RUTHFULLY YOURS

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2020/12/14/donald_the_dragon_slayer_144834.html

The legacy of President Donald Trump will be measured against the diminishment of his enemies.

First — even before he was nominated — he broke the corrupt, elitist Republican Party. If you don’t think that is true, just ask yourself when was the last time you took Jeb Bush seriously.

Next, he maimed the corrupt, elitist Democratic Party, which was so fearful that it resorted to dirty tricks that would have made Dick Nixon blush. Crooked Hillary and her gang of globalists invented a plot to “vilify” Trump by linking him to a fake scandal “claiming interference by Russian security services.” Don’t take my word for it. That comes from a contemporaneous memo by Obama-era CIA Director John Brennan, and we don’t have to speculate about whether the plot came to fruition because the nation wasted more than two years and $32 million on a special-counsel probe to look into the fake allegations against Trump. Some taxpayers group really ought to send Hillary a bill.

After he took office, Trump was able to dismantle a large portion of the globalist infrastructure that had strangled much of U.S. sovereignty, like a political version of the Upside Down from “Stranger Things.” Paris climate accords? Buh-bye. Iran nuclear deal? Unh-uh. NATO allies skating on an IOU? Not gonna happen. Porous border? Build a wall. Mideast wars? Let’s try Mideast peace instead. Unfair trade deals? Return to sender. Chinese threats? Take this virus and shove it!

But Trump’s greatest victory, his most sublime contribution to American history, is his willingness to stand in the breach and fight mano a mano with the Fake News Media. He exposed the mainstream media as a fully owned subsidiary of the Democratic Party, and by never backing down when they lied about him, his family and his policies, he forced celebrity journalists into ever-more indefensible positions — until, by the end of his first term, they actually admitted that it was not their job to report the news.

Don’t believe me? Just read what National Public Radio passed off as an explanation in October about its refusal to cover a brewing political scandal when Joe Biden’s son Hunter was linked to a laptop containing potentially incriminating emails, intimate photos and more.

“We don’t want to waste our time on stories that are not really stories, and we don’t want to waste the listeners’ and readers’ time on stories that are just pure distractions.”

“For reasons that I have rehearsed repeatedly, I believe that the 2020 presidential election was rigged. The rigging was successful. Because of it, Joe Biden appeared to have received more votes than Donald Trump. Those extra Biden votes, I believe, are illegitimate. Maybe ‘irregularities’ (a nice six-syllable word for ‘fraudulent’) with the Dominion voting machines accounted for some of the Biden ballots. But most were from the tsunami of mail-in ballots, all 90 to 100 million of them. This was no squalid two-bit voter fraud. It was a planned campaign. ”

‘Disappointed but not surprised.’ I suppose that describes my initial feeling about the summary dismissal by the Supreme Court last night of the ‘audacious’ (the New York Times) lawsuit brought by the state of Texas against Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia and Michigan on December 8. In essence, Texas argued that those four states had trespassed on the civil rights of citizens by favoring some voters over others in violation of the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

The amusing and perspicacious commentator known as Ace of Spades added a bit of hot sauce in his response to the news of the Court’s ruling. ‘The ultimate Friday Night News Dump,’ he wrote. “The Constitution is repealed; America is no longer a democratic republic.’

It saddens me to say that I believe he may be right about what economists call macro trends across the fruited plain. When Ben Franklin, emerging from the Constitutional Convention 1787, was asked what sort of government he and his colleagues and forged, he famously said ‘A republic, madam, if you can keep it.’

Among the many reasons that it is difficult to keep a democratic republic going is the constant pressure to transform one party into the party of the regime. This indeed was the primary reason that the Founders were suspicious of political parties. They worried that parties lead to what they called ‘faction’ and faction was a standing invitation to corruption. It works like this. A portion of the voting populace is in effect coopted by politicians who promise, and deliver, favors in exchange for votes, which fosters a cozy, if moist and warm, culture of corruption. You scratch my back and I bequeath you the legislative apparatus of the state, till bankruptcy do we part, and maybe not then. This is the origin of the Swamp.

Attorney Sidney Powell is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to immediately intervene in her lawsuits challenging the integrity and outcome of the 2020 elections in four states.

In an announcement on Friday, Powell said she had filed emergency requests to the nation’s top court, asking the justices to order officials in Georgia, Michigan, and Arizona to immediately de-certify their 2020 election results and to prevent the states’ presidential electors from casting votes in the electoral college.

An emergency filing is also anticipated for her Wisconsin case. The filings aim to maintain the status quo in the states in order to give the Supreme Court time to consider the allegations presented in her lawsuits.

“These cases raise constitutional issues and prove massive fraud. Our plaintiffs have standing ‘WeThePeople’ will not allow rigged elections,” she said in a Twitter statement on Friday.

The briefs have indicated that Powell’s legal teams are preparing to file a petition for a writ of certiorari—or a request—asking the high court to review lower courts’ rulings that dismissed her lawsuits in the four states that were dubbed “the kraken.” The lawyers have filed appeals to each states’ respective circuit courts but due to looming deadlines, the teams will file a simultaneous appeal to the top court.

Each state’s presidential electors are expected to meet on Dec. 14 and cast their electoral college vote.

Pennsylvania Sen. Doug Mastriano said Saturday that he’s standing firm with President Donald Trump.

He insisted that the last-minute changes to election rules that happened in Pennsylvania, bypassing the legislative branch, was unconstitutional.

“There’s something gone wrong in Pennsylvania and elsewhere, and it needs to be corrected,” he said during an interview with NTD’s Cindy Drukier.

The Keystone state senator, who has been leading the push for transparency in his home state, said the fight in 2020 for election integrity is to keep the Republic.

“Americans, we’ve been kicked so many times around by the media and by the left,” he said. “And now, Americans say, ‘No, just knock it off. We’re not going to sit down … we’re not going to stand aside.

“We have a Republic and we plan on keeping it,” he said.

Friday night, the Supreme Court’s rejected Texas’s case against the disputed states for “lack of standing.” There are a lot of theories for this decision, but Dick Morris said the unsayable: The Supreme Court was intimidated by the Democrats’ promised court-packing scheme.

The Texas lawsuit went directly to the Supreme Court because it is the only court that can litigate a dispute between two states, and therefore has original jurisdiction for such disputes. Texas’s claim was that the defendant states, by violating constitutional mandates for conducting their elections, injured Texas – which used legal means to vote for Trump – by fraudulently handing the election to Biden.

The Supreme Court, by a 7-2 margin, swiftly rejected the case:

The State of Texas’s motion for leave to file a bill of complaint is denied for lack of standing under Article III of the Constitution. Texas has not demonstrated a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections.

That facile statement is an insult to Trump supporters. “Standing” is not a complicated concept. In Whitmore v. Arkansas (1990) 495 U.S. 149, 155, the Supreme Court explained,

To establish an Art. III case or controversy, a litigant first must clearly demonstrate that he has suffered an “injury in fact.” That injury, we have emphasized repeatedly, must be concrete in both a qualitative and temporal sense. The complainant must allege an injury to himself that is “distinct and palpable,” . . . as opposed to merely “[a]bstract,” . . . and the alleged harm must be actual or imminent, not “conjectural” or “hypothetical.” *** Further, the litigant must satisfy the “causation” and “redressability” prongs of the Art. III minima by showing that the injury “fairly can be traced to the challenged action” and “is likely to be redressed by a favorable decision.”

It’s been nearly six weeks since the election and electoral votes in swing states are in flux. Texas, joined by at least 17 other states, sought to sue Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Georgia for unconstitutional changes to 2020 election Laws. The U.S. Supreme Court, however, ruled that Texas has no standing.

Texas and fellow litigants had a legal precedent from seven weeks ago. On October 26, 2020, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected a bid by a 5 to 3 margin from Wisconsin Democrats “to extend the deadline for counting mail-in ballots received after Election Day.”

Apart from all the squabbles, legal wrangling, and controversy, what makes Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada conducive to election fraud and criminal activity, and less so in Florida, North Carolina, or Ohio? 

Concentrated Population Centers

Examining the population centers of the six states still in question, something unmistakable and rather remarkable emerges. 

Here are the largest populated cities in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania: Philadelphia (1,591,800), Pittsburgh (294,860), Allentown (122,623), Erie (94,619), Reading (88,521), Scranton (77,218), Bethlehem (76,370), Lancaster (59,392), Levittown (51,726), and Harrisburg (49,301). So, in adding up the numbers, Philadelphia’s population outflanks the nine next largest cities combined. In short, the state is top-heavy and by concentrating fraudulent activities in Philadelphia, a political party could swing the state to their candidate.

We are in the season of Miracles, Chanukah, the festival of lights, Festivus, and our Presidential election.  

To the amazing miracles we have all recently observed in a year bereft of many. 

Yes, 2020 will go down as a very “interesting” year, a year of miracles and coincidences. 

First, the miracles of our election, the defining event of our generation.

A few weeks after the election, a vaccine was announced from not one but at least three major pharmaceutical companies. Anthony Fauci and major media had criticized Trump for asserting that a vaccine would be ready by the election. Fauci and the Trump detractors all changed their minds when the pharmaceutical companies announced this … when the coast was clear. 

Those companies compete with the immaculate conception for birthing these vaccines without any help from operation “warp” speed from the Trump administration. 

Yes, it is a miracle. 

In a “Festivus” miracle not seen for generations, Donald Trump received ten million more votes than he did in 2016. Everyone went to sleep on Nov 3 thinking that Trump would win in a landslide but alas, millions of votes appeared late at night out of nowhere to give Joe Biden the lead strategically only in the four most crucial swing states. 

More miracles to observe:

Dead people arose only to vote for Biden and then go back to their long eternal sleep, or the next Democrat election. 

With time running out, Democrat voters could take one vote and extend them out to 8 or more by running it through the machine multiple times, it is a MIRACLE. 

There was a “flood” of epic proportions not seen since the red sea parted; the state farm arena in Georgia was closed, leaving only a few Democrats to count the absentee ballots without Republican observers until late in the evening. 

It turned out to be a toilet that overflowed.
