Liz Peek: Liberal lies have created this moment – Trump can do this to secure his legacy Democrats and their media partners denigrated the president from day one

https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/liberal-lies-fuel-distrust-elections-trump-liz-peek

According to a new Rasmussen Poll, 61% of Republicans think it is “very likely” that Democrats stole the election.  

Really, why wouldn’t they? 

For four years, Democrats and their handmaidens in the liberal media have lied their heads off, spinning false narratives aimed at undermining President Trump. Why would Trump supporters trust them now? 

The Russian collusion story, which the president rightfully deemed a “hoax,” was the granddaddy of misinformation campaigns. It led to the appointment of a special counsel and an exhausting investigation that ensnared and ruined the lives of entirely blameless people like retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn and his son.  

As Rep. Gary Palmer, R-Ala., said, after the release of transcripts showed that Obama officials and Democrats knew they were peddling falsehoods, “It is now clear that Adam Schiff lied to his colleagues, that he lied to the media, and that he lied to the American public.” Congressman Schiff, D-Calif., wasn’t alone. 

Democrats in the House impeached President Trump for pushing officials in Ukraine to investigate Joe Biden’s activities while he was our government’s point person in that nation. Little did we know how appropriate Trump’s request was. In recent weeks it has become clear that Joe’s son Hunter Biden did indeed participate in questionable activities in that corrupt country and that his father may have protected his interests.  

Appeals Court Grants Expedited Review of Trump Campaign’s Pennsylvania Lawsuit By Jack Phillips

President Donald Trump’s campaign on Monday secured a legal win after the U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals granted an expedited review of their appeal from a Pennsylvania court, according to Trump campaign lawyer Jenna Ellis.

According to the order, Trump’s “motion for emergency expedited review is granted at the direction of the court.”

Their brief now needs to be filed by 4 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 23. “The court will advise if oral argument desired,” it said.

Pennsylvania’s 67 counties are scheduled to certify their election results by the end of Monday before sending them to state election officials.

Over the past weekend, Judge Matthew Brann dismissed the campaign’s lawsuit, which had sought to throw out hundreds of thousands of votes in Pennsylvania, saying that election officials in Philadelphia and other Democratic-leaning counties violated the equal protections clause under the U.S. Constitution. They alleged that those counties allowed voters to “cure” mail-in ballots that had issues, while GOP-leaning counties followed the law and didn’t alert voters about potential issues with ballots.

Brann, an appointee of former President Barack Obama, ruled Saturday that he “has no authority to take away the right to vote of even a single person, let alone millions of citizens.” The order allowed Pennsylvania to move forward with certifying the results of the Nov. 3 election. Current data shows that Democrat Joe Biden is ahead of Trump by around 80,000 votes in the Keystone State.

A dozen compelling allegations of voting irregularities in 2020 election From ejected ballot observers to fraudulently backdated mail-in votes, the evidence of irregularities is growing nationwide. By John Solomon

While many Democrats and their allies in the traditional media argue there is no evidence of systemic voting irregularities in the Nov. 3 election, a mountain of evidence has been amassed in private lawsuits alleging there was, in fact, significant and widespread voting misconduct.

The question for the courts is whether the irregularities were widespread enough to impact the outcome or erase Joe Biden’s lead in at least three of the six battleground states where results are being contested.

And while both President Trump’s campaign and private entities like the Amistad Project are planning to file more lawsuits on Monday, Just the News reviewed the scores of filings and affidavits and declarations in the court cases.

Here are the 12 most compelling pieces of evidence presented to the courts as of Sunday night:

President Trump, Explain to the American People That Survival of the Republic Is at Stake Michael Walsh

https://www.theepochtimes.com/president-trump-explain-to-the-american-people-the-survival-of-the-republic-is-at-stake_3589556.html?utm_source=partner

The republic had been failing for nearly half a century. The great capital city was riven by factions. Graft and corruption were rife. Political opponents were subjected to violence in the streets. Elections were decided by intimidation and bribed electors.

The traditions that held the country together for centuries hung by a thread. Dynasties see-sawed.

Finally, two mighty opposing forces faced each other across a river.

And then Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon.

“Alea iacta est,” he said—the die is cast—and the fate of the Roman Republic was suddenly hanging in the balance.

Karl Marx, the avatar of modern evil, liked to say that history repeats itself, the first time as tragedy, the second time as farce. As another cliché has it, history doesn’t repeat but it sometimes rhymes. But there is nothing farcical about the American political situation at the moment, nor anything particularly lyrical.

President Donald Trump and the forces of real change in contemporary politics are now locked in a death struggle with the Permanent Bipartisan Fusion Party, the unholy alliance of radical Democrats and milquetoast Republicans who have profited mightily from the business-as-usual of Washington practically since Eisenhower left office in 1961.

All Americans who care about the Constitution should wish him well, even if they cannot wish him success.

Political Crisis

Democrats and Media Abandon Democracy Paul Craig Roberts

https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2020/11/23/democrats-and-media-abandon-democracy/

Michigan State Attorney General Dana Nessel has attributes of a Nazi.  She, like Washington Post columnist Randall D. Eliason, wants to falsely prosecute attorneys who represent those making challenges to the election. She also wants to prosecute election officials who refuse to certify until irregularities are properly dealt with, and she wants to prosecute Pennsylvania Republican state officials who met with Trump at the White House. In other words, Dana Nessel has proved herself unfit for any public office by her effort to weaponize law for her political agenda.
George Washington Law School professor Jonathan Turley discusses Dana Nessel’s attempt to coerce Republicans by threatening them with indictments. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/michigan-ag-calls-criminal-charges-against-gop-certifiers-who-wont-fall-line?utm_campaign=&utm_content=Zerohedge%3A+The+Durden+Dispatch&utm_medium=email&utm_source=zh_newsletter 
Matthew Brann, a federal district judge appointed by Obama, refused to accept Giuliani’s lawsuit against the Pennsylvania election fraud.  The judge was not content to deny the case a hearing.  He used the occasion for a propaganda attack, demonizing the lawsuit, based on affidavits from witnesses who signed under penalty of perjury, as “speculative accusations unsupported by evidence.”  The judge knows full well that affidavits are always evidence.  So we now have an Obama federal judge who for political purpose pretends to be thoroughly ignorant of law and not know that affidavits signed under penalty of perjury are always evidence.
 The presstitutes are not interested in Brann’s extraordinary pretense of utter ignorance, which if true would disqualify him as a judge.  Instead they are using his ignorant pronouncement as “proof” that the legal team has no evidence. https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/pennsylvania-judge-throws-out-trump-campaign-lawsuit?utm_campaign=&utm_content=Zerohedge%3A+The+Durden+Dispatch&utm_medium=email&utm_source=zh_newsletter 
Democrats, who share Dana Nessel’s determination to weaponize law and destroy democracy, are pushing Biden, if he becomes president, to prosecute Trump and his supporters.  Rep. Bill Pascrell, Democrat from New Jersey, declared that “Donald Trump along with his worst enablers must be tried for their crimes against our nation and Constitution.”  If this sounds like a South American banana republic, that is what the Democrats are turning us into. https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/526978-biden-faces-politically-thorny-decision-on-trump-prosecutions 

5 More Ways Joe Biden Magically Outperformed Election Norms J.B. Shurk

https://thefederalist.com/2020/11/23/5-more-ways-joe-biden-magically-outperformed-election-norms/

In all the excitement among objective journalists for Joe Biden’s declared victory, reporters are missing how extraordinary the Democrat’s performance was in the 2020 election. It’s not just that the former vice president is on track to become the oldest president in American history, it’s what he managed to accomplish at the polls this year.

Candidate Joe Biden was so effective at animating voters in 2020 that he received a record number of votes, more than 15 million more than Barack Obama received in his re-election of 2012. Amazingly, he managed to secure victory while also losing in almost every bellwether county across the country. No presidential candidate has been capable of such electoral jujitsu until now.

While Biden underperformed Hillary Clinton’s 2016 totals in every urban county in the United States, he outperformed her in the metropolitan areas of Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. Even more surprising, the former VP put up a record haul of votes, despite Democrats’ general failures in local House and state legislative seats across the nation.

He accomplished all this after receiving a record low share of the primary vote compared to his Republican opponent heading into the general election.

Sen. Cramer: Trump Campaign Legal Efforts ‘Appropriate,’ Can’t Ignore Signed Affidavits By Zachary Stieber

https://www.theepochtimes.com/sen-cramer-trump-campaign-legal-efforts-appropriate-cant-ignore-signed-affidavits_3589705.html

The election-related litigation launched by President Donald Trump’s campaign is not an attack on democracy but appropriately following processes outlined in the Constitution, Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) said Sunday.

“These are processes that are in our Constitution, in our laws, and they’re not just appropriate, but they’re really an obligation, frankly, to the millions of Americans that President Trump is a reflection of. I know, you know, a lot of people like to think that we’re the reflection of him. He’s the reflection of millions of people that want to see him fight this to the end,” Cramer said during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

“I think everyone ought to calm down a little bit. I don’t see this as an attack on our democracy. I mean, we spent four years listening to news shows and liberals discrediting, trying to discredit the Trump administration to the point of spying on him by the last administration. Forty million dollars spent on an independent counsel that started with no evidence and ended proving that there was no evidence. And then, of course, this crazy impeachment. So, I think what we’re experiencing now, everyone ought to just relax and let it play out in the legal way. We’ll be just fine,” he added.

Media outlets and some lawmakers, primarily Democrats, have tried pressuring Trump into conceding to challenger Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, even as Trump’s campaign and others battle in court to contest results in key battleground states, asserting Trump actually won some states where Biden is ahead.

The Epoch Times is not declaring a winner in the presidential race until the litigation plays out.

Trump’s campaign has alleged election fraud. Some of the lawsuits include affidavits from poll workers and observers attesting under the penalty of perjury to witnessed fraud.

Fighting Words It’s a war. David Horowitz

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.

Why Did Donald Trump Cut Sidney Powell From His Legal Team? By Tyler O’Neil

https://pjmedia.com/election/tyler-o-neil/2020/11/22/trump-lawyers-distance-themselves-from-sidney-powell-after-she-attacked-kemp-and-loeffler-n1166943

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.

Are there no incorruptible Democrats? By Patricia McCarthy

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/11/are_there_no_incorruptible_democrats.html

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.
