Anons did you ever hear of this, of course it's not correct,but I wonder if that "binder" and documents the FBI was so intent on getting, when they raided MAL, was really the laps or documents from it?

Was Trump at Cheyenne Mountain Military Base Looking at 'Evidence' From Pelosi's Stolen Laptop?

About this rating

In early January 2021, Snopes readers asked about social media posts falsely claiming that U.S. President Donald Trump had a stolen laptop belonging to U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and that he was at the Cheyenne Mountain military base in Colorado Springs, Colorado, viewing "evidence" on the laptop.

Although the claim spread on various platforms, it appears to have originated on Parler, the site favored by far-right extremists, until Amazon pulled Parler's web hosting on Jan. 11, 2021, due to violent threats posted on it:

If the text in the above meme is difficult to read, it states, in sum, that because of "evidence" on Pelosi's laptop viewed by Trump, Pelosi had headed to the "border" (unclear which one) but was stopped just before midnight, and was being held at an undisclosed location "pending tribunals and trials." Because Parler is down, we don't know the exact date of the above post, but we know that it was posted shortly after the Jan. 6, 2021, pro-Trump Capitol riot, during which a laptop really was stolen from Pelosi's office.

The Parler post above appears to have been written by Ron Watkins, the administrator of the message board that hosts Q, the fictional prophetic figure in the Qanon conspiracy theory. The story spread on various other social platforms. But, it's not true.

We'll first debunk the laptop conspiracy theory. Then the claim about Powell, Wood, and indictments.

One of the most widely seen images from the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot shows a rioter sitting in Pelosi's office with his feet up on her desk in a violent day that left five people dead. Congress was meeting that day to certify Electoral College votes for President-Elect Joe Biden.

Contrary to the idea that the stolen laptop was full of incriminating evidence, Pelosi's Deputy Chief of Staff Drew Hammill tweeted that it was "only used for presentations." And Pelosi had never headed to a border, only to be detained at an undisclosed location. She was instead at the Capitol and in the House Chamber the night of Jan. 6 to finish certifying Electoral College votes. On Jan. 13, 2021, she was again in the chamber, where she voted to impeach Trump for the second time for inciting an insurrection.

Per Trump's public schedule, he hasn't left Washington, D.C., since the Capitol riot, save for one trip to Alamo, Texas, on Jan. 12 to visit the U.S.-Mexico border wall. There is no indication he visited the military base at Cheyenne Mountain.

James Carville: Biden Won’t Win. Democrats Need a Plan. Here’s One.

July 8, 2024 By James Carville

(Extreme PANICand a really stupid idea, they didn’t listen to him before and won’t listen to him again)1/2

Mark my words: Joe Biden is going to be out of the 2024 presidential race. Whether he is ready to admit it or not. His pleas on Monday to congressional Democrats for support will not unite the party behind him. Mr. Biden says he’s staying in the race, but it’s only a matter of time before Democratic pressure and public and private polling lead him to exit the race.The jig is up, and the sooner Mr. Biden and Democratic leaders accept this, the better. We need to move forward.

But it can’t be by anointing Vice President Kamala Harris or anyone else as the presumptive Democratic nominee. We’ve got to do it out in the open — the exact opposite of what Donald Trump wants us to do.

For the first time in his life, Mr. Trump is praying. To win the White House and increase his chances of avoiding an orange jumpsuit, he needs Democrats to make the wrong moves in the coming days — namely, to appear to rig the nomination for a fading president or the sitting vice president or some other heir apparent. He needs to be able to type ALL CAPS posts about power brokers and big donors putting the fix in. He needs, in other words, for Democrats to blow it.

• We’re not going to do that.

• We’re going to nominate a new ticket in a highly democratic and novel way, not in the backrooms of Washington, D.C., or Chicago.

• We’re at the stage where we need constructive ideas for how to move forward. Representative Jim Clyburn and the Times Opinion columnist Ezra Klein have spoken about a Democratic mini-primary, and I want to build on that.

I want to see theDemocratic Party hold four historic town halls between now and the Democratic National Convention in August — one each in the South, the Northeast, the Midwest and the West. We can recruit the two most obvious andqualified people in the world to facilitate substantive discussions: Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. They may not represent every faction under our party’s big tent. But they care as much about our democracy as our nation’s first president, they understand what it takes to be president, and they know how to win.

Town halls — high-stakes job interviews for the toughest job in the world — would surely attract television and cable partners and generate record numbers of viewers. Think the Super Bowl with Taylor Swift in the stands. The young, the old and everyone in between will tune in to see history being made in real time.

How will potential nominees be chosen to participate in the town halls? There is no answer here that will satisfy everyone, but hard choices must be made, given the tight timetable, and I think leaning on the input of former presidents makes good sense.So I would advise Presidents 42 and 44 to select eight leading contenders out of the pool of those who choose to run, with Ms. Harris most definitely getting a well-earned invite.

I believe the vice president would be a formidable opponent for Mr. Trump. (KEK) She has spent the past four years crisscrossing the country and the globe, serving the American people. She has a hell of a story — one that more people should know.

She stood up for ordinary Americans against big banks. She locked up sexual predators. You want the prosecutor, or you want the criminal? Not the worst question to put to the American public this November. (She locked up mostly black Americans, she is deeply hated by black and Hispanic)

2/2

Maybe Presidents 42 and 44 can make the candidate selection even more democratic by consulting the nation’s 23 Democratic governors in the town hall selection process. Governors deal in the practical, not the theoretical. But I’m not a details guy. I say we leave it up to 42 and 44.

To be clear, we have a lot more than eight Democrats who could beat the pants off Mr. Trump. But if we don’t limit the town halls to a manageable number of people, we’ll get sound bites, not substance. Town halls will give Americans a fresh look at Ms. Harris and introduce them to our deep bench of smart, dynamic, tested leaders. In addition, Democratic delegates will get to further grill and stress-test these leaders in public and private meetings before a formal vote of all the delegates at the Democratic convention.

A word about those delegates: I trust them to reach a majority decision at the convention after a public and substantive process like this one, and you should, too. Sure, we’ve got some folks on the fringes, God love ’em. But an overwhelming majority of Democratic delegates are pragmatic patriots. They work hard and care deeply about their communities and our country. They come from small towns and big cities and everywhere in between.

• I’m not worried about our delegates. They’re in it to win it.

• I’m not worried about our talent.We have a staggeringly talented new generation of leaders.(Delusional and Panicked)

• I’m not worried about the money. Americans will be fired up by this open process, and many are already fired up to beat Mr. Trump.

• I’m not worried about time. We have excitement and momentum on our side.

And our opponent? The one born with a platinum spoon but no moral compass? The pathological liar? The felon? The predator found liable for sexual abuse? (Oh you mean like President Clinton did?) The wannabe dictator? The Putin lickspittle? I’m not worried about him, either.

It’s been an agonizing time for those of us who think President Biden more than earned a second term but isn’t going to win one. But now we’ve got to move on.

Although my friend Rahm Emanuel usually gets credit, I’ve heard more often that it’s Winston Churchill who is said to have advised, “Never let a good crisis go to waste.” A superdemocratic process — the opposite of what Mr. Trump and his MAGA minions would do — is how we’re going to honor that wisdom in our own “Will democracy prevail?” moment.

(Bottom line they have got to cheat again, they are planning that.)
