9. AKP voters film themselves voting twice in Mus.
Even with the blatant acts of voter fraud, Adadolu Agency, the AKP’s largest propaganda arm, is reporting that HDP is currently at around 9% of the vote. If HDP reach 10%, AKP will once again lose a majority.
10. Hundreds of votes still yet to be delievered to the electoral council, yet AKP has claimed more than a 90% victory some how.

12. Another incident where HDP members are trapped. This one in Umraniye district in Istanbul. The crowd is burning HDP flags.
13. Very suspicious... MHP claim to have increased popularity with the vote in Kurdish areas. MHP is a far-right ultranationalist party whose “Grey Wolf” members have slaughtered many many Kurdish dissidents. Increased support is highly unlikely.

Originally said to be a false alarm, this incident is now officially being treating as an attack on Maduro. It's reported that two explosions went off, one allegedly being an IED dropped from a commercial drone.
The Minister of Communication has said that there were two drone IEDs (not in those words) and that it was an attempted to assassinate Maduro.
A few people have pointed out that it looks as if someone on Maduro’s right goes down at 14 seconds (from the clip originally posted by @EfectoCocuyo). I slowed it down. Not sure if he's just tripped over the chair or what, but it does looks as if they saw something coming near.
THREAD showing evidence I've come across that suggests the recent murder of a young Jewish man in California was committed by a neo-Nazi, possibly as a politically motivated killing. (Sat on this for a week waiting on editors but now bits of the info are already out, so fuck it).
On January 2nd a 19-year-old Jewish man went missing in southern California. He turned up dead on Jan 9th, buried in a shallow grave in Borrego Park (wikimapia.org/#lang=en&lat=3…). A former class-mate was arrested on suspicion of the murder on Jan 12th.
The deceased is Blaze Bernstein and the suspected killer--now charged with the murder--is Sam Woodward, 20. (Referred to here on out as Blaze and Sam). See the next tweet for the LA Times story.
