"Giuliani asks DHS about seizing voting machines"

[BigmanPigman]

Rudy Giuliani called Ken Cuccinelli, second in command at the Department of Homeland Security, on Thursday night and asked him whether DHS could seize voting machines, a source familiar with the call confirmed to Axios.

The state of play: Cuccinelli responded that DHS does not have that authority, the source said.

Why it matters: The call, first reported by the New York Times' Maggie Haberman, is another manifestation of President Trump's contest an election that was called for President-elect Joe Biden six weeks ago.

On Friday night, as first reported by The New York Times, Trump discussed commandeering voting machines and appointing conspiracy-minded election lawyer Sidney Powell as special counsel to inspect the machines.

1. I seriously cannot tell if I am reading fact or The Onion any more.

If this is fact, Trump is now officially completely delusional.

2. They could maybe send her those twenty year old machines

with the hanging chads.
I would actually like to know how that worked.

5. I'm more concerned by the absolute silence from the great majority

of repub leadership while all this madness makes headlines. The lack of opposition to proposed seditious activity should concern us all - they control the Senate and a whole bunch of states.

6. Go Paper Ballots. They cannot be hacked.

Voting machines are a waste of money.

In Minnesota, we have paper ballots with safe counter boxes that tabulate the number of voters per polling stations.
