AZ County Twitter Account Heckles ‘Audit’ Press Conference In Real Time | Talking Points Memo

More or less. It’s kind of like being given a document in multiple parts, and then misplacing parts 3 through 7. So you blame the person who sent you all the parts.

“This is a whole breaking ground,” she said at the end of the hearing.

This is also a whole incoherence.

Or maybe a hole in the ground. It’s hard to tell. Hand me that shovel, will ya?

Hmmmmm…Bobby Jindal. I’d forgotten all about him. Interesting that he hasn’t weighed in on anything for a while.

Perhaps he’s ashamed of being aligned with stupid?? :thinking:

Do the Cyber Ninjas have swords?

You tell me. This is from their web-site:

Among them: They had not properly reconstructed the RAID storage array used by the county when creating copies of the hard drives, which left them unable to access files that otherwise would have been readily accessible

So the tech wizards of Cyber Ninja were defeated by a RAID array?

Also, claiming that data not accessible in a RAID array is “deleted” is like saying your fridge is empty because you can’t open the door. And given that this door was not locked, its basically a lie to claim the county did not provide the requested data.

I’ve seen a lot of stupid stuff in my time but this “audit” is well beyond anything I have seen yet.
btw: I have a copy of the Maricopa County Supervisors response to Sen. Fann. It’s truly an amazing document.

I’m in daily awe that the Republican Party has chosen Donald Trump as their savior.

It is simultaneously hilarious, and deeply troubling.

Per cnn.com
Ol donnie is demanding that any formation of a January 6th Commission be stopped.

IMMEDIATELY

If not sooner.

McConnell hasn’t yet come up with any clear reasons why he opposes such a commission other than vague suggestions about its work interfering with the DOJ’s probes. The main concern is that the commission might subpoena members or “alienate members of the GOP base, as well as former President Trump.”

Anyone still under the impression that Mitch wants DT gone, I hope this settles that notion.

(Edited in an attempt to make myself sound like less of a jerk. “Attempt” obviously doing some heavy lifting here).

It’s time to send the Federal Marshalls in to seize the ballots, return them to the County and be done with this nonsense.

Then have the Feds tell the judge he has a Federal case on his hands and he has the DOJ to deal with going forward.

If you want to send a message to the Arizona R’s and other states, now is the time to do it. Fuck with the election system and this DOJ will be crawling up your skinny white ass.

Just waiting for Cyber Nincompoops to announce they found drops of soy sauce or sriracha on Biden ballots…

Sushi is very popular at “audits”. Especially when handling ballots.

Kids playing dress-up.

They weren’t looking in the wrong place.

Their competence is not even at the high school computer kid level. They remounted the mulitiple disk images (they were using a RAID for redundancy) in the wrong configuration, and as a result it appeared like there was massive directory and file corruption.

My 12 yr old grandson coulda figured all of this out in a nanosecond. His grandpa? not so much.
Until you posted RAID I thought that was an insecticide. Remember that I was quoting other folks from the article. Note the line with

That is meant as a break. What’s below those dots I wrote. What’s above is a quotation from the article.
Again I am not a computer wizard. I am a resident of Arizona however. And I am deeply insulted by this “audit” bullshit. The AZ senate has shown themselves to be complete idiots by not shutting this crap down well before now. Ballots have been damaged, votes ruined, and this crap was conducted by amateurs who had no business doing any of it. There was the original election night tally, and two subsequent hand counts by qualified nonpartisan people. Biden won all of them. It’s long past time for the AZ legislature to either pull their big boy pants on and grow up or… resign (which would be my choice since they allowed this charade)

The work done by Cyber Ninjas will need to be formally reviewed so that their errors (intentional or unintentional) can be exposed. That won’t help with true believers, but some folks are persuadable.

Without court involvement, Senator Fann will just pull a “Bill Barr” – sending out a summary of how corrupt the election was and hiding the actual details from the public.

Have the Maricopa County Supervisors (or the Democrats) said anything about how they intend to force such a review?

“Do the cyber ninjas have swords?”

Well, I remember from Crusaders of the Dark Savant that when you had a ninja player-character you had things like katanas to get for them. But if they don’t have swords, maybe they had shuriken. It’s been a while though and they might need to be equipped with a cyber by now. Keep up with the cool kids, etc.

What’s with this sojourn to Montana I cannot figure, but there must be a particularly available disused barn or something, or a colony of the sasquatch who are unwilling to bring their forensic skills to Arizona.

Whatever this “audit” determines, it seems to me that a band of sasquatch may now have the funds to pay to have their pickup trucks jacked up and maybe given a more millennarian gearing system & suspension. On top of it all there may also be a mystic portal to Offshore Banking and Under the Table Pickup Truck Mechanics. Some of them may know how to install the cyber, too.
