Copy of the Executive Order Sidney Powell and Giuliani almost got Trump to sign...

[Tommy Carcetti]

...authorizing the Department of Defense to seize voting machines prior to the January 6th certification.

Reportedly the only reason the Former Office Occupant didn't sign was because there was a threat of mass resignation if he did. You know he had to have really wanted to, though.

1. Seems illegit.

[gratuitous]

2. Why did the former guy fight so hard to keep these documents out of the public eye?

I mean, he wasn't doing anything wrong or illegal, right? He was just making perfect phone calls and totally following all applicable laws.

3. TFG never understood the basis for and legitimacy of political power

He didn't know what would fly. He just issued orders to suit his short-term whims, and had underlings carry out his orders.

4. It keeps referring to probable cause

Not only was there no probable cause, that is not standard to support such an executive order. It was written by an attorney who has no understanding regarding what is probable cause or the supportable bases of executive orders.

5. So it was written by Sidney Powell and Rudy Giuliani then.
