I have to agree with one of the commenters on Brad Heath's twitter feed:

For some reason it didn't show me your most recent post before I posted.From a group of law professors who have filed an amicus (friend of the court) brief in the Pennsylvania case (sorry, no Monty Python)
Could it have something to do with this: Šajkača – the Serbian Folk CapRiver wrote:It's been days. I'm this close to joining Twitter just so I can message @popehat and ask why his handle is SerbianCommunistHat.
Most of the time, I know automatically what each of his new monikers refer to (which surely shows that I pay far too much attention to the news), but like you, I was stumped by that particular change. A new episode of the All the President's Lawyers podcast was released at about the same time, which I have yet to listen to, and maybe the answer was revealed there. I think I mentioned before that I did exchange emails with him a few months ago, when I let him know that there had been a ruling by the appeals court in Stormy Daniels's defamation lawsuit against Donald Trump (the ruling went in Trump's favor). He thanked me for pointing that out, saying that he hadn't noticed that, and the news did come up briefly in the next ATPL episode.River wrote:It's been days.

My guess would be no. The "hat" is always part of his name. It's the rest that changes, based on the news. So right now he's HatKnowsCrooksReallyWell, because earlier today, Rudy Giuliani said, "I know crooks really well".RoseMorninStar wrote:Could it have something to do with this: Šajkača – the Serbian Folk CapRiver wrote:It's been days.

Unlikely, for reasons NEB stated, but it would be amusing if that particular head gear was involved since I've never seen anyone wearing it for any purpose other than performing music or dance. Seriously, despite the tone of that article, I don't think I've ever seen one "in the wild" in Serbia. Not even out in the sticks. Or in the sticks of Republika Srpska, for that matter. But everyone's got one in a drawer somewhere...RoseMorninStar wrote:Could it have something to do with this: Šajkača – the Serbian Folk CapRiver wrote:It's been days.

And yet I haven't seen any Democrats claiming that such a swing is mathematically impossible and must therefore represent Republican election fraud.Túrin Turambar wrote:Enough results are in now for the NYT's election map to be basically complete. To me, the most interesting map by far is the county-by-data on the swings from 2016.

These counties (or equivalent) swung to Trump:
- Most strongly, heavily-Hispanic counties in southern Florida and along the Mexican border. Starr County, TX, had the biggest swing of any county, going 55 points more Republican than in 2016.
And the judge who wrote the opinion rejecting the Trump campaign's claims is a Trump appointee.Voronwë the Faithful wrote:Third Circuit of the Court of Appeals resoundingly rejects the Trump Campaign's appeal in the Pennsylvania case. Resoundingly.
