The Arizona Republican party is about to do a hand recount of some of the results of last years Presidential election. Not the state, or an unbiased third party but the Republican party. They have hired a company whose owner is a frequent guest on Sean Hannity and other rightwing radio stations and he has said he intends to find fraud There are no controls in place and literally nothing to stop them from adding new ballots or not counting whatever they want.
It's unofficial. Nothing they find or create will change the outcome but expect a lot of noise about it.
The people doing the counting are employees of his company, have had no training by Arizona election people, and have not been asked to take the usual oaths associated with counting ballots.
It would be a sad joke except some people truly think this is the first step to bringing trump back to power.
Reporters will not be allowed to observe in the traditional sense but it is okay. The Republican lead Arizona Senate has appointed One America News, the small cable outfit that still refers to trump as the President to represent the media as the only official news outlet allowed to cover the event live.
The company, Cyber Ninjas, says part of the audit may include sending teams out to peoples address's to verify if voters actually live where they registered. The company's owner said that trump won by at least 200,000 votes and he promises to find them.

Rachel Maddox did a segment on this last night. He’s a Q follower and a Stop the Steal leader and a favorite of Sydney Powell. Totally nuts that they would turn over all this information to such a questionable company. As you said, it will change nothing, but will be food for the believers.

Today the Arizona GOP announced they wanted to send samples of ballots out to be tested for the presence of bamboo. Their latest theory is somehow some 40,000 Chinese ballots were smuggled into the system and since Chinese paper contains bamboo and American paper doesn't ..........
