Board Refuses to Certify Wayne County Michigan (Detroit) Election Results

Published November 17, 2020 at 7:02pm

The Wayne County, Michigan Board of Canvassers deadlocked on a 2-2 party line vote on whether to certify the results of the November 3 elections, with the two Republican members refusing to approve the vote because of poll books that did not match vote tallies. Wayne County includes the city of Detroit where most of the problems occurred. According to the current count, Joe Biden leads President Trump by just under 150,000 votes statewide.

The next step will be for the state board of elections to review the Wayne County results and decide on whether to certify the votes. The state board is likewise made up of two Republican and two Democrats. If that board deadlocks, then it would go to the Republican state legislature. (Process explained here.)

Excerpt from the Detroit News on the issues with Wayne County:

    The Wayne County Board of Canvassers deadlocked 2-2 Tuesday along party lines on whether the county’s Nov. 3 election results should be certified as at least four state and federal lawsuits sought to stop the process.

    The decision came after absentee ballot poll books at 70% of Detroit’s 134 absentee counting boards were found to be out of balance without explanation. The mismatches varied anywhere from one to more than four votes.

    In August, canvassers found 72% of Detroit’s absentee voting precincts didn’t match the number of ballots cast. The imbalances between August and November are not an exact comparison since August’s canvassing was based on results from 503 precincts and November’s canvassing was based on 134 counting boards.

    Advertisement - story continues below

    The situation in August and earlier imbalances in 2016 were not enough to keep the same board from certifying the results in the August and November 2016.

    …Chairwoman Monica Palmer, a Republican, defended the decision, “Based on what I saw and went through in poll books in this canvass, I believe that we do not have complete and accurate information in those poll books,” she said.

    …Detroit had problems with precinct count mismatches in the November 2016 election. Election officials couldn’t reconcile vote totals for 59% of precincts in the city during a countywide canvass of vote results with most of the issues involving too many votes.

Michigan GOP Chairman Laura Cox issued a statement on Wayne County:

    “The people of Michigan deserve to know what happened in Wayne County on Election Day and the days following. I am proud that, due to the efforts of the Michigan Republican Party, the Republican National Committee and the Trump Campaign, enough evidence of irregularities and potential voter fraud was uncovered resulting in the Wayne County Board of Canvassers refusing to certify their election results. This action will allow more time for us to get to the bottom of these deeply troubling irregularities. The people of Michigan deserve fair, open and transparent elections, and we will continue to fight for just that.”

An observer posted their observation on Wayne County:

Michigan’s Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson claims no votes were improperly cast or tabulated, “Michigan’s Bureau of Elections stands ready to fulfill its duty to complete the canvas for Wayne County, address any clerical errors and improve the quality of the canvass overall. Importantly, this is not an indication that any votes were improperly cast or tabulated.”

Everything's Just Peachy in Georgia

Short article from a short temper.

Georgia 'finds' 2,600 uncounted votes
President Trump gains hundreds in results from just 1 county

(WASHINGTON EXAMINER) -- ATLANTA — A hand recount of the presidential race in Georgia's closely watched election audit has turned up 2,600 previously uncounted votes in one county.

"The reason you do an audit is to find this kind of thing," Gabriel Sterling, who oversaw the implementation of the new election system for the secretary of state's office, said Monday night.

President Trump could see a gain of about 800 net votes from the newly discovered ballots in Floyd County.

https://www.wnd.com/2020/11/georgia-finds-2600-uncounted-votes/


So that's a 2-1 win ratio in just one county. Next.

More Votes Found in Georgia: Trump Cuts Biden Lead to Under 13,000

A new batch of votes was found in Georgia Tuesday during the statewide recount in Fayette County, cutting Joe Biden’s lead over President Trump in the state by a reported 449 votes to just under 13,000. The issue today was reported to be a memory card that was not uploaded.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/11/votes-found-georgia-trump-cuts-biden-lead-13000/


Now here's the kicker...

EXPLAINER: Is Georgia’s upcoming ballot ‘audit’ a recount?

ATLANTA (AP) — Georgia says it’s going to be tallying — by hand — nearly 5 million ballots that were cast in its very close presidential election on Nov. 3. But is it a recount? An “audit”? And why are they doing it?

It’s all a bit confusing, but election experts say what’s happening in Georgia is unlikely to change the outcome and are warning that discrepancies in the final vote count are likely. That doesn’t mean anything nefarious happened. Experts say some discrepancies are expected when so many votes are counted a second time using an entirely different method — hand versus machine.

IS THIS AN OFFICIAL RECOUNT?

No. State election officials have said this is not a recount, but rather a post-election audit.

The main difference between the two: A recount is typically tied to a close margin in an election, whereas post-election audits are routine and used by states to ensure that equipment and procedures counting the vote all worked properly.

So when the Secretary of State got up and said there would be an audit and hand-recount of every ballot, he was lying. This was only a random sample to test some of the Dominion machines, and check some ballots to see if everything worked properly.

https://wtop.com/national/2020/11/explainer-is-georgias-upcoming-ballot-audit-a-recount/


So in other words, Georgia is wasting everyone's time and presenting the false appearance that everything is just peachy in the Georgia election.

But we can all see the rot. First it was 2,600 votes found that weren't counted, and now 2,755 found that weren't counted. And these ballots that were left out initially are for Trump in the majority. 800 gain from the first batch, 400 gain in the second.

Now what about the third? The fourth? Fifth? Fiftieth?

Do you see what is going on here? This is a fake audit and fake recount. This is a tiny fraction of an overview process. This is baby shit. And yet even this slight scratching of the surface is revealing hundreds of votes that were for Trump, but were left aside and NOT counted.

HOW MANY OTHER COUNTIES DID THIS HAPPEN IN?!

Why are Georgia election officials trying to hide their fraud and downplay these new results?

It's because they know Georgia's honest recount of verified ballots would show a completely different election, and that would set off every other swing state that had similar irregularities, and used the same rigged machines and software, and relied on the same non-secure mail-in ballots!

Believe it!

UPDATED: Thanks to Gross Prophet for pointing this out.

A THIRD batch of ballots has been found to have been uncounted. Again, with a massive Trump ratio. The batch is smaller than the previous two, but this is proof that the more they look, the more election fraud they find. And the fraud is always in Biden's favor.

Trump Pulls Troops Out of Harm's Way, and the Usual Suspects Freak the Heck Out


Article by Bonchie in RedState
 

Trump Pulls Troops Out of Harm's Way, and the Usual Suspects Freak the Heck Out

If you’ve followed any of my time here at RedState over the years, you know that I’m probably least traditionally Republican when it comes to foreign policy. My appetite for 20 year wars ran out long ago, and while I’m nowhere near an isolationist, I do believe that our leaders should have to articulate why we need to continue fighting in places like Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria.

Unfortunately, the status quo has continually won out over the years, with those that want to leave being subjected to scrutiny instead of the foreign policy establishment having to explain why we need to stay and at what cost.

Today, Donald Trump busted that narrative wide open, ordering large troop withdrawals from Afghanistan and Iraq. This set off the usual suspects, many of whom are on the right and continue to adhere to an ineffective, Bush-era school of thought.

 

 

Ben Sasse is the epitome of what’s wrong with the Republican Party. I realize that assertion is going to give some seizures simply by reading it, as any suggestion that Sasse isn’t the perfect conservative specimen often draws ire from the right-wing commentariat. Yet, Sasse has never sponsored and passed a bill of note. He’s made his mark with platitudes that sound like something Karl Rove wrote while on the toilet. There’s nothing impressive about him and this latest statement shows it. Note that there’s zero argument being made by Sasse for why we should keep these wars going. Instead, it’s a mid-2000s Mad Lib. All that’s missing is “surrender monkey.”

Meanwhile, Mitt Romney did Mitt Romney things in response.

 

 

Read that and really think about how insane it is. We should not be at war by default. If Romney wants to stay in these conflicts, he should be laying out in detail exactly why we need to do so and for how long. Instead, in typical Washington style, we get this idiocy about not fighting wars on a calendar. It’s been 20 years. Yes, it’s probably time to start looking at the calendar and asking if there are strategic interests left that outweigh the costs.

Of course, it wasn’t just Republicans who showed their tails. Here’s Tammy Duckworth making no sense at all.

 

 

You got that? If we pull our troops out, that’s sending them home in body bags. But if we leave them there to die, that’s fine or something. I’ve got to give it to Democrats. It must be really difficult to be this confused and fake all the time. The left-wing position was to bring the troops home a decade ago. Yet, they can’t dare agree with the bad orange man, so Duckworth has to do this ridiculous dance where she pretends she wants a withdrawal, just not “this” withdrawal.

Lastly, I’ll note that the media full court press is also on. Here’s Fox News pumping up a small scale rocket attack and trying to spin it as proof that Trump’s pull-out is somehow dangerous.

 

 

Well, that changes everything. Sign me up for 20 more years of war because some two-bit militias fired some rockets. Clearly leaving our personnel in harms way is the much smarter play here or something.

Look, my position is simple. You want to keep fighting these wars? Make your case. If you can’t do that, get out of the way.

Pompeo says Europe, U.S. need to work together to address Turkey

 The U.S. administration and Europe need to work jointly on addressing the actions led by Turkey in the Middle East over the past few months, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo told French daily newspaper Le Figaro.

“France’s president Emmanuel Macron and I agree that Turkey’s recent actions have been very aggressive,” Pompeo said, citing Turkey’s recent support to Azerbaijan in the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict with Armenia as well as military moves in Libya and the Mediterranean.

Leftist Hero of the Week Turns Out to be a Sex Offender





Violent Black Lives Matter Goon who Brutally Beat Innocent Trump Supporter Unconscious in DC is Child Sex Offender




By Jim Hoft
Published November 17, 2020


A Trump supporter walking away from the crowd at the Trump March in DC on Saturday was assaulted by a mob of Black Lives Matter thugs.

After one coward hit the man from behind and knocked him down another came up and kicked him in the face.




The man attempted to defend himself, and did well for a few minutes, before he was hit from behind.




One of the animals also gleefully stole his phone as he was down.






Kenneth Wayne Deberry was later arrested by police for the brutal assault Kenneth is a registered child sex offender.

What a shock.

Via The Daily Caller:


A protestor who was arrested after he punched a supporter of President Donald Trump is also a registered child sex offender, public records show.

The Metropolitan Police Department arrested 39-year-old Kenneth Wayne Deberry on Saturday for disorderly conduct, including inciting violence, aggravated assault, and felon in possession of a firearm after police found he was carrying a handgun, according to an MPD press release.

According to the MPD Sex Offender Registry, Deberry is a registered sex offender who was convicted in Washington, D.C. in 2008 of second degree child sexual abuse against a person under 16 years of age.

French 'Jetman' killed in training accident in Dubai





French 'Jetman' killed
in training accident in Dubai


French wingsuit jumper Vince Reffet poses during a photo session in Paris on September 22, 2020


Frenchman Vince Reffet, part of the "Jetman" team which has performed groundbreaking stunts above Dubai using jetpacks and carbon-fibre wings, was killed in a training accident Tuesday, a spokesman said.

The Jetmen have pulled off a series of dramatic flights over the Gulf city, soaring in tandem above the world's tallest building Burj Khalifa and alongside an Emirates Airbus A380, the world's largest commercial airliner.

Stunts elsewhere in the world, including swooping into an aeroplane through a small door in mid-flight, and flying through China's famed "Heaven's Gate" archway in the mountains of Hunan province, drew huge audiences on social media.

"It is with unimaginable sadness that we announce the passing of Jetman Pilot, Vincent (Vince) Reffet, who died this morning, 17 November, during training in Dubai," Jetman Dubai spokesman Abdulla Binhabtoor told AFP.

"Vince was a talented athlete, and a much-loved and respected member of our team. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and all those who knew and worked with him."

The accident, which happened at 36-year-old Reffet's Jetman base in the desert outside the city, is now under investigation.

"We are working closely with all relevant authorities," Binhabtoor said.

Reffet's exploits went viral earlier this year, with video of him taking off from the ground and climbing to 1,800 metres (nearly 6,000 feet) over Dubai's waterfront, in a feat reminiscent of Marvel's "Iron Man".

The Frenchman hovered five metres above the waters of Dubai's coast before shooting off into the air and skimming the city's skyline in the stunt that was hailed as a world first.

The Jetmen had previously launched themselves into the air by jumping down from high platforms.

In an interview with AFP in October, Reffet described the exhilaration of stunts like zooming into the plane flying over the Swiss mountains, which he said left him feeling "sick to your stomach".

"You're not well, it's a mental battle. And then you get on the plane, the project is over, and now you're already thinking about the next project. You're looking for that moment," he said.

"You have so many dreams and life is so short."

Reffet's carbon fibre wings were powered by four mini jet engines. The equipment, which is controlled by the pilot's movements, is capable of reaching speeds of 400 kilometres (250 miles) per hour.

The Jetman team also includes fellow Frenchman Fred Fugen and Emirati pilot Ahmed Alshehhi.

'The Great Reset' Trends on Twitter Because of Eye-Opening ....

'The Great Reset' Trends on Twitter Because of Eye-Opening 

Justin Trudeau Video and the Biden Connection




The “Great Reset” was trending on Twitter yesterday, in part because of a video being spread of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

The clip is actually from a speech he gave in September, but when you listen to it perhaps you’ll see why it has relevance to today as states and cities are talking/threatening about going into a second lockdown due to the Wuhan coronavirus.

Now some might have heard the term “great reset” before and thought it a conspiracy theory but indeed it’s a stated World Economic Forum goal espoused by many world leaders on the left including Trudeau.

Listen as Trudeau lays it out, as he talks about how the pandemic has provided an “opportunity for a reset, this is our chance to accelerate our pre-pandemic efforts to reimagine economic systems that actually address global challenges like extreme poverty, inequality and climate change.”

Here’s the longer video that the clip is from.

So it’s not just about dealing with the virus, it’s about how they can use it as an opportunity to put in everything they want.

Did you notice something else too? These words at the beginning of his remarks: “Building back better.” Now where have we heard that before? Oh, that’s right, that was the slogan of the campaign of Joe Biden. In fact, Joe was pitching that today in front of a backer of the “office of the president-elect” (which doesn’t exist, despite the fact that no state has certified the vote and the Electoral College hasn’t voted, and there are legal challenges underway).

So if you thought those words were just gobbledegook, well, yes they are, but they’re also the slogan for this change that they want to bring. And of course the expression was there before Joe Biden choose it for his campaign so yes, looks like he plagiarized it too.


And he was using it again today trying to pitch what his “administration” would do.

Let’s hear a little more about the reset.

From The Hill:

“Every country, from the United States to China, must participate, and every industry, from oil and gas to tech, must be transformed,” wrote Klaus Schwab, the founder and executive chairman of the World Economic Forum, in an article published on WEF’s website. “In short, we need a ‘Great Reset’ of capitalism.”

Schwab also said that “all aspects of our societies and economies” must be “revamped,” “from education to social contracts and working conditions.”

More?

“We need to design policies to align with investment in people and the environment,” said the general secretary of the International Trade Union Confederation, Sharan Burrow. “But above all, the longer-term perspective is about rebalancing economies.”

One of the main themes of the June meeting was that the coronavirus pandemic has created an important “opportunity” for many of the World Economic Forum’s members to enact their radical transformation of capitalism, which they acknowledged would likely not have been made possible without the pandemic.

“We have a golden opportunity to seize something good from this crisis — its unprecedented shockwaves may well make people more receptive to big visions of change,” said Prince Charles at the meeting, adding later, “It is an opportunity we have never had before and may never have again.”

So it isn’t just about stopping the virus. We’ve already seen here how ‘stopping the virus’ has mushroomed from 15 days to stop the spread which was just supposed to make it possible for our hospitals to deal with the presumed crush on the hospitals. Then it’s lockdown until the line flattens, then it’s we must keep rules in place until we have the vaccine. Now that we are likely to have vaccines very soon. we’re still hearing about the need to keep rules in place and not returning to normal. We’ve seen how easily the power goes to the head of our politicians. More troubling perhaps is we see how people are willing to give up their liberties when they fed a constant diet of fear of the virus and not the scientific reality. So we can see that yes, it’s not hard to imagine what can be shoved through when that’s what politicians are peddling. As they make clear, it’s all about control.

How about no? Capitalism may not be perfect but we’re not selling our freedom down the road for your socialist dreams.

Stand with Trump, Stand for America

The ruling class that the people rejected in 2016 
and which has fought the president for four years 
is out in the open like never before.



More than 70 million Americans are suspicious of this election, but the so-called #Resistance is ready to sweep everything under the rug and move on to the coronation ceremony. We know that if the shoe were on the other foot, if Donald Trump were elected in this irregular manner, the Left would be screaming bloody murder and there would be riots in cities all across the country. They know it, too. They don’t care.

They now demand that we immediately accept the result as the media has called it in the most consequential election in more than 150 years and recognize Joe Biden as America’s puppet king.

As a doctor cures illness, they speak of “healing” the body politic of the disease of Trump and his supporters.

These frauds have spent four years dismissing us all as racist scum and conspiracy theorists while working, day after day, to destroy the president we elected legitimately. They treat half the country as strangers in our own land.

Why should we acquiesce to the demands of people who hate us and who don’t give a damn who or what the people choose?

Prime facie, we have never had an election more opaque or unusual than this. It has been a fraudster’s holiday, a Third World catastrophe, as anyone with honesty and common sense can acknowledge. But no evidence, no logic is enough to satisfy an opposition determined to conclude that our grievances lack merit. They presume the authority to decide what is true or false, and they have decided that they are the good people, and we are the bad; they speak for our democracy, while we have no rightful part in it; they have the power, and we are their rightful subjects.

Despite all the nonsense they put this country through, the derangement about pee tapes and Russian collusion, they nevertheless insist that anyone claiming disenfranchisement is participating in a mass delusion. Convinced of their right to rule, they hope to assert control of the country with propaganda so deafening that any dissenters are demoralized and simply give in.

Donald Trump and the movement he helped spur to action are now all that stand between America and bona fide authoritarianism. We have seen and felt the quiet, steady operation of this power steal over the nation little by little. It now believes that America will soon be under its heel.

We saw it at work in the Biden campaign, which was a corrupt scam and a cynical insult to the American people from the very beginning. Never has a candidate gotten so many lucky breaks, and never have the American people been more manipulated or deceived in choosing their president. With the help of the press and the technology companies that direct the public flow of information, this common swamp rat made it to Election Day without having to account for his family’s conflicts of interest in China, to say nothing of providing the barest sketch of how he would govern the country.

The court scribes who have elevated Biden into America’s demented viceroy-to-be are now ready to write Trump out of the history books as a usurper, and his presidency as an aberration made possible by a momentary spasm of confusion and hate. But four years of pretending that Trump is a transitory phenomenon have not worked. The ruling class was dismayed to be reminded of this on Election Night, when more than 70 million of us showed up and issued a firm veto to their rule.

They can try to steal the election, they can keep working to pathologize us out of social and political existence, but the other half of the country is not magically going to disappear just because they want us to. That much, at least, has to be clear to them now.

Their hatred of this country and the people who love it has never been more obvious. We are up against people who embrace censorship and repression of anyone who questions their authority, who regard our peaceful assembly as a provocation to attack, as we saw in Washington on Saturday.

The dividing line is clear: the ruling class that the people rejected in 2016, that has gone to war with Trump his entire presidency, is out in the open like never before. It is now Trump and his supporters against every powerful interest in the country, which have all united behind Biden in a common ambition to crush Trump and the American people. This moment is the culmination of all their hopes.

We cannot concede. These people are not our friends, they are America’s enemies, and we owe them nothing but our contempt.


There Will Be No Unity: Some Inconvenient Reminders About How...

Some Inconvenient Reminders About How Dems Treated Trump During 2016 Transition




Here we are closing in on two weeks after Election Day, and the mainstream media, Democrats, and even a few Republicans (mostly the usual ones) are predictably demanding President Trump concede the election and graciously assist the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris campaign with the transition process because it’s “traditional” for such peaceful transitions to occur between incoming and outgoing presidential administrations.

Trump is not playing along because among other things his campaign has some legal challenges out there in certain states that are still pending in the courts. In addition to that, the campaign is waiting on the results of the Georgia recount. So naturally, no concessions will be forthcoming while those processes play out.

One has to think, too, that considering the fact there was very little that was “traditional” about the transfer of power from the Obama administration to the Trump administration in 2016, that Trump is taking the opportunity presented to show Democrats what it feels like to be treated as though you aren’t the legitimate winner of the presidential election.

It’s convenient – oh so convenient – at this time for the MSM and the left to memory hole what they did between the fall of 2016 and the early winter of 2017 when the incoming Trump administration was forming and then in the months after as the new team got acclimated and settled into their positions.

The attempt by the Obama-Biden administration to undermine the rival presidential campaign to Hillary Clinton’s by – with Clinton’s apparent help – cooking up a bogus Trump/Russia collusion scandal before, during, and beyond the transition period is one that Republicans won’t forget, no matter how much Democrats and the media would like them to.

But there were other things Democrats underhandedly did during this timeframe that should also not be forgotten as the calls for “unity!” and “healing!” grow. The Washington Times’ Rowan Scarborough wrote an extensive piece Sunday providing detailed reminders of the transition havoc Democrats unleashed on Trump. I’ve excerpted a few below, but there are more at the link that you should read:

• Boycotted the Jan. 20, 2017, inauguration. Fifty-three Democratic members of Congress refused to attend, accusing Mr. Trump of conspiring with Russia to tip the election. Mr. Mueller found no such evidence after nearly a three-year FBI investigation.

• Organized a “resistance” movement. Inside the Democratic-heavy federal bureaucracy, there was talk of leaking to press and stopping new policies. Clinton activists held a postelection strategy session in Miami to fund anti-Trump campaigns.

The resistance cry even reached inside the FBI. A bureau lawyer investigating the Trump campaign text-messaged colleagues, “viva le resistance.”

[…]

• Challenged electors. They make up the Electoral College as the designated state representatives who are the final official vote to elect the next U.S. president.

Left-wing activists attempted to intervene to stop Trump-pledged electors from doing their constitutional duty. They deployed emails, phone calls and social media videos by celebrities.

One group, calling itself the “Hamilton Electors” — after Alexander Hamilton, the creator of the Electoral College — tried to persuade Trump electors to let Democrats vote in their place on the promise that they would vote for a moderate Republican.

[…]

• Called for impeachment. Rep. Maxine Waters, California Democrat, led the call for impeachment before Mr. Trump took office. She cited how Mr. Trump characterized Mrs. Clinton’s health during the campaign as a possible criminal charge.

Does that sound like “unity” to you? Doesn’t sound like it to me, either.

All of this and then some is why a lot of Republicans today – even many of the “respectable” Republicans the media leans on when they’re trying to shame another Republican into doing something – aren’t falling in line with the left’s/media’s whole “unity” facade.

They remember what happened in 2016, and they also remember the four years of hell Democrats and the media put this country through after that with bogus “bombshell” after “bombshell” that either went nowhere or in some instances ended up being fake news.

Trump remembers, too. So he is understandably in no mood to play nicey-nice with these same people. I can’t really say as I blame him.


Nancy Pelosi’s Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Week



Last week was not a stellar one for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. With the Congressional wins of Michelle SteelYoung Kim, and Burgess Owens, three more House seats have flipped from Blue to Red. This is a total of 12 House seats ripped from the Democrat majority, and there are still 13 House races yet to be called.

As former President Barack Obama used to delight in saying, “Elections have consequences.” But the consequences probably don’t feel so good when the shoe is on the Democrat’s foot.

At Pelosi’s Friday press conference, she claimed that her focus during the lame-duck session of Congress will be on passing a COVID-19 relief package, especially with surging case rates and death toll numbers. She described this as “an emergency of the highest magnitude,” and a “red alert” situation.

No more than a few hours later, she got hoisted by her own petard when a photo was tweeted of a lavish dining room being prepared in the Capitol to welcome incoming House members. Pelosi claimed that it was safe, that there was advanced ventilation for the meal, and that the Capitol physician had given his approval.


My colleague Sister Toldjah explained:

“Pelosi’s black-tie/glittery dress party was especially egregious when you consider 1) she’s still stalling the COVID relief bill as millions of Americans are struggling to make ends meet, and 2) the email she’d sent out to supporters in her Congressional district not long before the event was scheduled to take place:

Pelosi managed to piss off both sides of the aisle with this one.

When you’ve lost Chelsea Clinton…


“To show public health leadership”? When has Pelosi ever done this? In September, she got her hair blown out for an MSNBC appearance when salons in her hometown of San Francisco were supposed to be closed. Then she was caught on camera traipsing through the salon without a mask! Pelosi promptly claimed she was set up, and left the salon owner to deal with the fallout and death threats.

But, leadership…

Pelosi ended up canceling the dinner and, reflective of the “health leader” she is, she let her Deputy Chief of Staff present the news.

Now, the New York Post reports that Pelosi and Majority Leader Steny Hoyer are urging House members to forgo offers to jump ship to the Biden-Harris administration:

“Nancy is telling House members, ‘Now is not the time to leave,’” a Democratic Party official who’s been briefed by Democratic congressional reps said.”

Hoyer is also asking the Biden transition team to slow their roll. It’s like vultures picking through the bones of a carcass.

“But another House insider said House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) is urging Democratic congressional reps to stay put, and told the Biden transition team not to poach its members because of the party’s slim majority following the Nov. 3 elections.”

With 13 more races not yet called, any additional open House seats would have to be filled by special elections, which are open to Democrats and Republicans. Dependent upon the timing of such elections, it might not bode well for the supposed Democrat mandate.

From the comments on the New York Post’s tweet, Pelosi is receiving lots of compassion (NOT) for her predicament.

 


Elections have consequences. Pelosi’s gamble on the election results backfired, and I don’t believe she expected it to be this massive.

Keep the popcorn hot: I doubt this week will get any better for Madam Speaker.


If Gambling Sites Have Not yet Called the Presidential Election, Why Should We?





If Gambling Sites Have
Not yet Called the Presidential
Election, Why Should We?




By T.LaDuke • Nov 16, 2020


If you are one of the tens of thousands of people around the world who placed bets on the 2020 Presidential Election between President Donald Trump and Joe Biden you might be wondering why you have not yet been paid. Well, the simple answer is that neither Donald Trump nor Joe Biden has yet been declared the winner according to the people who run the sites.

Take that MSM.

I know this should not be shocking to someone who loves to travel to Vegas but you can bet on almost anything these days. When I found out about a week before this year’s Nov 3rd election that you could bet on even who would be the next leader of the free world I was a bit shocked, although it is 2020 so anything goes.

According to the New York Post this is a really big thing.


President Trump is not the only one who adamantly refuses to credit Joe Biden with winning the 2020 presidential election.

Honchos at online gambling sites around the world, which take wagers on election outcomes, are also refusing to call Biden president-elect, despite the final tallies in his favor in what’s been called a historically secure election. Now, millions of dollars in gamblers’ wins and losses hang in the balance.

At one site alone, London-based Betfair, nearly $600 million in presidential wagers are hanging tight.

“People who bet Trump say it is not over. People who bet Biden say it is. This makes for a tricky situation where we have to be sure. It’s not like a football game” in terms of there being a clear-cut victor, Burns said.


SIX HUNDRED MILLION!?!?!?!?

That is a mindboggling amount of money bet on an elected office and makes you wonder if there might be some more incentive to do some hanky panky around the ballot box to win more than just a 4-year term.

That the bookies are hesitant to pull the trigger then we definitely need to hold off on declaring a winner even though ABC, NBC, CBS, and FOX News have called it. I know some might quibble why I didn’t include MSNBC in there but why would I? Plus NBC is lucky I gave them the courtesy of being in that sentence.

I know that people are growing tired of the lawsuits winding their way through the courts but this is really the beautiful part of the republic we live in. We are supposed to settle these things peacefully and not the way that Bien supporters want by throwing bricks. Also, just imagine how anyone would feel if you were a Biden supporter and you’re thinking that Muppet of a Trojan Horse candidate of yours had won AND you placed money on him to win also. They must be FURIOUS to have not been paid off yet even though the Fox Decision Desk has called the race.

Just imagine now if the race gets called for Donald Trump how those people will feel.

Let those warm vibes roll over you and enjoy it for a moment.

Enjoy the rest of your day.
