The Cheneys take on Trump
Yahook ^ | Jan 4 2021 | Jon Ward

Posted on 01/04/2021 8:59:02 PM PST by rintintin

One day before the country roused itself from a holiday break, one of the most powerful families in Republican politics issued a double-barreled rebuke of President Trump.

Dick Cheney, the former vice president, and Liz Cheney, the third-ranking Republican in the House of Representatives, drew on their significant political capital and decades of experience in Washington to attack the president’s false claims of vote stealing and his undemocratic effort to overturn the election, which President-elect Joe Biden won.

Commierats have not mentioned Donald Trump’s impeachment since February, and the guy got more votes than any candidate in history including Joe Biden.

The media thinks they have dominant influence. They are fake news and 100million know it.

Someone remind the Cheney’s how Bush v. Gore came about. Also remind the Bush family how that happened too.

Honest elections are a concern. Still, we have to rely on PA and messed up state Freepers to get their houses in order.

Texas did not accept Dominion. Why did those other stupid states?

If the voters in PA feel like they were disinfranchised, they need to do something about it.

Stupid Brad from GA should be the first to go.

You’d have to block their means of getting money from the CCP then.

“I am not optimistic that, once Trump is gone, many freepers and other rank-and-file Republicans won’t fall in line with the party establishment - and denounce dissenters - just like they did when Bush was president, and when McCain and Romney were running.”
This fight for our country will require grit and determination. Not defeatism.

Think the country would survive that long under Harris-Biden?

The Derp State can fix any election they please to achieve the results THEY want.

They already have been fixing elections

My eyes have been opened. Election processes have already been "fine-tuned" and increasingly manipulated in places like California and New York. Its how they achieved complete one-party rule there. 2020 was a big leap in the spread and use of these practices.

And the fraud will have to increasingly become more blatant to achieve the same result. At the same time, more people have woken up to this fact.

Some of us have been practicing the last box of politics. Daily.

Ammo is hard to find, but zeroing everything you own has become quite necessary. Along with range cards of your property, lists of who is friendly/enemy, and communication/signals/passwords to cross lines.

Better to stay alert and stay alive than to merely become keyboard warriors. The real shit has a real possibility of hitting the fan.

Real soon.

Pray that I’m wrong. I do. Every effing day.

The GOP wants to go the way of the Whig party.


The GOP uses conservatives the way democrats use blacks. Unfortunately, we don’t have better options that could win.

Lots of those in all 50 states - and I hear, from a friend, they’re in prime shape.

The Cheneys talk of dangerous precedents, but fail to mention any of the really dangerous precedents.

That governors, SOS's and judges can break the law to set election rules.

That candidates can steal hundreds of thousands of votes and steal an election.

That judges don't have to give due process to a candidate when an election is stolen.

That election boards can throw out a candidate's poll watchers.

That campaigns are not allowed to audit both voting machines and the signatures on ballots when there is reasonable suspicion of fraud.

That voting machines can be on the internet.

That a candidate's lawyers can be threatened when they are representing their clients.

That a voting machine's source code can't be audited.

That governors and not state legislators select the slate of electors.

That Big Tech and the media won't cover the theft of an election.

That thousands of voters(at least 50,000 in GA) will show up at the polls and find that somebody or some campaign has systematically already voted for them.

That the chain of custody on millions of votes no longer matters.

That trucks of unmarked ballots can be trucked across state lines.

When people say the GOP is now Trump’s party, they are referring to the energy of the voters. Whoever said that Senators and Congressmen are trying to emulate Trump? It’s been obvious from day one that the GOP establishment doesn’t like Trump and will only take his side if it’s to their own advantage

Trump showed voters how much more effectively an outsider can govern than a career politician. They’ve gotten a taste of something much better. But you can’t throw out all the politicians overnight.

The best thing that can come out of this election fraud is that people wake up to how much effort the GOP establishment puts into scamming Conservative voters. They promote people like Paul Ryan and Mike Lee and Dan Crenshaw as bright young stars. When they are actually hand picked sellouts. Their whole racket is to keep Populists away from gaining any power.

God bless Rush Limbaugh, but Rush was always just a commentator. Steve Bannon is an activist who has the ability to help voters cleanse the GOP of all it’s many weasels.

But why am I even wasting my time pointing out anything positive to someone who only has negative things to say all the time

I think that’s a decent observation.

I tend to extend a shadow of a doubt, but I can’t argue
with you on it.

These people are destructive, either way.

How can these people and Mitt Romney be so clueless to what is going on here?

Sadly, FRiend, I think they TOTALLY understand what is going on here.

Cheney: US sticks to one-China policy (Xinhua)
Updated: 2004-04-13 21:21

U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney (L) is greeted by his Chinese counterpart Zeng Qinghong at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing April 13, 2004. Cheney arrived in Beijing Tuesday afternoon for a 3-day working visit. [Reuters]

Cheney made the remarks during the talks with his Chinese counterpart Zeng Qinghong.

The United States realized the importance of the Taiwan issue to US-China relations, and the US policy on that question was not changed at all, Cheney said.

The US side sticks to the one-China policy based on the three joint communiques between the United States and China, the US senior official said.

They are part and parcel, integral to what we stand before. They are very firm in their knowledge and commitment to their goals and actions needed to attain them. It’s time we stop writing their actions off as some mere oversight or naïveté on their part; it’s not. They are Bolsheviks.
