It seemed like on the other hand many were saying the claim of there being fraud involved in this election was outlandish.
The idea that any significant fraud occurred is outlandish and even Bill Barr will admit that fact.

What's outlandish is witnesses such as this, depressingly typical of the allegations raised by Trump & Co.
It's a shame this meeting wasn't carried out under oath. That might have focused minds somewhat.
It's difficult to listen to her while reading all the pop-ups. But that aside, I'm not going to dismiss what she's saying because she's part of Trump & Co. Stuff like this has to viewed impartially as possible if it's going to be viewed properly. Which hopefully the deciding powers are doing.

For a second there I got Bill Barr mixed up with the comedian Bill Burr.
But if this is, after all this time and all these failed accusations, one of their star witnesses...

Burr is actually funny

I didn't mean you specifically, I just meant in general. Really because it's an easy thing to do. For me that started with Sean Spicer's first press conference regarding inauguration attendance. She claims she's one of the few who has the courage to be a witness because of threats and intimidation. That might be true and therefore she's the best they have to work with. I really don't know for sure.

Assume the footage is people trying to fix the election.
The count has Biden ahead by 12,000 votes or so. Those two containers moved did not contain nearly the amount of ballots to revert the results
Right now the electoral college is Biden 306 Trump 232. If somehow Georgia was fixed and Trump really won Georgia 16 electoral college votes the count would be Biden 290 Trump 248.
Back to the real world
Biden officially secures enough electors to become president
Secretary of State Alex Padilla’s formal approval of Biden’s win in the state brought his tally of pledged electors so far to 279, according to a tally by The Associated Press. That’s just over the 270 threshold for victory.
Judges turn back claims by Trump and his allies in six states as the president’s legal effort founders
They have not earned your vote': Trump allies urge Georgia Republicans to sit out Senate runoffs
Attorneys Lin Wood and Sidney Powell told a crowd of Trump loyalists not to vote for either of the two Georgia incumbent Republican senators, Kelly Loeffler

It remains to be seen how this apparent contradiction (regarding the timing) gets resolved, but my guess is that the above-quoted ABC news reporter may have gotten the "counters" (who stayed later) mixed up with the "cutters" (the ones who did leave at around 10:30 PM, according to Lead Stories).
Reporters often get mixed up on details of this sort. Whenever I've had occasion to see a news report on anything I've been involved in, there were always inaccuracies.
To me it seems prima facie unlikely that there would have been any significant amount of fraud. You evidently feel otherwise. We shall see.
Remember it's also backed by witnesses. Two observers, who can identify themselves on the CCTV, signed affidavits saying that the blonde lady (who is not Regina Weller the ABC source) announced to the room that counting was to be stopped and to be resumed at 8:30 which is why they say they went home along with the film crew. According to their affidavits, when they heard rumours that counting had continued without their observation they rushed back to that counting room early in the morning. Both events look concordant with the tapes and/or press reports.
Another thing to consider. If it's just the cutters leaving the room, why do the counters that stay behind not continue working throughout? Why do they wait until the press and observers have left and then start processing ballots?

This is totally not suspicious.

The Michigan State Republican Party Friday sounded an alarm about an ethically questionable memo authorized by Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson that “is pushing for the mass deletion of election data.”
Michigan Republican Party Chairman Laura Cox in a statement Friday, said that Benson’s office issued orders to clerks in Michigan counties to “delete Electronic Poll Book software and associated files” even as calls to audit the election persist.
I thought destroying election material before 22 months were up was a federal crime. Either way why do this unless you have something to hide?

One of the most courageous decisions you will ever make is to let go of what is hurting you, heart and soul.
Trump lost.
Biden won.
There is nothing you can do, say, or post to change that, so let it go and move on.

This expresses what I think of Trump's various attempts to challenge election results...
