This Pennsylvania "hearing" is nuts.
There& #39;s a witness who is complaining because envelopes (with addresses and signatures) are separated from ballots (which show how people voted).
That& #39;s the point of a secret ballot.

GOP witness: "I am an expert in fraud."
Rudy and his crackpot witness are marveling that there can be more "absentee" ballots than were mailed out.
Pennsylvania had numerous sites (e.g. election board offices) where one could go in person to request an absentee ballot, fill it out, and submit it.

Rudy appears to have gotten this next witness from a misleading Twitter video
It appears that this next witness is an attorney licensed in Florida and Illinois who is representing Judicial Watch in a lawsuit against Illinois, which, as everyone knows*, makes him an expert on Pennsylvania election law.

"you heard about global huge global issues but it goes down to the petty as well." —Florida/Illinois lawyer.
FACT CHECK: This is certainly petty.

Meanwhile on Newsmax...
Florida/Illinois man: "We really had no concept of what was going on."
Accurate.
Accurate.
This man& #39;s grievance seems to be that the amount of time it took to open and prepare mailed ballots was "absurd and obscene."
The Pennsylvania legislature specifically rejected an attempt to make it easier to open/count ballots faster.

Florida/Illinois man is mad because Republicans weren& #39;t allowed to challenge absentee ballots during counting, AFTER the period in which challenges are permitted.
"one thing one of the guarantees in the United States Constitution is that in fact every state shall have a republican form of government." —Florida/Illinois man, who doesn& #39;t seem to understand that "republican" isn& #39;t supposed to have a capital R there.
Next witness is an elderly woman who apparently mistakenly voted for the wrong candidate.
"I actually thought it was easier to vote in & #39;92 on the world war two surplus voting machines with the curtain." —another "witness"
World War II surplus voting machines?

Jenna Ellis is trying to bring @realDonaldTrump into the hearing via her mobile phone. He wants to keep listening to the "witnesses"
Another witness thinks it& #39;s suspicious that people who didn& #39;t vote in 2012 or 2016 decided to vote this year.
. @realDonaldTrump says he& #39;s been watching the "hearing" on OAN "and a few other great networks."
(only OAN is broadcasting it).
He says he "won by a lot," which is delusional.

"this election has to be turned around because we won Pennsylvania by a lot and we won all of these swing states by a lot," @realDonaldTrump says.
(he did not win them by a lot because he lost them)

"If you were a Republican poll watcher you were treated like a dog," says @realDonaldTrump, who still does not seem to understand that people *love* dogs.
"we have to turn the election over, because there& #39;s no doubt we have all the evidence we have all the affidavits, we have everything. All we need is to have some judge listen to it properly without having a political opinion or having another kind of a problem..." --Trump
Trump on @RudyGiuliani: "What you& #39;re doing now is far more important than being a great Mayor of the City of New York and being its greatest mayor, by far, by the way, by far, this is going to be your crowning achievement, because you& #39;re saving our country."
. @RudyGiuliani: "And then you have this gap that I don& #39;t understand, between the mail in ballots you sent out 1.8 million, and the number you counted 2.5 million. That& #39;s totally impossible to explain..."
(It& #39;s not impossible to explain. People voted absentee at election offices)

"I would definitely appoint a special prosecutor to prosecute the people who conducted this election." -- @RudyGiuliani
