Read: Full transcript of Donald Trump’s call to Brad Raffensperger

The infamous conversation has become a focal point of Fulton DA Fani Willis’ investigation into alleged election interference in Georgia.
www.atlantanewsfirst.com www.atlantanewsfirst.com
Brad Raffensperger: Well, I’ve listened to what the president has just said. President Trump, we’ve had several lawsuits and we’ve had to respond in court to the lawsuits and the contentions of. We don’t agree that you have one. We don’t — I didn’t agree about the 200,000 number that you mentioned. I’ll go through that point by point. What we have done is we gave our state Senate about one and a half hours of our time going through the election issue by issue. And then on the state House Government Affairs Committee, we gave them about two and a half hours of our time going back point by point on all the issues of contention. And then just a few days ago, we met with our U.S. congressmen, Republican congressmen, and we gave them about two hours of our time talking about this past election. Going back primarily what you’re — what you’ve talked about, you’re focused on primarily, I believe is the absentee ballot process. I don’t believe that you’re really questioning the Dominion machines because we did a hand retally, a 100% retally of all the ballots and compared that to what the machine said. It came up with virtually the same results. Then we did the recount. We’ve got virtually the same results. So I guess we could probably take that off the table. I don’t think there’s an issue about that.

…

All I want to do is this: I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more that we have because we won the state.
..


President Donald Trump: Well, you better check on the ballots because they are shredding ballots, Ryan. I’m just telling you, Ryan, they’re shredding ballots. And, uh, you should look at that very carefully because that’s still illegal. You know, you may not even believe it because it’s so bad, but, but they’re shredding ballots because they think we’re going to eventually get there because we’ll eventually get into Fulton. You know, it’s in my opinion, is my opinion, it’s never too late. So it’s a little double double subject, though. So that’s the story fellows. Look, we need only 11,000 votes. We have far more than that as it stands now. We’ll have more and more. And do you have provisional ballots at all, Brad? Provisional ballots?

Brad Raffensperger: Provisional ballots are allowed by state law.
…
So what? So what are we going to do here, folks? I only need 11,000 votes. Fellas, I need 11,000 votes. Give me a break. You know, we have that in spades already, or we can keep it going.

Yeah, this definitely sounds like a “reasonable request to maintain the signature verification standards of umpteen election cycles in every state.”, as opposed to a common crook trying to put the squeeze on officials to break rules in his favour.

I’m sure any jury will interpret it that way.

The Trump cases have many similarities to the way the Mafia operated. The tactics are straight out of the playbook of one of his mentors, Roy Cohn, most (in)famous for being Joseph McCarthy's lead prosecutor. Later, Cohn would become an attorney for Trump, George Steinbrenner, Mafia bosses and other shady New York creatures. There's a decent chance Cohn was a liaison between Trump and the Mafia, given that he represented both and that building anything in New York without dealing with the Mafia was more or less impossible during that era.

Predictably, the Feds have rolled out that playbook in reply. Rather than try to allege something hard to prove like seditious intent (Trump is infamous for refusing all forms of written correspondence, probably due to Cohn's advice), they're hitting Trump on a bunch of lesser charges they can make stick. If they stack up enough charges with six month sentences, they can put Trump away for good.

Re contact with the Mafia I wasn’t aware of this testimony

Pete, I'm not well versed in either cocaine or security systems. How many days/weeks/months of surveillance footage does the White House keep on hand for there... tell me again how many cameras do they operate? Is there a Youtube channel with the WH camera feed? And what are we looking for here, is someone walking around with a box labeled "cocaine" or is someone wearing a high-vis vest that reads "I use illicit drugs?" Just figured I could do the research myself if only someone helped me know what to look for.

I pretty sure the security services know exactly who was where and when. The President can’t even gat in a car without loads of them checking everything. To imagine ‘someone’ who the security services haven’t seen, can wander around the White House and take drugs is pushing credibility to the limits…they know…….

Are you equating this "issue" to a coup d'etat?

I'll also say this.

If you know anyone who has used or currently uses cocaine, or most drugs for that matter, it borders on preposterous to think they'd "just leave their drugs laying around". Especially somewhere public like the White House

I have no knowledge of drug use, I defer to others on that score. But whether it was drugs found, a gun, a pen or even a hankie, the White House security will know who and when. If they don’t then they are incompetent…and I don’t believe that…….

He‘s a real charmer isn’t he.
www.vox.com

Alan Dershowitz helped Jeffrey Epstein get a plea deal. Now he’s tweeting about age of consent laws.

"I’m going to continue to speak out until the day I die," the Harvard Law professor told Vox.
www.vox.com www.vox.com
In 1997, Dershowitz argued against statutory rape laws, saying the age of consent should be 15, Bruck reports. “There must be criminal sanctions against sex with very young children, but it is doubtful whether such sanctions should apply to teenagers above the age of puberty, since voluntary sex is so common in their age group,” he wrote in a Los Angeles Times op-ed.

Dershowitz stands by his argument today, tweeting earlier this week that “if a 16 year old has the constitutional right to have an abortion without state or parental interference, how could she not have the constitutional right to engage in consensual sex?”

Dershowitz has no regrets over role in Jeffrey Epstein’s 2008 plea deal

But Dershowitz said he would do it all over again. In fact, he told JTA he would try to get Epstein even less prison time if he had the chance.

“I have no misgivings and I will continue to represent controversial people,” the Harvard Law School emeritus professor said.

Was the settlement fair to Epstein’s victims? Dershowitz says that’s not his responsibility. “That’s the job of prosecutors and ... the judge,” he said. “My job is to get the best possible result for my client.”

Dershowitz was happy to point out that he has represented a range of unseemly clients: far-right Jewish Defense League activists, O.J. Simpson, Claus von Bulow and, most recently, Harvey Weinstein.

Wait, so is this an unknown person accused of consuming cocaine in the WH or a known person? I can get behind the idea that Hunter Biden is allowed to come in and out more frequently than your typical WH visitor, and maybe even subject to less scrutiny, but is the accusation that's he's breaking and entering or that's he's using cocaine on the premises?
