When the SOS in GA tells you they debunked reports of illegal ballot counting soon after the election was done -- weeks before the video was released this week -- either they sat on the video after seeing it and created a story to match the images, or they never saw the video and are now doubling down on the story that is obviously false based on the video AND sworn testimony taken together.
They can say "not suitcases" if they want -- semantics ... quibbling ... irrelevant.
They can say, "Nobody told them to leave," if they want -- what was said exactly is irrelevant. They were told the COUNTING HAD STOPPED. Implication: "Go home. No need to stay."
When the facts are obvious, they will argue details. Just like any lawyer: When the facts are not on your side, argue the law. When the law is not on your side, argue the facts.
The counting was illegally performed. Period. End of story.
Why were the ballot cases under the table at all? Plenty of room on top of that table. Nobody was using it for anything else based on the video. The table was not set up before that day, so there's really no logical reason for it being there to start with, much less to obscure cases of ballots until after the press and observers had left the building.
Looks like a duck to me.
