Context —

e's stuff to talk about. So if you lower your expectations and say to yourself, you know what, there's not much else on TV or on social media, so we're just going to be hanging out and I'll chatter about a few things that I find interesting that are in the news. Where is that cursor? There it is. So I saw in the Mario Nawfal post that Tesla is estimating that full self-driving mode on their cars…

account has been hammering for like four years. So four or five years they've been posting on the same topic. And here's the topic. Allegedly, and there's a part that's not alleged, but the part we know is that there was a locked warehouse in Fulton, Georgia in which allegedly there were a bunch of ballots that got counted that are sketchy. Now, I don't remember why they were sketchy. They were either all the same or I don't know. There was something about them that was presumed to be sketchy, but nobody could check it out because the room was locked and a judge had been asked to force them to release it and unlock it, but the judge had not acted.

So years went by when Rasmussen would report, it seemed like once a week, well, that room is still locked. Now, you might say to yourself, well, over all that time, if that room had anything in it that was controversial, there would have been enough time to change them out or steal them. Sort of like Fort Knox.

So apparently the judge, Robert McBurney, who is being accused of being corrupt, but I don't know about that, he finally approved access. So some cynics are saying that he waited long enough that the statute of limitations might be running out for whoever did the alleged crimes. That would be a crime of election tampering allegedly. But I asked Grok about that. That's weird. Somebody outside my house. Must be a package delivery.

Anyway, I asked Grok about the statute of limitations. It says mostly for election felonies it would be seven years but because everything takes years there might be a way for the bad guys, again this is just speculation, hypothesis, allegations, the bad guys could somehow find another way to stall for another two years and nobody would go to jail. Now I don't know if they can but in theory.

The reason that the government, some element of the government of Georgia was blocking the release is because they estimated it would cost $400,000 to unlock the door. Now, what does that mean? I have no idea. Why would it cost the government $400,000 to unlock a door? Presumably the unlocking of the door was linked with some kind of audit that I guess the government would be involved in. I don't really understand.

But given that the Republicans would pay anything to prove that the election w

as rigged, especially Trump, I don't think it would be hard for them to raise $400,000. So it seems to me a fake reason that it would be too expensive. That must be just the excuse they're using. So there is a nonzero chance, and I wouldn't know how to put an estimate on this, but there's a nonzero chance that everything you suspected about the election will be revealed really soon. I'm not sure…
