Hey there, Twitter.
So today I talked to Mellissa Carone, who you know from the Internet this week.
Up until a few weeks before the election, she was on probation for… well I’ll just let you read it.
Quite a convo! https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mellissa-carone-wright-rudy-giuliani-trump-voter-fraud-detroit-michigan_n_5fcb94e9c5b63a1534523506?7t

Mellissa Carone’s story, as of today, is that… she lied to the police about a computer-related crime that she now claims her fiancé committed using her phone. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mellissa-carone-wright-rudy-giuliani-trump-voter-fraud-detroit-michigan_n_5fcb94e9c5b63a1534523506?7t
Mellissa Carone told me she “talked to Trump and Giuliani” about her claims.
Woah! She talked to the president? Huge news! I asked for details.
She then made clear that she didn’t actually talk to Trump. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mellissa-carone-wright-rudy-giuliani-trump-voter-fraud-detroit-michigan_n_5fcb94e9c5b63a1534523506

Still can’t believe I passed on this earth-shattering scoop, smh. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mellissa-carone-wright-rudy-giuliani-trump-voter-fraud-detroit-michigan_n_5fcb94e9c5b63a1534523506
In other news I used another number to text Rudy Giuliani (who appears to have blocked me on WhatsApp and iMessage) and, he responded!

For the record this face translates perfectly over the phone.
Mellissa Carone says it’s not a false allegation when she just regurgitates “what I assumed to be the truth at the time.” https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mellissa-carone-wright-rudy-giuliani-trump-voter-fraud-detroit-michigan_n_5fcb94e9c5b63a1534523506
There’s A LOT about Mellissa Carone that we chose not to put into the story because it’s not directly related to her credibility. And we’ve all had a good laugh about her testimony. But she’s also part of a propaganda campaign to disenfranchise millions! https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mellissa-carone-wright-rudy-giuliani-trump-voter-fraud-detroit-michigan_n_5fcb94e9c5b63a1534523506
There are some worthwhile thoughts here. It’s a tough issue! It’s simultaneously hilarious and extremely dangerous! https://twitter.com/millicentsomer/status/1334936158162206720
