Joe Oltmann: The Porta-Potty Rebellion Begins

  • 17 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols

UPDATE: Were they not so undeserving of pity, we’d almost have some:

Go about your business, folks. The revolution will not begin today.

—–

The word went out before the Thanksgiving holiday that Black Friday 2022 would be the day (you’ve heard this before but for real this time) that the election stealers across this great country finally get some ‘countability. Although Colorado’s Heidi Ganahl lost her race by numbers that not even the most devoted election conspiracy theorist could dispute–and she did consult with them–Colorado’s leading conspiracy theorist podcaster who wants to hang a whole slew of people including Gov. Jared Polis, Joe Oltmann, called for patriots to converge on the Arizona State Capitol in Phoenix this morning to demand a new election for defeated GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake:

We don’t know how long these patriots intend to “Occupy” the Arizona Capitol grounds, but the weather in Phoenix is pretty nice this year so there are no worries about them freezing to death in their little encampment. Also, sources on the ground are reporting that patriot potty breaks will not be a problem:

Because while Oltmann can’t seem to draw a crowd, there appear to be a plethora of Porta-Potties.

At this point we think it’s best to let them get it out of their system, with relief that it wasn’t much worse. Kari Lake won’t get a do-over of the election she lost, and the general shrug her allegations of fraud are receiving is a welcome sign that Donald Trump’s election denialism might end with Trump. A whimper of a protest to cap off Kari Lake’s Trump-like strategy of election pre-denial could be interpreted as a sign of American politics working back to the status quo ante.

  1. Would there be interest in a Get More Smarter spin off pod perhaps a Get More Crazier? Something that focuses on the opposition, the conspiracy theorist, conservative thinkers, and their politics of self destruction.

    Deep dive on furries; where it was invented, and the organization behind pushing it and conservative school board campaigns.

    How gun nuts and gun groups have taken over conservative politics in Colorado from KBB to PPK. 

    Perhaps something Ian can sit out while Jason minds the store at home.

  2. At least a couple of suits have been filed — one by Keri Lake, one by Abe Hamadeh & RNC — claiming problems in Maricopa County.  2 counties of the state apparently are holding up certification, claiming they want to draw attention to the Maricopa County goofs. 

    According to Democracy Docket, Hamadeh's

    lawsuit begins by stating that the plaintiffs are not “alleging any fraud, manipulation or other intentional wrongdoing that would impugn the outcomes of the November 8, 2022 general election” but then proceeds to cast doubt upon the results of the Arizona midterm elections by citing “systematic” errors. …  [apparently, he wants ] an order declaring Hamadeh “elected to the office of Arizona Attorney General and to issue to Contestant a certificate of election.

    No word yet on a timetable for the court process.  One person thinks it is DOA.

    Tom Ryan, a Valley attorney and critic of Hamadeh’s, said the would-be attorney general’s lawsuit is likely dead on arrival because state law is specific about when legal challenges to election results can be filed. Hamadeh is making his case in court before all of the counties have canvassed their results and the state has certified the election, while Arizona statute says such lawsuits can only be filed after the results have been certified

    1. Instant nomination for best comment of the year 2022.  The snark and prescient clarity of thought is the kind of gem that most posters dream of delivering.

  3. The prize for cultural appropriation goes to Larry G, who is carrying a shofar, (ram’s horn- Jewish religious symbol), while  he speaks to the crowd about Christian domination of the country.

    1. So, the "Don't Tread on Me" snake has become an ouroboros.

      Has anyone explained to these morons that the Confederate-flag waving traitors are a major constituent group in the Party of Trump?
