That’s amazing, for Lindsey, isn’t it?

I hope MANY other DC R Reps do the same.

We donated...but NOT $500,000.00 :-)

ABC is not reporting any such stuff about election infractions and are claiming “Trump is offering no proof”

Proof incoming.

They don’t care about proof. they pretending mail in ballots were just fine before the election every time POTUS on anyone said these are not easily verifiable and are open to tons of fraud they all said “THAT IS A LIE” even though there have been CONVICTIONS over mail in fraud.

Credit to Lindsey.

He deserves a seat next to Trump when Trump is sworn in for his second term.

Meanwhile Trump is tweeting at 2:20 am:

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 2m
Twitter is out of control, made possible through the government gift of Section 230!

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 2m
I easily WIN the Presidency of the United States with LEGAL VOTES CAST. The OBSERVERS were not allowed, in any way, shape, or form, to do their job and therefore, votes accepted during this period must be determined to be ILLEGAL VOTES. U.S. Supreme Court should decide!

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump 3m
So now the Democrats are working to gain control of the U.S. Senate through their actions on John James, David Perdue, and more. Would End the Filibuster, “Life”, 2A, and would Pack and Rotate the Court. Presidency becomes even more important. We will win!

I donated $50 and then agreed to double it. I’m currently unemployed so that’s the best I could do.

This is LBJ's Box 13 on meth.

https://www.texasmonthly.com/politics/go-ask-alice/
NOVEMBER 1998

AT FIRST GLANCE, THE SOUTH TEXAS TOWN OF ALICE hardly looks like the sort of place that changed the course of history. Other than the decaying grandeur of the Rialto movie theater and the carved limestone facade of the Texas State Bank Building—now bearing a For Sale sign—there are few clues that Alice has a story to tell. But even if historical markers and the local museum make no mention of the town’s claim to infamy, the facts are undeniable: In September 1948 Alice saved Lyndon Johnson’s political career from near ruin, providing him—by hook or by crook—with an 87-vote victory in a U.S. Senate runoff against Texas governor Coke Stevenson. Without Alice, LBJ would have lost a Senate bid for the second time, making his eventual ascendancy to the vice presidency, and then the presidency, practically impossible...

...Three days after that, officials made a startling discovery in Alice: Precinct 13’s tally sheet, which had reported 765 votes for Johnson on primary day, now listed 965 in his favor. (One of Parr’s men, it was later revealed, had extended the lip of the “7” downward into a “9.”) The votes for Johnson were written in the same handwriting, signed in the same ink, and cast in alphabetical order. Nevertheless, Johnson was pronounced the victor, earning the tongue-in-cheek sobriquet Landslide Lyndon for winning by less than one hundredth of one percent of the total vote...

... Stevenson later contested the election, but Johnson’s attorneys successfully argued that the federal courts had no jurisdiction in a state election...

-----

That Supreme Court decision was from an FDR appointed Democrat Klansman.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_13_scandal

The investigation eventually reached the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court Justice, Hugo Black, ruled that the federal government was not allowed to get involved with a state election.

https://www.nytimes.com/1977/07/31/archives/exofficial-says-he-stole-1948-election-for-johnson-most-involved.html

Mr. Salas says now that he lied in an aborted investigation of the election, in 1948 when he testified that the vote count had been proper and aboveboard. “I was just going along with my party,” he says.

He said Mr. Parr ordered that 200‐odd votes be added to Mr. Johnson's total from Box 13. Mr. Salas said he had seen the fraudulent votes added in alphabetical order and had then certified them as authentic on orders from Mr. Parr.

The Associated Press interviewed everyone connected with the case still alive to corroborate Mr. Salas's story. One man who got a brief look at the Box 13 vote tally in the original investigation was a former agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, T. Keilis Dibrell. He confirmed Mr. Salas's statement that the last 200 votes had been in alphabetical order.

“It stuck out like a sore thumb,” Mr. Dibrell said. “Also. the last 202 names were made with the same colored ink. and in the same handwriting, whereas the earlier names in the poll list were written by different individuals and in different color inks.”

The final statewide count, including Box 13 votes, gave Mr. Johnson an 87vote margin in a total tally approaching 1 million, earning him the tongue‐incheek nickname “Landslide Lyndon.”

Yup. He worked his ass off supporting Kavanaugh during the Senate hearings circus. He beat the living crap out of the dems bashing Kavanaugh.

It’s a fungible commodity, so no matter which pocket it comes out of; giving it away means he’ll have that much less to work with later on.

It’s way Hell ‘n’ gone beyond anything that damnable floater McCain EVER would have done.

I still an not a big Graham fan, but he’s come a long way toward winning back my respect these past few years, and I’ll sure bump him up a couple notches more for this gesture of good faith, and support for our President.

Thank you Senator Graham. Every Senate and House Republican needs to step up the fight. We are in a battle and the thieves trying to steal this election need an ass kicking!
