Seth--+ there is proof that Ali Alexander was apart of the Dec 21st meeting via phone. It's a screenshot of a phone number he called that he posted on Twitter that night for a call that lasted over an hour, about 9 or 10pm DC time.The number is a Live Dept of Homeland security phone number- I know, I called it to see if I could figure out who he was bragging about calling. I will try to send via your website contact form
I hope you don't mind me sending it as well as a few other images and pieces of info that I may have which could fill in a couple of blanks w/ Ali and how he is connected with a few of the other seemingly random players like Daniel Back. (I tracked his online movements as a Biden campaign research volunteer for months before the election)

Not at all! Sounds good.

Matt "turd in the Beltway punchbowl" Gaetz 😒
Why would anyone seek a pardon for Snowden, or want to give him one?
These people are certifiably nuts!
Thank you! Brilliant and persuasive analysis.
