Supporters of Donald Trump are growing increasingly desperate to prove fraud occurred election night rather than admit Trump lost bigly.

This has led to some, at best, embarrassing situations for these people.


But the claims can get dangerous too, as a Gwinnett County employee in Georgia discovered.

Police responded to claims of an employee removing a computer, only to discover it was not what was reported.

An Oklahoma Trump supporter watched a Twitter livestream from another user who claimed a man left a county building in Georgia with boxes of election computers. This made the Oklahoma man so upset he called the police department in another state to get someone to investigate.

Lawrenceville Police Department in Georgia was called and an incredibly pointless report was filed. In their report they stated the Oklahoma man was upset and wanted an officer to watch the livestream, figure out where the vehicle was and stop it.

The officer tracked down the Twitter user who livestreamed and followed the employee for ten miles. The officer investigated the boxes and found the employee was just upgrading desk phones in county offices.

No computers were found.

The officer's report explained what happened.

"(The Twitter user) advised why he was following the vehicle, because he believed the vehicle contained computers that had data on the 2020 General Election still on their hard drives."
"The Officer in the stream investigated the boxes in the (vehicle) and found that they were boxes of new desk phones that the County was upgrading to."




Back at the county office, a group of people watched the back door to ensure there weren't any computers being discarded, but also spent time harassing county employees.

Due to this harassment, the officer forced the group to move to the front of the building.

During the livestream, the Twitter user tried to tell the officer that "nobody was monitoring the voting facilities."

The officer responded:

"They've been monitoring the facilities all day."

Undeterred, the Twitter user again falsely claimed computers were taken from the county election office.

Another officer quickly shut that down.

"I'm gonna tell you, straight up, you're wrong. Because he's just a county worker replacing phones for the county."




Incidents like this led to a Georgia election official, Gabriel Sterling, condemning the rhetoric of President Trump. He compared shooting down these election conspiracy theories to "the most annoying game of whack-a-mole you can imagine."

He asked President Trump along with other administration officials to condemn this misinformation about the election process and the harassment of government employees simply doing their jobs.

The White House has yet to comment.

Moments After Threatening To Bomb Iran, President Trump Just Revealed His Birthday Wish—And It's Irony At Its Finest

President Donald Trump's 80th birthday is this week and his claim that his birthday wish is "peace for the world" had people raising their eyebrows, especially considering it came after he threatened to bomb Iran again.

Earlier this week, Trump declared in a post on Truth Social that Iran's military "is a complete and total mess" and bragged that most of their forces have been "completely defeated," adding:

We Just Got Our First Look At The Official Popcorn Bucket For 'The Odyssey'—And Everyone Is Making The Same Joke

At this point, movie studios aren't competing at the box office. They're competing to see who can create the most unhinged popcorn bucket.

We've had giant sandworms. We've had oversized Deadpool & Wolverine helmets. We've had designer handbags full of popcorn. We even somehow survived the predictably lackluster Melania Trump popcorn bucket era. Now, The Odyssey has entered the chat with a Trojan Horse popcorn bucket, because apparently subtlety died somewhere around 2024.

'X-Men' Star Has Important Wakeup Call For Men After Revealing He's Been Diagnosed With 'Super Rare' Breast Cancer

Breast cancer does not discriminate between people. While it is more common in women, one out of 755 men will also be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime.

Because "breasts" are associated with women, people—including doctors—often do not recognize early signs of breast cancer in men, so they are less likely to be diagnosed until a later stage, which makes treatment more difficult.
