It's more clear that it's a gesture in the full video; he does the same motion a bunch of times. This time there happens to be an intern in front of him.

White House hiring Michael Tracey as a selfdefense trainer to the interns was an unconventional choice, and I have to say I don't think it's working out.

Can someone smarter than me explain what the value is in Abrams or Nelson calling for a recount? It looks like the average amount of votes to change in a recount is 250, which is wildly less than their margins. Is the hope just to discover some kind of widespread fraud?

I think it's more that Kemp purposely sabotaged the vote by physically holding back voting machines and shutting down precincts on a whim. The man is guilty as gently caress. Out of Florida I heard that a precinct was put right in the middle of a gated retirement community, and security would not let people in to vote. Serious fuckery going on.

In Georgia's case, a recount means time to draw attention to this race + corruption around it, cement voter suppression as the narrative, and get a do-over. In the case of Florida, if its close enough (less than 0.25% difference I think?) then it requires a recount by hand, which allows contesting ballots that the secretary of state rejected.

In Georgia specifically they’re worried about provisional ballots not being counted. They’re asking anyone who cast a provisional ballot to call a hotline to be sure their vote is counted. I’ll let you guess what demographic probably had to cast a lot of provisional ballots and had their votes not counted for some “irregularities” or some bullshit. Stacey Abrams is absolutely doing the right thing by demanding a recount and keeping a light shining on the whole process so it’s harder for Kemp to pull some bullshit.
