kallend 2,027 #601 November 29, 2020 Documents prepared as part of the Dane County, Wisconsin, recount showed that the Trump campaign’s own lead attorney in Wisconsin, James Troupis, had voted both early and in person. He essentially argued that his own vote was illegal and should not be counted. Troupis did not respond to requests for comment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfriverjoe 1,523 #602 November 29, 2020 The Trump campaign paid $3 million for the partial recount in WI (Dane & Milwaukee counties, where Madison & Milwaukee are). It resulted in a change of 132 total votes in Milwaukee County (out of 460k total votes, an error of 0.0287%)... In Biden's favor. So Trump paid approximately $22,700 for each vote added to Biden's total. Dane County has yet to report it's results. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wolfriverjoe 1,523 #610 December 2, 2020 Well, Sidney Powell has certainly "Released the Kraken" in another lawsuit. Apparently she claims that Biden received more than 100% of the vote in Edison County MI. Which is impossible for two reasons: 1- He can't get more votes than were counted. 2- There ISN'T an "Edison County" in Michigan. https://www.salon.com/2020/11/30/sidney-powells-new-lawsuit-claiming-election-fraud-cites-a-witness-from-a-place-that-doesnt-exist_partner/?fbclid=IwAR2jVHvTzQMGDv390ugM6OvLWi4LRV3XQw-jrKPibqdlkJNhh2aKkpaIT9Q So the "Kraken" is her level of stupidity?

yoink 321 #612 December 2, 2020 She's also misspelled 'District' TWICE (in two different ways) in the title on the first page of her Georgia complaint, along with stating that the state's certification of its Dominion equipment is "undated" while providing an obviously cropped version of the document as evidence. Just another inept, unprofessional and amoral lawyer associated with the Trump campaign. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jakee 1,489 #613 December 2, 2020 (edited) Just shows how panicked the Deep State are at what she's finding out. Imagine the effort it took to hide all evidence of Edison County so quickly! Seriously though, this is odd. At one point she was if not a prodigy, at least an exceptional student and highly successful lawyer. WaPo did an article on her where multiple former friends and colleagues were quoted as saying very similar things along the lines of "I don't recognise any part of this woman as the person I used to know." Apparently she had a major disappointment in a case against an AGs department 10 or 15 years ago, I wouldn't be surprised if she had either a mental breakdown or serious drug problem as a result to have sunk so low.

jakee 1,489 #615 December 3, 2020 Lol, brilliant. "I just learned of absolute incontrovertible evidence of North Korean boats delivering ballots through a harbor in Maine, the state of Maine," Stone said. "If this checks out, if law enforcement looked into that and it turned out to be true, it would be proof of foreign involvement in the election." Christmas gift ideas for Roger Stone: 1: A flaming bag of poo. 2: A dictionary with the meaning of the word “incontrovertible” underlined. 3: Another flaming bag of poo.

wolfriverjoe 1,523 #616 December 3, 2020 Haven't seen it here, so here goes. Michael Flynn, who pled guilty to lying to the FBI about meeting illegally with Russian diplomats and was pardoned by Trump has made an interesting statement. He wants Trump to suspend the Constitution, silence the media, declare "Martial Law" and have the military oversee a national revote. Really. That meets the definition of 'Sedition'. Of course, the military has shown quite clearly that their loyalty is to the country. And they take the oath to 'Uphold the Constitution" is something they take seriously. On a somewhat similar note, WI Senator Ron Johnson, a staunch Trump stooge, has admitted privately that he knows full well Biden won, but is refusing to admit it publicly because the Trumpettes are refusing to and he doesn't want to alienate them. https://thebulwark.com/my-call-with-ron-johnson-he-knows-biden-won-but-wont-admit-it/?fbclid=IwAR2x-e71jj0xNK6egtCeUrG8wJtln08oMBrtq3RKgoZHTPQLuBJkkkvlzjs The article is written by the former Republican party chair for Brown County (where Green Bay is located). In the article, he talks about how they discussed the R opposition to Trump: Quote We spoke of organizations such as the Lincoln Project and Republican Voters Against Trump. Johnson said that he loathed these organizations because “they are money-grubbing pieces of shit.” Funny how Johnson thinks that of the Lincoln project, yet is silent on the blatant con of Trumps 'election defense fund'.

gowlerk 2,192 #617 December 3, 2020 Today's headline Trump story is his threat to run again in 2024. The most crazy part of that is the R party is in such a mess that he probably could get the nomination. Even though with all the advantages of incumbency the was rejected by the deep electorate in favour of Sleepy Joe. The other party leaders must be going out of their minds.

That can lead one to think that the madness is going away - but it's really just going somewhere else. And maybe that's how this ends.

RonD1120 62 #623 December 4, 2020 Public information phase ongoing now. Justice phase coming. AG Barr story regarding no election fraud is a made up story by the AP. No source links available. Amendment XII of the U.S. Constitution does not require that electors be chosen by popular vote. They are chosen by state legislators. Make your calendars for 8 & 12 Dec, important dates. If the Electoral College fails to choose the president and vice president the election then goes to the House of Representative, one state, one vote. The GOP own the states. The Senate would determine the vice president. The GOP holds the majority there as well. There are other strategic scenarios that could come into play. Seventy-four million or more American Patriots are angry and not giving up the fight. Remember the U.S. Constitution is the bottom line authority.

Eighty one million American patriots fixed the current problem in the White House via democratic means. They will not stand idly by and let Trump steal the election. Which is why every single court case Trump has launched to try to steal the election has failed. Which is why Barr stated there was no fraud. Which is why even FOX News has called the election for Biden. Quote Remember the U.S. Constitution is the bottom line authority. You are absolutely right.
