HAPPENING NOW: 9th Circuit Oral Arguments on DOJ's lawsuit against California voters. DOJ is arguing that there is massive amounts of non-citizens voting, and the harm is irreparable because once the ballot is separated from its envelope, you can't trace it to the voter. 1/

What about the "Quiet Period?" or the "Purcell decision." Do these rules against making changes too soon before an election (not to mention during the election), do these provisions only apply when it benefits the GOP in elections? I want the DOJ to explain.

I don’t know Californian election law, but reading those posts, the DOJ is, to use a British expression, talking out of his arse. It’s the same crap they came up with in 2020. But, of course, the truth doesn’t matter to him and Trump. It might be time to start boarding up the Capitol building.

How is a California voter supposed to know if their name is on the list that they want separated out? The California voter register is the only thing I can check but the people that they are questioning are all from that list.

Judge Bennett (Trump appointee) asks DOJ about standing. The defendants push back against your argument that you didn't know that ballots were untraceable once removed from the envelope. You say you learned this from the defendants filing on 10/20. 2/

JB: but on 10/21, you still asked for relief by 11/3. So how do we have jurisdiction when the district court said they'd give you a ruling. I don't see how we have jurisdiction. 3/

Judge Sanchez (Biden Appointee) asks DOJ how they didn't know that California can process their ballots right away. "You know they're being sent out 29 days in advance of an election. So if you know both of those things, how are you claiming an emergency basis?" 4/

The ABA has nothing to do with disbarring or disciplining attorneys. State boards and state bar associations have that authority. Generally, they can respond to complaints or act on their own, but it’s not instantaneous in either case.

Do they (TFG and DOJ) really think 20k ballots are going to affect any races for a state position or the outcome of any proposition? What a waste of time and taxpayers' dollars.

The point is to be able to invalidate the entire state’s votes by claiming the whole process is corrupt. I know. The corrupt claiming to call out corruption 🙄

I really believed that this fiasco (and the pillow guy’s shit show) would be the end of this insanity. Yet, here we are. SN: AZ Republicans reported Cyber Ninja audit showed Biden actually won 360 more votes than the official count.

theguardian.comInvestigation debunks bogus ‘audit’ claiming 300 dead people voted in Arizona in 2020New findings disprove audit by Cyber Ninjas, investigating all ‘dead’ individuals: ‘Many were very surprised to learn they were allegedly deceased’

Is the DOJ saying it can’t tell if it’s an illegal ballot until they see who the voter voted for? That sounds a bit convenient in determining which ballots shouldn’t be counted.

How about “put your money where your mouth is and personally pay $100 for each person on the 20,000 list that IS a citizen (plus costs of checking)”. See Nevada where they claimed 189k and turned to zero

Doj's entire case rests on the presumption of regular order: that 2 DHS employees attest the list is accurate. I hope the mountain of lies from DHS over in trump 2.0 weigh heavily that this DHS and doj are not to be trusted without verifiable facts. Regular order should be dead.

Don’t forget that one Nevada loser who spent two weeks on Fox complaining that someone had voted with his dead wife’s ballot, only for everyone to discover the perpetrator was him.

I think of that asshole all the time! If anyone actually looked at people who committed voter fraud, I bet it’s more Republicans than Democrats. Remember when VA Governor Youngkin’s son tried to vote more than once?

The government's own data from prior investigations, has shown that voter fraud like suggested in this case, is a negligible factor that has never affected the result of any election! Yet they are trying to claim that there would be 'irredeemable harm' to not do as they request ... 1/3 10/26/2026

... even though they cannot attest to any degree of accuracy in the listing that they supplied to the state! The word 'may' in their list description is the telling factor! They have no idea of whether any of the people listed are, have, or even intend to, vote in this election! 2/3

Purely a fishing expedition! They are trying to delay the vote counting so they can complain that the vote counting takes too long and should be cancelled before it is finished! trump's cronies are the ones causing all the problems that they complain about and offer 'unworkable cures' for! 3/3

They are talking about the number of ballots that are being processed before Election Day, not the number of potential non-citizens voting.

Uhhhhhh… sorry Todd, you count the affidavits (signed envelopes.) then you count the ballots from them. They match, no problem. Really Todd it isn’t that hard. Besides, you have no say here. Go to court if you want to challenge something. Rudi lost all of his, you will do the same. Fat fuck.

Election Day and when results are CERTIFIED are not the same day. Certification has a 30 day window to verify if a vote is suspect, or to cure any abnormalities. Trump will LIE. Trump is a LIAR. Vote the turd out.

Its so bad there isn't a word or phrase to do the situation justice. Keeping that in mind. This situation is fucked up. 47 ain't shit. Democracy is being assaulted.
