A postal worker whose allegation of ballot-tampering was at the center of Republican efforts to challenge the outcome of the presidential election has admitted to investigators that Project Veritas actually penned the affidavit laying out his claims. A two-hour audio recording released by Project Veritas on Wednesday shows Richard Hopkins being interviewed by federal investigators over his claim, first publicized by Project Veritas, that he had overheard a postmaster instructing workers in Erie, Pennsylvania, to backdate mail-in votes to meet the Election Day deadline. The audio had been touted by the conservative group as proof that Hopkins was manipulated by investigators but still stood by his allegations, despite House Democrats saying earlier this week that the U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General told them Hopkins admitted to fabricating the claims.
But instead, it captured him doing the very opposite, according to The Washington Post. When he was asked if he wanted to stick with his claim about ballot-tampering, Hopkins said, “At this point? No.” He said his allegation had stemmed from “assumptions” he made after overhearing tidbits of staffers’ conversations in the mail facility. Hopkins told investigators not only that his affidavit was written by Project Veritas but that he wasn’t even entirely sure of what the group had included in it because he was in “so much shock I wasn’t paying that much attention to what they were telling me.” A spokesman for Project Veritas acknowledged having a hand in the affidavit but insisted that the “affidavit was drafted with Mr. Hopkins’ input and requested revisions,” according to the Post.

Like Rudy, Project Veritas is that guy that has bullshitted so many times you can't trust them. Their mere presence should have raised suspicion for everyone.
The USPS guy operated a gofundme and the agents ask about that, trying to make sure that this guy set that up and he's not being a paid pawn to push a story and then get kickbacks or otherwise.
Project veritas uses this audio to demonize the agents (I get it, I've never heard a cop/agent interview that didn't sound like a jerk) but all I heard was agents telling a guy he better be sure his story is straight because there is national interest and him starting a gofundme has the potential to get him in trouble if the money is for anything other than him starting it and him receiving it. Indeed the guy himself does say project veritas instructed him to start and how to do it "they showed me how to push the buttons" and then he denies the money is for anything else.
If PV wrote the statement for him and then "showed him how" to make a gofundme, it could be on the up and up but also I think the agents questioning and focus is very valid.

Referencing some whacko Fox Business had on yesterday afternoon. Said she worked 24 straight hours where votes were being counted and 4 food trucks were allowed into the facility's garage but never sold any food.
How many ballots fit into 4 food trucks?
I couldn't hear her tin foil hat crumbling during the call, but I'm sure she was wearing one.
Sorry - Thought it was a thing. Haven't been paying too much attention to developments lately other than while I'm driving. Apparently it's another nothing burger.
Or is it?
Not even a nothing burger if there was nothing in the food truck.
I am sure you aren't in favor of the countermeasures they are already taking to prevent this. I think the problem is the other way around.

Only 2 ballots that arrived late and had Nov. 3 postmark came from Erie postal facility
Of the 129 late ballots with Nov. 3 postmarks, only two were processed at Erie postal facility.
amp.goerie.com
By the way from the accused mail facility there were only two ballots received that were postmarked for November 3rd
There were quite a few more than that postmark for November 4th.
So not only do his accusations raise suspicion the reality is that there was no significant number of votes going through that station and especially not for the criteria he raised about moving postmarks back a day. The fact that so many more showed up November 4th then November 3rd is exactly the opposite of what he's claiming as well.
The other funny thing is that sorting station actually wasn't processing almost any ballots because of the USPS funding cuts I referenced earlier. Ballots were largely being sent to different facilities.
No.
I'm not in favor of that.
A quick Google search shows 20 polling locations for Jefferson County (Louisville) on Election Day.
Also - On Nov 3, public transport was free via the Transit Authority of River City to anywhere in the county.
And - not really your point but - I don't think Booker would have done any better against Mitch than McGrath did.
I do love the DITCH MITCH signs around here. Some folks HATE that dude.

Nice try.
As EVERYONE should. He and Pelosi are shining examples of what's wrong with politics in America.
People talk shit about Obama not getting anything done and yet they cheer for Mitch proudly exclaiming that he was the grim reaper and stifled any activity.
Neither deserves to be in office.
That was all the myth they created around him when 9/11 pushed him on the national stage. In truth, he was always an opportunist. He leveraged his identity to go after the Italians portraying himself as some fearless prosecutor when most of what he did moved the goalposts of what you could use RICO for that still gets ham fistedly applied today. He was an awful mayor. He rode in on policing and social service reforms largely instituted under Dinkins and took credit for them, then he decimated programs for the poor, driving a lot of long time New Yorkers out of the city as he sold away neighborhoods to developers and used zoning laws to turn a lot of it into a strip mall, a process continued enthusiastically by Bloomberg. When 9/11 happened, he gave a few speeches for the 3 months he was mayor before Bloomberg took over, but he actually played little to no part in the city's recovery outside a few photo ops with first responders.
