Michigan is back in play after software ‘glitch’ correction returns votes to President Trump Just as mainstream media and Democrats gleefully prepared to announce a Biden win, some of the shenanigans we’ve seen throughout this election was reversed in Michigan.

Stop the presses. The fat lady hasn’t sung yet. Michigan appears to be back in play as a supposed “software glitch” has been corrected, reversing over 5,500 votes from Joe Biden to President Trump. This “glitch” has been found in 47 other counties, delivering hope that Michigan may, indeed, be red after all.

Legacy Media’s Fraud on the Public If anything is bogus or baseless, it is the endlessly repeated statement by “mainstream” media organs that no evidence exists of malfeasance in the casting or counting of votes. Bruce Bawer

In one Democrat-run swing state after another, there is ample evidence of voter fraud in the presidential election. States that were in Donald Trump’s column late in the evening of Election Day had moved to Joe Biden’s column by the next morning, and the way the numbers changed during that time was highly suspicious. 

Tales of vote counts that mysteriously stopped in the middle of the night and then started up again without notice also raised concern. Especially bemusing was the fact that every late shift in the vote count favored Biden—and that his numbers, in one place after another, were considerably higher than those for Obama in 2012, for Hillary in 2016, or for other Democratic candidates in Tuesday’s down-ballot races. 

In at least a couple of jurisdictions, it was maintained that more votes were cast than there were registered voters—an outcome not fully explained by same-day registration. There have been quite a few reports of ballots cast by dead people, of the sale of fake votes, of “ballot harvesting” (the collecting and submission of multiple completed ballots by third parties), and of numerous mail-in ballots being delivered to a single voter. 

More and more people have come forward since Wednesday morning saying they witnessed shenanigans on the part of poll workers, postal employees, and others. Poll observers say they were denied the right to monitor vote counts up close. 

In Philadelphia, the sheriff refused to obey a court order to let poll observers do their jobs. In Detroit, poll workers covered the windows of their counting room when a crowd formed outside. In Michigan, a purported whistleblower told Project Veritas of late ballots being hand-stamped “November 3” so they could be counted. 

There’s much more. All of it is concerning. Some of the assertions may turn out to be flatly untrue or exaggerated, or else to be the products of honest misinterpretation of innocuous activity. 

Some of them, however, may be cases of real electoral fraud. 

Erdoğan’s Jihad on “Infidel Europe” by Burak Bekdil

https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/16700/erdogan-jihad-europe

Middle Eastern politics is always a trap for radical ideologues. In Erdoğan’s mindset the “infidel West” is militarily helping Armenia (the evil) and Turkey is militarily helping Azerbaijan (the righteous).

Although Ankara and Baku categorically deny accusations, press reports and independent human rights observers have confirmed the arrival of hundreds of jihadists in Azerbaijan to fight Armenia.

After the Turkish military’s direct armed engagement on Iraqi and Syrian territories, proxy wars in Syria, Libya and Yemen, military tensions on the Aegean and Mediterranean seas, Erdoğan’s new jihadist adventurism has found a new theater of war in the Caucasus. What’s next?

The jihad against Europe by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan is probably based on both ideology and opportunism. Fierce anti-Western rhetoric is an ideological sine qua non for Turkish political Islam; it is also a secure vote-catcher targeting conservative and nationalist masses.

Erdoğan’s jihadism is not seasonal or a newfound system of political ideas. It is also not a reflection of peaceful sufism. Erdoğan comes from the ranks of Turkey’s militant political Islamism that emerged in late 1960s under the leadership of the ideologue, Necmettin Erbakan, Turkey’s first Islamist prime minister and Erdoğan’s mentor. In Erbakan’s rhetoric universal politics is simply about a struggle between the righteous (Islam) and a coalition of Zionists and racist imperialists — all else is just details. In his thinking, the Zionists support Turkey’s membership in the European Union in order to “get Turkish Muslims to melt in a pot of Christianity.”

In a 2016 speech, Erdoğan talked of European countries: “These are not just our enemies… Behind them are plans and plots and other powers.” Also in 2016, he said that jihad is never terrorism. “It is resurrection…. It is to give life, to build… It is to fight the enemies of Islam.” In 2017, Erdoğan added that the German government’s actions resembled those of Nazi Germany.

Last month, the Gaza-based leader of Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), Dawood Shihab, said that Turkey was the bravest Muslim country to fight French President Emmanuel Macron’s hostility toward Muslims. Turks thought flattering words from PIJ were not enough crucify an infidel disguised as the president of a big European nation.

Erdoğan had to take the stage. Venue: A party convention in the heart of Anatolia. Décor: Huge posters of Erdoğan and Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev. Two more photographs: Azeri landscape and the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem. Slogan: “Karabakh and Al-Aqsa mosque [in Jerusalem] are waiting for us!” [Nagorno-Karabakh is a disputed territory under Armenian occupation since the 1990s.]

Let’s Take Stock of Where We Are by Michael Anton *****

https://amgreatness.com/2020/11/06/lets-take-stock-of-where-we-are/

If the Democrats just ram these election results through without explaining, then the legitimacy not just of our electoral system but of our entire government may suffer a fatal blow.

he 2020 election in particular, and our electoral process in general, have been badly compromised.

First there have been the successful efforts by Democrats to loosen electoral administration standards and practices by legalizing ballot harvesting (where partisan “volunteers” go out and collect ballots as well as “assist” voters in filling out their ballots), allowing same-day voter registration, mass mail-in voting, and the like. On the flipside we have Democrats tenaciously fighting any efforts to shore up the integrity of the system, such as requiring ID and proof of citizenship to vote. 

Couple all of this with unprecedented last minute rule changes on the eve of what was sure to be the most contested election in generations, if not in American history: all changes designed to favor one side over the other.

Theoretically, none of these measures guaranteed a compromised vote. Theoretically, it’s possible that a system designed to be gamed and abused won’t be. But a party concerned about the integrity of the system wouldn’t expend so much effort making it easier to rig elections; it would do the opposite. The other party, the one trying to do exactly that (if all too often in a desultory, half-hearted way) nevertheless gets attacked as the enemy of “democracy.”

All the Glitches and Clerical Errors Add Up for Biden Daniel Greenfield

https://www.frontpagemag.com/point/2020/11/all-glitches-and-clerical-errors-add-biden-daniel-greenfield/

The media’s standard practice when reporting on anything Republicans say is to tack on “Falsely” or “Without Evidence”.

When they tack on “Falsely”, it means that the media can cobble together some argument on behalf of the Democrats even if it’s Snopes garbage, while, “Without Evidence” means they don’t have a damn thing to counter it with except some procedural arm waving.

Currently, “Without Evidence” keeps getting attached to every time Republicans and conservatives note sizable “errors” and “irregularities”. 

By that the media means that Republicans can’t prove it was enemy action. 

Take Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel’s press conference on what’s going on in Michigan, which includes falsely claiming that Republican observers were on site, when they weren’t allowed in, and a massive “error” that marked thousands of Republican ballots for Democrats.

If we keep putting up with election cheating, it will keep happening By J. Hawker

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/11/if_we_keep_putting_up_with_election_cheating_it_will_keep_happening.html

Does it really surprise anyone?  It’s what cheaters do — they cheat.  And why not, when you continually get away with it?  Why stop?  The 2008 Norm Coleman versus Al Franken election, won by Coleman, is a perfect example.  Harry Reid refused to accept the election result, which was overturned when ballots were “found” in the trunk of a vehicle.  How convenient — the necessary votes to reverse the election by a neat 312-vote margin, found in the trunk of a car.  Feckless Republicans did nothing.  Further revelations of voter fraud with inmates illegally casting votes for Franken came to light, but by then, Franken had been sworn in, and America just accepted the Democrats’ cheating ways.  In this way, Democrats got that magic number in the Senate by which they could perpetrate any crime they wished on America.  It is how the Big Lie, Obamacare, was foisted on Americans.

Then there were those 2018 House elections.  How many of those were the byproduct of voter fraud?  Four flipped seats in New Jersey, three in New York, five in Pennsylvania,  three in Minnesota, six in California, placing Nancy Pelosi back in the speaker position.  How about those seats won by Republican but then reversed in California?  How much of a buffer did they provide to keep Republicans from winning back the House in 2020?  As an American, I deserve to know how many seats have been stolen over the years!  Voter fraud by mail — what could possibly go wrong?  Revelations that ballot envelopes were backdated at multiple Post Offices, stolen ballots, ballots thrown away by postal workers — one more federal agency that loses all credibility.  On Election Night,  Trump had a 700,000-vote lead, and the Democrats had to erase that lead in any way possible.  After all, elections are too important to let the peasants decide the outcome.

Details continue to emerge, documenting what we all know, what we all expected: the most massive voter fraud scandal in the history of the United States.  Whether it was a Freudian slip, an honest moment courtesy of Joe Biden’s advancing dementia, or emboldened arrogance, Biden proclaimed that they have created a large “voter fraud organization.”

In 30 states, a computer system known to be defective is tallying votes By Andrea Widburg

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/11/in_30_states_a_computer_system_known_to_be_defective_is_tallying_votes.html

When Kyle Becker heard about the “glitchy” computer program in Antrim County, Michigan, the one that tried to give 6,000 Trump votes to Biden, he starting doing research into the system. He ended up finding an amazing amount of highly disturbing information. The Dominion system has been known for some time to be defective, yet 28 states use it. This post is a compilation of Becker’s information, both in his own tweets and in one other person’s tweet, about what’s going on with that system:

What I find most disturbing is the impunity with which Democrats are gaming the system. They’re not even trying to cover their tracks. They are 100% certain that there will be no consequences for their actions. They know that the media, which should be a watchdog on behalf of American citizens, is actually an arm of the Democrat party that will do everything necessary to cover for Democrat election crimes.

Georgia to Hold Recount Due to Razor-Thin Margin Between Biden, Trump Votes By Zachary Evans

https://www.nationalreview.com/news/georgia-to-hold-recount-due-to-razor-thin-margin-between-biden-trump-votes/

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger has announced that elections officials would conduct a recount of the 2020 vote in the state, because of the razor-thin difference in ballots cast for Joe Biden and President Trump.

With 99 percent of the state’s vote tallied as of 12:40 a.m. on Friday, Biden led Trump by 1,564 votes.

“Out of approximately five million votes cast, we’ll have a margin of a few thousand,” Raffensperger, a Republican, told reporters at a Friday press conference. The secretary emphasized that his office would focus on making sure that “every legal vote is counted and recorded accurately…with a margin that small, there will be a recount.”

The Jobs Keep Coming The economy’s rebound continues to defy the Fed’s pessimists.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-jobs-keep-coming-11604706131?mod=opinion_lead_pos2

Friday’s labor report showing that employers added 906,000 private jobs in October again beat forecasts. The economy’s resilience is befuddling the pessimists, much as Tuesday’s election results confounded media pollsters.

The jobless rate fell to 6.9% last month from 7.9% in September even as labor force participation ticked up 0.3 percentage points to 61.7%. Total employment rose 638,000 despite a 268,000 decline in government jobs—mostly education and temporary Census. No surprise, schools on remote learning need fewer workers.

Private job growth was broad-based and especially strong in leisure and hospitality (271,000), retail (104,000), construction (84,000), health care and social assistance (79,000) and transportation and warehousing (63,200). As state restrictions have eased, businesses have continued to increase hiring. Grocery and home-improvement stores employ more than they did a year ago.

Keynesians at the Federal Reserve and on Wall Street have continued to predict the economy would fall off a demand cliff without trillions in new government spending. But their forecasts keep missing. The Fed June jobless rate prediction for the end of the year was 9.3%, which it cut to 7.6% in September, but the rate is already 6.9%. Too many people are still out of work, but progress has been remarkable since the government-induced recession. The economy will continue to grow as long as the U.S. avoids policy mistakes, including another lockdown.

Supreme Court Orders Pennsylvania to Separate out Late-Arriving Ballots Justice Samuel Alito orders that ‘all such ballots, if counted, be counted separately’ By Mimi Nguyen Ly & Janita Kan

https://www.theepochtimes.com/us-supreme-court-orders-pennsylvania-to-segregat

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito late Friday ordered Pennsylvania election officials to segregate ballots that arrived after Election Day.

Alito granted a request by the state’s Republican party to separate mail-in ballots received between 8 p.m. Nov. 3 and 5 p.m. Nov. 6 from those that arrived by 8p.m. Nov. 3, in accordance with state guidance.

He ordered (pdf) that those segregated ballots must be kept “in a secure, safe and sealed container separate from other voted ballots.”

The justice, however, did not order the counties to stop counting but instead ordered that “all such ballots, if counted, be counted separately.”

Alito also directed any responses to the application by 2 p.m. Nov. 7.

The Republican Party of Pennsylvania had filed a request (pdf) earlier on Friday asking the court for an order to log, segregate, and not take any actions over mail-in ballots received after Election Day.
