I have been only vaguely paying attention to Rudy's crusade... did they really set up a fake hearing? Like, it's designed to look like a Congressional process but isn't before any body with any authority or standing? In other words, just a TV show?

Considering they raised $150 million last month I'm very curious just how far they'll go to keep the grift going. Could produce some great entertainment.

I'm just waiting for it to devolve into a Jerry Springer show. They should get some chairs thrown around, and the audience chanting "Rudy! Rudy!".
What am I missing about Trump’s section 230 crusade? He doesn’t like being censored on Twitter so he wants social media to be liable for content - I.e will censor to a much greater extent. Is he just trying to kill social media?
In seeking to explain why Biden racked up a gaudy electoral-vote total but Democrats performed poorly in the Senate and House, there have been all sorts of theories — one common one being that voters, anticipating a Biden win, preemptively voted Republican for Congress to give Biden some checks and balances. But as we have seen, there just isn’t much evidence for that. The vast majority of voters voted the same way for president and Congress, and while there were undoubtedly some people who split their tickets between Biden and congressional Republicans, there were also some who split their tickets between Trump and congressional Democrats.
A better take is that Democrats “performed poorly” in the Senate and House simply compared with pre-election expectations. But they still won more House seats than Republicans did, and arguably, the main reason they didn’t do better in the Senate is because of the chamber’s Republican bias. In reality, Democrats performed about the same in all three races, but the structures through which those results were filtered — the Electoral College, the Senate seats that happened to be up and a House map biased toward Republicans — produced different results.

where do they keep finding those people? Just blows my mind.
and even more incredible: those are the people they actually choose to use. How crazy must the people be that they don't?
It is 100% a delay tactic. Trumpy is simply using the time to get more donors, he will need the money to fight all of the lawsuits he has coming in NYC.

Probably just wants to sue them for "defaming" him without any rational thought as to the consequences.
