Feels like the maxim:

> extraordinary claim requires extraordinary evidence

Burden of proof seems to be on the conspiracy nuts.

Thus far, courts have said no and none of the big names have been willing to testify in support under oath. Seems like APs claim is already supported.

@ferricoxide @w7voa does he want them to prove the claims still thrive on Twitter (easy) or that they are false (never proven as true).

I'm guessing he is trying to feel smart by challenging someone to prove what doesn't exist.

I'm feeling an "absence of evidence isn't the same as evidence of absence" inbound.

@ferricoxide @w7voa @ATLeagle I learned that in Boolean Logic. The old “vacuously true” gag. What a maroon he is.
