RUTHFULLY YOURS

https://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/2020/11/fighting-words-david-horowitz/

By now it should be obvious – even to conservatives – that we are in a war. It is a conflict that began nearly fifty years ago when the street revolutionaries of the Sixties joined the Democrat Party. Their immediate goal was to help the Communist enemy win the war in Vietnam, but they stayed to expand their influence in the Democrat Party and create the radical force that confronts us today. The war that today’s Democrats are engaged in reflects the values and methods of those radicals. It is a war against us – against individual freedom, against America’s constitutional order, and against the capitalist engine of our prosperity.

Democrat radicals know what they want and where they are going. As a result, they are tactically and organizationally years ahead of patriotic Americans who are only beginning to realize they are in a war. The Democrats’ plan to steal the 2020 election was hatched many years ago when Democrats launched their first attacks on Voter I.D.s, and then every effort to secure the integrity of the electoral system. Those attacks metastasized into an all-out assault on Election Day itself with early- and late-voting grace periods, and a flood of 92 million mail-in ballots, hundreds of thousands of which were delivered in the middle of the night to be counted behind the backs of Republican observers after Election Day had passed.

The result of these efforts is that Election Day no longer really exists as a day when the votes are cast and counted. This is a fact that offers generous opportunities for the election saboteurs to do their work. Those saboteurs’ opportunities were greatly enhanced this year with the installation in battle ground states of voting machines specifically designed to calculate how many votes were required to steal an election and then to switch ballots already cast and deliver them to the chosen party. Mail-in ballots were indispensable to the realization of this plan.

On Sunday, President Donald Trump’s lawyers former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani and Jenna Ellis released a statement distancing themselves from Sidney Powell, the lawyer who represents former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn. Powell had promoted a conspiracy theory involving voter machines switching votes from Trump to Joe Biden. She appears to have grown more unhinged, recently attacking Gov. Brian Kemp (R-Ga.) and even Sen. Kelly Loeffler (R-Ga.), who faces a runoff election against Raphael Warnock.

“Sidney Powell is practicing law on her own,” Giuliani and Ellis insisted. “She is not a member of the Trump Legal Team. She is also not a lawyer for the President in his personal capacity.”

Earlier this week, however, Powell appeared with Giuliani and Ellis in a Trump legal team press conference. The president listed her as part of his legal team.

Yet Powell appears to have taken the announcement in stride. “I agree with the statement today. I will represent #WeThePeople and seek the Truth,” she said in a statement. “I intend to expose all the fraud and let the chips fall where they may. We will not allow the foundations of this great Republic to be destroyed by abject fraud or our votes for President Trump and other Republicans to be stolen by foreign interests or anyone else.”

Powell had made headlines in recent weeks for promoting a vibrant conspiracy theory about Dominion Voting Systems. She claimed that Dominion machines were switching votes from Trump to Biden, based on Smartmatic software somehow engineered by Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez to switch election results. Powell promised she would “release the kraken” of evidence, but refused to present evidence when reporters asked.

It should be obvious to all Americans that the left orchestrated and pulled off the theft of the 2020 election.  The plan had most likely been in the works for years, which is why Nancy Pelosi was so sure that “even if Trump won on election night, Biden would be inaugurated in January.”  The fix has been in for a long time which is why Biden could claim to have” built the most extensive vote fraud organization in history.”  That was probably a slip of his tangled tongue, but he spoke the truth.  

Over the past two weeks we have all heard a great deal about the many ways the Democrats cheated in the mostly corrupt Democrat-run cities like Philadelphia and Detroit, Pittsburgh, too and certain counties in Wisconsin and Georgia. How did they do it?  Let us count the ways.  

Some of the Democrat bosses took it upon themselves to change the rules without going to their legislatures.  They dropped the signature matching requirement on all absentee ballots.  Millions of votes were cast via false absentee ballots so that when the people whose names they had used came to vote; they were told they could not as they had already voted when they had not.  They were then given provisional ballots which are often not counted at all.  

Millions of dead people voted.  And most deceitful of all was the vote machines built and designed by Dominion (now based in Toronto) which use software designed in Venezuela to ensure the re-election of Hugo Chavez over and over, and then Maduro, both communists of the worst order.   The machines can be programmed to flip votes by any percentage chosen by those in charge of the cheating.  And flip them they did, by the tens of thousands.

As most people know by now, President Trump was way ahead in each of the states in question on election night, so much so that they simply stopped counting.  Their algorithm had been based on an underestimation of the number of votes Trump would receive so they had to regroup.  They quickly and illegally began creating fake votes with ballots marked only for Biden, no down-ballot candidates marked.  Whistleblowers have come forward to tell of operatives running those ballots through the machines three times!  Republican observers were forced out of counting centers, corralled where they could not possibly observe the ballot counting.  This happened in all of the states that now stand accused of vote fraud.

You already know that Trump’s legal team announced that Sidney Powell is not a team member. The brief statement leaves unanswered the most important question: “Why?” Absent solid information, speculation leads us either to “This is the beginning of the end” or “This is all part of the plan” – and I’m leaning to the latter.

Events happened with head-spinning speed. On Thursday, Trump’s legal team held a press conference. Rudy Giuliani talked about traditional voter fraud (cemetery voters, faked ballots, etc.); Sidney Powell talked about corrupt, or corruptible, election software, a familiar topic to the State of Texas NPR, and MSNBC; and Jenna Ellis reminded the press that the conference was not an evidentiary hearing but was, instead, an opening statement.

For over a week, Powell has been making the media rounds, asserting that the system used in several states — Dominion Software, running on Smartmatic machines – originated in Venezuela when Hugo Chavez wanted a system that could cleanly swing elections his way. She spoke about votes being counted abroad, software changes, and vote manipulation over the internet.

While her numbers were breathtaking (Trump “had at least 80 million votes”), Powell’s stated facts tracked available information: Smartmatic came out of Venezuela; in 2007, Smartmatic announced that it was selling its Sequoia Voting Systems to Dominion; the chairman of Smartmatic’s board is a George Soros crony; the system is easily hackable; Georgia’s system was vulnerable; and the data coming out of the swing states shows anomalies that cannot occur naturally. (You can see all the known evidence here.) These facts made Powell’s contentions sound credible.

There are a series of battles to come in January 2021, in 2022, and in 2024 that will be definitive, if the chaos of 2020 does not become even more chaotic.

America will weather its current hysterias. 

But the tensions and furor are reminiscent of the last generations of the Roman Republic. In its last century, Romans began to adjudicate politics by obsequious partisan town criers (their version of our media), mass demonstrations, and freelance street gangs. Looters, arsonists, and demonstrators did pretty much as they pleased in the streets of Rome without fear of legal consequences.

In our time, the media has now vanished—kaput, no more, ended. 

Within a few hours, it goes from a Ministry-of-Truth love session with Joe Biden to a steaming verbal assault on the president’s press secretary—without a shred of awareness how ridiculous they appear in their passive-aggressive schizophrenia. The only constant is that reporters unapologetically seem to jettison their principles and professionalism to calibrate what they say and do by whose politics they support. They would prefer to be entirely discredited under a Biden presidency than be real journalists during a Trump Administration.

The current unspoken subtext of the media-progressive party fusion line is the following: It would be a felonious crime should conservatives now dare to disrupt a transition in the manner that the Left did in 2016. They should not dare to sue about voting machines in key states as did the Clinton surrogate Jill Stein. They would never attempt, in 2016 fashion, to sabotage the Electoral College voting by appealing to constitutionally appointed electors, or surveille top Biden campaign and transition officials and coordinate such monitoring inside the Trump Oval Office.

Americans deserve to know whether the most consequential state in the most consequential presidential race in modern history handled everything on the up-and-up. Right now, it seems they didn’t.

An October 29 story in the Philadelphia Inquirer reported that election officials in several Pennsylvania counties were debating how to alert voters that their mail-in ballot might not meet state requirements. “Officials across Pennsylvania are trying to help voters fix mail ballots that would otherwise be disqualified because of technical mistakes in completing them, creating a patchwork of policies around how—or even whether—people are notified and given a chance to make their votes count,” reporter Jonathan Lai explained. Some jurisdictions were contacting voters directly; one county, according to the paper, sent the “flawed” ballots back to the voters.

But there was a much bigger story behind Lai’s article: Election officials clearly violated the law by inspecting mail-in ballots before November 3. According to Pennsylvania’s election rules, county election boards were required to “safely keep the ballots in sealed or locked containers” until pre-canvassing legally began at 7 a.m. on Election Day.

Not only were an unknown number of mail-in ballots mishandled by election workers days before the official start date, election observers were not present at the premature inspections. 

The state’s election code clearly states: 

[T]he county board of elections shall meet no earlier than seven o’clock A.M. on election day to pre-canvass all ballots received prior to the meeting. A county board of elections shall provide at least forty-eight hours’ notice of a pre-canvass meeting by publicly posting a notice of a pre-canvass meeting on its publicly accessible Internet website. One authorized representative of each candidate in an election and one representative from each political party shall be permitted to remain in the room in which the absentee ballots and mail-in ballots are pre-canvassed.

Roughy 2.5 million Pennsylanians voted absentee in the general election; nearly 2 million of those votes were cast for Joe Biden. One analysis found rejection rates for  Pennsylvania mail-in ballots was 30 times lower this year compared to 2016.

Back in 2016, when broadcaster Lars Larson attempted to find out whether one Arcan Cetin was a citizen of the United States, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency told him, essentially, “Sorry, our obligation is to protect this migrant’s privacy.”  

“Who,” you ask, “is Mr. Cetin”? Cetin is a contributor to the phenomenon I term “murder-by-Muslim-immigrant.” He murdered five innocents, north of Seattle. 

Arcan Cetin voted, reports Larson. But nobody at ICE was willing to tell a good citizen like our broadcaster if Cetin voted legally or not. 

As it turned out, a sigh of relief was in order. The stellar Cetin, who, like most Muslim immigrants, voted Democrat, violated the Sixth Commandment five times, but, thank God, did not appear to have violated the commandment against voter fraud. Rumor has it that the murderer had been awarded citizenship, although it’s impossible to ascertain. 

The point is you can rest assured voter fraud is as rampant in the United States as it is in any banana republic—and not only because Americans are barred from checking whether a Muslim murderer is a fellow citizen. But, rather, because the progressive, globalist Left has fought down-and-dirty to bar any proof of citizenship at the time of voting. 

Yes, the law requires, in my state, as in most of these United States, that you be a citizen, as well as a resident of the state in which you’re voting. But you don’t have to provide proof of citizenship when voting.

““Conrad Black is a fool,” wrote John Joyce in a comment on the Biden piece. “An erudite and exceptionally well spoken fool. But still a fool.”

“There is a pathway to significant success for a President Biden,” writes Conrad Black at the outset of “Biden’s Shot at Success,” in the November 20 American Greatness, with a photo of Biden fronting an “Office of the President Elect” sign. Black closes out with the prospect of an “important and successful” president Biden. What comes in between will be of great interest to Americans in general and Trump voters in particular. 

In recent months, Joe Biden has proclaimed his dedication to “truth over facts” and claimed that he was running for the U.S. Senate. Unsure of his location at any given time, Biden tells African Americans they “ain’t black” if they fail to support him. He claimed he went to Delaware State but didn’t, and so forth. Joe Biden is less accurate than a broken clock, but consider the appraisal by Conrad Black. 

“In his most impressive remark in the presidential debates, Biden said that in policy terms, ‘I am the party.’” Other impressive debate remarks go missing, but Black recalls that Biden “has been on all sides of almost every issue.” No word of Robert Gates’ observation that Biden has been on the “wrong” side  of almost every foreign policy issue for the past four decades.

According to Lord Black, Biden “is not a true believer in the radical leftist program,” which has “absolutely no chance” of being adopted by Congress. And since there is “no practical likelihood” of a second term, Biden will have to work with Congress. Joe Biden “may rank as the least charismatic figure” elected to the White House “but he has his strengths” and is “generally well liked by all those who worked with him in the Senate and the Obama administration and he certainly knows better than any president since Lyndon Johnson how to work out bipartisan legislative compromises.”

https://www.theepochtimes.com/federal-judge-dismisses-trump-campaign-lawsuit-to-delay-certification-in-pennsylvania-campaign-to-appeal_3588740.html

A federal judge has dismissed a Trump campaign lawsuit seeking to delay result certification in Pennsylvania over allegations that the state’s election process violated the Constitution because of differing standards of verification and transparency for mail-in versus in-person voters.

Judge Matthew W. Brann in his opinion released Saturday night described the case as “strained legal arguments without merit and speculative accusations.”

Brann, a nominee of former President Barack Obama, said that given the case was asking him to effectively dismiss votes, the Trump campaign should have come to court “armed with compelling legal arguments and factual proof of rampant corruption.”

He said because the case was “haphazardly stitched together,” he had “no authority to take away the right to vote of even a single person.”

The judge added, “Among the grounds that could justify a denial of leave to amend are undue delay, bad faith, dilatory motive, prejudice, and futility.”

Trump’s lawyer and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani in a response to the dismissal thanked Brann for his quick decision in the case, while expressing disappointment that the Trump campaign’s lawyers had not been granted an opportunity to present their evidence at a hearing.

Giuliani said that Brann’s decision would now “help us in our strategy to get expeditiously to the U.S. Supreme Court.”

https://amgreatness.com/2020/11/20/dominion-voting-systems-lawyers-up-abruptly-backs-out-of-pa-state-house-fact-finding-hearing/

Dominion Voting Systems Thursday night abruptly backed out of attending a fact-finding hearing that was set for Friday morning with the Pennsylvania House State Government Committee.

At a press conference Friday morning, State Govt Committee Chair Seth Grove said the 1.3. million Pennsylvanians who used Dominion’s voting machines have been “hung out to dry and slapped in their faces.”

Pennsylvania lawmakers had scheduled the hearing with the voting machine manufacturer “to help identify and correct any irregularities in the election process,” according to the House Republican Caucus.

“It is vitally important voters have faith in the machines they use to cast their ballots. On the heels of Gov. Tom Wolf unilaterally decertifying every voting machine in the Commonwealth, we need to know whether these new machines met expectations, whether they are reliable and whether they are not subject to interference,” said Rep. Grove (R-York).

Dominion had initially agreed to attend the hearing, before it “abruptly canceled,”  Grove said.

“I was impressed at what appeared to be the willingness that Dominion Voting Systems to address accusations and it would have put 1.3. million Pennsylvanians who used their machines at ease—including myself, thinking that Dominion was willing to publicly back up their product which PA taxpayers invested millions to purchase” he noted during the presser. “Unfortunately, last evening, Dominion Voting Systems lawyered up, and backed out of their commitment to the people of Pennsylvania to provide their input in a public format.”
