Dominion went above and beyond to help Stark County in a difficult situation after their voting equipment was destroyed by a roof collapse. The BOE appreciated Dominion's willingness to help in a tight spot, even though they weren't the cheapest. says

Reddit-fueled trading frenzy driven partly by Fed, Kaplan says
“I still think we need to be doing what we are doing right now, in the teeth of the pandemic, but again, I think if we go beyond it, it will be healthier to start limiting this liquidity and normalizing policy down the road,” Kaplan said."

'He invited us': Accused Capitol rioters blame Trump in novel legal defense
Emanuel Jackson, 20. awaiting trial in federal court on assault charges, is now adopting a novel legal defense: seeking to pin the blame on Donald Trump, citing the former president’s remarks at a “Stop the Steal” rally shortly before the Capitol siege.
Trump told the crowd to “fight like hell,” said “we will not take it anymore” and repeated his false claims that the election was stolen from him through widespread voting fraud. Trump exhorted his followers to go to the Capitol. The ensuing rampage interrupted the congressional certification of President Joe Biden’s election victory, sent lawmakers into hiding and left five people dead including a police officer.

You might have some credibility if you didn’t say incredibly offensive and tone deaf things like “John Weaver did things that would make Bill Cosby blush”. Bill Cosby drugged and raped women for 50 years.

Hi Tom,
My reference to Cosby was in the number of young men he attempted to groom, which is now over 100.
As someone who broke a grooming scandal 3 weeks before the NY Times, I believe I have credibility. A lot more than an actor who made his name off his ex-wife's success.

RNC boss Ronna McDaniel says she regrets letting Trump’s legal team hold vote fraud press conference
The head of the Republican National Committee said in an interview Monday she now regrets not pushing back against former Trump campaign lawyers who spread theories of machine ballot fraud during the November election.
Ronna McDaniel told The New York Times that she was “concerned” about claims made by Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell, especially, during a press conference at RNC headquarters. Among those claims was that Dominion Voting System machines were programmed to change votes from then-President Donald Trump to then-Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.

GameStop shares sold off for a second day on Tuesday and a silver-buying spree led by small investors subsided as the Reddit-driven trading frenzy that has shocked global financial markets appeared to fizzle, at least for now.
Spot silver prices, an alternative focus in the battle between a pack of small traders and Wall Street hedge funds, fell more than 7% after hitting an eight-year high on Monday. The main silver ETF was down 7% in early trading.
(7%? Not suspcious at all…)
