Quote:One of the people helping coordinate the review is John Brakey, founder of AUDIT Elections USA. Speaking to a reporter from a local CBS affiliate, he explained one of the tests that was being conducted as part of the review process.

“There’s accusations that 40,000 ballots were flown in to Arizona and it was stuffed into the box, okay?” Brakey said. “And it came from the southeast part of the world, Asia, okay? And what they’re doing is to find out if there’s bamboo in the paper.” Because, he added later, “they use bamboo in their paper processing, people in southeast Asia.”

He discussed the high-definition cameras being used to photograph the ballots, noting that it was a process that could identify if ballots were hand-completed. He also made clear that he didn’t really believe the bamboo-ballot theory.

“I don’t believe any of that,” Brakey said. “I’m just saying that is part of the mystery that we want to un-gaslight people about and this is a way to do it.”

There’s obviously value in debunking false narratives. The problem with the Great Bamboo Conspiracy, though, is two-fold: first, that the claims about ballots being flown in don’t pass an initial smell test and, second, that the process being used by the volunteers in Arizona wouldn’t be able to detect bamboo anyway.

It’s actually a bit hard to track down the source of the “40,000 ballots from Asia” story. Before the election, Trump and his allies repeatedly claimed that ballots could be brought in from overseas and added to counts, a claim that by itself was never feasible. It requires precisely forging ballots, completing them without detection, ensuring that they are from registered voters who hadn’t already voted and, perhaps most importantly, getting them into the country without detection.

The great bamboo hunt: Arizona’s bizarre vote-examination effort gets more bizarre

It'd be hilarious if it weren't so tragic.

So why in your world is debunking every possible scenario tragically hilarious? Why not look under every rock? Make sure there is no stone unturned to validate Lump Heads highly unlikely victory. You can have your validation that Lump Head did indeed out perform Barry and every other candidate in the history of this country. Not to mention while taking down an incumbent president who got 16,000,000 more votes that in the previous election that he won.

Boy that doesn’t sound right. Millions of more votes than his first victory yet he loses by just 43,000 votes in swing states that had voting issues? That’s almost to wild to believe!....

Because it's a waste of time and money and does nothing but sow doubt where there does not need to be. It's destructive.

Well it’s wasting the money of people you hate, so.....
The only time of yours it’s wasting is your time spent here complaining about it, so.....
It won’t be destructive if it finds nothing, so....
