RUTHFULLY YOURS

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/12/joe_biden_admits_who_he_believes_really_won_the_2020_election.html

One of the things elderly people are famous for is losing their filter, that little auto-edit in the brain that stops them from saying inappropriate things. Many lose their filter because they just don’t care (and good for them). Others, though, lose it because nature has cruelly attacked their brain function. The problem is exceptionally bad when the person wasn’t too bright or too filtered to begin with. And that brings us to Joe Biden, who just announced that Kamala Harris is the real President-elect.

You and I know that Donald Trump really won the election. (Here’s just a short list of reasons he won. It’s from a month ago and there’s even more evidence now.) Nevertheless, Mrs. Joe Biden (aka “Dr” Jill Biden) and Joe’s other handlers have told him that he won.

Now, Joe probably isn’t so far gone that he actually believes that’s true. After all, in another filter failure before the election, he admitted that the Democrat party had put together the “most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization” in American history. Considering that always reading from TelePrompters, that was his failing brain screaming out the truth.

Still, Joe’s excited about being sworn in as President of the United States, even if it means placing his hand on a Bible and lying that he “will to the best of [his] Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.” (Anyone who is dedicated to enacting the hard-leftist agenda that defines the modern Democrat party and who willingly sold his country out to Ukraine and China to make a buck for himself is not preserving, protecting, or defending the Constitution.)

As I said, Joe’s excited but there’s a little subliminal knot of anxiety gnawing away at him. He knows, of course, that Donald Trump really won the election and Joe merely appears to have won only because of that “extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization.”

There are lots of words to describe how we feel right now.  None of them is good.  It seems the left has checkmated us at every turn.

But we must shake the victim mentality.  It is the antithesis of what it means to be an American.

No matter how overwhelmed we feel and no matter how daunting or hopeless our options may seem, we must fight for this country.  We can do it en masse on January 6.

As a brief aside: For those who want to fight but only if victory is assured, I recommend disconnecting those two things.  We can only fight onward, never knowing when, or if, we will be victorious.

If we don’t fight, then we have surrendered.  Those are the options.  Pick one.

If we don’t fight because we feel tired, discouraged, and hopeless, then we don’t do justice to all who came before us — to all who risked their lives to build and protect this nation and define what it means to be an American.

Please turn down the volume in your brain that wants to say something snarky and cynical.  We don’t have the luxury of such thinking.

President Trump has been fighting for us for four years — f

A researcher at the Department of Justice on Tuesday released a 25-page report indicating a high probability of voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election. World-renown economist John Lott Ph.D., examined election results from Pennsylvania and Georgia, as well as potential election fraud in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, and Wisconsin.

“This paper’s approach allows us to quantify how large a potential problem vote fraud and other abnormalities might be in the 2020 election,” Dr. Lott wrote.

White House advisor Peter Navarro heralded Lott’s study results on Twitter:

Navarro released his own study of six contested states earlier this month, alleging “a coordinated strategy” to steal the election, “or unfairly tilt the playing field in favor of the Biden-Harris ticket.”

Lott’s study compared Fulton County Georgia’s precincts to similar precincts in neighboring counties that had no allegations of fraud. The purpose of the exercise, Lott wrote, was “to isolate the impact of Fulton county’s vote-counting process (including potential fraud).”

In 2016, there was little difference between Fulton County and its surrounding counties, according to Lott. But in 2020, with  controls for demographic and in-person voting variables, he found that President Trump’s percentage of absentee votes was 7.81 percent lower in Fulton county than precincts in neighboring counties.

In measuring the difference in President Trump’s vote share of the absentee ballots for these adjacent precincts, we account for the difference in his vote share of the in-person voting and the difference in registered voters’ demographics. The best estimate shows an unusual 7.81% drop in Trump’s percentage of the absentee ballots for Fulton County alone of 11,350 votes, or over 80% of Biden’s vote lead in Georgia.

Throughout the course of his run for president, Joe Biden has been full of gaffes. He has managed to “forget” important information, like what office he was running for, who his wife and sister are, what day Super Tuesday falls on, and the name of the Chinese President, Xi Jingping. 

It should come as no surprise that Biden had another gaffe when on Tuesday he referred to Kamala Harris as “president-elect.” He made the comments during a press conference after Harris received the first dose of the Wuhan coronavirus vaccine. Yes, it is the same vaccine that she said she would never receive while President Donald Trump was in office.

We all knew Harris was going to be running the show. Joe is too far gone to run the country. That is why he spent the majority of the campaign hidden in his basement. It is why Kamala was the face of the campaign, at least on the ground. And that is why, in theory, most people are referring to Biden as a figurehead. Kamala will be running the show.

Plus, who could forget that Harris herself referred to their administration as the “Harris administration” not too long ago?

Rank-and-file conservatives have embraced Donald Trump. But even after four years, and everything he’s done for America, a hard core of leaders and intellectuals remains stridently anti-Trump. Their problem isn’t philosophical but psychological.

Speaking on CNN on December 23, former National Security Advisor John Bolton said The Donald was “never fit to be president.” Did he reach that conclusion before or after Trump fired him?

By any standard, Trump is our most successful conservative president:

Revived a moribund economy – check. Made America energy-independent – check. Defended our southern border – check. Cut taxes and regulations – check. Appointed constitutionalist judges (including three Supreme Court justices) – check. Moved our embassy to Jerusalem — check. Promoted the right-to-life at every opportunity – check. Put America first in foreign policy and trade – check.

Without a hard-driving, take-charge businessman at 1600, Operation Warp-Speed would have been Operation Don’t-Exceed-The-Speed-Limit. Money for a COVID vaccine would have been balanced by funding for the Kennedy Center and gender studies in Pakistan.

So what’s their problem with POTUS? Character, they tell us. He’s crude, bombastic and arrogant — unlike all of the humble souls who’ve succeeded at politics.

In terms of its leadership, we are a movement of jealous dwarfs.

Goldwater (never the brightest bulb in the pack) was so envious of Ronald Reagan that he supported the senior Bush – a Republican swamp creature — over the Gipper for the Republican nomination in 1980. That’s how he repaid the man who gave him the only memorable moment of his otherwise lackluster ’64 campaign – the televised address, “A Time for Choosing.”

As Republicans began pushing back against the rigged election, a quote about voting from Joseph Stalin began circulating on social media. “The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything,” is how variations of it went.

As soon as the quote went viral, the media’s fact checkers tried to suppress it.

USA Today’s fact checker rated it as false, claiming that Stalin had never said it based on speaking with two history professors at Vanderbilt University who vowed that they never heard of it. One of the professors, who serves as the Director of Undergraduate Russian and East European Studies, ranted that it was, “an example of American right-wing paranoia, active manipulation of public opinion, or outright and fascism”. Truly a quote worthy of Stalin.

But had the ‘fact checker’ and the professors just checked Oxford’s Essential Quotations, they would have found it. You don’t need a PhD or a fact checker title: just a modicum of integrity.

Politifact was more ambitious about humiliating itself by contacting the Stalin Digital Archive with the Russian State Archive of Social and Political History. The quote wouldn’t be there because it comes from Stalin’s former secretary, Boris Bazhanov, who fled the USSR and wrote a memoir exposing the crimes and corruption of the Soviet regime. Asking the Russian State Archive for that quote is like asking the cosa nostra to fact check a mafia informant’s recollections.

The men who were party to that conversation were the ‘Troika’ of Central Committee leaders, Kamenev, Zinoviev, and Stalin, who temporarily governed the USSR after Lenin. Since Stalin had Kamenev and Zinoviev killed, his secretary was one of the few to hear him say it.

Yes, by all means, continue the court battles. Step up the investigations.

But understand, rubber band – with the Electoral College’s vote, the Great Reign Robbery of 2020 is a done deal. And the union is essentially dissolved with the corrupt Democratocracy’s brazen withdrawal of America’s core premise: the consent of the governed.

Momentum is growing for the logical next step: a New America Opt-Out potentially led by the 18 states officially on record, in Texas’ Supreme Court case, as declaring the presidency stolen. 

Yet facing facts again: the unavoidable Red-Blue Partition will likely take time – especially given certain, raw intimidation by the Ruling Class, Cancel Culture and media. (“You racists!”)

Meaning a Plan B is needed. The good news: your correspondent is, as always, at the ready – and looking to our United Kingdom cousins for a variation on the concept of the Shadow Cabinet.

Here’s the gist: Donald Trump remains the rightfully elected president. So he should act like it – by forming a private-sector Shadow Presidency designed not just to protect his legacy from Joe Biden’s illegitimate administration, but also to advance his outstanding second-term agenda.

The Shadow Presidency will need a formal structure: perhaps a souped-up version of a 2024 campaign. A think tank ( “Keep America Great Foundation”). Or simply an “Office of President Trump,” a higher-level version of the “Office of Barack and Michelle Obama” established to manage people-to-people communications and appearances.

Should President Donald Trump’s election challenges fail to keep Joe Biden out of the White House, it’s a certainty that bleak days will be ahead. We’re staring into the barrel of at least four years of sclerotic economic growth.

Six days after the election, Biden, employing the Democratic Party strategy of sowing fear whenever possible, warned that the country is facing a long night.

“Before the surge in COVID cases we predicted, many predicted, and the deaths rise that we’ve seen in December … we head into a very dark winter ahead,” he said.

He also lamented the “grim” jobs report, which showed “an economy that is stalling.” Employment grew by only 245,000 in November, “well below the 440,000 expected by economists and a sharp drop from the 610,000 reported in October,” CNBC reported.

“We remain in the midst of one of the worst economic and job crises in modern history,” said the man who as vice president oversaw one of the weakest economic recoveries in U.S. history.

Apparently it never occurred to Biden and his handlers that government intervention, not the virus, caused 2020’s downturn. Nor have they even begun to understand that Democrats’ economic policies, filled with steep, punitive taxes, and impossible-to-jump regulatory hurdles, are a slow-motion march of the economic lockdowns that almost instantly paralyzed the economy this year.

Two counties in Georgia will be required to undo a decision that removed more than 4,000 voters from the rolls before the January 5 U.S. Senate runoff elections, a federal judge ruled Monday.

Judge Leslie Abrams Gardner, the sister of former gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, found that the counties seemed to have improperly relied on unverified change-of-address data to invalidate the more than 4,000 registrations in Muscogee County and 150 registrations from Ben Hill County.

President-elect Joe Biden won Muscogee County in November, while President Trump carried Ben Hill County, according to Politico.

Majority Forward, a group led by Democratic Party attorney Marc Elias, filed the suit in response to a challenge to the voter registrations on December 14 after a local voter found that the registrations seemed to match U.S. Postal Service change-of-address records. The voter, Ralph Russell, said he believed that signified that the voters had moved out of Georgia, though Democrats argued that the postal data is not an adequate indicator that a voter has given up their local residence.

“I believe that each of the individuals named … as a result of registering their name and change of address to a location outside of Muscogee County, removed to another state with the intention of making the new state their residence,” Russell told the county board. “Thus, each individual has lost their residence in Muscogee County, and consequently, each individual is ineligible to vote in Muscogee County.”
