working hand in hand, we had it from the old, the all the google archipelago, the digital gay lot, michael rex, involved. and he said the democrats to do, we definitely think they time to cover up the modeling. i mean, what they're doing is they're trying to preamp to the possible criticisms of the election malfeasance that has gone on here and probably is going on right now by off loading all the blame on to russia. when in fact, they know that their own deep state operatives are involved in ledger domain and should carry with reference to the election and so rush, it becomes a handy scape code uh for the kinds of activities they are themselves undertaking. whether these videos in question are real or fake is not really the issue. they might even have floated them themselves in order to prepare the public for any kinds of claims that there is fraud or other malfeasance going on with inside these election booths. and in the election itself, so once again, this is just a fall guy rushes, the fall guy. they know that there is a lot of fraud underway and they're trying to use russia as an alibi.

we've been talking to michael rex, involved with the google archipelago and labor and human rights lawyer down that come by like, have a great day. bye. see you. thank you. thank you. thanks nicki us embassies across here. it will not be holding that traditional election, not watch policies this year. washington's appointees apparently fear that donald trump might win again and spoil the mood as he did in 2016 to contribute to rachel mazda, and brings us more on the reports. and so waiting for the us presidential election results to roll in washington's viceroy, as you could say in europe, in basset are stationed everywhere from london in paris to brussels in berlin. are apparently opting for a quiet evening of stress eating pockets of panagerie's ice cream alone on the coach, or maybe even the shares don't go in the embassy instead of uh, running the risk of hosting or soiree and shopping on the caviar is trump ends up winning now that's according to the western press, citing one senior american diplomats who said the quote, i don't think there was appetite to watch another trump victory

this is tense presidential race with michael rex, involved or of the google archipelago and laborer and human rights lawyer done. provided i think a lot will come down to not who wins, but whether whoever wins wins big enough to, you know, get rid of any doubt about who really want, you know, we know to night. and so 11300 electoral votes. well, i think those who lost will accept that, but if it's very close, it takes days to count. there's a lot of the regularities. yeah, there could be violence. there are grave concerns, especially on the republican side. and then you have on the democratic side there's, there's the senator raskin saying they will not certify trump whether he wins or not. whether you, if he wins, they will not certified as election. so if that should happen, i think you will see some mass movement toward civil unrest. you know, we've already got these far and meddling claims coming out georgia state will start phase of accused russia of lucas bracing effect phones thread for some threats that were on the russian origin. and so i don't know how to describe that. that's
