TWEETS OF NOTE

• (@ElectionWiz) TRUMP LAWYER LAURO: Trump will subpoena everyone to prove his innocence. This includes subpoenaing Mark Zuckerberg who provided the “Zuck Bucks” and the 51 former intelligence officers who claimed the Laptop from Hell was Russian disinformation. No stone will be left unturned. Tweet.
• (@DineshDSouza) I sat next to #Trump at the premiere of “2000 Mules,” and can confirm from observation he was 100% convinced the 2020 election was rigged and stolen. He believed it from the start, and he believes it still. For Jack Smith to insist Trump knew the election wasn’t stolen is absurd! Tweet.
