Since 2016, at least 5 major defamation cases have been won against false election fraud claims, including Dominion v. Fox ($787M settlement), Freeman/Moss v. Giuliani ($148M judgment), and Newsmax's $67M settlement today, totaling over $1B. No cases in that period successfully proved significant election fraud occurred. Individual voter fraud convictions exist but are rare and did not impact outcomes.

I don’t remember these clowns getting manhandled by secret service for interrupting and heckling Joe Biden at the State of the Union. GOP Reps. Greene, Boebert heckle Biden throughout SOTU address nbcnews.com/politics/joe-bid…

Friendly reminder that every operational AI weather forecasting tool that exists today relies on processed data products distributed by @NOAA. This includes fancy MLWP models - can't run them if you don't have the outputs of the ECMWF or NOAA assimilation suites.

Florida is able to count all its votes by Election Night because state law allows it to count mail-in votes as they arrive. Because of Republicans, state law in PA, Michigan, and Wisconsin prohibits mail-in ballots from being counted before Election Day.

The following day, I went to Antonito, Colorado, population 674. Did you know that this is the location of the oldest Latino civil rights group in the country? Of course you didn't. Behold La Mutua and their recently refurbished headquarters latimes.com/california/story…

NEW: Two former Trump White House officials told me they had to show voter data to Trump to get him to release disaster funding to CA wildfire victims. He released it after learning that he had as many GOP supporters in Orange Co. as he did in Iowa. eenews.net/articles/helene-i…

A reminder that the Mayor of the District of Columbia has *no* authority over the D.C. National Guard (nor does the Speaker of the House). By law, the D.C. National Guard is (alone among National Guard units) under the direct legal control of the President of the United States.

The full quote applies to literally what Elon is doing right here: “I think we need to push back on this. There’s no guarantee to free speech on misinformation or hate speech and especially around our democracy…”

Here's a snippet of the river of bats pouring out of the Orient Mine in the San Luis Valley on a summer night in 2018. This occurs each evening until mid-August or so until the bats migrate on.

Smoke from wildfires across the western US and Canada has arrived in Colorado. This has created poor air quality and hazy skies. The smoke is expected to last most of the week. #COwx
