READ: John Rogers Dismantles Theory About Alabama Voter Fraud

On Tuesday, Democrat Doug Jones won a special election in Alabama to take over the Senate seat vacated by Republican Jeff Sessions. The campaign was hotly contested, even with multiple allegations against his Republican challenger, Roy Moore, of sexual misconduct and assault against minors.


Jones' victory marked the first time in 25 years that an Alabama Democrat has won a seat in the Senate, and it was mainly due to an overwhelming turnout from Alabama's black citizens.

But, of course, the far right loves a good conspiracy theory. And after Jones' win, there were plenty to go around.

Twitter went into full mocking mode:

That's when TV writer John Rogers entered the fray. To totally annihilate the theory in an epic rant.

And he didn't hold back:

And why does Rogers feel he has the authority to destroy the far-fetched theory with such precision?

Well, the fact they he's an accomplished writer in the heist and con genre certainly helps:

Rogers is the co-creator of the TNT drama Leverage, as well as a writer for The Librarians, so he clearly knows his way around a secret conspiratorial plot.

Twitter showed their admiration for Rogers' expert takedown:

Although it did make people (mock) wonder...

Katie Miller—former Trump administration member turned Elon Musk employee and wife of White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, Homeland Security Advisor, and unofficial Reich Minister of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda Stephen Miller—stepped in it again online with her Mother’s Day Lebensborn propaganda post.

The Lebensborn ("Fount of Life") program was an SS-initiated organization founded by Heinrich Himmler, operating in Nazi Germany and Nazi occupied territories, to increase the birth rate of "Aryan" children by calling on unmarried women to do their duty for the Fatherland and become baby factories, pumping out as many children as possible to be placed in proper Nazi households.
