Sidney Powell, who has pushed some of the most extreme conspiracy theories around the election of Joe Biden, filed the lawsuits late Wednesday, according to a post on Twitter. The two cases have similar themes of problems linked to voting machines, mail-in ballots and deceased Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez.

Both of Powell’s latest lawsuits were riddled with typographical errors.

The Michigan lawsuit, which was on the court website, was frequently marred by formatting problems that removed the spacing between words. For example: “TheTCFCenterwastheonlyfacilitywithinWayneCountyauthorizedtocountthe ballots.”

In the Georgia complaint, which was only available on Powell’s website, the word district in the court name was misspelled twice on the first page of the document. First there was an extra c for “DISTRICCT” and then, a few words later, “DISTRCOICT.”

Powell goes on to allege that ballot stuffing “has now been amplified and rendered virtually invisible by computer software created and run by domestic and foreign actors for that very purpose.”

“Mathematical and statistical anomalies rising to the level of
impossibilities, as shown by affidavits of multiple witnesses, documentation,
and expert testimony evince this scheme across the state of Georgia,” she wrote.

Powell said “especially egregious conduct” arose in Forsyth, Paulding, Cherokee, Hall and Barrow counties.

About that “Water Leak” in Atlanta
Powell also alleged that a water leak that led the evacuation of a voting center at State Farm Arena was evidence of even more fraud.

Melania Still Has to Give a F--k About Christmas (😁 Vanity Fair)

Melania Trump is once again working her “ass off at the Christmas stuff” even though “you know, who gives a fuck about the Christmas stuff and decorations.” This year, her last as first lady, she’s carrying out her prescribed duties as if it were like any other year. She’s doing it all as though she wasn’t recorded besmirching the name of the holiday that her husband famously saved from the dreaded P.C. police.

On Monday she welcomed the Christmas tree. In years past, a couple of beautiful Clydesdales have taken a break from starring in beer commercials to escort the tree to its penultimate resting place, the Blue Room of the White House. Often, both halves of the first couple are there to greet the fallen fir and the family who grew it—Don in his wide tie, Melania in a tartan coat, serving literal Mrs. Claus to the people.

This year Don was not there, and Melania’s coat was herringbone, but otherwise, it was business as usual. She made some conversation with the two men steering the sleigh and dutifully smiled for the camera alongside the Taylors, who grew the Fraser fir—one photo with mask on, one mask off.

CBS - bull riding on an aircraft carrier. Coming on now.

USS Lexington set to host Professional Bull Riders tonight on CBS

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — The aircraft carrier is being transformed into an arena fit for extreme cowboys known as the Professional Bull Riders.

"They will erect an entire professional bull riding arena on the bough of the flight deck," Steve Banta, executive director of USS Lexington Museum said.

Banta said it takes 300 tons worth of equipment to get everything ready.
And while there's some heavy lifting involved, it's nothing the USS Lexington can't handle.

Pitt vs. Virginia Tech will be first game with players required to wear face coverings in the field

Because we have to have the football game

https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/pitt-vs-virginia-tech-will-be-first-game-with-players-required-to-wear-face-coverings-in-the-field-of-play/

Face coverings have been a part of college football sidelines this fall ... sort of ... but to this point they have not been present on the field during play. That's going to change Saturday when Pitt and Virginia Tech face off at 4 p.m. ET in Pittsburgh. According to a Pitt release, players will wear face coverings while on the field and sidelines "in alignment with recent guidance from state officials regarding the current health climate." The statement also said that those rules extend to Virginia Tech as well.

The office of Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf issued a new order for face coverings this week, effective Nov. 17. The new order clamps down on wearing masks indoors and outdoors if people are unable to maintain social distancing. That order is extended to athletes if "they cannot maintain sustained physical distance from persons outside of their household. This includes while actively engaged in workouts, competition, and on the sidelines, in the dugout, etc. If sustained six-foot distancing can be maintained, face coverings may be removed when outdoors."

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Philadelphia Eagles may have to do the same when they play their next home games over the next 10 days. The Steelers, per a spokesperson, said that they were exempt from the guidelines, but the governor's office has insisted that's not the case. Additionally, Penn State issued a separate statement on Friday saying it, too, is exempt from the order.



To put it lightly, wearing masks has been done more liberally on sidelines than the rules intended. But there has been little to no evidence of on-field transmission, according to more than a dozen people who spoke with Ross Dellenger of Sports Illustrated. Wearing face coverings adds another layer of difficulty on top of what is already a difficult year. There's a good chance wearing masks on the field won't be widely adopted.
