story of the water leak that was fake that was just used as a cover to get the observers out.

Now I could go on and on and on, but how many of you are having the same experience that in your bubble you have massive, just massive stories about very credible stories that various parts of the election were rigged? That's your bubble too, right? But I bet almost nobody on the left is exposed to this stuff because it's not going to be in the news, right? CNN doesn't cover it. MSNBC. It's not in the New York Times. And whenever it is covered they might just hit it and then leave it. Whereas in my bubble it's repeated and repeated and stuff is added to it all the time.

So then in that context Scott Presler was reminding us on X that back in 2008, and I admit I was not paying attention to politics in 2008. So in 2008, how many of you knew this happened, that Al Franken was running for senator in Minnesota? And if he won he would become a critical majority vote, which he was, and it was a difference between Obamacare passing and not passing. So Al Franken had to win for them to get Obamacare over the line. And he did win by 312 votes.

Now my understanding is, again I wasn't paying attention back then, my understanding is that he did not win on the first vote and that they had to keep saying wait, we kept finding some more votes and that a critical turning point in his winning is that somebody who worked for the election people had found a bunch of ballots in the trunk of his own car. Is that true? Did he win because somebody claimed they found a bunch of ballots in the back of their car? And he only won by 312 votes after he had already lost. So it was actually after the election was already closed. Is that true?

And as Scott Presler also points out that Minnesota has one of these weird laws where one person can vouch for up to eight people living in their precinct that they're qualified to vote. In other words that they're citizens and they live there. What are you telling me? That one criminal can vouch for eight other criminals and that would be enough for the eight other criminals to be able to vote. What kind of law is that? That looks like a law that's only designed to promote fraud. And then we heard that over half a million voters were registered to vote on election day.

Now you might say to yourself, but Scott, lots of people tend to register on election day if they have that option because they just put it off and maybe the relatives talk them into it or something. But half a million? Do you think half a million decided that the day to register was election day? That doesn't sound real. So is it possible that in 2008 before we understood how corrupt the world really is that this was just pure corruption? If I told you it happened in Minnesota, back then I might have said, well Minnesota is kind of a state where there's not a lot of crime. So now we realize that Minnesota is the most corrupt state that isn't California. So how much of that is real? I don't want to put it in the form of an accusation, but it looks sketchy as hell. And if you drop that story into my bubble where I get this total flow of reports about election rigging, that sure looks like election rigging to me from my 2025-ish perspective.

Speaking of corruption, this one blows my mind. I cannot believe that Gavin Newsom has any chance to become president, but we live in a world where as lon
