WHAT’S HAPPENING
If you read “Day Drinking” you’ll recall Michigan attorney Matthew Deperno found 66,194 unregistered ballots in nine Michigan counties. He recently also found 1,061 “phantom votes” in Antrim County, Mich., the county that was first reportedly won by Biden but later analysis showed was won by Trump. Phantom votes? A December recount in Antrim County found 15,962 ballots but only 14,901 votes, which Deperno believes gives him standing for an audit of Antrim County’s election results. Trump even mentioned it via his Telegram account:

An ongoing lawsuit over a ballot proposal challenges the integrity of the county s election.
Antrim County s results were fully audited and hand-recounted in December, affirming Trump s win.
More than six months after the 2020 presidential election, former President Donald Trump is hyping a lawsuit in a small Michigan county that he already won.
In a Monday statement posted on his website, Trump touted the baseless contents of a bombshell pleading in a major Michigan Election Fraud case that he said will show that votes were intentionally switched to harm him, a claim for which there is no evidence.

ADDISON, Texas - Key elements of the baseless assertion that the 2020 election was stolen from President Donald Trump took shape in an airplane hangar here two years earlier, promoted by a Republican businessman who has sold many things, from Tex-Mex food in London to a wellness technology that beams light into the human bloodstream.
