Journal smittyoneeach's Journal: Mike Lindell's Souix Falls Symposium 7
The dynamic is interesting. The mainstream conservative blogs didn't pick up or magnify much of the coverage. Dr. Douglas Frank apparently blew everyone's doors off with an explanation of what went down. Google nukes Dr. Frank from orbit, whereas DuckDuckGo only starts off with a derogatory link.
I took in about half of his talk. This is the sort of thing that should be put into a court of law and hashed out thoroughly, and I hope that the Dominion lawsuit against pretty much every right-wing detractor gets people and evidence under oath, in front of a jury, and follows the facts to conclusion.
I also heard from someone who might have some insight that at least one of the guests at the symposium is an alleged scam artist and that Lindell got (at least partially) played.
So make of all that what you will. Rep. Dan Crenshaw isn't buying into it at all, I guess.

Anyone who would buy any of this would be eager to buy swamp land in Florida.

Have you checked real estate prices in Florida lately?
(I actually have some land adjacent to a swamp in Florida, and it's not all that bad. Lots of wildlife, which I happen to enjoy. And the signs informing people that the swamp and lake are inhabited by alligators tend to ward off unwanted visitors.)
Back on topic: Lindell has a bunch of public voter records which he's displaying in hexadecimal to obtain the desired let's-wow-the-ignorant factor. IOW, a big nothingburger with a side order of smoke and mirro

My favorite quote from the symposium was, "You guys need to start reporting this stuff and stop fact-checking it!"

Indeed. The Donald couldn't have said it any better himself. :-)

Videos are terrible substitutes for written words.
They want to steal your time. And they really don't want any written record of this insanity to be used against them. A video is kinda like disappearing ink, not too many people keep archives for the obvious reasons of space and time.
Well, he finally listened to you in the subsequent journal (my frequent requests always went unheard). Let's go take a peek...
