HERE’S THE LIST Of Opaque Third Parties That Control 98% of Our Elections and Personal Info With NO Oversight

by guest writer Patrice Johnson

Elon Musk’s release of the Twitter Files exposed the federal government of censoring free speech for the purpose of influencing election outcomes. The revelations may well put an end to the government’s totalitarian silencing of dissent at Twitter. But the files raise bigger, deeply concerning questions about federal, big tech, and media company over reach. What other election influence operations did the government and corporations conceal? Who was involved? How deep did the polluted waters run…and are they still running?

Patrick Colbeck, President of the Letsfixstuff.org and Michigan Grassroots Alliance, follows the money below and builds on the investigative reporting of Jim Hoft for The Gateway Pundit. The trail leads to a spidery web of Leftist programs–all designed to gain unfair access to local election data and protected, personal information.

The Albert Sensor Systems: How Government and a 501(c)3 Tracks Real-Time Election Data in 98% of the US – Put Into Effect by DHS After Trump Won in 2016

Outside Twitter, a near-opaque shroud of secrecy masks the hazards to election integrity. The intent of the players? You be the judge.

Non-profit CIS Deploys Albert Sensors to all 50 states

The trail starts, as is so often the case these days, with a non-profit 501(C)3 organization. The Center for Internet Security (CIS) deploys Albert Sensors to State, Local, Tribal and Territorial (SLTT) units of government in all 50 states. The product’s namesake, Albert Einstein, elicits feelings of trust and admiration.

Albert Sensors have been deployed to State, Local, Tribal and Territorial (SLTT) units of government in all 50 states. The sensors consist of a Dell server running Oracle/Unbreakable Linux operation system and additional unspecified software. 

“I find it interesting,”  Colbeck writes, “that an organization called the Center for Internet Security is being used by nearly all counties in America to secure election equipment, considering election officials and traditional media outlets swear that this equipment is ‘not connected to the internet.'”

Albert sensors, deployed to SLTT government entities across America, act as the gatekeepers. They control all data traffic into and out of each network environment. Albert Sensors enable CIS to monitor the flow of data, detect intrusion, and provide “deep packet inspection (DPI).”

Albert Sensors Logical Network Diagram

CIS and each of these entities, Colbeck writes, have their own internal network connected to the internet, featuring “Election Management System (EMS) servers used to aggregate election data from other sources.”

CIS “shares incoming and outgoing data with various partners” like the Suricata platform that monitors for intrusions.

However, Colbeck notes, “The capabilities provided by the Suricata platform seem to go well beyond Network Intrusion Detection.”

Deep Packet Inspection

CIS likes to focus public discussions on the ability of Albert Sensors to capture Netflow Data and the use of open source Suricata software to detect network intrusions. What it rarely discusses outside of technical forums is its capability to perform Deep Packet Inspection (DPI). These “packets” are the real treasure for cybersecurity professionals and hackers alike. Netflow Data simply provides the treasure map.

The Suricata platform enables the recording of these “packets” of interest for later analysis. These recordings are sometimes referred to as packet capture (PCAPs). DPI refers to the CIS ability to “inspect” PCAPs ostensibly to detect the introduction of malware into a given network.

As far as elections go, “the packets of interest include voter registration data and election results.”

Einstein

The CIS Albert Sensors work in concert with Einstein, a cybersecurity system developed and administered by the Federal Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency. CISA’s mission is to provide a common baseline of security across the Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) and to help agencies manage their cyber risk.

This common baseline is provided in part through the EINSTEIN system. EINSTEIN serves two key roles in FCEB cybersecurity. First, EINSTEIN detects and blocks cyberattacks from compromising federal agencies. Second, EINSTEIN provides CISA with the situational awareness to use threat information detected in one agency to protect the rest of the government and to help the private sector protect itself.

–CISA.gov/Einstein

While Albert Sensors are focused on State, Local, Tribal and Territorial units of government, Einstein is focused upon security units within the federal government. CISA and CIS often work jointly on cybersecurity efforts effectively combining “Albert” with “Einstein” as a demonstration of their operational synergy.

Who is the Center for Internet Security (CIS)?

According to the latest publicly available Form 990, CIS has 308 employees and 184 volunteers plus an unknown number of subcontractors.

CIS features a management team that has significant experience working for the federal government.

CIS Management Team with Federal Government Experience

In addition to employees, CIS employs a robust suite of contractors likely privy to most if not all of the information available to employees.

2020 Form 990 Center for Internet Security

Most CIS Money Comes from the Government

One of the best ways to understand what drives the operations of any organization is to follow the money. An examination of CIS revenue sources per their Form 990 reveals that their primary source of revenue is the federal government. This revenue comes in the form of grants and various program services.

These funds enable the federal government to offer CIS products and services for free to county governments. With a 98% adoption rate, “free” cybersecurity products and services appear to be a difficult deal for most election officials to refuse.

Here’s a sample of a CIS County Memorandum of Agreement (MOA).

Dallas County, TX and Center for Internet Security MOA

This agreement or something similar to it is reported to cover 98% of the election infrastructure across America. So, while electronic voting systems used to manage elections may vary widely from county to county, a significant degree of homogeneity exists when it comes to who controls the data going into and out of these electronic voting systems. The significance of this unprecedented level of data access regarding our elections cannot be overstated.

Provision within CIS MOA with County Election Officials

Just to be clear, access to “any communications or data transiting” means that anyone employed by CIS including their many subcontractors and even partners would likely have access to our election data. This “data” includes user accounts, privileges, and credentials – everything one would need to go beyond “listening” to data flowing over the network and actually manipulate such data in transit.

Under the Biden Administration, this MOA has been picking up steam. On May 2021, Biden signed an Executive Order to expand the scope of the MOA’s to address more detailed “object level” data (i.e. packet information).

However, Biden signed a cybersecurity Executive Order in May 2021 that required anyone in the CDM program to sign an new agreement (MOA). This mandates they now provide the more detailed “object level” data to CISA. This is supposedly for better “assessment and threat-hunting” purposes. ALBERT customers automatically become members of MS-ISAC. This Multi-State sharing program distributes cybersecurity information amongst its 13,000 members. It’s like your PC anti-virus software which reports any cyber issue, experienced by any user, to one central command.
–The Gateway Pundit https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/12/alberts-systems/

The previous MOA was between SLTT entities and CIS. The new MOA extends the terms of the agreement to include the federal government directly via CISA. Under the new MOA, the federal government is now effectively the middleman for all election data across all 50 states.

Program Services

In addition to federal grants related to the deployment of Albert Sensors to SLTT entities, Program Services provide a major source of revenue for CIS. These program services are broken down into the following categories in their Form 990:

• Security Best Practices
• Partner Paid
• Product Sales
• Democracy Fund
• Cyber Security Network (2-1-1)

Let’s take a closer look at these services.

Security Best Practices

A significant source of revenue pertains to training services for security best practices.

Partner Paid

In addition to providing “free” services to counties as part of the MS-ISAC program, CIS also offers cybersecurity benchmarking services to state, local, territorial and tribal (SLTT) government entities.

Product Sales

CIS also generates revenue by marketing its brand and various resources.

Democracy Fund

One significant source of revenue cited by CIS in its Form 990 filing is an organization referred to as the Democracy Fund. Interestingly, Democracy Fund was also identified as one of CIS’s largest expenses under “Program Service Accomplishments.

It appears that Democracy Fund served as the cybersecurity advocacy wing of CIS with their target being election officials but it is difficult to discern their exact role.

Cyber Security Network (2-1-1)

I [Patrick Colbeck] was unable to chase down any useful information pertaining to this CIS revenue source.

Risks

The CIS Albert Sensors have been deployed to cover 98% of America’s election infrastructure. That is a significant market footprint. This market footprint corresponds to a single point of failure for what has been designated a Critical Infrastructure Component for America – our elections. Any bad actor intent upon undermining the integrity of our elections would likely focus on this single access point.

Should we be concerned about this risk? Let’s see.

Lack of Transparency

Lack of transparency provides fertile ground for the corruption of any organization. That’s why transparency in the conduct of our elections is so important. The increasing usage of electronic systems to manage the conduct of our elections makes transparency more and more difficult. Election observers can readily monitor paper transactions. However, election observers are often denied access to election systems which conduct electronic transactions. How then would the general public know if our election results had been subverted via manipulation of electronic election records?

To perform this oversight, citizens rely predominantly upon Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests. Unfortunately, there seems to be a pattern of “outsourcing” key government election functions to privately managed, non-government organizations (NGO’s) which are not subject to FOIA requests.

• CIS provides cybersecurity.
• ERIC manages voter registration data.
• Electronic voting system vendors tabulate our votes.

The upside to our government using outside organizations is that they are often able to secure the services of the best and brightest minds in a given field of expertise. There are significant downsides however. NGO’s such as CIS are not subject to FOIA requests.

Furthermore, these private organizations are very tight-lipped in the data they share with their customers. After all, if this data were shared with public officials, this information would be subject to disclosure via FOIA requests.

In this light, the use of private organizations would certainly be beneficial to anyone attempting to prevent the public from accessing key information related to election integrity.

CIS

As “gatekeepers” to our election system, CIS sits smack dab in the middle of all data flow pertaining to our election system. This is a powerful role. We know that CIS data is unavailable to the public at large because CIS is a private organization, not subject to FOIA requests.

Did you know that the data collected by CIS when monitoring the cyber traffic for their customers cannot even be viewed by their own customers? In the words of Nancy Churchill in the following article, “The Albert sensor is a true ‘black box system’ – a node on the county network that the county cannot control and cannot monitor.”

Inside this “black box,” CIS operatives have the ability to capture, analyze and potentially modify packet information obtained via Albert Sensors. All this can be performed without any oversight by their customers or the general public.

 

Election Registration Information Center (ERIC)

Another important NGO pertaining to elections is known as the Election Registration Information Center or ERIC. ERIC is a non-profit 501(c)3 membership organization consisting of state election officials working together ostensibly to improve the accuracy of state voter registration lists and educate eligible citizens on how to register to vote.

ERIC controls the information captured within state voter registration databases. These databases not only include lists of eligible voters for a given election, they also contain their voting history plus a significant amount of sensitive PII [personally identifiable information].

CIS has made reference to having customers in election integrity organizations in addition to their SLTT customers. ERIC is likely one of those customers, but this has not yet been confirmed, again, because ERIC is a private organization, and exempt from FOIA requests.

The general public has no idea how ERIC and its partners manipulate the contents of state voter registration databases. If these databases contain records that enable ineligible voters to vote, our election system is exposed to a significant avenue for election fraud.

Since ERIC shares data with entities of its choosing, leftist organizations like the Center for Election Innovation and Research (CEIR) and the Soros’-owned Catalyst database system appear to be enjoying exclusive (and legally unauthorized) access to data no other parties can access or buy.

Electronic Voting Systems

The last example of private organizations running our elections without any substantive transparency pertains to electronic voting system vendors like Dominion, ES&S, or Hart Intercivic. Electronic voting systems are responsible for tabulating the votes cast on ballots across America. Due to illusory provisions in their contracts with our government, citizens and even most government officials are not allowed to examine how they tabulate the votes or even examine their audit trail.

Dominion Contract with State of Michigan

Because they are a private organization, they are not subject to FOIA requests.

The general public cannot see how our votes are tabulated, but private Voting System Test Laboratory (VSTL) vendors such as Pro V&V or SLI can. To make matters worse, the responsibility for monitoring VSTL vendors features a former voting system vendor executive. This all makes for an opaque, close-knit community responsible for the oversight of our elections.

Lack of Data Privacy

The CIS MOA includes a provision that “computer users have no reasonable expectation for privacy.” This should raise eyebrows. After all, the data collected by CIS via Albert Sensors goes well beyond election data in scope. Since CIS deploys these sensors on State, Local, Tribal and Territorial government networks, any of the data communicated through the Albert Sensor is subject to collection and analysis. Citizens file tax forms electronically. Police investigations feature electronic records. Government assistance and health records are stored and communicated electronically.

Employee records and other human resource data on employees are stored and communicated electronically. CIS has positioned itself to collect a significant amount of personally identifiable information (PII) that could be used to intimidate, blackmail, or otherwise make the lives of everyday citizens quite miserable…all without public oversight.

Trustworthiness of “Trusted” Organizations

Citizens are forced to place a significant amount of trust in organizations protected from transparency. Are there “trusted” organizations without our election system that should not be trusted? What would happen if Albert Sensors and the Einstein system were to enable enemies of America to operate with impunity inside the gates of our election systems?

In an organization with as broad a reach as CIS (98% of election infrastructure), all it would take is one bad actor among its employees, contractors, customers, or partner organizations to compromise the security of any network to which their products have been deployed to secure. Is the trust in organizations such as CIS warranted? Let’s find out.

Twitter Files

Twitter is a private organization that has been lionized in the media as a free speech platform that protects the general public from misinformation. This media perception of Twitter changed drastically in the wake of Elon Musk’s purchase of Twitter. Musk then proceeded to release an avalanche of information on the inner workings of Twitter, known as the “Twitter files.”

Twitter Files Sample

The Twitter Files clearly reveal evidence that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) interfered with the 2020 election. CIS and their partners feature significant ties to the FBI. Their role as election data gatekeeper would certainly make them a tempting target of any bad actors in the FBI.

Hunter Biden Laptop

The FBI is not the only federal agency associated with election interference. The intelligence community was heavily involved as was well evidenced by the following letter released shortly before the November 3, 2020 general election:

Letter Signed by 51 Current and Former U.S. Federal Intelligence Operatives

The letter falsely insinuates that the Hunter Biden laptop containing evidence of treason by members of the Biden family was part of a Russian disinformation campaign. While this letter is rather nuanced in this connection, the “Twitter Files” show that government officials were much more assertive in their directives to block the release of any information that would cast Joe Biden in a bad light before the 2020 election.

What is most concerning is that the contents of the Biden laptop indicate significant financial contributions by China to the Biden family. Against this backdrop, the former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, issued a memo on January 7, 2021, entitled “Views on Intelligence Community Election Security Analysis,” in which he asserts the views of China cyber analysts were suppressed by the incoming administration so as to give the impression that China was not interested in influencing our elections.
CIS and its partners feature significant ties to the intelligence community. Their role as election data gatekeepers would certainly make them a tempting target of any bad actors in the intelligence community.

Democracy Fund

Now let’s have a closer look at one of the partners of the Center for Internet Security known as The Democracy Fund. The Democracy Fund is a strange bedfellow for CIS.

The Democracy Fund is a charity created by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar to help the Democrat Party and fund leftwing media. They provided funding to the NSGIC (National State Geospatial Council) and partnered with CTCL to push the “Geo-Enabled Elections” initiative. They want to create GIS map departments in targeted elections to digitize all voters into a lat/long to map their location. Sophisticated mapping is the left’s key to targeting voters.

Their efforts to connect GIS systems with electronic voting systems enables anyone with access to the GIS system to also have access to election records not available to the general public.

Democracy Fund was also involved with the “Voting Information Project” (VIP). This was the brainchild of left-leaning Pew Charitable Trust in partnership with Google. It collects massive amounts of election information from States and Counties, including sample ballots, polling places, and voter registration.

The VIP project controls and disseminates election information to voters nationwide. Democracy Fund also hired a consultant in 2017 to work on an election modeling project that lasted years. This same consultant was on the NIST team that created our election data standards. Democracy Fund pushes the corrupt Ranked Choice Voting system and supports leftwing voter registration organizations like Rock the Vote, Democracy Works, and FairVote.

The Amistad Project has mapped out the financial ties between the Democracy Fund other progressive organizations such as the Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL).

The Amistad Project Financial Relationships Analysis

CTCL has been cited in numerous equal protection lawsuits related to election integrity.

No matter how you slice it, any CIS connection to the Democracy Fund should raise the eyebrows of anyone concerned with election integrity.

What products and services were provided to the Democracy Fund by CIS in exchange for their payments?

Were they provided with “inside the gates” access to sensitive election information?

The answers are difficult to tell because both Democracy Fund and CIS are private organizations, not subject to FOIA requests.

CIS and their partners feature significant ties to the Democracy Fund. Their role as election data gatekeeper would certainly make them a tempting target of any bad actors in the Democracy Fund.

Shutdown DC

There are many other organizations tied to election interference which involve current federal employees and contractors. Shutdown DC is one of these organizations which you have probably never heard about. Millie Weaver exposes their operations in the following story featuring Zoom calls attended by federal employees and contractors.

The federal government should have a very insignificant role in the management of our elections yet as Biden’s Executive Order and Zoom calls such as the one referenced in Millie Weaver’s post indicate, there are individuals within the federal government with definite plans to exert significant influence in our elections.

CIS and their partners feature significant ties to current and past federal employees. Their role as election data gatekeeper would certainly make them a tempting target of any bad actors in the federal government.

Effectiveness

Some may argue that the use of private organizations not subject to transparency is worth the risk due to the cybersecurity threats posed by hackers and state actors. In this light, it is reasonable to ask “are Albert Sensors effective at securing government sites from cyber threats?” As it turns out, there is significant evidence that they are not effective.

Despite the use of the name of widely respected genius Albert Einstein, Ferry County, WA county officials were not impressed when nearby Lincoln County was the victim of a ransomware attack a month after the installation of their Albert sensor. CIS reportedly didn’t even notify Lincoln County officials of the attack. Ferry County commissioners later voted to remove their Albert Sensors but around 98% of America’s election infrastructure still uses them.

Albert was not the only half of the “Albert Einstein” collaboration to have failed to protect organizations. The CISA Einstein system didn’t prevent Federal Agencies from being compromised by the SolarWinds Orion Platform intrusion.

CIS Executive Overview on SolarWinds Cyber-Attack

The SolarWinds Cyber-Attack was successful because it compromised a trusted software component responsible for updating client software installations. It was successful because it had planted malware inside the supposedly secure cyber walls protecting over 18,000 SolarWinds customers including CISA itself. It certainly would be interesting to know if CIS, the gatekeeper of our nation’s election data, was also a SolarWinds customer. If so, whoever was behind the 2020 SolarWinds hack, likely had control over who our President would be.

If Albert Sensors increase the risk of bad actors having the ability to control election data all across the country yet they are not effective at protecting government systems from hacking, we need to investigate whether or not cybersecurity is the real reason they were deployed. After all, we could mitigate the need for such cutting edge skills in the management of our elections by simply counting paper ballots by hand, but that’s not the path they chose. We should be asking why they chose not to follow the lead of countries such as France and the Netherlands who tabulate paper ballot votes by hand. Instead, we blindly trust our government officials when they pursue electronic voting systems to manage election records and tabulate our votes.

CONCLUSION

Those who support the assertion by the former CISA Director Chris Krebs that the 2020 election was “the most secure election in American history” have long claimed that our electronic voting systems are secure from man-in-the-middle attacks due to the use of firewalls, VPNs, secure tunnel protocols and organizations such as the Center for Internet Security.

How do we know this? They tell us that it is so, of course.

What happens if we as citizens seek to investigate the security of our elections ourselves? We are prevented from getting access to the information necessary to demonstrate that the chain of custody regarding our election records has been maintained.

When we protest, we are told that we need to trust them. They then proceed to engage private organizations to perform most of their dirty work, knowing full well that these organizations are not subject to our primary investigative tool as citizens – the FOIA request.

We already have substantive evidence of federal employees engaged in plots with private organizations to undermine the integrity of our elections.

It was big news when social media company Twitter collected $3,415,323 since 2019 from the FBI in exchange for censoring Biden’s political opponents. The Center for Internet Security collected $42,904,994 from the Department of Homeland Security in a single year.

CIS capabilities go beyond influencing public opinion. Through the use of Albert Sensors,
CIS is the gatekeeper for the data that determines who wins our elections. There is little to no oversight of their efforts. Do we need another billionaire to purchase CIS to finally find out what really happens to our election data?

The American people are unwittingly placing an inordinate amount of trust in a private organization and the organizations with whom it collaborates. The SolarWinds hack was enabled by the corruption of a trusted software component. What happens when our elections are hacked by trusted individuals?

We are told that there are security protocols in place that prevent internet-based “man-in-the-middle” attacks that could manipulate the results of our elections. What happens if the dreaded internet-based “man-in-the-middle” attacks are actually performed by individuals “in the middle” of an organization’s trusted network environment? What if the manipulation of election data occurred within the vaulted security walls that we have erected around our election data? How would we ever know?

Today’s system is designed to prevent us from ever knowing. That lack of transparency should concern every citizen in our nation…especially in light of the evidence that “trusted” individuals in government already have been caught attempting to manipulate our elections.

It is time to apply President Reagan’s “trust but verify” policy to private organizations at the center of our modern electronic voting systems, such as CIS and ERIC. We either need to make CIS and ERIC subject to FOIA requests, or we need to remove the risks they pose by returning to hand counts of paper ballots.

BREAKING! PA Election Integrity Group Founder Granted Right to View Digital Copy of Cast Vote Record File For EVERY Precinct Tabulator Used in 2020 Election After Providing Evidence 120,000 More Votes Cast Than Registered Voters

Pennsylvania voters are one step closer to knowing the truth about the state’s 2020 General Presidential Election after Verity Vote founder Heather Honey wins her appeal under Pennsylvania’s Right to Know law.

Pennsylvania resident Heather Honey has a background in corporate investigations, open-source research, and supply chain auditing. she was the perfect professional to personally discover election irregularities in her state and track them down through records requests, “outside the box” applications of technologies, and forensic analysis.

In 2020, Honey stood in line with her son, a newly registered voter at the time, to cast their ballots in the 2020 Presidential general election. An elderly couple stood in line before Heather Honey and her son as they stepped up to vote. The man’s name was checked off on the numbered voter list and his ballot prepared, but his wife was told she could not vote as she had already voted via mail. The couple both insisted that the woman had not voted by mail, but she was only allowed to cast a provisional ballot without any assurance that her vote would be counted.

According to the Thomas More Law Society, the disturbing incident piqued Honey’s curiosity. As an open-source investigator, she decided to apply those skills to determine how frequently that type of situation occurred.

“The more that Ms. Honey learned,” Breth added, “The more she came to believe that the Pennsylvania Department of State was giving guidance to election officials that was based on political reasons rather than the law. Honey observed that any activities that were purported to determine accuracy in the voting process were not based on Pennsylvania law, leading one to believe that these officials either don’t know what the law is or they feel like they don’t have to follow it.”

While investigating the 2020 election, Heather created Verity Vote, an organization dedicated to election transparency, matching the numbers of ballots with the number of citizens voting, and many other critical aspects of keeping lawful votes secure and accurately recorded while identifying discrepancies and breaches of election statutes.

The Thomas More Law Society is representing Heather Honey in her fight to obtain a digital copy of the cast vote record file for every precinct tabulator and central tabulator used in the 2020 General Election

On December 16, 2022, a judge ordered the Lycoming County Office of Voter Services to provide investigator Heather Honey with the information she requested.

Thomas More Society Special Counsel Tom Breth described how Honey, an open-source investigator and the founder of Verity Vote, originally requested the cast vote record in October 2021, which the Lycoming County Office of Voter Services denied. A subsequent appeal to the Pennsylvania Office of Open Records was denied on January 6, 2022, resulting in Honey’s February 3, 2022, petition for a review of the denial under Pennsylvania’s Right-to-Know law.

“Heather Honey, a Pennsylvania voter, is fighting for the election integrity that all Pennsylvania voters deserve,” explained Breth. “The cast vote record is simply an electronic record of a voter’s ballot selections, and its primary purpose is to provide a record of voter selections that can be counted in an efficient manner to produce election results. That data can be key to proving the veracity of Ms. Honey’s documented evidence showing that Pennsylvania’s 2020 general election results show that there were 120,000 fewer voters registered to vote in Pennsylvania than there were ballots counted. That’s 120,000 votes that cannot be legally attached to an actual voter.”

The court determined that the Lycoming County cast vote record is not excepted from public access, as it is not “the contents of ballot boxes [or] voting machines” and ordered Lycoming County Voter Services to provide Honey with a printed copy of the cast vote record from the Lycoming County 2020 General Election.

Watch Heather Honey’s interview with election integrity expert Cleta Mitchell:

The court order will take effect on January 15, 2023, unless an appeal is filed.

Read the Opinion and Order, issued December 16, 2022, by Judge Eric R. Linhardt in the Court of Common Pleas of Lycoming County, Pennsylvania, regarding the Right-to-Know Law Appeal presented by Thomas More Society attorneys on behalf of Heather Honey in Heather Honey v. Lycoming County Office of Voter Services here.

BREAKING: Arizona Court Rules On Kari Lake’s Election Lawsuit

Republican Gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake filed an election lawsuit after narrowly losing the race to Secretary of State Katie Hobbs.

The lawsuit, which highlights a litany of irregularities and issues in Maricopa County’s elections, requests that the county do its election over.

In a partial victory for Lake, The Maricopa County Superior Court of Arizona granted Lake’s request for 50 election-day ballots to be inspected from six different polling centers in Maricopa County.

The court also granted her request for 50 election-day ballots marked ‘spoiled’ to be inspected and 50 early voting ballots.

According to county election officials, nearly 20% of Maricopa County’s malfunctioned, causing hours-long lines and many voters to cast provisional ballots that had to be hand-counted at a later point.

Lake encouraged voters to stay in line and wait to cast a traditional ballot on election day rather than casting a provisional ballot.

The Daily Caller Reports–

A court Thursday granted parts of Republican Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake’s request to have some Maricopa County ballots inspected as she contests the results of her election defeat against Democratic Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs.

Lake filed a lawsuit Dec. 9 seeking to be declared the election’s winner or have Maricopa County ordered to re-run its gubernatorial election, according to USA Today. The Maricopa County Superior Court of Arizona granted her petition for inspecting 50 randomly-selected Election-Day-cast and Election Day spoil-marked “ballot-on-demand” printed ballots respectively from six separate Maricopa County voting centers and 50 early cast ballots from six separate county batches.

The court rejected Lake’s request to have 50 randomly selected early ballots’ envelopes inspected. It forbids the approved inspections from disturbing any ballots’ integrity, storage or maintenance in the county’s custody or interfering with any ongoing 2022 election result recount.

The court ordered the inspection to start Tuesday morning.

Democratic Senator In Key Swing State Refuses To Commit To Running For Re-Election

While Democrats were able to defy expectations and net a seat in the Senate during the 2022 midterms, they will have a tougher path in the 2024 election.

There are only two at-risk states where Democrats would have a pickup opportunity in 2024, Florida and Texas.

Even so, Florida has continued to trend red as every statewide Republican won a double-digit victory in 2022.

Meanwhile, Democrats will have to defend their seats in multiple purple and red states, including Nevada, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, West Virginia, Montana, and Pennsylvania.

To make matters worse,  Senator Jon Tester (D-Mont.) has not committed to running for re-election, saying that he will make a decision when the 2024 elections draw closer.

Additionally, Senator Krysten Sinema (Ind-Az.) has left the Democratic Party, though she will likely still caucus with them and has said she will take her committee assignments through Democrats.

The Epoch Times Reports–

Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.) said he has not decided on whether or not he’ll run for reelection in Montana during the 2024 election.

“If I decide to run in this thing, and it’ll be a discussion that I have with my family over the holidays because it is a big undertaking, I feel good about my chances,” Tester, 66, told NBC News on Sunday.

Some analysts said Tester, whose state voted heavily in favor of former President Donald Trump in 2020, is among the most vulnerable Democrats in the Senate during the upcoming election cycle. Currently, Democrats have a majority in the Senate, although the party’s prospects have been complicated after Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) announced she would become an Independent but will hold committee assignments through the Democratic caucus.

“People are going to come after me,” Tester told the outlet. “They’ve come after me in the past, but that’s politics. And we’ll get through it and then hopefully be successful come November of 2024.”

BREAKING: Judge Orders Emergency Hearing In Arizona Election Lawsuit, Demands Appearances From Kari Lake And Katie Hobbs

Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake has exposed a number of problems with Arizona’s election system.

Maricopa County has, per usual, had the most issues.

Lake has alleged that the county counted tens of thousands of ballots with signatures that could not be verified and were just scribbles.

That is on top of election day problems that the county had with tabulating in-person votes, which are overwhelmingly Republican.

Videos from across the county showed polling stations with hours-long lines that had one, or no functional vote tabulating machines.

Lake decided to sue after losing narrowly to Hobbs, by about 17,000 votes.

On Tuesday, a judge who is presiding over the lawsuit ordered an emergency appearance for Lake, Hobbs, Maricopa election officials, and other witnesses to appear in court.

According to recent reports, Hobbs did not attend despite the request.

The Epoch Times Reports–

A judge overseeing Republican Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake’s electoral lawsuit ordered Lake, Secretary of State and Arizona Gov.-elect Katie Hobbs, Maricopa County Board of Supervisors officials, and others to appear at a court hearing on Tuesday.

Judge Peter Thompson, in issuing the (pdf) order, wrote that the court has “reviewed” Lake’s “verified statement of election contest” and said the “matter will be set on an accelerated basis.” Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer and Board of Supervisors Chairman Bill Gates were also ordered to attend the hearing, which will start at 2 p.m. ET.

It comes as Lake stated Monday that her lawsuit is, in part, fueled by alleged whistleblower claims who have come forward.

“We’ve had three whistleblowers from Maricopa County reach out and say the system is seriously flawed,” Lake told Just the News on Monday, days after the suit was filed with a Maricopa County court.

BREAKING: Newly Released #TwitterFiles Prove Former Head of “Trust & Safety,” Yoel Roth, Met WEEKLY With FBI, DHS And DNI Leading Up To 2020 Elections

Elon Musk’s third Twitter dump came Friday night, exposing the internal decision to remove President Donald Trump from the platform after Jan. 6. Twitter executives clearly understood the actions they were taking to suppress free speech.

 

2.The world knows much of the story of what happened…

3. We’ll show you what hasn’t been revealed:

4. The first installment covers the period before the election through January 6

5. Whatever your opinion on the decision to remove Trump that day, the internal communications at Twitter between January 6th- January 8th have clear historical import.

6. As soon as they finished banning Trump, Twitter execs started processing new power.

7. Twitter executives removed Trump in part over what one executive called “context surrounding”

8. The bulk of the internal debate leading up to Trump’s ban took place in those three January days.

9. Before J6 Twitter was a unique mix of automated, rules-based enforcement, and more subjective moderation by senior executives. As @BariWeiss reported the firm had a vast array of tools for manipulating visibility, most all of which were thrown at Trump (and others) pre-J6.

10. As the election approached, senior executives – perhaps under pressure from federal agencies, with whom they met more as time progressed – increasingly struggled with rules, and began to speak of “bios” as pretexts to do what the’d likely have done anyway.

11. After J6 Internal Slacks show Twitter execs. getting a kick out of intensified relationships with federal agencies. Here’s Trust and Safety head Yoel Roth, lamenting a lack of “generic enough” calendar descriptions to concealing his “very interesting” meeting partners.

12. These initial reports are based on searches for docs linked to prominent execs, whose names are already public. They include Roth, former trust and policy chief Vijaya Gadde, and recently plank-walked Deputy General Counsel (and former top FBI lawyer) Jim Baker.

13. One particular slack channel offers an unique window into the evolving thinking of top officials in late 2020 and early 2021.

14. On October 8th 2020, executives opened a channel called “us2020_xfn_enforcement”

Through J6, this would be home for discussions about election-related removals, especially ones that involved “high profile” accounts (often called “VITs” or “Very Important Tweeters”)

15. There was at least some tension between safety operations- a larger department whose staffers used a more rules-based process for addressing issues like porn, scams, and threats – and a smaller more powerful cadre of senior policy execs like Roth and Gadde.

16. The latter group were a high-speed Supreme Court of moderation, issuing content rulings on the fly, often in minutes and based on guesses, gut calls, even Google searches, even in cases involving the President.

17. During this time execs were also clearly liasing with federal enforcement and intelligence agencies about moderation of election related content. While were still at the start of reviewing the #TwitterFiles, were finding out more about these interactions every day.

18. Policy Director Nick Pickles is asked if they should say Twitter detects “misinformation” through “ML. human review, and **partnerships with outside experts?*” The employee asks, “I know that’s been a slippery process…not sure if you want our public explanation to hang on that.”

19. Pickles asked if they could “just say partnerships” after a pause he says, “e.g. not sure we’d describe the FBI/DHS as experts.

20. This post about the Hunter Biden laptop situation shows that Roth not only met weekly with the FBI and DHS, but with the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI):

21. Roth’s report to FBI/DHS/DNI is almost farcical in its self-flagellating tone: “We blocked the NYP story, then unblocked it (but said the opposite)..comms is angry, reporters think were idiots, in short FML”

22. was skipped.

23. Some of Roth’s later Slacks indicate his weekly confabs with federal law enforcement involved separate meetings. Here he ghosts the FBI and DHS, respectively, to go first to an “Aspen Institute Thing,” then take a call with Apple.

24. Here, the FBI sends reports about a pair of tweets, the second of which involves a former Tippecanoe County, Indiana Councilor and Republican named @JohnBasham claiming “Between 2% and 25% of Ballots by Mail are Being Rejected for Errors.”

25. The FBI-flagged tweet then got circulated in the enforcement Slack. Twitter cited Politifact to say the first story was “proven to be false” then noted the second was already deemed “no vio on numerous occasions.”

26. The group then decides to apply a “Learn how voting is safe and secure” label because one commentator says, “it’s totally normal to have a 2% error rate” Roth then gives the final go-ahead to the process initiated by the FBI.

 

27. Examining the entire election enforcement Slack, we didn’t see one reference to moderation requests from the Trump campaign, the Trump White House, or Republicans generally. We looked. They may exist: we were told they do. However, they were absent here.

The tweets the skipped to #32.

32. This inspires a long Slack that reads like an @TitaniaMcGrath parody. “I agree it’s a joke,” concedes a Twitter employee, “but he’s also literally admitting in a tweet a crime.”

33. Roth suggest moderation even in this absurd case could depend on whether or not the joke results in “confusion.” This seemingly silly case actually foreshadows serious later issues:

34. In the docs, execs often expand criteria to subjective issues like intent (yes, a video is authentic, but why was it shown?)

35. In another example, Twitter employees prepare to slap a “mail in voting is safe” warning label on a Trump tweet about a postal screwup in Ohio before realizing “the events took place,” which meant the tweet was “factually accurate”:

36. “VERY WELL DONE ON SPEED” Trump was being “visibly filtered” as late as a week before the election. Here, senior execs didn’t appear to have a particular violation, but still worked fast to make sure a fairly anodyne Trump tweet couldn’t be replied to, shared, or liked.”

37. A seemingly innocuous follow-up involved a tweet from actor @realJamesWoods, whose ubiquitous presence in argued-over Twitter data sets is already a #TwitterFiles in-joke.

38. After Woods angrily quote-tweeted about Trump’s warning label, Twitter staff – in a preview of what ended up happening after  J6- despaired of a reason for action, but resolved to “hit him hard on future vio.”

 

39. Here a label is applied to Georgia Republican congresswoman Jody Hice for saying “Say No to big tech censorship!” and, “Mailed ballots are more prone to fraud than in-person balloting…It’s just common sense.”

40. Twitter teams went easy on Ice on applying “soft intervention” with Roth worrying about a “wah wah censorship” optics backlash.

41. Meanwhile, there are multiple instances of involving pro-Biden tweets warning Trump “may try to steal the election” that got surfaces only to be approved by senior executives. This one they decide just “expresses concern that mailed ballots might not make it on time.”

42. “THATS UNDERSTANDABLE”: Even the hashtag #StealOurVotes – referencing a theory that a combo of Amy Coney Barrett and Trump will steal the election – is approved by Twitter Brass, because it’s “understandable” and a “reference to…a U.S. Supreme Court decision.

43. In this exchange, again unintentionally humorous, former Attorney General Eric Holder claimed the U.S. Postal Service was “deliberately crippled,” ostensibly by the Trump administration. He was initially hit with a generic warning label, but it was quickly taken off by Roth:

44. Later, in Nov 2020, Roth asked if staff had a “debunk moment” on the “Scytyl/Smartmatic vote-counting” stories, which his DHS contacts told him were a combination of “about 47” conspiracy theories.

45.

46.

47. However, in the end, the team had to use older, less aggressive labeling tools at least for that day, until the “L3 entities” went live the following morning.

48. The significance is that it shows that Twitter, in 2020, at least was deploying a vast range of visible and invisible tools to reign in Trump’s engagement, long before J6. The ban will come after other avenues are exhausted.

49. In Twitter docs execs frequently refer to bots e.g. “let’s put a bot on that.” A bot is just any automated heuristic moderation rule. It can be anything: every time a person in Brazil uses “green” and “blob” in the same sentence, action might be taken.

50. In this instance it appears moderators added a bot for a Trump claim made on Breitbart. The bot ends up becoming an automated tool invisibly watching both Trump and apparently, Breitbart (will add media ID to bot). Trump by J6 was quickly covered in bots.

51. There is no way to follow the frenzied exchanges among Twitter personnel from between January 6th and 8th without knowing the basics of the company’s vast lexicon of acronyms and Orwellian unwords.

52. To “bounce” an account is to put it in timeout, usually for a 12-hour review/cool-off.

53. Interstitial one of many nouns used as a verb in Twitterspeak means placing a physical label atop a tweet so it can’t be seen.

54. P11 has multiple meanings, one being “Public Interest Interstitial: ie covering label applied for “public interest” reasons. The post below also references “proactive V,” i.e. proactive visibility filtering.

55. This is all necessary background to J6. Before the riots, the company was engaged in an inherently insane/impossible project, trying to create an ever-expanding, ostensibly rational set of rules to regulate every conceivable speech situation that might arise between humans.

56. This project was preposterous yet its leaders were unable to see this, having become infected with groupthink, coming to believe – sincerely – that it was Twitters responsibility to control as mush as possible, what people could talk about, how often, and with whom.

57. The firm’s executives on day 1 of the January 6th crises at least tried to pay lip service to its dizzying array of rules. By day 2, they began wavering. By day 3 a million rules were reduced to one: what we say, goes.

RINO MI Board of Canvassers Members Mock Citizens Over Legal Request For Recount of 2022 Election: “I personally think this is a gigantic waste of time” [VIDEO]

In late April, Tony Daunt, who has close ties to Trump’s former Sec. of Education, and top MI GOP donor Betsy DeVos, who almost immediately after Jan. 6, 2021, blamed President Trump for what appears to have been an FBI-led, fake insurrection, resigned from the MI GOP State Committee. The so-called “Republican,” Tony Daunt, talked to the Trump-hating New York Times about his letter of resignation to a new, grassroots MI GOP that has turned its back on RINOs like him. The New York Times excitedly shared that in his letter, Mr. Daunt called President Trump “a deranged narcissist.”

“Rather than distancing themselves from this undisciplined loser,” Mr. Daunt wrote in his resignation letter, “far too many Republican ‘leaders’ have decided that encouraging his delusional lies — and, even worse — cynically appeasing him despite knowing they are lies, is the easiest path to ensuring their continued hold on power, general election consequences be damned.

“Whether it’s misguided true belief, cynical cowardice, or just plain old grift and avarice,” Mr. Daunt continued in the letter, which was addressed to a Republican colleague, “it’s a losing strategy, and I cannot serve on the governing board of a party that’s too stupid to see that.”

Mr. Daunt was appointed to the MI Board of Canvassers by Michigan’s far-left Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer following the 2020 election. Daunt, who has made no secret about his feelings for anyone who supports President Trump, presided over a meeting on Monday afternoon where board members, including Michigan’s dirty SOS Jocelyn Benson’s Director of the Bureau of Elections Jonathan Brater, would decide if a recount in specific districts across the state of on MI Proposal 2 (the ability to make it easier steal the vote) and 3 (abortion up to 9 months and teen sex change without parental consent) would be allowed.

Much like in the 2018 election, where Democrats and Michigan’s young voters came to the polls in large numbers to support a proposal that would legalize marijuana in the state of Michigan, giving MI citizens four years of the far-left Governor Gretchen Whitmer, the Soros-funded SOS Jocelyn Benson, and Michigan’s lawless AG Dana Nessel; both radical proposals that appeared on the 2022 ballot helped to ensure the re-election of all three of the unpopular Democrats.

The arrogant RINO Tony Daunt sat next to the other RINO appointed to the MI Board of Canvassers by Gov. Whitmer, Richard Housekamp. When asked by MLive about his position on elections, the 66-year-old Housekamp explained that as a member of the MI Board of Canvassers, “The transparency and I think the integrity of the election process is sacred to democracy.” But curiously, when Mr. Housekamp had the opportunity to advocate for transparency, he instead chose to mock those who are fighting for election transparency in Michigan.

Mr. Housekamp went out of his way to mock the recount and those fighting for election integrity and against voter fraud and loopholes that make voter fraud possible (like MI Prop 2 that was recently passed in the November 2022 election) in the state of Michigan and around the country.

“The country right now, the state of Michigan, continues to talk about fraud. There is no fraud. We’ve seen a clean election. We’ve seen a really clean election. And right now, we have a request for a recount that won’t go anywhere. We keep walking down this road where we’re at war with each other, but there’s the allegations of fraud that don’t exist. I would almost rather say if we can’t shut this down if we have to go through with this—-and to follow through with what you’ve said, Steve (the Democrat lawyer for Prop 3 that would allow a baby to be killed in the womb up to 9 months, that’s trying to stop the recount) that we have really iron guidelines…”

Mr. Daunt was even more outspoken when it came to his beliefs that even though Michigan citizens have the right, by law, to ask for a recount, he finds it to be a “gigantic waste of time.”

“I personally think this is a gigantic waste of time. I think it is poisonous to our system. Having this argument is exhausting. It’s been two years, and we continue to have this debate.” Daunt added that he has no option but to approve it based on MI election law. “However, the law doesn’t provide us a remedy for dismissing this. They have a path for them to file for a recount.”

This is the sorry state of affairs in Michigan. Republicans who’ve been in charge of the MI Legislature for four decades continue to cave to Democrats, and RINOs like Tony Daunt are placed in positions of power like the Chair of the MI Board of Canvassers, where they call the shots about whether or not an election was free or fair.

Meanwhile, videos like the one made possible by Gateway Pundit and MC4EI, one of the Independent election integrity groups fighting for a recount, have been totally ignored by cowards like Tony Daunt, who would much prefer to make a mockery out of those who reveal voter fraud in plain sight than consider Michigan elections that are run by the crooked, Soros-funded SOS Jocelyn Benson are in serious trouble.

Trump-Hating NBC Hack “Reporter” Is Accused Of Fraudulently Voting In FL Election

Yamiche Alcindor, a reporter for NBC who claims to occupy a mostly politically neutral position at PBS and the NBC, where she is a contributor, has a history of left-wing activism and advocacy.

Alcindor, according to her own public statements, moved to Washington D.C in 2017 to cover the Trump administration’s economic policies and how he affected people’s ‘everyday lives’.

Still, records show that she voted in Florida during the 2022 election.

The American Accountability Foundation, a conservative-leaning organization whose efforts focus on holding members of the media and Biden administration officials accountable, lodged a complaint against Alcindor for voting outside of her legally established residence.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has made election integrity a top priority since being elected in 2018.

The Governor created an election integrity task force to prevent election fraud in the state and has taken common-sense measures to ensure that out-of-state residents cannot vote.

The Federalist Reports–

Gov. DeSantis (R)

Yamiche Alcindor, a left-wing activist now masquerading as an independent Washington correspondent for NBC News, voted illegally in Florida, according to a complaint filed by the American Accountability Foundation.

Public records show Alcindor is an active registered voter in Broward County, Florida. According to the complaint, state residency requirements mandate voters’ intention of making Florida their permanent home. Alcindor, however, lives in Washington D.C. with her husband, Nathaniel Cline, with little evidence to show the beltway reporter plans to settle in the Sunshine State.

AAF highlighted a 2017 tweet in its complaint to Florida election officials last week demanding an investigation.

“Some news,” Alcindor wrote days before President Donald Trump’s inauguration. “I moved to DC this week to cover social safety net issues and how Trump’s administration impacts everyday people’s lives.”

Thomas Jones, the president of the American Accountability Foundation, wrote in the group’s complaint the 2017 post made clear a change in permanent residence.

JUST IN: FBI Met With Big Tech Each Week Before 2020 Elections, Here’s What You Should Know [VIDEO]

On Tuesday, lawyers from the office of Missouri’s Attorneys General Eric Schmitt and Louisiana Jeff Landry deposed FBI Supervisory Special Agent Elvis Chan as part of their lawsuit. The lawsuit against Biden’s administration accuses high-ranking officials of colluding with giant social media companies “under the guise of combating misinformation” to push through censorship.
Chan works in the FBI’s San Francisco bureau. He was questioned under oath by court order about his “critical role,” “coordinating with social-media platforms relating to censorship and suppression of speech on their platforms.”
Missouri AG Eric Schmitt tweeted,
“BREAKING: In our deposition of FBI agent Elvis Chan on Tuesday, we found that the FBI plays a big role in working with social media companies to censor speech – from weekly meetings with social media companies ahead of the 2020 election to ask for account takedowns.”

This is clearly both a violation of the First Amendment and election interference. Apparently, the meeting went from quarterly to monthly to weekly as the presidential election neared. Allegedly the FBI told social media companies to be aware that Russians could try operations to “hack and dump” or hack and leak.”
On Aug 26th, during an interview between Joe Rogan and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO said, “the FBI basically came to us,” telling Facebook to be “on high alert” regarding “a lot of Russian propaganda.” Zuckerberg noted the FBI said, “there’s about to be some kind of dump… that’s similar to that, so just be vigilant.”
Rogan asked Zuckerberg how they handle controversial stories. Zuckerberg then discussed how the FBI approached Facebook about the potential Russian propaganda over Hunter’s laptop. He went on to say people were still able to share the story, but the distribution of the story was decreased, limiting the number of viewers who could see it.
One Twitter user posted the surprising exchange between Zuckerberg and Rogan, saying, “Here I’ll do your research for you.”

 

Louisiana Federal Judge Terry A. Doughty ordered Chan’s deposition on Nov 14, writing,

“Chan had authority over cybersecurity issues for the FBI in the San Francisco, California region, which includes the headquarters of major social media platforms and played a critical role for the FBI in coordinating with social-media platforms related to censorship.” He continued, “Even if Chan played no role in the Hunter Biden laptop communication issue, he may have knowledge of who did, and his deposition is nonetheless warranted,” the judge said. “If Chan played no role in the suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story, then such information will be made clear in his deposition.”

According to Fox News, more evidence of interference and censorship has been discovered during the investigation. AG Schmitt said that,

“Since filing our lawsuit, we’ve uncovered troves of discoveries that show a massive ‘censorship enterprise.’ Now, we’re deposing top government officials, and we’re one of the first to get a look under the hood — the information we’ve uncovered through those depositions has been shocking, to say the least. It’s clear from Tuesday’s deposition that the FBI has an extremely close role in working to censor freedom of speech.”

AG Schmitt tweeted, “Chan stated that the FBI regularly sent social media companies lists of URLs and social media accounts that should be taken down because they were disinformation from “malign foreign influence operations.” The FBI then inquired whether the platforms had taken down the content.”

BREAKING BOMBSHELL: Elon Musk Releases Details of How Twitter Suppressed Hunter Biden Laptop Story Before 2020 Election

Since taking over Twitter in October, Musk has promised to bring greater transparency to Twitter. He has said he will expose what happened with Twitter’s suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story. The New York Post’s account was strategically blocked and removed just weeks before the 2020 presidential election. Twitter went as far locking The New York Post out of it’s account over the story. At the time claiming it violated its “hacked materials” policy. Since then, former CEO Jack Dorsey and ex-safety chief Yoel Roth, have admitted the company made a mistake.

On Friday afternoon, Musk tweeted that he would be sharing “what really happened with the Hunter Biden story suppression by Twitter at 5 pm ET”

Shortly afterward, Musk posted, “This will be awesome” and “Will include live Q & A”

Musk has said that sharing the truth about big tech hiding the laptop story is necessary to rebuild public trust.

Here are the details of how Twitter intentionally suppressed the details of the Hunter Biden laptop story to affect the outcome of the 2020 election. Elon Musk published the thread created by “Griftopia” author Matt Taibbi only moments ago:

“Here we go!!”

1.”Thread: The Twitter Files”

2.”What you are about to read is the first installment in a series based upon thousands of internal documents obtained by sources at Twitter.”

3.”The Twitter files tell an incredible story from inside one of the world’s largest and most influential social media platforms. It is a Frankensteinian tale of a human-built mechanism grown out the control of its designer.”

4. “Twitter in its conception was a brilliant tool for enabling instant mass communication, making a true real-time global conversation possible for the first time.”

5. “In an early conception, Twitter more than lived up to its mission statement, giving people “the power to create and share ideas and information instantly, without barriers.”

6. “As time progressed, however, the company was slowly forced to add those barriers. Some of the first tools for controlling speech were designed to combat the likes of spam and financial fraudsters.”

7. “Slowly, over time, Twitter staff and executives began to find more and more uses for these tools. Outsiders began petitioning the company to manipulate speech as well: first a little, then more often, then constantly.”

8. “By 2020, requests from connected actors to delete tweets were routine. One executive would write to another: “More to review from the Biden team.” The reply would come back: “Handled.”

9. “Celebrities and unknowns alike could be reviewed or removed at the behest of a political party:”

10. “Both parties had access to these tools. For instance, in 2020 requests from both the Trump White House and the Biden campaign were received and honored. However:

11. “This system wasn’t balanced. It was based on contacts. Because Twitter was and is overwhelmingly staffed by people of one political orientation, there were more channels, more ways to complain, open to the left (well, Democrats) than the right.

12. “The resulting slant in content moderation decisions is visible in the documents you’re about to read. However, it’s also the assessment of multiple current and former high-level executives.”

“Okay there was more throat-clearing about the process, but screw it, let’s jump forward.”

The tweets then skipped 13,14, and 15 and jumped forward to #16 & #17:

16. “The Twitter Files, Part One: How and Why Twitter Blocked the Hunter Biden Laptop Story”

17. “On October 14, 2020, the New York Post published BIDEN SECRET EMAILS, and expose based on the contents of Hunter Biden’s abandoned laptop:”

18. “Twitter took extraordinary steps to suppress the story, removing links and posting warnings that it may be “unsafe.” They even blocked its transmission via direct message a tool hitherto reserved for extreme cases, e.g. child pornography.”

19. White House spokeswoman Kaleigh McEnany was locked out of her account for tweeting about the story, prompting a furious letter from Trump campaign staffer Mike Hahn, who seethed: “At least pretend to care for the next 20 days.”

20.This led public policy executive Caroline Strom to send out a polite WTF query. Several employees noted that there was tension between the comms/policy teams, who had little/less control over moderation, and the safety/trust teams:

21. Strom’s note returned the answer that the laptop story had been removed for violation of the company’s “hacked materials” policy: web.archive.org/web/2019071714

22. Although several sources recalled hearing about a “general” warning from federal law enforcement that summer about possible foreign hacks, there’s no evidence – that I’ve seen – of any government involvement in the laptop story. In fact, that might have been the problem…

23. The decision was made at the highest levels of the company, but without the knowledge of CEO Jack Dorsey, with former head of legal, policy and trust Vijaya Gadde playing a key role.

24. “They just freelanced it,” is how one former employee characterized the decision. “Hacking was the excuse, but within a few hours, pretty much everyone realized that wasn’t going to hold. But no one had the guts to reverse it.”

25.You can see the confusion in the following lengthy exchange, which ends up including Gadde and former Trust and safety chief Yoel Roth. Comms official Trenton Kennedy writes, “I’m struggling to understand the policy basis for marking this as unsafe”:

26. By this point “everyone knew this was fucked,” said one former employee, but the response was essentially to err on the side of… continuing to err.

27. Former VP of Global Comms Brandon Borrman asks, “Can we truthfully claim that this is part of the policy?”

28. To which former Deputy General Counsel Jim Baker again seems to advise staying the non-course, because “caution is warranted”:
29. A fundamental problem with tech companies and content moderation: many people in charge of speech know/care little about speech, and have to be told the basics by outsiders. To wit:

30. In one humorous exchange on day 1, Democratic congressman Ro Khanna reaches out to Gadde to gently suggest she hop on the phone to talk about the “backlash re speech.” Khanna was the only Democratic official I could find in the files who expressed concern.

Gadde replies quickly, immediately diving into the weeds of Twitter policy, unaware Khanna is more worried about the Bill of Rights:

32.Khanna tries to reroute the conversation to the First Amendment, mention of which is generally hard to find in the files:

33.Within a day, head of Public Policy Lauren Culbertson receives a ghastly letter/report from Carl Szabo of the research firm NetChoice, which had already polled 12 members of congress – 9 Rs and 3 Democrats, from “the House Judiciary Committee to Rep. Judy Chu’s office.”

35.Szabo reports to Twitter that some Hill figures are characterizing the laptop story as “tech’s Access Hollywood moment”:

36.Twitter files continued: “THE FIRST AMENDMENT ISN’T ABSOLUTE” Szabo’s letter contains chilling passages relaying Democratic lawmakers’ attitudes. They want “more” moderation, and as for the Bill of Rights, it’s “not absolute”

In what appears to be Taibbi’s final tweet, he claims the former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey had no knowledge of the the censorship of Hunter’s laptop:

An amazing subplot of the Twitter/Hunter Biden laptop affair was how much was done without the knowledge of CEO Jack Dorsey, and how long it took for the situation to get “unfucked” (as one ex-employee put it) even after Dorsey jumped in.

THE JIG IS UP! The Secret Sauce Behind How They Steal Elections Has FINALLY Been Revealed...It’s All HERE!

A guest post by the brilliant Jay Valentine of Omega4America and JayValentine.com. Jay’s article was originally published in the American Thinker. 100 Percent Fed Up has been given permission to publish Jay’s breathtaking article in its entirety.

Here’s How They Did it: Real-time Election Fraud

Database latency — a geeky term, but that’s how they did it!

A policeman pulls over a speeder. The police computer reports that three hours ago, a similar vehicle and person held up a liquor store — so the police are on alert.

No database latency.

County election managers change the zip code of 31,000 voters on September 3. Ballots go out that week. Those 31,000 are undeliverable. Someone collects those valid ballots. On September 15th, those addresses are quietly changed back.

The National Change of Address Database (NCOA) will not pick up those address changes. They didn’t happen because there is no history.

The 31,000 citizens were getting their mail just fine — except for ballots. Ballot addresses were driven by the county mail-in ballot database — the one that was changed, then changed back.

Many states send ballots to everyone; the recipient is none the wiser that they never received a mail-in ballot. They may vote in person. Oops! “You already voted!” Ever heard that?

Welcome to database latency.

Our bad guy pals know they can change voter rolls, take an action, then change them back. Who would know?

A thousand voters are changed from inactive, voted, then changed back, and how would you ever know? With lots of complex footwork, you could eventually tell from their voter history file — months after the election.

Michigan’s dirty, Soros-funded Democrat SOS Jocelyn Benson fought diligently to eliminate voter ID and to make mail-in ballots and no excuse absentee voting permanent in the state of MI.

What are you going to do about it? Reverse the election?

The new and current “ballot gathering strategy” mandated by the almost universal mail-in ballots adds pretty cool database games — exploiting database latency.

Database latency, as you likely gathered, is when current reality lags the underlying record. We all experience it in our electronics-driven society.

The ballot-gathering scammers know about latency — it’s their ground game!

To Republicans, election engineering is civics. To Democrats, it’s business — and they are great at it!

They know the Republicans have hundreds of diligent election sleuths working in basements and dining room tables checking voter rolls for the dead and the fakes.

They know those people rely on NCOA and Melissa and other highly latent services as their baseline. If someone moved, it shows up in NCOA — two months later.

A real voter moved. They want to keep getting their St. Jude’s donation cards. They fill in their NCOA form to get mail forwarded to their new address. Our fraud detectives find this person — and maybe someone voted for them. Cross out one phantom!

Our bad guys are happy to give up a few retail-level ballots to hide the wholesale-level ballot-gathering apparatus. They count on it.

Here’s the fraud equation taking place across the country:

  • Count the in-person votes on election day.
  • Count the early, in-person votes.
  • Shut down the system (Atlanta water leak, Maricopa County, everything).
  • Bring in undeliverable ballots gathered when you changed voters’ names, addresses, or zip codes then changed them back.
  • Determine the votes you need to win.  Press the “WIN” button.
  • Wait for the Republicans to file a lawsuit months later.

Floating ballots are the lifeblood Democrats need to win — and win they do.

Ballot gatherers know Republicans use dumb technology — relational databases, SQL, NCOA, Melissa, all non-real-time, highly latent systems.

Bad guys are happy to watch Republicans waste time finding ones and twos while the real action takes place by the thousands — invisible to these batch, latency-prone systems.

The RNC helps with its antiquated “big data” system, equally oblivious to anything that happens within a month.

Want to run for office? It’s uglier.

A latency-prone database, like the RNC’s, to pick one, tells you how your voter was prone to vote over the last 10 election cycles. She “leans” Republican.

Unfortunately, it does not tell you that while she leaned Republican for years, she donated, this week, to Greenpeace, enraged at the Dollar Store being built across her street. Real-time means something: what is going on here, now, today.

Your Democrat opponent knows that — she is real-time, you aren’t; you are RNC.

You, dear candidate, are using the RNC latency database to get out the vote for your opponent — because you are “latent.”

We explain this at Omega4America.com

Let’s take a short walk into the future of how we fight ballot gathering with technology — just a fun little peek.

We know an election commission is going to do anything possible to make the Democrat win. Wisconsin Election Commission, Arizona’s Maricopa County, seven states in 2016, for instance.

Rather than wasting time on batch NCOA, we get a daily copy of the election roll. That’s expensive! The list in Wisconsin is $12,000! But did you know your Democrat friends bought it 28 times before the 2016 election?

What is a governorship worth? How much does a contested Senate seat cost? Maybe $50 million? What is a presidential campaign worth?

Why would anyone spend $50 million on a Senate seat and let the other side own the election rolls? That is a question Ronna McDaniel may be asked by Mike Lindell!

We take that election roll, with perhaps 15 million voters, Florida, for instance, or Texas — compare every voter against every other voter and address, down to the cell level, and see any differences — every day!

What do we find?

In a real-life example, this month, we found a county that changed 31,500 zip codes, yet the voter remained at the same address. Curious?

That means the voter did not change their address, continued to receive all their mail, except one item — a ballot sent from a voter commission.

Our teams in Wisconsin and Florida are discovering this scam by the truckload — do not email me that it is not real! And NCOA and Melissa? They are totally blind to this — because the addresses are changed back!

The Fractal team spent the last 20 months, with guidance from Mike Lindell, encouragement from the great Sheriff David Clarke, and over a dozen election integrity teams advancing voter integrity analysis from the ancient, batch, latent to the modern, current real-time.

We learned the core strategy to fight ballot-gathering fraud in real time analysis of voter rolls and cast ballots. It is also real-time analysis of ballot collection points — like large apartment complexes and dorms where ballots gather because there is not an apartment number.

The question now is whether Republicans want to start leading with technology or continue to spend millions on “big data” “data driven” batch buzzwords.

We are about to find out.

WOW! Brave Flint, MI. Residents Cite Examples of Voter Fraud and Multiple Unbalanced Precincts in Nov. Election...Ask MI Board of Canvassers Why They Would Certify Election When Flint Election Officials Wouldn’t? [VIDEO]

On Monday, the MI Board of Canvassers, which is made up of an equal number of Democrats and Republicans and led by Michigan’s Director of the Bureau of Elections, Jonathan Brater, who works under the dishonest Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, unanimously voted to certify the November 2022 election, despite multiple examples of voter fraud and precincts that were out of balance.

On Sept. 6, Pure Integrity Michigan Elections and Attorney Erick Kaardal of the Thomas More Society sent Flint a Demand Letter. Either balance the skewed number of election inspectors from 92% Democrat/6% Republican to 50-50 or expect legal filings.

On Sep. 8, Inez Brown, Flint’s City Clerk of 25 years, resigned, effective Sep. 30.

Sudden resignations tend to raise eyebrows, so when NPR reported the imminent departure of a major city clerk, the move garnered wide-eyed surprise. “Inez Brown has been Flint’s city clerk for 25 years. But at Wednesday night’s city council meeting, Brown announced she would be stepping down at the end of the month.”

On Sept. 6, two days before giving her three-week notice, the clerk and a who’s-who list of Flint officials received a demand letter. Either balance the city’s skewed number of election inspectors from 92% Democrat and 6% Republican to 50-50 or brace for legal filings, stated the letter from Pure Integrity Michigan Elections and Attorney Erick Kaardal, Special Counsel for the Thomas More Society.

So, was the 25-year veteran clerk’s resignation a coincidence?

“I think not,” said Patrice Johnson, chair of PIME. “This is a huge win.”

Still, the clerk’s resignation raises questions as to how Flint will fill the vacancy. According to the NPR article, Flint has asked the Secretary of State to help with the November elections.

“How is it that Flint could have such a weak bench that no underlings can fill a departing clerk’s shoes?” Johnson asked.

Apparently, it didn’t matter if the crooked Flint City Clerk vacated her office (or not) because the precincts counting their ballots on November 8, 2022, still ended up being out of balance, as they are for almost every election. In Michigan, if the precincts are found to be out of balance, those precincts are unable to be used in a recount—how convenient.

Two Flint residents bravely took on the MI Board of Canvassers to demand they abstain from certifying the election based on multiple irregularities and questionable accounting of ballots. Neither one of the two residents are Republican; they are simply residents who are sick of watching their elections being run like a third-world country.

Arthur Woodson of Flint, MI, shocked viewers at the MI Board of Canvassers when he cited multiple cases of voter fraud he witnessed on Election Day, November 8, 2022. Woodson stated that he was representing his good friend Linda Lee Tarver and added that everything he said was available for them to watch on video.

They were trying to balance the books. They didn’t have a name with it. They ended up putting the name on the voter’s list to try to balance the book at the board of canvassers. Under Public Act 116 of 1954 MCL 168.932c: An inspector of election clerk or other officer or person having custody of any record election, election list of voters, affidavit, return, statement of votes, certificates, poll book, or any paper, document, or vote of any description which pursuant to this act is made, found, preserved, shall not willfully destroy, mutilate, deface, falsify, fraudulently remove, or fraudulently remove or erase any entry of all of those items in whole or in part or fraudulently make any entry, erase or alteration.

Anybody that do so is a felony!  Also, somebody voted that wasn’t registered in the state of Michigan! And they look through the what is it?—the QVF! And they can’t find this person—and this person had the same ballot number as the other person—143!

Also, please put all the absentee ballots in one book, which they have six books; five of them cannot be recounted because they didn’t sign. The county canvasser one says that he’s not signing off on this election because the election director says that she’s not signing off on it as far as the remarks.

If you had all this happening—and 90% of the absentees cannot be tabulated—or if they did have an issue, they couldn’t be recounted because the board of canvassers said they couldn’t open up the canisters because the seal only one person signed! So they couldn’t even see if the balance was correct and see if the tabulator was right or not. So, we have serious issues in Genesee County, and if the Election Director would not sign off on what they were asking her to sign off on— why would you? Why would you sign off on it if she noted it was fraud? It was reported to the county prosecutor in the State Police office. Why would you sign off on it if the Election Director wouldn’t sign off on what they were axing her to do?

Flint, MI, resident Michael Dean also called the certification of the November 2022 election into question, asking the MI Board of Canvassers how they expect young people like him to trust our elections if they continue to be out of balance and wrought with fraud.

Watch:

Here’s how Michigan’s dirty Soros-funded SOS Jocelyn Benson responded to the serious claims by minorities in Flint, MI, of whom she falsely claims to be a “champion.”

“Democracy has prevailed,” which is shorthand for Jocelyn Benson really saying—Another election has been stolen, and so far, no one has been prosecuted or charged!

Why do Michigan residents look the other way when they know fraud is king in heavily populated Democrat-majority areas?

WATCH: Two Members of Mohave Co. AZ Board of Supervisors Say They Were Threatened With Arrest and Felony Charges If They Didn’t Certify Election

During the certification process, two members of the Mohave County, AZ Board of Supervisors admitted they were voting “‘Aye,’ under duress,” adding, “I found out today that I have no choice but to vote ‘aye,’ or I’ll be arrested and charged with a felony,” Ron Gould of the Mohave Board of Supervisors said he was told.  “I don’t think that is what our Founding Fathers had in mind when they eased the Democratic process to elect our leaders, our form of self-government. And I find that very disheartening,” he added.

Watch:

Gould appeared on Steve Bannon’s War Room to discuss how he felt threatened to certify the election:

Gould was not alone in certifying the election results “under duress.” Fellow board supervisor Hildy Angius also claimed she would face legal action for not certifying the result and further expressed a desire to avoid disenfranchising voters. She did, however, express optimism about her own county’s results, but cited issues in Maricopa County among her misgivings.

Americans are rightfully angry about this ridiculous process that doesn’t allow for proper investigations into potential, or in the case of Arizona, certain, voter fraud.

Here are just a few of the comments found below this video on Twitter.

  • Wow, he said under duress and said he would be arrested? I don’t know why every American in the United States is not pissed off about this.

What’s even the point of “certification” then?

  • “THESE are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.”

A shame Mr. Gould allowed himself to be bullied.

  • Our elections are Third World.

Kari Lake Vows To Keep Fighting, Files Lawsuit As County Boards Say They Are Being Forced To Certify Election Under Duress: Here’s What You Need To Know About What’s Happening In Arizona [VIDEO]

On Monday, Arizona counties were threateningly told they had to certify their elections despite ongoing investigations into election-day issues. County board members who delayed certification were intimidated with arrest and felony charges. Ron Gould of the Mohave County Board of Supervisors said Mojave county was certified under duress. “I found out today that I have no choice but to vote “Aye” or I will be arrested and charged with a felony.”

Kari Lake, Arizona’s Republican Governor candidate, spoke out against the coercion, saying, “This isn’t the America you and I grew up in, folks.”
Yavapai County was also threatened to certify under duress. “The entire Board of Supervisors, with one Democrat exception, expressed a belief the election had serious errors, but were told by the County Attorney, Deputy Attorney, and County Administrator they MUST certify today or face Class 6 felony charges.”

 

In Maricopa County, which may be the epicenter of election issues, investigative reporter and founder of Frontline America, Ben Bergquam, joined poll workers and grassroots citizens to protest the election certification. Grassroots members waited in long lines to testify, singing the national anthem in unison. Bergquam, along with Gateway Pundit’s Jordan Conradson, were denied media access to the election office.

Bergquam spoke before the County board and warned against certifying, saying,

“My message to the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors and the County Elections Officials on their vote to certify the 2022 elections! The only thing they’ll be certifying is their corruption!”

Lake posted a detailed overview of Arizona’s election problems, highlighting Maricopa county and discussing her intent to continue fighting for a fair election, despite the decision to certify the botched election.

Lake said, “Arizona, it’s Kari Lake, and I wanted to update you on what’s happening in our fight against Arizona’s sham elections and those who run them. For starters, I want you to know that I am firmly in this fight with you. Maricopa County just couldn’t wait to certify their botched election, the botched election where half of Election Day voting centers were inoperable, the botched election where Election Day printers caused mayhem across the county, the botched election where Arizonans were expected to wait in line two, three, four, even five hours simply to exercise their sacred right to vote. Arizonans were told to throw their vote into a drawer, where it might ultimately end up in a plastic bin or a trash bag. Maricopa County, where it took two weeks to count, is the poster child for broken, botched elections. But, if you bring up any of these issues, you are labeled an election denier or a conspiracy theorist.

They don’t want us talking about our shoddy elections under any circumstances. They shut us down and made us fear exercising our freedom of speech, and they canceled anyone who questioned past elections. Because of that, many Americans did not speak out, and nothing was done to shore up elections. And now, we are paying the price again. Arizona, America, if we do not stand up and speak up right now about the most dishonest elections in the history of Arizona, I truly fear for our future. Our sacred vote is supposed to be the great equalizer of the people. And right now, our vote has been trampled upon. We must work hard right now to save it. This is our last chance. Those of you who are speaking out about what happened on November 8, those who testified before the corrupt Board of Supervisors, thank you, and God bless each of you. I am with you.

Here’s what I’m busy working on. I’m working with a team of patriotic, talented lawyers on a legal case to challenge the botched elections. My team and I realize how important this case is and what is at stake. We will file this case in accordance with Arizona state law. And you will want to stay tuned for this one. Trust me.”

Rep Paul Gosar Calls For Maricopa County Mid-Term Election Re-Do After 30% of Tabulation Machines Were Inoperable...Over 62% of Tabulators Reportedly Had “Material problems”

Almost one week after the Nov. 8th election, (that by all indications should have been a shoe-in for GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake), AZ Democrat SOS Katie Hobbs was declared the winner of the governor’s race. The race was lost for Lake in the heavily populated Republican Maricopa County where according to Uplift Data tracking service, Republicans had 52.7%  of the vote on Election Day, while Democrats had 16.6% of the vote.

AZ GOP Attonrey General candidate Abe Hamadeh, who was also expected to win his race, is now suing election officials across the state of Arizona, alleging that “incompetence and mismanagement” caused “pervasive errors” in the midterm elections.

Six brave election observers gave stunning eye-witness testimony on election day in Maricopa County:

US Rep. Paul Gosar, DDS (R-AZ) is now calling for a “redo” of  the election in Maricopa County, citing “30% of the tabulation machines” that were “inoperable,” and “2 hours long” lines that were created as a result of the chaos created inside the polling places where mostly Republican voters were voting in person.

According to Just the News – 11 roving attorneys working on behalf of the RNC are now reporting that 72 of the 115 (62.6%) voting centers “had material problems with the tabulators not being able to tabulate ballots, causing voters to either deposit their ballots into box #3, spoil their ballots and re-vote, or get frustrated and leave the vote center without voting,” Sonnenklar reported.

Sonneker, who was a roving attorney during the mid-term “The strong consensus regarding why the tabulators would not read certain ballots was that those ballots, in particular the bar codes on the side of the paper, were not printing dark enough for the tabulators to read them,” Sonnenklar wrote.

At one vote center, Sonnenklar “witnessed several voters spoil two ballots” when the tabulators wouldn’t scan them. The time it took voters to spoil ballots, get new ballots, and vote again was in addition to the 1-2 hours many of them had to wait in line to get their initial ballot, he reported.

Sen Ted Cruz Fights Against Democrat Bill Allowing Illegal Immigrants to Vote in Elections

Texas Senator Ted Cruz (R) recently introduced a new bill that would prohibit the Washington D.C. Council from using federal funds to allow noncitizens, including illegal immigrants, to vote in elections.

Last month, the D.C. City Council voted to advance a bill that would let non-citizens vote in local elections, the only requirement being that they have resided in D.C. for at least 30 days. The bill has been sent to Mayor Muriel Bowser for approval. In the event that Bowser signs the bill into law, Cruz has also announced his plans to introduce a Congressional Review Act resolution that would overturn the measure.

Commenting on the bill, Cruz said, “Voting is a distinct right and privilege that American citizens enjoy in the United States. It is a responsibility, not to be treated lightly, and it must be protected.”

“Voters decide not only who will lead our country, our cities and communities, but also how our tax dollars should be spent and what policies we should adopt,” added Cruz. “Even the Washington Post agrees that non-citizen voting is a terrible idea. Allowing non-citizens and illegal immigrants to vote in our elections opens our country up to foreign influence, and allows those who are openly violating U.S. law or even working for hostile foreign governments to take advantage and direct our resources against our will.”

Cruz referenced the Washington Post in his comments because, last month, the Post called the controversial bill a “bad idea,” suggesting it could impact Democratic candidates in the midterm elections.

Also fighting against the council’s initiative is the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). RJ Hauman, FAIR’s head of government relations and communications, said, “The actions of the D.C. city council and a mayor who is unlikely to veto are the next and most damaging steps in an ongoing effort to erase any distinction between American citizens and noncitizens.”

Last month, Arkansas Senator Tom Cotton (R) also introduced a resolution in Congress to block D.C.’s bill. Cotton said, “Allowing illegal immigrants to vote is an insult to every voter in America. Every single Democrat should be on the record about whether they support this instance policy.”

D.C. councilmembers have also argued their perspective, saying that all residents regardless of citizenship status, should be permitted to vote in their community’s elections.

Democratic Councilmember Charles Allen said, “Our immigrant neighbors of all statuses participate, contribute, and care about our community and our city. They, like all D.C. residents, deserve a right to have a say in their government.”

“They raise families here, contribute to their community, they run businesses that people depend on, and they pay taxes that we decide how to spend,” continued Allen. “Yet, they have no ability to elect local leaders that make decisions about their bodies, their businesses, and their tax dollars.”

FINALLY! AZ Asst. AG With Election Integrity Unit DEMANDS Maricopa Co Account For Widespread Ballot Tabulation, Printer Issues, Including “Door 3” Nightmare Voters Experienced During 2022 Election [VIDEO]

AZ GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake went into Election Day on Nov. 8, 2022, with a commanding lead in the polls. With the wind at her back, it appeared to be a foregone conclusion that she would defeat Arizona’s dirty Sec. of State, Katie Hobbs, who was so afraid of Lake’s rising popularity in the state that she refused to debate her.

But SIX days after the election, and after hundreds of thousands of ballots mysteriously appeared for Katie Hobbs, the dirty Democrat SOS was declared the “winner of the AZ governor’s race.

2.5 million ballots were cast in Arizona. More than 1.5 million were cast in Arizona’s Maricopa County, which was in the spotlight in 2020 after many residents in Arizona believed was the epicenter for stealing the vote in 2020.

Here’s a SHOCKING look at a precinct in Anthem, AZ, which is part of Maricopa County, on Election Day.

Republican voters showed up heavily on Election Day.

Every single poll had GOP candidates Kari Lake (governor), Abraham Hamadeh (AG) ahead, with Blake Masters (US Senate) and Mark Finchem (SOS) in a dead heat,

Poll observers and election workers have been very vocal about serious Election Day issues and about their concerns about the accuracy and honesty of Arizona’s elections results

Based on their experiences, 85% of the poll observers and election workers in Maricopa County are “not at all confident” about the outcome of the election

95% of respondents said their biggest concern with the election process was the “voting technology”

Observers reported “chaos” at multiple voting centers caused by printer and tabulator malfunctions, all day, contradicting statements by Gates and Richer that the problems had been ‘solved’.

Volunteer Attorneys reported “findings [that] directly contradict the statements of County election officials that (1) printer/tabulator issues were limited to only 70 of the 223 vote centers, (2) the printer/tabulator problems were resolved as of 3:00 p.m., and (3) the printer/tabulator issues were insignificant in the entire scheme of the election. “

On Saturday, AZ Assistant Attorney General Jennifer Wright of the Elections Integrity Unit took a step in the right direction when she sent a letter to Maricopa County officials demanding they explain the widespread ballot tabulation and ballot printer problems seen during the general election on Nov. 8.

“Arizonans deserve a full report and accounting of the myriad problems that occurred in relation to Maricopa County’s administration of the 2022 General Election.”  

“Based on sworn complaints submitted by election workers employed by Maricopa County, the BOD printers were tested on Monday, November 7 without any apparent problems,” Wright wrote.

Western Journal reports – Among the most troubling issues raised in the letter directed to Thomas Liddy with the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office was the apparent co-mingling of ballots in black duffle bags in at least one polling location, which were successfully run through the on-site tabulators with those put in “Door 3” to be sent to the Election Department’s downtown Phoenix tabulation center because they could not be read.

WATCH the incredible testimony of a poll observer who explains the incredible “Door 3” issue and other issues related to the additonal issues related to tabulators, long lines and voters who were not told to stay in line.

AZ SOS candidate Mark Finchem (R) is encouraging residents to keep up the fight to uncover voter fraud in his state on Election Day and surrounding Election Day 2022:

“The Elections Integrity Unit (“Unit”) of the Arizona Attorney General’s Office (“AGO”) has received hundreds of complaints since Election Day pertaining to issues related to the administration of the 2022 General Election in Maricopa County,” Wright opened her letter.

Here is a video compilation of six brave individuals who provided testimony about what they witnessed on Election Day 2022 in various precincts in Maricopa County where they worked:

“These complaints go beyond pure speculation, but include first-hand witness accounts that raise concerns regarding Maricopa’s lawful compliance with Arizona election law,” she continued.

Here is a partial copy of her letter:

Wright wrote that statements made by Maricopa Board of Supervisors Chairman Bill Gates and County Recorder Stephen Richer, along with other official communications from the county appear to confirm potential election law violations.

Wright recounted that based on information provided by the county at least 60 polling locations’ ballot on-demand printers were configured improperly, leading to the inability of the tabulators to read the ballots.

Ballots are printed on demand because voters are able to check in at any location in Maricopa County, which includes multiple congressional, state and local districts.

So far, this is the first time an attorney general’s office has stepped up and demanded answers for corrupt elections in any of the swing states where elections have been reportedly stolen.

Brazilians Fight Back! Protests Over Stolen Election Grow As Millions Take To The Streets...Leftist Supreme Court Authorizes Seizing Accounts

Farmers and truckers have joined the fight in Brazil to protest the stolen elections. Like the trucker protests in the US and Canada, reports say Brazilian truckers are honking horns and blocking highways as they join election protests that began at the end of October.

 

Truckers in Brazil are freedom-loving patriots protesting the attempt by CCP-owned communist and embezzler Lula da Silva to steal the presidency from President Jair Bolsonaro. Bolsonaro is well-loved by the Brazilians and called for the protest to be carried out peacefully and lawfully. He also was a massive supporter of the trucking industry and found ways to keep diesel costs low.

According to the Gateway Pundit, Brazil has a corrupt Supreme Court that is seizing bank accounts, issuing fines to farmers, truckers, and banks, and threatening to take children brought to the protest from their parents.

John Rich tells America to wake up. First, Trudeau froze the bank accounts of protesters; now Brazil is doing it, too…if you don’t think it can happen in the USA, you’re not paying attention!

So why is the media ignoring the vast protests taking place? Reports are saying that 10’s of millions of people are in the streets in what may be the largest demonstration in the world since Communism’s end in 1989.

Patriots were restricted from wearing yellow t-shirts or carrying the Brazilian flag by a CEO that administrates shopping centers and voiced his support for the left. So large numbers filled a mall, sang, wore yellow tee shirts, and helped display a massive flag.

BREAKING: Nancy Pelosi Announces She Will NOT Seek Re-Election as Democratic Leader of the House [VIDEO]

On Thursday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced that she will not be seeking reelection as the Democratic leader of the House. 82-year-old Pelosi has led the House Democrats for 19 years, becoming the first woman to serve as Speaker of the House in 2007. She has served in Congress for 35 years and she will continue representing San Francisco in the House.

In a speech on the House floor, Pelosi said, “There is no greater official honor for me than to stand on this floor and to speak for the people of San Francisco. This I will continue to do as a member of the House, speaking for the people of San Francisco, serving the great state of California, and defending our Constitution.”

She continued,

“With great confidence in our caucus, I will not seek re-election to democratic leadership in the next Congress. For me, the hour has come for a new generation to lead the Democratic caucus that I so deeply respect, and I’m grateful that so many are ready and willing to shoulder this awesome responsibility.”

Pelosi, a radical abortion activist who insists she is “very Catholic” also quoted scripture in her speech. She spoke about “babies” and the “children” of the future, and went on about “life’s blessings.”

In her farewell speech, Pelosi reminisced on the presidents she has served under, but intentionally left out Donald Trump.

She said, “I have enjoyed working with three presidents, achieving historic investments in clean energy with President George Bush, transformative health care reform with President Barack Obama, and forging the future – from infrastructure to health care to climate action – with President Joe Biden.”

The feeling is mutual, however, with Trump launching his 2024 presidential campaign on Tuesday where he told his cheering supporters that Pelosi had been “fired” by voters.

Earlier this month, rumors swirled about Pelosi stepping down when the GOP takes control of the House, and her daughter, Christine Pelosi, has already been floated as a viable option to replace Nancy.

Christine is a left-wing activist and Democratic political strategist who has served as the Women’s Caucus Chair of the California Democratic Party and as an Assistant District Attorney in San Francisco.

She would be the third generation of the Pelosi family to serve in Congress.

It is anticipated that House Democrats will select their next leader on November 30.

Democrat DA Orders Investigation Into Texas Midterm Election Issues, Receives Backlash From Own Party For Supporting “Election Deniers”

A Democrat District Attorney in Texas has requested that the Texas Department of Public Safety (TDPS) investigate her county’s midterm election after voters complained of delayed polling location openings, ballot shortages, staffing shortages, and other problems on Election Day.

On Monday, Kim Ogg, Harris County’s Democrat District Attorney, sent a letter to TDPS Executive Director Steven McGraw asking for him to investigate potential criminal conduct that occurred during the elections.

Ogg wrote, “The Harris County District Attorney’s Office received a referral from the Secretary of State concerning alleged irregularities with the latest Harris County elections that potentially may include criminal conduct. Please consider this my official request to engage the Texas rangers to assist my office in conducting the investigation into these allegations.”

In a later statement, Ogg said, “Free and fair elections are the bedrock of our democracy. When we get credible complaints of election irregularities, we are statutorily required to investigate. That’s why we’ve called for the assistance of the Texas Rangers.”

“The results of their investigation will be turned over to a Harris County grand jury,” she added, maintaining that it is her “duty as the elected District Attorney to follow the evidence and follow the law,” regardless of political affiliation.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) has also called for an investigation into the county’s elections. In a statement, Abbott said, “I’m calling on the Secretary of State, the Attorney General’s Office, and the Texas Rangers to initiate investigations into allegations of improprieties in the way that the 2022 elections were conducted in Harris County.”

Gov. Greg Abbott

“The allegations of election improprieties in our state’s largest county may result from anything ranging from malfeasance to blatant criminal conduct,” Abbott added. “Voters in Harris County deserve to know what happened. Integrity in the election process is essential. To achieve that standard, a thorough investigation is warranted.”

Members of the Democratic Party are lashing out at Ogg for investigating the Harris County election process, accusing her of supporting “election deniers and QAnon conspiracy theorists.” The chair of the Harris County Democratic Party, Odus Evbagharu, gave a statement on Wednesday about the DA’s investigation, saying that he does “not agree with urging the prosecution of election workers for faithfully doing their jobs in support of the Democratic process.” He accused Ogg of wanting to score “political points” instead of “having true concern about… the issues that impacted the midterm elections.”

“We cannot be helping amplify false rhetoric in the battle to preserve our democracy, freedom, and rights,” added Evbagharu.

On the same day that Ogg and Abbott reached out to the TDPS for support, the Harris County Republican Party filed a lawsuit against the county’s elections administrator, Clifford Tatum, and Harris County itself. The lawsuit alleges that Tatum had violated Texas state election laws in a number of ways, including the premature release of voting results on election night, telling poll workers to issue second ballots to voters who couldn’t properly scan their original ballots, and coercing election judges to allow results to be picked up from polling places by county personnel.

The lawsuit insists that the elections in Harris County were conducted in a way that “illegally disenfranchised tens of thousands of registered voters from casting their votes.”

In response to the lawsuit, Tatum said that his office is “fully committed to transparency regarding the processes and procedures implemented” during the midterm elections.

BREAKING: Berlin Judge Rules to Redo Elections After Widespread Chaos and Voting Errors Tainted Results

In 2021, Germany held a nationwide general election that will now have to be re-run in its capital city of Berlin after multiple discrepancies and voting irregularities were revealed, similar to the voting issues experienced across the United States. However, the US leadership wouldn’t consider redoing an election regardless of evidence of election law violations.

On Wednesday, the President of the Berlin Constitutional Court, Ludgera Selting, cited “serious systemic flaws” in the election preparation process, and ruled that “The elections to the Berlin House of Representatives and the district assemblies are declared invalid in the entire electoral area.”

The new elections are to be held in the Spring of 2023. According to State Election Commissioner Stephan Bröchler, February 12, 2023 is the most likely date.

During Berlin’s 2021 elections, citizens voted on four separate items: the general election for the German federal parliament, the regional election for the Berlin city-state, local district elections, and a referendum on bringing some housing under government control. On the same day, Berlin was hosting its international marathon, adding to the chaos of the day.

On the day of the elections, people were forced to wait in lines for hours just to cast their votes. Many of the polling stations were missing ballot papers and/or did not have enough ballot boxes. There were also missing ballots, ones that were poorly photocopied, and others that had the wrong candidates listed on them.

Many people received ballots for the wrong district, causing a great number of ballots to be invalidated. A large number of votes were cast after 6 pm, the official closing time.

All of these issues led to the court ruling that the standard of democratic elections was not met, requiring a re-run.

Wilko Zicht, part of the nonprofit electoral watchdog Walrecht, praised the court’s decision, saying,

“Democracy rests on the fact that results are accepted, and that is only possible if you can trust the results. These mistakes could not have been corrected any other way.”

Zicht also expressed the belief that “the danger would have been greater if the verdict today had been different.”

“Then you actually could have argued,” said Zicht. “Even if something has clearly gone wrong, how can they just carry on and not repeat the election.”

Just before the German elections in 2021, YouTube had announced they would be banning any content suggesting the US or German election results were illegitimate, or that “advances false claims that widespread fraud, errors, or glitches changed the outcome,” which, in this case, were not actually false.

DEMOCRATS DEFY ALL LOGIC! AZ SOS Katie Hobbs “Defeats” Wildly Popular Kari Lake, After Dem Org Revealed Only 17% Of Dems Voted On Election Day [VIDEO]

Monday the country was focused on what was happening in Arizona. Rather than being able to process their elections in a timely manner, the state took almost a week to declare a Democrat victory across the board.

According to Gateway Pundit, Pima County dumped another batch of election day ballots Monday that favored Katie Hobbs 58.08% to 41.95% for Kari Lake. But rather than the uncounted ballots decreasing after the dump, the total number of outstanding ballots increased. This election is being rigged and stolen, just like in 2020. 

According to the Uplift Data tracking service, Republicans had 52.7% of the vote on election day. Democrats had 16.6% of the vote on election day in Maricopa county.

 

And yet, as the Maricopa county batch came in late Monday night, Americans are being asked to believe that Katie Hobbs took a high percentage of the votes in a conservative district despite a huge number of Independents requesting a Republican ballot.

On election day, 106,588k voters showed up to vote in person in Maricopa County. Of those, a record-breaking percentage voted for the GOP. In Arizona, about 34% of registered voters are Independents who can request either a Republican or Democrat ballot at the polls. In Tuesday’s Primary, 80.0% who voted in person selected a Republican Party ballot. Only 20% used the Democrat ballot. The charts below provided various details and was actually compiled by Democrat analysts at Uplift.

As the abnormal counting and ballot dump continued, Lake encouraged Arizona voters to make sure their voices were heard by confirming their ballot status. She said
“Share this with every single person you know. Let’s Finish Strong.”

Democrat Gubernatorial nominee and Secretary of State Katie Hobbs was encouraged by both Republicans and Democrats to recuse herself from running the 2022 midterm elections as she was on the ballot. But, despite the apparent conflict of interest, she refused.
It has also come to light that a top election official in Arizona is also a donor to a far-left ‘resistance group,’ causing further speculation on what might have occurred in Arizona.

It is being reported that Maricopa election officials launched a PAC in 2021 to stop Maga candidates. Lake responded by saying election officials should be impartial. But instead, “the guys running the elections have made it their mission to defeat America First Republicans. Unbelievable.”

 

On Sunday, Republican Nominee Kari Lake said, “we have election season.” She said that the outstanding ballots are coming from heavily Republican areas.

Arizona has had numerous issues; with 26% of the tabulating machines not working, 1/3 of the polling precincts that had either machines that were down or printers that had no toner or low toner in them, and people who had to put their ballot into “door 3” a place to store ballots, because the machines were not working. Then “door 3” ballots that were not counted yet were mixed with ballots that had been counted.

“We need to get in there and restore faith in our elections. We can’t be the laughingstock anymore, and when I’m Governor, I won’t allow it.”

Michelle Obama Refuses to Say Whether She Wants Biden to Run For Reelection [VIDEO]

Former first lady Michelle Obama appeared in an interview that aired on Sunday with ABC’s Robin Roberts. During the interview, Obama heaped praise on Joe Biden and the work he has done as president, but, when asked if she hopes Biden will run for reelection in 2024, she couldn’t give an answer.

In an ABC News 20/20 special, Robin Roberts talked with Obama about her recent return to the White House for the unveiling of her and her husband’s portraits. Roberts then pivoted to discuss President Biden, saying, “President Biden is a good friend of yours. How do you feel he’s doing as president?”

“I think he’s doing a great job,” responded Obama. “This is a hard job and it’s – the one thing about being president, it’s probably the only job that few people know what it feels like to do it, but everybody thinks they know how to do it. Everybody’s a backseat driver when it comes to being the Commander-in-Chief of the most powerful nation on earth.”

“But it’s a tough job and I think that he’s doing the best he can under some tough circumstances,” she added.

Roberts then posed another question, seeming to catch Obama off guard. She asked, “Do you hope that President Biden will run again in 2024?”

Obama took a long pause, then said, “I will have to see.”

She then adjusted her response to make it seem like her hesitancy stemmed from wanting to allow Biden and his family to make the decision without added pressure, rather than simply not thinking he is fit to do the job for another four years.

She said, “The reason I don’t speak on that is because I know what it feels like to be on the other side of it, and I think that that’s a personal decision that he and his family have to make.”

“Probably if I hadn’t been through it, I’d feel more cavalier about opining on it, but I know it’s a personal call, and I don’t wanna be one of the millions of people weighing in on what he should do,” added Obama, successfully avoiding the actual question.

According to recent polls, over half of Democrats think Biden should not seek re-election in 2024.

KARMA? Bed Bath & Beyond Stopped Carrying My Pillow Products After Mike Lindell Stood Up Against Election Fraud in America...Now Suppliers Won’t Ship Merchandise To The Woke Corp.

In January 2021, Bed Bath & Beyond dropped MyPillow products from their stores.

Liberals celebrated:

In response, many conservatives boycotted Bed, Bath & Beyond — and bought their bedding from MyPillow.com using promo code FEDUP directly instead (100 Percent Fed Up benefits when you use that code).

Now, this: Suppliers to Bed, Bath & Beyond are worried Bed, Bath & Beyond won’t pay them back.

Bloomberg reports:

Take Dbest Products Inc., which has been selling its rolling carts to Bed Bath & Beyond for more than a decade. In early September, the company, for the first time, asked Bed Bath & Beyond to pay upfront for its products. “We requested to alter our payment terms to payment in advance, and they said no — politely,” Dbest Products Chief Executive Officer Richard Elden said. He says he previously sold around “six figures” worth of wholesale products to Bed Bath & Beyond annually…

Similarly, Lauren Greenwood, president of kitchen storage and organization company YouCopia, said she recently stopped shipping her merchandise to Bed Bath & Beyond after more than 10 years. “There is considerable financial risk,” Greenwood said. “We’re wishing them well. We’ll see if that means getting back into stores — or waiting from the sidelines to see if they can pull it off.”

The head of a company that had supplied $15 million to $20 million of wholesale merchandise to Bed Bath & Beyond annually in recent years said he had stopped shipping his products to the retailer in August. He asked not to be named to avoid jeopardizing his relationship with the company. The supplier said Bed Bath & Beyond hasn’t agreed to provide him with an additional financial guarantee he requested, called a letter of credit.

Bed, Bath & Beyond could have worked with MyPillow – but canceled them instead.

Big mistake!

Ironically, MyPillow has too many products right now — there’s an “Overstock Sale” at MyPillow:

What’s Really Behind Trump Lashing Out at Gov DeSantis and Gov “Young Kin” After Midterm Elections?

After most of the midterm elections concluded, Donald Trump turned to the social media platform Truth Social to criticize Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who many speculate will be competing with Trump for the GOP nomination in the 2024 presidential election. He also targeted Virginia Governor Glenn Younkin (R), who could throw his hat in the ring for the presidential elections as well.

On Thursday, Trump posted a lengthy message on Truth Social, nicknaming DeSantis “DeSanctimonious.” He diminished DeSantis’ handling of Covid and insisted that he is responsible for the Republican governor’s success. Trump said,

“Now that the midterms are over, and a success…

NewsCorp, which is Fox, the Wall Street Journal, and the no longer great New York Post (bring back Col!), is all in for Governor Ron DeSanctimonious, an average REPUBLICAN Governor with great Public Relations, who didn’t have to close up his State, but did, unlike other Republican Governors, whose overall numbers for a Republican, were just average – middle of the pack – including COVID, and who has the advantage of SUNSHINE, where people from badly run States up North would go no matter who the Governor was, just like I did!

Ron came to me in desperate shape in 2017 – he was politically dead, losing in a landslide to a very good Agriculture Commissioner, Adam Putnam, who was loaded up with cash and great poll numbers. Ron had low approval, bad polls, and no money, but he said that if I would Endorse him, he could win. I didn’t know Adam so I said, “Let’s give it a shot, Ron.” When I Endorsed him it was as though, to use a bad term, a nuclear weapon went off. Years later, they were the exact words that Adam Putnam used in describing Ron’s Endorsement. He said, “I went from having it made, with no competition, to immediately getting absolutely clobbered after your Endorsement.” I then got Ron by the “Star” of the Democrat Party, Andrew Gillum (who was later revealed to be a “Crack Head”), by having two massive Rallies with tens fo thousands of people at each one.

I also fixed his campaign, which had completely fallen apart. I was all in for Ron, and he beat Gillum, but after the Race, when votes were being stolen by the corrupt Election process in Broward County, and Ron was going down ten thousand votes a day, along with now-Senator Rick Scott, I sent in the FBI and the U.S. Attorneys, and the ballot theft immediately ended, jus prior to them running out of the votes necessary to win. I stopped his Election from being stolen. And now, Ron DeSanctimonious is playing games! The Fake News asks him if he’s going to run if President Trump runs, and he says, “I’m only focused on the Governor’s race, I’m not looking into the future.” Well, in terms of loyalty and class, that’s really not the right answer…

This is just like 2015 and 2016, a Media Assault (Colusion!), when Fox News fought me to the end until I won, and then they couldn’t have been nicer or more supportive. The Wall Street Journal loved Low Energy Jeb Bush, and a succession of other people as they rapidly disappeared from sight, finally falling in line with me after I easily knocked them out, one by one. We’re in exactly the same position now. They will keep coming after us, MAGA, but ultimately, we will win. Put America First and, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!”

On Friday morning, Trump posted about Youngkin, pointing out how much he helped the Virginia governor win the election, and how Youngkin “couldn’t have come close to winning” without his help.

“Young Kin (now that’s an interesting take. Sounds Chinese, doesn’t it?) in Virginia couldn’t have won without me. I Endorsed him, did a very big Trump Rally for him telephonically, got MAGA to Vote for him – or he couldn’t have come close to winning. But he knows that, and admits it. Besides, having a hard time with the Dems in Virginia – But he’ll get it done!”

People had mixed thoughts on Trump’s Truth Social posts, some thinking that he was trying to manipulate the Left-wing media to side with the two Republican lawmakers, then turn around and make one his Vice President for the 2024 presidential campaign.

Others criticized Trump for his behavior, labeling it as “weak” and “childish.”

Political commentator and podcast host Tim Pool, a former Liberal, tweeted, “trump crying about desantis right now on truth social makes him look weak af”

Conservative Author and Editor-in-Chief of The Florida Standard Will Witt posted his thoughts to social media regarding Trump’s controversial statements, saying that is acting like a “child” and is overly concerned with his ego.

Witt starts off his video by giving Trump credit for the things he’s done for the Republican party, and affirms that he does, in fact, like Trump.

“This entire Conservative movement would be non-existent if it wasn’t for Donald Trump,” said Witt. “But we should also be able to all come out and admit that this latest statement from Donald Trump makes him look like an absolute child.”

Addressing Trump directly, Witt continued, saying, “If you wanted to fight Ron DeSantis, and you wanted to get that primary spot… this is not the way to do it. You should out-maneuver him, you should outsmart him, not act like an insecure girl on a Truth Social post.”

“This is not the way you win the hearts and minds of America. This is not the way that you fix a country that is in a complete crisis right now,” he added.

On the other side of the issue is Trump supporter Erich Derbsch, whose post on Truth Social was “ReTruthed” by Trump. Derbesch wrote,

“Trump masterfully started this fake ‘fight’ with DeSantis to reveal the Deep State RINO scum and their puppets. Brilliant move! Now we see who is truly for the people and who is for the DC Swamp. Trump 2024!!! MAGA”

Some suggest that Trump should get another term in office, DeSantis should back off, and then he can step in after Trump’s second term is over.

Others don’t see any hidden message or incentive in Trump’s post. They agree that DeSantis owes his success to Trump and shouldn’t challenge him for the presidency out of respect.

One Truth Social user wrote a script for “what Ron DeSantis should say next time he’s asked if he’d run against Trump”:

“No, I would absolutely never run against Donald. Donald stepped up for me in 2018 when I was losing massively in Polls to fellow Republican Adam Putnam during Primaries. I wouldn’t even be standing here talking to you today if it weren’t for Donald Trump, and for that, I am forever grateful. If Donald does decide to run, I will return the favor by giving him my full support and total endorsement while helping campaign!”

BREAKING: President Trump Reveals Who He Voted For In Midterm Elections, Squashes Concerns About DeSantis Rift

People tried to revive rumors that there was a rift between President Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis after Trump made a joke this week at a rally where he called the Governor ‘Ron DeSanctimonious’.

Across the country and particularly in Florida, Democrat operatives have tried to sow discord among the Republican base by hyping a buddy rivalry between Trump and DeSantis.

Publicly, both have been friendly towards each other and DeSantis has allayed concerns that he would run for President in 2024.

When Democratic Gubernatorial nominee Charlie Crist pressed DeSantis on the issue during their pre-election debate, DeSantis said that the only ‘old donkey’ he was trying to ‘put out to pasture’ was Crist.

Today, President Trump revealed who he was voting for in the midterm elections, saying that he would vote for DeSantis and that it should be an “exciting day” for Republicans.

FOX News Reports–

Former President Donald Trump confirmed that he cast a vote for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Tuesday, saying Election Day was going to be a “very exciting day” for Republicans.

Trump cast his vote in Palm Beach, Florida, alongside his wife, Melania. He went on to say that he hopes Republicans can win Congress to start tackling crime across the country and “keep taxes low.” Republicans are widely expected to take the House of Representatives, but control of the Senate remains a toss-up.

“I think we’re gonna have a great night. I think it’s gonna be great to the country. It’s an honor to be here. They’ve done a fantastic job, but I think we’re gonna have a very big night, and it’s gonna be very exciting,” Trump told reporters gathered outside the polling place.

Republicans across the country centered their campaigns around the economy, inflation and rising crime, leading to a significant advantage in polls just before Election Day.

Leading Dem Strategist DESTROYS Biden On Day Of Midterm Elections [VIDEO]

Biden has staked the midterm elections happening today on the ‘preservation of Democracy’ as he holds out examples of supposedly extreme Republican candidates to scare people in to voting for Democrats.

Democrats have increasingly come under fire by both Republicans and their own party for not discussing issues that matter to voters this election cycle such as the economy and inflation, crime, and immigration.

Polls have consistently shown that voters rank the preservation of ‘Democracy’ low compared to kitchen table issues, while independents have said that both Democrats and Republicans have excused political violence in the past, showing that they don’t buy Democrats pitch that they are the party that will preserve Democracy.

On election day, a top Democratic strategist spoke to a CNN panel and eviscerated Biden for ignoring voters actual concerns.

The Daily Caller Reports–

 

Biden gave closing arguments Monday night at Bowie State University, saying the U.S. faces “an inflection point.”

“We know in our bones that our democracy’s at risk and we know that this is your moment to defend it,” Biden said, according to Reuters. Biden has reiterated that message in recent weeks, saying “democracy itself” is on the ballot.

CNN political commentator and Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen however, tore into Biden for pushing that message, which she argues alienates voters that Democrats will need in 2024.

“Voters have told us all year what they care about, and I think we have focused on other things and I think the President’s closing message last night about democracy is on the ballot again is frustrating to people like me who, you know, don’t want to see half the voters in America alienated or being accused of aligning with fascists because they’re voting for their pocketbook,” Rosen said.

FL Secretary of State BANS Biden’s DOJ Jackboots From Polling Locations, Says They Will ‘Undermine Confidence In The Election’

In a last-ditch effort to ‘fortify’ the upcoming elections as the polls show Democrats losing virtually every key race in the Senate and losing their majority in the House, Biden’s Department of Justice announced that they would be sending election monitors to 24 states across the country.

The election monitors will mostly be sent to swing counties that will likely determine the outcome of the upcoming elections.

Florida’s Secretary of State decided to ban Biden’s election monitors from all polling station’s in Florida, saying that the Department of Justice has not detailed a ‘need’ for monitors in the three counties where they want to enter polling stations.

Instead, the Florida Department of State will send its own monitors to polling stations to ensure that there is “no interference with the voting process”

CNN Reports–

Florida officials warned the US Justice Department that federal election monitors are not allowed inside polling places under state law, pushing back against federal plans for monitors in the state.

In a letter to DOJ dated Monday, Florida state elections officials argued that federal officials are not included on the list of people allowed inside polling places, and even if they did qualify, it “would be counterproductive and could potentially undermine confidence in the election.”

The Justice Department announced plans to send elections monitors to 24 states, including three counties in Florida – Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach. The practice of sending federal election monitors to local jurisdictions dates back decades.

But the department did “not detail the need for federal monitors in these counties,” Florida Department of State General Counsel Brad McVay wrote to DOJ in the letter.

“Women Voters Are Not Roaches” Meaghan McCain EVISCERATES Democrats In Election Day Op-Ed

Meghan McCain has been inconsistent in her support for Republican candidates and has often expressed negative sentiments towards President Trump.

Still, she came out swinging today in the Daily Mail in what could only be seen as a full-throated endorsement of Republican candidates and a scathing condemnation of Democrats.

Her Op-Ed focused on Democrats attacks against women, particularly white women, who plan to vote for Republicans in the midterm elections.

“Once upon a time, ‘soccer moms’ were a courted group of swing voters.

Do you remember? Of course, back then, they weren’t dismissed as borderline racists or rabid partisans.

Why would they be? They didn’t dabble in the fringes of politics. Their voting habits were easy to understand. They wanted what was best for their families.” She begins.

She then says that political analysts and pundits were “perplexed” after white women broke for Trump in the 2016 elections, but the reason why they did is fairly simply.  White women are not single-issue voters on abortion, they, like everyone else, care about issues like the economy and education.

“The mystery of Hillary Clinton’s loss among white women perplexed political analysts.

How could women vote for Donald Trump? He’s a monster, they wailed!

But the answer to their question was very simple. All issues are women’s issues.

Simply because we are born with female anatomy does not mean we don’t care about the economy, education, foreign policy, and the wellbeing of our country.” She said.

Democrats confusion has turned to anger as white women once again plan to vote for Republicans in the midterm elections.  This is in large part because Democrats believe shaming white women in to voting them will work.

“In recent days and weeks, as polling shows a remarkable swing of suburban white women toward the Republican party, we’ve heard women described as ‘roaches’ and ‘Nazis’ for valuing their best judgement over the orders of Democrats and the liberal media.

It’s the revenge of the ‘Karens’ – and can you really blame them?

Liberals should not be surprised that insulting a voter is not the best closing message.”

Meghan ends by making her party allegiance this election clear, after calling Democrats shaming of white women the “most toxic and destructive political strategy in modern history”

“We are not soccer moms.

We are not Karens.

We are women – and today, hear us roar.”

AG Garland’s DOJ Will “Monitor” Elections (Poll Challengers?) In Dem Cities Where Voter Fraud Is Most Prevalent...Michigan’s Dirty SOS Jocelyn Benson Tweets Support For Marxist Move

The DOJ is planning to “monitor” elections in 64 precincts in 24 states, including several MI cities where the possibility of voter fraud is most likely. The five cities the DOJ will target in MI are also (not coincidentally) the Democrat stronghold cities of Detroit, Flint, Grand Rapids, Southfield, and Pontiac.

The reasons the DOJ gives for coming to MI are laughable…

From AP reporter Grant Hermes: After threats to election workers, warnings of voter intimidation, and coordinating sessions and lawsuits to undermine vote counts. The DOJ will be monitoring elections in several cities in Michigan.

I’ve worked in Pontiac, MI as a poll challenger, and I can tell you from first-hand experience the election workers are so arrogant they will cheat in front of you and then tell you to shut up when you try to object. I’ve watched three elections being stolen in Pontiac, MI, under the guidance of the former City Clerk Sharikia Hawkins, who moved on to the city of Southfield, one of the largest cities in the state of Michigan, where she was charged with six voter felony charges. I’ve also worked in Detroit as a poll challenger, where I witnessed election workers pushing ballots through after not being able to find the voter on the qualified voter rolls by simply giving them a birthdate of 1-1-1900 that would override the system, allowing them to vote even though they didn’t show up on the voter rolls.

I’ve never worked in Grand Rapids or Flint, but the City Clerk of Flint recently resigned because she was being forced to hire the same number of Republicans as Democrats as election workers. That should tell you everything you need to know about how she runs (ran) her elections…

But the biggest problem by far in Michigan’s elections is the ultimate election official, Michigan’s dirty, Soros-funded SOS Jocelyn Benson, who just gleefully tweeted her support for bringing Merrick Garland’s jackbooted thugs coming into elections where voter fraud is most likely to occur, to keep GOP and Independent poll challengers in line.

Here’s Benson’s tweet:

The MI GOP and Independent voter integrity groups have significantly stepped up their efforts to thwart voter fraud this time around. The disastrous 2020 election saw Trump and Senate candidate John James, who were both winning by a wide margin, lose after the counting stopped in Detroit and then restarted. Suddenly, and without explanation, Joe Biden saw a massive surge of votes that ultimately caused him to “win” Michigan, a state that Trump won in 2016. Michigan’s most unremarkable US Senator, Gary Peters (D), also took the lead after the voting stopped in Detroit at the TCF Center, where ballots were being tabulated. Republicans and Independents have been working since the last election to make sure that never happens again.

The question is, what role will AG Garland’s jack-booted thugs play tomorrow? Is the plan to even further prevent poll challengers from doing their legally protected jobs? And why is Michigan’s Democrat SOS applauding this move? Could it be because she already knows Democrat poll challengers, who admitted in their training sessions, they are only going to the former TCF Center to report Republicans and keep them in line, already know they have nothing to worry about?

Michigan’s dirty SoS has been warning about “violence” on Election Day for months. She’s even gone on the morning news show circuit to warn of election violence, yet we’ve seen no evidence of her claims. Is something in the works to cause Republicans to react and then charge them? Is that why Garland’s DOJ is coming to select cities where voter fraud is most prevalent?

With no legislative oversight, SOS Benson changed the rules for poll challengers in 2022. Her new set of made-up rules that include several new ways she plans to restrict poll challengers from doing their jobs was challenged by MI citizens. After a MI judge ordered her to remove her new made-up rules, she appealed his decision with the liberal majority Supreme Court, who overruled the judge’s decision.

This appears to be an effort by our authoritarian AG Merrick Garland to intimidate poll challengers and possibly prevent them from reporting voter fraud if they witness it in any of these 64 “monitored” precincts. It wasn’t that long ago that the DOJ threatened parents for speaking out at school board meetings, so this move to intimidate poll challengers shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone. This is what happens under a Marxist regime—it should never be happening in America.

Here’s a portion of the statement by the DOJ announcing that their Civil Rights Division will be monitoring 64 jurisdictions in 24 key states:

Justice Department to Monitor Polls in 24 States for Compliance with Federal Voting Rights Laws

The Justice Department announced today its plans to monitor compliance with federal voting rights laws in 64 jurisdictions in 24 states for the Nov. 8, 2022 general election.

The Civil Rights Division will also take complaints from the public nationwide regarding possible violations of the federal voting rights laws through its call center. The Civil Rights Division enforces the federal voting rights laws that protect the rights of all citizens to access the ballot.

For the general election, the Civil Rights Division will monitor for compliance with the federal voting rights laws on Election Day and/or in early voting in 64 jurisdictions:

City of Manassas, Virginia;
City of Manassas Park, Virginia;

Monitors will include personnel from the Civil Rights Division and from U.S. Attorneys’ Offices. In addition, the division also deploys monitors from the Office of Personnel Management, where authorized by federal court order. Division personnel will also maintain contact with state and local election officials.

There is no word on how the DOJ plans to protect the vote from being stolen in any of these 64 precincts—only about how they plan to watch poll challengers do their lawfully prescribed jobs.

Postal Worker Election Corruption —Were LIES Told By MI SOS Jocelyn Benson About LEGALITY Of Detroit Postal Worker’s Drop Box Activity Only the Tip of the Iceberg?

Guest Post by Becky Behrends, M.D. and Vice President of Research for Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity
MC4EI.com

The joke goes that Republicans are against mail-in ballots. The Democrats have gone “postal” over this!

Why aren’t the Democrats going “postal” over the fact that there appears to be malfeasance in the postal service with regard to elections?

It is painfully obvious that there is more to the postal service’s involvement in mail-in ballots than the mainstream media wants to acknowledge.

100 Percent Fed Up has just released breaking news of an interview with a USPS District Manager in which he directly contradicts erroneous and false statements by Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson regarding whether it is legal and normal for postal workers to deliver absentee ballots to drop boxes. It is not! Yet, she makes this statement on a taxpayer-funded state government web page called “Misinformation.” Nothing worse than a Misinformation Guru being misinformed!

BREAKING: USPS District Mgr Confirms…MI SOS Jocelyn Benson LIED When She Claimed It’s “Normal” and “Legal Activity” For Postal Workers to Drop Stacks of Absentee Ballots Into Drop Boxes [VIDEO]

What else has the postal service been up to other than illegally delivering absentee ballots to drop boxes?

In July of this year, the USPS created the Election and Government Mail Services, division. Marc Elias, the notorious lawfare professional puppet of the left, tweeted his approval:

Mail-in ballots are an important part of the Democratic election playbook. Many fear that this will institutionalize postal service cheating on behalf of Democrats.

Biden recently announced three people to fill vacancies on the nine-member USPS Board of Governors. One of these includes the former chief counsel for the American Postal Workers Union, and another one is the head of the National Vote at Home Institute, which is a non-profit organization pushing for nationwide mail-in voting.

The US Postal Inspection Service is the oldest federal law enforcement branch. It is a heavily unionized workforce. What if they have decided to put their thumb on the scale? The National Association of Letter Carriers, which is an affiliate of the AFL-CIO, endorsed Biden in 2020 to the tune of 277,000 workers. The American Postal Workers Union also endorsed Biden in 2020. That is another 330,000 workers.

Could selective delivery of campaign mail tip an election?

It did in Baltimore two years ago. Five days before a June 2 mayoral primary election, 68,000 pieces of election materials sat undelivered. It was not delivered until most Marylanders had already cast their ballots by mail. The incumbent Democrat Baltimore mayor, Jack Young, was beaten by a progressive candidate who enjoyed considerable union support.

In May 2022, a similar event happened in Texas. In a three-way run-off primary race, Republican voters reported getting late mail from the Carrie Isaac campaign, but the mail arrived on time on the home turf of her opponent, Barron Casteel. Issac lost in her home county, where $10,000 of campaign literature targeted at high-propensity Republican households was not delivered until after the election. Issac, however, narrowly won anyway by just 271 votes, but her campaign consultant stated regarding the late mail delivery:

“Of course, it had a negative effect. The campaign went dark to thousands of voters in the crucial homestretch. And in over 15 years of political campaigns, this has never happened to one of our clients. That said, I’ve never seen so much union activity in a Republican primary. This was one of a handful of Republican runoff races where there was a significant difference between the candidates on key issues such as parent empowerment, government unions, and small business policies.”

Here are other examples of wrongful postal service election-related activities:

Remember the whistleblower, Richard Hopkins, who was a USPS employee in Pennsylvania in 2020? He stated in an affidavit that he was instructed by his superior to backdate postmarks on late-arriving ballots so they could be counted for the US presidential election. The Washington Post later said that he recanted this claim. But in a later interview with Project Veritas, he said the following:

“I am, right at this very moment, looking at an article written by the Washington Post. Says that I fabricated the allegations of ballot tampering. I’m here to say that I did not recant my statements. That did not happen.” He also revealed that he had been intimidated and grilled by lawyers to deny his allegations. He was suspended without pay from the local post office where he worked and said, “The post office has already been threatening my employment. I am scared for myself, my family, and
those closest to me.”

Who can forget the infamous case of the USPS delivery across state lines of 280,000 ballots from New York to Pennsylvania in the 2020 election? And the shutdown of any investigation of this by Bill Barr, US Attorney General? Yes, just more evidence of how corruption extends all the way up to the top of the government food chain!

Jesse Morgan, the truck driver involved in the transport of ballots, was the brave whistleblower in this case. He was transporting mail-in ballots from the postal service facility in Bethpage, NY, which had no ability to receive incoming mail because it had no machines to process them. The ballots in question came from drop boxes. Tony Shaffer, an Intelligence expert, said that Bill Barr called him and told him in no uncertain terms to “give the investigation up.”

A Nevada postal worker was caught pledging to commit voter fraud in 2020.

A Kentucky postal worker was fired and faced federal charges in 2020 for trashing over 100 absentee ballots. They were found in a dumpster.

It’s been said that when you spot one rat, always assume there are more.

How many “rats” are there in the postal service potentially manipulating election outcomes? The Secretary of State in Michigan, along with the Attorney General, should be “ratting them out” if they were serious about election integrity and security.

Time for the citizens to do something about this in the mid-term elections!

BREAKING: Top Detroit Election Official Admits Under Oath Thugs Tasked With “Security” In Upcoming Election At Detroit’s Former TCF Center Are “Volunteers” Who He Also Calls “Poll Workers” [VIDEO]

On August 2, 2020, Braden Giacobazzi, an Independent poll challenger, was thrown out of the absentee counting center in Detroit by “men in black” for allegedly asking too many questions,  including why one of the monitors used to process the ballots had an icon in the corner that indicated it was online.

Arrows are pointing at “Men in black,” who are wearing no credentials, but only “ICU” in white letters on their t-shirts.

Here is Mr. Giacobazzi’s incredible story…

I was a poll challenger at TCF.

Throughout the night, I was routinely told to step away from the table and that I was only allowed to stand next to the monitor near station one at the corner of the tables. I was also told that the law doesn’t matter in this room, only their rules. This is all untrue and illegal. It is deceptive, restrictive, and obstructive to the process, which violates Michigan Election Law Act 116 of 1954, 168.730, 168.731, 168.733(3,4), and 168.734.

One of my first challenges of the night came at a counting table near the middle/back of the room. I had checked on it multiple times over multiple hours during the first and second shifts to see that it was attached to the internet. Nobody seemed to notice or care about this. Finally, when I flagged down a supervisor and asked her to hover the mouse over the wifi symbol in the task monitor, she said she wasn’t allowed to do that and went to grab someone else. That person also said they didn’t think they were allowed to do that and grabbed someone even higher up the chain. Eventually, a man who identified himself as Anthony Miller came to the table and hovered the mouse over the wifi image. It then read “Internet Connection” because it was attached to the internet during the counting process all day since at least the time I had arrived. Multiple people witnessed the wifi signal image and the change to airplane mode by Anthony Miller.

This was a fine resolution to my concern. However, after making this challenge, it was clear that I was being shadowed by Democrat challengers and men in black.

I recall that a ballot at the scanning station did not register in the poll book. So, I stepped in to see if I could note anything unique about the envelope and monitor the process. I was immediately told I had to stand 6 feet back. The men in black appeared and started telling me falsehoods about how I wasn’t allowed to do anything but look at the monitor because everything was on the monitor. I said to them that wasn’t true and that, in this specific case, the ballot literally was not showing up on the monitor, and that was the specific reason for the challenge. I also told them it wasn’t even me that initiated the challenge. They didn’t care. They just kept trying to distract me from my job by insisting that I was trying to intimidate the workers at the table by trying to see the election materials, as is my duty under the law as a challenger.

After moments like this, I often stepped away from the table and walked around to see if things would cool off, and I could return to my duties. But, It seemed like even more men in black were around me whenever I would go back to any table later.

In addition, after I made my first challenge, Democrat Party challengers began shadowing me at any table I went to, as well. They appeared not to care what was happening at the tables, only what I was doing. Then, large men dressed in black would show up and shadow me as well. I was not breaking any laws and was following all legal protocols as defined by the law and not being at all rude or meanspirited to the poll workers. I was never belligerent or abusive to anyone and wasn’t initiating conversation intentionally with anyone at the table except the supervisor. Sometimes, workers would ask what I was doing, and I would always say something like, “I am just observing, not trying to be a pest, but I can’t talk to you.” Things seemed to be fine. It wasn’t until men in black showed up that any table seemed to begin to have a problem with me. These men always demanded my credentials and information but refused to give me any information. When I would ask who they were (they had no lanyards or name tags), most of them would scoff and then get another one of them to try to intimidate me further and make accusations and threats toward me about being kicked out or how I needed to be 6 feet away from the table. None of them had any problem standing within 2 or 3 feet of me in order to try and raise my blood pressure. When it didn’t work, they would continue to distract me with redundant conversation over and over again and call more people over. This happened more and more throughout the night as it got later. In addition, when I would tell them I needed to see a process that wasn’t visible from the computer screen, one might tell me I had to stay there, while another would tell me to go to the other side of the table, only to have another person tell me I couldn’t be there, either and had to go back to the computer, ping-ponging me around to agitate me and cause a visual scene that could be interpreted poorly.

Around 11 pm, as I was walking back to the counting table, I was stopped by a man with dreadlocks who had no identifying markings on his clothing or lanyard. He demanded to know who I was, asked for my credentials, and seemed to insist that I could not ever leave one table throughout the night. This is also not true since I was a roving challenger, and there were only a handful of challengers for the entire room of 130 or so tables. I gently asked him who he was, and he scoffed at that and called over another larger man in black. He was impeding me from doing my job because my credentials were clearly visible, and I was not breaking any laws, so I continued to monitor the table. I cannot recall if the man he called to the table had an ICU on his shirt or not, but he was dressed in black and asked for my credentials. When he came over, I told him I was with MC4EI and said my name was Braden and asked who he was. He refused to tell me, and my answers to him didn’t seem to be enough for him, so he demanded that I step away from the table. I protested politely verbally and cited the law since I was acting fully within the capacity of a legal poll challenger. But he continued to insist, so I left the table with him. which made it impossible for me to do my job and much easier for him to surround me with more of his guys and kick me out. He kept asking me for more credentials, and I kept showing him my badge, which had all my information on it. He didn’t seem to want to listen to me or view the badge when I offered it to him. He kept asking me who I was with, and I said MC4EI multiple times and showed him the badge, and then he said I was going to be removed. By now, numerous large men in black were surrounding me despite the fact that no verbal or physical altercation had occurred. No one had even raised their voice. Then, I was gripped and assaulted by multiple large men who forcibly removed me without allowing me to collect my belongings at the front of the room. The room cheered and clapped and laughed and jeered. I repeatedly asked the men in black what law I broke, and they couldn’t cite a single one.

As the night went on, I could not find any lawyers to bring to the table; I am not sure we had any left. This may have been what emboldened them to violate my rights so often as a challenger later in the evening. In the beginning, I didn’t seem to have an issue with anyone. In addition, as I would stand at the tables, men in black would mutter to each other and those around them from behind me about how they were about to kick me out even though I was just standing there and not intimidating anyone or touching anything. It was very clear that they had all come to an agreement that I was a mark, and they were going to work collectively to eliminate me from the room because new men in black seemed to keep showing up and hovering.

Late in the evening, when I was being harassed by the men in black and once again explaining to them that everything I was doing was within the duties of a challenger and the law, I said I would find a lawyer to confirm this to them, and they said they didn’t care about anything a lawyer says. I left and went to go find a lawyer and searched around the entire room, and asked my colleagues, but we couldn’t see any, so I eventually went back to monitoring tables. When I returned, it seemed that these nameless, unaccountable men in black were more emboldened than they had been before to intimidate me.

At multiple times throughout the night, when I would cite Michigan Election Law in the context of a situation, including during this final moment, I was told that the law didn’t matter in here. Only their rules mattered and the feelings of the people at the table. I had on a lanyard that cited the specific laws that entitled poll challengers to explicitly do what I was doing multiple times. And the response was always the same: I don’t care about the law; All that matters here are my rules. At one point, when I explained a law to one of these men who was being deceptive and obstructing me, I was told to think more about the feelings of the people at the table rather than the law and my duties. I responded by saying I have nothing but respect for the people sitting at these tables all day, and I believe they have respect for me because I am here all day on my feet, too. We are all just doing our jobs. One of them responded that I wouldn’t be there much longer.

Throughout the night, there were errors in red that would pop up on the poll book screen that were simply being dismissed. I asked the table supervisors what this meant, and one of them said, “I don’t know. I was just told to push it through when it happens.” One of these errors that I was able to write down read like this:
“Absentee Ballot [xxxxxxxx] sent by the clerk – voter must surrender ballot or submit an affidavit.” This may very well be just fine; I don’t know. But it seems bizarre that table supervisors are being told to let countless ballots with such an error pass without even understanding why it is fine.

To be clear, I think most, if not all, of the table workers I encountered were just doing their jobs as they were told to do them. They seemed like fine people as I stood around. But they were clearly told to act in ways that are not in compliance with Michigan law and most probably don’t realize it. That is why I would cite the law to them whenever there was an issue. What is worrisome are the large men in black who are clearly hired to intimidate poll challengers for whatever reason they please. They are lawless; they admit that they are lawless, and they don’t care because they know they are unaccountable.

Watch Braden asking the Detroit Police Officer to explain why he’s agreed to remove him from the counting room by a group of large men wearing black T-shirts and no other form of identification other than “ICU” written in large white block letters across their chests.

I asked one of the arrogant, non-credentialed, yet powerful ICU members to find his supervisor so I could speak with him and ask why Braden was kicked out.

The ICU supervisor refused to talk to me. Instead, one of the top election officials in the City of Detroit, Daniel Baxter, spoke with me and told me that Mr. Giacobazzi was disrespectful to the workers. I had been watching Braden since he informed me about one hour before he was kicked out that the ICU thugs were following him around and threatening him under their breath ever since he pointed out that one of the monitors for a computer at a counting board was online.

Yesterday, during a hearing with Chief Judge Timothy Kenny of Michigan’s 3rd Circuit Court regarding signature verification issues, drop box security, and other issues plaguing the City of Detroit, of which Braden Giacobazzi is a Plaintiff, Attorney Dan Hartman asked the Director of Detroit Elections, Daniel Baxter, about the curious new security group. Hartman was referring, of course, to the burly men who looked like bouncers working at a local bar and appeared to be working as the new de facto security force at the Huntington Center (formerly the TCF Center).

“Who is the agency that wears the ICU? Who are they employed by?” Hartman asked.

“They’re poll workers,” Baxter replied.

Hartman asked him to clarify for the record, “They’re poll workers?”

Baxter confirmed, “Yes.”

“And do they function and security?” Mr. Hartman asked.

“Ah, yes—They just monitor to ensure everything goes well—Uh, they partner with our supervisory staff.” Daniel Baxter answered as if it was the most normal thing in the world to have an uncredentialed, unidentified group of men who look like bouncers roaming around an absentee counting room and threatening and intimidating lawful poll challengers.

“Okay, so they’re poll workers—so are they would be a Detroit employee?” Hartman asked.

“No—they’re volunteers,” Baxter replied.

There are several issues with Mr. Baxter’s admission that this large mob of uncredentialed “security/poll workers” roaming the counting center, not the least of which, according to election law, both political parties must be equally represented when hiring poll workers. It’s almost like Mr. Baxter, who was likely taken off guard by the question, realized the issue he had just created when he identified them as “poll workers” and when Mr. Hartman asked him if they were employed by the City of Detroit, he quickly said they were also “volunteers.”

Watch:

How has the city of Detroit been allowed to get away with this kind of corruption for so many years? And with a justice system that refuses to rule with impartiality, and a crooked Soros-funded Democrat Secretary of State, Jocelyn Benson, who only cares about the results of the election favoring her party, how will the city or even the state of Michigan ever have another free and fair election?

BREAKING: Senior Election Official In Milwaukee FIRED For Exposing Absentee Ballot Fraud, May Face Criminal Charges

Republican politicians and activists have long expressed concerns about absentee voting after showing that the current process for requesting and verifying absentee ballots is ripe for abuse and fraud.

One election official in Milwaukee was fired and may face criminal charges for showing how easy it is to obtain absentee ballots fraudulently.

Kimberly Zapata, the deputy director of the Milwaukee Election Commission, requested absentee ballots that members of the military use to vote and sent them to Republican Elections Committee chairwoman Janel Brandtjen.

Zapata requested the ballots using the names of servicemembers who do not exist.

The Elections Commission Director believes that Zapata was trying to show that absentee ballots can be requested without photo identification or even cross-referencing the person with a voter registration database.

She was fired by Milwaukee’s Democrat mayor, Cavalier Johnson.

District Attorney John Chisholm said that charges against Zapata will be filed ‘in the coming days’.

The Citizen Free Press Reports–

A Milwaukee election official could face criminal charges accusing her of fraudulently requesting absentee ballots reserved for members of the military and sending them to a Republican lawmaker to prove how easy it is to defraud the Wisconsin election system.

Milwaukee Election Commission deputy director Kimberly Zapata, 44, of South Milwaukee, was fired by Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson this week after Johnson discovered she had requested the ballots.

Johnson said Zapata said she committed the crime to show voter fraud was possible.

“This has every appearance of being an egregious and blatant violation of trust,” Johnson said. “Election integrity is absolutely integral. It’s absolutely essential.” Milwaukee County prosecutors are considering charging Zapata with malfeasance in office, a felony, and illegally requesting a ballot, a misdemeanor.

District Attorney John Chisholm said in a statement his office is reviewing the election fraud allegations and that prosecutors “expect charges to be filed in the coming days.”

BREAKING: FAR-LEFT MI Supreme Court Rules Illegal Poll Challenger Rules Created By Michigan’s Dirty SOS That Prevents Them From Doing Their Jobs Can Be Used In Nov Election

On Oct 10, we reported about five individuals in Michigan who sued Michigan’s dishonest Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, and MI Director of Elections Jonathan Brater over their sudden creation of a new set of rules titled “The Appointments, Rights, and Duties of Poll Challengers and Election Workers,” only months before Michigan’s August 2, 2022, Primary Election.

Jonathan Brater and Jocelyn Benson

The lawsuit, which Attorney Ann Howard filed in the MI Court of Claims, was joined together with a similar lawsuit filed by the RNC. The suit asked for an emergency injunction to compel MI SOS Jocelyn Benson and Jonathan Brater to rescind the changes to their newly created  “guidance” for poll challengers that was first implemented in the August 2022 Primary Election.

The new set of rules by Jocelyn Benson, the Soros-funded MI Democrat SOS, essentially ties the hands of poll challengers who have a constitutional right to examine the absentee ballot counting process. It is just one more example of how Benson consistently pushes the envelope and goes outside of the bounds of her job description by restricting members of the Republican Party, who she treats like an enemy, from overseeing the absentee ballot counting process.

On October 20, Judge Swarzle offered his opinion, ruling in favor of the plaintiffs.

Instead of complying with the ruling by Judge Swarzle and removing her made-up rules from the MI SOS, a taxpayer-funded website, Michigan’s dirty SOS Jocelyn Bensonimmediately appealed the decision to the MI Supreme Court, hoping for a more favorable outcome. Michigan’s dirty SOS and her legal team, which includes lawyers from Hillary Clinton’s favorite law firm headed up by leftist hack attorney Marc Elias, issued over 460 pages of legal filings.

“guidance,” as she points out, “This is the fifth time a judge has slapped her down.”:

Today, in a stunning reversal of Judge Swartzle’s decision, a 5-2 ruling from the far-left-leaning MI Supreme Court granted SOS Benson’s request to stay the Circuit Court judge’s decision.

The MI Supreme Court’s decision means that the poll challengers are NOT allowed to have any discussion with election workers and are forced to ONLY communicate with a liaison. If that liaison is busy with another issue or poll challenger and the polls challenger, who is also not allowed to leave the precinct where they are watching the ballots being processed, the ballot in question could be processed and tabulated before a so-called liaison comes to their table to address an objection. In other words, an illegally cast ballot can be tabulated with no ability for the poll challenger to prevent it from happening.

From the MI Supreme Court decision:

Providing a challenger liaison therefore does not appear contrary to any statute, so long as such a liaison is actually available, and it appears to be within the Secretary of State’s authority under a statutory provision distinct from its rulemaking authority. The Secretary of State therefore has a high likelihood of success on the merits in this issue.

Justin Brian Zahra shared a scathing dissent in the Supreme Court decision:

This is not the first time that the Secretary of State has claimed to merely be issuing “instructions” to justify the lack of open and transparent promulgation of rules under the APA. The same claim was made before the 2020 general election. Yet, in March 2021, the Court of Claims issued an opinion that held, “[i]n sum, the standards issued by defendant [Secretary of State] on October 6, 2020, with respect to signature-matching requirements amounted to a ‘rule’ that should have been promulgated in accordance with the APA. And absent compliance with the APA, the ‘rule’ is invalid.”

In the present case, the Court of Claims carefully and reasonably reviewed the challenges and found each to be in conflict with statutory law concerning the credentialling of poll watchers and their conduct during the election. At this stage of these proceedings, I cannot conclude that a stay of the Court of Claims judgment should enter. Indeed, it appears likely that defendants have once again chosen to implement “rules” under the guise of “instruction.”

Under MCL 168.31(1)(a), the Secretary of State shall “issue instructions and promulgate rules pursuant to the [APA] for the conduct of elections and registrations in accordance with the laws of this state.” Defendants undisputedly did not promulgate revisions to the Manual pursuant to the APA, and they argue that they were not required to do so because the revisions were only instructional. Yet, defendants assert that “the instructions are binding on local clerks, MCL 168.21, MCL 168.31(1)(a)-(c), who in turn have the obligation to train all election inspectors on Election Day procedures pursuant to those instructions, including the procedures related to challengers and the challenge process, MCL 168.31(1)(c), (i), (m).” Defendants cannot have it both ways.

While defendants maintain that the Manual was revised to provide mere instructions, those instructions became manifest when actually implemented and put into practice during the August 2, 2022 primary. At that point, plaintiffs could cite the revisions to the Manual and claim the revisions were not merely instructional, they were in fact rules that were required to be promulgated under the APA to have the effect of law.17

Michigan has a number of critical candidates and proposals on the ballot in 5 days, not the least of which is the election of two MI Supreme Court Justices who must be elected if Michigan has any hope of blind justice in their state.

Paul Hudson and Brian Zahra have the ability to balance the far-left-leaning MI Supreme Court. Choose wisely on November 8, Michigan residents.

Tucker Carlson Calls Out CIA and YouTube For Interfering in Brazil’s Election [VIDEO]

The former president of Brazil, Jair Bolsanaro, was defeated in Sunday’s presidential election by far-Left opponent Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (Lula). Lula overtook Bolsanaro by less than two percentage points.

Tucker Carlson questioned the narrow race on his Fox News segment “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” where he revealed that YouTube announced it will be “censoring any posts that raise doubts about the vote total.” So, not only are Brazilians not allowed to question the election results but neither are Americans.

In a statement, YouTube said they are “expanding [their] existing election integrity policy to prohibit content advancing false claims that widespread fraud, errors, or glitches occurred in the 2022 Brazil presidential election.”

“The election is still ongoing,” Carlson pointed out, questioning YouTube’s new censorship announcement. “The incumbent has not conceded. How do you know the claims are, quote, false? Well of course you don’t. You are taking sides and using censorship to cement the results in place. This is propaganda. YouTube is interfering in a democratic election in a sovereign nation.”

“Why can’t an American citizen watch whatever he or she wants to?” Tucker asked.

Carlson also accused the CIA of interfering in the Brazilian election for over a year and pressuring President Bolsanaro’s office to not question the election results.

Carlson pointed out that the Biden administration, which has been “constantly yammering on about the sanctity of democracy and free and fair elections” has been “meddling in the elections of other countries… specifically the elections of Brazil.”

“Biden’s CIA director personally pressured Jair Bolsanaro’s office… to accept the results of the election long before the election took place,” Carlson reported.

Carlson argued that, in a democracy, there is no obligation to “accept the results of an unfair election.”

“No one in Brazil is allowed to complain about it because big tech companies, which have been effectively arms of the Biden administration for two years, are censoring anyone who questions the election,” Carlson said. “This is massive suppression.”

Matt Tyrmand, an investigative journalist, joined Carlson on his show to talk about Brazil’s election results and confirmed that the Biden administration has admitted to having the CIA director “bully the president of a sovereign country.”

Tyrmand revealed that the Biden regime “doesn’t even think it’s a big deal,” but rather, they think it’s what they should be doing to secure “democracy.”

“In addition to the CIA director, now [the Biden administration] is talking about sending [national security advisor] Jake Sullivan down there… to make sure the transition is orderly,” revealed Tyrmand.

“These people are losing their voices,” Tyrmand said, “and the Biden administration says nothing.”

Biden Gives Another Hateful Speech Accusing Republicans of Threatening Democracy While Ignoring Inflation and High Fuel Prices Only Days Before Election [VIDEO]

Last night, Joe Biden delivered a pointless speech just days before the midterm elections, ignoring all pressing issues in the United States. Instead, he insipidly reminded Americans how much of a threat to democracy Republicans are for questioning the results of the 2020 election, something that Democrats have done for decades.

Biden began his speech by addressing the recent incident that occurred at the house of Nancy and Paul Pelosi. While there are many conflicting details about this supposed break-in and many theories about what happened that night, there is one thing that seems to be clear: the attacker – an illegal immigrant living in Berkeley, CA – had BLM signs and a gay flag outside his home. But, apparently, he was a “far-right extremist.”

Fueling the rumors that Pelosi’s attacker was a right-wing terrorist, Biden began to compare the attack on Pelosi to the Jan 6 Capitol riots, saying,

“After the assailant entered the home asking ‘Where’s Nancy? Where’s Nancy?’… Those are the very same words used by the mob when they stormed the United States Capitol on January the 6th.”

Biden then began to blame Trump and his supporters for fueling the “big lie” that the 2020 election was stolen, accusing the former president of inciting violence and threatening our democracy.

However, Democrats have been refusing the legitimacy of elections for decades without being accused of encouraging political violence or held up as criminals.

Biden continued to warn against the MAGA Republicans, referring to them as “dark forces” that “thirst for power.”

He then declared that it is both “unlawful” and “un-American” if people refuse to blindly accept election results. Apparently, it is un-American to express freedom of thought and speech.

While Biden obsessed over those who question the results of the 2020 election, he failed to even briefly address some of the most pressing issues facing our country. Just six days away from the midterm elections, Biden failed to mention issues at the U.S.-Mexico border, rising crime, record-high inflation, fentanyl crises, education, etc.

Biden has since faced major backlash from both parties for his ineffective, baseless remarks.

RNC Research tweeted a list of all the important topics Biden did not talk about, questioning the President’s priorities as tight races in many states are down to their crucial last few days.

Fox News’s Tucker Carlson tore Biden’s speech apart, saying, “What is going on here? We’re a week from the election – six days. Biden could have given – would, under normal circumstances, have given a speech about his policies and how they’ve made your life better… He could, in other words, have made a pitch for your vote based on what he has done. That’s what politicians do in functioning democracies.”

Fox News host Jesse Watters also bashed Biden’s speech, saying, “That was the President of the United States confessing that he’s about to get wiped out a week from now.”

New York Times, a Left-leaning media outlet, reported on Biden’s speech, saying, “Mr. Biden seemed almost to be arguing with those voters who were not, in his view, prioritizing election legitimacy highly enough. Medicare, Social Security and the other issues were important, he said, ‘but there’s something else at stake: democracy itself.'”

Before Biden spoke on Wednesday, Bernie Sanders’ 2020 campaign manager Faiz Shakir addressed the topic of the speech, suggesting that the president should not be focusing on the issue of democracy this close to the midterms.

“We’re in the last phase where I think you ought to be talking to a persuasion audience, and I hope there are some people at the White House watching, because when you think about this address he’s about to give tonight – I hope they’re re-writing it and focusing on cost of living,” said Shakir.

“If you’re going to vote on democracy… and abortion, I’d posit to you that a lot of those people have made their decision,” he added.

The New York Post’s John Podhoretz criticized Biden’s speech as “forceless,” saying, “Biden didn’t appeal passionately to the better angels of our nature because there was no energy behind his words.”

“It was like he was one of my kids and he was showing signs of having stayed up too late and it was past time for him to go beddie-bye,” Podhoretz wrote.

HUGE! Liberal Pollster Projects That Republicans Will Win The Senate With One Week Before Election

Republicans have continued to gain momentum in the final two weeks before the upcoming midterm elections.

Republicans only appear at risk of losing one Senate seat in Pennsylvania while they have multiple pickup opportunities in Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona.

In Georgia, Trump-endorsed Herschel Walker is currently up by 1.6 percent, according to a RealClearPolitics polling average.  Four out of five of the most recent polls conducted this month show, Walker, ahead.

John Fetterman, who was leading Republican Mehmet Oz by four percent at the beginning of October, now only leads him by 1.2 percent, according to the RCP average.

In Nevada, Adam Laxalt narrowly leads against Democratic incumbent Catherine Masto by 0.4 percent.

In a new development, Nate Silver’s 538 Senate projection has put Republicans narrowly ahead by a 51-49 percent margin for winning the Senate.

Silver currently has Republicans losing Pennsylvania, putting Fetterman’s chances at 57 percent for winning the state.

Meanwhile, he has Republicans ahead in Georgia and Nevada.

If his projections hold, Republicans would win the Senate 51-49.

Breitbart Reports–

Republicans are now favored to retake the Senate on November 8, forecaster FiveThirtyEight predicted Tuesday for the first time since July.

FiveThirtyEight estimated Republicans are favored to take back the Senate with 51 seats. The Senate is currently split 50/50 with Vice President Kamala Harris as the tie-breaking vote.

The pollster appears to have shifted the Nevada race in favor of Republicans. Nevada Republican Adam Laxalt is challenging Democrat Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV).

Laxalt has led the race in 10 of the last 14 polls, with an average lead of nearly two points. Cortez Masto has outspent Laxalt by about $9 million, according to third quarter fundraising totals.

To retake the Senate, Republicans need to hold Pennsylvania and Wisconsin and retake either Arizona, Nevada, Washington, New Hampshire, or Georgia to have a one seat majority in the Senate.

BREAKING: Bolsonaro Breaks Silence... Doesn’t Concede Defeat In Brazilian Election

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro lost in a narrow defeat to Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, more commonly known as ‘Lula’.

Bolsonaro lost by 1.8% after more than 118 million votes were tallied in an election where both sides were accused of attempting to suppress the vote of their opponent’s supporters.

On Tuesday, Bolsonaro broke a two-day-long silence after losing the election and held a press conference.

During his speech, he did not explicitly congratulate Lula or ‘concede’ defeat, though he did acknowledge that a transition of power would take place.

Bolsonaro hit out as his critics who claimed he was illiberal or Undemocratic during the speech.

“I have always been labeled undemocratic and, unlike my accusers, I have always played within the four lines of the constitution,” he said.

CNN Reports–

Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro said Tuesday that he would “continue to fulfill all the commandments of our constitution” in a short speech at the presidential palace in Brasilia, after days of silence following his election loss to the leftist former leader Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.

He did not explicitly concede defeat, though the event appeared to signal his intention to cooperate with the transfer of power.

Taking the podium after the President, chief of staff Ciro Nogueira said that he would work with the new government and is waiting for Lula da Silva’s transition team to begin the handover.

“President Jair Messias Bolsonaro authorized me, when it is time, based on the law, to start the transition process,” Nogueira said.

Notably, Bolsonaro’s brief address did not contest the vote result. Instead, he thanked those who voted for him and hit out at critics

NC Democrats Panic As Members of Their Own Party Put Campaigns In Jeopardy Only One Week Before Nov. Election

A Guest Post by Becky Behrends, M.D.and Vice President of Research for Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity (MC4EI.com)

Only four months ago, the NC Democrat Party was being praised for supporting a union for campaign workers.

Now, with only one week to go until the mid-term elections and Democrats North Carolina are in panic mode!

Democrats are all about embracing and endorsing unions. They parade themselves around as the party of unions! In North Carolina, the Democrat Party Staff Workers voted to unionize early in the year. The union workers and employees believe they should receive more pay and benefits. The state Democratic Party does not agree.

The union members will not accept the same pay they received two years ago in the 2020 election. They want more! Campaigns have always been about working long hours for low pay. But this fact is not going over well with this union. They have said, “This campaign cannot run without us. We deserve a fair contract.”

All of this is unfolding with the Democratic Party on the verge of losing numerous seats of power such that the House of Representatives and even the Senate could flip to a GOP majority. North Carolina is a key state at risk for the Democrats. The union has not formally threatened to strike, but it is a real possibility as they are holding out for their demands.

So, now the Democrats are faced with having to put their money where their mouths are. They have excoriated business owners for not ponying up the money for union demands. Now that they are in the employers hot seat, it is not desirable for them to actually have to negotiate wages upwards. How do they dig themselves out of this credibility ditch they are in?

It is time for unions to bail out of this love affair with the Democrats. For decades Americans have been fed the falsehood that the Democrats are the party of the working man. Which working men and which jobs?
The thousands of union construction jobs that were lost when Biden put the axe to the Keystone XL pipeline? The thousands of jobs that were demolished with cancellations of existing permits for drilling for oil on federal lands? The ridiculous California regulations that keep pushing truckers out of their state adding to the serious supply line problems?

How is inflation working for union workers? It is known as “the poor people’s tax.” It wipes out the retirement plans of working people. For people living on marginal income, it pushes them over the edge to pay for the simple necessities of life.

High gas prices? Not a problem for people with advanced degrees who work remotely from home on a laptop. But a big problem for the “muscle jobs” that require old-fashioned boots on the ground commuting to work every day. Or should we say “tires on the road”?

And what about working people being expected to pay the piper for the federal government absorbing college student loans and canceling them? As taxes go through the roof to pay for this, blue-collar workers will find that they “will be paying off the masters degrees and doctorates of latte-drinking vegans for the next 100 years!”

Should the North Carolina party support the campaign staff workers or not? Should workers be applauded if they cross the picket lines if they strike? As a spokesman for Ted Budd, NC Republican candidate for the US Senate, said, “Where’s Jimmy Hoffa when you need him?”

And finally, here is how the North Carolina GOP responded:
“If this is how the NC Dem Party treats its own staff, acting in bad faith to avoid paying the true costs of their horrible policies, imagine how little concern they have for YOU! NC, VOTE REPUBLICAN!!

Democrats are the working man’s party??!! Rubbish!!!!

BREAKING: 2000 Mules Investigators Gregg Phillips and True the Vote Founder ARRESTED and Taken Into Custody One Week Before Mid-Term Election [VIDEO]

This morning, Federal Judge Kenneth Hoyt held True the Vote founder Catherine Engelbrecht and True the Vote investigator Gregg Phillips in contempt of court over their refusal to identify a confidential informant who helped them obtain information that led to the discovery and later, evidence that the E. Lansing, MI based election software company Konnech was storing election-related data on servers in China.

Ivory Hecker, a former Fox News reporter turned independent journalist was on the scene during the hearings in the district court.

She reports:

“Judge Hoyt orders that Engelbrecht and Phillips be held in custody for a day or more until they bring forth the information they are withholding,” Hecker tweeted. She added, “Judge says he never got a straight answer on who was in the Dallas hotel room January, 2021, and he doesn’t know how many people were there. Judge says the way Phillips and Engelbrecht talked suggests True the Vote did have access to the hacked computer data, though they deny it.

The courageous duo have been taken into custody by US Marshalls and are currently being held. Here is the video of Engelbrecht and Phillips being led out of the courtroom:

Last night, on her Truth Social account, Catherine Engelbrecht posted this poignant and touching message to the truth warriors who continue to investigate the evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 election:

Hi friends. Writing on the eve of what appears to be jail time.

Still praying it doesn’t happen. But if it does, be assured we won’t be gone forever. More importantly, know this:

Be strong. Be courageous. Lead with love. We are a lot more alike than we are different. You have been entrusted to hold the line for this time. You can do it. Finish strong.

Engelbrecht and Phillips were the duo behind the bombshell documentary 2000 Mules that used geofencing data to uncover an alleged massive ballot-harvesting operation in several key states across America in 2020.

Gregg Phillips and Catherine Engelbrecht

On September 8, a reporter from 100 Percent Fed Up attended “The Pit,” where True the Votes’ Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips dropped a bombshell about the arrest of Eugene Yu, CEO of Konnech, an E. Lansing, MI-based company responsible for the software used in managing elections in several states that stored personal information of over 1 million Americans in its database.

AZ Sheriff Mark Lamb with True the Vote founder Catherine Engelbrecht at “The Pit” in August, where they presented their findings related to their extensive research on Konnech to news outlets and independent journalists.

Konnech, much like Dominion, almost immediately sued True the Vote as a way to silence them and keep them from speaking out about the bombshell information they provided to reporters at The Pit related to Konnech and the unlawful transfer of information from America to China.

According to True the Vote investigator Gregg Phillips, the FBI had already been investigating Konnech.

“These were legitimate people who believed that this software posed a national security risk to the United States of America, and they were working with us closely to try to stop this from being in place during the midterms,” Phillips said.

Konnech CEO Eugene Yu

“The focus point was always we needed to remove this software from the election, but taking a step further, there were a lot of other concerns that the bureau had.”

“In fact, the president of this company sits on the board of another election company that is one of the founding members of DHS’s election security task force. So you want to talk about the fox in the hen house? It’s all right there,” Engelbrecht noted about Konnech CEO Eugene Yu’s membership on Votem Corp.’s Board of Advisors.

Furthermore, Phillips added, “The same individual who programmed this election mess, PollChief, was also the lead programmer for the Confucius Institute internal comms [communication] mechanism.”

“Meaning how they exchange data between here and China; this same person built the entire app that runs all of these elections across the United States. This is a red Chinese communist op run against the United States by Chinese operatives, and it’s a disaster.”

The FBI agents indicated that Konnech had already “been on their radar” and that there were “lots of other problems” with the U.S. election company, including “banking issues” and problems involving the company’s overseas operations in “Australia” and “Canada.”

The media brutalized Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips for making accusations against Konnech. Konnech almost immediately sued them for reporting the truth about what they found.

On Tuesday,  the LA County District Attorney’s office announced that Eugene Yu was arrested and taken into custody for suspected theft of information on voters stored on servers in Communist China.

Konnech CEO Eugene Yu

Konnech distributes and sells its proprietary PollChief software, which is an election worker management system that was utilized by the county in the last California election. The software assists with poll worker assignments, communications, and payroll. PollChief requires that workers submit personal identifying information, which is retained by the Konnech.

Under its $2.9 million, five-year contract with the county, Konnech was supposed to securely maintain the data and that only United States citizens and permanent residents have access to it.

District Attorney investigators found that in contradiction to the contract, information was stored on servers in the People’s Republic of China.

The East Lansing Police Department and Ingham County Sheriff’s Office in Michigan also assisted in the investigation.

Konnech CEO was considered a major flight risk when he was caught in his vehicle allegedly heading to the airport with a suitcase ore backpack. Yu had left his cell phone, which could track his movements, at home.

During a Zoom call yesterday, Ingham County Prosecutors Office Unit Chief Nicole Matusko called Mr. Yu a significant flight risk and explained how they believed he was attempting to potentially flee the United States.

Mr. Yu has substantial ties to the country of China.
He maintains relationships with family and friends in China.
He also has extensive and significant business relationships in the country of China.
He also has business relationships with other countries outside of the United States.
In addition, when he was arrested yesterday, he was arrested with a backpack or luggage, and he was, in fact, on his way to the airport. I do not have confirmation as to where he was going, but he was on his way to leaving the state of Michigan.
In addition to having his luggage with him, I was notified yesterday that his cell phone was left at his residence in Meridian Township. Mr. Yu is the owner of a. business or businesses that are technology based. He is a technologically savvy individual, so in our view—leaving his cell phone behind when he was going to another state is suspicious.

It all sounds perfectly normal. We are living in an upside-down world, America, where heroes are being locked up and criminals are being allowed to commit crimes as long as they benefit the Democratic Party.

BREAKING: Schumer Admits To Biden On Hot Mic That Fetterman Hurt His Chances In Midterm Elections During Debate... Admits Democrats Are In Trouble In Other Seats [VIDEO]

On Thursday, Biden landed in New York to campaign for New York Governor Kathy Hochul (D-Ny.), who is facing a surprisingly difficult challenge from Republican Lee Zeldin for her re-election bid.

Biden was greeted by Hochul and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-Ny.) as he exited the plane.

Schumer gave Biden a brief update on the Senate races that could decide which party holds the Senate Majority come January of 2023.

In the key state of Nevada, Schumer said that Democrats are “picking up steam”.

He updated Biden on the state of the Pennsylvania Senate race with a far less optimistic outlook.

He admitted to the President on a hot mic that Fetterman’s debate performance likely hurt his chances at winning, but added the caveat that it “didn’t hurt us too much.”

A post shared by 100% FED UP! (@100percentfedup)

“It looks like the debate didn’t hurt us too much in Pennsylvania as of today,” Schumer, D-N.Y., told President Biden on the tarmac during Biden’s trip to New York on Thursday. “So that’s good.”

Schumer made multiple other shocking admission about key races throughout the country.

He admitted to Biden that Democrats were “going down” in the state of Georgia where Trump-endorsed Herschel Walker is facing off against incumbent Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.)

He seemed dismayed that Georgians would vote for Walker over Warnock.

“The state where we’re going down, though, is Georgia. It’s hard to believe that they will go for Herschel Walker,” Schumer said.

He also appeared to refer to another seat where Democrats are in danger, though the name of the Democratic candidate in danger was not specified.

“That seat, we’re in danger in that seat,” Schumer said. “We’ll see.”

AG Garland Promises to Address “Voter Intimidation” After Armed and Masked Drop Box “Election Observers” (Who Look an Awful Lot Like Fake ‘Patriot Front’ Group) Show Up at Drop Box in AZ [VIDEO]

Americans no longer trust our intelligence agencies, especially after the January 6th incident where people like former Oath Keepers AZ Chapter President Ray Epps, who spent two days calling on Trump supporters to join him at the Capitol instead of at the Ellipse, briefly appeared on the FBI’s Most Wanted list only to disappear once a sufficient number of primarily Trump-supporting Americans were arrested for their role in an armless “insurrection.”

Ray Epps, who directed people to “go inside the Capitol on January 6, 2021,” is a free man today.

So when a group of masked men, wearing khakis and identical jackets, showed up in Washington, DC, on December 4, 2021, and no one had ever heard of them, the radars went up on people like me who are paying attention. The khaki-clad group of similar-sized and aged men marched to the Lincoln Memorial, and then almost as quickly as they came, they marched back to the UHaul trucks that brought them to the event.

The Left immediately made up stories about the group and their ties to “right-wing” extremists and “white supremacy.”

The only problem is…no one on the right has ever heard of these guys. Conservatives, however, seem to think they have a pretty good idea about where this new group came from.

Yesterday, a case was filed in federal court by Hillary Clinton’s lawyer Marc Elias against Clean Elections USA, a grassroots group that openly requests that volunteers help to monitor absentee ballot drop boxes leading up to the November election.  In his lawsuit, the creepy leftist lawyer Marc Elias claims volunteers reportedly tied to the group are allegedly intimidating voters and violating federal law, including the Voting Rights Act.

Epoch Times reported on the lawsuit against Clean Elections USA and its founder, Melody Jennings, that was filed by Marc Elias’s law firm on behalf of the Arizona Alliance for Retired Americans and Voto Latino.

“No person, whether acting under color of law or otherwise, shall intimidate, threaten, or coerce, or attempt to intimidate, threaten, or coerce any person for voting or attempting to vote, or intimidate, threaten, or coerce, or attempt to intimidate, threaten, or coerce any person for urging or aiding any person to vote or attempt to vote,” the law states in part.

Clean Elections USA members and supporters have gathered outside boxes in Maricopa County in recent weeks to watch as people drop off ballots.

Jennings said on social media that people should go to the boxes to act as a “deterrent” against voter fraud.

“We must legally deter people from committing voter fraud. The only way we can do this is to monitor those drop box locations with a team of volunteers. That is why we’re reaching out to patriots like yourself who have similar concerns. In short, we need your help!” the Clean Elections USA website states.

It’s curious that the so-called, elusive election observers who are allegedly tied to this grassroots election integrity group are dressed in almost identical gear (or costumes) worn by the so-called “Patriot Front” group.

It should be noted that Arizona is an open-carry state, and if these two clowns in the photo above have anything to do with the Clean Elections USA group, they have every legal right to be armed according to AZ law.

Obama’s failed pick for Supreme Court Justice Merrick Garland was quick to weigh in on the so-called case of “voter intimidation,” much like when parents objected to the woke education being shoved down their children’s throats and started to show up at school board meetings to make their voices heard, they were quickly threatened by the DOJ threatened. Almost right on cue, America’s dirtiest Attorney General, Merrick Garland, weighed in on the so-called controversy, saying the agency “will not permit voters to be intimidated.”

Democrats must quell any organized activity by crazy Americans who might be organizing to protect the security of our elections.

Where was the DOJ when Stacy Abram’s thugs were intimidating voters on the streets of Atlanta during her failed bid to become Georgia’s governor in 2018? Of course, it’s a rhetorical question.

 

According to Epoch Times, some of the observers told a local reporter in Maricopa County, AZ, that the armed alleged poll observers were with Clean Elections USA.

Yes, you read that correctly; some of the observers told a local reporter that the two individuals (who authorities are still “searching” for) were tied to Clean Elections USA.

There are no reports of the armed observers being identified or found.

Let’s talk about those “armed observers” who were allegedly working with Clean Elections USA.

Local ABC15 reporter Nicole Grigg says her local television station is looking into several individuals watching a voter drop box in Mesa, AZ.

Grigg tweets that she is “told” that the election drop box observers “have magazine clips,” are “dressed in tactical gear,” and are “fully disguised.

Maricopa County’s far-left Sheriff Penzone was asked about the observer’s alleged charge of “voter intimidation,” he responded by saying he would step up security around drop boxes. In the second video below, you can see the sheriffs measuring the distance between election observers peacefully seated in folding chairs next to the drop boxes and the actual drop box to ensure they are following election law.

So, where are the two people dressed in khakis who look very much like members of the “Patriot Front” group, which many still believe is a fake group?

The far-left Maricopa County sheriff and the spokesperson for the radical progressive group “Voto Latino” warn about “folks” who are “creating problems” in advance of the election.

Maricopa Co. Sheriff Paul Penzone

 Yahoo News reports – “The more folks there are that are creating problems, the more deputies that you’re going to see on the streets focused on this versus burglaries and crimes against children and robberies and all the stuff we should be doing,” Sheriff Paul Penzone said at a press conference on election security.

“But we’ll come, and we’ll babysit polling sites because people have to misbehave if that’s what we have to do to protect democracy.”

“The tactics being used by Clean Elections USA aren’t just profoundly dangerous to voters in Arizona, they’re an affront to the fundamental principles of our democracy,” Maria Teresa Kumar, president and CEO of Voto Latino said in a statement.

In his ongoing efforts to make the observation of the upcoming election nearly impossible for election observers and poll challengers, Marc Elias is seeking a temporary restraining order prohibiting Clean Elections USA from gathering “within sight of drop boxes” and from following or recording voters or prospective voters at or around drop boxes.

Clean Elections USA would also be barred from “training, organizing, or directing” people to monitor drop boxes if the order is imposed.

On October 13, Reuters warned that thousands of “stop the steal” supporters were being trained as election observers. With absolutely no evidence to support warnings of threats of violence coming from these everyday Americans, Reuter resorted to writing about an incident in July where dozens of angry election watchers pounded on the windows inside the El Paso County Clerk’s office and recorded election officials with cell phones during an election recount.

Reuters, a publication that frequently acts as a mouthpiece for the DNC, appears to be part of a coordinated effort between the fake news media and the Democrat Party that is pushing a false narrative about how Americans should fear violence from Republicans or MAGA supporters leading up to and surrounding the mid-term elections.

Using buzz words like “multiple incidents,” with no links back to any evidence or previous reports, and “intimidation,” which appears to be the keyword in the Maricopa County case, and an “army” of election observers, which of course, falsely denotes a militant approach used by election observers. And as usual, the Reuters article ties up their ridiculous article filled with propaganda with the usual disclaimer about “Trump’s false theories” surrounding the 2020 election and how they were never proven.

As the United States enters the final stretch to November’s midterm elections, Reuters documented multiple incidents of intimidation involving an expanding army of election observers, many of them recruited by prominent Republican Party figures and activists echoing Trump’s false theories about election fraud. The widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election, as alleged by Trump and his supporters, was never proven.

As Republican and Independent poll challengers and observers form groups across the county to fight back against organized voter fraud, radical, far-left lawyers like Marc Elias are making their way across America and cherry-picking cases to defend the radicals who are attempting to tie their hands.

Democrat Election Lawyer Marc Elias

In Michigan, Elias attempted to join a lawsuit against the state’s dishonest Democrat SOS Jocelyn Benson for making up her own set of new rules that would prevent poll challengers from doing their jobs.  Why was Marc Elias so concerned about Michigan election poll challengers?

MI SOS Jocelyn Benson

The Soros-funded MI SOS Jocelyn Benson appears to be part of the plot by the Democrat Party to create a false narrative about violence leading up to the election. In one of her videos in a series called “#BensonsDirtyDeeds, MI GOP SOS candidate Kristina Karamo calls out Benson for lying about “threats” of “violence” leading up to and surrounding the November 2022 election.

Watch:

Instead of addressing the 13-minute-long compilation of Detroit drop box surveillance video obtained by the Gateway Pundit and viewed by MC4EI, a top-notch election integrity group and 100 Percent Fed Up, MI Sos Jocelyn Benson would rather create fairy tales about threats of violence leading up to the election.

Finally, Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone said that the department has received two suspicious activity criminal reports but that no charges have been filed and the observers have not committed crimes.

“It doesn’t meet the threshold for a crime. This is a free nation. The Second Amendment is as important as the first. So that in and of itself does not constitute a crime,” he told reporters when asked about people being dressed in tactical gear and carrying guns.

Arizona law bars being armed or trying to persuade voters within 75 feet of a voting location.

The federal government, though, may decide that the people violated federal law, Penzone added. His agency is “working closely” with the Department of Justice.

Biden’s Press Secretary Dithers On Biden Comparing Georgia’s Election Laws To Jim Crow Despite Record-High Turnout [VIDEO]

Earlier this year, President Biden called election integrity laws passed in Georgia “Jim Crow in the 21st Century” before threatening action at the federal level to prevent Georgia from setting its own election laws.

CNN Reported–

“President Joe Biden on Friday called a sweeping elections bill signed into law in Georgia “Jim Crow in the 21st Century” and “an atrocity,” saying the Justice Department is “taking a look” at the measure.

Asked if there was anything the White House could do to protect voting rights in Georgia, Biden told reporters on a tarmac in Delaware, “We’re working on that right now. We don’t know quite exactly what we can do at this point. The Justice Department’s taking a look as well.”
A spokesperson for the Justice Department told CNN earlier Friday that the agency is “aware of the law,” but had no further comment.”

The comments already appear to be blowing up in Biden’s face as Georgia is set to have record-high turnout in the upcoming midterm elections, with large numbers of absentee ballots already being returned.

Biden’s Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, was asked how Georgia could be engaged in voter suppression due to the record-high turnout numbers.

She dithered in response but ultimately stood by Biden’s comments.

When the reporter asked for the White House to provide specific evidence of voter suppression in Georgia, she could not comment on specific elections or ‘the data’ regarding those elections, refusing to provide any specific evidence to bolster Biden’s claims.

She was also asked if the White House had ‘observed’ any instances of voter suppression in the state.  She dodged the question and instead chose to discuss executive orders Biden signed to ‘make voting easier’.

You have to hand it to Pierre, defending Biden’s idiotic statements can’t be an easy job.

Hillary Clinton Claims Republicans Are Planning To Steal 2024 Presidential Election, Offers No Evidence [VIDEO]

Democrats, who have called election integrity groups concerned about problems during the 2020 election “dangerous,” accusing them of “undermining democracy,” are rallying behind Hillary Clinton as she claims, without any evidence, that Republicans will attempt to “steal” the 2024 presidential elections.

In Clinton’s hope to wrangle up money for state legislative races, she took to social media to say that something is keeping her up at night and that we need to look ahead, “Right-wing extremists already have a plan to literally steal the next presidential election, and they are not making a secret of it. The right-wing controlled Supreme Court may be poised to rule on giving state legislatures, yes you heard me that -correctly, the power to overturn presidential elections.”

 

Twitter responses cast Clinton as a chronic “election denier” who complained about election integrity when she lost her 2016 run to Donald Trump and as the first to deny the result of an election over two years away. “Hillary Clinton wins the prize for being the first Democrat to deny the 2024 election results.”

 

Judge Jeanine Pirro asked Clinton how the stealing is done, pointing at the fake dossier and the ongoing Russia-gate investigation, “By the way – since you are the queen of fake dossiers and an expert in untrustworthiness, tell us how this stealing is done…”

 

Clinton’s viral video tweet went on to warn people about what would happen if the Supreme Court sent rulings back to the State legislatures, showing obvious disdain for the “outdated” electoral college while doing so,

“Just think, if that happens, the 2024 presidential election could be decided not by the popular vote or even the anachronistic electoral college but by the state legislatures, many of them Republican-controlled.”

She went on to encourage Democrats to give money to Indivisible. This group is setting up a campaign called “crush the coup” and asking people to donate to state legislature races in six critical states with highly competitive races. She ended with a warning that contributed dollars could decide those state winners and also the presidential winner of the 2024 election and that the call for funds could not be more important or urgent. Interestingly the six states are: Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, and Arizona. All  six are states that had serious election issues in 2020 and were the deciding factor in Biden’s election.

FACTS DON’T LIE: Dems Push Big LIE About Potential “Violence and Disruption” Around Upcoming Election—So Far, Only Conservatives Have Been Shot and Viciously Beaten [VIDEO]

We recently reported about an 84-yr-old woman in Michigan who was shot by a homeowner while she was knocking on doors to educate voters about the dangerous abortion til the moment of birth Proposal 3 that’s on the ballot in Michigan’s upcoming November election.

Leftist Extremism: 84-Yr-Old Woman Knocking On Doors To Implore Residents To Vote “No” on MI Prop 3 Which Would Change State Constitution To Allow Abortion Up Until Birth, Is Shot By Homeowner

Last night, it was reported by FL Senator Marco Rubio that one of his volunteers had been taken by ambulance to the hospital after he was attacked and brutally beaten in a neighborhood while knocking on doors.

 

Conservatives are outraged over the uptick in violence against innocent Americans for simply expressing their support for Republicans.

Hollywood actor Kevin Sorbo responded to the vile beating of the young man wearing a “Marco Rubio” t-shirt in a tweet where he asks, “Remind me again who the party of peace is?”

MI Republican SOS candidate Kristina Karamo blasts her Democrat opponent MI Democrat SOS Jocelyn Benson, for pushing a big lie about “violence and disruption on Election Day.”

In her “Phantom Threats” video (#17 in a series of over 20 videos exposing the Soros-funded MI SOS Jocelyn Benson), MI GOP SOS candidate Kristina Karamo asks why Benson appears to be part of a dishonest plot being pushed by Democrats that warns Americans about Republicans causing issues on Election Day 2022.

Karamo points out that recently, Michigan’s dishonest SOS Jocelyn Benson appeared on the morning talk show circuit to push the big lie about violence coming from Republicans in advance of the election. In her video message, the outspoken Republican SOS candidate asks why her opponent is “stirring the pot?”

In a short clip embedded in the video, CBS’s Face the Nation host Major Garrett asks what election officials across America are “most worried about” on Election Day. Benson, who was clearly fully prepared to respond to Garrett’s staged question, responded, “Violence and  disruption on Election Day and the days thereafter.”

The Soros-funded MI SOS Jocelyn Benson ignores the violence and chaos created by the Left in the days, weeks, and even months before the 2020 election by radical groups like Antifa and BLM that sowed division and hatred among Americans.

So, why are Democrats, with no evidence to support their claims, pushing the big lie about “violence and disruption” on Election Day and the days after the election when the ONLY violence we see so far is extreme violence from the Left against conservatives? Do they have something like a Jan 6 event planned in a specific state like Michigan that will cause Americans to look away from questionable election activities or results on November 9th?

Will America’s dishonest media report about the clear uptick in violence by Leftist extremists against conservatives or will they ignore it in their efforts to help Democrats like MI SOS Jocelyn Benson push their big lie?

ABUSING HIS POWER for Mid-Term Election Outcomes: Energy And Environment Atty Warns BIDEN Is Breaking Law By Releasing Strategic Petroleum Reserve—Making America Vulnerable To Attack [VIDEO]

Irina Tsukerman, an attorney, analyst, and a member of the American Bar Association’s Energy and Environment Committee, is calling Joe Biden’s release of the strategic oil reserves illegal.

She said Biden is violating the Energy Policy and Conservation Act, which directs that strategic oil reserves can only be released to the market when there’s an emergency and that emergency caused high energy prices. She warned that a low oil reserve puts America in a vulnerable situation, giving leverage to the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and terrorists.

“We won’t have the reserve that we need to handle every emergency. It sends a signal to terrorists, criminals, and bad actors that we’re low in emergency oil supply,” she said. “It also sends a signal to foreign actors to manipulate oil supplies.”

Irina Tsukerman said Biden is using the reserves for bolstering the Democrat nominees rather than an emergency,

“He’s abusing his power and he’s overreaching his authority on this matter because he believes that American voters will vote against Democrats in midterm elections largely on basis of gas prices. So he believes that if you provide additional supply quickly, people do not blame the Democrats for the high gas prices.”

Americans would like Government officials to be held accountable. It is past time for Democrats to join Republicans in opposing Biden’s release of the reserve and push him to re-open American gas and oil production.

And while Joe Biden denied that he was using the reserve for political gain, The White House announced in March that the Energy Department would release a total of 180 million barrels, at a rate of 1 million barrels of crude oil per day for six months. Biden has consistently made a point of taking credit for gas prices going down while ignoring that they skyrocketed after he took office and immediately closed the Keystone Pipeline, giving America an ample energy supply. The drop in price at the pump comes from using our strategic reserve rather than better policies, making price cuts temporary. But Democrats are desperate to hold as many house and senate seats as possible, while national security is just an afterthought.

 

Biden denied that the release of the strategic reserve was politically motivated. According to The Epoch Times, he said,

“It’s not politically motivated at all. It’s motivated to make sure that I continue to push on what I’ve been pushing on. And that is making sure there’s enough oil that’s being pumped by the companies so that we have the ability to be able to produce enough gas that we need here at home, oil we need here at home, and, at the same time, keep moving in the direction of providing for alternative energy. That’s what I’ve been doing.”

Ted Cruz said the skyrocketing gas prices are a direct result of “Joe Biden’s war on American oil and gas.”

 

Republican said they have a strategy for improving America’s energy future. Rep Bice says two years ago, America was energy independent until Joe Biden and the Democrats took office and started a war on American energy, “The price of gasoline, natural gas and electricity has skyrocketed for hardworking Americans, jeopardize our national security and making us dependent on foreign adversaries for energy.” She said Republicans would lower the cost of gas and energy if they took back the House during mid-term elections.

Rep. Jim Jordan warns Americans to prepare for a “cold and expensive winter in Joe Biden’s America.” Natural gas increased by 28%, and heating oil by 27%.

Google Skews Search Results Toward Democrat Candidates in Advance of Election According to Watchdog Group

The Media Research Center (MRC), a conservative content analysis group, has called out Google for manipulating its search engine results to favor Democratic candidates running in critical Senate states.

The MRC has publically asked Google to “stop its war on democracy” and “provide algorithmic transparency” after they discovered that the campaign websites of 10 Republicans appeared on search result pages significantly lower down than their Democratic opponent’s sites.

Seven of these Republican websites weren’t even on the first page of Google search results.

The races analyzed by the MRC included 12 states: Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Washington, and Wisconsin.

The MRC commented on these findings, saying, “Google’s bias is undeniable when shown in comparison to other search engines. Bing and DuckDuckGo both show, with one exception, all 12 Democrat and Republican senate candidate’s websites within the top five organic search results.”

The MRC continued, insisting that Google must be investigated for its apparent search bias:

“The Media Research Center is calling upon Google to stop its war on democracy.

To regain the trust of conservatives it must provide algorithmic transparency to show that liberal groups and candidates are treated the same way as conservatives. MRC is also calling upon members of Congress to take action protecting Americans’ free speech liberties. Congress should investigate Google’s search bias and its results on the midterm elections.”

Google is also being called out by the GOP for political bias on its email platform, Gmail. A study conducted by researchers at North Carolina State University revealed that Gmail marks almost 70% of right-wing messages as spam, compared to just 10% of left-wing messages.

Additional research on Gmail’s biased programming was done by the RNC. Ronna McDaniel, the chairwoman of the RNC, tweeted back in January about Google’s impact on their fundraising emails that were sent to Gmail inboxes.

McDaniel said, “Big Tech’s bias is out of control. Every single month – for several months now – Google has systematically attacked the RNC’s email fundraising during important donation days at the end of the month. Our emails go from strong inbox delivery (90-100%) down to 0%.”

These spam filters that Google has installed have cost the RNC an estimated $2 billion in donations since just 2019.

 

Google has denied these claims and has announced it is pushing a pilot program to “provide more transparency into the process.”

“We do not filter emails based on political affiliation,” Google insisted in a statement to Fox News.

BREAKING: Michigan’s Dishonest SOS Jocelyn Benson Appeals Judge’s Ruling That Forces Her To Remove Unlawful Changes to Her Made-Up Election Training Manual...Her Reason For Asking is LAUGHABLE

On Oct 10, we reported about five individuals in Michigan who sued Michigan’s dishonest Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, and MI Director of Elections Jonathan Brater over their sudden creation of a new set of rules titled “The Appointments, Rights, and Duties of Poll Challengers and Election Workers,” only months before Michigan’s August 2, 2022, Primary Election.

Jonathan Brater and Jocelyn Benson

The lawsuit, which was filed by Attorney Ann Howard in the MI Court of Claims, was joined together with a similar lawsuit filed by the RNC. The suit asked for an emergency injunction to compel MI SOS Jocelyn Benson and Jonathan Brater to rescind the changes to their newly created  “guidance” for poll challengers that was first implemented in the August 2022 Primary Election.

On the day of the Primary Election in Detroit, under the new guidance of MI Soros-funded SOS Jocelyn Benson and Jonathan Brater, an unknown third-party security group by the name of “ICU,” threw Braden Giacobazzi, an Independent poll challenger out of the former TCF Center (now the Huntington Place) for asking too many (legitimate) questions about ballots and the processes that he claims were not being followed. Braden’s story can be found here.

The new set of rules by Jocelyn Benson, the Soros-funded MI Democrat SOS, essentially ties the hands of poll challengers who have a constitutional right to examine the absentee ballot counting process. It is just one more example of how Benson consistently pushes the envelope and goes outside of the bounds of her job description by restricting members of the Republican Party, who she treats like an enemy, from overseeing the absentee ballot counting process.

Last week, MI Court of Claims Judge Brock Swartzle accepted the request of two out-of-state lawyers from Marc Elias’ Law Firm lawyers who asked to join the suit on behalf of the Defendants Jocelyn Benson and Jonathan Brater. It’s curious why Hillary Clinton’s favorite lawyer felt obligated to get involved in a lawsuit in Michigan that essentially tied the hands of election poll challengers and prevented them from having a direct conversation or filing an objection with election officials at the counting board where they’re observing.

Hillary Clinton lawyer Marc Elias

Today, Judge Swarzle offered his opinion. In his opinion, the MI Court of Claims judge wrote that MI SOS Benson and Jonathan Brater “have authority to issue instructional guidance, but they do not have the authority to issue rules with the force and effect of law, apart from those promulgated through notice-and-comment rulemaking. To the extent that defendants have issued an unpromulgated rule in the guise of an “instruction,” they have exceeded their lawful authority under the Michigan Election Law and APA.”

In his ruling, Judge Swartzle reminded Benson of her job description as it relates to MI Election Law:

MCL 168.31(1)(c) adds that the Secretary of State shall [p]ublish and furnish for the use in each election precinct before each state primary and election a manual of instructions that includes specific instructions on assisting voters in casting their ballots,directions on the location of voting stations in polling places,procedures and forms for processing challenges, and procedures on prohibiting campaigning in the polling places as prescribed in this act.

Michigan SOS Jocelyn Benson was also found to have overstepped her authority in several ways. Here is a list of five decisions Judge Swarzle made in favor of the Plaintiffs:

#1: MI SOS Jocelyn Benson cannot prevent poll challengers from bringing their cell phones into a room where absentee ballots are being counted

The Court is cognizant of, and frankly shares, defendants’ concerns about the security of absentee-ballot counting. But there is nothing in the Michigan Election Law that precludes a challenger from merely possessing an electronic device in the AVCB facility. Nor have defendants promulgated a rule through public notice-and-comment rulemaking that might have given them the lawful authority to impose such a ban. Prohibiting electronic devices in the AVCB facility might be a good idea, but before a good idea can become law or have legal force and effect, that idea must be embodied within an enacted statute or promulgated rule.

#2. Election workers, by law, must permit and record ANY and ALL objections made by poll challengers related to absentee ballots.

#3. Election poll challengers cannot be told they are unable to address concerns directly with election inspectors or be told they must make challenges or objections related to ballots or the processing of ballots with Jocelyn Benson’s made-up “Challenger Liaisons”

From the May 2022 Manual:

 “Challengers must not communicate with election inspectors other than the challenger liaison or the challenger liaison’s designee unless otherwise instructed by the challenger liaison or a member of the clerk’s staff.”

The manual adds:

 “Challengers must not communicate with election inspectors who are not the challenger liaison unless otherwise instructed by the challenger liaison or a member of the clerk’s staff.” 

If the challenger violates these provisions, the challenger is subject to a warning, and repeated violations may lead to ejection of the challenger.

Plaintiffs argue that the manual’s limitation on which inspectors the challengers may interact with violates MCL 168.733(1)(e), which provides that a challenger may bring certain issues to “an election inspector’s attention” without restriction to a particular inspector. The authority to designate a “challenger liaison” is absent from the Michigan Election Law–in fact, the very label appears nowhere in statute.

Defendants have not presented this Court with any statute, common law, case law, or promulgated rule that gives them the authority to restrict with which election inspector a challenger can communicate.

The judge appeared to admonish Benson over her made-up role of “challenger liaison”:

Our Legislature provided a challenger the right to communicate to “an” election inspector, and defendants cannot artificially restrict that to a designated inspector. Whether it makes sense to have such a liaison is one thing; it is another thing entirely to require, at the risk of being ejected, a challenger to speak to only the designated liaison.

This provision of the May 2022 Manual goes well beyond what is provided in law and impermissibly restricts a challenger’s ability to bring certain issues to any inspector’s attention.

Accordingly, the manual must be revised to make clear that a challenger need not bring an issue to the attention of only a liaison challenger, but instead can bring such issue to the attention of any election inspector at the applicable location.

#4. Benson does not have the authority, through her new guidance, to have poll challengers thrown out of the counting facility for asking too many questions.

#5. Election poll challengers can be credentialed on Election Day and are not required to fill out a special form created by the SOS office.

The judge explains:

Our Legislature has set forth the exhaustive list of evidence for validating a credential, and if a purported credential includes the three items in MCL 168.732, then that purported credential fully complies with the Michigan Election Law–nothing more is required.

Judge Swarzle ruled that Benson and Brater’s new “guidance” for poll challengers is simply a list of suggestions and that she has no legal authority to change election law or the rules set forth by the MI legislature regarding poll challengers.

Instead of correcting her new “guidance” that strips poll challengers of their ability to do their job, Benson is now asking the courts to reverse the decision and give her the ability to unlawfully prevent volunteer poll challengers from watching the absentee ballot counting process.

Patrice Johnson of PIME Pure Integrity Michigan Elections and guest writer for 100 Percent Fed Up, explains:

Frivolous. Riding out the clock. Obstruction—These words come to mind as a person reads the appeal filed Friday, Oct. 21, by Michigan’s Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and Jonathan Brater, Bureau of Elections director. Michigan’s Executive Branch lost a case, a big one. Now Benson and Brater are claiming they should have been told sooner that they were breaking the law. They don’t have time to fix their misinformation, they say, and notify clerks in time for the November 8 election, more than two weeks away.

The protests stretch the bounds of credulity, considering that the SOS/BOE’s defective elections manual supplanted an accurate one published by the secretary’s predecessor. Even if ignorance of the law were an excuse, which it is not, that argument won’t wash either Benson holds a law degree and has taught law, plus her office employs hundreds of lawyers. They-should-have-told-us-sooner borders on ludicrous, coming from a Soros-backed secretary who issued rapid-fire, 50-page instructional changes to elections clerks into the final days leading up to the 2020 election.

Michigan Court of Claims Judge Brock Swartzle

On Thursday, Oct. 20, Michigan Court of Claims Judge Brock Swartzle ordered Benson to either “(1) rescind the May 2022 [Election] Manual in its entirety; (2) revise the May 2022 Manual to comply with this Opinion and Order or (3) revise an earlier iteration of the manual to comply with this opinion and order.” The ruling came after the judge combined two near-simultaneous court filings, one from the Republican Party and another from citizens Phil O’Halloran, M.D., Bob Cushman, Braden Giacobazzi, Penny Crider, and Ken Crider. Both suits claimed the secretary’s May 2022 elections manual violated the rights of poll challengers and infringed on their ability to ensure the integrity of elections.

The ruling came after the judge combined two near-simultaneous court filings, one from the Republican Party and another from citizens Phil O’Halloran, M.D., Bob Cushman, Braden Giacobazzi, Penny Crider, and Ken Crider. Both suits claimed the secretary’s May 2022 elections manual violated the rights of poll challengers and infringed on their ability to ensure the integrity of elections.

MI GOP poll challengers were locked out of the absentee counting room in 2020 at the TCF Center in Detroit. The image below was taken by a cell phone to document the illegal act by election workers.

Key provisions of the court ruling include the removal of restrictions upon poll challenger assignments, with whom poll challengers can communicate, the use of electronic devices by poll challengers, and reasserted the need for poll inspectors to record all challenges made by poll challengers.

“This is by no means a heavy administrative burden for an agency with the resources possessed by the office of SOS,” said O’Halloran, a practicing medical doctor and one of the plaintiffs.

Point of perspective: The Michigan Attorney General’s office employs 250 Assistant Attorneys Generals, and the legislature and governor recently approved a blockbuster $76 billionFY23 budget.

“Based upon the judge’s ruling, aren’t there problems with the 2020 written guidance as well?” O’Halloran asked. “Should that be specifically mentioned since [Benson] cannot simply revert back to that previous illegal guidance?”

Pattern of lawbreaking

In light of three previous court rulings against Benson and others settled before going to court, one could argue a disturbing pattern of lawbreaking has emerged.

The Genetski ruling in March 2021 determined that Benson had arbitrarily—translated, illegally—neutered signature matching laws when she told clerks to assume all signatures were valid. Benson’s misinformation violated the Michigan Administrative Procedures Act, the court found.

Then, the Davis Ruling smacked the secretary down for unlawfully restricting the right to open carry of firearms at all polling places.

Third, Michigan House Representative Steve Carra won a settlement from Benson after a court found she broke the law when she mandated poll challengers to stand six feet away from the election inspectors. She had no legal authority to prevent the challengers from performing their jobs, the judge declared.

The Johnson settlement stopped Benson from allowing the acceptance of absentee ballots after 8 p.m. on Election Day.

“It is a sad pattern of behavior rather than an isolated occurrence,” Patrick Colbeck, president of MIGrassroots Alliance, said.

No end in sight

Six days ago, Pure Integrity Michigan Elections lobbed a seven-day warning over SOS Benson’s bow. Her office is currently providing legally unauthorized ‘misinformation’ to election inspectors (paid workers) on 11 distinct issues, PIME claims.

On Oct. 14, a member of the PIME alerted the East Lansing City clerk that she, Benson, the since-resigned MSU president, and Ingham County Clerk Byrum were violating at least three state laws in their opening of satellite, one-stop voting locations on the MSU campus.

Ongoing concerns.

“I am worried she will release new guidance that still breaks the law in fun new ways, and we won’t be able to challenge it before November 8 since the judge ruled only on the specific ways she broke the law in the primary,” O’Halloran said.

Braden Giacobazzi, on the leadership team of the Election Integrity Force, expressed similar concern. “There is no excuse for not having guidance after four years in office, especially since she could technically just copy and paste the existing law and be basically done with the guidance if she wanted to.”

In regard to the secretary’s expression of lack of time, Giacobazzi said, “She could simply use the law as guidance rather than write another corrupted manual herself, which she is prone to do. There is no excuse for not having legally faithful guidance four years into office. Just cite Michigan law and be done with it.” EIF and Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity (MC4EI) offer poll challenger training.

Plaintiff Penny Crider is turning her focus to alert law enforcement to the judge’s changes. “It would be wise to put something together for the supervisors that are on the floor at TCF and the other locations.” The TCF Center in Detroit recently changed its name to Huntington Place.

Crider indicated that plans are underway to set up a website, so people can readily find the court orders and to notify the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association and the Police Officers Association of Michigan.

The video below, taken by 100 Percent Fed Up, shows the very respectful interaction between the Detroit Police Officer and Braden Giacobazzi, who actually cites election law and explains how the ICU agents hired by the Detroit City Clerk’s office were violating election law when they threw him out of the counting facility on Primary Election Day in August 2022.

MAINSTREAM MEDIA MALPRACTICE? Detroit Free Press Gets Fact-Checked Over Its Defense of Dishonest Soros-Funded MI SOS Jocelyn Benson, Who’s Being Sued AGAIN For Election Shenanigans

Guest Post by Becky Behrends, M.D. and VP of Research for Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity (MC4EI.com)

MI Dem SOS Jocelyn Benson

A recent Detroit Free Press article by Clara Hendrickson (this is not the first time Dr. Becky Behrends has destroyed the leftist-trained “journalist,” see links here and here for more) discussed the Republican lawsuit which is seeking to rescind the new election poll challenger guidelines from Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson. The misinformation in this article needs to be addressed. So, let’s get the facts straight.

1. “Republican supporters of Donald Trump flooded the counting board (in 2020 at Detroit TCF center) demanding the count be stopped.”

It wasn’t just “allies of former President Trump” who demanded that the count be stopped. There were dozens of certified GOP and non-partisan poll challengers who also sought a pause, not an indefinite cessation of the count — which Democrats and media have incessantly and falsely intimated to the uninformed. It was “stop the count”, not “stop the vote”.

The challengers were appalled at the way the votes were being counted and the way that Michigan election law was being violated without recourse. These challengers, who are every bit as entitled under the law as poll workers to be present when the votes are counted, demanded that their right to observe the count be upheld. When it was not, they requested a halt to the count until their lawyers could obtain an emergency injunction.

2. “The organization [Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity- MC4EI] has falsely claimed that the 2020 election was stolen in Detroit”

Here the author refers to the 60-page MC4EI report, “TCF Timeline: the 2020 General Election in Detroit”. She then cites a legal boilerplate disclaimer on the MC4EI website to hint at the report’s falsehood. The author of the TCF Timeline report invites Ms. Hendrickson to refute any substantive claim in that report [O’Halloran, P. pers. comm] Curiously, despite her flatly stating that the report’s allegations of a rigged election in Detroit are false, she has, to date, presented no evidence of their falsehood. All Ms. Hendrickson can do is fall back on the “illusion of truth” effect, which essentially is “if you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes accepted as truth”. Media parrots keep repeating “the 2020 election was not rigged” so that it becomes truth in their minds and, they hope, in the minds of the public. No facts, no investigation.

3. “One of the plaintiffs involved in that lawsuit − Braden Giacobazzi − was kicked out of the counting room in Detroit in the August 2022 primary, where he served as an election challenger.”

Whether intentionally or through ignorance (laziness, maybe?) The Detroit Free Press conceals from the reader the fact that Challenger Giacobazzi was assaulted and physically removed during the lawful performance of his duties – potentially a felony.

MCL 168.734 of Michigan Election Law grants broad protection to the rights of all poll challengers:

[whoever] shall refuse or fail to provide such challenger with conveniences for the performance of the duties expected of him, shall, upon conviction, be punished by a fine not exceeding $1,000.00, or by imprisonment in the state prison not exceeding 2 years, or by both such fine and imprisonment in the discretion of the court.

Allegations by the chief security officer that Giacobazzi was removed for repeatedly calling poll workers “names” were preposterous and were roundly refuted by multiple witnesses.

Giacobazzi was, however, calling attention to the fact that more than one of the electronic poll books displayed icons proving that they were, at that time, connected to the internet. This concern – that elements of the election management system were left vulnerable to outside electronic access – has been aggressively contested by those who claim 2020 was “the most secure election in history.”

4. “Officials who placed cardboard over the windows said challengers videotaping and photographing the count intimidated election workers.”

Perhaps in deference to her colleagues, Ms. Hendrickson omits the fact that a large phalanx of her fellow journalists were standing inside of those windows, much closer to the election workers with an unobstructed view, training cameras on the election proceedings that were far more powerful than the mobile phones of the GOP challengers. But the election workers were only “intimidated” by statutorily authorized challengers who were unlawfully denied entry, while reporters enjoyed a ringside seat.

This is just another example of mainstream media malpractice and their failure to report honestly and accurately.

What Changed? After Two Years Of Denying Election Security Problems Far-Left Politico Admits Machines Can Be Hacked

After two years of denying that elections have security vulnerabilities, Politico announced Friday that there are security issues involving cellular modems transmitting precinct information. According to POLITICO, hackable cellular modems are used in Florida, Illinois, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, and Minnesota. Rhode Island uses them across the state, and Washington, D.C., uses them citywide.

Politico published the following:

There’s a largely overlooked hacking target that could help those who want to sow doubt about vote tallies in the November midterms: cellular modems that transmit unofficial election-night results.

The modems, which send vote data from precincts to central offices using cellphone networks, help election officials satisfy the public’s demand for rapid results. But putting any networking connection on an election system opens up new ways to attack it that don’t require physical access to machines, and security experts say the risks aren’t worth the rewards.

“You’re counting on a bunch of infrastructures to deliver data back and forth, and it’s well within the capabilities of nation-state hackers to break into that infrastructure,” said Dan Wallach, a Rice University computer science professor who has repeatedly exposed flaws in election equipment.

As this Twitter user noted, it’s strange that for the past two years, it was considered “misinformation” and “conspiracy theory” to report the issues with voting machines that can be connected to the internet, as well as other vulnerabilities in the elections. So is Politico’s sudden change of heart signaling a shift in the narrative? And are the elections secure? Or is it a political game for the messaging to change as we go into another cycle?

The Gateway Pundit has been drawing attention to many election night issues, from video footage of mules dropping off ballots to “unexplainable” problems at voting precincts. They noted that Politico is now interested in drawing attention to “the voting machine hacking threat you probably haven’t heard about: Modems help election officials report results quickly, but security experts say they’re too dangerous to trust.” Mike Lindell, Sidney Powell, Rudy Guiliani, President Trump, and countless others have drawn attention to election security and voting machine hacking vulnerabilities and, as a result, have had their lives turned upside down.

The timing is strange as elections are now just weeks out with little time to make significant changes to how most states transmit voting information from precinct to central office.

MI Lawmakers Pen Letter to Media Outlets Demanding They Stop Running Ads LYING About Proposal 2—Constitutional Change That Will Make Cheating in Elections EASIER and PERMANENT

Democrats in Michigan have pulled a fast one on voters, and several members of the Michigan Legislature are calling them out in a letter demanding media outlets STOP running ads filled with lies and deceit about Proposal 2, which appears on the ballot in the upcoming election.

Even the name of the proposal, “PROMOTE THE VOTE,” is deceitful and should, instead, be called, “STEAL THE VOTE!”

The truth is, Michigan voters need to dump Proposal 2, “Promote STEAL the Vote,”  that will change their Constitution and forever legalize voter fraud in their state. They have a chance to dump the Democrat-led proposal into the trash bin of election history and stop this attempt to allow billionaires to take over our elections and make voter ID a thing of the past while encouraging stay-at-home voting.

Here is the outstanding letter from conservative MI lawmakers who are fighting to stop the lies about Proposal 2, that if passed, will making cheating in elections easier and permanent.

Dear Michigan Voters,

We, the undersigned, are issuing this letter in opposition to the disinformation tactics, illicit behavior, and threats to democracy coming from a group called Promote the Vote 2022.

The advertisements sanctioned by Promote the Vote 2022 in favor of the Proposal 2 ballot measure are incredibly deceptive, intentionally misleading voters into believing that the measure would add voter ID provisions to the State Constitution. On the contrary, the measure explicitly makes mandatory voter ID laws unconstitutional and allows individuals to sign affidavits or produce easily-forgeable receipts attesting to their identity in order to gain access to a ballot and vote in elections.

Furthermore, Proposal 2 does nothing to ensure that mail-in and absentee ballots cannot be received and turned in without providing voter ID. This allows for the mass mailing of absentee ballots without any sort of verification or standard to ensure transparency. It would also increase unsafe ballot boxes funded by private money, allowing billionaire special interests to buy our elections. Proposal 2 essentially amends the State Constitution to legalize voter fraud and make election integrity completely untenable.

The organizers behind Proposal 2 are conflating their efforts with the efforts of Secure MI Vote, a wholly separate ballot campaign put forth earlier this year to compel the state legislature into enacting mandatory voter ID laws. Proposal 2 was written to invalidate Secure MI Vote as a way to stop mandatory voter ID and other popular, common sense reforms and does so via constitutional amendment—making these wholesale changes to our election system virtually impossible to be overturned.

Opinion polls have consistently shown that voter ID laws are among the most popular in the country, gaining a large percentage of support among all ideologies and ethnicities. Many first-world nations throughout the world require voter ID, and these laws, when enforced, impose no undue barriers upon voting. If this campaign of disinformation waged by Promote the Vote 2022 is not illegal, it is certainly immoral and reprehensible, and it is occurring because they understand that Proposal 2 would be soundly rejected on its merits.

We, the undersigned, are calling every media outlet to discontinue running these advertisements from Promote the Vote 2022 immediately. Media outlets must refuse to be complicit with a cynical campaign that is deceiving Michigan residents and attempting to coerce them into voting against their priorities and interests. Promote the Vote 2022’s actions demonstrate a textbook example of the worst our political system has to offer, and this assault on our Constitutional Republic ought to be rejected forcefully at the ballot box in this year’s midterm elections.

Respectfully,

Senator Jim Runestad, Rep. Matt Maddock, Rep. Steve Carra, Rep. Daire Rendon, Rep. Brad Paquette, and Rep. Ryan Berman

 

“Fakebook” founder, Mark Zuckerberg, got away with it once with his financial influence peddling in the 2020 General Election, infamously known as “Zuckbucks.”

As the Republican outcry over this became a bit too hot, Zuckerberg announced in April 2022 that he would not be doing the same thing in 2022 ie, funneling money into elections.

In fact, as of mid-September, 24 states have passed laws banning the private funding of elections. Twelve counties have done so also. Livingston County, Michigan, was the second county nationwide to do so.

Many Republican voters do not even realize that Proposal 2, known as the Right to Voting Policies Amendment, will also allow private donations to fund elections! And if this proposal is passed, it will be added as an amendment to the state constitution! Permanent!! Extremely hard to undo!!

In a recent Detroit Free Press article, reporter Clara Hendrickson stated that both Democratic and Republican-leaning communities received Zuckbucks election grants in 2020. Thus, this proves there was no partisan purchasing of the election. In fact, she pointed out that a GOP-appointed judge dismissed a lawsuit over Zuckbucks because all communities that applied for the grant money received it, whether Democrat or Republican.

So, why the fuss? Here is why.

A lawsuit has been filed against Secretary of State Benson over allowing private donations to be injected into the election process in Michigan. Thomas More Society lawyers claim that the Secretary of State has the responsibility under Michigan’s Constitution and Election Code to ensure that every voter has equal access to the ballot.

Democrats got around the “equal access to the ballot” requirement by making sure that red, as well as blue communities, received grant money. Rural, red communities received the $5000 minimum or less. But the largest total dollar amounts of the $17 million in grants to Michigan went to blue communities by far. Almost half of the amount went to Detroit.

And what did Benson say? Sorry, but she was not responsible for the millions of dollars of private grants that flooded into the state in the 2020 election because “she did not personally hand out the money”. Isn’t that rich? And from the mouth of the Chief Election Officer in the state!

84% of the total funds paid out by CTCL (Center for Tech and Civic Life ie Zuckbucks) went to jurisdictions carried by Biden.  If that is not outside influence peddling, what else do you call it?

As Thor Hearne, attorney for the Thomas More Society, explains:

“The Michigan Constitution guarantees every eligible citizen the right of equal protection when it comes to voting, and that means state officials may not put in place an election scheme that enhances the weight of votes cast by one class of voters or increases one favored class of voters’ access to the ballot. That’s just what happened here. Analysis of data that the Center for Tech and Civic Life provided to the Internal Revenue Service and other public records demonstrates that this scheme was designed to favor urban areas in Michigan and to disadvantage, Michigan voters in rural and suburban more politically conservative areas.”

A lawsuit was filed in Sep 2020 regarding this egregious private funding of the election, but the judge ruled that it was too close to the election to do anything about it though the claim had merit.  Twice Benson tried to throw the lawsuit out but was denied. At her third attempt, it was dismissed on the basis that the election was now over, and the case was, therefore, moot.

Talk about a “catch-22”!!!

As Thor Hearne said when he recently filed a brief on Sep 6, 2022:  “It cannot be that a private election funding scheme is immunized from judicial review both before and after the election.”  The case is currently under appeal.

Supposedly, the CTCL grant money was necessary to purchase PPE equipment during covid. In fact, this money was funneled to local election offices in 47 states under the guise of alleviating the burden of COVID-19-related costs. However, an examination of financial statements shows that in Michigan and Wisconsin, there were “zero” purchases of PPE.

Covid was the cover. The takeover was the target, ie, election takeover and meddling.

There were what is called “clawback” provisions or strings attached to the grant money. Clerks had to follow orders as to how the election process was to be run, or the money had to be returned.

As Mollie Hemingway said in her best-selling book, “Rigged: How the Media, Big Tech, and the Democrats Seized Our Elections”:

“It was a genius plan. And because no one ever imagined that a coordinated operation could pull off the privatization of the election system, laws were not built to combat it.”

Michigan voters MUST vote NO on Proposal 2 in the upcoming election. Let’s not let Democrat dark money see the light of day in the upcoming mid-term elections!

BREAKING: Lawsuit Filed by MI Residents Demands Michigan’s Dirty SOS Jocelyn Benson Rescind Newly Created, Unconstitutional Rules To Make Poll Challengers Job In Upcoming Election Almost Impossible

Five individuals in Michigan are suing Michigan’s dishonest Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, and MI Director of Elections Jonathan Brater over their sudden creation of a new set of rules titled “The Appointments, Rights, and Duties of Poll Challengers and Election Workers,” only months before Michigan’s August 2, 2022, Primary Election. The lawsuit asks for an emergency injunction that compels MI SOS Jocelyn Benson and Jonathan Brater to rescind their unconstitutional changes to their newly created “guidance.”

On the day of the Primary Election in Detroit, under the new guidance of MI Soros-funded SOS Jocelyn Benson Jonathan Brater, an unknown third-party security group by the name of “ICU,” threw Braden Giacobazzi, an Independent poll challenger out of the former TCF Center (now the Huntington Place) for asking too many (legitimate) questions about ballots and the processes that he claims were not being followed. Braden’s story can be found here.

The video taken by 100 Percent Fed Up at the time of the incident shows the very respectful interaction between the Detroit Police Officer, and Braden Giacobazzi, who actually cites election law and explains how the ICU agents, hired by the Detroit City Clerk’s office were violating election law when they threw him out of the counting facility.

Benson’s new rules are just one more example of how she uses her position as Secretary of State to demonize, mischaracterize and tie the hands of GOP and Independent poll challengers behind their backs while empowering election workers, who, in many cases, were hostile to the GOP and Independent poll challengers at the TCF Center in 2020.

Three of the five individuals who are plaintiffs in the case served as poll challengers in Detroit during the most contentious counting of absentee ballots in Michigan history. The GOP and Independent poll challengers, whose only goal was to ensure free and fair elections in 2020, quickly became targets of what appeared to be a coordinated attack by select election workers, supervisors, and election officials.

The majority of the over 200 poll challengers who signed sworn affidavits after working at the TCF Center on the day after the 2020 election attested to the targeting, threatening, and intimidating behavior by election workers, yet to the best of our knowledge, not one affidavit was filed that cited the same or similar behavior by GOP poll challengers directed at election workers.

Here are only two examples of affidavits filed by poll challengers citing intimidation and a total disregard by election workers for their challenges:

#1.

#2.

Although there were many cases of poll challenger intimidation (not the least of which occurred when GOP and Independent poll challengers were locked out of the counting room at the TCF Center), not one election worker was ever charged for their illegal behavior.

MI Election law clearly states:

37. Threatening or intimidating an election challenger is a felony, as follows:

MCL $168.734 Challengers; preventing presence, penalty.

Any officer or election board who shall prevent the presence of any such challenger as above provided, or shall refuse or fail to provide such challenger with conveniences for the performance of the duties expected of him, shall, upon conviction, be punished by a fine not exceeding $1,000.00, or by imprisonment in the state prison not exceeding two years, or by both such fine and imprisonment in the discretion of the court.

The lawsuit, filed by attorney Ann Howard on September 29, 2022, addresses the current election laws and seeks to prevent Jocelyn Benson and Jonathan Brader from issuing further guidance that would make it easier for election workers to berate and intimidate poll challengers with no chance to address their behavior with anyone at the absentee counting facilities.

From the lawsuit:

Instead of faithfully adhering to Michigan election law and the Administrative Procedures Act of 1969, Defendants” Benson and Brater, via the May 2022 directive, unilaterally issued fatally flawed “guidance” to local election officials. This “guidance” includes instructions that are either foreign to or in direct conflict with the clear language of MCL §168.733 and other election law provisions. In such instances, the “guidance” is invalid unless and until promulgated in a manner compliant with the Administrative Procedures Act of 1969.

In this case, Plaintiffs express concern that Defendants Benson and Brater, by issuing
improper “guidance,” may, in effect, foment election inspectors to unknowingly trample on the rights of their election challenger counterparts. The disagreement of that which
constitutes proper and lawful behavior may give rise to improper allegations of disorderly conduct levied against election challengers.

Defendant Benson is further intimidating election challengers into acquiescing their 
rights and responsibilities through public statements depicting them as violent extremists
and is self-prophesying future election-day discontent through distribution of training 
materials maintaining the same tone.

ALL candidates whose names will appear on the MI ballot on November 8, 2022, have an interest in ensuring poll challengers, whose job it is to ensure free and fair elections are being conducted, are not being prohibited from doing their jobs by election workers with an agenda.

The two non-poll challengers listed on the lawsuit against Benson and Brader are Penny Crider, who is running for a seat in the MI State House in the 17th district, and Penny’s husband, Kenneth Crider, who is running for a seat in the MI State Senate in the 6th district of Michigan. According to the lawsuit, both Penny and Kenneth Crider, who will appear on the ballot on November 8, 2022, “have a unique substantial interest in the manner from the citizenry at large in ensuring an open, transparent, and lawful election process, which poll challengers in part ensure.”

Jocelyn Benson and Jonathan Brater’s unconstitutional changes to MI election law would essentially make poll challengers subject to the whims of election workers and place them in a position where hostile election workers, of which there were many in the 2020 election, have the ability to overrule objections made by election poll challengers and have them thrown out of the counting centers.

Michigan’s dishonest SOS Jocelyn Benson has been taking part in what appears to be a mass disinformation campaign designed to gaslight Michigan voters into believing GOP and Independent poll challengers, who were victims of election workers who cheered when they were thrown out of the counting room, or when pizza boxes were placed over the windows to cover the faces of GOP and Independent poll challengers who were thrown out of the room, are somehow now “terrorists” or “extremists” that need to be dealt with before the November election.

Ann Howard cites several examples in her lawsuit of how Benson is working with the dishonest media to create a wild and unfounded narrative that demonizes and mischaracterizes moms, teachers, college professors, doctors, former police officers, grandparents, United States veterans, business owners, and college students who volunteer to work as poll challengers and labels them as  “violent extremists” who are “interfering” with elections.

Here are just a few of the examples Howard cites in her lawsuit of Benson pushing false narratives to justify her illegal changes to poll challenger rules:

From a September 8 interview with CNN –

“The mounting efforts to influence poll workers have prompted concerns over election disruptions, forcing the state to establish a code of conduct for those individuals,” said Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson.

Poll workers who don’t adhere to the rules will be removed “by the local clerk, if they violate the law … or in any way interfere with the administration of fair and secure elections,” Benson told CNN.

A Huffington Post article that addressed a September 8, 2022,  interview with Major Garrett on “Face the Nation” was also listed on the lawsuit.

Benson was asked by the “Face the Nation” host what voters are most concerned about as the midterms approach.

“Violence and disruption on Election Day, first and foremost, and in the days surrounding the election,” Benson quickly told CBS “Face the Nation” host.

“Secondly, there’s a concern about the ongoing spread of misinformation, which, of course, fuels the potential for additional threats, harassment, and even violence on Election Day,” Benson added.

Watch:

The RNC filed a similar suit against Jocelyn Benson the day after Howard’s lawsuit. The Federalist reported on the lawsuit- In issuing such last-minute guidance “without any formal rulemaking or process,” Benson violated Michigan’s Administrative Procedures Act by merely uploading the guidance onto the Michigan secretary of state’s website, the lawsuit alleges.

The judge in the case has combined both lawsuits.

BREAKING: New Investigation Finds That Democrats Are Operating 51 ‘Fake News’ Sites To Manipulate Midterm Elections

A shocking investigation by Axios published on Thursday found that Democrat operatives are running 51 ‘fake news’ websites under the guise of local news organizations.

The company running the sites, Local Report Inc. receives its content from The American Independent, an organization run by Democratic operatives and founded by David Brock, who is also the founder of Media Matters, a far-left pressure group that tries to ‘cancel’ Republican politicians and activists.

The organization’s websites pepper in politically biased stories with reports about the weather and local news, according to the Axios investigation.

The group claims that its mission is to bring ‘local, fact-based news’ back to cities across the country.

The Axios investigation found multiple instances of sloppy reporting, where hit pieces were written about Republican candidates who were not given a request for comment or a chance to respond.

The American Independent’s leadership team is filled with left-wing operatives, including the executive editor,  Jessica McCreight, who was a part of President Barack Obama’s communications team.

The Daily Mail Reports–

A liberal political media operation being run out of Washington, D.C., and Florida is pushing left-wing stories in 51 different fake news outlets in order to influence the outcome of the November midterm elections, it is claimed.

The allegations came in a shocking new investigation from Axios that was published on Thursday.

The report alleges that in the past 12 months, multiple new ‘news’ website have appeared across the country, all run by a company named Local Report Inc.

They do report a wide variety of stories – but sprinkled throughout are news items pushing Democrat lawmakers and policies.

Online records show that the Local Report was founded in Tallahassee, Fla.

A user has to scroll down to find an article accusing the Dairy State’s Republican gubernatorial candidate Tim Michels of accepting donations from anti-LGBTQ organizations.

The biased articles make no mention of attempts to reach the state’s Republican Party or the gubernatorial campaigns of those in question for comment.

BREAKING: Election Software CEO Arrested For Storing Data In China Is Deemed “Significant Flight Risk” Caught With Luggage On Way To MI Airport...Left His Cell Phone Behind...Has “Substantial ties to China”

Earlier this week, we reported about a significant arrest that took place in LA County, CA, related to the 2020 elections.

On September 8, a reporter from 100 Percent Fed Up attended “The Pit,” where True the Votes’ Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips dropped a bombshell about the arrest of Eugene Yu, CEO of Konnech, an E. Lansing, MI-based company responsible for the software used in managing elections in several states that stored personal information of over 1 million Americans in its database.

Konnech, much like Dominion, almost immediately sued True the Vote as a way to silence them and keep them from speaking out about the bombshell information they provided to reporters at The Pit related to Konnech and the unlawful transfer of information from America to China.

Gregg Phillips and Catherine Engelbrecht

Kanekoa The Great, a spectacular investigative journalist and blogger, reported about the findings of The Pit on September 8, 2022- In January 2021, Phillips said that the cyber analyst he had been working with encountered an “oddity in some of the URLs” such as vote4la.com, vote4detroit.com, and vote4boston.com, which Konnech’s “PollChief” software application used to gather personally-identifying information about poll workers.

Konnech CEO Eugene Yu

Using Binary Edge, a software product companies use to identify and assess the risk of cyber breaches, “We began to look at where these URLs actually resolve to. We found that most of them resolve to one IP address and that IP address — the URL resolved in China,” Phillips said.

“What we also learned in our review, apps.konnech.com [.net], resolved into this same URL in China, meaning that the application itself was residing in China,” he continued.

“In Binary Edge, you can figure out what type of database they are using, their database port, and all the different services offered by ports in this particular application living in China. It turned out that not only did it live there, but they left the database open.”

This database “stored the personally identifying information of over a million Americans,” he emphasized.

Engelbrecht and Phillips decided that “this was a major national security risk” and immediately took the information to the FBI.

In 2005, Eugene Yu, the Founder of Konnech Inc., whose Chinese name is Jianwei Yu, founded a Chinese election company named Jinhua Yulian Network Technology Co. in Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province, China. On February 25, 2006, Yu registered the website “yu-lian.cn” for his Chinese election company to his American election company’s email address “[email protected].” In a 2013 archived version of the website, Yu praised “Comrade Jiang Zemin” and the “Chinese Communist Party” before listing “Election Management Solutions, Detroit” and “US Overseas Voters” as his “Success Stories.” Source: https://web.archive.org/web/20220901015518/https://whois-history.whoisxmlapi.com/lookup-report/ax5DgQQp26

According to True the Vote investigator Gregg Phillips, the FBI had already been investigating Konnech.

“These were legitimate people who believed that this software posed a national security risk to the United States of America, and they were working with us closely to try to stop this from being in place during the midterms,” Phillips said.

“The focus point was always we needed to remove this software from the election, but taking a step further, there were a lot of other concerns that the bureau had.”

“In fact, the president of this company sits on the board of another election company that is one of the founding members of DHS’s election security task force. So you want to talk about the fox in the hen house? It’s all right there,” Engelbrecht noted about Konnech CEO Eugene Yu’s membership on Votem Corp.’s Board of Advisors.

Furthermore, Phillips added, “The same individual who programmed this election mess, PollChief, was also the lead programmer for the Confucius Institute internal comms [communication] mechanism.”

“Meaning how they exchange data between here and China; this same person built the entire app that runs all of these elections across the United States. This is a red Chinese communist op run against the United States by Chinese operatives, and it’s a disaster.”

The FBI agents indicated that Konnech had already “been on their radar” and that there were “lots of other problems” with the U.S. election company, including “banking issues” and problems involving the company’s overseas operations in “Australia” and “Canada.”

The media brutalized Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips for making accusations against Konnech. Konnech almost immediately sued them for reporting the truth about what they found.

On Tuesday,  the LA County District Attorney’s office announced that Eugene Yu was arrested and taken into custody for suspected theft of information on voters stored on servers in Communist China.

Konnech CEO Eugene Yu

Konnech distributes and sells its proprietary PollChief software, which is an election worker management system that was utilized by the county in the last California election. The software assists with poll worker assignments, communications, and payroll. PollChief requires that workers submit personal identifying information, which is retained by the Konnech.

Under its $2.9 million, five-year contract with the county, Konnech was supposed to securely maintain the data and that only United States citizens and permanent residents have access to it.

District Attorney investigators found that in contradiction to the contract, information was stored on servers in the People’s Republic of China.

The East Lansing Police Department and Ingham County Sheriff’s Office in Michigan also assisted in the investigation.

It’s now being reported that the Konnech CEO is considered a major flight risk.

During a Zoom call yesterday, Ingham County Prosecutors Office Unit Chief Nicole Matusko called Mr. Yu a significant flight risk and explained how they believed he was attempting to potentially flee the United States.

I will note for the record that Mr. Yu is a significant flight risk.

Mr. Yu has substantial ties to the country of China.

He maintains relationships with family and friends in China.

He also has extensive and significant business relationships in the country of China.

He also has business relationships with other countries outside of the United States.

In addition, when he was arrested yesterday, he was arrested with a backpack or luggage, and he was, in fact, on his way to the airport. I do not have confirmation as to where he was going, but he was on his way to leaving the state of Michigan.

In addition to having his luggage with him, I was notified yesterday that his cell phone was left at his residence in Meridian Township. Mr. Yu is the owner of a. business or businesses that are technology based. He is a technologically savvy individual, so in our view—leaving his cell phone behind when he was going to another state is suspicious.

The New York Times published an article defending Mr. Yu on the same day of his arrest. The article attacked conspiracy theorists or “far right election deniers,” who believe the election was stolen from President Trump in 2020 and painted the Konnech CEO as a victim.

In the two years since former President Donald J. Trump lost his re-election bid, conspiracy theorists have subjected election officials and private companies that play a major role in elections to a barrage of outlandish voter fraud claims.

But the attacks on Konnech demonstrate how far-right election deniers are also giving more attention to new and more secondary companies and groups. Their claims often find a receptive online audience, which then uses the assertions to raise doubts about the integrity of American elections.

Unlike other election technology companies targeted by election deniers, Konnech, a company based in Michigan with 21 employees in the United States and six in Australia, has nothing to do with collecting, counting, or reporting ballots in American elections. Instead, it helps clients like Los Angeles County and Allen County, Ind., with basic election logistics, such as scheduling poll workers.

Konnech said none of the accusations were true. It said that all the data for its American customers were stored on servers in the United States and that it had no ties to the Chinese government.

But the claims have had consequences for the firm. Konnech’s founder and chief executive, Eugene Yu, an American citizen who immigrated from China in 1986, went into hiding with his family after receiving threatening messages. Other employees also feared for their safety and started working remotely after users posted details about Konnech’s headquarters, including the number of cars in the company’s parking lot.

After the news of the Konnech CEO’s arrest, The New York Times did not remove their article that made him look like a “victim” of right-wing election deniers, to their readers. Instead, they added this ridiculous note to the top of the article, saying they would continue to “report” on this story. Someone should tell Stuart A. Thompson that this is not “reporting,” that it’s helping the Democrats to divide and pit Americans against each other with these fake news stories.

Articles like the one above by the New York Times that are written in conjunction with major players in the Democrat Party who are pushing the big lie that anyone who questions the results of the 2020 election should be shamed and cast out of normal society are a serious threat to our Republic.

MICHIGAN CONNECTION TO KONNECH:

WDET reports – Detroit had a similar contract with Konnech for the use of its PollChief software, which is said to have the ability to send mass letters, emails, and phone calls to polling locations and record responses of election workers. The $320,000 contract, approved last year by Detroit City Council, was set to expire in June 2024. According to city and federal records, Konnech had worked with the city on several specific applications for more than a decade, including ballot “fast-scanning” software and a mobile app for Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act (UOCAVA) returned ballots.

Following news of Yu’s arrest, Detroit terminated its current contract with Konnech. In a statement, City Clerk Janice Winfrey upheld the integrity of Detroit’s election process and the security of employee information.

According to the Michigan Secretary of State’s office, Detroit is the only Michigan municipality that contracts with Konnech. The company did not respond to WDET’s request for comment.

“Konnech operates a payroll management system for poll workers that are used by Detroit and has never had access to voter data or election data,” said Angela Benander, a spokesperson for Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson. “The Michigan Bureau of Elections does not contract with Konnech.

Michigan’s chief election officer, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, appears to be part of a broader effort by media and top Democrat officials to target and destroy anyone who dares to call out election fraud in 2020.

In April, while speaking at a Trump rally in Washington, MI, Republican SOS candidate Kristina Karamo was threatened by Jocelyn Benson’s close friend, MI AG Dana Nessel, with “a felony” for questioning the results of the 2020 election.

When citizens and grassroots groups get too close to the truth, the Democrat Party and their allies in the media behave like a cobra that’s been cornered and strike out at them, hoping to deal a hard-hitting blow that will frighten and intimidate them into silence.

The fact that the New York Times published an article about Mr. Yu being a victim of Trump-supporting Americans on the same day he was potentially attempting to flee the country after being accused of committing a serious crime against American citizens that involved sending their private information to be stored in China is all the evidence anyone needs to show how sick these people are.

DEMOCRAT’S DIRTY SECRET: Proposal 2 Will Change Michigan’s Constitution To Forever Give Billionaires The Ability To Determine Outcome of Elections

A Guest Post by Becky Behrends, M.D. Vice President of Research for Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity (MC4EI)

Michigan voters need to dump Proposal 2 “Promote STEAL the Vote”  that will change their Constitution and forever legalize voter fraud in their state. They have a chance to dump the Democrat-led proposal into the trash bin of election history and stop this attempt to allow billionaires to take over our elections.

“Fakebook” founder, Mark Zuckerberg, got away with it once with his financial influence peddling in the 2020 General Election, infamously known as “Zuckbucks.”

As the Republican outcry over this became a bit too hot, Zuckerberg announced in April 2022 that he would not be doing the same thing in 2022 ie funneling money into elections.

In fact, as of mid-September, 24 states have passed laws banning the private funding of elections. Twelve counties have done so also. Livingston County, Michigan, was the second county nationwide to do so.

Many Republican voters do not even realize that Proposal 2, known as the Right to Voting Policies Amendment, will also allow private donations to fund elections! And if this proposal is passed, it will be added as an amendment to the state constitution! Permanent!! Extremely hard to undo!!

In a recent Detroit Free Press article, reporter Clara Hendrickson stated that both Democratic and Republican-leaning communities received Zuckbucks election grants in 2020. Thus, this proves there was no partisan purchasing of the election. In fact, she pointed out that a GOP-appointed judge dismissed a lawsuit over Zuckbucks because all communities that applied for the grant money received it, whether Democrat or Republican.

So, why the fuss? Here is why.

A lawsuit has been filed against Secretary of State Benson over allowing private donations to be injected into the election process in Michigan. Thomas More Society lawyers claim that the Secretary of State has the responsibility under Michigan’s Constitution and Election Code to ensure that every voter has equal access to the ballot.

Democrats got around the “equal access to the ballot” requirement by making sure that red, as well as blue communities, received grant money. Rural, red communities received the $5000 minimum or less. But the largest total dollar amounts of the $17 million in grants to Michigan went to blue communities by far. Almost half of the amount went to Detroit.

And what did Benson say? Sorry, but she was not responsible for the millions of dollars of private grants that flooded into the state in the 2020 election because “she did not personally hand out the money”. Isn’t that rich? And from the mouth of the Chief Election Officer in the state!

84% of the total funds paid out by CTCL (Center for Tech and Civic Life ie Zuckbucks) went to jurisdictions carried by Biden.  If that is not outside influence peddling, what else do you call it?

As Thor Hearne, attorney for the Thomas More Society, explains:

“The Michigan Constitution guarantees every eligible citizen the right of equal protection when it comes to voting, and that means state officials may not put in place an election scheme that enhances the weight of votes cast by one class of voters or increases one favored class of voters’ access to the ballot. That’s just what happened here. Analysis of data that the Center for Tech and Civic Life provided to the Internal Revenue Service and other public records demonstrates that this scheme was designed to favor urban areas in Michigan and to disadvantage, Michigan voters in rural and suburban more politically conservative areas.”

A lawsuit was filed in Sep 2020 regarding this egregious private funding of the election, but the judge ruled that it was too close to the election to do anything about it though the claim had merit.  Twice Benson tried to throw the lawsuit out but was denied. At her third attempt, it was dismissed on the basis that the election was now over, and the case was, therefore, moot.

Talk about a “catch-22”!!!

As Thor Hearne said when he recently filed a brief on Sep 6, 2022:  “It cannot be that a private election funding scheme is immunized from judicial review both before and after the election.”  The case is currently under appeal.

Supposedly, the CTCL grant money was necessary to purchase PPE equipment during covid. In fact, this money was funneled to local election offices in 47 states under the guise of alleviating the burden of COVID-19-related costs. However, an examination of financial statements shows that in Michigan and Wisconsin, there were “zero” purchases of PPE.

Covid was the cover. The takeover was the target, ie, election takeover and meddling.

There were what is called “clawback” provisions or strings attached to the grant money. Clerks had to follow orders as to how the election process was to be run or the money had to be returned.

As Mollie Hemingway said in her best selling book, “Rigged: How the Media, Big Tech, and the Democrats Seized Our Elections”:

“It was a genius plan. And because no one ever imagined that a coordinated operation could pull off the privatization of the election system, laws were not built to combat it.”

Michigan voters MUST vote NO on Proposal 2 in the upcoming election. Let’s not let Democrat dark money see the light of day in the upcoming mid-term elections!

WATCH: Large Garbage Bag Used To Transfer Stacks of Absentee Ballots From Detroit Drop Box...Is This What SOS Benson Means When She Says MI Elections Were “Most secure in history”?

Several months ago, the Gateway Pundit obtained surveillance video footage from 19 absentee ballot drop boxes in Detroit from the 2020 election. 100 Percent Fed Up began working with MC4EI (Michigan Citizens For Election Integrity), who poured through 16,000 hours of video footage to identify potential criminal activity that took place during the hotly contested 2020 election.

So far, we’ve been able to share multiple cases of suspicious and possibly criminal activity taking place at several drop box locations. From massive ballot drops of 40-50 ballots by individuals or teams of two individuals to hundreds of people taking photos of their hands dropping ballots into the drop boxes, to Dominion tabulators being delivered to a satellite voting center where top election officials say there are no tabulations taking place, we’ve been able to share videos showing a variety of suspicious activities that if Michigan had a law and order Attorney General or honest Secretary of State, would be under investigation.

MI SOS Jocelyn Benson (D) and MI AG Dana Nessel (D)

The chain of custody is a significant issue in Detroit.

How are ballots being accounted for that are being picked up at drop boxes? And are Detroit election workers required to use a secure and authorized ballot transfer case to move absentee ballots from the drop boxes to the Detroit Department of Elections?

In video surveillance footage from a drop box at WCCCD Northwest in Detroit, a young male wearing a face mask can be seen emptying absentee ballots from a drop box at a satellite voting center. While we cannot confirm who they work for, we assume they are Detroit election workers. As the male retrieves stacks of ballots from the drop box, an older, black female is shown pulling a large black garbage bag from the back of the SUV. She brings the bag to the drop box and opens it as the white male begins dumping handfuls of absentee ballots into the black plastic garbage bag.

When the Detroit ballot drop box has been emptied, they take the bag and throw it in the front passenger seat with the white male as they drive away. The vehicle has no clear identifiable markings that indicate it’s being used for the City of Detroit election official business.

Is the black plastic garbage bag an official transfer case for absentee ballots in Detroit? Is this another example of MI Democrat SOS Jocelyn Benson’s “Most secure election in history”?

Watch the incredible video MC4EI uncovered at a Detroit satellite voting center that shows the shocking way ballots are transferred in Detroit:

HUGE BREAKING BOMBSHELL! CEO of Konnech Company that Sells PollChief Software For Elections Is ARRESTED...Charged With Storing Poll Worker’s Personal Data on Servers In China

On September 8, a reporter from 100 Percent Fed Up attended “The Pit,” where True the Votes’ Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips dropped a bombshell about Eugene Yu, CEO of Konnech, an E. Lansing, MI-based company responsible for the software used in managing elections in several states that stored personal information of over 1 million Americans in its database.

Using Binary Edge, a software product companies use to identify and assess the risk of cyber breaches, “We began to look at where do these URLs actually resolve to. We found that most of them resolve to one IP address and that IP address — the URL resolved in China,” Phillips said.

“What we also learned in our review, apps.konnech.com [.net], resolved into this same URL in China, meaning that the application itself was residing in China,” he continued.

On February 25, 2006, Yu registered the website “yu-lian.cn” for his Chinese election company to his American election company’s email address “[email protected]”. In a 2013 archived version of the website, Yu praised “Comrade Jiang Zemin” and the “Chinese Communist Party” before listing “Election Management Solutions, Detroit” and “US Overseas Voters” as his “Success Stories”. Source: https://web.archive.org/web/20220901015518/https://whois-history.whoisxmlapi.com/lookup-report/ax5DgQQp26

According to Gregg Phillips, the FBI had already been investigating Konnech.

“These were legitimate people who believed that this software posed a national security risk to the United States of America and they were working with us closely to try to stop this from being in place during the midterms,” Phillips said.

“The focus point was always we needed to remove this software from the election, but taking a step further, there were a lot of other concerns that the bureau had.”

“In fact, the president of this company sits on the board of another election company that is one of the founding members of DHS’s election security task force. So you want to talk about the fox in the hen house? It’s all right there,” Engelbrecht noted about Konnech CEO Eugene Yu’s membership on Votem Corp.’s Board of Advisors.

Furthermore, Phillips added, “The same individual who programmed this election mess, PollChief, was also the lead programmer for the Confucius Institute internal comms [communication] mechanism.”

“Meaning how they exchange data between here and China, this same person built the entire app that runs all of these elections across the United States. This is a red Chinese communist op run against the United States by Chinese operatives and it’s a disaster.”

The FBI agents indicated that Konnech had already “been on their radar” and that there were “lots of other problems” with the U.S. election company, including “banking issues” and problems involving the company’s overseas operations in “Australia” and “Canada.”

In April 2022, Engelbrecht received a call from one of the FBI agents, who informed her that the FBI’s “Washington D.C. headquarters” was now involved in the investigation.

Engelbrecht described how everything changed after this call, “There was no more goodwill, there was no more let’s work together, the script had been flipped, and now we were the target,” she said. “That was a very disturbing call.”

The agent informed Engelbrecht that “two women” at the FBI’s headquarters believed that Phillips and Engelbrecht were “in the wrong for doing this” and that the D.C. office was now trying “to figure out how you guys broke the law to find all of this”.

Engelbrecht added, “which of course we didn’t, but that was kind of their MO [modus operandi], they were going to try to pin something on us, and today you can pick your headlines about how the FBI has done this time and again.”

Catherine Engelbrecht and Gregg Phillips were brutalized by the media for making accusations against Konnech, and many people who reported on their story were sued by Konnech.

Earlier today, the Democrat mouthpiece, The New York Times, came out in defense of Konnech and their CEO Eugene Yu. In their article, they suggest that Yu is somehow a victim of conspiracy theorists or “far right election deniers,” who believe the election was stolen from President Trump in 2020.

In the two years since former President Donald J. Trump lost his re-election bid, conspiracy theorists have subjected election officials and private companies that play a major role in elections to a barrage of outlandish voter fraud claims.

The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office has just announced that Eugene Yu has been arrested and taken into custody on suspicion of theft of information of voters that’s been stored on servers in Communist China.

Catherine Engelbrecht of True the Vote has confirmed that Eugene Yu has been arrested and will speak with us later this evening to provide more details.

From the LA District Attorney George Gascón’s office: 

Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón announced today that an executive with a Michigan-based company responsible for the software used in managing Los Angeles County election poll workers has been arrested as part of an investigation into the possible theft of personal identifying information of those workers.

“I want to thank my prosecutors and investigators for their commitment to eliminating cyber intrusions against government entities and local businesses,” District Attorney Gascón said.
“Data breaches are an ongoing threat to our digital way of life. When we entrust a company to hold our confidential data, they must be willing and able to protect our personal identifying information from theft. Otherwise, we are all victims.

This investigation is concerned solely with the personal identifying information of election workers. In this case, the alleged conduct had no impact on the tabulation of votes and did not alter election results. But security in all aspects of any election is essential so that we all have full faith in the integrity of the election process.”

Earlier today, Konnech Corporation Chief Executive Officer Eugene Yu was taken into custody on suspicion of theft of personal identifying information by investigators from the District Attorney’s Office Bureau of Investigation with assistance from the Meridian Township Police Department in Michigan. In addition, hard drives and other digital evidence were seized by LADA investigators.

The District Attorney’s Office is seeking Yu’s extradition to Los Angeles.

Konnech distributes and sells its proprietary PollChief software, which is an election worker management system that was utilized by the county in the last California election. The software assists with poll worker assignments, communications, and payroll. PollChief requires that workers submit personal identifying information, which is retained by the Konnech.

Under its $2.9 million, five-year contract with the county, Konnech was supposed to securely maintain the data and that only United States citizens and permanent residents have access to it.

District Attorney investigators found that in contradiction to the contract, information was stored on servers in the People’s Republic of China.

The East Lansing Police Department and Ingham County Sheriff’s Office in Michigan also assisted in the investigation.

“Promote [STEAL] The Vote” Proposal Will Be On The MI Ballot In November...It’s A Dirty Democrat Scheme That Will PERMANENTLY Make It Easier To Cheat In MI Elections

In November, Michigan voters will be asked to vote on ballot Proposal #2 or “Promote [STEAL] the Vote.” If it passes, it will change the MI Constitution.

This should not be taken lightly. Once it is changed it is very difficult to fix any unintended consequences. That is why the legislature in Michigan should be tasked with most of the proposals that are being put through as ballot initiatives to change our State Constitution. As few as 1 in 10 voters can place an initiative on the ballot to forever alter our Constitution.

Here is just one example of unintended consequences. You will be asked to change the Constitution to allow the following:

“The measure provides the right to early voting before election day at an early voting site. Early voting must have the same requirements at polling places as on election day, except that an early voting site can serve voters from more than six precincts and may serve voters from more than one municipality within a county.” Each early voting site should be open for nine consecutive days beginning on the second Saturday before the election and ending on the Sunday before the election. The early voting site should be open for at least eight hours each day.

No early voting results shall be generated or reported until after 8 PM on election day.” (Ballotpedia summary) Sounds good, right? Well, let’s look at some of the consequences.

It can be expensive. Early voting means you must staff and run the polling locations. It is hard enough to get workers for just one day.

Combining multiple precincts- We can learn from Detroit. Detroit has what they refer to as Satellite Voting Centers. In the SVCs, voters could come in and receive a ballot for any precinct in the city. These are then counted at TCF (Huntington Place)where they have combined precincts in counting boards, and in the last election, as usually happens, they were the last area of the state to report. Even though they had 25 high-speed tabulators that could process up to 3000 ballots/hour. This was more than any other city. So it does not help the efficiency of combining precincts. (see picture below.)

Need for multiple race ballots- for every separate race; you would need a ballot. In the city of Detroit, they had as many as 503 different precincts. This meant they would need up to 503 different ballots on the shelf. In this example, if you had 10 ballots for every precinct there would be 5000 ballots at each SVC. In 2020 there were 23 of these sites. You can do the math!!! This is a logistical nightmare. Are these blank ballots accounted for? What happens if you run out? This is not a secure process.

On a visit to a local SVC, the following was observed.  Shelves of stacked ballots were seen in the back of the room next to a door that exited into an empty field.  Two poll workers were in the front of the room.  If one of the workers was tied up with a voter while the other, for example, might be taking a break, there would be no one to observe the back door, which was not locked and easily accessible to anyone who walked in.  There were blank ballots stacked right there near this door for anyone who would want to grab them.  When we asked the poll workers if they had a security surveillance camera at the center, they said yes, but “but it hasn’t been working for months.”  Is this the kind of “security” the Democrats assure us exists in our elections?  If so, they are spouting a “Big Lie” of their own about election security!

Potentially thousands of unmarked ballots are stacked up in slots by the back door of a satellite voting center.  

This is an actual picture from a 2022 Satellite Voting Center in Detroit.

Combining precincts may cause the loss of precinct-level results- this is not good.

In a 2022 primary election in DeKalb County, GA, a Democrat Commissioners race had a machine programming error which caused one of the candidates to get zero votes in multiple precincts. The only way she caught the error was by looking at precinct-level results. She was granted a recount and went from last to first in the primary race. Unofficial Results: Spears leads the field in DeKalb Commission District 2 Race (fox5atlanta.com).

If you look at the AVCB (Absent voter counting board) in 2020 they had 503 precincts but only 134 counting boards. So they were combining precincts into counting boards. The problem is that when they reported the results, the precinct totals disappear, and it is one number from the AVCB. Below is a hypothetical example of how this situation could occur (as in DeKalb) but not be caught. Obviously, there is something wrong with precincts 2 & 3, but that is hidden because the precincts are combined.

As they say, “The Devil is in the Details” Don’t be like elected officials who tell you to pass it to find out what’s in it. The more you read the details, the worse it gets.

Vote No on Prop 2 in November.

BREAKING: Judge Rules Against Stacey Abrams In MAJOR Win For Election Integrity

Stacey Abrams is likely to lose (again) in her race against Georgia Governor Brian Kemp, with polls consistently showing Kemp ahead by 6-8 percentage points.

Still, she has made it her life’s mission to undermine election integrity laws in Georgia and across the country in an attempt to turn the state blue.

Abrams filed a lawsuit in 2018 after she lost the Georgia Governor’s election, alleging that basic election integrity laws like voter ID and citizenship checks were racist and part of a voter suppression scheme.

On Friday, a federal judge ruled against Fair Fight Action, the election group that Abrams’ founded, saying that voter ID laws and citizenship checks are constitutional and do not violate the Voting Rights Act (VRA).

The ruling is a major victory for election integrity laws across the country that will be crucial to secure the 2022 midterm elections and future elections.

Just The News Reports–

A federal judge ruled Friday that Georgia’s election integrity practices requiring voter ID and citizenship checks are legal and constitutional, rejecting arguments of racism and voter suppression from the state’s Democrat nominee for governor, Stacey Abrams, just weeks before Election Day.

U.S. District Judge Steve C. Jones, an Obama appointee, issued the ruling, after a lengthy trial, handing a major victory to Gov. Brian Kemp and Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger, who aggressively defended the state’s election integrity laws from a legal assault by Abrams voter group Fair Fight Inc. and other liberals.

“Although Georgia’s election system is not perfect, the challenged practices violate neither the constitution nor the VRA,” Jones ruled in a 288-page decision. “As the Eleventh Circuit notes, federal courts are not ‘the arbiter[s] of disputes’ which arise in elections; it [is] not the federal court’s role to ‘oversee the administrative details of a local election.'”

Michigan Republican Lawmakers Had Chance To Fix Broken Elections But Instead, Cave To Democrat’s Radical Proposals—Pass Bill to Make Elections Easier To Steal

A guest post by author Patrice Johnson

MI House Speaker wanna-be Matt Hall (R) was MI House Oversight Chair during the 2020 election. He listened to several hours of powerful testimony from GOP and Independent poll challengers with compelling evidence of voter fraud. He ignored all of them.

Last night under the cloak of darkness, the Michigan Legislature, led by a Republican majority and GOP election committee chairs, passed four bills containing serious threats to election integrity. Some of these bills popped onto the docket with 24 hours’ notice. Others awoke from dormancy after hearings earlier in the year and materialized on the agenda with barely any notice at all.

House Election Committee Chair Rep. Ann BOLLIN (R-Brighton Township) reported that a deal has been struck allowing two-day absentee ballot pre-processing in exchange for the passage of legislation to remove dead voters on file, increase security measures for ballot drop boxes, expand polling locations and allow an electronic ballot return for overseas military members.

Republican MI State Rep. Ann Bollin

With 41 days remaining before the Nov. 8 general election, Bollin announced to members of the press during Wednesday’s session that she’s “happy to say that both sides were able to come together” and allow two-day absentee ballot pre-processing, which she called “another tool in the toolbox for clerks.” Bollin: House To Strike Deal On Absentee Ballot Pre-Processing, More Election Security

“How about a ‘tool in the toolbox’ for voters?” asked Christine McGoron, Chair of Pure Integrity Michigan Elections’ Citizenship Committee. “How about making better laws that ensure that our votes are being counted accurately, that only US citizens are voting, that our personal information is not farmed out and used by outside entities, that foreign countries have no part in our voting process, like with voting machines?”

Considering that Gov. Whitmer has vetoed more bills each year than any governor since 1953 and considering that most of the bills she tanked had bipartisan support, why is she willing to sign these golden four? Just asking.

Despite the powdered-sugar talking points, all four bills appear to open giant doughnut holes to those seeking to abuse the state’s election processes. Last spring, Pure Integrity Michigan Elections testified and submitted written statements in opposition to bills 6071, 311, and 008. The group offered to support 4491 if amendments were made. They were not.

1. Absentee ballot pre-processing

“House Bill 6071 is a disaster,” wrote Lou Avallone, PIME’s Legislative Committee expert. “It allows for absentee ballot pre-processing on Sunday and Monday. It is a waste of taxpayer money to support these operations. Despite the constant propaganda, absentee ballots take less time than in-person ballots to process.” He noted that all precincts have their own teams and no precinct exceeds 2,999 registered voters. “Detroit averages about 1,000 registered voters per precinct,” he said.

Therefore, the only additional burden that arises from absentee ballots, he said, falls on clerks prior to election day. “Clerks must complete the signature verification and update the QVF to reflect the receipt of the ballots. But this has nothing to do with the processing of ballots by election inspectors.”

“Seriously?” former state Senator Patrick Colbeck wrote to Elections Chair Rep Bollin. “We are giving them two days of vote-tally recon[naisance] plus internet-based voting in exchange for them following the law?

“How about they remove dead voters without giving them two days of pre-processing? How about getting rid of AV Counting Boards altogether and forcing a reconciliation of the voters and ballots at the precinct level?

“Why are you enabling them to get away with election fraud yet again?

“In case you can’t tell, VERY disappointed….”

“If the legislature wanted to solve the real problem, it would facilitate a temporary increase in clerk staffing on election day to accomplish the signature matching of ‘late arrival’ ballots,” Avallone said. “Even worse, this bill dilutes the oversight capability of volunteer election challengers. Instead of needing to cover election day, they must now spread the resources over three days.”

The bill also allows for some flexibility in using large buildings as ‘combined precinct’ polling places. “Although they are generally not a good idea, their use was already allowed,” he said.

The legislation empowers county clerks to initiate the removal of deceased voters from the QVF instead of placing the burden only on the local clerks.

Avallone suspects the removal of deceased voters was unlikely the hold-up. “The issue, per the PILF lawsuit, is that the state is not doing an adequate job identifying deceased voters in the first place, not that it takes too long to remove them from the QVF once they are recognized as deceased.” PILF stands for Public Interest Legal Foundation. which is currently suing Secretary of State Benson for refusing to remove 26,000 verified deceased voters.

Avallone called bill 6071 “Mere virtue signaling.”

Military voting? Not so much.

Bills 311 and 008, touted as helping overseas military personnel vote by allowing them to vote electronically, passed with overwhelming support. Too bad only about a third (37%) of these overseas voters are military. Two-thirds of these overseas voters are actually civilians, claiming to be U.S. citizens!

They’re called UOCAVA voters, short for Uniformed Overseas and Citizens Overseas Voting Act.

Plus, it appears no one verifies citizenship status.

According to VerityVote, “Certain absentee voting privileges, which had previously been reserved for the military, were expanded to include US citizens living abroad, even those who have never lived in the United States. Federal laws have created serious vulnerabilities through the use of email and electronic voting and unverified registration of non-military overseas persons. The result is that 63% of the voters claiming UOCAVA privileges were allegedly non-military overseas citizens.”

“In May 2020, the FBI, CISA, EAC, and NISC described this as a ‘high-risk process’ that is susceptible to fraud.” Consider this: In 2020, counter to Americans flocking home due to COVID, the number of primarily civilian UOCAVA ballots skyrocketed upward from 2016’s numbers by 268,000.

A peculiar discrepancy

The Election Administration Commission tracked a total of 573,000 non-military UOCAVA voters. But the Dept of Defense, which administers UOCAVA, underreported to Congress the non-military voters by an additional 349,000.

In other words, Michigan’s well-meaning legislators appear to have been snookered.

In addition to opening the floodgates to noncitizen overseas voting, Avallone fears the adoption of the bill will “pave the way for eventual abuse in the return of electronic ballots. It seems to require access to a Department of Defense secure identification, but I am not sure how that applies to the merchant marines and the other non-military ‘corps.’

Fortunately, this new system is slated to take effect in 2024.

4. Drop boxes

Bill 4491 deals with the chain of custody regarding absentee ballot drop boxes. Notably, it requires video monitoring only on the ones ordered and installed after Oct. 1, 2020. “It does require clerks to keep records of absentee ballots as they are removed from drop boxes,” Avallone said. “But it provides no consequences for records that are not kept.” Neither does 4491 require the information to be easily accessible to the public.

No wonder the Democrat governor is expected to sign all four bills.

The Making of a Deplorable Conspiracy Theorist Election Denier

A guest post by author Patrice Johnson.

Our little town’s annual Day in the Village presented a perfect opportunity for Pure Integrity Michigan Elections to host a table. I sat with fellow PIMErs Rick and Gary, enjoying the warm, sunny day and chatting with people who stopped by. Many eagerly signed up to become supporters. But Stockbridge is a small town. I’ve lived here most of my life, and people I knew were walking past without returning so much as a nod of hello.

I must be unrecognizable behind my sunglasses, I decided.

To my right, I noticed Belle looking at me. I smiled and waved a greeting to the fellow garden club member of many years.

No wave back.

She was probably daydreaming or focusing somewhere else. Stupid sunglasses, I thought. Curious, I watched her, and as we contemplated each other’s direction, I realized Belle was, in fact, staring directly at me. I sensed a chill. Then the question dawned on me: Could she find my affiliation with PIME so disturbing that she couldn’t bring herself to acknowledge my presence?

For months leading up to the Nov. 3, 2020, election, President Trump had warned against the massive push for mail-in ballots. The COVID-19 pandemic was providing cover for the left to “rig” the election, he said. Every Michigander knew a household or two that had received a ballot application in the mail for a long-dead grandmother or a relative who had moved out of state decades ago. Social media was rife with citizens reporting the receipt of ballot applications for strangers supposedly dwelling in their homes.

MI Democrat SOS Jocelyn Benson (AP Photo/Paul Sancya, File)

On Sept. 25, 2020, FBI Director Christopher Wray testified before the Senate Homeland Security Committee, saying, “Now, we have not seen, historically, any kind of coordinated national voter fraud effort in a major election, whether it’s by mail or otherwise.”

Despite Wray’s explicit use of historically in reference to past elections, the mainstream media jumped on the opportunity to twist his words. CNN reported, “In the space of a single sentence uttered Thursday, FBI Director Christopher Wray unwound months of wild conspiracy theories pushed by President Donald Trump and his allies about mail-in ballots in the 2020 election.”

In the name of the pandemic, unattended ballot drop boxes began to spring up like mushrooms after a spring rain. Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson ordered poll challengers to stand six feet away from election inspectors, rendering them unable to read computer screens and do their jobs.

Signature matching? Assume all signatures are valid, Benson proclaimed in wild abandonment of Michigan law. If a returned ballot failed to match the one issued to the voter, the secretary’s elections manual trained clerks to count it anyway—in direct conflict with state law requiring the rejection of mismatched in-person ballots.

Election Day

We watched in consternation on Nov. 3, 2020, as election administrators plastered cardboard over windows to block onlookers from viewing the ballot-counting process. Social media reported absentee ballot curing without checks and balances.

The next morning, we woke to counts that had toggled like light switches from red to blue in key swing states. An image went viral of a van loaded with ballots arriving at Detroit’s TCF Center at 3 AM. Wayne County reported more out-of-balance precincts than Michigan’s other 82 counties combined, and Detroit topped the list with 70% of its precincts out of balance.

Out of balance, we learned, meant the number of voters did not match the number of counted ballots. In other words, the number of voters was not jiving with the number of votes cast in nearly three-quarters of Detroit’s precincts. Worse, votes from out-of-balance precincts were counted yet not subject to a recount.

In an apparent move to depressurize the pulsating volcano of public outrage, the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) repeated what had become the media mantra. “The November 3rd election was the most secure in American history.” No matter that CISA provided no evidence to support its kneejerk claim issued 11 short days after the election.

No worries, my friends and I decided. The Board of State Canvassers was sure to make those miscounted precincts reconcile before the board would certify the election results.

Instead, Democrat canvassers clamored and cajoled and whispered false promises of an audit into the ears of the two Republican holdouts. Meanwhile, death threats were leveled at one of the recalcitrant canvasser’s children. Paintballs from ever-present and increasingly belligerent picketers peppered both the GOP canvassers’ homes.

Nov. 23, 2020, the canvassers certified the election.

Reading the room

The twisting of words. The parroting of identical phrases. The unauthorized trampling on election laws. The wildly unsubstantiated proclamations without any pretense of authentic investigations. The obvious orchestration of Antifa-like attacks on the canvassers—All these factors combined to create a spooky, other-world mosaic, as if Michigan had teleported into a time-space continuum within the post-election borders of Venezuela, Iran, or Russia. (China was off the table because the CCP does not bother with having elections.)

Concerned citizens gathered and asked probing questions. Curious minds began to study the laws and send Freedom Of Information Act requests for public records. Day by day, new puzzle pieces fitted into place, and a nagging question took shape:

Had the government that We the People trusted to represent us and to oversee fair and impartial elections let us down?

The January reset

Regardless of whether provocateurs triggered the Jan. 6, 2021, riot or the situation devolved of its own accord, the events at the Capitol put an end to discussions regarding election irregularities during the joint session of Congress. U.S. Representatives and Senators voted to certify Joe Biden as President.

January 6th Demonstrations

As early as Jan. 7, the New York Times and other publications started calling the riot an “insurrection” and an attempted “coup.” The media raged about four or five “deaths.” In truth, only one death occurred of unnatural causes. Protester Ashli Babbit, an unarmed military veteran, was shot while entering the Capitol through a broken window. Shooter Lt. Michael Byrd, whose name was withheld for months, was never charged. To date, charges for Jan. 6 rioters have ranged from trespassing to assault. No one has been charged with insurrection.

Later, the Wall Street Journal concluded, “The idea that Donald Trump and his followers had any chance of overthrowing the U.S. government, or even that they aimed at that outcome, is a delusion.”

On Jan. 11, in response to citizens exercising their constitutional right to demand an audit, Secretary Benson ordered a Risk Limiting Audit. RLAs sample a small number of ballots in a select number of precincts. Plus, they allow multiple attempts to reach the desired outcomes. A judge, who chose not to recognize RLAs as more shell game than an audit, ruled the SOS had fulfilled her obligation.

Bullies gotta gloat

In a surprisingly brazen move, a self-described “cabal” took a chest-thumping victory lap in a Time magazine tell-all interview. “The Secret History of the Shadow Campaign That Saved the 2020 Election, published Feb. 4, 2021, revealed, in jaw-dropping self-confessions, the existence of “a well-funded cabal of powerful people, ranging across industries and ideologies, working together behind the scenes to influence perceptions, change rules and laws, steer media coverage and control the flow of information.”

The article described the disparate grouping of players as a “conspiracy unfolding behind the scenes, one that both curtailed the protests and coordinated the resistance from CEOs,” resulting in an “informal alliance between left-wing activists and business titans.”

In other words, the leftist interviewees were bursting with pride at having pulled off the greatest political heist in history, the actual coup.

As if to dispel any lingering doubts as to the ruthless attack on our constitutional republic, the Epoch Times exposed the ringleaders’ inherent admissions to subverting the rule of law:  “Time Magazine Details the ‘Shadow Campaign’ Against Trump. ‘They were not rigging the election; they were fortifying it,’ Time magazine says.”

A populist movement is born.

The initial daze of the election settled into lock-jawed determination. Citizens tuned out the bureaucrat’s incessant harping about contracting COVID-19 and, instead, began to exercise their unalienable right to assemble. From accountants to zoning inspectors, people from all walks of life shared their unique perspectives and skills. They put their differences aside and united around one cause: Now was the time for every good person to come to the aid of their country.

Patriots slipped through backdoors into cafés and classrooms. Pure Integrity Michigan Elections (PIME) started with a group of eight friends seated around a kitchen table. MC4EI, Faithful Patriots, EIF…the list of allies grew to more than 150.

Citizens, previously unengaged in politics, educated themselves on the political system. PIME supporters studied election bills and testified at more than 30 legislative hearings over the course of 12 months. Residents flocked to the school board and county commissioner meetings. They went to battle against the National Popular Vote and kept it out of the state.

In March 2022, PIME published Anne Hill’s Lights Out report, documenting 36% anomalies in East Lansing’s voter rolls, with 1,935 (21%) of those ineligible voters casting counted ballots.

During the Michigan GOP Endorsement Convention, populist newcomers rolled through established incumbents like bowling balls thundering through wooden pins.

Kristina Karamo and Matt DePerno

Between April and June 2021, during two Senate Elections Committee hearings via Zoom, the Secretary of State Benson admitted to mailing, unsolicited, 7.7 million absentee ballot applications. Approximately 500,000 of those mailers were postmarked undeliverable and returned.

“What happened to them?” Sen. Johnson asked, to no response. She later wrote, “I’m not sure if she ever removed them from the QVF [qualified voter file].” She estimated that 300,000 misaddressed applications were never reported because the mailers neglected to ask recipients to notify the SOS office if the addressees were not residents. About 400 concerned citizens took the initiative to alert Sen. Johnson to the breach of election integrity.

Prior to leaving office to take her seat as a newly elected senator in 2019, Johnson left incoming SOS Benson 177,000 ineligible voters to remove from the voter rolls, “per the federal laws, as they were flagged in the QVF count down.” Unfortunately, Johnson said, Secretary Benson kept them on the rolls and sent them absentee ballot applications.

“Out of all the pre-filled out absentee ballot applications she [Benson] sent out, I believe over 800,000 were to non-qualified voters,” Johnson said. “A judge ruled this was wrong. Too late to fix.”

Tallies gave Joe Biden the win in Michigan by around 154,000 votes.

Sunrise or sunset?

“If people don’t think they have the power to solve their problems, they won’t even think about how to solve them.”

―Saul Alinsky, Rules for Radicals

If one stumbling block may thwart the left’s rabid appetite for taking over this nation, it is the pesky issue of America’s heritage. Communism, often disguised under the less repugnant terms of socialism and Marxism, depends on the subjugation of the people. For totalitarianism to seize control, the people must bow to their overlords. But Americans tend to be can-do individuals, descended of rugged pioneers and leather-skinned cowboys, from tenacious immigrants and inventive entrepreneurs.

Cuban-Americans rally for Trump in Miami.

One testimonial to the resilience of one’s heritage may be found in Owosso barber Karl Manke. After state bureaucrats pulled his business license and issued a court order for him to shutter his doors, and under threat of being carted off to jail, Manke continued to snip the hair of his customers. His stream of customers grew to a flood of raging rapids as supporters poured in from all parts of the state.

“I’ve got one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel—I could care less,” the feisty 77-year-old great-grandfather told the media in May 2020. Manke’s case worked its way to the Michigan Supreme Court.

In June 2020, Manke prevailed against the overreaching government.

Governor Gretchen Whitmer ignored the Mich. Supreme Court ruling and persisted in choking off the lifeblood of small businesses in favor of feeding the distended bellies of large corporations.

July 2021, more than a year after the Manke ruling, Unlock Michigan’s successful grassroots petition forced the governor to stand down. Driven by poor judgment or spite (or both), she deployed her Dept. of Health and Human Services to re-impose her “mandates.”

The people’s Unlock 2 petition emerged on the horizon.

Today

In the August 2022 primary, Flint Democrat election inspectors outnumbered Republicans 92% to 6%, and that city was hardly atypical. With the aid of Erick Kaardal, special counsel to the Thomas More Society, PIME filed a demand letter. Two days later, the clerk resigned.

The left, in response to the pinch of resistance, has ratcheted up its Saul Alinsky tactics. But try as they might to paint skeptical citizens as insurrectionists, conspiracy theorists, and election deniers, this nation’s heart beats to the rhythm of dissent.

It’s okay to doubt. In fact, it is a citizen’s duty.

This penchant for silencing free speech lies at the core of why totalitarian regimes are doomed to fail. Despots crush new ideas and innovation. Just as in 1633, the pope confined Galileo to house arrest for the remainder of his life because the man with a telescope had the audacity to claim that Earth revolved around the Sun. So too, the left sees free speech as a threat to their world order.

Liberty takes root in free speech’s fertile soil, and where there exists the open exchange of ideas, truth will grow. The fundamental underpinning of our republic comes down to one sentence: People are endowed by their creator to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

This brings me back to my stare-down contest with Belle. The year 1633 is long gone, but one would be mistaken to assume these are safer times. This nation, having avoided a global kinetic war for the past 70-plus years, is ill-prepared for asymmetrical warfare. The enemies of freedom have aligned to bring down the sole superpower blocking their path to world domination.

I hope Belle never wakes to wonder how her universally popular candidate lost yesterday’s election. May she never hear her gender-transitional grandchild say his real mother is the Motherland and his classmates are his real family. May she never be told that her social score has nosedived because her grandchild turned in his biological father for speaking ill of the Great Leader. May Belle never have to forego travel because she is forbidden to charge her electric car, or she cannot buy a new battery because one nation controls all the rare earth minerals, manufactures the batteries, and has embargoed our shores. May the grocery store shelves never go bare in Belle’s lifetime. May she never be forced to surrender her guns, her gold, and the deed to her land because ownership of those items and private property is forbidden. May she never be told her hardships come from capitalist pig landlords or Jews or racist nationalists who hate her. Let us hope Belle never has to ask, How did this happen?

“Any revolutionary change must be preceded by a passive, affirmative, non-challenging attitude toward change among the mass of our people. They must feel so frustrated, so defeated, so lost, so futureless in the prevailing system that they are willing to let go of the past and change the future. This acceptance is the reformation essential to any revolution.”

BOOM! Election Cheaters In This State Have Been Formally Placed On Notice: “If you are someone who is illegally trafficking ballots and depositing them at drop boxes, we are watching”

Individuals and groups who’ve dedicated hundreds of hours as volunteers trying to find ways to protect our vote have joined forces with others who’ve been investigating the results of the 2020 election to deliver a very strong message to anyone in Michigan who is thinking about stealing the vote in the upcoming Nov. 2022 election.

Potential ballot trafficker in Detroit caught on video in Detroit by MC4EI, the Gateway Pundit, and 100 Percent Fed Up.

Operation 2022 Election Overwatch is NOW ACTIVE!

Here is the list of warnings for those who desire to steal the votes of a law-abiding, registered voters in MI:

Everyday citizens all across America have been deployed to ensure that the 2022 elections are conducted in a lawful manner. Attempts to ensure that our elections were conducted in a lawful manner during the 2020 election were largely reactive in nature. Now that we know how the integrity of the 2020 election was subverted, individuals and organizations dedicated to election integrity will now be proactive in their efforts to ensure lawful elections.

If you are someone who seeks to cast a vote illegally, we are watching.

If you are someone who is illegally trafficking ballots and depositing them at drop boxes, we are watching.

If you are someone who has left the key under the mat for digital thieves to manipulate election records, we are watching.

If you are a digital thief seeking to manipulate election records, we are watching.

If you are tabulating votes at a location that does not allow oversight by the public, we are watching.

If you are manipulating our voter rolls so as to allocate ballots to people who did not actually vote be they dead or alive, we are watching.

If you are attempting to provoke lawful citizens to conduct acts of violence, we are watching and we will not take your bait.

If you attempt to masquerade agent provocateurs as members of our groups, we are watching and we will ensure the world knows the truth.

If you are an elected official pursuing policies that seek to cover up illegal election practices, we are watching.

If you are destroying election records before they can legally be destroyed, we are watching.

In the final analysis, it is more transparency that will give the general public confidence in the results of our elections not less.

We are a nation of laws.

We now have a cadre of law enforcement officers dedicated to enforcing our laws. We now have a cadre of lawyers dedicated to prosecuting violations of our laws. We now have a cadre of judges willing to judge cases on the merits of the evidence not false narratives by media pundits.

We are law enforcement officers. We are poll workers. We are election officials. We are poll challengers. We are everyday citizens.

In the wake of the rapid decline of our nation after the 2020 election, we now have an American public who is growing increasingly aware of the importance of election integrity.

No more lawlessness. No more suppression of lawful votes.

FLINT, MI: Dem City Clerk Abruptly Retires After She’s Threatened With Lawsuit For Refusing To Allow Same Number of GOP Poll Challengers As Democrats In Nov Election

On Sept. 6, Pure Integrity Michigan Elections and Attorney Erick Kaardal of the Thomas More Society, sent Flint a Demand Letter. Either balance the skewed number of election inspectors from 92% Democrat/6% Republican to 50-50 or expect legal filings.

On Sep. 8, Inez Brown, clerk of 25 years, resigned effective Sep. 30.

Sudden resignations tend to raise eyebrows, so when NPR reported the imminent departure of a major city clerk, the move garnered wide-eyed surprise. “Inez Brown has been Flint’s city clerk for 25 years. But at Wednesday night’s city council meeting, Brown announced she would be stepping down at the end of the month.”

On Sept. 6, two days before giving her three-week notice, the clerk and a who’s-who list of Flint officials received a demand letter. Either balance the city’s skewed number of election inspectors from 92% Democrat and 6% Republican to 50-50 or brace for legal filings stated the letter from Pure Integrity Michigan Elections and Attorney Erick Kaardal, Special Counsel for the Thomas More Society.

So, was the 25-year-veteran clerk’s resignation coincidence?

“I think not,” said Patrice Johnson, chair of PIME. “This is a huge win.”

Still, the clerk’s resignation raises questions as to how Flint will fill the vacancy. According to the NPR article, Flint has asked the Secretary of State to help with the approaching November elections.

“How is it that Flint could have such a weak bench that no underlings can fill a departing clerk’s shoes?” Johnson asked.

According to Michigan law, the conduct of the elections falls under the purview of county, township, or municipal clerks. The City of Flint is part of Flint Township, so asking for the township’s assistance is the next logical step. If not the township, then why not have Genesee County lend a hand?

Johnson, who hails from the corporate business world, explained that when a CEO departs in a rush, companies typically elevate an employee or contract outside leadership on a temporary basis. Turning the city’s elections over to the state seems too great a leap. “It’s equivalent to a large corporation handing the reins over to the Federal Trade Commission.”

If a person is running for office, the law states that person is prohibited from serving as an election inspector in the precinct in which he or she is running. It seems the same concept should apply for a secretary of state running for re-election.

The PIME/Thomas More Society Demand Letter stated in no uncertain terms, that “the City of Flint cease and desist spending taxpayer funds on its election inspector operations for the November 8, 2022, mid-term elections until it comes into legal compliance with the legally-required party balance for election inspectors in Flint. Michigan Compiled Laws § 168.674(2)”

“Flint for the August primary had approximately 481 election inspectors: 442 Democratic election inspectors, only 27 Republican election inspectors, and 12 other/unidentified party affiliation inspectors. The following pie chart demonstrates the stark differences in party affiliation (92% Democrat to 6% Republican).”

Now the question becomes whether Secretary of State Benson, who is up for re-election, can impartially administer an election.

Johnson suggested the Flint City Council consider hiring a new clerk who possessed the following qualifications:
  • A commitment to achieving and maintaining a 50-50 party balance for election inspectors
  • An unbiased, nonpartisan position and a willingness to do what it takes to facilitate fair and honest elections
  • A functional understanding of Michigan and Federal election law and know how to access the laws as needed for reference.
  • Outstanding references as a knowledgeable and experienced clerk
  • No criminal record. No felonies
  • Commitment to election integrity.

Here’s Why MI Residents MUST Vote NO on Radical “Promote the Vote”...The Most Dangerous PRO-ELECTION FRAUD Proposal In State’s History

A Guest Post by Joe Brandis, President of Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity (MC4EI.com)

In November, Michigan citizens need to Vote No on Proposal 2, the Right to Voting Policies Amendment, which is the “Promote the Vote” Initiative. This proposal would fundamentally change the way elections are conducted in the State of Michigan. It would be part of the Michigan Constitution and, therefore, be very difficult to change in the future. The Constitution is not designed to put every law into effect that we can’t pass through the legislative process. Changes to the U.S. and State Constitution should be rare and of extreme importance.

Take away- It should be rare and difficult to change the Constitution.

What are the changes to the Michigan Constitution that this proposal would impose? There are a number of moving parts to this, but you probably have seen people gathering signatures on petitions at events. It always sounds good in the way it is initially presented to the public; however, the real meat is in the fine print that almost no one reads. We have heard from elected officials that you need to pass a bill to know what’s in it. (Remember Pelosi’s famous line “they have to pass Obamacare before the American people can see what’s in it” statement in 2009? However, in 2017, Pelosi said just the opposite in a letter to Speaker Paul Ryan in regards to Republican efforts to amend Obamacare, “Americans have a right to know what’s in the bill before we pass it.”)  

We believe Americans should know what is in a bill and especially what is proposed as a constitutional amendment before agreeing to it.

So how many signatures were needed? For the proposition, you only needed 10% of the vote from the previous gubernatorial race. In this case, it amounted to 425,000 signatures. Do you really think we should have just 1 in 10 voters decide what goes on the ballot which will change our Constitution and fundamentally change the way we conduct our elections?  In many cases, ballot petitions are circulated by paid workers. It can cost millions to conduct a ballot drive, and the money usually comes from a host of special interest groups. Should we allow special interest groups to determine what should be in our State Constitution?

Take away- Only 1 in 10 voters were needed in order to get the Proposal on the ballot.

Thus, the Proposition goes on the ballot, and if you get 50% approval plus one vote it’s approved. Remember, just 10% of the voters in Michigan decided to place this on the ballot. This is not good no matter where you are on the political spectrum.  Especially, if the voters are not fully informed or aware of the consequences.

Ballot workers tend to spin a petition to get you to sign it. They are paid to get signatures, so they will tell you all of the good things that are in the petition. If you don’t read the fine print you will be stuck with a lot of things you were never told when you signed the petition.  The fine print consists of about 1660 words. A lot more words than voters saw on the petitions they may have signed.

Take away- If you haven’t read the fine print, vote No on any proposal that changes the Constitution.

On this past Memorial Day, I attended an event in Plymouth Twp, MI. After the event was over I noticed a group of young people fully masked up and carrying clipboards around gathering signatures. I wondered what this was about. I wandered over, and I watched as a husband and wife were in the process of signing a petition for Promote The Vote. Did you ever notice that the title always sounds great? Who doesn’t want to Promote The Vote? I listened to the pitch, and it sounded fantastic. You will have shorter voting lines at the polls, and it is going to protect the vote of our military men and women serving overseas. I could just see that the couple signing the petition thought that this was such a patriotic endeavor. So with the flag at half-staff in the background, they commenced signing of the petition. Now, the husband was standing back a little and didn’t seem so sure, but the wife was halfway through signing her name. Being curious, I asked the petition circulator what was on the paper that the woman was signing. He didn’t seem too interested in talking because he was probably making $6-$8 for getting this signature. I asked if this was the petition that was going to change the constitution. Is this the petition that will increase the number of drop boxes and allow outside money to flow into our elections? Actually, I said, “Zuck Bucks.” The woman stopped in the middle of signing, and the husband said, “thank you for stopping by; I thought this might not be good but just didn’t know.” The wife, at that point, said “sorry” and crossed out her name on the petition. The point is, that neither she nor her husband understood what was in the fine print. When they knew just a little they then understood that it wasn’t something they wanted to support. The petitioner got away from me and moved on to others with his stump speech of how this petition is so patriotic and common sense.

Here are the most egregious items that  voters need to know about the Right to Vote Policies Amendment:

  1. A citizen has the fundamental right to vote without harassment or interference.  If harassed, a lawsuit can be filed.

     (Who doesn’t support this? There is a 100 ft rule already in place.  Who decides 

     what constitutes harassment?  Is handing out campaign literature? What about if a 

      poll challenger of the opposing party issues a “challenge” to the process of voting 

      tabulation or poll worker conduct?  Michigan election law allows for this.  Will this 

       amendment override this?)

     2. Right to vote with a photo ID or by signing an affidavit if one does not have a 

     photo ID!  And if a voter signs an affidavit, the ballot does not even have to be

     considered a provisional ballot.

(Meaning that there is no verification to be performed.  This is a glaring contradiction and a trick perpetrated on citizens to make them think a photo ID is required when in reality, one can get out of it by signing an affidavit.  Who are they kidding?)

  3.  Provides for many more drop boxes – about 2000 or more!  Just look at some

       of what MC4EI found upon analysis of the Detroit drop box surveillance videos

       in the 2020 General Election. 

Drop boxes are a magnet for ballot traffickers.

    Shocking Video!  Via MC4EI and Gateway Pundit- 13 Minutes of Never-Before-

    Seen Footage of Ballot Trafficking in Detroit, Michigan- including Postal Workers! 

4. The Secretary of State shall conduct all election audits and no other outside

     organizations are allowed to be involved. 

(This eliminates the right for people to seek redress of grievances against election malfeasance.  Regardless if the incumbent government officials are Democrats or Republicans, there should be unbiased auditing of elections. If election officials are implicated in election fraud, how can they be the ones tasked with investigating it?  They should recuse themselves.)

 4.   Outside, private money may be accepted by counties, cities, or townships in  

       conducting an election.

 (This is codifying into the State Constitution the infamous Zuckerbucks type of intervention that occurred in the 2020 election.  Do we really want billionaires influencing the outcome of our elections?)  

Take away- Why is there so much in the fine print of this ballot initiative that is not clearly delineated and explained to the public?

I served as a sub-caucus chairman at the Oakland County Republican Party county convention in August of this year.  I had to take an oath to uphold, protect and defend the US and State Constitutions.  Who is going to defend the Michigan Constitution from this assault on election integrity and security?  

Most voters don’t know half of what is in this amendment. This should be left up to our elected officials to work out for future elections. Don’t let 10% of the voters or about 4% of the population of Michigan change our Constitution. Vote No on Proposition 2.

BREAKING: Mark Zuckerberg Hit With Legal Complaints Over Allegedly Influencing 2020 Election

Leading up to the 2020 Presidential election, Facebook/Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg infused nearly half a billion dollars in to groups that attempted to influence the 2020 election.

The grants were allegedly used to help election administrators deal with the infrastructure challenges of running an election during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Center for Renewing America (CRA) filed legal complaints against Zuckerberg and his wife for using the grants to tip the scales in favor of President Biden.

A previous complaint against Zuckerberg filed with the Federal Elections Commission (FEC) was dismissed earlier this year

The Center for Renewing America alleges that most of the grant money went to election administrators in swing states in Democratic jurisdictions.

Zuckerberg hired a former Obama campaign manager to distribute the grants.

The Gateway Pundit Reports–

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, his wife and three voting rights groups were hit Thursday with legal complaints alleging malfeasance related to activities surrounding the 2020 election.

The Center for Renewing America (CRA) filed two complaints — the first against Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan and the second against the groups Center for Tech and Civic Life (CTCL), Center for Election Innovation and Research (CEIR) and National Vote at Home Institute (NVAHI) — Thursday morning with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).

The complaints, obtained by FOX Business, allege that Zuckerberg and the three groups were involved in a scheme to inject nearly $500 million into the 2020 election in order to “throw it” to President Biden. Biden ultimately defeated former President Trump, winning key swing states Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

Zuckerberg hired former Obama campaign manager David Plouffe to spearhead the effort, according to the CRA. Plouffe allegedly funneled most of the hundred-million-dollar grants from the couple to Democratic-leaning jurisdictions in swing states via the three tax-exempt voting rights groups ahead of the November 2020 election.

Bad News For Democrats As New Poll is Released Ahead of November Elections

A new poll conducted by the New York Times and Siena College has revealed that voters overwhelmingly trust Republicans over Democrats to manage the US economy, not boding well for the Democratic party ahead of the November midterm elections.

While the US economy suffers from an inflation crisis, and the Biden administration spends exorbitant amounts of money on its “Inflation Reduction Act” and forgiving student loans, Americans are growing increasingly concerned with the country’s economic stability.

The Times/Siena poll shows that about 52% of voters trust Republicans to manage the economy, while only 38% trust Democrats. A mere 1% of respondents agree with both political parties’ proposals to manage the economy.

Although the Democrats have desperately tried to refocus voters on social issues like abortion, an earlier edition of the same poll showed that the most important issue to voters right now is largely economic issues, with 20% of respondents saying it is the “most important problem facing the country today,” and about 76% saying it would be “extremely important” to them when deciding how to vote.

Senior citizens are being forced out of retirement because of the inflation rates and poor state of the economy, Americans are feeling the pain of the rising prices, and meanwhile, Biden insists that the record-high inflation isn’t that bad,

Reuters “Journalist” Gets BRUTAL DOSE OF TRUTH After He Harasses Election Integrity Group Who Uncovered Potentially Huge Ballot Trafficking Scheme In Detroit [VIDEO]

Nathan Layne is a “journalist” for Reuters.

Reuters “journalist” Nathan Layne

On Twitter, Nathan regularly shares articles he’s written attacking Americans working to uncover voter fraud or close loopholes that allow individuals or groups to commit voter fraud in America. One of his favorite subjects is Matt DePerno, who is arguably the most popular MI GOP candidate to ever run for attorney general, and who has an excellent chance of defeating Michigan’s lawless Democrat AG Dana Nessel.

Last week, after hunting for a special prosecutor willing to take her case for months, Nessel was able to find a Democrat prosecutor on the west side of the state who was willing to “investigate” DePerno’s role in the examination of a tabulator that a clerk voluntarily surrendered in northern MI. According to Nathan’s reporting, Michigan’s dishonest Sec. of State Jocelyn Benson asked the lawless Nessel to investigate DePerno. A recent poll that heavily favors Democrats shows Nessel is in a dead heat with DePerno less than two months before the November election.

Now, it appears as though Nathan has turned his sights on the exceptional MI election integrity group MC4EI.

For the past several months, the Gateway Pundit and 100 Percent Fed Up have been working with MC4EI, an all-volunteer election integrity group, to pour through over 16,000 hours of legally obtained drop box footage from Detroit. The videos we’ve released based on the findings by the amazing investigative team at MC4EI have been both stunning and horrifying.

Here is one example:

On September 14, 2022, Joe Brandis of MC4EI received an email from Reuters “journalist” Nathan Layne. Brandis was stunned that a Reuters journalist would care about their annual tax returns.

Here’s a copy of the email that Joe forwarded to 100 Percent Fed Up.

I called Nathan to ask why he was asking this brave group of patriots for their tax returns. Nathan wouldn’t answer my question and instead referred me to Heather Carpenter, Senior Director of Communications for Reuters. I wanted a response from Nathan, so I responded directly to him in an email.

Here is my response to Nathan’s ridiculous request, which, in my opinion, is nothing more than an intimidation tactic being used by a leftist thug “reporter” to make MC4EI think twice about sharing any more information they may discover in the Zuckerberg-funded Detroit drop boxes.

Hi, Nathan.

I’m writing an article about your email to Joe Brandis requesting tax returns from the MC4EI group, who has done an amazing job exposing the corruption in Michigan’s elections. My goal is to shine a bright light on the lack of curiosity by the mainstream media and the partisan hack MI Sec of State Jocelyn Benson and lawless AG Dana Nessel, who appear to have no interest in the people captured on video surveillance footage who are potentially guilty of illegal ballot trafficking in Detroit. As I’m sure you know, multiple drop box videos analyzed by MC4EI have been released by the Gateway Pundit, and 100 Percent Fed Up and have been made available on public platforms for several months.

You could have contacted Joe Brandis to ask questions about the volunteer election group’s stunning discoveries, but instead, you sent an email asking for tax-related information.

This is just more evidence of how the Democrat Party works hand-in-hand with corporate media to threaten or intimidate anyone who gets too close to the truth about voter fraud.

If you cared about the truth, you would’ve asked Joe Brandis about the 16,000 hours of legally obtained surveillance footage from Detroit that includes stunning footage of multiple women dropping stacks of up to 50 ballots into drop boxes when the state of MI election law clearly states each voter can only drop their own ballot into a drop box. If you were an honest journalist, you would’ve asked why tabulators were being dropped off at a satellite voting center where according to top election officials, votes are not allowed to be tabulated, as captured in the video surveillance footage by MC4EI. Perhaps you might have even asked how many USPS workers MC4EI captured dropping off stacks of ballots into drop boxes. These things don’t interest you because you’re not interested in discovering the answers to these questions; you’re only interested in attempting to dig up dirt that you hope will harm the brave American patriots who dedicated hundreds of hours to view these tapes.

Although I’ve made my assumptions about your intentions clear, I’d still love to hear why you sent this email to Mr. Brandis and why Reuters is asking for MC4EI’s tax returns? What is the purpose of your request?

Please be advised that this is an “on the record” conversation, and I’ll be including your response in my article about how Reuters uses their “journalists” to intimidate and threaten innocent Americans who get too close to the truth.

I look forward to your response.

All the best,

BREAKING! DOJ Sources Say Facebook Has Been Spying on User’s Private Messages And Reporting Them to FBI if They Question 2020 Election or Express Anti-Government or Anti-Authority Views

According to sources within the Department of Justice, Facebook has been spying on its users’ private messages and reporting them to the FBI if they express any anti-government or anti-authority sentiments.

As part of this operation, Facebook would flag these private messages and send them over to the FBI’s domestic terrorism unit in Washington, DC.

One anonymous source alleged that this invasion of privacy “was done outside the legal process and without probable cause.”

“Facebook provides the FBI with private conversations which are protected by the First Amendment without any subpoena,” the source added, reporting that there was no existing subpoena for these private messages.

FBI field offices repeatedly requested subpoenas from the US Attorney’s office in their district so they could legally view the private Facebook conversations, although the Bureau had already obtained and viewed them.

Some of the Facebook users tied to the private messages became the target of investigations, but nothing was turned up from any of the surveillance.

All Facebook users put under investigation were “conservative right-wing individuals.” Meanwhile, there are actual criminals in the country that the FBI was not looking into because they were wasting their time monitoring “dangerous” right-wing political discussions.

Yesterday, Facebook denied the allegations that they participated in any illegal investigation process. The global technology company released two separate statements that conflicted with one another in response to the surfaced accusations.

In the first statement, Erica Sackin, a spokesperson for Meta, Facebook’s parent company, said,

“These claims are false because they reflect a misunderstanding of how our systems protect people from harm and how we engage with law enforcement. We carefully scrutinize all government requests for user information to make sure they’re legally valid and narrowly tailored and we often push back. We responded to legal requests for information in accordance with applicable law and our terms and we provide notice to users whenever permitted.”

However, just one hour later, Sackin released a second, updated statement on the situation. She changed the gist of her initial statement from the claims about the Facebook and FBI partnership being “false,” to the claims being “wrong.”

Her second statement said,

“These claims are just wrong. The suggestion we seek out peoples’ private messages for anti-government language or questions about the validity of past elections and then proactively supply those to the FBI is plainly inaccurate and there is zero evidence to support it.”

On Wednesday, the FBI responded to some of the allegations being made against it, saying,

“The FBI maintains relationships with U.S. private sector entities, including social media providers. The FBI has provided companies with foreign threat indicators to help them protect their platforms and customers from abuse by foreign malign influence actors. U.S. companies have also referred information to the FBI with investigative value relating to foreign malign influence. The FBI works closely with interagency partners, as well as state and local partners, to ensure we’re sharing information as it becomes available. This can include threat information, actionable leads, or indicators. The FBI has also established relationships with a variety of social media and technology companies and maintains an ongoing dialogue to enable a quick exchange of threat information.”

Tsunami U.S. Supreme Court Case Headed Our Way, As Two Election Integrity Groups File Brief That Will “will either strengthen or weaken our democracy for generations”

A guest post by author Patrice Johnson

The United States Supreme Court has announced it will hear an N. Carolina redistricting case, and it’s a whopper. The tsunami force of the high court’s ruling is expected to affect federal and state elections at all levels. At issue is who has ultimate authority over this nation’s elections: The courts? The federal government? State legislatures?

When the justices hand down their ruling, expected next June, the U.S. Congress and 50 state supreme courts will bow to the high court’s decision. Leftist governors and their secretaries of state across the fruited plain will either have their sails trimmed or feel emboldened to pull out the plugs in leaky election integrity dams.

Pure Integrity Michigan Elections and the Wisconsin Voter Alliance filed a brief with the Supreme Court. Yes, you read that right. On Sep. 2 at 9:45 AM, our organizations’ amici curiae brief went on the docket of the U.S. Supreme Court.

PIME, founded with eight people around a kitchen table less than two years ago, submitted what is called an Amici Curiae brief, Latin for friends of the court, with the Supreme Court of this nation. Amicus briefs are permitted to offer information, expertise, or insight that has bearing on a case’s issues. These briefs offer an assist to the court. The PIME/WVA brief supports neither party.

To view the WVA/PIME brief click here

Why this is a big deal 

The WVA/PIME brief states that the landmark case brings the high court “onto the cusp of constitutional peril as it relates to the application of the independent state legislature theory, to the election process under the Elections Clause and Electors Clause of the U.S. Constitution.”

It’s hardly an overstatement to suggest that the court’s ruling will either devastate or fortify the foundational core of the republic for generations to come. The amici curiae was written by Attorney Erick Kaardal, a partner with Mohrma, Kaardal & Erickson, P.A. and Special Counsel to Thomas More Society.

Origins of the case 

A dispute over who determines N. Carolina’s redistricting lines jarred the legal tidal wave into motion. Timothy K. Moore, speaker of the North Carolina House of Representatives, and Rebecca Harper and others came to loggerheads over who has the final say over the state’s redistricting lines. Moore maintains the authority rests with the elected state legislature. Harper and friends claim the power lies with the courts, whose judges are often appointed.

The case appealed its way up the ladder to the U.S. Supreme Court. SCOTUS generally defers to lower-court judgments and is reported to accept about 5% of the cases laid at its feet. On this rare occasion, the justices gave their nod to hearing the case.

Inherent constitutional questions

The independent state legislature doctrine and its meaning in the Elections Clause touch every voter and every branch of government. That’s why experts are forecasting the Supremes’ ruling will cascade through the legalities of federal election laws, Executive Orders, and future laws.

The WVA/PIME brief addresses the potential federal encroachments under the independent state legislature theory. Our organizations maintain that Biden’s Presidential Executive Order No. 14019, which commands government agencies to get out the vote in what appears to be a highly biased manner, represents government overreach. It’s legally unauthorized, and it’s big government pressing its thumb on the scales of individual liberty.

Take Michigan as an example. Last week, PIME filed a challenge to Promote the Vote (whom opponents refer to as Steal to Vote). The Board of State Canvassers voted 2-2, and the split decision kicked the proposal up to the Mich. Supreme Court. The state Supremes ruled to put Promote the Vote onto this November’s ballot.

If voters approve Promote the Vote, it will amend Michigan’s Constitution and hand over authority for our elections to the courts. (It will also allow billionaires to buy votes [Zuckerbucks], strip away voter ID requirements, thwart citizen oversight of elections, undermine chain of custody on ballots, allow ballot harvesting, require drop boxes, prohibit election integrity laws, and create a permanent absentee ballot list. But that’s a separate story.)

Since Federal law trumps state law, a Supreme Court ruling to uphold the independent state legislature doctrine would smash any conflicting state laws and constitutional provisions to smithereens.

“The doctrine can serve the people well or change the course of history and the meaning of democracy to generations to come affecting the integrity of elections and the electors’ confidence and acceptance of election outcomes (including the candidates themselves),” says the amici brief.

What the Constitution says about who should run our elections

The petitioners from N. Carolina are invoking the U.S. Constitution’s Elections Clause governing the “Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives . . . prescribed . . . by the Legislature thereof.” U.S. Const. art. I, § 4, cl. 1.

In a nutshell, the independent state legislature theory holds that the federal Constitution in Article I’s Elections Clause and Article II’s Presidential Electors Clause give to state legislatures the power to exclusively regulate federal elections, excluding state executive branch and judicial branch officials.

Why now

Subsequent to the 2020 elections, courts reined back what they determined were executive branch overreaches. For example, they ruled against Michigan’s Secretary of State, who eschewed election law and unilaterally mandated election observers to stand six feet away. She trained clerks to assume the signatures on all absentee ballots were valid.

Other issues have yet to be challenged in court, such as when voters return absentee ballots that aren’t the ones issued to them. The current SOS elections manual instructs workers to mark mismatched ballots as challenged and then to process them…to count them!

MI Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D) vetoed bipartisan legislation that would have prohibited private funding of election administration. She vetoed vote ID requirements.

Let us not forget the bothersome issue of Michigan’s SOS Jocelyn Benson’s handing management of the state’s voter rolls over to the Soros-funded, leftist organization ERIC, the Electronic Registration Information Center.

Ripple effects of ruling

Who gets to determine a state’s presidential electors? Is the governor allowed to veto a duly passed legislative bill on elections? Do courts or governors have any sway over legislative law when it comes to the people’s elections? Who dictates the rules for federal elections?

The answers are all on the table. How the court interprets the Elections and Electors clauses in the Constitution could become legal doctrine and “will either strengthen or weaken our democracy for generations.”

The rap of Chief Justice John Robert’s gavel will part the fog and let the light of the U.S. Constitution shine through.

This is the stuff of which legends are made.

THOUSANDS OF What Appear To Be ABSENTEE BALLOTS Are Loaded Into A Minivan With Indiana Plates At Detroit Satellite Voting Center Several Hours After Polls Closed On Election Day 2020 [VIDEO]

On the evening of the 2020 election, a full 3 hours and 15 minutes after the polls closed in Michigan, a white male dressed in a white shirt and black pants can be seen on drop box surveillance footage at the Heilmann Satellite Voting Center in Detroit working with a black male dressed all in black to load what appears to be thousands of absentee ballots into a minivan with Indiana license plates.

The two men are seen rolling a flatbed filled with 13 postal trays used to transfer ballots in Detroit, 3 large (heavy) storage containers, and a large filled blue bag with red straps (we believe this bag was used to transfer ballots from satellite voting centers, potentially to the Detroit City Clerk’s office), and two open boxes filled with absentee ballots into the back of a black minivan that is backed up next to the drop box. It should be mentioned that, according to a thorough examination of the surveillance tapes by MC4EI, a scant total of 95 ballots were deposited throughout the day on Election Day, and only ONE ballot was dropped off after 6 pm on Election Day—so, where is this massive haul of ballots coming from?

When they are finished loading the contents of the flatbed, which includes several large black containers that are so heavy it requires two people to load them into the back of the minivan, they close the doors, and ONE person drives away, ALONE—with a van filled with thousands of ballots almost 3.5 hours after the polls have closed.

The number of ballots estimated to be inside the postal trays (if they are filled) is about 4,550. This number does not include the ballots shown inside the open boxes (1 USPS box and one cardboard box) where ballots are openly displayed inside, the blue bag with red straps, or the 3 very heavy black storage bins that are loaded into the van.

Aside from an unreadable lanyard worn around the neck of the white male in the white shirt and a “City of Detroit” magnet affixed to the passenger side front door of the van, there is no evidence that the person or the vehicle with Indiana license plates used to transport thousands of ballots just before midnight on Election Day was official.

It’s also worth noting that the man dressed in black walks past the minivan on the way to the parking lot as the man in the white shirt gets into the driver’s seat and pulls away from the voting center by himself. No chain of custody—no witnesses to say where those ballots were taken—and definitely no security for thousands of ballots from the hotly contested 2020 election.

The MC4EI team tasked with reviewing 16,000 hours of surveillance footage has painstakingly counted every ballot dropped into the drop box at the Heilmann voting center and determined that only 95 ballots were dropped at the drop box for the entire day. There were 6 pickups of ballots by election officials on Election Day, and after 6 pm, only ONE ballot was deposited into the Zuckerberg-funded drop box. Additionally, the number of people who entered the satellite voting center throughout the day on Election Day 2020 was also nowhere near the estimated number of ballots seen being hauled away from the Heilmann Center after 11 pm on Election Day in the black minivan with Indiana license plates.

This isn’t the first time we’ve witnessed “voter irregularities” at the Heilmann Satellite Voting Center.  On May 26, 2022, The Gateway Pundit and 100 Percent Fed Up released video footage showing two women working in unison to drop an estimated 50 ballots into the drop box. One woman deposited the massive stack of ballots while the other recorded her with her phone.

Note that throughout the video, both women who are OUTDOORS are wearing face masks, but when they get back inside the vehicle, the woman wearing the scrubs, who is also the driver, can be seen pulling the face mask down below her chin as they exit the parking lot. Is she removing her face mask because COVID is less transmissible inside a vehicle when she’s in close proximity with the passenger than when she was walking outdoors to the ballot drop box? Or is the mask just a great way to cover their faces as they drop a large stack of what appears to be absentee ballots into a drop box with surveillance cameras positioned above?

Even more curious than the women recording their massive dump of absentee ballots into the drop box at Heilmann is the video that we released on August 6, 2022, showing several tabulators being delivered to the Heilmann satellite voting center only one month before the election, where, according to top election officials Chris Thomas and Daniel Baxter, votes are not allowed to be tabulated!

Days before the Michigan Primary Election, MC4EI co-founders Phil O’Halloran and Joe Brandis, along with former MI Senator Patrick Colbeck, author of “the 2020 Coup” and keeper of the “Let’s Fix Stuff” election integrity website, were part of a walkthrough of the former TCF Center (now Huntington Place) where absentee ballots from Detroit are counted. During their walkthrough, Joe Brandis of MC4EI asked top election officials Chris Thomas and Daniel Baxter if any of the 20 satellite voting centers tabulated votes. Daniel Baxter replied, “No, they don’t tabulate there,” he replied. So, if “they don’t tabulate” votes at the satellite counting centers, why were four tabulators being delivered to the Heilmann Rec Center that doubles as a satellite voting center, one month before the November 3, 2020 election, as discovered by the MC4EI team in the drop box surveillance video seen below?

Were votes being tabulated at the Heilmann Satellite Voting Center? Is that why so many “absentee ballots” were loaded into the minivan just before midnight on Election Day? And where did those ballots go?

Phil O’Halloran of Mc4EI was interviewed by Trump attorney Christina Bobb, who was at the time working as a reporter for OAN, about the lack of security or chain of custody for absentee ballots being transferred from one location to another. During the interview, O’Halloran discusses the use of unofficial Detroit Election vehicles, many of which have out-of-state license plates (like the minivan shown above) that are used to transfer completed absentee ballots.

We were constantly gaslighted into believing that the November 2020 election was “the most secure election in history”! This was clearly not the case in what was observed in Detroit, either at the drop boxes or at the infamous TCF Center, where Republican poll challengers and watchers were ambushed, bullied, intimidated, and threatened. After considerable investigation, the MC4EI team concludes that it was the most INSECURE election ever, regardless of the ever-present misinformation and deception from mainstream media.

The number of same-day registrations in Detroit on election day was 1471. Hardly an earth-shattering number. Yet, we are to believe that a massive wave of absentee ballots descended on the AVCB (absent voter counting board) at the TCF center late into the night on Nov 3rd and into Nov 4th with early morning ballot dumps. And we are also being asked to believe that Trump’s lead was reversed by 450,000 votes to give Biden a 154,000 lead by early morning on Nov 5.

Sorry, but we’re still not buying it.

Oakland County, the second largest county in Michigan, finished its counting board duties and vote tallies around 9:30 pm on November 3. What was the problem in Detroit, Wayne County?

We’ll wait for Michigan’s Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, one of the chief architects behind the Zuckerberg-funded drop box scheme, to accuse us of publishing “misinformation” for releasing these videos while ignoring every video we’ve shared that calls into question the integrity of Detroit’s elections.

MI SOS Jocelyn Benson

Kristina Karamo is running for SOS in Michigan against Jocelyn Benson. She is a conservative rockstar who is promising to put an end to election fraud in Michigan. Because she’s addressing election fraud in Michigan and correcting the loopholes that allow massive cheating to happen, the establishment Republican donor class have refused to get behind her candidacy or help her to raise funds to defeat Jocelyn Benson in Michigan. Please check out her website here: KristinaKaramo.com

Watch her most recent speech at the GOP State Convention afterparty, where she got a standing ovation for her pledge to keep up her fight against voter fraud in Michigan, regardless of how many people in the donor class tell her to shut up.

Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity (MC4EI.com) was the team that analyzed thousands of hours of surveillance videos from the Detroit Drop Boxes in the November 2020 election. There were 19 drop box locations out of 30 that were investigated in the videos.

CHILLING Details of Biden’s Brownshirt Raids On Homes of Trump Supporters Explained: Media Was Informed BEFORE Raids “to instill fear into Trump supporters who would challenge election irregularities right before an upcoming election” [VIDEO]

In 1931, Hitler’s Brownshirts were infamous for operating outside of the law. They used intimidation and violence to force compliance of Jewish citizens in Germany.

Today, Joe Biden’s America is starting to feel an awful lot like Hitler’s Germany, and Trump supporters are beginning to understand what it means to be targeted and punished for being part of a group that must be purged and destroyed.

Joe Biden appears to be finishing the work started by his boss, Barack Obama, in 2008, when the Saul Alinsky disciple set out to divide America.

Yesterday afternoon, it was revealed that the residences of approximately 35 Trump supporters were raided by Joe Biden’s FBI yesterday. Of course, the FBI couldn’t be bothered to investigate Joe Biden’s crackhead son’s laptop before the election that contained evidence that should have landed both Joe and Hunter in prison, but they can be bothered to raid the homes of 35 Trump supporters in an effort to intimidate Trump loyalists like Boris Epshteyn (who is Jewish) was allegedly part of the sweeping raid.

“There were 35 FBI raids yesterday. There were 35 senior members of MAGA, supporters of Donald Trump, that the FBI rolled in on when they didn’t have to do it. The jackbooted Gestapo got to show up at their door and make a big display of this.”

Trump ally and top lawyer Harmeet Dillon confirmed the raids on the homes of “many Trump allies” she knows  in a tweet:

Last night, conservative powerhouse lawyer Harmeet Dhillon appeared on Tucker Carlson’s top-rated Fox News show to discuss details of the raids.

“Apparently, the FBI has launched a full-scale purge of supporters of Donald Trump. That would be Joe Biden’s likely opponent in the upcoming presidential election,” Tucker reminded his viewers at the top of his segment on Biden’s Brownshirts.

Harmeet Dhillion explained, “A few days ago, a Politico reporter called several people and asked,  ‘Have you heard, or have you been served yet? The FBI is going to be serving 50 approximately search warrants and or subpoenas on Trump supporters, and within 24 hours of that, 3 of our clients did either get search warrants or subpoenas.”

“These subpoenas are extremely broad,” she explained, adding, “They’re from the ‘Capitol Siege’ section of the United States Department of Justice’s DC office. And they asked for broad categories of documents. They ask for all communications dating from a month before the election back to two months after the election.”

Dhillon explained exactly who was included in the list of victims of Biden’s Brownshirts: “The categories are alternate electors, fundraising around irregularities around the election, and also a rally that happened  before the situation at the Capitol, so the Save America Rally that happened.” She added that “most of this activity, if not all of it, is protected by the First Amendment.”

She warned Tucker and his viewers that Biden’s dirty DOJ is using these jack-booted tactics right before the upcoming election as a way to warn Trump supporters to stand down. “The United States Justice Department is telling reporters about the search warrants and the subpoenas before they’re executed. There’s no other explanation for this. And I think the reason for this is to instill fear into Donald Trump supporters and into those who would challenge election irregularities right before an upcoming election,” she said.

Watch Steve Bannon explain the details of the raids to Charlie Kirk on his WarRoom show, where he calls them the “Gestapo” and revealed that the FBI didn’t go to the lawyers of the individual’s homes they raided. The only name Bannon, who is also part of the Brownshirt roundup by Biden and fellow Democrat thugs, was Boris Epshteyn. We will continue to update this story as more names become available.

Last month, Donald J. Trump, his family, his staff, and his lawyers got a first-hand look at what it must’ve felt like to be an enemy of the state in Germany during Hitler’s reign of terror.

In 1931, membership in the Brownshirts swelled to 2 million within only 2 years – twenty times as large as the number of troops and officers in the regular German Army.

The vast increase in membership was aided by unemployed men joining up due to the effects of the Great Depression. The Depression had caused American banks to call in all of their foreign loans (which had helped fund German industry) at very short notice, leading to a significant rise in unemployment. This encouraged people to turn to extreme political parties such as the Nazis, who appeared to offer simple solutions to their problems.

The parallels today to Nazi Germany are stunning.

You don’t even have to look that far…Joe Biden’s speech last week, where he railed against Trump supporters, calling them “a threat to democracy” and “extremists,” was enough for most Americans to understand that we, as a nation, are in for some very rough waters with divisive and hate-filled leadership at all levels of government and extending to our universities.

Here is a short excerpt from his vile speech:

And now, America must choose to move forward or to move backwards. To build a future or be obsessed about the past. To be a nation of hope and unity and optimism or a nation of fear, division, and of darkness.

MAGA Republicans have made their choice. They embrace anger; they thrive on chaos. They live not in the light of truth but in the shadow of lies. But together, we can choose a different path.

Sebastian Gorka had the perfect response to Joe Biden’s speech. Watch it here:

BOMBSHELL! Name of Elected Official Who is One of The Primary “Architects” Behind $419 MILLION Zuckerberg Election Scheme Is Revealed [VIDEO]

In March 2021, Michigan’s dishonest Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson was found to be in violation of Michigan election law by Michigan Judge Christopher Murray, who ruled that Michigan’s Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson did, in fact, break the law when she directed city clerks to ignore the signature matching law on absentee ballots in the 2020 election.

MI SOS Jocelyn Benson (AP Photo/Paul Sancya, File)

Judge Murray wrote that Benson, on Oct. 6, SOS Benson instructed clerks who were matching signatures that they “must perform” their duties under the “presumption” that the signature is valid and uphold the signature’s validity if there were “more matching features than non-matching features.” Whenever possible, clerks and election officials were instructed to resolve slight differences “in favor of finding that the voter’s signature was valid.”

Only two weeks ago, a judge ruled against the dishonest Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s attempt to stop a lawsuit forcing her to remove 29,000 DEAD VOTERS from the qualified voter rolls.

“It’s alarming that we have to sue the Secretary of State to get her to do her job,” said J. Christian Adams, president of the Public Interest Legal Foundation. “This initial win is the first step to ensuring that deceased registrants are not receiving ballots and reducing the opportunity for fraud in Michigan’s elections.”

PILF gave Benson plenty of time to act. The Foundation first notified the Secretary of State in 2020 about the nearly 26,000 deceased registrants on the state’s voter rolls. “After over a year of inaction, PILF sued her in Nov. 2021 to force her to remove these deceased registrants from the voter roll,” Adams said. “This week, we got our first win in the case.”

At issue were 25,975 deceased registrants from the voter rolls.

  • 23,663 registrants dead for five years or more
  • 17,479 registrants dead for at least a decade
  • 3,956 registrants  dead for at least 20 years

The United States Western District Court of Michigan denied Benson’s effort to dismiss PILF’s lawsuit for failing to remove deceased registrants from the state’s voter roll. The court also denied the motions of two leftist groups seeking to intervene. The Detroit/Downriver Chapter of the A. Philip Randolph Institute and the Michigan Alliance for Retired Americans, and Rise, Inc. were granted an opportunity to file a reply.

“The Court concludes that oral argument is unnecessary to resolve the issues presented,” wrote the judge on Aug. 25. “The court denies Secretary Benson’s motion to dismiss, grants the Proposed Intervenors leave to file a reply, and denies their motion to intervene.”

Now, the woman who (laughably) calls Michigan’s 2020 election the safest and most secure in the state’s history has been identified as one of the architects of what is quite possibly the most well-coordinated scheme to steal an election in modern history.

In 2020, at the peak of COVID, Mark Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan gave over $400 million to election groups with relatively benign-sounding names like CTCL (Center for Tech and Civic Life). The front story is that the money would be used to help facilitate safe elections during COVID. The actual story is that it was a well-coordinated scheme that gave third-party groups the ability to manipulate and ultimately affect the outcome of the 2020 election. Instead of being used on PPE, the Zuckerberg funds were instead used to “get out the vote” in critical Dem stronghold districts in swing states across America.

Thomas More Law Society lawyer Thor Hearne asserts that the Zuckerberg money inflow was claimed to relate to COVID and the need to purchase personal protective equipment, but reports show only a tiny percentage of the money was used to pay for COVID-related personal protective equipment.

“COVID dangers were used as a cover for providing Center for Tech and Civic Life monies to municipalities to boost Democrat candidates in the 2020 election through increased mail-in voting and ballot harvesting in predominantly urban jurisdictions and to the detriment of Michigan voters who live in suburban and rural jurisdictions of the state,” said Thor Hearne, Thomas More Society Special Counsel.

“Because the funds were channeled through Center for Tech and Civic Life, a ‘charity,’ and characterized as ‘grants,’ Zuckerberg’s ‘donations’ were not covered by campaign finance laws. Instead, they were unlimited and unregulated ‘dark money,’” said Hearne.

Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg

Hearne explained, “The Michigan Constitution guarantees every eligible citizen the right of equal protection when it comes to voting, and that means state officials may not put in place an election scheme that enhances the weight of votes cast by one class of voters or increases one favored class of voters’ access to the ballot. That’s just what happened here. Analysis of data that the Center for Tech and Civic Life provided to the Internal Revenue Service and other public records demonstrates that this scheme was designed to favor urban areas in Michigan and to disadvantage Michigan voters in rural and suburban more politically conservative areas.”

Until now, it wasn’t clear who was behind the scandal.

The non-profit Thomas More Law Society has filed a lawsuit against MI SOS Jocelyn Benson for her alleged role in the ‘Zuckerbucks’ scheme that used third-party money to buy drop boxes and fund satellite voting centers, specifically in Democrat stronghold areas of Detroit.

MI Democrat SOS Jocelyn Benson

From Thomas More Law Society: Benson allowed Mark Zuckerberg-funded organizations to pay local election officials millions of dollars in exchange for directing how the election officials conduct Michigan elections. At least $17 million of unreported payments were made to Michigan election officials. Evidence confirms that Benson was aware of this private funding scheme and even encouraged election officials to participate. The reply brief filed on August 30, 2022, in the Michigan Court of Appeals on behalf of a group of Michigan voters, addressed Benson’s claims that she is not responsible because “she did not personally hand out the money” and that the courts have no authority to review her failure to follow Michigan law because the election scheme occurred in the 2020 general election.

As for Benson’s claim that she is immune from judicial accountability because she did not personally hand out the money, Hearne disagrees. Benson is Michigan’s “Chief Election Responsibility.” She was elected to assure that every Michigan citizen and eligible voter has equal access to the ballot and that the election is conducted in a fair and just manner consistent with Michigan’s Election Code and state Constitution.

Election workers cover windows of the Detroit absentee ballot counting room to prevent GOP and Independent poll challengers who were locked out from viewing the counting process.

Benson does not dispute that “she is responsible for supervising Michigan elections and directing how Michigan – and other – election officials conduct the election,” Hearne stated. “Nor does she deny that she was fully aware of and supported this private funding scheme. Secretary Benson is asking the court to overlook her responsibility and hold that, because she did not personally pay the money to election officials, she bears no responsibility.”

Hearne noted that Benson actually encouraged local election officials to participate in the private funding scheme. And no one disputes the fact that Zuckerberg-funded organizations paid Michigan election officials close to $20 million, possibly more, and directed how these election officials would use this money to conduct Michigan elections.

The lawsuit against Benson was first filed in October 2020, challenging the almost $20 million paid by billionaire Facebook founder Zuckerberg to local election officials through a third-party charitable organization, the Center for Tech and Civic Life. In exchange for money paid to them by the Center for Tech and Civic Life, local election officials agreed to conduct the election in a manner to increase mail-in voting. The funds were given to predominantly Democratic urban jurisdictions, including the cities of Detroit and Flint. The Zuckerberg money was also used to buy remote unattended ballot drop-boxes that were used for allegedly illegal ballot harvesting.

The Gateway Pundit, 100 Percent Fed Up, and MC4EI have been working for months to compile evidence of [potential] voter fraud or ballot harvesting, using drop boxes paid for by Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan. MI election law allows each voter to drop their own ballot into a drop box. They are also able to drop ballots of immediate family members into the drop box. There are multiple instances of individuals dropping off 20+ ballots into the Detroit drop boxes at satellite voting centers.

Watch the stunning footage here:

This funding is referred to as “dark money,” or political spending meant to influence the decision of a voter, where the donor is not disclosed, and the source of the money is unknown. The bipartisan Carter-Baker Commission on Election Reform found that mail-in ballots were the most common mechanism for vote fraud and illegal voting. Remote unattended ballot drop boxes enable ballot harvesting schemes and undermine public confidence in the honesty and integrity of elections.

The Federalist looked into the connection behind MI Dem SOS Benson and Mark Zuckerberg. Here is a portion of their report – A nonprofit connected to Mark Zuckerberg-funded groups worked with Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson to influence state elections ahead of 2020. The changes include getting the state to alter how it used absentee ballots without an act of the state legislature.

Documents exclusively obtained by The Federalist through an open records request show National Vote at Home Institute CEO Amber McReynolds working with Benson to change Michigan elections policy. NVAHI shares leadership ties with the Center for Tech and Civic Life, a group that shuttled money from Zuckerberg to government election agencies ahead of the 2020 election, as The Federalist previously reported. In several instances, NVAHI and CTCL worked together to influence the 2020 election.

As part of their in-depth investigation, The Federalist has obtained emails between MI SOS Jocelyn Benson and the radical “Vote at Home,” the far-left group with whom Benson later became a board member.

President of the Public Interest Legal Foundation J. Christian Adams spoke about Michigan’s dishonest Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and how she became one of the “architects” of the Zuckerberg scheme in 2020.

“She’s actually one of the architects of Zuckerbucks,” Adams explained. “She was one of the ones who sat down with Vanita Gupta, of the uh, of one of the far-left civil rights groups and now associate attorney general number 3 at the DOJ.

“Vanita Gupta and Jocelyn Benson and others were the ones who cooked this whole thing up with Zuckerberg and his wife, he said, adding: “So, she was there in the beginning. I mean, look, they come up with devious diabolical ways to put their thumb on the scales, and she’s uh, she’s one of the architects.”

Watch:

Michigan voters have a decision to make in November. Will they re-elect a lawless and dishonest Secretary of State, or will they elect her Republican opponent Kristina Karamo, who has made fixing our broken elections that have become a cakewalk to steal for anyone smart enough to game the system?

Whether they use “COVID” as an excuse or send out over 7 million unrequested absentee ballot applications as a way to track returned mail from registered voters whose ballots can then be used to fill a deficit if needed in the 11th hour of an election, one crooked Secretary of State can change the outcome of Michigan’s election and possibly the outcome of the entire nation’s elections.

Does Michigan Have Multiple Voter Databases? And Why Were Nearly 100,000 Votes ADDED Months AFTER Michigan’s 2020 Election?

Braden Giacobazzi, Engineer and Volunteer Data Analyst, Canvasser, and Public Relations Lead for Election Integrity Force in Michigan.


100 Percent Fed Up recently met with Braden Giacobazzi of Michigan’s Election Integrity Force (EIF) to discuss damning new information taken directly from the official election files in the state of Michigan. This is all thanks to 1000’s of hours of unpaid nonpartisan work by hundreds of volunteers in the organization, run by Executive Director Sandy Kiesel and Voter Verification Director Joanne

EIF’s investigation wasn’t easy. Michigan’s political machine made obtaining all this information difficult. Thankfully, EIF jumped through all the hurdles to legally obtain it and analyze it with 100% provable chain of custody for every file! As one of EIF’s data analysts and its media relations leader, Braden shares a large portion of their findings with us in his brief summary below:

This data is taken from 5 of EIF’s 7 reports which can be found at Election Integrity Force.  The presentation provides major never-before-seen pieces of the corrupted election puzzle, which are beginning to help spark legal investigations across the state. The presentation also exposes a fundamental mechanism by which systemic, ongoing fraud is likely being committed. He also suggests where the tampering might be coming from the top.

Unfortunately, dozens of states have implemented similar systems to Michigan’s in recent years. Worse yet, EIF’s analyses prove that if you were to try to access much of this data today, it would no longer exist. That is because it appears to be manipulated routinely without leaving any apparent trail or revision history.

It is a good thing EIF had the foresight to capture so much of it already. So, who is EIF?

Election Integrity Force (EIF) is a somewhat decentralized team of hundreds of volunteer data analysts, engineers, and everyday citizens from around the state. “We have put together an amazing team. Every American should take a good look at EIF’s methods and results and replicate them around the country in time for the primaries and the general election this year. I couldn’t be more proud of the work this team has done,” says Sandy Kiesel.

We caught up with Braden Giacobazzi, a data analyst and public relations leader for EIF, while he was traveling to events around the state to educate Michiganders on these reports. “People really need to see this presentation and show it to their own election integrity organizations, candidates, and public officials. I think it really encapsulates most of what our incredible volunteer team has done for nearly 2 years now. And it does it in a brief, easily accessible, and engaging way. The truth is evident without reading through our detailed reports. But anyone can check our work in them afterward.” Mr. Giacobazzi is an engineer on the leadership team of the organization, along with Tim Vetter and Brendan Muir.

“The most important thing you can do is take this presentation and our data and work with your local officials, such as clerks and sheriffs. They are most likely to care about their own local communities’ concerns. That is what we are beginning to do with the data and analyses we have created.”

While Giacobazzi’s presentation highlights only ‘Phantom’ voters in Oakland County, according to EIF’s investigations, there are potentially hundreds of thousands of illegitimate ‘Phantom’ voters in the Michigan Qualified Voter File based on state-wide data. What’s more illuminating is that there is massive evidence suggesting systemic tampering within Michigan’s own official voting history files.

In Fact, not even Michigan’s own Gretchen Whitmer is safe from these.

Did Gretchen Whitmer’s votes count? We do not know. It turns out she paradoxically DID and DID NOT vote in the previous four elections—according to her own OFFICIAL Michigan voter files.

But that’s not all. Incredibly, 24% of all of Michigan’s legislature allegedly had its vote histories manipulated as well:

In addition, according to EIF’s reports, over 130 precincts across over 50 counties in Michigan have similarly lost or missing voting histories for the 2020 election that amount to 10s of thousands of votes. Two such precincts are highlighted in the short clip below:

What’s more, Michigan Secretary of State Candidate Kristina Karamo had 54 such scrubbed or delayed votes in her official history. And, she isn’t alone. Nearly 4 million such manipulations exist within Michigan’s official voting files:

But, perhaps the final nail in the coffin is the fact that Jocelyn Benson, Michigan’s Secretary of State, refuses to explain why the official 2020 vote tally on her website has never matched up with her own official qualified voting file. When Pat Colbeck FOIA’d the data that would be necessary to corroborate Benson’s official website tally, Benson took his deposit money and has stonewalled him for months since the election. That should worry everyone since at one point, it was at least 104,000 votes higher than her own official voting file:

According to the video above, tens of thousands of votes are being injected into the system months after the election has concluded.

What’s more, according and EIF’s 5th report, tens of thousands of votes are also being removed from the system. In total, they say, 131,997 of votes have been  removed from the voter history file, while 97,084 votes have been added months after the election as of May 2022.

How is it that these numbers and files keep changing?  When data disappear, how do they reappear?  Where does the replacement data come from? Why won’t the SOS verify her own vote tally, and why does she stonewall FOIA requests?  Why is Michigan still adding votes to the vote tally for Nov. 3, 2020, as of May 2022?  Don’t Michigan laws require the QVF to be made current no more than 7 days after the election?

Are there multiple sets of voting databases??

Regardless of all these deep questions, Jocelyn Benson claims that the 2020 election was the “most secure election in [Michigan’s] history.”

EIF disagrees.

“What makes anyone think this is secure?” According to Braden, this is a nonpartisan issue. “Is it Democrat? Is it Republican?” He pauses. “Or is it a simulation?

This is why EIF is working hard to repair Michigan’s election system. And they are seeking volunteers and donations. Michigan is at the epicenter of the nation’s election integrity fight. This is why EIF is currently reaching out to sheriffs and local law enforcement around the state. They also plan to train election poll challengers in all 83 Michigan counties, equipping them with the best knowledge available to ensure they are prepared.

‘How could this be happening?’ Tucker Carlson Warns That RINO’s Are Blowing The Midterm Elections [VIDEO]

RINO’s who have caved to Democrats on issues like gun control and who care more about Ukrainian affairs than the well-being of American citizens may blow the midterm elections for Republicans.

While Republicans have shown promise in the midterm elections, according to polls that show them ahead in the generic ballot, Democrats have been outperforming Biden’s 2020 results in special elections across the country.

The most recent example came this week when Democrat Mary Peltola bested Sarah Palin in a special election.

Republicans’ recent string of defeats come as Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) attacked Republican Senate candidates as unelectable.

Tucker Carlson explained why he believes that Republicans could blow the midterm elections.

He named some of the usual suspects, such as Senator John Cornyn (R-Tx.) and Senator Lindsey Graham (R-Sc.).

WATCH:

On Cornyn supporting gun control legislation:

“It won’t save a single child and he knows that. What it will do is take firearms away from the law-abiding while they remain in the hands of the law-breaking. It will make the country more dangerous. That’s a Republican United States senator, an incumbent who unfortunately is not up for election this year, but God willing, will be punished for what he did, but the point is, the Republican Party in Washington seems to have missed all of this.”

On Lindsey Graham supporting Ukraine’s interests over US citizens interests:

“Your job is to make fun of Lindsey Graham and to disavow Lindsey Graham. Your job is not to emulate Lindsey Graham and steal his talking points and if you do emulate Lindsey Graham and steal those talking points, you will lose and the losing candidates did just that.”

Tucker contrasted the positions of RINO politicians like Lindsey Graham and Cornyn with the success that strong conservatives and America First conservatives have had sticking such as Glenn Youngkin and Joe Kent.

With a President who has caused record-high inflation, chaos at the border, and soaring crime rates, this election is Republicans election to lose.

EPIC! Outspoken AZ Gubernatorial Candidate Kari Lake Makes Leftist Reporter Wish He Never Asked Her About Questioning The 2020 Election [VIDEO]

The outspoken former television news anchor and AZ GOP candidate for governor Kari Lake torched a leftist journalist like a flame throwing dragon at a campaign event earlier today when they asked her if she thought “Donald Trump was dividing the country?”

The reporter asked, “You said you feel like Joe Biden is dividing the country–but do you feel like Donald Trump is doing the same by falsely telling people that he won that election when he lost it?”

Kari Lake, in a very controlled manner, responded, “How does that divide the country? Questioning an election where there were obviously problems is dividing the country?” she asked. “Since when can we not ask questions about our elections?” She used her own experience as a television anchor to explain, “As a journalist for many years, I was a journalist after 2016 and I distinctly remember many people, just like you, asking a lot of questions about the 2016 election results, and nobody tried to shut you up.”

Lake cited Hillary Clinton and fellow Democrats who questioned the results of the 2016 election. The conservative gubernatorial candidate also reminded the leftist reporter about how Kamala Harris questioned the security of electronic voting machines, saying “Nobody tried to shut them up.”

“I don’t see how asking questions about an election where there were many problems is dividing a country,” Lake told the reporter. “What I do see dividing a country is shutting people down, censoring people, canceling people, trying to destroy people’s lives when they do ask questions,”she said as she pointed her finger in the direction of the media. “Last I heard, we still have the Constitution. It’s hanging by a thread—thanks to some of the work some people in this area have done. But we’re going to save that Constitution—and we’re going to bring back freedom of speech. And maybe someday you’ll thank us for that!” the tough-as-nails gubernatorial candidate told the media as she dropped her mic…

HOW MARXIST DEMOCRATS Plan To Use Illegitimate Jan 6 Committee As Front Group To Take Down President Trump’s Top Influencers and Activists Before the 2024 Election

The Democrat Party is no longer recognizable, certainly not as a pro-American party.

The evolution of the new Marxist Democrat Party that used to be a champion of the little guy began in 2008, when a previously unknown radical leftist community organizer, turned junior senator (in 2005), stunned the world and was elected as the 44th President of the United States.

Much like Joe Biden, Barack Obama’s bid to become the next President of the United States began in the basement. Unlike Biden, who campaigned from his own basement, Barack Obama’s rise to the top of the Democrat Party began in the unrepentant domestic terrorist Bill Ayers’s basement.

The slick, black community organizer who spent his younger years attending private schools and later attended top-ranked colleges was raised by a white mother and white grandparents, but he was heavily influenced by an absent father who lived in Africa and despised America. While campaigning in 2007, Michelle Obama, the race-obsessed wife of Barack Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, explained that “For the first time” in her “adult life,” she was “proud to be an American,” because her husband, who promised to “fundamentally transform” America, was running for President.

In the same year that Barack Obama was (allegedly) born in Hawaii, the Democrat Party sent an alternate set of electors to Washington, DC.

Today, the new Marxist Democrat Party is attempting to prove Republicans who sent an alternate set of electors to DC in 2020 over serious concerns about the integrity of the general election are guilty of a crime and must be publicly flogged, tarred, and feathered.

In 1960, after becoming a new state, Hawaii held its first presidential election. John F. Kennedy, who was running against then-VP Richard Nixon, won the popular vote by 117K votes or less than 1 percent, but like President Trump in 2016, Kennedy had a huge lead in the Electoral College.

In Hawaii, where over 93% of voters turned out for the state’s first election, Nixon was declared the winner by a mere 141 votes. Unlike in the hotly contested election of 2020, where judges across America refused to allow forensic audits of the vote before Congress convened to certify the election in early January, a judge in Hawaii granted Democrats a recount. Meanwhile, Democrats hoping the recount would go in their favor, cast an alternate set of electors and sent them to D.C. to be counted.

Although the results didn’t change the outcome of the election, the recount in Hawaii proved President Kennedy was the state’s winner by 115 votes. Congress had two sets of certifications from the Republican and Democrat Parties, and the decision lay with the presiding officer of the US Senate, VP Nixon, as to which set of electoral votes to certify.

A newly sworn-in governor certified the Kennedy victory and transmitted a new slate of Electoral College certificates — signed by the same three Democrats who falsely claimed to have won two weeks earlier.

When Nixon, like Mike Pence, presided over the Electoral College counting session on Jan. 6, 1961, he acknowledged receiving all three sets of certificates: the GOP slate, the uncertified Democratic slate, and the certified Democratic slate.

Democrat and RINO members of the illegitimate Jan. 6 Committee have conveniently forgotten about the alternate set of electors cast for Kennedy that allowed his competitor, Richard Nixon, to make the correct choice and ignore the Republican electoral votes and choose the Democrat electoral votes instead, following a recount of the ballots which changed the election results and gave the victory to Democrats.

By making an example of alternate electors who cast their electoral votes for President Donald J. Trump before Congress certified the election results on Jan. 6, 2021, the now-unrecognizable Democrat Party leaders hope to demonize and mischaracterize some of Trump’s most hard-working and notable leaders in critical swing states as “criminals.” The goal is to dehumanize them—to make their neighbors, friends, family, and co-workers question their character and integrity and to cause the electors to question if their support for President Trump is really worth the assassination of their character.

In Michigan, Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer ordered MI State Police to refuse entry to MI GOP electors into the State Capitol, where they attempted to cast their alternate set of electoral votes for President Trump. Hundreds of MI poll challengers filed affidavits attesting to multiple irregularities with the tabulation of votes and outright voter fraud they witnessed on Election Day and the day after. Their pleas fell on deaf ears, as the MI courts refused to hear their cases and MI lawmakers whose re-election campaigns rely on funding from the Trump-hating former Sec. of Education Betsy DeVos. As a result, lawmakers ignored over 7.5 thousand Michigan residents who signed affidavits calling for a forensic audit.

These brave electors simply wanted to cast alternate electoral votes so they would be in place in the event that a fair and comprehensive forensic audit proved the 2020 election in Michigan was stolen. Imagine a scenario where it was discovered that the election was stolen in Michigan through, say, ballot harvesting (as revealed in the 2000 Mules movie)—what recourse would citizens have if the vote was already certified for Joe Biden and no alternate set of electors was cast for the legitimate winner of the election?

Why is the illegitimate Jan 6 Committee so hell-bent on going after GOP electors in swing states who cast alternate votes for Trump in 2020?

If all goes according to plan, Democrats and Never-Trump RINOs on the illegitimate Jan 6 Committee will effectively be able to skirt the law and use the power that was never given to them to threaten, intimate, and humiliate Trump’s top supporters, organizers, and leaders, including the electors who cast their alternate set of electoral votes for Trump before the certification of the election on January 6, 2021. The hope is that the lawless, bare-knuckles approach to dealing with Trump’s top supporters in key states will cause them to think twice before supporting Trump again, should he decide to run in 2024. The goal, of course, is to weaken President Trump by removing his most ardent base of supporters while simultaneously attempting to falsely paint him as a “criminal” to the rest of America, thereby ensuring diminished support from the general public should he decide to run for re-election in 2024.

Today, the new target of the Marxist Democrat Party and their allies in the media is (once again) Ginni Thomas, one of the smartest and most well-respected conservatives in the DC Beltway and beyond. The bogus and highly partisan J6 committee has successfully managed to gain access to her communications, and once a month, they drop some new tidbits to keep her name in the news. The hope is that she will run for cover to save her husband, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, from embarrassment over her political activism. They don’t know Ginni Thomas.

Rex Chapman, a Democrat activist with 1.2 million followers on Twitter, nails the objective of his party with this one tweet:

Arrest Ginni Thomas. Impeach Clarence Thomas. End.

This tweet by Democrat activist Jon Cooper, who has 1 million followers, where he quotes the disgraced former CBS News anchor Dan Rather, confirms how the rabid, leftist swarm of locusts must never relent until their prey is tortured, humiliated, and eventually stripped of any relevance in the world of Republican politics: “the Ginni Thomas story should NEVER become old news.”

What they’re really saying is that Ginni Thomas isn’t entitled to the same First Amendment Rights as the rest of America because she’s married to a Supreme Court Justice. This is simply another example of how the anti-American Democrat Party, which used to be a champion of free speech, has evolved into a party that is no longer recognizable and certainly no longer respects the US Constitution or the rule of law.

It’s unfathomable to this group of DC thugs who sit on the phony Jan 6 Committee that Ginni Thomas would communicate with lawmaker friends in states where election results were being challenged. It’s incomprehensible that a highly educated lawyer who could sit back and go to luncheons and cocktail parties with the DC Swamp members would instead choose to fight for her country and,  worst of all—support President Trump. Should Trump decide to run again, they must shut her down before she can cast her wide net of influence on conservative leaders across America in 2024.

It certainly would be fascinating to see the names on the illegitimate Jan 6 Committee’s “hit list.” How many of their target’s lives have already been destroyed by this group of lawless hyenas? How many on the list have refused to cave? And how many more names will they subpoena in their never-ending quest to destroy the man who loves his country even more than the Marxist Democrats hate it?

Pray for our nation. Pray for the brave Americans who are under attack by an illegitimate group of lawmakers motivated by hate and bolstered by the hope that they are making progress to destroy Trump’s inner and outer circle of influence by using a fake insurrection as a premise of their investigation.

If you’re not involved in helping a pro-Trump or America First candidate win in 2022 by volunteering or donating to their campaign, you have given up your right to complain when America becomes Venezuela.

Please contact the office of an America First candidate in your state and ask what you can do to help. If you don’t have an America-First candidate in your state, look outside of your state. Sign up to be a poll challenger or poll judge, or sign up to be a paid election worker. Every person in America must stand up now—because every day, it becomes more apparent that the America we love is slipping away.

BOOM! AZ Supreme Court Strikes Down Democrat Sponsored Ballot Initiative To Make Cheating In Elections Easier

Arizona election integrity is once again in the national spotlight. This time, the swing state that’s been in the spotlight since the 2020 election is back in the news after the AZ Supreme Court ruled against a Democrat-led initiative to make cheating in the state’s elections even easier.

On Friday, the AZ Supreme Court struck down a ballot initiative pushed by Democrats that, if approved by AZ voters, would have reversed laws protecting the integrity of the state’s elections that was passed by AZ State lawmakers.

The Federalist reports – Among the proposed changes to Arizona election law were same-day voter registration, a repealing of “Arizona’s ballot harvesting ban,” and “voter registration with minimal identification, such as a pay stub.” Other provisions in the initiative would have disqualified “electors who don’t choose the president selected by Arizona’s presidential election,” eliminated “the 30-day residency requirement in order to vote,” and made it “harder to cancel voter registrations of inactive voters,” among others.

In 2021, the Arizona legislature passed a law that “requires the state to remove infrequent voters from the state’s Permanent Early Voting List, turning it into an ‘active’ early voting list.” GOP Gov. Doug Ducey also signed a bill earlier this year mandating that voters show proof of citizenship in order to vote in federal elections.

The latter has since been the subject of a lawsuit filed against Arizona by the Biden Department of Justice, which referred to the law as an “unnecessary requirement” that “turns the clock back on progress” and “block[s] eligible voters from the registration rolls for certain federal elections.”

In September 2021, America waited breathlessly for Arizona’s forensic audit to be completed by independent auditors, but when the results of the audit were released, they were twisted by the media and Democrat lawmakers to make it appear as though there was absolutely no fraud.

In a statement after the results of the AZ forensic audit report was released, President Trump set the record straight about their findings:

“The Fake News is lying about the Arizona audit report!”

Gateway Pundit Bullet Points on Arizona Audit:

  • Canvass showed over 3,400 more ballots were cast than recorded
  •  Over 9,000 more mail-in ballots were received and recorded than the official number of mail-in ballots sent out by the county
  • Precincts show more ballots cast on election day than people who showed up to vote. 1,551 extra votes.
  • Approximately 2,500 ballots were shown in the early vote returns that do not have a voter listed as casting them.
  •  Over 255,000 early votes shown in the county final vote file that does not have a corresponding entry in the early voting returns file
  • Over 23,000 voted by mail after moving after the October 5th cutoff
  • 2,382 voters cast votes in Maricopa county, in person, after moving out of the county
  • Over 2,000 voters who moved out of Arizona during the 29 days before the election were given a full ballot instead of a presidential-only ballot.
  • Close to 300 deceased voters potentially vote.
  • There is an unprecedented number of discrepancies in the vote total. This could only happen through malicious actions or severe incompetence from Maricopa county officials.
  • Too many discrepancies to declare an outright winner of Arizona’s electoral votes.

Ben Cotton (pictured below) shared the IT results from the audit of the 2020 Election Results in Maricopa County, Arizona.

During Cotton’s presentation, he said files were deleted by those involved in the election.

But the key is that Cotton’s audit team was able to identify the time stamps for when the files were messed with, and from that, he said, “We have captured screenshots of Maricopa County people at the keyboards during those time periods.”

After 2.5 Years of Bullying, Segregating and Dehumanizing Americans, CDC Makes Damning Admission...Just In Time To Take Pressure Off Tyrannical Dems Before Mid-Term Elections

The CDC tacitly admits that their tactics and tyranny were all for nothing as they try to ease pressure on Democrats this midterm election

The authoritarian, tyrannical Democrats who have used the CDC as a beat-stick to steal freedoms and punish Americans underestimated the push-back they would receive all along. Americans are freedom-loving, and many of us refused to let our freedoms be stolen and suppressed by the Center for Disease Control and other radical-left, Democrat institutions.

Propaganda meant to insinuate that following the tyrannical CDC guidelines was patriotism REUTERS/Elizabeth Frantz

As an inevitable result of this, the CDC has finally been forced into submission–practically admitting that they were wrong to enforce such draconian and discriminatory rules, bypassing legislation entirely.

On August 11th, 2022, the CDC set new guidelines which ceased to discriminate between the vaccinated and unvaccinated. The new guidelines focus on a concept that the CDC has seemingly just discovered for the first time since COVID-19 started–personal responsibility.

Something which they should have emphasized since the very onset of the global pandemic.

The new guidelines include a complete reversal of discriminatory policies against unvaccinated Americans, as well as a reversal of testing, isolation, and contact tracing rules.

Testing, for instance, is now reserved for only those with symptoms or who have a known/suspected exposure to someone diagnosed with COVID-19. Isolation, for those who are symptomatic and have tested positive. Additionally, after as little as five days, if one is feeling better, they can cease isolating. Contact tracing is also now restricted to healthcare and “high risk congregate settings.”

The emphasis throughout the new guidelines is that one is free to continue masking and social distancing if they believe it is the right choice for them, but that avoiding the unvaccinated, excessive isolation, and mandatory masking are things of the past. Finally.

Now, was this a well-intended admission? Likely, it was due to the pressure by everyday American patriots and the Democrat-controlled CDC’s desire to lessen pressure on their elected officials during the midterms which led to this. The CDC is hoping that by doing this, it will not motivate people to go to the polls and vote out the authoritarian Democrats in November.

JUST IN: GOP Lawmakers Want To Question Mark Zuckerberg For “Election Interference” After He Publicly Admitted Facebook Suppressed Content About Hunter Biden’s Laptop

In a new interview between Joe Rogan and Mark Zuckerberg (read initial story here), the Facebook CEO admitted that they hid content on his social media platform concerning the discovery of the damning contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop for 10 days in the run-up to the 2020 November election. Now, Facebook is being met with considerable backlash over the newly admitted censorship.

At the alleged request of the FBI, Zuckerberg explained that the social media platform “shadow-banned,” or hid, the content from users.

GOP political leaders have now begun to voice their outrage with both the FBI and Facebook, accusing them of censoring information right before the election that should have been public knowledge. The GOP is now vowing to investigate both Zuckerberg and the FBI should they retake the House majority in the midterms.

Rep. Andrew Cylde bashed the parties involved in this major act of censorship, accusing them of election interference. He tweeted,

“This isn’t just insane, it’s election interference. The Oversight Committee must immediately invite Mark Zuckerberg to testify – under oath – about the FBI’s attempts to circumvent the First Amendment. The American people deserve answers and accountability.”

GOP House leader Kevin McCarthy also bashed the FBI and Big Tech on Twitter, saying,

“The FBI colluded with Big Tech to silence news stories weeks before the 2020 election in an attempt to control your access to information. Democrats in Congress have been intentionally ignoring the facts. When Republicans are back in charge, we will hold all of them accountable.”

Senator Ted Cruz joined in to express his frustration with Zuckerberg’s admission, calling it “complete corruption, plain and simple.”

Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson also took to Twitter to call for an investigation into this incident, saying, “The more we learn, the more questions arise. We need whistleblowers to come forward to expose the truth, hold people accountable and restore integrity and credibility to the FBI and federal agencies. We need to get to the bottom of this corruption.”

Senators Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson are both demanding that they be able to question the FBI agents who suggested the negative stories coming out about Hunter Biden were “Russian disinformation.”

In a letter sent to the FBI on Thursday, the senators insist that this censorship was “unnecessary and was only done because of pressure from our Democratic colleagues, including Democratic leadership to falsely attack our Biden investigation as advancing Russian disinformation.”

“Simply put, the unnecessary FBI briefing provided the Democrats and liberal media the vehicle to spread their false narrative that our work advanced Russian disinformation,” they added.

BREAKING: The FBI FORBADE Agents From Looking In To Hunter Biden’s Laptop Until After 2020 Election, Whistleblower Claims

Many people wondered aloud why the FBI waited until nearly two years after the Hunter Biden laptop scandal broke to start seriously investigating it.

During the 2020 Presidential election, the FBI and many senior intelligence officials claimed that the contents on Hunter Biden’s laptop were ‘Russian disinformation’.

The media followed along, refusing to cover the story, while social media giants censored people who attempted to discuss it.

Now, a whistleblower within the FBI has revealed that their decision to not investigate Hunter Biden’s laptop was blatantly partisan.

They did not want to harm Joe Biden’s chances in the 2020 Presidential election.

The FBI had no problem investigating Trump during the 2016 election for bogus Russia ties.

Senator Ron Johnson (R-Wi.) announced the whistleblower’s claims, saying that the FBI ‘cannot be trusted’ to investigate the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop.

Breitbart Reports–

The leadership of the FBI forbade agents from investigating Hunter Biden’s laptop until after the 2020 election was decided, according to whistleblowers that came forward to Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI).

The FBI postponed investigating Hunter’s laptop because the agency was “not going to change the outcome of the election again,” the senator revealed whistleblowers’ statement on Wednesday in a letter written to Justice Department (DOJ) Inspector General Michael Horowitz.

According to the letter, the whistleblowers said the FBI did not want to investigate the laptop because it was afraid public disclosure would alter the outcome of the 2020 election:

After the FBI obtained the Hunter Biden laptop from the Wilmington, DE computer shop, these whistleblowers stated that local FBI leadership told employees, “you will not look at that Hunter Biden laptop” and that the FBI is “not going to change the outcome of the election again.” Further, these whistleblowers allege that the FBI did not begin to examine the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop until after the 2020 presidential election—potentially a year after the FBI obtained the laptop in December 2019.

LOL! Only One Day After Never-Trump Liz Cheney Is Clobbered In Primary Election, Mike Pence Says He’d Testify In Front of Jan 6 Witch Hunt Committee… Tells Republicans To Stop Criticizing FBI

On Wednesday, Former Vice President Mike Pence confirmed that he would “consider” testifying before the House January 6 Committee, just hours after Jan 6 Committee vice chair Rep Liz Cheney (R., Wyo.) lost her primary in Wyoming after voting to impeach Trump.

At a “Politics & Eggs” event in New Hampshire, Pence made an appearance and spoke about the FBI raid of Mar-a-Lago. Pence defended the FBI and admonished fellow Republicans who have criticized law enforcement in the wake of the unprecedented FBI actions.

“Our party stands with the men and women who stand on the thin blue line at the federal and state and local level, and these attacks on the FBI must stop,” said Pence.

“Calls to defund the FBI are just as wrong as calls to defund the police,” he added.

Pence was also asked about appearing before the Jan 6 Committee and, if called upon, if he’d be “agreeable.” He responded, “If there was an invitation to participate, I would consider it.”

“But you’ve heard me mention the Constitution a few times this morning. In the Constitution, there are three co-equal branches of government, and any invitation that would be directed to me I’d have to reflect on the unique role I served as vice president,” added Pence.

“Any formal invitation rendered to us, we’d give it due consideration. But my first obligation is to continue to uphold my oath, continue to uphold this framework of government enshrined in the Constitution, this created the greatest nation in the history of the world.”

Pence, perhaps learning from Cheney’s mistakes, said as little about President Trump as possible in his response.

In the past, Pence has accused the Democrats of using the Jan 6 panel to “distract attention from their failed agenda.”

Dirty Clinton Lawyer Mark Elias Brags About New “USPS Division Set Up To Handle Election Mail”....As Detroit Video Footage Reveals Concerning Ballot Drops By Postal Workers [VIDEO]

According to the United States Postal Service, it delivered more than 135 million ballots during the 2020 election and 40 million during primaries, making it the perfect entity to target for those looking to harm the integrity of elections.
Democrats have not been shy about pushing for mail-in-ballots. Hillary Clinton attorney Marc Elias has been a prominent supporter of removing election safeguards like showing ID and has openly mocked citizens concerned with election integrity on Twitter. He happily shared that USPS created a new division so they could deliver ballots in advance of the midterms.

https://twitter.com/marceelias/status/1553062781016064002?s=20&t=MccpeLVL5WYqsEKQ3bwfaA

As Democrats push for mail-in-voting and removing election laws, Gateway Pundit reported that most European countries found that mail-in-ballots were more likely to be compromised.  Finding the safeguards of in-person voting were removed and subsequently  have moved away from utilizing mail-in-ballots.

Someone other than the actual voter voting, ballot traffickers who assist voters in filling in their ballot and authenticating identity are issues that come with mail-in-ballots.

The Gateway Pundit and 100% Fed Up, with the help of the investigative team at Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity, have released video footage of individuals filling drop boxes with ballots along with videos of individuals who appear to be signing envelopes of other’s ballots.

The Gateway Pundit posted, “In the video below, a man dressed in street clothes exits the front passenger seat of a postal worker’s truck and stuffs a stack of ballots into the absentee ballot drop box in Detroit. In a second video taken on the same day, the same man exits the passenger side of the USPS truck and delivers an even larger stack of ballots into the slot of the drop box. In this video, you can clearly see he is recording the drop on his cell phone in his left hand.”

 

Ironically Elias tweeted a video of Steve Bannon warning he and Biden that justice is coming and that there will be open hearings for stealing the 2020 election and “all of it” will come out as 2/3 of the voters are against the Democrats.

LA County Rejected Less Than 1% of Mail-in Ballots In 2020 Election, But Now Claims 30% of Signatures on Recall Petition for Dirty Soros CA Prosecutor Are Invalid… Sound Familiar?

Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón has been the subject of public outrage recently for easing penalties on all crimes, including violent ones such as multiple homicides and sexual assault. A second attempt to recall him failed on Monday after officials ruled that nearly 30% of the signatures were found to be “invalid.”

Garcón was elected in 2020 and ran on the platform of criminal justice “reform,” gaining support from the Black Lives Matter movement and left-wing billionaire donor George Soros. In his time serving as DA, crime has surged – a trend that many people blame on his lax policies.

LA County DA George Gascón

The most recent recall effort seemed to be successful, gathering 715,833 signatures, a number that far exceeded the necessary 566,857 to represent 10% of registered voters in the country.

However, after a review of the petition, the county registrar released a statement saying, “520,050 signatures were found to be valid and 195,785 were found to be invalid. To qualify for the [November 2022] ballot, the petition required 566,857 signatures; therefore, the petition has failed to meet the sufficiency requirements and no further action shall be taken on the petition.”

In a breakdown of the invalid signatures, it is revealed that the petition – which fell short by 46,807 signatures – would have passed if the signatures were not rejected for the following categories: Different address (32,187), Mismatch Signature (9,490), and “Other” reasons (9,331).

Somehow, the LA County officials found nearly 30% of signatures on petitions to recall the highly unpopular district attorney, but during the 2020 election, the county rejected less than 1% of the mail-in ballots.

In the 2020 election, Michigan similarly failed to reject mail-in ballots after Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson instructed city clerks to ignore the signature matching law, telling them to presume the accuracy of absentee ballot signatures.

Why, then, do these petition signatures fall under so much scrutiny, but the validity of ballots for elections is nothing but an afterthought? When did it become okay for officials to pick and choose when to follow proper procedures?

Bipartisan Election Fraud – It’s Time to Put a Stop to All of It!!

Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity is a group of grassroots, patriotic citizens concerned about election dishonesty, fraud, and illegality regardless of whether it involves the blues or the reds in the political realm.

It needs to be called out and exposed. Here is a review of some bipartisan misconduct and illegal behavior.

Michigan: Democrat
Democrat Kwame Kilpatrick, known as the “hip-hop” mayor was the youngest person ever elected to this office in the 2001 mayoral election in Detroit, at the age of 31. He ran for re-election in 2005 against Democrat Freeman Hendrix who was endorsed by the major news organizations in Detroit. Kilpatrick had been embroiled in various scandals including raiding the city coffers. Hendrix was the favorite to win until “surprise” results late on election night supposedly turned the election to Kilpatrick. (Does late night absentee ballot dumps sound familiar?) In fact, Hendrix beat Kilpatrick in the primary election by a comfortable margin- however, he lost in the general election.
Detroit was not well served with Kilpatrick as its mayor thereafter with more corruption such as racketeering, mail fraud and bribery- 24 felonies in total! He was sentenced to 28 yrs. in prison, but his sentence was commuted by President Trump (on Trump’s final night in the White House), after he served for only 7 years.

Michigan: Republican
Paul Manni, a Sterling Heights, Michigan Republican candidate for City Council was recently charged with forging signatures on multiple absentee ballot applications in the Nov 2021 election.

Michigan: Democrat
Southfield Clerk, Democrat Sherikia Hawkins, faces six felony charges related to forging or falsifying election records in the Nov 2018 election. Specifically, she was charged with tossing out absentee ballots after they had arrived at the clerk’s office and were logged into the computer system. She justified this by claiming the ballot envelopes were not properly signed by voters when the real purpose was to hide discrepancies in the number of absentee ballots cast compared to the number counted.

Michigan: Democrat
Kathy Funk ran as a Democrat for township clerk in Flint, Michigan in the election of 2020. She was accused of purposely breaking a seal on a container for ballots so that the votes could not be totaled during an anticipated recount. She won re-election with a slim margin in the unofficial count. She was charged with ballot tampering and misconduct in office.

Pennsylvania: Democrat
In 2021, Democrat Marie Beren, a top election official in Philadelphia, was charged with multiple counts of voter fraud and conspiracy. Beren served as a “judge of elections” which essentially is the head of a polling place. She engaged in multiple illegal activities such as casting votes herself in other people’s names, advising in-person voters to support a certain candidate and encouraging voters to cast additional votes from family members who were not present. She and other workers would also add names to the poll books of people who never even came into the polling place in order to falsely match the number of fake votes cast. She and other workers engaged in this activity from 2015-2019. Prosecutors noted that fraud occurred “at every level of government, from municipal to state to federal.”

North Carolina: Republican
North Carolina was no stranger to election tampering. L.McCrae Dowless Jr. was convicted of voter fraud in 2016 and 2018, sentenced to prison and fined. In the 2018 primary election, he and his political operatives collected ballots from voters which were kept at his home. They would fill in votes on parts or all of some ballots to favor certain Republican candidates, specifically Republican Mark Harris who was running for North Carolina’s 9th congressional district. They also forged some witness signatures following Dowless’s directions to utilize steps to avoid detection. This included controlling the color of the pens used for the witness signatures, signing a different person’s name as a witness to avoid having the same person as witness to too many ballots and making sure to deliver no more than nine ballots in each visit to the post office. They also made sure they used post offices near where the voters lived. Mark Harris won the initial election but when this ballot fraud was uncovered a new election was called. Harris did not run again. He was not charged with election fraud.

Virginia: Democrat
In Virginia, Fairfax County Democrat election officials issued ballots for voters who failed to comply with the state’s legal requirement that they include the final four digits of their Social Security numbers on their applications for a mail-in or absentee ballot. This was a clear violation of election law. The state court refused to proscribe the Fairfax County officials, with the conclusion that the nonprofit Virginia Institute for Public Policy lacked “standing”, or the right to sue, over the violation. Glenn Youngkin, Republican, won the governor’s race in 2021, and so this issue may seem moot. But it shouldn’t be. Illegalities should be exposed and called out regardless of if the ensuing consequences are small or large.

New Jersey: Democrat
In 2020, four Democrats were charged and arrested for a mail-in ballot election fraud scheme in New Jersey. Two of them were Paterson City Council members. Charges included unauthorized possession of ballots, tampering with and falsifying public records, as well as false registrations.

Florida: Republican
In Florida, Republican canvassers changed the party registration of more than 100 voters without their consent in 2021. These were voters from low-income housing projects throughout Miami.

Connecticut: Democrat
In 2017, Michael DeFilippo, a Democrat and landlord, stole voter registrations and absentee ballots from college students in his building and forged their signatures in order to vote for himself for a city council seat. He was indicted for election fraud and faces up to 85 years in prison.

Maryland: Republican
In Maryland, in 2011, Paul Schurick, was the campaign manager for the Republican gubernatorial candidate, Robert L. Ehrlich, who ultimately lost in the general election. But Schurick was convicted of authorizing robocalls
on Election Day that used false information to discourage 112,000 registered Democrats in largely black Baltimore and in Prince George County from voting in 2010.

Missouri: Democrat
In 2016, Penny Hubbard ran as a Democrat in a primary race in Missouri’s 78th House District. She won by only 90 votes. This was contested by Bruce Franks Jr, her opponent. Upon investigation, it was found that Hubbard won due to a lopsided absentee vote count which heavily favored her. A judge ruled that enough illegitimate absentee votes had been cast to affect the outcome. A new election was held, and Franks easily beat Hubbard by a margin of 1,500 votes.

In his book, “Dirty Little Secrets”, political analyst Larry Sabato noted that Republican election fraud is less common than Democrat fraud. The reason? Republican voters tend to be middle class and not easily induced to commit fraud while “the pool of people who appear to be available and more vulnerable to an invitation to participate in vote fraud tend to lean Democratic.” In addition, Paul Herrison, director of the Center for American Politics at the University of Maryland, stated that “most incidents of wide-scale voter fraud reportedly occur in inner cities, which are largely populated by minority groups.”

Election experts, Hans von Spakovsky and John Fund in their book, “Who’s Counting?” stated that “Democrats are far more skilled at encouraging poor people- who need money- to participate in vote-buying schemes. “I had no choice. I was hungry that day,” Thomas Felder told the Miami Herald, in explaining why he illegally voted in a mayoral election. “You wanted the money; you were told who to vote for.” And sometimes, it’s not just food that vote stealers are hungry for.

A former Democratic congressman told one of these authors, “When many Republicans lose an election, they go back into what they call the private sector. When many Democrats lose an election, they lose power and money. They need to eat, and people will do an awful lot in order to eat.”

Abraham Lincoln once wisely said: “Elections belong to the people. It’s their decision. If they decide to turn their back on the fire and burn their behinds, then they will just have to sit on their blisters.”

It’s time to call a halt to election fraud regardless of who does it or where it occurs. But make no mistake about. Most election fraud is committed by Democrats.

To conclude otherwise would indeed be a “fraud-ian slip” Especially after the election to end all elections in terms of fraud- the November 2020 election!

CLEAN UP ON AISLE #3! Leftist “Fact-Checker” Gets OWNED By Brilliant MI Doctor On Detroit Election Fraud

Dr. Becky Behrends, one of Michigan’s finest patriots, brilliantly fact-checks Clara Hendrickson, a leftist Detroit Free Press “fact-checker” who earns a living by discrediting individuals or groups that challenge her team’s integrity.

And now, it’s time to fact-check the “so-called” fact checkers, specifically Clara Hendrickson of the Detroit Free Press…

Hendrickson published a piece in the Detroit Free Press on July 27, 2022, entitled, “Detroit prepares for the first statewide election after the city found itself in 2020 spotlight”. In this piece, she specifically mentioned me (Becky Behrends) as belonging to the Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity or MC4EI group, which has “spread misinformation about the 2020 election.”

Let’s address the misinformation that Hendrickson and the Detroit Free Press are spreading.

As Paul Harvey used to say: “Here’s the rest of the story.”

She related the story of Edith Lee-Payne, an election worker in the 2020 election, who claimed she had to grab a letter opener when a Republican observer demanded that she stop the count. She claimed the observer was “just belligerent,” and she was unsure if he was armed. She was thankful that she didn’t need to use the letter opener.

A GOP affiant, Janice Hermann, disagrees with this interpretation. She stated (p. 47) in an affidavit: “I saw a woman wield a letter opener as a weapon to make sure an observer was not close enough to see what she was doing as she duplicated ballots. Herman claims she has several other witnesses who observed this.

”When the GOP challengers were being ignored in their challenges to illegal and fraudulent election inspector behavior and the refusal of election supervisors to record their challenges in log books, what were they supposed to do? If they raised their voices to get attention (heaven forbid, such aggressiveness!), they were judged as being belligerent and a threat. Who wielded a potential weapon? Not the Republican, but the presumed Democrat election inspector worker! Let’s be clear about that!! Detroit election officials later claimed the GOP challengers were “sour grapes” after their guy Trump lost because they filed no challenges during the election! A clever bit of deception that mainstream media swallowed hook, line, and sinker.

As Ben Franklin once said, “Tricks and treachery are the practice of fools that don’t have brains enough, to be honest.”

If Hendrickson were a legitimate investigative journalist, she would have presented both sides of the story and let the public draw their own conclusions. As Becket Adams of the National Journalism Center once said in an LA Times article:

“News journalists need to focus on providing audiences with just the facts, rather than nudging them in the direction of a preferred viewpoint. This means reporting fairly and impartially on both sides of a debate and respecting audiences enough to interpret and analyze the information for themselves. They’re not children. If newsrooms want to speak out forcefully on certain issues, they always have the opinion section.”

Hendrickson claimed that a flood of challengers descended on the counting room in 2020 in Detroit who “mistook standard processes for fraud while others outside the room banged on the windows.” This is truly laughable if it wasn’t such a serious matter that the press can be so biased and dangerous in the misleading information they peddle out to the public as “facts.”

There was nothing “standard” about such practices as:

    1. Adjudicating ballots rejected by the tabulators without a Republican present using inflated numbers to exclude credentialed Republican challengers
    2. Refusing re-entry to GOP challengers trying to return from lunch breaks while allowing Democrats to have lunch and meetings inside or adjoining the counting board room.
    3. Accepting ballots by the thousands that did not appear in the electronic poll books or supplemental lists
    4. Allowing a late-night ballot drop many hours after the close of polls (Oakland County, the second largest in Michigan, finished at their counting boards around 9 pm. What is the excuse for Wayne County?)
    5. Failing to prevent tabulator operators from re-running ballot batches without zeroing out the count, failing to provide challengers with meaningful access to view the computer screens of the election inspectors, thus refusing to comply with a court ruling that stipulated this.
    6. Failing to provide challengers with meaningful access to view the computer screens of the election inspectors, thus refusing to comply with a court ruling that stipulated this.
    7. Using inflated numbers to exclude credentialed Republican challengers.

These are just a few of the non-standard, fraudulent, illegal, and illegitimate behaviors that occurred at the TCF center in the Detroit 2020 General Election. Many more examples could be given.

And banging on the windows? As GOP challengers were worn down by attrition, thrown out and dismissed, and pizza boxes taped up on windows, common sense would tell you this was no way to inspire the confidence or trust of the Republicans, let alone the public. Their indignation and anger was totally justified.

Hendrickson presented just one side of the events at the TCF center in her portrayal of the hard-working election inspectors having been so abused, threatened, and intimidated by the GOP challengers when in fact, it was the GOP poll challengers who were being intimidated and threatened. These challengers filed over 200 affidavits attesting that the abuse came from the Democrats and was so blatant as to be unbelievable to many Republicans who had not previously been exposed to such treatment. Classic gaslighting manipulation technique- accuse others of behaviors which they themselves are engaging in.

As for the so-called “fake certificate of electors” that existed to potentially award the states’ Electoral College votes to Trump, this is again another bogus Democrat talking point to go after any pro-Trump supporters. It is their way of saying, “don’t even think of trying this again, or we will go after you with our weaponized law enforcement and intelligence agencies.” Right out of a Chinese communist playbook on how to silence your opposition. Choosing an alternate slate of electors is not unknown and was never considered “fraud” in the past. Just check out what happened in Hawaii in the 1960 Nixon vs. Kennedy presidential election.

This free press reporter also stated, “The process is prescribed and methodical. There are multiple eyes watching ballots at every step. It’s a system that both undercuts 2020 fraud claims, but also prevents any meddling officials say they’ve prepared to confront this year.” Watching ballots at every step??? Except for the Republican challengers, who were often barred from watching and observing. And except for the total lack of bipartisan involvement and a chain of custody in the transferring of ballots to the TCF center for counting. But the Democrats couldn’t be bothered with these “minor details.”

As for the lawsuits claiming a stolen election that “failed in court,” this is an attempt to convince the public that the Trump position must, therefore, be bogus and totally without merit. Not surprising that these lawsuits didn’t get their day in court. In fact, most of them never received an “evidentiary hearing.” What else would we expect when liberal judges dominate the judiciary at all levels? For example, if one looks at the federal circuit court system, one concludes that Democrat judges function as reliable liberals, but Republican judges do not always equal reliable conservatives. Over time, a certain percentage of these Republican judges drift to the left. So, grass root conservatives cannot depend on a judge having an R next to his name as one who will uphold the rule of law instead of their own ideological bent.

And so it goes. Ms. Hendrickson is the town crier merely parroting the term “election denier” to those who question the 2020 election.

George Orwell had it right when he said:

“(True) Journalism is printing what someone else does not want printed: everything else is public relations.”

It appears that parrots and lemmings are back in full force, marching to the beat of the legacy media. Remember the
definition of legacy media? Supposedly, it is old or traditional media news outlets that believe they are the final word on any topic. They are centralized media institutions. Old and outdated and controlled by liberals and leftists for the purpose of “public relations,” which is code for indoctrinating the public to their points of view.

And for anyone who opposes, again, Orwell had a comment on this: “Truth, it’s the new hate speech. During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.”

Don’t expect truth from the Detroit Free Press or its tax-payer subsidized minions who purport to be honest reporters and journalists.

BREAKING: Project Veritas Reveals How RINO Senator Murkowski Conspired To Rig Alaska Elections Against America First Opponent [VIDEO]

RINO Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-Al.) was one of the few Republican Senators who voted to convict President Trump in the wake of the January 6th ‘Stop the Steal’ rally.

She openly called on him to resign two days after the rally.

During Trump’s presidency, she was one of the Senators who consistently prevented core elements of President Trump’s America First agenda from being implemented.

Murkowski was one of fifteen Republicans to vote for the gun control bill that passed the Senate in June.

Murkowski also supported the confirmation of left-wing Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Now, a Project Veritas video has revealed that she quietly supported ranked-choice voting in Alaska because it would prevent her America First, Trump-backed opponent, Kelly Tshibaka, from winning.

Her Campaign Coordinator said that people who voted for her Democratic opponent, Pat Chesbro, would rank her 2nd, boosting her over her Trump-backed Republican opponent.

The Post Millenial Reports–

“In a new video published by Project Veritas, it has been revealed that the push to bring in ranked choice voting to the state of Alaska was due in part to getting moderate Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski re-elected in the upcoming midterm election.

“They say the race is gonna come down to Kelly Tshibaka and Senator Murkowski,” said Emma Ashlock, Murkowski Campaign Coordinator. “So, anyone who votes for Pat Chesbro first and ranks Senator Murkowski second that vote is gonna become a vote for Senator Murkowski.”

“While we were working on Ballot Measure 2 and voting for Ballot Measure 2, we had Senator Murkowski in mind the whole time,” said Ashlock.
When asked if Murkowski sponsored Ballot Measure 2, which was approved by voters in 2020, Josiah Nash, Murkowski Campaign Interior Coordinator, said “she stayed quiet and honestly it was probably best she stayed quiet on that.”

Nash noted that publicly she was quiet, but she supported the measure in private.”

TRUMP: “If I said that a corrupt election ‘was wonderful’—the persecution would stop immediately!” [VIDEO]

This afternoon, in a scene one would expect to see in a movie depicting the brutal reign of Communist Soviet Union leader Joseph Stalin, Mar-a-Lago, President Trump’s Florida home, was raided by a large group of KGB FBI agents.

Never forget that Trump warned his supporters at a rally in Illinois on June 26:

“Remember, they’re coming after me because I’m standing up for you…And they’re coming after you…Believe me—they’re coming after you!

Never forget everything this corrupt establishment is doing to me is all about preserving their power and control over the American people.

If I renounced my beliefs—which I won’t do—If I agreed to stay silent—If I stayed at home—If I said that a corrupt election ‘was wonderful’—the persecution would stop immediately. They’d say, ‘Good luck, let’s go after the next victim!’

But I can’t do that because I love this country far, far too much!”

Trump’s supporters cheered wildly. They cheered for him because they know that he is correct. If he just gave up on caring about the safety and security of our elections, the Democrats and their weaponized intelligence agencies would go quietly away.

 

Following the raid on his home, President Trump offered the following statement:

These are dark times for our Nation, as my beautiful home, Mar-A-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, is currently under siege, raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents.

Nothing like this has ever happened to a President of the United States before. After working and cooperating with the relevant Government agencies, this unannounced raid on my home was not necessary or appropriate.

It is prosecutorial misconduct, the weaponization of the Justice System, and an attack by Radical Left Democrats who desperately don’t want me to run for President in 2024, especially based on recent polls, and who will likewise do anything to stop Republicans and Conservatives in the upcoming Midterm Elections.

Such an assault could only take place in broken, Third-World Countries. Sadly, America has now become one of those countries, corrupt at a level not seen before. They even broke into my safe! What is the difference between this and Watergate, where operatives broke into the Democrat National Committee? Here, in reverse, Democrats broke into the home of the 45th President of the United States.

The political persecution of President Donald J. Trump has been going on for years, with the now fully debunked Russia, Russia, Russia Scam, Impeachment Hoax #1, Impeachment Hoax #2, and so much more, it just never ends. It is political targeting at the highest level!

Hillary Clinton was allowed to delete and acid wash 33,000 E-mails AFTER they were subpoenaed by Congress. Absolutely nothing has happened to hold her accountable. She even took antique furniture and other items from the White House.

I stood up to America’s bureaucratic corruption, I restored power to the people, and truly delivered for our Country, like we have never seen before. The establishment hated it. Now, as they watch my endorsed candidates win big victories, and see my dominance in all polls, they are trying to stop me, and the Republican Party, once more.

The lawlessness, political persecution, and Witch Hunt must be exposed and stopped.

I will continue to fight for the Great American People!

Top Detroit Election Official Says Satellite Voting Centers “don’t tabulate” Votes...So, Why Are Tabulators Being Delivered to This Detroit Satellite Voting Center? [VIDEO]

Despite the best efforts of the media and their fake “fact-checkers” and dishonest Secretaries of State like Michigan’s Soros puppet, Jocelyn Benson, a massive number of Americans refuse to believe their lies about the 2020 election being the most accurate and secure in history.

Last night, Jim Hoft of the Gateway Pundit and Patty McMurray of 100 Percent Fed Up sat down with two of the co-founders of MC4EI (MI Citizens for Election Integrity) to discuss some of their key findings from the 2020 and now the 2022 election. In addition to explaining how MI SOS Benson’s new “rules” for future elections make it even harder for poll challengers and observers to do their jobs, they also discuss a new finding in the Detroit drop box footage they’ve been pouring over for several months.

Prior to the August 2, 2022, primary election in Detroit, MC4EI co-founders Phil O’Halloran and Joe Brandis, along with former MI Senator Patrick Colbeck, author of “the 2020 Coup” and keeper of the “Let’s Fix Stuff” election integrity website, were able to do a walkthrough of the former TCF Center (now Huntington Place) where absentee ballots from Detroit are counted. During their walkthrough, Joe Brandis of MC4EI asked top election officials Chris Thomas and Daniel Baxter if any of the 20 satellite voting centers tabulated votes. Daniel Baxter replied, “No, they don’t tabulate there,” he replied. So, if “they don’t tabulate” votes at the satellite counting centers, why were four tabulators being delivered to the Heilmann Rec Center that doubles as a satellite voting center, one month before the November 3, 2020 election, as discovered by the MC4EI team in the drop box surveillance video seen below?

The entire interview can be seen here. This is a MUST WATCH for anyone who wants to understand better the multiple layers of deceit that go into stealing elections. We also share video footage of a poll challenger named Braden being thrown out of Huntington Place. Braden was credentialed by MC4EI and was thrown out of the Detroit absentee ballot counting center on Tuesday night after he questioned why poll challengers are not allowed to go up on the raised platform where Daniel Baxter, Chris Thomas, Dominion representatives, and other election officials are allegedly adjudicating ballots and overseeing the operations. He also questioned why one of the computers at a counting station was online and why they were processing a ballot that didn’t meet the requirements to be processed. In 2020, GOP and Independent poll challengers were intimidated, threatened, locked out, and physically removed from the counting room, all in an effort to prevent them from doing their jobs and put other poll challengers on notice. Will the RNC, MIGOP, and other election integrity groups allow this to happen again in November?

Watch:

100 Percent Fed Up and Gateway Pundit will remain vigilant in our reporting on election fraud and “irregularities” in the 2020 and the upcoming 2022 election, despite coordinated attempts by elected Democrat officials in Michigan and coordinated attempts by media and “fact-checkers” to discredit us.

AZ Co Election Director Resigns After ABJECT FAILURE of Election Operations on Primary Day

Pinal County, Arizona’s election director has resigned due to allegations of voter irregularities and a shortage of ballots on the day of the primary

The election director for Pinal County, Arizona, David Frisk, resigned Thursday after allegations of voter irregularities and ballot shortages on Tuesday’s Primary election day.

Arizona State Sen. Sonny Borrelli is a lead sponsor of currency-grade ballot security measures

Pinal County’s government confirmed in a statement that “David Frisk is no longer in the position of Elections Director and is no longer employed by Pinal County.”

Tuesday’s primary election day in Pinal County saw a shortage of ballots and thousands of early ballots being sent to the wrong voters–two massive errors.

David Frisk was in charge of ordering the correct number of ballots, according to the Pinal County Board of Supervisors Chairman Jeffrey McClure.

“I’m not sure how the ballot shortage happened,” McClure said. “We opened the boxes, and there weren’t enough ballots.”

“As a Board, we are deeply embarrassed and frustrated by the mistakes that have been made in this primary election,” McClure continued on Thursday, “and as such, we are taking immediate steps to ensure the November election runs smoothly, as elections in Pinal County have historically done prior to this primary.”

The ballot shortages affected 25 out of 95 precincts within the county, impacting roughly 750 out of 50,000 voters. In some municipal races, the difference between winner and loser came down to a mere ten votes.

The Republican National Committee describes the ballot shortage as a “comprehensive failure” impacting “Republican heavy-precincts” across the state. The RNC claimed that at least 12 precinct voting locations did not have enough Republican ballots due to the shortages and described the event as “inexcusable in a precinct voting location system.”

“At least one voting location was not opened at 6 AM and did not open until 10 AM; there were disabled voting machines not plugged in or with the appropriate paper to use, disenfranchising disabled voters,” the RNC claims.

Furthermore, a staggering 63,000 early mail ballots “were sent to the wrong voters due to a misprint regarding municipal elections.”

The RNC continues to emphasize election integrity programs to ensure that similar mistakes do not occur during the crucial 2022 midterm election.

As Trump-Backed AZ Gov Candidate Awaits Primary Election Results, Major Voting Issues Are Revealed in State’s Largest Counties

Pinal County, Arizona, one of the state’s largest counties, experienced major issues at polling sites on Tuesday.

By 5 p.m., the county ran out of in-person ballots due to “unprecedented demand.” Polling site workers had to begin printing out additional ballots to send out to the sites that ran out.

As if this wasn’t bad enough, due to a printing error, some voters had to fill out two ballots because some ballots did not include the municipal races. Voters were forced to fill out a separate municipal-only ballot, as well as the ballot for the state, federal legislative, and county races.

Issues were reported with the “two ballot” system, with some reporting that they were not given the municipal ballot at all. Others claimed that it was the Republican ballots they were out of, although this has not been confirmed by county officials.

GOP Chair Ronna McDaniel and Republican Party of Arizona Chair Kelli Ward issued a scathing joint statement on the election system’s failures within their state, calling for the resignation of the Pinal County Elections Director:

“During Arizona’s primary elections, the RNC and Republican Party of Arizona’s poll observer program documented and reported multiple failures by Pinal County’s Elections Administrator, including 63,000 mail-in ballots delivered to the wrong voters and multiple Republican-heavy precinct locations running out of ballots. This is a comprehensive failure that disenfranchised Arizonans and exemplifies why Republican-led efforts for transparency at the ballot box are so important. Pinal County Elections Director David Frisk should resign immediately.”

https://twitter.com/bennpetersen/status/1554672205472022529?s=20

Arizona Senator Kelly Townsend also voiced her disapproval of the voting issues in Pinal County, making it clear that these errors are completely unacceptable.

“I am aware of the issue of the lack of ballots in Pinal County. I have been in communication with County officials and I am demanding a solution and possible injunction. I will update as soon as I know more but this is wholly and completely unacceptable!”

In Maricopa County, another one of Arizona’s largest counties, multiple poll workers claimed that the ink from government-issued pens was smearing on the ballots and making them more difficult to correctly run through the machines.

One poll worker reported, “We’ve had several ballots come through with the markers that got smeared in the machine. Probably 10-15% right now. We got them all except one to work by spinning them around and trying different angles, some take 3-4 tries.”

Election results in Arizona are slowly coming in despite the major voting issues that took place.

Trump-endorsed U.S. Senate candidate Blake Masters has secured a victory in the Republican Senate primary, and Trump-endorsed Mark Finchem won the GOP Secretary of State race. David Farnsworth, yet another Trump-backed candidate, clinched his Senate primary win against never-Trumper Russell Bowers.

Trump-backed Senate candidate Blake Masters

Meanwhile, all eyes are on the race for the GOP Arizona governor candidate.

The Trump-endorsed candidate for governor, Kari Lake, at the time of this article’s publication, is holding a small lead over opponent Karrin Taylor Robson, who is endorsed by Mike Pence, with about 80% of the vote counted.

The race is still too close to call.

DETROIT ELECTION UPDATE: MI Independent Poll Challengers Report “At least 50 percent of absentee ballot envelopes missing signature verification check mark”

Michigan voters took to the polls to select candidates who will represent them in several state and congressional races, including the race for the next GOP candidate for governor. Hundreds of Detroit election workers were hired to process the votes at the former TCF Center, which is now called the Huntington Center.

Under the tables where paid Detroit election workers sit are large duffel bags, coolers, and a variety of large bags. Sitting directly next to the bags under the table are US Postal Service trays used in the counting process to hold absentee ballots. No security issues there—LOL!

On top of the tables where the absentee ballots were being counted, there were also legitimate concerns by both GOP and Independent poll challengers who questioned why at least 50% of the ballots were lacking certification that they had been checked for signature verification at the clerk’s office before being sent over to the Huntington Place be counted. In the lower-left corner of the envelope that contains the absentee ballot, there is a box for the person checking the validity of the signature to either mark with a red pen or stamp with an official stamp from the clerk’s office. According to multiple poll challengers, the box was left empty at least 50% of the time.

These reports shouldn’t surprise anyone since Michigan’s dishonest Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson doesn’t take signature matching on ballots seriously. Countless irregularities were discovered in the 2020 election and hundreds of objections arose over the handling of absentee ballots. Finally, a Michigan judge ruled that Michigan’s Secretary of State did, in fact, break the law when she directed city clerks to ignore the signature matching law on absentee ballots in the 2020 election.  However, the ruling came too late to have any effect on Benson’s mismanaged 2020 election that millions of reasonable Americans did not trust.

MI Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson

By now, most Americans know about the events that occurred in 2020 on the day after the general election at the TCF Center in Detroit. GOP and Independent poll challengers were intimidated and threatened by outside agitators working in unison with Democrats and paid election workers. Although it’s against the law to threaten these volunteers whose duty it is to protect the vote, there were no repercussions for their actions. A lead election official told poll challengers to take a break while the military ballots that had just arrived in the TCF Center (a full day after the election) were sorted and prepared to be counted. Democrats and outside agitators, who likely knew what was about to come down, had food delivered to a specific section of the room where they had chairs and tables, while Republicans had to go to another floor in the TCF Center to find a place to sit and to grab a bite to eat. When GOP poll challengers returned to the counting room, the doors were being locked—” COVID,” they said. They needed to lock the doors because there were suddenly too many people, and unfortunately, that meant that the GOP poll workers who just took the break (suggested by a top election official) were locked out of the process and could not return.

When GOP poll workers objected to being locked out of the counting room, election workers and outside agitators quickly covered the windows with a view into the counting room with paper and cardboard boxes from the pizza they had just finished as they watched GOP poll workers locked out in the outside lobby.

Over 200 affidavits were signed by GOP and Independent poll workers from that day, citing various issues ranging from tabulator irregularities and accusations of tabulator connectivity to the internet to outright fraud. To date, not one person has been held accountable for their illegal behavior or for any of the issues cited in the affidavits.

As an observer in the media box, it appears that the atmosphere is much more relaxed than in the 2020 election. No obvious outside agitators are disrupting the process, and less paid election workers are threatening GOP poll workers (so far, two GOP poll challengers have indicated they will be filing charges of intimidation against two election workers). The 2022 primary election is a dry run for the 2022 general election that will be a hotly contested race with Democrat Governor Gretchen Whitmer, Michigan’s dishonest Democrat Sec. of State Jocelyn Benson, and America’s most lawless Attorney General, Democrat Dana Nessel—Michigan’s Trifecta of Tyranny on the ballot.

Election Shenanigans – Michigan Polling Location Closed After Suspicious Package Found [VIDEO]

Concerning reports have filtered in from around the country concerning election day problems. The latest involves a precinct not far from Flint in Genesee County, Michigan.
The Genesee County Sheriff’s Office closed a polling precinct around 1:30 Tuesday. Linden Police Chief Scott Sutter said Faith Baptist Church of Linden was shut down as a precautionary measure after the report of a suspicious package at the church came in.

Linden City residents intending to vote in person during the Tuesday, August 2 Primary Election were greeted by police and told they could vote absentee if they wanted and would need to travel about a mile away to Linden City Hall. Genessee’s Sheriff’s office brought in bomb-sniffing dogs, and the Michigan State Police Bomb Squad arrived a few hours later.
More details have not yet been provided.

Michigan has a hotly contested Republican Governor’s Primary being decided today. The race has drawn much national attention, from 5 candidates being disqualified earlier this summer after signature problems to candidate Ryan Kelly being arrested for his involvement in attending the January 6 rally in D.C.

Ryan Kelly speaking out on vaccine mandates.

Michigan GOP’s Chairman Ron Weiser encouraged Michigan citizens to get out and vote, reminding them that the Democrats have been messing with their primary elections and that they need to replace Gov. Gretchen Whitmer with someone who will help Michigan.

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Middle-Aged Man Allegedly Threatens To Shoot Female MI GOP Worker Standing Outside MIGOP HQ On Primary Election Day...WARNED: The “whole place is getting shot up!”

This morning, at approximately 9 AM ET, a white, overweight, middle-aged male wearing a red t-shirt and carrying a camera around his neck approached a female MI GOP worker and threatened her outside the MI GOP headquarters in Lansing.

Today is primary Election Day in Michigan. Yesterday, Michigan’s dishonest Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson turned up the heat in Michigan between political parties when she called for a last-minute press conference with a room full of “reporters” asking questions designed to call into question the motives behind Republican poll challengers and clerks who may report election irregularities or election fraud.

The divisive, partisan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson used her press conference to put poll challengers, city, township, and county clerks on notice that she would not tolerate their “shenanigans” in this election. She also warned that any efforts by members of boards of canvassers to refuse to certify the election results would be futile. Near the end of the clip from yesterday’s press conference, Benson can be heard calling anyone who calls the election results into question “un-American.”

According to an inside source, the man approached the MI GOP worker standing outside on the sidewalk in front of the MI GOP headquarters on Seymour Ave in Lansing, MI, and threatened to shoot her. According to our source,  the unidentified white male then warned her she “better get out of there” because “the whole place [MI GOP headquarters] is getting shot up!” The suspect was also reportedly taking photos of the young female worker and videotaping her during the confrontation.

The MI GOP worker, who is also a young mother, reported the incident to law enforcement, and the alleged crime is under investigation. According to our source, cameras are located outside the MIGOP building.

The MI GOP headquarters, where important Election Day Operations were taking place, have been temporarily moved for security purposes. There were approximately ten people inside the building when the alleged incident occurred.

Remember when President Trump was blamed for the violence on January 6th for speaking in a completely different area of Washington DC while protesters were already approaching the Capitol grounds?  Is it a stretch to ask if Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson is responsible for inciting violence against employees of the MI GOP with her rhetoric about “consequences” for anyone who disputes or disrupts the election process?

While Benson didn’t specifically mention GOP poll challengers or her GOP opponent Kristina Karamo (whose top priority is to fix Michigan’s broken elections), she did threaten “consequences” for anyone who doesn’t follow her new rules or for anyone violating election law. She also threatened members of boards of canvassers who refuse to certify the election results, saying that their actions “would be futile.” During yesterday’s press conference, one of the “reporters” specifically called out a GOP clerk in St. Clair County, MI. Benson responded by warning that voters will be the “gatekeepers” of the elections—whatever that means.

Top Election Officials in Detroit – Who Can You Trust?? Better off Trusting a Snake!

TruthLies

How much weight should be given to the statements and conclusions of “election officials”? 

In Wisconsin, election officials ignored the state election code by providing that nursing homes could disregard Wisconsin’s requirement that special voting deputies oversee elections in residential facilities.  Nursing home residents were victimized by ballot harvesters as a consequence.  This has been investigated in detail by Special Counsel and retired Justice of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, Michael Gableman.

In Arizona, a Maricopa County Supervisor, Steve Chucri, through leaked audio recordings, revealed that the initial very small-scale audit performed by the county after the 2020 election was “pretty bullshit.”  He said his county colleagues “didn’t have the guts” to do a real audit.  He admitted to the occurrence of multifaceted ballot harvesting.  He had to resign later over this leak and then stated publicly that there was no fraud in the 2020 election.

So much for the opinions and statements of some election officials.  However, it needs to be said that there are thousands of decent, law-abiding election clerks and workers.  To be clear, this “story” is not about them.

Now, what happened in Michigan? 

Chris Thomas, the top election official on the floor of the Detroit TCF Center in the 2020 General Election, claimed in an affidavit that no valid challenges were refused or ignored by Detroit election workers. The TCF center was where absentee ballots were tabulated.  Yet, according to “TCF Timeline,” a report detailing the lawless and fraudulent behavior that occurred at the TCF center, not only were valid challenges routinely refused by poll workers and supervisors, Thomas himself is alleged to have refused the challenge of a group of several thousand ballots. This challenge was deemed valid by a GOP election lawyer (G. Kline Preston), who assisted the GOP challenger (Jason Humes).

Chris Thomas (left), Senior Advisor to Detroit Clerk Janice Winfrey with Special Project Consultant Daniel Baxter of the Detroit Department of Elections, describing procedure at the pre-election Challenger Conference inside the TCF Center, October 29th, 2020.

What do we mean by “challenges”?  Poll challengers, by state law, have the right to challenge ballots deemed illegitimate or election procedures not being properly carried out by poll workers, currently referred to as election inspectors.  When a challenge is made, it must be recorded by election officials and duly noted.

So, these two GOP poll challengers (one of them the GOP lawyer as mentioned) challenged 5,000-7,000 ballots on election day.  Chris Thomas and Daniel Baxter, another top election official, refused to acknowledge the challenges made concerning “problem ballots” that were not shown to be from legitimate and duly registered voters.

As noted in sworn affidavits, the GOP poll challengers requested that these “problem ballots” be sequestered to preserve and record their timely, well-stated challenges to these ballots.  Thomas took the two challengers to a computer and demonstrated to them by using internet access to the state voter file (QVF) that the ballot processors had merely made a mistake by not “clicking save.”  When they asked Thomas and Baxter how it could be ensured that these problem ballots were properly verified, the response they were given was “trust us”!

Even President Ronald Reagan, in a former cold war era, uttered the memorable phrase, “Trust, BUT VERIFY.”  Imagine your bank not requiring verification of identity or a business conducting a transaction, or the airlines, or national defense agencies, and on and on.  It defies the imagination!  Who would verify that Thomas and Baxter would indeed follow through and verify these ballots?  And with no bipartisan oversight?  It is like trusting the Iranians and North Koreans to dismantle their nuclear weapons because they “said they would.”  If anyone believes that, we could probably sell them the Brooklyn Bridge and toss in the Eiffel Tower to boot!

In other words, the “unidentified problem ballots” should still be considered legitimate!   Thomas later claimed in an affidavit that the two challengers then “chose not to file a challenge” after seeing this demonstration on the computer.

This top election official’s claim runs entirely counter to the sworn statements of the two GOP poll challengers.   They DID NOT refuse to press forward with challenges.  They were denied!  In fact, many other GOP challengers were denied their right to have their challenges recorded as well.

Challengers claimed that they were frequently denied the right to view, inspect and challenge ballots and procedures and, in some cases, were even physically removed from the counting board floor by police, allegedly for simply making a challenge, as is their duty when faced with questionable ballot counting procedures. The sworn statement of Chris Thomas says, “I am not aware of any valid challenge being refused or ignored or any challengers being removed because they were challenging ballots.” This simply does not square with the testimonies of dozens of affiants.

The ironic thing is that even ballots that are “challenged” are still allowed to be tabulated, which doesn’t make sense, but remember, this is Detroit we are talking about.

But, if one is dealing with thousands of ballots, maybe it’s not such a good thing to acknowledge that there was an abundance of “challenges” calling into question the security and integrity of the election. So, here we have the top election officials pretending under oath that such challenges never occurred.  It’s a case of he said, she said.  And then the usual parade of leftist judges and kowtowing media lines up behind these officials and the conclusion? Case closed.

One of cybersecurity’s most used buzzwords is “zero trust.”  It is “a strategic approach to cybersecurity that secures an organization by eliminating implicit trust and continuously validating every stage of a digital interaction.  Rooted in the principle of “never trust, always verify.”

The problem in Detroit and elsewhere in the nation in the 2020 election, voters were expected to “trust us” with no verification.  We should apply the principles of zero trust to the election process as well.

And so, to our top election officials in Detroit in the 2020 election, we say the following: Your actions did not deserve our trust.

Dr. Ben Carson said the following: “People all over the nation are starved for honesty and common sense.”

We are on a dangerous path if we don’t have truth and honesty in our elected or appointed officials.  Citizens need to be informed and demand election integrity.  Our well-being, security, and freedom as a nation depend on it.  In the words of John Adams, “You will never know how much it has cost my generation to preserve your freedom.  I hope you will make good use of it.”

The original, detailed report from which this article is derived is available from Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity (MC4EI.com) as written by Phil O’Halloran, VP of MC4EI.

It is the third in a series of three articles written by O’Halloran based on the events that occurred at the TCF Center in Detroit on Election Day.  It is entitled: “Trust Us”—-Detroit Election Chiefs to GOP Challengers During the 2020 Election.”

Part One was: “Ambush on the Detroit River”

Part Two was: “Were Undocumented Ballots the Main Reason for Fraud at Detroit’s TCF Center?”

BRILLIANT Former MI Senator Writes OUTSTANDING Book Outlining How The 2020 Election Was Stolen...”The 2020 Coup” Is A MUST READ!

We’ve all heard fake news pushing stories with talking points like “there is no evidence of election fraud” or that attack anyone who provide such evidence as a “conspiracy theorist.”  As it turns out, there is quite a bit of evidence in support of claims that the 2020 election was a coup.  In other words, these “conspiracy theories” are more accurately referred to as “evidence of a conspiracy.”  And there is a lot of evidence.  Patrick Colbeck chronicles this evidence in his new book, The 2020 Coup: What Happened. What We Can Do.”

Patrick Colbeck is uniquely qualified to organize and share this information.  He was a poll challenger at the TCF Center in Detroit during the 2020 election.  He witnessed the late-night ballot deliveries.  He witnessed the pizza boxes on the wall to prevent oversight of election operations.

MI GOP Senator Patrick Colbeck

The Gateway Pundit spoke with the former MI Senator Patrick Colbeck about his experience at the absentee counting board:

As a certified Microsoft Small Business Specialist, he confirmed that the voting systems were indeed connected to the internet during the tabulation of the votes.  He also served as a Michigan State Senator for eight years, including service as Vice Chair of the Senate Elections and Government Reform Committee.  He is uniquely qualified to discuss both the technical and process facets involved in a modern election.  As the title suggests, he is convinced that the evidence he has assembled clearly indicates that the 2020 “election” was actually a “selection.”  It was a coup.

If you are to read one book on the 2020 election, this is the book.

The book starts with the equivalent of an Elections 101 course but quickly progresses into laying out a theory about how someone would go about stealing an election.  From this backdrop, he proceeds to systematically show how all of the evidence reveals that his theory on how the election could be stolen actually happened during the 2020 general election.

Unlike many of his media detractors, Colbeck provides links to the evidence which led to this conclusion.  You can see the evidence for yourself and determine if it supports his conclusions. 

He even created a website where readers can easily access the references cited in his footnotes called LetsFixStuff.org. You can find his incredible new “The 2020 Coup” book by clicking on his Let’s Fix Stuff website or by clicking on this link: The2020Coup.com.

Mike Lindell has also made Patrick Colbeck’s OUSTANDING book available on his MyStore website at a DISCOUNT! Go to: MyStore and add the “MeddlingKids” code to get a HUGE discount!

Do your own homework.  Think for yourself.  When you do, I am certain you will join me in saying that this is THE book to read if you want to know what happened in the 2020 election.

BOOM! Rep. Dan Bishop Obliterates Asst. AG Over Fake Kidnapping Plot of Unpopular Dem Gov Gretchen Whitmer By FBI Agents Only One Month Before Election [VIDEO]

This morning, during a congressional hearing with the DOJ, Rep. Dan Bishop (R-NC) obliterated Assistant Attorney General Matthew Olsen over the alleged set up of Americans by the FBI in the so-called Governor Whitmer “kidnapping case” in Michigan.

“The evidence that jury heard mostly in text messages and testimony of agents and informants of the FBI is that the FBI did not discover an existing scheme and collect evidence and take down plotters.  Instead, the FBI contrived the plot, used its informants to draw people into the plot, and provided logistical and financial support to what was, in effect, an FBI operation.

You had a lead informant, a guy named ‘Big Dan’ who was paid $54,000 over 6 months to pretend to lead a fake militia to recruit, really disadvantaged and unstable men from a Facebook discussion group. One of them was living in the cellar of a vacuum repair shop. FBI paid travel expenses for people involved and food and even alcoholic beverages to take the targeted folks to a militia conference out of state.

At one point, according to a New York Times,  there was a night time surveillance at Governor Whitmer’s vacation cabin and four of the participants were informants, including ‘Big Dan’ or undercover agents.”

Assistant Attorney General Matt Olsen refused to answer Rep. Bishop’s important questions about the FBI and DOJ using their power to affect the outcome of elections, citing the “ongoing case” as an excuse to not answer.

Watch:

Here’s the background on the so-called Whitmer kidnapping plot that she attempted to blame on President Trump only one month before the election:

On October 8, it was announced that six men had been arrested over an alleged plot to kidnap MI Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D) and turn her over in Wisconsin for trial on the charge of treason. The unsealed complaint in a federal court charged six men. Five of the men are Michigan residents Adam Fox, Ty Garbin, Kaleb Franks, Daniel Harris, Brandon Caserta, the sixth man, Barry Croft is a Delaware resident.

During an interview with Paul Egan of the Detroit Free Press, Governor Whitmer, with no evidence of her unproven accusation, attempted to tie the group of men accused of plotting to kidnap her to President Trump and white supremacy.

The truth is, the more the public discovers about the men involved in the plot to kidnap Governor Whitmer, the more it’s clear the anti-police, anti-government, anti-Trump radicals were more aligned with the Marxist BLM movement and violent domestic terrorist group, Antifa.

When the story first broke about the alleged kidnapping plot, the so-called target of the plot, Michigan’s tyrannical governor Gretchen Whitmer, was auditioning to become Biden’s vice president but was losing support from Michigan residents of every political party over her handling of the COVID pandemic that included tyrannical lockdowns and the intentional placing of COVID positive patients into nursing homes.

The timing of the so-called plot that suddenly turned Democrat Gretchen Whitmer,  But how much of the kidnapping plot was actually organic, and how much of it was a set-up by the FBI to turn one of America’s most unpopular governors into a “victim”? With the 2020 general election only one month away and Michigan being a must-win state for Trump, the timing of the story certainly couldn’t have been more perfect.

On July 21, 2021, a 39-year-old FBI agent involved in the so-called kidnapping plot of the unpopular Democrat governor was arrested for a violent domestic incident involving his wife and charged with assault.

FBI special agent Richard Trask was charged with assault with intent to do great bodily harm less than murder following a domestic incident with his wife.

MSN – The Detroit News reported on details of the allegations against Trask, which were reportedly outlined in an affidavit from the Kalamazoo County Sheriff’s Office: Trask and his wife allegedly attended a swingers’ party at a hotel in Oshtemo Township on Sunday, where they reportedly had several drinks and then got into an argument on the way home. Once home, Trask allegedly got on top of his wife in bed and “then grabbed the side of her head and smashed it several times on the nightstand,” the News quoted the affidavit as saying.

According to the affidavit, Trask also allegedly began to choke his wife, who grabbed his testicles. Trask allegedly left the couple’s home in his wife’s car and was found in a supermarket parking lot.

Trask’s wife was reportedly covered in blood and had a bloody laceration on the right side of her head and bruises on her neck following the incident, according to the affidavit reported by the News.

Trask was arraigned and then released from custody Monday on a $10,000 personal recognizance bond.

Even before the specifics of the allegations against him were disclosed, Trask’s arrest spelled trouble for the kidnapping case, which is set to go to trial in October.“It’s the last thing you want for a major case like this,” Andrew Arena, former special agent in charge of the FBI’s Detroit office, told the Detroit News Monday. “Any time you give the defense any ammunition, it’s not good.”

Post Millennial reports – Trask’s arrest comes at a critical juncture in the criminal case against the five men charged in federal court with plotting to kidnap Gov. Gretchen Whitmer.

Trask has worked for the FBI since 2011 and served as the law enforcement agency’s public face in the Whitmer case, testifying in federal court about the investigation and providing context about multiple undercover recordings.

A lawyer for an alleged bombmaker charged in the Whitmer case raised questions last Sunday about whether the FBI is trying to sabotage the defense ahead of trial. Delaware resident Barry Croft’s attorney filed excerpts revealing the existence of a recording in which lead investigator FBI special agent Henrik Impola discussed creating “utter disarray and chaos” for defense lawyers, whom he labeled as “paid liars” whose jobs are to “take the truth and portray it in a different sense.”

Trask’s legal issues weren’t the first to affect participants in the kidnapping investigation: One of the lead prosecutors handling a parallel state case, Gregory Townsend, was reassigned in May as the state’s attorney general audited his work in past cases. And Stephen Robeson, an FBI informant considered an important witness in the federal case, was indicted in March on charges of being a felon in possession of a firearm. Robeson was one of several confidential informants, in addition to undercover FBI agents, who were involved in the case as the kidnapping plot came together. A lengthy report from BuzzFeed News Tuesday found that “some of those informants, acting under the direction of the FBI, played a far larger role than has previously been reported,” raising questions — as defense attorneys for several of the accused have done in court — “as to whether there would have even been a conspiracy without them.”One of the six men charged federally for the kidnapping plot, Ty Garbin, pleaded guilty to conspiracy in January.

Trask was arrested one week after defense lawyers revealed in court filings the team’s defense strategy that claims that FBI informants entrapped the accused suspects. Trask is prohibited from possessing a firearm, bond conditions stipulate.

The 14 total arrests, which came three months before the Jan. 6 riot, over the conspiracy plot to kidnap Whitmer and overthrow the state’s government, also involved the storming of the state’s Capitol building. Of the arrestees, at least five were undercover agents and federal informants, Revolver News reported. 
Skeptical voices such as conservative commentator Dinesh D’Souza and investigative journalist Darren J. Beattie, author of the bombshell Revolver News article that explored the FBI’s possible role in the Capitol Hill riot, have since spotlighted the parallels between the Jan. 6 federal breach of the Capitol building and the Michigan governor’s almost-kidnapping.

Watch here:

On December 25, 2021, the defense team for the “radical extremists”  accused of participating in a plot to kidnap Michigan’s unpopular Governor Gretchen Whitmer called on the judge to throw out the case against their clients.

Detroit News – The 20-page motion, filed Christmas night by all five defense lawyers, asks U.S. District Judge Robert Jonker to dismiss the conspiracy charge. The move would effectively dismantle the government’s case and remaining charges, which are intertwined and based on the conspiracy charge, the lawyers wrote.

“Essentially, the evidence here demonstrates egregious overreaching by the government’s agents, and by the informants those agents handled,” defense lawyers wrote. “When the government was faced with evidence showing that the defendants had no interest in a kidnapping plot, it refused to accept failure and continued to push its plan.”

On April 8, 2022, two of the four defendants were acquitted of all charges as a mistrial was declared over the other two due to the defense’s successful arguing that their clients were victims of entrapment by the FBI.

WOW! High-Ranking Member Of Wisconsin Assembly Calls For DECERTIFICATION Of 2020 Election Results

There has been an internal civil war brewing in Wisconsin’s Republican Party between Republicans who believe that we should move past the 2020 election without passing election integrity measures or seeing if the results were valid.

Wisconsin’s Assembly Speaker, Robin Vos, has turned on President Trump and came out last week saying that he turned his back on President Trump when he asked him to look in to the results of the 2020 election.

One of Wisconsin’s most influential State Representatives joined the growing chorus of people who want to decertify the 2020 election results this week.

Wisconsin state Rep. Janel Brandtjen, R-Menomonee Falls, announced Friday that she would support a decertification of the 2020 presidential election.

The announcement comes as Republicans in swing states such as Arizona and Michigan fight to secure the integrity of our elections.

Right Side Broadcasting News Reports–

https://twitter.com/PurpleHazedays/status/1550547517099888640?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1550547517099888640%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.rsbnetwork.com%2Fnews%2Fwisconsin-assembly-elections-committee-chair-calls-for-decertification-of-the-2020-election%2F

A Wisconsin state representative has added her name to the growing list of legislators calling for the decertification of the 2020 presidential election.

Stating that “tyranny is at Wisconsin’s door,” state Rep. Janel Brandtjen, R-Menomonee Falls, announced Friday that she would join state Rep. Timothy Ramthun, R-Campbellsport, in calling for the move.

“Fair and honest elections are the cornerstone of our democracy and we know that the 2020 presidential election was neither fair, nor transparent,” explained Brandtjen, who chairs the Wisconsin Assembly Committee on Campaigns and Elections.

“A handful of rogue clerks, along with the Wisconsin Election Commission (WEC), decided they would subvert our election processes with private money, drop boxes, illegal use of the indefinitely confined provision and elimination of special voting deputies,” she continued. Brandtjen added that those factors have made it impossible to know the true outcome of the election.

Election Integrity Takes Another Nosedive with Dem “Promote the Vote” initiative in Michigan! Voters, don’t be fooled!!

A Guest Post co-authored by:
Becky Behrends, M.D. VP of Research for Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity
Phil O’Halloran, VP of Michigan Citizens for Election Integrity

FILE – In this Sept. 24, 2020, file photo, Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson wears a mask before talking about voting and the upcoming elections in Detroit. Benson said Tuesday, Oct. 20, 2020, that the 1.5 million people with absentee ballots still in hand should put them in a drop box or take them to their local clerk’s office rather than use the mail with two weeks to go until the presidential election. (AP Photo/Paul Sancya, File)

Here we go again!  Another attempt to undermine election security and integrity.

Promote the Vote is a coalition of organizations which led the successful effort to pass Proposal 3 in Michigan in 2018.  This proposal added new voting policies to the state constitution, namely straight-ticket voting, automatic voter registration, same-day voter registration and no-excuse absentee voting.  All in time for the 2020 election.

Thus, in 2020, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson flooded the state with unsolicited absentee ballot applications. This coupled with a bloated voter registration roll with no clean-up of dead voters or those people who had moved, same day registration with no verification of eligibility to vote and the infusion of third party money in the form of the infamous ZuckBucks among many other items led to Biden’s “victory” in Michigan.

The deceptively positive-sounding “Promote the Vote 2022” is now back with a petition.  It is a dark money funded attempt to write into the Michigan Constitution many of the worst things that occurred in the 2020 election debacle.

That means it is going to be PERMANENT!  Here are just a few of the awful things about this dangerous initiative.  It would …..

  • Make the now infamous “drop boxes” PERMANENT and distributed everywhere, courtesy of the taxpayer. This will make illegal ballot harvesting and ballot trafficking even easier than when billionaire Mark Zuckerberg financed drop boxes in Michigan in 2020.
  • Restrict election audits to government entities only. Sorry, no independent audits by concerned citizens will be allowed.  If that isn’t letting the fox into the hen house, we don’t know what is!
  • Let people vote without photo ID. The public is being deceived by the notion that “voters will have the right to verify their identity with a photo ID or signed statement.” The signed statement is an affidavit which allows a person to say they are who they say they are with NO VERIFICATION.  They can be charged with perjury if they falsely sign the affidavit but who is going to pursue this?  No one!!!  It is a ruse.
  • Allow funding of (and thus control of) elections by outside organizations directed by billionaires. What amounts to bribery of clerk’s offices will now become legal.
  • Promote and facilitate unsolicited absentee voting. This was, perhaps, the single biggest problem in 2020.  When a state is awash in mail-in ballots, the job of the fraudster is much easier.
  • Require canvassing boards to certify election results based only on the official records of votes cast. No opportunity for the canvassing board to determine if the ballots were legal, or eligible.  Just accept the count.  And yet it is the canvassing board that is supposed to certify an election.  Now, with their hands tied behind their back, according to this petition.  Don’t ask questions, don’t investigate.  Why?  So, the fiasco that occurred at the TCF Center in Detroit in 2020, where 70% precincts were out of balance, and it was still certified, will become the norm.
  • Require military or overseas ballots be counted if postmarked by Election Day. MC4EI feels that there should be a firm deadline for all ballots at the close of election day.  Under UOCAVA (Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act) and amended by MOVE (Military and Overseas Voter Empowerment Act), military and overseas citizens receive their ballots 45 days prior to federal elections.

The public has been propagandized with the notion that republicans who insist on measures to make our elections more secure are engaging in suppression of the vote.  That is simply false.  Conservative, constitutionally based republicans want to make it easy to vote, but hard to cheat.  The two are not mutually exclusive.

Democrats say that election fraud is rare to nonexistent so why put into place measures that make it inconvenient for the voter?  The 2020 election was an unparalleled demonstration of how illogical this argument is.  If fraud is non-existent, then why was there such a barrier to evaluating the 2020 election in detail?  Why did they….

  • Block forensic audits
  • Deny evidentiary hearings in election fraud cases
  • Refuse to respond to subpoenas and FOIA’s (Freedom of Information Act requests) and/or to make the results transparent to the public
  • Accept a 70% “out of balance” in Detroit precinct absentee ballot election results so that by Michigan law, an audit could not be conducted? Why hasn’t the Republican dominated Michigan legislature, in all these years, addressed this egregious law?

So, in essence, what the Democrats did was say “We won’t let you investigate or prove fraud, so therefore, we can conclude there was none.”  But at the same time, any lawyer or citizen who pursues an investigation of it is threatened with the loss of his license or job for “eroding American democracy”.  The liberal Democrat engagement in censorship and denial of “redress of grievances” as allowed by the First Amendment to the US Constitution is what erodes democracy.  Make no mistake about it!

Abundant affidavits and sworn testimony to all the illegal and fraudulent behavior that occurred in the 2020 election are deemed as just one type of evidence whose credibility was determined by the judge.  Since the judiciary is dominated by liberal/leftist judges it is no wonder that all they had to do was lower the gavel and say- “no credibility to your claims” in the preliminary hearings and pronounce it as “case closed”.

Citizens need to STOP and think about what unintended consequences will occur from signing a petition that reads like sugar and spice but IS NOT VERY NICE when it comes to preserving election integrity which should be a bipartisan concern.  This petition will constitutionalize the loss of election integrity and open the doors to abuse and fraud.  Don’t be fooled by “Promote the Vote”.   Your vote does not count if it is diluted out by ineligible and fraudulent votes.  Security in elections is paramount!  Safeguards need to be in place before elections and not minimized as unnecessary or irrelevant.

Say NO to Promote the Vote!!!

BREAKING: PA Outlaws “Zuckbucks” Before Midterm Elections

Pennsylvania has banned public officials from accepting and using money and contributions from nongovernmental entities for election purposes

Pennsylvania is the latest state to ban “Zuckbucks” and nongovernmental funds from using in elections, just in time for the midterms.

Passed through the Republican-led legislature and signed into law by Democrat Governor Tom Wolf, it is now mandated in Pennsylvania that public officials “may not solicit, apply for, enter into a contract for or receive or expend gifts, donations, grants or funding from any individual, business, organization, trust, foundation, or any nongovernmental entity for the registration of voters or the preparation, administration or conducting of an election in [the] Commonwealth.”

Additionally, counties may now apply for election integrity grants for the administration of elections.

In 2020, a Mark Zuckerberg-funded non-profit was used by the Facebook founder to funnel upwards of $400 million into battleground states to alter the results of the elections in favor of Democrats. Pennsylvania Democrats alone gained $25 million in “Zuckbucks.” This influenced the election in favor of Joe Biden.

Pennsylvania was not the only state to be flooded by shady private money. With Pennsylvania’s latest legislation on the matter of election integrity, 22 states have now passed laws against “Zuckbucks” and other nongovernmental election money. Six other states have had similar legislation vetoed by Democrat governors.

The states which have taken steps to secure elections against private interests are:

Alabama

Arizona

Arkansas

Florida

Georgia

Idaho

Indiana

Kansas (despite an attempted veto by Democrat governor Laura Kelly)

Kentucky

Mississippi

Missouri

Nebraska

North Dakota

Ohio

Oklahoma

Pennsylvania (despite the first attempt being vetoed)

South Carolina

South Dakota

Tennessee

Texas

Virginia

West Virginia

Other states such as Wyoming, Michigan, and Wisconsin have had attempts vetoed.

Pennsylvania has taken a crucial step toward securing its elections against future steals.

JUST IN: 2000 Mules Investigators Make Bombshell Discovery...Identify Out-of-State Residents Considered “Important individuals” At TCF Center On Election Day and Day After

EXCLUSIVE BREAKING News from 100 Percent Fed Up and the Gateway Pundit– During an exclusive call, True the Vote founder Catherine Engelbrecht and leader investigator Gregg Phillips have revealed that by utilizing the same geolocation tracking data they used to identify over 200o mules in the ‘2000 Mules’ movie, they have now identified out-of-state residents who they consider “important individuals” who may have been key players in the Detroit election. The individuals they have identified are North Carolina residents and were in Detroit, specifically in critical areas around the TCF Center, where absentee ballots from the November 2020 election were being counted for over 24 hours after the polls closed in Michigan.

On November 4, 2020, at 3:49 am, President Donald J. Trump had his largest lead in the state of Michigan. On Nov 4. at 6:31 am, there was a massive ballot dump of 149,772 ballots, of which only 5968 were for Trump. By 9:02 am, after the early morning ballot dump on Nov. 4, President Trump and Joe Biden incredibly, were tied. Joe Biden curiously won the state of Michigan, a state that Trump won in 2016.

REUTERS/Kevin Lamarque/File Photo

According to Gregg Phillips and Catherine Engelbrecht, the “important individuals” they have identified can be tied to four key locations linked to the election and post-election activity directly around the TCF Center. According to Catherine Engelbrecht, the “important individuals” curiously “Came to town for the election and then left.”

Gregg Phillips and Catherine Engelbrecht

If you or someone you know has knowledge of voter fraud activity that took place in Detroit before, during, or after the November 2020 election, please go to the True The Vote tip line to report. 

In February 2020, the Gateway Pundit was able to confirm the existence of early morning ballot drops in the back hallway of the TCF Center on the morning after the November 2020 election with the surveillance video they exclusively purchased from the TCF Center.

At 3:11 AM, A black sedan (escort vehicle) with Pennsylvania license plates is seen pulling up to a door in the back hallway at the TCF Center. It appears as though the person in the escort vehicle contacts a supervisor or election official (dressed all in black) who leaves the counting room in the TCF Center through a door into the hallway. The black male, dressed all in black, appears to hand something to the driver in the escort vehicle through the window and the escort vehicle pulls away.

At 3:25 AM, the white van enters the back hallway. Three men jump out of the vehicle and begin to unload over 50 USPS absentee ballot transfer boxes filled with absentee ballots from the van onto the counting floor of the TCF Center.

The van is then seen on video, leaving the center about 25 minutes later.

Multiple GOP challengers on the scene would later report them as being positively identified as ballots. Former State Elections Director Chris Thomas, who was assigned to the TCF center as Senior Advisor to City Clerk Janice Winfrey, will later state in a deposition: “No absentee ballots.

Approximately one hour later, the black escort car arrives again at the TCF Center, contacts a supervisor or election official inside who exits through the door of the counting room into the hallway where he hands the escort driver something through the window and as the black vehicle leaves the TCF Center hallway, the white van reappears, and several men begin to unload more boxes of ballots.

The white van that was given entry into the back hallways of the TCF Center on the day after the election was registered to the city of Detroit. The van was allowed entry through an electronic gate outside the TCF complex.

Sen Manchin DERAILS Democrats During Election Season... Here’s Why

West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin derails Senate Democrats’ bill during election season over energy and climate concerns

(Relatively) Moderate Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) has once again derailed Senate Democrats’ plans by refusing to vote for a bill before election season.

Manchin has been in negotiations with Schumer for months and had initially agreed to the stipulations within the bill but has seemingly had a change of heart.

From Fox News:

Manchin was explicit that he won’t support a bill before the midterms with any provisions on energy and climate or closing tax loopholes exploited by the wealthy and biggest corporations, despite his support for those specific things during months of negotiations.

Additionally, Manchin said he would not support a bill that does not include provisions to lower prescription drug costs and a 2-year extension to Affordable Care Act subsidies.

Democrats had intended to pass a massive and sweeping bill before the midterms in order to have something to brag about. However, Manchin’s lack of support may stymie that completely and lead to the more radical left Democrats being ousted.

“Political headlines are of no value to the millions of Americans struggling to afford groceries and gas as inflation soars to 9.1%,” Manchin spokesperson Sam Runyon said in a statement. “Senator Manchin believes it’s time for leaders to put political agendas aside, reevaluate and adjust to the economic realities the country faces to avoid taking steps that add fuel to the inflation fire.”

Manchin believes that the energy crisis and inflation should be the Senate’s top priorities and that the current bill is insufficient to tackle those issues.

In order to pass the budget reconciliation, Democrats only need a majority of 51 rather than the 60 necessary to survive a filibuster.

Without Manchin’s vote, Democrats would likely only be able to muster 49 out of 51 necessary votes due to their nominal 50-50 split in the Senate (Kamala Harris would normally serve as a tiebreaker.)

Manchin dashes the hopes of many Democrats who planned to bank their midterm campaigns off of this bill.

MUTINY: Prominent Left-Wing Group Starts Campaign To Push Biden Not To Run For Re-Election

President Biden’s Presidency has continued to nosedive as inflation has hit a record-high and violent crime soars across the country.

Biden’s approval ratings have continually remained in the low to mid 30s and have shown no signs of increasing as the United States draws closer to the 2022 midterm elections.

Dozens of high-profile Democratic officials have come out against Biden and said that he should not run for re-election in 2024.

Now, one of the top liberal activist groups is openly campaigning to dissuade Biden from running for re-election.

RootsAction, the group behind the campaign, did not pull punches in their messaging.

The groups hashtag, “#DontRunJoe” will be featured in a digital ad campaign, saying that Biden has been neither “bold” nor “inspiring”.

The Gateway Pundit Reports–

On Tuesday, one of the nation’s more prominent, left-leaning groups urged Joe Biden not to run in 2024 with a six-figure “#DontRunJoe” ad campaign.

RootsAction is the group behind the extensive campaign. The far-left group describes itself as “dedicated to galvanizing people who are committed to economic fairness, equal rights for all, civil liberties, environmental protection.”

This week, the group launched the six-figure ad buy in an attempt to block Biden’s 2024 nomination.

The group posted about the campaign on Twitter, saying, “President Biden has been neither bold nor inspiring and his prospects for winning re-election appear to be bleak, RootsAction announced today that we are launching a campaign to prevent his renomination.”

The group noted their influence: “With an email list of 1.2 million current supporters in the US, we are committed to nationwide organizing to prevent Biden from being the 2024 nominee.”

Just In: Wisconsin Supreme Court Ruling – Election Integrity Win

In a close 4-3 ruling, The Wisconsin Supreme Court decided Friday that only the voter can return a ballot in person and that absentee ballot drop boxes can only be used in election offices. Democrats believe this decision makes it harder to vote in the battleground state.

Democrats argue that elderly and disabled voters have difficulty returning their ballots without the assistance of others. But many view this type of ballot harvesting as potentially increasing fraud. And subsequently, many states have laws preventing it.

However, the court didn’t address whether anyone could collect multiple ballots for voters by putting them in the mail instead of a drop box.
This new ruling will affect ballot rules for the Aug. 9 primary and the November election.

Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson

Republican U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson is seeking reelection and said “This decision is a big step in the right direction,” while Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers said it would make “it harder for Wisconsinites to exercise the right to vote.”

 

The Wisconsin Supreme Court decision was praised by Dinesh D’Souza, who said the “Dominoes are starting to fall.”

The president of the law firm that brought suit, Rick Esenberg, said the ruling “provides substantial clarity on the legal status of absentee ballot drop boxes and ballot harvesting.” Also made clear that elections are run according to state law, not Elections Commission guidance.

Despite Democrats’ Best Efforts, The Evidence Isn’t Going Away: The Latest from Arizona And The 2020 Election

A guest post by Jennifer Mitchell Towner of Blue State Conservative

Thanks to Rudy Giuliani and Jenna Ellis, for whom hundreds of Americans who worked the 2020 election came forward to sign affidavits describing the fraud they witnessed. Thanks to Cyber Ninjas, hired by Arizona Legislators to perform a true forensic audit after the 2020 election, and to Jovan Pulitzer who was hired to scrutinize the ballots from the ink to the paper stock, and even to the boxes in which ballots were stored, and the paperwork that recorded how these boxed were handled.

Thanks to many brave members of the Arizona Legislature who had the courage to examine the election results that appeared so impossible to them to be valid. And now, thanks to Kari Lake, Arizona’s brave, clever, charismatic, feisty, and well-spoken Gubernatorial candidate, Arizona’s election fraud is still emerging, and some prosecutions have begun.

Brandon Strake (left) interviews Kari Lake (right) at a #WalkAway event

The latest information on the results of an audit of ballots (Cyber Ninjas did the ballot envelopes and to a large extent, the ballots, and the voting systems) was presented on June 27th at a hotel in Scottsdale. The AZ government would not allow it to take place on government property. It was reported that efforts to live stream the event were sabotaged, initially, but Kari Lake was able to post on Twitter and provide a link to RUMBLE so I could see Jovan Pulitzer’s presentation. A fire alarm went off in the final half-hour, interrupting the final portion of the event, and forcing the audience, legislators, technical staff, and Pulitzer to leave, but not before his presentation was completed.

In my opinion, here are some of the most interesting findings, given my background in publishing technology, scanning, and image processing, all key components of voting systems and software.

Firstly, it is noteworthy that Mark Brnovich, a Republican, and AZ Attorney General, has sat on direct evidence of a mountain of corruption and fraud from government election officials in AZ, including allowing ballots to be counted that were voted by dead people, and even voted by dead people who registered after dying, allowing voting multiple times in multiple counties, allowing those who have moved to still vote in a county which they vacated, ordering signature verification to be disabled, holding back routers even after receiving subpoenas to turn them over to auditors, lying by internal auditors about internet connectivity of voting systems, and election officials’ obstructing of the investigations of election fraud that took place after their bogus internal investigation.

AZ Attorney General Mark Brnovich

Brnovich was called a coward and worse for his failure to honor his oath of office. In the face of “mules” turning themselves in (possibly after seeing themselves performing multiple illegal ballot drops caught on camera and presented in Dinesh DeSouza’s movie, 2000 Mules), Brnovich has been forced to finally begin some Mule prosecutions and ballot harvesting prosecutions. His office as Attorney General is now being challenged by a Trump-endorsed candidate.

Now to the presentation; If a printer prints everything nearly exactly where is supposed to be on a page, the printer is called being in “registration.” By examining the ballots actually voted in the 2020 election, Pulitzer found many ballots that were not in registration. This was visible in the degree of “offness” of the cross-hairs within a type of bulls-eye printed on the ballot for just this purpose of showing whether the ballot printer was within “specs.” If within “specs,” the ballot could be scanned and processed by software and expected to produce a valid voting result.

Jovan Pulitzer

Why would so many ballots be not within printing “specs?” Ballots that cannot be scanned and machine-read are manually “adjudicated.” Being adjudicated means a human must interpret the ballot markings to decide what the voter intended in every race, up-ballot, and down-ballot. Adjudication can be performed by anyone with authorization to do so. Election officials get to choose who performs adjudications. The more ballots that are adjudicated, the more fraud can occur.

If the adjudicators share passwords, then people(election workers, officials, voting system employees) who performed bad adjudications cannot be identified. This was the case in AZ in November 2020. Adjudication in batches of 100, 1000, or 10,000, rather than one-off, allows lots of fraud to occur very quickly. Adjudication rates in 2020 were 6 and 12 times higher than in the past two elections.

What would cause bad registration on a ballot? Paper stock for elections in AZ is supposed to be vote secure. This is the law. Arizona voting took place on lots of ballots that were printed on insecure paper. Bleed through of Sharpie pens occurs on bad paper. Election workers told those voting in person in Arizona that they must use Sharpies. Republicans like to vote in person on election day. Bleed through sends lots of ballots to adjudication because ink circles that are made on the front side of the ballot show up on the back side in odd places, and vice-versa.

Whoever ordered the bad paper was in error and was not operating within the law to run the AZ election. Whoever authorized the use of bad ballots that were out of registration was also acting against the law that dictates valid election procedures. Test runs of voting systems are supposed to be performed to identify such problems. Over 300,000 ballots fell into this category and required adjudication. This is way over, by nearly 30X, in fact, the margin of victory that was declared for Biden.

Folded ballots have artifacts that are visible to machine scanning with software processing. Ballots that were folded by machine and mailed out have different characteristics than those folded by hand at the polls after being printed on-demand. Jovan Pulitzer discovered over 140,000 ballots with folding anomalies. Again, this number is way over the margin of victory for Biden.

Phantom voters were discovered by Jovan Pulitzer to the tune of 246,691 such voters. What is a phantom voter? One type is a voter with the same first and last name, but a different birthday. Another type is one with the same name but voting in a different county. Another type is someone voting under a maiden name as well as a married name or a college student voting in the city in which they are attending school as well as in their home city. Another type is someone with a name that is actually jibberish who is on the roles, and usually never votes but did so in 2020.

The most interesting thing that I learned in watching this presentation, however, was not on the slides. I had learned from the Cyber Ninja’s audit that the election could not legitimately be called for Biden given the number of illegitimate votes counted by AZ election officials.

Jovan Pulitzer determined that the U.S. government ordered many, many ballot folding and envelope stuffing machines in March of 2020. This is more than had ever been ordered before, in a huge purchase. Think about this for a moment. What did these Deep State government purchasing people know in March about the November Presidential Election that would cause them to order so many machines to handle mail-in votes?

In August 2020, many states announced, unconstitutionally, that they were moving to unrestricted mail-in ballots. In July, our government told us that we should not gather with family on July 4th, 2020, restricting our movements and time spent with family on a holiday. Unheard of! Five months EARLIER, surreptitiously, some in our government were getting prepared for processing of masses of mail-in ballots across the country, even though shut-downs had just been implemented then, and the path COVID would take was largely unknown and unpredictable.

In Maricopa County, AZ, over 60,000 ballots were sent out and returned by the Post Office as undelivered. The Post Office actually documents this via scans of both sides of the envelopes. Not saving these ballots is a violation of election law that requires election artifacts to be maintained for 22 months. Jovan Pulitzer was told that these ballots were all destroyed. He wanted to examine them for dead voters, those who had moved and so, were ineligible to vote, and phantom voters, for instance.

The destruction of electronic election data also occurred prior to the Maricopa election office turning over evidence that was under subpoena by Cyber Ninjas. Across the country, I recall hearing of voter roles being purged in the days and months right “AFTER” the 2020 election.

Jovan Pulitzer also reported that many of our elected officials have offloaded maintenance of voter roles to a third-party company claiming to not have the resources for personnel to maintain the roles themselves. Jovan Pulitzer said that he suspects that when people request the voter data for a particular county, they receive it from this third-party company, but that when voting takes place, the “dirty” roles are still being used.

Those who are saying we must “move on,” and “forget about” any fraud that took place in the election are only trying to enable similar fraud to take place again. “So what” if election auditors lied to Arizonans, telling them the voting systems used in Arizona were not connected to the internet. They are not really technical enough to know this, are they? So human error, not malfeasance, was at play, wasn’t it? That is what we are supposed to believe. Even Hilary Clinton acknowledges that we are now living a constitutional crisis because so many do not believe Biden was legitimately elected.

Many politicians, including Republicans, are afraid. They are afraid for their careers but more sinister, they are afraid for their freedom. Those who protested the election results for an election that was not run according to many states’ laws went to the Capitol on January 6th hoping that there was one last chance that the electoral count process allowed for objections if made in writing, and signed by both a Senator and a Representative, and if election fraud evidence was presented during the ensuing debate(evidence that our courts never saw and heard because “standing” to sue was denied), reason demanded that something would be done that could rectify the preposterous election outcome.

Irony of all ironies, a couple of the members on the illegitimately constituted, Pelosi, witch-hunt committee objected to the electoral counting process in earlier elections. It could be done again. That was clear. And it was a legitimate process as specified by our Constitution.

Pelosi quickly called for Cruz to be accused of treason when he rose to object to the counting of AZ electors. Our “in” Justice Department rounded up many January 6th protesters and rounded up hundreds more in the ensuing months, and many of these Trump supporters are now political prisoners, incarcerated without due process. The goal was to prosecute them for sedition, or seditious conspiracy, but many are simply accused of trespassing, or inadvertently, by their presence in the thousands, obstructing a governmental process.

These Americans are being detained and prosecuted as a warning to all of us to “stand down” when it comes to uncovering, and decrying the election fraud of 2020. And why not instill fear in our Senators and Representatives too? I am horrified that a man with an honorable military background was stripped of his newly attained position in a state legislature and sentenced to three months in prison.

Jan 6 prisoners in DC Gulag

Pelosi accused Senator Ted Cruz of treason to instill fear among our Republicans in Congress? And Paul Gosar was the Representative who objected to the tabulation of illegitimate electoral votes just prior to the entry into the Capitol of hundreds of professional agitators (according to the Senate’s Sargeant at Arms, now inexplicably deceased at the young age of 71, ostensibly due to cancer of unknown type), ANTIFA and BLM radicals, Trump supporters, and journalists, many of whom were welcomed and waived in by Capitol police.

This untimely death is eerily reminiscent of Epstein’s, as are several Capitol police officers who committed suicide in the aftermath of January 6th. No word has come out as to the true nature of the pain that caused these suicides. This is odd. It makes me think that their families were bought off and told that their survivors’ benefits, and perhaps generous additional payouts that bought silence, would be forfeited if they came forward with suicide notes, or their personal stories of the turmoil their loved ones endured after being used as political pawns.

In conclusion, Jovan Pulitzer reported that there is now an Ap called “votifynow” into which election anomalies witnessed by everyday Americans can be entered, described, and documented. Photos of individuals wearing rubber gloves and dropping six ballots into a dropbox at 3 a.m., and photos of license plates of people collecting dozens of ballots from nursing homes, or from the reservations of Native Americans can be uploaded into votifynow. Launched just 7 weeks ago, Americans have begun reporting what they saw that they know or suspect, was illegal voting activity, or questionable election procedures like sending a dozen ballots to a residence that housed only two citizens.

The existence and use of such an Ap will, hopefully, thwart widespread cheating in 2022. Perhaps the reporting by patriotic Americans of what they witnessed in 2020 will be used to prosecute election crimes. It is our duty to be vigilant and to volunteer or work the 2022 election. If you did not vote in recent elections, check online to see the record that exists of your voting history. Report any erroneous results on votifynow.

I noted a couple of months ago that my own election office in California was seeking an employee, no high school diploma necessary, to be employed and tasked with coordinating the staffing of polling locations and operating a scanner, but signature verification was not listed as a job task.

My elderly neighbors have lived in the same home for nearly 30 years, but they told me they received four ballots for a recent election. I received an ex-roommate’s ballot for the 2020 election, and she had moved out five years earlier. I did not return this to the Post Office or to the Elections Office as undelivered, because I did not want it to fall into the cesspool of phantom voters. I did not receive her ballot for the Gubernatorial recall election. I am waiting to see how many ballots I receive for the November 2022 Midterm Election.

Nevada Certifies Primary Election Despite Multiple Claims of Election Fraud and Law That Allows for Nullification

Nevada certifies what many consider to be an illegitimate primary election

Nevada’s recent primary was highly suspicious from start to finish. Yet, here it stands certified.

By Nevada law, the validity of the recent primary election should have been nullified. This is due to over two and a half hours of voters and poll watchers, each with only three minutes allotted to them to speak, testifying as to the ballot mistakes, machine errors, and other issues which cast doubt on the legitimacy of the primary.

Dropbox in Clark County, Nevada

The issues raised, many affirmed by a multitude of witnesses, included: poll watchers not being allowed (despite a court order) to watch the counting due to having their vision obscured by workers; 44,000 voters being unable to vote in either party’s primary due to a system “glitch” marking them as non-partisan; boxes being loaded and unloaded without proper observation after watchers were sent home; mail-in ballots being received by homes for people who have either not lived there in years or never lived there; visible and illegal markings on ballot envelopes displaying precinct number and party.

In the case of the last issue, Republican voters’ envelopes were publicly announced and sent to designated machines or boxes.

After hours of testimony, the Election Czar Joe Gloria did not address the issues. Instead, he declared that the election should be certified, despite the Nevada law allowing for it to be nullified due to many corroborated errors and other issues.

It was not just the process of the primary that was suspicious either. So were the outcomes.

Nevada GOP leader Michael McDonald continuously pushed RINO candidates such as Adam Laxalt for Senate and Joe Lombardo for Governor, both of whom won despite internal polling showing that their grassroots competitors were in the lead up to the primary.

McDonald is currently under FBI investigation.

Nevada is just one of many states which have experienced strange happenings and suspicious activity in their primary. In Pennsylvania, votes were counted far later than is typical. In Michigan, candidates were being purged en masse.

Yet somehow demanding election integrity for free and fair elections has RINOs and Democrats calling you a conspiracy theorist.

Plan by Dirty Trick Democrats to Keep Outspoken Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert From Winning Re-Election Is Exposed

Democrats in Colorado and elsewhere infiltrate Republican primaries to stop America first candidates

Democrat voters in Representative Lauren Boebert’s Colorado district and other locations across the country have begun to change their voter registrations to either unaffiliated or, in some instances, Republican. Why?  To influence Republican primaries.

By registering in such ways, Democrats gain access to Republican primaries where they can vote against America first candidates. And that is precisely what they are doing in Colorado’s 3rd district, home of Rep. Lauren Boebert.

Representative Boebert is an outspoken Trump ally and a strong America-first voice in the House. Naturally, that makes her a target for the Democrats. Her primary challenger, whom Democrat infiltrators have rallied behind, State Senator Don Coram, is a RINO–making him a perfect ally for the current Democrat regime. He is also a very weak candidate, having raised only a fraction of what Rep. Boebert has in his late-start bid.

Nevertheless, thousands of Democrats desperate to sabotage Rep. Boebert have changed affiliation to vote for Coram in the primary.

This strategy has already been proven effective, as over 5,400 absentee and early votes in the Republican primary for Rep. Madison Cawthorn’s district came from previous Democrat voters, and Rep. Cawthorn lost by fewer than 1,500 votes.

Similarly, 67,000 previously registered Democrat voters in Georgia voted in the Republican Primary, where Georgia SoS Raffensperger avoided a runoff with less than 27,000 votes.

Democrats will stoop to any level to sabotage America-first candidates. When not committing outright voter fraud (although there is no guarantee there) or suspiciously purging candidates as in Michigan, they will change party registrations to sabotage the primaries and claim that it is fair.

Imagine what Democrats would have done if Tulsi Gabbard had won the nomination in 2020 due to a large swathe of Republican voters, hypothetically, swarming the Democrat primaries.

This is what the Democrats are doing to Republican primaries today.

BREAKING: Texas GOP Declares Joe Biden As Illegitimate “We Reject The Certified Results Of The 2020 Presidential Election”

Texas Republicans met at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston this week to set the party’s agenda for the 2022 election and to discuss the issues of the day, such as election integrity, immigration, gun control, and the economy.

The more conservative grassroots set the tone for the convention, rebuking Senator John Cornyn (R-Tx.) for his stance on gun control and taking a significant stand on the 2020 election, where convention attendees passed a resolution saying that Joe Biden was not ‘legitimately elected.’

The Texas Tribune Reports–

Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tx.) being booed at the Republican Convention

 

“Meeting at their first in-person convention since 2018, Texas Republicans on Saturday acted on a raft of resolutions and proposed platform changes to move their party even further to the right.

They approved measures declaring that President Joe Biden “was not legitimately elected” and rebuking Sen. John Cornyn for taking part in bipartisan gun talks. They also voted on a platform that declares homosexuality “an abnormal lifestyle choice” and calls for Texas schoolchildren “to learn about the humanity of the preborn child.”

The actions capped a convention that highlighted how adamantly opposed the party’s most active and vocal members are to compromising with Democrats or moderating on social positions, even as the state has grown more diverse and Republicans’ margins in statewide elections have shrunk slightly in recent years.”

Cornyn was met with boos after he took took the stage to justify his support of gun control legislation that would expand background checks for gun owners younger than 21 and provide funds to “red flag” laws that currently exist in 19 states.

The convention also passed a pro-life resolution that would require Texas students to learn about the “humanity of the preborn child” and teach that life begins at fertilization.

A resolution that calls for the abolition of the Federal Reserve was also passed at the convention.

The agenda was a massive victory for grassroots conservatives in Texas who have long believed the Republican Party is too moderate on immigration and social issues, among other things.

Jim Hoft of The Gateway Pundit and Patty McMurray of 100 Percent Fed Up Talk Election Fraud During Special Guest Appearance In Cedar, MI On Saturday...Here Are The Details

Jim Hoft, founder of the Gateway Pundit, and Patty McMurray, founder of 100 Percent Fed Up, will travel to Cedar, MI, where they will appear as guests at a fundraiser for MI State Rep. candidate Heather Cerone (R). Heather, a pro-Trump, pro-election integrity candidate, is running against an incumbent RINO who doesn’t believe election fraud was an issue in the 2020 election.

The conservative news publishers, who have been working together on several projects to expose the crimes committed by the Left in the 2020 election, will show footage obtained from the Detroit absentee ballot drop boxes that Gateway Pundit obtained through a FOIA request. The Michigan Conservatives 4 Election Integrity (MC4EI) group has been painstakingly pouring through an enormous amount of footage from 17 of the satellite voting centers in Detroit. They have uncovered multiple incidents of individuals depositing stacks of ballots into drop boxes. In the state of Michigan, an individual is only allowed to drop their own absentee ballot into the drop box and/or the ballots of an immediate family member. Either these individuals have extremely large families, or something is going on that needs to be investigated by the authorities.

Heather Cerone knows first-hand how dirty the Left can be; she used to be one of them years ago. Her conservative mother, who is now deceased, had a significant influence on Heather and helped her become the outspoken conservative she is today. Heather, who refers to herself as a “Mama bear,” is running for Michigan House of Representatives in the 103rd District because she, like many parents, is concerned about her daughter’s future.

“Mama bear” Heather Cerone and her teenage daughter

The lockdowns influenced Heather’s decision to run for office. “I had enough of Michiganders’ lives and livelihoods being destroyed by draconian lockdowns that destroyed family businesses, isolated elderly loved ones from their families all while dying because Governor Whitmer was housing COVID patients in their care facilities.”

“I’m running because I have seen enough of the increased taxes and regulations that are hurting families and businesses. I’m running to address where the millions of COVID relief dollars went, to address further the unemployment funds lost to fraud while innocent Michiganders are being required to pay back their legitimate unemployment earnings and not only to address the fixing of the damn roads but as importantly further revealing the fraud that took place in our 2020 election,” Cerone says.

“In November 2020, after the election that was not honest, free, fair, and transparent, when Michigan’s draconian Governor locked down the restaurants for the 2nd time, I organized a meeting between business owners and citizens to join in supporting one another. With over 400 people coming to the meetings – I founded Citizens Liberating Michigan. I led people to learn about the U.S. and Michigan Constitutions, to take action in our communities, or transparent and Michigan’s draconian Governor locked down the restaurants for the 2nd time, I organized a meeting between business owners and citizens with the purpose of joining together in support of one another. We had over 400 people attending the meetings, and that is when I founded Citizens Liberating Michigan (CLM). Through the founding of CLM, I have led others to learn about the U. S. and Michigan Constitutions and to take action in our communities.”

“For the last year, I led a group of concerned citizens to attend our local school board meetings to fight the Critical Race Theory and the abusive masking of our children in our schools. I believe our children should be taught classical education with the true history and founding of our great country.”

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: GOP Election Worker ARRESTED For Not Wearing Face Mask During Training Session At Former TCF Center Where Face Masks Are NOT Mandatory!

DIRTY DETROIT ELECTION OFFICIALS ARE AT IT AGAIN…

The 2020 election put the former TCF Center on the map after dirty Detroit election officials were exposed for thug tactics that were used against GOP poll watchers to threaten and intimidate them.

The TCF Center has now been renamed Huntington Place.

In 2020, on the day after the election, GOP poll challengers were bullied, shouted down, and followed around the room by outside agitators. They were arrested and removed from the TCF Center by Detroit Police officers many times for not adhering to made-up rules by supervisors. There were no actions taken against Democrat poll challengers or outside agitators who appeared to be brought in to help Detroit election workers threaten GOP poll challengers and take them off their game.

Many of the GOP poll challengers left the TCF Center the day after the election on their own accord over safety concerns, while the majority of GOP poll challengers who left for lunch were locked out of the counting area. Inside the counting room, Democrats had a section with tables and chairs where their poll challengers and outside agitators could get water and food. The GOP poll challengers had to go upstairs to a room designated for the workers on the 2nd floor. When they arrived back at the counting room from lunch, they discovered the door to the counting room had been chained shut. Cardboard pizza boxes from the tables where Democrat poll challengers and outside agitators had just finished their lunch were used to cover the windows into the counting area so they couldn’t see into the room.

Of the small group of GOP poll challengers who remained in the counting room, several were eventually thrown out or arrested as paid election workers stood up and cheered. Many of the GOP poll challengers left on their own accord after an exhausting day of being forced to stand on a cold cement floor with no chairs available to them and afraid to leave the room over the fear of being refused entry back inside.

In 2020, hundreds of GOP volunteers applied to become election workers at the TCF Center in 2020, but most were rejected, as the applicants were forced to identify their party affiliation on the questionnaire.

In 2022, Republicans demanded they receive equal representation at the counting tables. More Republicans were allowed to train to become election workers this time, but as a condition, election workers were asked to adhere to arbitrary non-scientific guidelines around mask-wearing and COVID testing.

I spoke with a Republican who prefers to remain anonymous over safety concerns, who attended the training yesterday at Huntington Place. Although he was the first person in the room, he was given a spot at the counting table where he would play a minimal role, while a woman who was several spots behind him in line was placed at the critical location at the table where the authenticity of the ballots was confirmed. According to our source, 10 GOP election workers walked out of the training session two days ago after election supervisors bullied them for not wearing face masks.

In 2020, election supervisors threatened workers and had them removed for violating a 6-foot social distancing rule which prevented workers from getting close enough to see the ballots. Will the mask-wearing threat be the dirty Dems by their new tactic to remove GOP election workers in 2022?

In addition to forcing workers to wear useless face masks that even airlines no longer require, the City of Detroit Dept. of Elections is forcing trained election workers to provide a negative COVID test result from a reliable source. It will refuse COVID test results from home test kits. Because apparently, a negative result from a reliable testing center on June 29, as a condition to work on August 2nd (34 days later), will suffice.

Yesterday, an unidentified male Republican was arrested at the Huntington Place (formerly the TCF Center in Detroit) for refusing to wear a mask. According to the Detroit Police officers who arrested him (sadly, it appears that the Detroit Police will once again be doing the bidding of crooked Detroit Election thug supervisors in 2022).

“Why do you refuse to wear a mask?” one of the Detroit Police officers asks. “Just asking,” the police officer says. “Do you have a specific reason?’

The GOP election trainee doesn’t appear to answer any of his questions.

One of the Detroit Police officers explains why they can arrest him: “Well, this is private property. So they can institute any policy that they want, and their policy is to wear a mask. So you have to abide by their policy. If you don’t, you’ll be trespassing, which means you’ll go to jail for trespassing.”

Another police officer asks, “Do you want to do that? Or would you like to walk out of the training”

Another officer chimes in, “But you gotta wear a mask.”

“Well, I’m not gonna wear a mask,” the GOP election trainee responds.

“So, what do you want to do?” the Detroit cop asks. “I’ve given you two options. If you want the training, you’ll stay and wear a mask,” he explains.

“That’s intimidation,” the GOP election trainee responds.

“That’s not intimidation,” the Detroit Police officer snaps back, adding, “It’s private property. That’s all it is.”

“Is that part of your training?” that Detroit cop asks, as he appears to be pointing to something on the table.

“It says you have to be vaccinated,” the GOP election trainee responds.

“Okay, are you vaccinated?” the cop asks.

“No,” the trainee responds.

“Then what are you doing here?” the Detroit cop asks.

“Trying to be trained,” he responds.

Why is the Detroit cop asking him if he’s vaccinated and why is he working there if he’s not vaccinated???

“Do you want to walk out on your own accord, or do you want to go with us,” the same police officer asks.

The trainee says he wants to stay and do the training, but the Detroit Police officer tells him, “It’s past that. We already gave you the option to sit down and do the training with the mask. You’re gonna be trespassing if you don’t leave now. You either leave on your own accord, or you leave in handcuffs.”

“Which is it?” the cop asks, as they turn him around and place the handcuffs on his wrists.

Curiously, none of the 3 Detroit Police officers arresting the GOP trainee are wearing masks. 

Watch the unbelievable scene unfold here:

The GOP election worker was being arrested for “trespassing” because he was “on private property,” but we checked with the Huntington Place events office where the training was being held and confirmed by phone and on their website that there are currently no mask mandates in place within their facility.

The Huntington Place website clearly states that they “highly recommend” masks but do NOT require them.

Similarly, Wayne County recommends wearing a mask during times when COVID numbers are high and specifically suggests people with symptoms, a positive test, or exposure to someone with COVID19 wear a mask.

So, if the Huntington Place and Wayne County don’t mandate masks, why would the Detroit Police arrest a GOP worker for not wearing a face mask?

Sarah Palin Shocks Critics With Alaska Special Election Primary Results

Sarah Palin has advanced to the Alaska House Special Election to replace Don Young

Sarah Palin, former Governor of Alaska and Republican VP nominee in 2008, has successfully advanced to the special general election to replace the late Representative Don Young, who passed away in March, in Alaska. Palin made her intention to run clear several months ago, and has now taken first place in a free-for-all primary which included dozens of candidates.

Her main competition is Nick Begich, a GOP candidate who earned the second place run-off spot and who aims to fill the slot of an establishment candidate. Begich comes from an Alaskan Democrat political family.

The general election is a four-candidate, ranked choice voting system in which the candidate with the least amount of first-choice votes will be eliminated and have their votes reallocated to the second choice.

Although this type of voting system is considered by many to favor more moderate candidates, the Trump-endorsed Sarah Palin did gain the first-place slot in the general election after finishing with the most votes in the primary. As such, she certainly has an excellent chance of filling Rep. Young’s vacant seat.

Palin, who is dubbed by many as a GOP firebrand, would further tip the House Republicans towards a pro-Trump, America First majority if she successfully wins the general election in the anticipated red wave.

Her endorsement by President Trump, exemplary record as Governor, and her name recognition, have served her in her ability to gather the most votes in a crowded primary field.

White House Press Secretary LAUGHS at Reelection Concerns over Biden’s Health: “That is not a question we should even be asking”

Karine Jean-Pierre dismisses CNN’s Don Lemon when asked about Biden’s health and stamina going into 2024

Joe Biden is the oldest person to have been sworn into his stolen office, and by inauguration day in January of 2025 he would be 82 years old–as old as decrepit Pelosi currently is.

Of course, Biden has also shown himself to be mentally feeble and incompetent at every step of the way since he began running in 2019. He’s also found himself caught on camera falling, stumbling, and shuffling like he has forgotten how to walk or climb stairs. Naturally, people are wondering how he’ll even finish out this term, let alone make it through another four years.

Yet according to Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, not only is there no cause for concern, but it’s not a question you should dare to even ask.

Upon being asked by CNN’s Don Lemon whether Biden has the mental and physical stamina to be fit for office in 2024, Jean-Pierre responded with feigned shock and laughter.

“Don, you’re asking me this question,” she exclaimed. “Oh my gosh. He’s the president of the United States.”

She then laughed and stated that at 47 she sometimes has trouble keeping up with geriatric Biden.

“That is not a question that we should be even asking,” she continued. “Just look at the work he does. And look how he’s delivering for the American public.”

Jean-Pierre also shrugged off the New York Times report about Biden’s declining mental faculties as “hearsay” and “not what we care about.”

Recently, a number of top Democrats stated that they believe Biden should not run in 2024. They cited his failures in policy, unpopularity, as well as his health and his age as reason.

Despite this, however, Jean-Pierre reaffirmed Biden’s intention to run again in 2024.

But when even woke Don Lemon is concerned, you know things are bad.

“2000 Mules” Investigator Gregg Phillips Reveals Stunning “Geofeedia” Tracking App That Follows Every Move You Make On Social Media...Is This Part of Massive 2020 Election Bombshell He’s About To Drop?

True the Vote Investigator Gregg Phillips drops a hint about an app used to track your every movement on social media, in anticipation of a massive July bombshell 2020 election reveal…

Last week, Greg Phillips, lead investigator of True the Vote clashed with “moron” Fox News Host Sandra Smith after she attempted to claim that 2000 Mules was “Debunked” a la “fact-checkers” at Reuters and that 150 Republican members of congress are “conspiracy theorists” for their election claims.

Gregg Phillips and Catherine Engelbrecht

Phillips shared this message on Truth Social with Fox News with a direct challenge to their disinformation campaign about the credibility of the research behind the 2000 Mules movie. “Game on boys and girls,” he wrote.

For several weeks, Phillips has been dropping hints about a multi-national voting scandal that is even more significant than 2000 Mules. He and True the Vote founder Catherine Engelbrecht have promised to drop the bombshell in July.

Watch Gregg explain here:

Geofencing was placed around absentee ballot boxes in key states and in key areas by Gregg and Catherine in order to catch the mules. Interestingly, geofencing was also placed by the FBI, according to Phillips, around the Capitol just before the January 6th protests.

Previously, Gregg Phillips and True the Vote founder Catherine Engelbrecht explained how easy it is to collect a device’s ID and private information using geolocation tracking data. Now, Phillips is explaining how Geofeedia-like apps and firms were used to set up a geo-fence around the Capitol on January 6th.

“The January 6th event was on a Tuesday. The next day, they had allegedly already identified some of the people, convened a grand jury, and then issued arrest warrants in a matter of 72 hours,” Phillips said. Engelbrecht interrupted, “It’s not possible.”

“So, did they have the fence of the pings ready to go? Is that what you’re saying?” Kirk asked.

“They had the actual devices ready to go,” Phillips said. “That’s our supposition. There’s no other way to have done it,” Englelbrecht added.

Phillips then dropped a bombshell, “We believe they were tracking people all the way back into the latter part of the election, certainly into November and early December.” Kirk asked, “So, people who would be likely to go to that event? Is that correct?” Phillips responded, “Yes.” Engelbrecht elaborated, “And people meeting that profile. And they [US intelligence] were tuned up and ready.”

But then, probably the night before, they’d be able to say, ‘Hey, 200,000 of our profiles are in town.’ Right? So they’d be like, ‘They’re around. We weren’t wrong.’”

With the current Truth Social posting by Gregg about Geofeedia, it appears that Gregg is dropping breadcrumbs along the way to the upcoming bombshell reveal in July.

In anticipation of the shocking reveal, here is more background leading into the current surveillance state and how the election was stolen.

In 2016 it was revealed that firms such as Geofeedia and a multitude of others had been using their commercial access to consumer data on social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook to aid law enforcement, intelligence services, and the military in surveillance. Not just in the United States, mind you, but worldwide.

While Twitter and Facebook claimed to have terminated Geofeedia’s access to the data, they never stated if they had done the same with other licensees. Additionally, they claimed to have no knowledge of what Geofeedia and others were doing with the data they obtained, despite the fact that Geofeedia was very open about their intelligence and law enforcement connections and was a well-known company. This makes it improbably that big tech was not colluding with them, or at least complicit with it.

However, with such a vast number of firms having access to “private” consumer data on Facebook and Instagram, it would be an impossible task for the two companies to monitor everything that the firms were doing even if they chose to do so, which they have not.

Although Facebook and Twitter claimed to have pulled the plug on Geofeedia, the many other data collection firms which provide your private information to the FBI, CIA, NSA, DHS, local law enforcement, and anyone else who asks are all very much alive and well.

Gregg Phillips, of True the Vote, began using Geofeedia around a decade ago for various projects.

In August 2014 he had access to messages, locations and timestamps from all over through using Geofeedia.
