election fraud.

Last week the supervisors took steps to replace it with a hand-count system. The county ended its contract with Dominion before establishing a replacement and now, with a potential special election months away and the presidential primary a year out, it has no voting system in place as it embarks on a plan to create an entirely new system from scratch.

The registrar of voters, the elected official who oversees voting in the county, warned it would be a challenging and time-consuming effort – requiring more than 1,200 new workers at a cost of at least $1.6m – and still far less accurate than the machines the county has used for years. The deputy secretary of state has warned the county could violate multiple federal and state laws by not selecting a certified voting system. But the board of supervisors moved ahead.

The county’s decision could have long-lasting consequences for the region and provide a framework for election deniers on how to advance their agenda across the US, all while giving oxygen to false claims that the nation’s voting technology is compromised.

Some of the counties where Lindell claimed machines changed the counts were small counties still doing hand counts. I assume the Shasta folks ignore that part as fake news even though it was mentioned by the Idaho government which is not a bastion of the left.

Mike Lindell claims the Trump indictment unified the entire country, and he has been talking to a bunch of liberal democrats and they all told him it’s a sham and they are supporting Trump now.

In addition to being a major advertiser for Fox, Mike Lindell also regularly promotes outlandish conspiracy theories. Thanks to the Dominion lawsuit we now know how Tucker Carlson's producers handled that predicament behind the scenes.

Attention MAGA GOP: Mike Lindell is absolutely right on this. NO #VoteByMail or Absentee Ballots in 2024. Any Republican trying to do this will be pummeled with a MyPillow 2.0 (the best sleep just got better and don't miss the Buy 1, Get 1 Free sale). Again, NO MAIL-IN VOTING.

Yeah, good luck with that.

But but but it worked out so well for them in Wisconsin! We need to back Mike up on this for all GOP voters.

Wisconsin Republicans once more felled by a common foe: The mail
“The message to our voters needs to change,” said a veteran GOP operative.
By ZACH MONTELLARO 04/05/2023 04:40 PM EDT

Republicans lost big in Wisconsin. But their downfall came well before Tuesday. Liberal Milwaukee County judge Janet Protasiewicz crushed former conservative state Supreme Court Justice Dan Kelly. The race wasn’t particularly close. Protasiewicz won by 11 points, or over 200,000 votes.

One reason she won: She had a big head start on votes before polls even opened on Tuesday. At least 435,000 people voted early, either by mail or in-person. Democratic Party officials estimated ahead of the election that Protasiewicz banked at least a 100,000 vote advantage from that bucket of voters. “Democrats are playing a totally different game than Republicans are,” said Rebecca Kleefisch, a Republican who has served as Scott Walker’s lieutenant governor and lost a gubernatorial primary last year.

Democrats have embraced a big mail and absentee voting strategy in the past few cycles, but Republicans have been skeptical — in part because of loud criticism of the practice from former President Donald Trump. But it comes at a cost. Republicans are increasingly finding themselves in the hole before Election Day even arrives. “We need to do what is legal, the same way Democrats are doing what is legal,” Kleefisch said. “Republicans sometimes cling to strategies that are not embracing all of the new opportunities that have been afforded.”

The lack of mail strategy creates a huge financial and get-out-the-vote disadvantage for Republicans — and after Tuesday’s blowout, some in the party are renewing calls for that to change. “You can’t be down several hundred thousand votes and think that you’re going to make it up in 13 hours on Election Day. I mean, that’s just not a math equation that works for our side,” said state Republican Party executive director Mark Jefferson.

Clearly, Mark Jefferson is a TRAITOR and must be thrown out of the MAGA GOP.

[humblescribe]

I wonder if the amount of money Lindell spent on advertising on Fox will come out at trial. That might provide some insight as to just how reliant Ucker Carlson and the other misinformation spreaders are on his business.

[Gregg]

The delicious irony is that for decades Republicans dominated absentee voting and there are a lot of their voters who genuinely need it.
But now they've convinced their base that somehow, if they vote early, there vote won't get counted and if the Democrats vote early their votes get counted more than once. Another own goal brought to the GOP b Trump, the mango that killed a party.

[Luke]

Absolutely, Gregg. It's one of the best political self-fails in history. Now they can't figure out how to get out of it and Mike Lindell is doing his part to keep them fu*ked. It's delicious.

What do Lt Col Root Beer and Lt Biscuit think of all this? Have been eagerly awaiting a new photo but figured they were on a training mission or keeping things under control in NYC this week. Look at these killers in formation ready to pounce, attack and destroy. People are saying it was the 699th that made Marj Greene flee her NYC rally in just 10 minutes, you can see on the video when she saw Lt Biscuit out of the corner of her eye and immediately ran away. Lindell has been extra jumpy, he knows the jig is almost up.

On The Lindell Report last night, Mike announced that in AUGUST (no dates yet) they'll be having another fabulous event! He said it's turning into an Annual Event (of FAIL ) First was the Cyber Symposium, then the Moment of Truth Summit, and this year is the Election Crime Bureau Summit! "It'll all come to a head this August!"

And there's a billboard on I-75 in downtown Detroit for the ECB! They say nearly 500,000 see it a day [Mike: "Wowwww"] and Brandon says "Traffic is stopped dead looking at it".





Also, Foggy, now Mike is clearing out the PERCALE SHEETS for as low as $25! AND there are a few more pairs of SLIPPERS left. Use Promo Code L77. They're going on national teevee tomorrow so act quickly because when they're gone, they're gone.

I can tell you from personal experience that the only thing that tops traffic on I-75 in Downtown Detroit is construction.

I dunno if this has anything to do with I75 or not, but I was talking to a lady from New York the other day that said she once got lost in downtown Detroit and ended up in Windsor?!?

Extraordinarily easy to do. If you're on the freeway, you can get forced onto the Ambassador Bridge if you're not paying attention. It's actually designed that way because Marty Maroun is a greedy asshole.

ETA: I was at the press conference where the Gordie Howe International Bridge was announced. This is the competitor to the Ambassador Bridge expected to be completed next year, after several years of Trumpian delay by Maroun.

That was the excuse we used one time on my first business trip to Detroit about 30 years ago, when the local sales guy "accidentally" ended up in Windsor. Since it was late at night, there weren't many businesses open. He ended up "accidentally" pulling up in front of a fairly busy club called Jason's to ask directions back to Detroit. We couldn't fathom why it was so busy, so we went inside to find out why, and then we understood.

The sales guy said that was a pretty standard excuse for ending up at Jason's, which unfortunately has now closed.

► Show Spoiler

Jason's was the most legendary strip club in Canada back in the day...

Mile Lindell's rant last night on his own news channel is a joy to behold. You'd think the Fox News settlement with Dominion would make him rethink his strategy, but far from it, it's accelerated his delusional state.

His ranting starts 5 mins in
https://frankspeech.com/video/mike-lind ... t-dominion

I was bantering with orlylicious about it on Twitter:

Mike Lindell's delusional state is getting worse, a legal freight train is fast approaching, head on, and he's still behaving like Tony Montana in the finale of Scarface.
