Title: Who Won the Election?    Michael Charles Master

Who won the election?

Did you watch the election returns on Tuesday night?  Did you stay up all night?  At about midnight on the east coast, Trump led in all the battleground states by large margins.  The betting odds were more than 75% for Trump to win.  Then for some unexplainable reason, Wisc, Mich, Pa, NC, and NV all stopped counting votes simultaneously… in unison…. took a “pause” … at around 1 AM.    None of those states  counted any additional votes for the next 3 hours.  So what did they  do for those 3 hours?

Let me point out a couple of things:

1.  All of those 5 states have Democrat governors.

2.  Suddenly during the 3 hour shut down, in the dead of night when most people were sleeping, all those states found enough votes for Biden to catch Trump.  5 for 5.  At midnight in Michigan, Trump was ahead by 5% (400 thousand votes) with 80% of the votes already counted.  When the next 10% of votes of about 400,000 were counted from Wayne County (Detroit), then suddenly Biden caught Trump with 90% of the votes in.  Biden made up 5% with 10% of the total vote.  That means that all the votes (close to 100%) from Wayne went to Biden.  That also means that practically all registered voters voted in Wayne County.   Does anyone believe any of that is possible?  The same thing happened in Madison, Wis, In Raleigh, NC, in Las Vegas, NV, and could be happening in Phil, Pa by Friday.  So why did all those Democrat stronghold cities take a “pause” to report their votes?

3.  Not one pundit questioned why  a shut down in counting votes happened in all those states simultaneously.  Not one. Not even on FOX.  Not one questioned how almost all of the newly counted votes in those battleground states went to Biden.   Only NewsMax pointed out the coincidence of it happening in those 5 states with Democrat governors with Trump ahead before the “pauses.”

*ELECTION FRAUD UPDATE*

James O’Keefe on Wednesday said Project Veritas will be releasing a bombshell whistleblower story in Michigan.

“Thousands of tips have flooded into our inbox over the last 24 hours and we have teams in place following up with them accordingly,” O’Keefe said.

Justice Samuel Alito, Prophet

https://www.nysun.com/editorials/justice-samuel-alito-prophet/91326/

Is it but coincidence, we wonder, that Samuel Alito is the Justice who led the dissenters against the decision of the Supreme Court last week to take a powder on Pennsylvania? That is, could it be merely coincidence that the justice who seems to grasp the possibility of malfeasance in the swamp of Pennsylvania is the only justice to have served as United States attorney for the District of New Jersey (and rode the Third Circuit, based at Philadelphia)? Or is Justice Alito just naturally savvier?

What prompts these questions is President Trump’s motion at the Supreme Court today to join the legal fray over the vote in Pennsylvania. He is picking up on Justice Alito’s statement last week in Republican Party of Pennsylvania v. Kathy Boockvar, secretary of state of Pennsylvania. The GOP was trying to get the Nine to address, before the election, Republican concern over the handling of the vote in the Quaker State.

The court declined, for the moment. Justice Alito, joined by Justices Thomas and Gorsuch, issued a remarkable statement. The Court, Justice Alito wrote in what has turned out to be an understatement, “has needlessly created conditions that could lead to serious post-election problems.” Given what’s come into view in the past twenty-four hours, it looks as if Justice Alito has the gift of pre-vision.

Justice Alito, in any event, goes on to note that the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania has “issued a decree that squarely alters an important statutory provision enacted by the Pennsylvania Legislature pursuant to its authority under the Constitution of the United States to make rules governing the conduct of elections for federal office.” He cited the law called Act 77, passed last year.

Ballot Box USA Here we go again. By Bruce Bawer

In the presidential election of 2016, everything worked – miraculously, but just barely. The most unlikely of candidates, with no political experience, with no massive team of consultants, pollsters, and speechwriters, and with modest funding, won out in the Republican primaries over a chorus line of high-profile senators and governors, including the party establishment’s own favorite, a politician from Central Casting whose father and brother were both ex-presidents and who had a massive war chest. After slaying these dragons, that unlikeliest of candidates, thanks to the power of middle America in the Electoral College, triumphed over his Democratic opponent, whose husband had been president and who enjoyed the support of virtually everyone in America’s cultural, political, academic, and media elites – all of whom took it for granted that she would glide smoothly into office, becoming the first woman president. And what, after eight years of its first black president, could America possibly want or need, other than its first woman president?

This plan by America’s self-regarding elites to defeat the most unlikely of candidates was foiled by the most unexpected of factors: namely, the wisdom of the so-called ordinary, hard-working, law-abiding voter. Trump emerged victorious from the maze, the obstacle course, the Minotaurian labyrinth of presidential politics solely because enough of the right people in enough of the right states sensed that he really was the right man for the job. They respected his résumé. They liked the cut of his jib. They responded to what he said. They somehow sensed that this one might actually keep his promises. And they were proved right, and then some: after he won, he worked harder than any president before him, kept more promises than any president before him, and demonstrated over and over again that his vaunted genius for running a business and making a deal was no hype. His success on so many fronts underscored the incompetence of all these career politicians with blue-chip reputations. He blew them out of the water, proving that a first-class businessman who really cares about the well-being of Americans can outdo any number of self-seeking Washington hacks.

Mr. Trump Goes to Washington Carol Innone

After years of being misled by the disconnected-from-history visions of both the Left and Right, we finally have someone in the lead who loves America and her ideals.

I have been favorably disposed toward “The Donald” ever since he restored the ice skating rink in Central Park back in the 1980s, a quintessential New York spot that I had enjoyed when I was younger. The rink was out of commission for years and the city never seemed able to address it despite spending plenty of money. Trump had it fixed and working in a matter of months, ahead of schedule and well under budget.

Clearly a man of action who says what he’ll do and does what he says, Trump was a mover and shaker in a bureaucratically sluggish city. He is a man who keeps his promises, but even more, and this thought has grown with me through his presidency, he is someone who wants people to be happy, to enjoy life, to savor what they have, and to look forward to more.

But I started seeing him as a potential leader when I read an interview in which he disagreed with the Republican view of Social Security. He explained that people have come to rely on these programs, and it seemed wrong to be always talking about cutting them.

I was impressed. Talking about how to cut them is all Republicans seemed able to offer on this count. It was one of the historic standoffs between the parties, though not always true to the letter—Democrats want them regardless of cost, Republicans want to cut or privatize them. Trump seemed to be thinking differently, looking for ways to deal with the problem that don’t include alarming people and almost blaming them for straining the public purse. He was a very wealthy man who cared about average people and had a granular feel for their lives. This was a glimpse of how he would think out of the box on other matters as well, looking for what was actually workable instead of being pinned to dogma.

The Democrats’ Grand Delusion Joe Biden is wrong as usual. Democrats do not choose truth over lies or fact over fiction. They fool only themselves. Julie Kelly

The Steele dossier, an infamous series of memos that alleged Donald Trump’s presidential campaign colluded with the Russians to rig the 2016 election, is the single most influential piece of fabricated political propaganda in American history.

The document is so bad that even the author has attempted to distance himself from its shoddy contents; Christopher Steele, despite being portrayed by the news media as a reliable former British spy, was in fact an untrustworthy partisan operative paid by the Democrats to concoct bogus claims against Donald Trump.

Nothing in the Steele dossier—from outlandish stories about peeing Muscovite prostitutes to secret trips to Prague—is true. Further, numerous investigations have concluded that no, the Trump campaign was not in cahoots with the Kremlin to defeat Hillary Clinton. As it turns out, Steele, not Donald Trump nor anyone in his orbit, was the guy tied to Vladimir Putin’s pals.

But none of these facts stops the overwhelming majority of Democrats from believing the exact opposite. According to an April 2020 poll, 77 percent of Democrats still think the dossier is legitimate and not mere campaign opposition research, which it was. 

By extension, Democrats still believe that Team Trump worked with the Kremlin to help elect the president of the United States in 2016. Keep in mind, the survey was taken one year after Robert Mueller issued his final report and testified to Congress that his two-year, multimillion-dollar probe into Trump-Russia collusion came up empty.

Vote No on 1984 By Victor Davis Hanson

https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/11/vote-no-on-1984/

Thought crimes, ministries of truth, and memory holes belong in Oceania, not America.

If we were to wake up in 2022, would we be more likely to see a 15-person Supreme Court, a Senate without a filibuster, a nation without an Electoral College, and an effort to admit two more states and with them four more senators if Joe Biden or Donald Trump were president?

Why would we blow up a nine-justice Supreme Court after 151 years, or a 233-year Electoral College, or a 170-year Senate filibuster, or a 60-year 50-state Union? And why now? What is the theme, the argument, the momentum for shattering these traditions, other than that progressives see them as ancient impediments to their radical ends?

Who, if president, would alter our ways of governance, and who would resist? Why are the proponents of these radical changes to the way we are governed so fanatical and yet so quiet about their intentions?

We know that about 99.7–99.8 percent of those under 60 who are infected with the coronavirus survive the disease. We know that the more we lock down everyone under quarantines, the more we risk scattering our resources to cover everyone — many of whom do not need such investment — only to short the vulnerable and elderly who most certainly do need the protection.

In which administration — Biden’s or Trump’s — will more Americans die or become ill under quarantine from increased substance, familial, and spousal abuse, from missed medical procedures and surgeries, from depression and suicide, and from the loss of their livelihoods than will die from the virus itself?

Court File Shows Joe Biden Listed as Possible Witness With Son in Fraud Case By Paul Sperry

https://www.realclearinvestigations.com/articles/2020/11/02/court_file_shows_joe_biden_a_witness_with_son_in_fraud_case_125860.html

A federal judge named Joe Biden as a possible “witness” along with his son Hunter in a criminal fraud case last year that ended in the convictions of two of Hunter’s business partners, according to little-noticed court documents. The Democratic presidential candidate’s appearance on a witness list casts new doubt on his claims he knew nothing about his son’s shady business dealings.

Joe and Hunter Biden: The father’s name appears above his son’s on a list of dozens of individuals who might pose a conflict for prospective jurors.

Hunter Biden blamed one of his convicted partners — Devon Archer — for his father’s name appearing on a list of potential witnesses in a juror questionnaire in the case, which was filed Jan. 11, 2019.

In a 47-minute recording recovered from his abandoned laptop, an agitated Hunter can be heard grousing about calls he’s been getting from his father, who apparently was upset with the developments as he prepared to launch his campaign for the White House.

The Trump Revolution The 21st-century version of Reagan’s “Time for Choosing.” by Jeffrey Lord

https://spectator.org/the-trump-revolution-3/

It was October 27, 1964. Ronald Reagan, then an actor and private citizen, had been asked to give a nationally televised addressed for the Republican presidential nominee, Arizona Sen. Barry Goldwater. Reagan did so, the title of his speech being “A Time for Choosing.”

In his speech Reagan said the following:

This is the issue of this election: Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capitol can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves.

You and I are told increasingly we have to choose between a left or right. Well I’d like to suggest there is no such thing as a left or right. There’s only an up or down — [up to] man’s old-aged dream, the ultimate in individual freedom consistent with law and order, or down to the ant heap of totalitarianism. And regardless of their sincerity, their humanitarian motives, those who would trade our freedom for security have embarked on this downward course.

Reagan was right. And that speech skyrocketed him two years later into the governorship of California and, in 1980 and 1984, to two landslide presidential victories. And in those eight years Reagan was relentless in driving home that message of freedom as he, against all odds and a chorus of naysayers, won the Cold War by defeating the “Evil Empire” (as he correctly called it) of the Communist Soviet Union. The latter eventually collapsing onto, again as Reagan said, “the ash heap of history.”

As America stands on the threshold of the 2020 election, Reagan’s “Time for Choosing” speech is precisely relevant today. The principles and concerns he expressed are in fact at the very core of what can easily be termed the Trump Revolution.
