ELECTIONS

As long as you can keep fighting, fight! By Bonne Bete

Since even my one stalwart for watching conservative content, Fox News, has gone over to the dark side, I mostly get my information these days from reading and a few podcasts.  It’s really all I can do to keep up with the ones I really like, so I barely even miss the TV.  I’ve made myself a Rumble account — MeWe and Parler as well.  But print sources, like American Thinker, keep me the most informed.  I get so much encouragement from some of the articles and blog posts.  This terrible time of uncertainty would be almost unbearable otherwise.  However, the doubt and regret still creep in way more than I want to see. 

Many articles focus on the what-if scenario of a Biden administration, and while I know that we have to at least contemplate that possibility, I think those thoughts should not be what we focus on now.  We all know that the outcome of this election was critical to every single freedom that we hold dear.  We all know this down to our cores, and it is why we are filled with dread at the thought of a Biden presidency and all that comes with it.  Other articles are full of ideas for how to cope with the inevitable and how to maybe even get along.  Well, excuse me, but this is not the time for that! 

This is not something that any freedom-loving American can “get along” with.  We need to fight this with every fiber of our beings until there is nothing left to do.  Pray; donate; encourage others; sign petitions; send letters; and never, ever give up.  As long as Donald Trump has the wherewithal to keep fighting for us, we simply have to fight with him.  None of the niceties or platitudes impresses me at all.  This is war — not a bloody war, at least not yet, but make no mistake about it: it is war.

It’s up to the Supreme Court to hold America together By Terry Paulding

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

The best outcome for maintaining a constitutional America is for the Supreme Court to make a unanimous finding of fraud that allows it to remedy the current election outcome. Otherwise, the Democrats will succeed with planned, blatant fraud to unseat President Trump, irrevocably destroying the necessary trust Americans must have in their political system.

For mid-20th century Americans, raised on Rawhide, Superman, Perry Mason, Leave it to Beaver, Lassie, morality was clear. Uniformly, these shows had themes that included moral Goodness conquering cold, calculating Evil. The plots were just as black-and-white as our TV sets.

Across burgeoning suburban communities, public schools taught a traditional curriculum of history, English, math, and science, with a dose of physical education, drama, and music. Most importantly, that generation still learned that America’s foundation (although sometimes imperfectly executed) was that citizens had equal opportunity and the liberty to pursue their dreams. Much has changed from those rather idyllic times, but we have to hope that some of the Supreme Court justices, who also hail from that era, will remember what that was like.

In the coming days, these same justices will inevitably be faced with a historic decision. Anyone paying attention (including 30% of Democrat voters) knows that massive voter fraud pushed Biden into the lead. Fraud was the only way Joe Biden, who did not campaign and appeared so de-energized as to be mentally feeble, could win the election.

Mainstream media bias, the tech giants’ censorship and cancelation, and the lies of elected and appointed officials worked together to hide the evidence. These institutions, plus woke leftists in our daily life, have put enormous pressure on Americans not to see the truth and, as importantly, not to speak the truth.

Does a surveillance video prove Georgia election fraud? By Andrea Widburg

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

Georgia’s Fulton County, the most populous in the state, claimed it needed to stop absentee ballot overnight on November 3-4 because of a burst pipe. That was a lie. There was no burst pipe, and the counting didn’t stop. At a hearing on Thursday, surveillance footage emerged showing that the ballots being secretly counted came from suitcases hidden under a table.

Here’s what seems to have happened: In Fulton County, Georgia, the people who planned to add fake ballots to Biden’s vote count on election night had an overall good plan. First, announce that a burst pipe required everybody to vacate the building until morning and, second, count fake votes.

The planners missed two details. First, they forgot to make sure the government’s documents supported the “burst pipe” narrative. Text messages emerged showing that nothing had burst. Instead, there was a quickly contained slow leak that didn’t even generate a work order.

Second, they forgot that the State Farm Arena, where the counting took place, has surveillance cameras all over. On Wednesday, intrepid volunteers obtained the videos from the surveillance cameras in the room in which the count took place and, by doing so, may have discovered the election fraud smoking gun.

In the video below, at a hearing about election fraud in Georgia on Thursday, a volunteer narrates the video showing surveillance footage of the same room from four different angles:

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp Calls For Signature Audit of Ballots Following Release of Bombshell ‘Ballot-Stuffing’ Video By Debra Heine

Georgia Governor Brian Kemp called on Sec. of State State Brad Raffensperger to conduct a signature audit after a bombshell video unveiled by President Trump’s legal team on Thursday showed what appeared to be a ballot-stuffing operation in Fulton County on Election night.

The surveillance video shows crooked election workers at the State Farm Arena in Fulton County pulling suitcases filled with ballots out from under a table after poll observers had been sent home.

During a hearing in the Georgia State Senate, Jacki Pick, an attorney assisting Trump’s legal team, presented the shocking video showing four female election workers counting the ballots after the room had been cleared.

“I called early on for a signature audit,” Kemp told Fox News host Laura Ingraham Thursday night. “Obviously, the Secretary of State, per the laws and the Constitution, would have to order that. He has not done that. I think it should be done,” he added.

The governor told Ingraham that he supports the president’s legal efforts in the state.

“Especially with what we saw today, it raises more questions. There needs to be more transparency on that,” he said.

“I think in the next 24 hours hopefully we’ll see a lot more from the hearings that the legislature had today and we’ll be able to look and see what the next steps are,” Kemp said.

David Shafer, the Chairman of the Georgia Republican Party, said the party has supported the governor in his “repeated calls for an audit of the absentee signature verification process.”

Shut Up and Take It It doesn’t matter how many times the ruling class has misled us, either intentionally or purposely. After all, who are you to complain? By Julie Kelly

https://amgreatness.com/2020/12/03/shut-up-and-take-it/

“Now we are told that election fraud isn’t real, just another “baseless conspiracy theory” promoted by QAnon and the Bad Orange Man. Despite extensive evidence to the contrary, offered by a handful of Americans still fruitlessly tethered to the U.S. Constitution and a sense of patriotic duty, the ruling class assures us there is nothing to see. Witnesses are harassed, bullied, and mocked for having the wrong hair; any credible claims of law-breaking are met with promises to “get it right next time.”

Shut up and take it.”

Dave Morris was fed up.

As a gainfully-employed television news reporter aired a live segment outside a small café to tell viewers that Morris was keeping his business open despite a government order to close it, the Portage, Michigan restaurant owner confronted him. The Kalamazoo Health Department had issued a warning to Morris on December 1 for allowing indoor dining against the wishes of Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer; he was instructed to shut down his business immediately or face a fine imposed by the government.

The local journalist was on the scene, however, to tattle.

“Everyone needs to stand up,” Morris told WWMT-TV reporter Tavarious Haywood on Wednesday. “This isn’t an order . . . this is tyranny. Wake up, stand up, this is America, be free.” (Haywood later tweeted about his own bravery in the face of an “angry business owner” who “interrupted” him.)

Morris, who has owned D&R’s Daily Grind Cafe for 12 years, said he’s lost $100,000 in business this year and is going broke. “I can go down quietly or I can go down making some noise so people understand what’s going on,” he said.

But this is America in the year 2020. People like Morris—or really anyone not empowered with an executive pen or a cable news gig or a sinecure in some public health bureaucracy—are supposed to go down and go down quietly.

Shut up and take it.

The Dems Had No Choice But to Rig the Election This time they were ready — because there was too much at stake. Ayad Rahim

Looking back at the unusual election we just had, and viewing it in the context of political events going back 150 years, it’s clear that the Democrats had no choice but to rig the presidential election — and, now, they’re going for all the marbles.

In the last weeks of the presidential campaign, Donald Trump was drawing tens of thousands of enthusiastic supporters several times a day, and people across the land, and at sea, formed massive rallies and caravans of their own. Meanwhile, the Biden camp was barely limping along, with one or two funereal gatherings a week, before, at best, a few dozen people (sometimes, overwhelmingly outnumbered by Trump supporters); the campaign’s apparent strategy was to minimize the candidate’s exposure (and let the media do the work for them) — not only because the candidate was feeble and the campaign advocated lockdowns, but also because evidence began emerging of the Biden family’s dealings with foreign oligarchs and corrupt countries — most importantly, Communist China.

So, as election day approached, things were looking good for the president. Indeed, as the results came in on election night, the president was headed for re-election. He was ahead in the electoral college, and had big leads in the handful of remaining states he needed to win.

Then, suddenly, the counting stopped. Late at night, five decisive states announced at the same time that they stopped counting. Has the counting of votes ever stopped on election night in any election, let alone a presidential election? It’s as if, with a couple of minutes left to play in a basketball game, one team is way ahead and “running away with it,” and the other team is down and dejected, staring defeat in the face; and all of a sudden, the referees stop the game for the first time ever, and for no stated reason. Then they send the team that’s winning, home, blindfold them, and tie their hands; leave the trailing team on the court by itself, with control of the scoreboard and the keys; and ask them to send in the final score, whenever they want. If there were fans in the stands, they’d yell, “How much they payin’ you, ref?”

Byron York’s Daily Memo: Are Trump allies trying to sabotage GOP in Georgia? by Byron York,

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/byron-yorks-daily-memo-are-trump-allies-trying-to-sabotage-gop-in-georgia

ARE TRUMP ALLIES TRYING TO SABOTAGE GOP IN GEORGIA? Wednesday witnessed one of the most extraordinary events in recent political history. With two critical Senate races underway in Georgia — with Republican control of the Senate at stake — two prominent allies of a Republican president traveled to the state to urge voters not to vote for Republican candidates.

Sidney Powell and Lin Wood, two attorneys who are pursuing lawsuits alleging massive voter fraud in the presidential election in Georgia and elsewhere, attended a “Stop the Steal” rally in Alpharetta, outside of Atlanta. The rally came a little more than a month before Georgia’s January 5 runoff elections, in which Republican Senators David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler are running against Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock. If either Perdue or Loeffler wins, Republicans will have a narrow 51-49 majority in the Senate. If both win, a 52-48 majority will give Senate Republicans more power. But if Democrats win both races, the Senate will be split 50-50 and in the control of Democrats, since a Vice President Kamala Harris will have the tie-breaking vote.

With the swearing-in of Joe Biden as president, and with Democrats remaining in control of the House, the future of the Senate is absolutely critical to Republican fortunes. If GOP lawmakers control the Senate, they can stop Biden’s agenda cold. If Democrats control, they can enact the Biden agenda, and in the process wipe away much of President Trump’s legacy. So Georgia is the whole ball game.

Which is why Wednesday’s rally was so weird. In her speech, Powell expanded on her theory that Dominion machines and Smartmatic software, developed for the late Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez, were used to change millions of votes from Trump to Biden. Now, she puts more emphasis on China. “We’ve already traced a lot of the money that did this back to China,” Powell told the crowd.

Biden, the ‘Not’ Candidate, Does Not Have a Mandate By J. Peder Zane

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2020/12/03/biden_the_not_candidate_does_not_have_a_mandate_144773.html

Kudos to Joe Biden for already fulfilling his one and only campaign promise: He’s not Donald Trump. Problem is, a four-year term awaits with no mandate for change.

That’s the price for conducting one of the most negative campaigns in American history. It’s not that Biden was nasty – though calling the president a “racist” and a “clown” at the first debate was downright Trumpian. It’s that he ran as the Candidate of Not. He was not Trump. He was not a radical leftist. He was not against fracking, not against the police, not a supporter of antifa – except when he was, which took us into the realm of the double negative campaign.

He pursued that strategy while not really running for office, hunkering down in his Delaware basement. This helps explain a recent Morning Consult poll that found that 44% of his supporters said they were chiefly voting against Trump.

It also illuminates Biden’s surprising lack of coattails, as Democrats lost House seats and Republicans held their own in legislative races as an expected blue wave turned a reddish purple.

Campaigning as the Candidate of Not will make it hard to govern a third term of Yes We Can! The question that has dogged Biden throughout his 47-year career – what, if anything, does the guy stand for? – remains.

Trump Team to File Lawsuit: 40,000 People Voted Twice in Nevada By Jack Phillips

https://www.theepochtimes.com/trump-team-claims-40000-people-voted-twice-in-

A lawyer for President Donald Trump’s campaign said the team is preparing to file a lawsuit soon alleging that 40,000 people voted twice in Nevada, which, if true, could potentially erase Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden’s lead.

Trump attorney Jesse R. Binnall, speaking to Fox Business on Dec. 2, said that they found evidence of “real voter fraud” including “thousands and thousands of instances” in Nevada that will be submitted to a court in the Silver State.

“We have instances, for instance, of 40,000-plus people who have voted twice in the election,” Binnall said.

He didn’t provide a source for his claim, such as an affidavit or a whistleblower, but later said lawyers will present evidence to the court. It isn’t clear where the bulk of the alleged fraudulent ballots were cast in the state.

Binnall, who helped defend retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, also said that some people who were recorded as having voted via mail never received ballots and told Trump’s team that they didn’t vote.

Nevada Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske’s office didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. Cegavske has released few public statements since the Nov. 3 election.

Several weeks ago, in response to allegations of fraud, Clark County Registrar of Voters Joe Gloria’s office told The Associated Press that the Trump campaign’s “complaints … misstate and misrepresent evidence” and claimed they “parrot erroneous allegations made by partisans without firsthand knowledge of the facts.”
