Just to indicate the moron level intellect of one of the demoncrap candidates for Georgia Senator.

Democrat Georgia Senate Candidate, Jon Ossoff, believes that Federal ICE agents should verify good wages and working conditions for illegal immigrants. Although most of his positions are the typical of a white, liberal, trust fund Socialist, this one truly out there. Ossoff is not famous for his positions as much as for losing every time he runs.

I know this Georgia Senate race provides a real stumper for Republican voters in the Peach State. Vote for the Republican candidates (Loeffler and Perdue) and hope to stop the Democrats from totally destroying our country. Or, don’t show up and let Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock aid the enemy in finishing off our move towards Socialism. I can argue it both ways. By the way, Trump won, no matter what the Courts, Electoral College and Democrat Media Industrial Complex say, in my humble opinion.

Let us take a look at Ossoff’s position that ICE agents should not detain illegal immigrant workers, but should ensure that they have good wages and working conditions. From the Washington Free Beacon:

A resident asked Ossoff how he would deal with people who were illegally brought to the United States as minors. The Democrat went on to chastise the “brutal conditions” facing workers on Georgia farms, arguing that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents should be used not to detain illegal immigrants but rather to verify that such workers are treated well.

“When federal agents arrive at one of these farms, it should be to make sure people are being paid the minimum wage, working in humane conditions,” Ossoff said at the Sunday event, adding that the U.S. should “show humanity and compassion for those who are part of our society but living in the shadows.”

Jon Ossoff totally whiffed there. Instead of tackling a valid question on the problem of minors brought into this country, he went into a diatribe on working conditions and pay for adults who willingly come into our country in contravention of our laws. That makes them criminals and criminals, in order to not get caught, necessarily live in the shadows.

Why didn’t Ossoff want to comment on the DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) kids? Possibly because he has not been told what to think about that subject yet. Or, maybe he is hoping that the approximately 425,000 illegal immigrants living and working in Georgia will vote for him and guarantee a Senate victory. He seems more of an open borders guy, even though he claims to want policies that allow for more immigration AND strengthen our borders, whatever that means. More of that amorphous, liberal talk.

Look folks, I have got to be totally honest here. Jon Ossoff makes me think of someone who was in Student Government starting in third grade. I watched a video interview between Katie Couric and Ossoff. My biggest take away is that Ossoff has an epically punchable face. You can watch the video here. He told Couric that one of his greatest strengths was his youth. I kid you not. This guy has no depth whatsoever. I’ll tell you more about that later.

Jon Ossoff bought an existing documentary film firm and Katie Couric called him an award-winning investigative journalist. That’s kind of like Andrew Cuomo winning an Emmy for his masterful handling of Covid.

In the Student Government type arena, Ossoff claimed to have read a biography of the now late John Lewis and asked him for a job as an intern in his Atlanta office. Jon Ossoff’s greatest claim to fame, beside losing elections, is that he worked for Representative Hank Johnson, as a national security aide for five years from 2007-2012.

Why is this important? Remember I told you that Jon Ossoff had no depth? Well, his job was to brief Representative Johnson on economic policy, defense, intelligence and foreign affairs. It was in 2010, with Ossoff as his advisor that Hank Johnson worried that Guam would tip over. Remember?

Poor Admiral Willard. Jon Ossoff advised Hank John on defense, intelligence and foreign affairs for five years! You have to be dumber than a box of rocks to stay on the job for more than a day. There is a tree stump in Okefenokee Swamp with a higher I.Q. than Ossoff.

So go vote for David Perdue Georgia. Even on the train to Socialism, we cannot let a nimrod like Ossoff anywhere near the levers of power.

Loser and stupid is not a good look.

Arizona Will Subpoena Dominion For ‘Software, Machines, And Ballots’ And ‘Could Be As Early As Tomorrow’

Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Eddie Farnsworth made the announcement during their hearing on election integrity

The Arizona Senate Judiciary Committee will be issuing subpoenas to perform an audit of the Dominion “software, machines, and ballots.”
The announcement was made by Arizona State Senator Eddie Farnsworth, the Chair of the Judiciary Committee, during their hearing on election integrity, and said that the subpoenas to issue the “software, machines, and ballots” in Maricopa County could be issued as early as tomorrow.

Declaration of Independence: Not Just A 1776 Thing?

Thomas Jefferson was an author, a president of the United States, a founder of a university.

Jefferson was only 33 years old when he also wrote a document that has been long remarked upon and probably contains some of the most famous sentences in the English language: The Declaration of Independence.

The Declaration was meant to be read – a copy of it was sent to King George III,

The principles of the Declaration were in common discussion at the time in America, so Jefferson wasn’t making stuff up. Likewise, the people who got the Declaration understood what it meant: times were going to get spicy.

It’s been a while since I’ve read the Declaration, so I thought I’d review it. It’s good stuff, so I thought I’d share it. Continue reading “”

Gone In 60 Weeks

Joe Biden is not meant to govern. If he manages, and whatever he manages, that’s all well and good, and a bonus but that is not his purpose. His mission was to win the election. This he did, regardless of whether you think he did it fairly, cleanly and legally or not.

Biden was nominated because the Democrat establishment thought he was the only one of the original field of two dozen or so who had a chance of winning against Donald Trump. In that the DNC was correct. All the others vying to take on Orange Man Bad were either too inexperienced and unknown or too far to the left of the party, and so would scare the horses of the centrist American electorate. And so, one by one, they got eliminated by a combination of primary voters and the internal machinations (a special mention goes to Bernie Sanders, who got done out of the nomination for the second time in four years).

And with the election fraud seen this year, thinking she couldn’t possibly get elected is foolish thinking.

Tucker Issues a Warning… About a Potential President AOC?

Tucker Carlson on Friday warned about the potential for Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) to become president in 2024. According to Carlson, the economic conditions politicians have created due to the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic has put AOC in a position to be the next leader of the free world. Continue reading “”

Giuliani to Newsmax TV: Legal Fight Will Go On

Rudy Giuliani says President Donald Trump’s legal battle will go on despite the Supreme Court rejecting a bid Friday from Texas’ attorney general to block the ballots of millions of voters in battleground states that went in favor of Joe Biden.

“The case wasn’t rejected on the merits, the case was rejected on standing,” Giuliani said Friday during an appearance on Newsmax TV’s “Stinchfield.”

“The answer to that is to bring the case now in the district court by the president, by some of the electors, alleging the same facts where there would be standing and therefore get a hearing.”

The court’s order was issued with no public dissents. The Electoral College will convene Monday to affirm Biden’s win.

“The worst part of this is, basically the courts are saying they want to stay out of this, and they don’t want to give us a hearing and they don’t want the American people to hear these facts.,” said Giuliani.

“That’s a terrible, terrible mistake. These facts will remain an open sore in our history unless they don’t get resolved. They need to be heard, they need to be aired and somebody needs to make a decision on whether they’re true or false and some court’s going to have the courage to make that decision.”

The lawsuit, brought by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, sought to sue Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin and Michigan and invalidate their election results. The Supreme Court said Texas had not demonstrated “a judicially cognizable interest in the manner in which another State conducts its elections.”

I actually didn’t think SCOTUS could decide to not hear a case when they are the court of ‘original jurisdiction’ in the Constitution.  I guess we’re in land now where TPTB can make it up as they go. So, I guess that means the people can make it up as they go too. “Law? What Law?”

Supreme Court (?)Unanimously(?) Denies Texas Emergency Relief, Refuses to Grant Motion for Leave to File
The Supreme Court, 7-2, voted to deny Texas AG Paxton’s motion for leave to file its election complaint. Justices Alito and Thomas would grant Motion for Leave, but provide no other relief.

This evening, in Texas v. Pennsylvania, a unanimous Supreme Court refused to grant Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton an injunction or other relief that would bar the selection of presidential electors in Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. As detailed in the just-released order, seven justices would deny the Texas AG’s Motion for Leave to file a complaint, citing a lack of Article III standing. Justices Alito and Thomas, citing their long-standing belief that the Court lacks the discretion to deny the motion, would have granted the motion, but would have provided Texas with no other relief. In other words, not a single justice believed Texas deserved the extraordinary relief it sought.

The Court’s order reads:

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. All other pending motions are dismissed as moot.

Statement of Justice Alito, with whom Justice Thomas joins: In my view, we do not have discretion to deny the filing of a bill of complaint in a case that falls within our original jurisdiction. See Arizona v. California, 589 U. S. ___ (Feb. 24, 2020) (Thomas, J., dissenting). I would therefore grant the motion to file the bill of complaint but would not grant other relief, and I express no view on any other issue.

Is It Dangerous to Fight Voter Fraud? (The Dems And MSM Believe Investigations Are Bad).

I feel disenfranchised with last month’s vote because of apparent widespread voter fraud in six key swing states. But the media says, “There’s nothing to see here.” And of this writing, 40 court decisions seem to agree with them. fight voter fraud

Thank God for the alternative media which is a lifeline of information, which big tech, big media, and the cultural elites are doing their best to suppress. But you can’t suppress the truth forever. And don’t forget this is the same mainstream media that refused to report the Hunter Biden for six weeks–until a month after the election.

A congresswoman from Florida says that Trump’s attempts to expose allegations of voter fraud are undermining our nation.

Stephanie Murphy (D-Florida), whose family fled Vietnam in the late 1970s, is a U. S. Representative in the greater Orlando area. She said, “My family fled a communist dictatorship, so I’ve never taken America’s democracy for granted. The President’s claims of election fraud are discredited and dangerous, nothing more than a cynical attempt to subvert the will of the American people.”

She was responding to this tweet (12/1/20) from NPR that said the election was fair and not stolen. NPR Politics: “‘This was a secure election,’ Christopher Krebs, the former top federal government election security official, said. ‘That is a success story. That is something everyone in the administration should be proud of.’”

  • Forget those suitcases captured on video brought out in the middle of election night in Atlanta, presumably chock full of Biden ballots.
  • Forget all those dead people that voted in Pennsylvania—even people who lived through the Civil War.
  • Forget the “over 400 affidavits documenting vote fraud and polling place irregularities, documenting that there were more votes cast than registered voters in quite a number of jurisdictions,” to quote Scott Powell, American Thinker (12/5/20).
  • Forget the Detroit Democrat poll-workers who muscled Republicans out of the room in the middle of the night and then taped up the windows so no one could see what was going on.

Gary Bauer notes (12/3/20): “…in numerous progressive cities, left-wing operatives systematically threw out GOP observers one by one. The vote counters, who are government employees, often erupted in applause as the conservatives were shown the door.”

Forget all that—nothing to see here. Time to move on. To question the mainstream media’s coronation of Joe Biden as president is “dangerous,” says Rep. Murphy. Continue reading “”

Election Supervisor Shows on Video How Dominion Software Allows Changing, Adding Votes

An elections supervisor in Coffee County, Georgia, demonstrated in recent videos posted online how Dominion Voting Systems voting software allows votes to be changed through an “adjudication” process. The process allows the operator to add vote marks to a scanned ballot as well as invalidate vote marks already on the ballot.

Adjudication should only serve to resolve issues of voters marking ballots incorrectly, such as filling the bubbles in a way that doesn’t clearly show who he or she voted for. Yet it appears a substantial number of ballots went through that process, at least in some Georgia counties. As the Coffee County supervisor, Misty Martin, showed, the system can be set to allow adjudication of all scanned ballots, even blank ones, and effectively allow the operator to vote those ballots.

The videos were posted by local news site Douglas Now, whose publisher, Robert Preston, told The Epoch Times they were filmed this week in the local election office.

“According to our election folks, this Dominion system is flawed, not secure, and open to manipulation if someone were so inclined,” Preston said in a Facebook message.

It’s not clear how many ballots were adjudicated statewide. The office of Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger didn’t respond to a request for comment.

In Fulton County, which includes Atlanta, over 106,000 ballots were adjudicated by Nov. 4, said Richard Barron, the county’s director of elections, during a Nov. 4 press conference. In total, more than half a million ballots were cast in the county. Democrat Joe Biden leads Fulton with 381,144 votes compared to President Donald Trump’s 137,240.

THE SUPREME COURT AND THE ELECTORAL “SAFE HARBOR.” – BY AMIE GIBBONS

Hello again, everyone. This is Amie Gibbons. Urban fantasy, mystery, and paranormal romance author, cat mom, and most importantly for today’s post, political nut and lawyer!

The lawyer hat is on, so it’s the usual disclaimer. None of this is actual legal advice and is not to be taken as such. These are the political opinions (and rants because I’m seriously scared) of this humble lawyer today.

These views also most certainly do not reflect the views of my employer and have nothing to do with them. Why? Because (nervous chuckle) they might fire me if they see this and I don’t have my political self as distanced as humanly possible from my job and make it real fuckin’ clear this is me speaking just for myself and not them. Don’t know what my lawyer job is? Good, you can’t report me. Know what it is? Don’t report me, because I like my job, and I’m buying a house and kinda (really) need the income. I’m nowhere near quit the day job money in author earnings, especially not after the shit show of 2020, trust me 😐

Generally States have a deadline to certify their election results, this year it was December 8th, and these certified votes then allow States to send the Electors for that particular candidate to the Electoral College to officially cast their votes, this year on the 14th, and if one gets 270 electoral votes, that one usually becomes president.

This year has brought out a lot of legal questions that law students will be digging through, and lawyers will be making money on, for years to come.

That is, if our country isn’t completely destroyed by the left because they’re looking pretty damn close to stealing this election. The fat lady hasn’t sung, but the curtain is lowering and she’s running out of time to belt out the final note.

And it’s looking like a sour note at that.

Remember as you read this that I am a pessimist with anxiety and depression issues, so I tend to go towards worst case scenarios. (If there are meds strong enough to make me not care that our country is on the brink of being destroyed, I may need them in the near future, because I’m likely to give myself a heart attack at the ripe old age of 33 if this keeps up.)

The States that were up in the air certified their electors. Which means those votes where Biden cheated in the swing states are certified to go to him. Again, there could always be faithless electors that are sent to vote for him and don’t, but it’d take a lot of them doing so to affect this election.

The lawsuits at the State levels were struck down, not approved, and/or not granted, to stop the counts, audit results, and/or temporarily stop States from certifying electors so that the fraud cases had more time.

Why is this deadline important? Well, here’s the law on the certification date.

“If any State shall have provided, by laws enacted prior to the day fixed for the appointment of the electors, for its final determination of any controversy or contest concerning the appointment of all or any of the electors of such State, by judicial or other methods or procedures, and such determination shall have been made at least six days before the time fixed for the meeting of the electors, such determination made pursuant to such law so existing on said day, and made at least six days prior to said time of meeting of the electors, shall be conclusive, and shall govern in the counting of the electoral votes as provided in the Constitution, and as hereinafter regulated, so far as the ascertainment of the electors appointed by such State is concerned.” https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/3/5

Essentially this means that States make the call on certifying their own electors, and how they do this is not to be considered a federal issue, which means appealing up to the Supreme Court on that count is not likely to succeed, because they would say it’s not a federal court issue, it is one for the State’s Supreme Court to decide. And here, those State courts have decided. Continue reading “”

This isn’t simply filing an amicus brief. This is actually joining in the suit.
This isn’t something some political pundits can blow off as grandstanding.

6 states formally join Texas in law­suit defend­ing the secu­ri­ty of the 2020 election

Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Utah have formally joined Texas in its Supreme Court suit against Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—four battleground states who ran illegal and unconstitutional elections. The joining states agree with Texas: the defendant states exploited the COVID-19 pandemic to justify unlawfully enacting last-minute changes and ignoring both federal and state election laws, thus skewing the results of the 2020 General Election.

“Texas continues to lead the fight to protect election security and integrity, and today I gladly welcome Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina and Utah to this historic endeavor. By flouting state and federal election laws, the defendant battleground states have tainted the integrity of citizens’ votes across the entire nation,” said Attorney General Ken Paxton. “To restore trust in the integrity of our election process, we must tirelessly defend its security and hold accountable those who discarded our Constitution for their own convenience. Texas is proud to have these states by its side in shining the bright light of justice.”

Attorney General Paxton filed an original lawsuit in the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday, December 7, arguing that the Supreme Court must require the four defendant-states to conduct their elections in a manner that complies with the Constitution and all federal and state laws.

BLUF:
These injuries, Texas asserts, demand a remedy. But the remedy sought is not what some may surmise is the goal—a second term for President Trump.

No, what Texas seeks is for the Supreme Court to mandate that the defendant states comply with the Constitution, and that means that electors are selected by the states’ legislatures. Texas makes this point clear, stressing: “Plaintiff State does not ask this Court to decide who won the election; they only ask that the Court enjoin the clear violations of the Electors Clause of the Constitution.”

6 Things To Know About Texas’s Supreme Court Petition Over 2020’s Messed-Up Election.

The combined filings, which also include a request for an expedited review and a preliminary injunction, spanned more than 150 pages. Here’s what you need to know about this latest election case.

Election Fraud Update for December 7, 2020.

We are rapidly approaching the endgame on election fraud remedies. States must ratify their final electors by December 8 (the ‘safe harbor’ date), and electors meet and vote on December 14. Either the Supreme Court will have stopped the steal by that date, or Joe Biden will officially receive enough electoral votes to be elected President.

The evolution of the narrative:

Georgia state legislators call for special session to review election

Georgia State Legislators are introducing a petition to call a Special Session on December 8, 2020. The session would be meant to review the election results and alleged fraud. The petition must be signed by three-fifths of the members of each house. The lawmakers must also give a copy to the secretary of state.

This comes as Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger attests, “we don’t see anything that would overturn the will of the people.” Nonetheless, Senator Burt Jones said “we believe we have reached the point that the results of this election are untrustworthy.

“Such pervasive disregard for election laws by our election officials requires a decisive response. It is time for our legislative body to do its job,” he continued.

Joe Biden is certified to have won the state of Georgia by 12,284 votes.

Massive Civil Disobedience Coming to the USA in 2021

When I read Saturday morning the Republican speaker of the Arizona House declared the legislature of his state “cannot and would not overturn the election,” before the agreed-upon forensic inspection of Dominion voting machines in Maricopa County even took place, it only confirmed what I have been coming to suspect for some time: 2021 will be a year of massive civil disobedience in the United States of America.

How this civil disobedience will manifest, I am not certain, but it will come.

But don’t be alarmed… well, not overly… because the seventy-four or so million Trump supporters who feel disenfranchised not only by the manipulations of the opposite party and their media friends but also by the considerable number of self-interested leaders in their own party who have betrayed them, are not likely to resort to violence like the Antifa sociopaths.

These are good, patriotic people.

Wittingly or not, they will follow the examples from Henry David Thoreau’s famous 1849 essay “Civil Disobedience”—original title “Resistance to Civil Government”—which begins:

“I heartily accept the motto, ‘That government is best which governs least’; and I should like to see it acted up to more rapidly and systematically.”

But if these same patriotic people, known as the “deplorables,” are violently opposed, all bets are off.

Civil disobedience will morph into civil war.

At first, however, my guess is this new (and more genuine) “resistance” will take three forms: 1. Mass and growing demonstrations; 2. Non-payment of taxes, threatening to bankrupt the national treasury since most of these people are hard-working and employed; 3. A general movement of what we might call John Galt-ism, after the character in Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged.” Vast numbers of our citizens will simply check out and return to their own farms, or versions thereof, like the Roman emperor Cincinnatus was alleged to have done.

BLUF:
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp called on Raffensperger to order a signature audit after the release of video footage that appeared to show poll workers in Fulton County processing ballots in the middle of the night with no observers.

Speaking to Fox News, Kemp said, “I think it should be done. I think especially with what we saw today, it raises more questions. There needs to be transparency on that.”

Georgia County Can’t Find Chain of Custody Records for Absentee Ballots.

Georgia’s Dekalb County does not know if it is in possession of the ballot transfer forms used to record the chain of custody for absentee ballots dropped into some 300 drop boxes around the state.

The Georgia Department of Voting, Registration and Election responded to an open records request for the transfer forms from Georgia Star by writing that “it has not yet been determined if responsive records to your request exist.”

“DeKalb County and VRE are currently operating within its COVID-19 Emergency Response Plan. These remote operations and VRE’s current workload greatly impact how soon responsive records can be provided,” the response from the department stated.

“VRE is expected to make this determination within thirty business days.”

Georgia Star requested the ballot transfer forms from several counties. Cobb County and Cook County have complied with the request, each providing copies of the forms. Continue reading “”

Alito Demands Briefs in Pennsylvania Congressman’s Lawsuit to Flip the Election

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has asked Pennsylvania officials to file response briefs in a so-far-failed attempt by GOP Congressman Mike Kelly to flip Pennsylvania’s 2020 election results.  Kelly, a loyal and longtime supporter of President Donald Trump, is asking the nation’s highest court to take up the same elections case the Pennsylvania Supreme Court summarily ejected with prejudice last weekend.  Kelly’s 50-page application and 213-page appendix was submitted to Alito because he is the justice who oversees incoming matters from the Third Circuit, which includes Pennsylvania.

Though Alito originally called for response arguments from the Commonwealth to be filed by 4 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 9th, the case docket was changed Sunday morning to move that deadline up to Tuesday, Dec. 8, by 9 a.m.  The change is critical.  Pennsylvania’s members of the electoral college are due to meet at noon on Dec. 14th in Harrisburg to cast their votes for president.  As Law&Crime has previously reported, and as Kelly’s arguments point out, federal election law sets a so-called “safe harbor” deadline which requires controversies “concerning the appointment of all or any of the electors . . . by judicial or other methods or procedures” to be determined “at least six days before the time fixed for the meeting of the electors.”  Alito’s original Dec. 9th deadline failed to take that window into account.  His new deadline does.

Dominion Contractor at Detroit Counting Center Says Thousands of Ballots Were Scanned Multiple Times

A contractor for Dominion Voting Systems, who worked at Detroit’s TCF Center on Election Day, has told Michigan lawmakers that she saw roughly 30,000 ballots being scanned multiple times by the counting machines.

The contractor, Mellissa Carone, who works as a freelance IT professional, made the allegations Wednesday night before a panel of Michigan House Oversight Committee members.

Carone was at the Detroit center early on Election Day, Nov. 3, until about 4 the next morning. She also returned to the site later on Nov. 4. Continue reading “”

“This Needs Answers”: CCTV Video of Georgia Poll Workers Sparks Election Fraud Outrage

Disturbing election night footage has emerged showing Georgia poll workers waiting for observers and news outlets to leave State Farm Arena in Atlanta after calling an end to counting for the night, before pulling out several large suitcases containing ballots from under a table.

The footage, presented by an attorney working with Republicans during a Thursday state Senate hearing, is perhaps the strongest direct evidence of potential fraud, and demands serious inquiry. In it, a handful of poll workers can clearly be seen staying behind after GOP observers say they were told to clear out. After the media packs up their belongings, the workers can be seen pulling out the suitcases and opening them at approximately 11 p.m.

Of note, earlier in the day, counting was paused for approximately 90 minutes due to what officials blamed on a ‘water main break’ — which turned out to be a lie, and was in fact a ‘slow leak,’ according to news.com.au.

Here are two segments of the clip, which we recommend watching on full screen (as well as watching the full video):

First, watch the media in the lower-right quadrant at the long table at 10:40 p.m.

And so we ask; if this isn’t election fraud, what is it? We’re sure Snopes will say they were having a midnight snack, but people have questions.
