Joe Biden wins (symbolic) Electoral College vote… But Nothing matters until Congress decides whether to accept the electors
Citizen Free Press ^ | 12/14/2020 | Kane

WASHINGTON — The Electoral College voted Monday. The ballots were cast throughout the day by individual electors in all 50 states and the District of Columbia, and they mirror their state’s popular vote.

Shortly before 5:30 p.m. ET, California electors cast their 55 votes for Biden, pushing him over 270 electoral votes to 302. Biden plans to address the nation on Monday night, where he will emphasize that “the integrity of our elections remains intact.”

Once electors have formally recorded their votes for president and vice president, the next major event in the Electoral College process is a joint session of Congress on Jan. 6, during which both chambers will officially count the electoral votes.

Vice President Mike Pence is expected to preside over the Jan. 6 proceedings in his formal role as president of the Senate, a job which also includes announcing the results.

Any objections in Congress to the electoral votes must be submitted in writing and signed by at least one member of the House and one senator. If an objection arises, the two chambers consider the objection separately.

Alabama Republican Rep. Mo Brooks has already said he will challenge the results of the Electoral College count in the House. In the Senate, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin has not ruled out filing a similar objection.

In a Washington Post survey of all 249 congressional Republicans, published Dec. 6, only 27 said they accepted Biden as the legitimately elected president. Another 220 GOP lawmakers gave an unclear answer or did not respond, and two, Brooks and Rep. Paul A. Gosar of Arizona, said they believed Trump was the rightful winner of the election.

The media and tonight’s speech by the corpse is telling the idiots out there that they won and what the president and his people are doing is sedition.

His Fraudulency isn’t my president and never will be. My conscience is clear. God will have the final say on America’s sins. Prepare yourself accordingly.

Yeah, I caught about the last 15 minutes of it : the people have spoken was the jist of it.
He coughed his way through the last 15 minutes of it.
I was expecting a " common, man " at the end of each sentence of platitudes, (cough,..cough).

Under no circumstances will I accept a Kameltoe/biden presidency. Not going to happen.

Whether we think he’s a fraud or not, we’ll still have to pay the taxes he and his party will pass (and he will sign.

Mark Fuckerberg is ENEMY #1.

All part of the Ice Cream Lady’s plan. Joe could be deposed or resign shortly after inauguration. His reason will be all of the corruption which has already been revealed, but will now be released by the MSM and allowed to be on Twitter’s and Facebook’s portals (they are co-conspirators). Surely Pelosi has enough dirt that she can frame Harris within days of her swearing in, thereby assuming the Office of the Presidency. She will have nearly 4 years of unimpeded power. There will be no need for a second term..That is good enough for a Clancy novel!

As if the cowardly GOP will do anything other than ask for more money and sower.

Yep. Pretty much out of morbid curiosity; was watching my local news and it was just starting on the high school football news when it was rudely interrupted by Bidiot.

The congress isn't going to reject the EC votes. Sure, there will be a few who object which will cause them to have to meet for a few hours...baring any new earth shattering news, they will ultimately accept the electors votes.

We are down to 2 critical items that stand between us and an absolute takeover of power by the socialist/marxists/communists/hate America crowd:

1. The 2 GA Senator races and whether they can succeed with stealing those elections...after successfully stealing the presidential election in that state.

2. If they do have the same success, as ironic as it might seem....we must hope and pray that senile biden can make it through a full 4 years. Because if he doesn't...and it looks like that's been their plan all along, harris will do to our country what seobarkah wished he had the guts to do all the while having a packed court, an additional 4 (D) Senators added to the 100 we have now and tens of millions of foreigners with newfound citizenship.

 

If GA allows the (D) to take those two senate seats...we are big time screwed:


A work, with citations, in progress.

Sounds nuts? Yup. And so too does allowing socialist/communist/globalist systemic in your face vote fraud to determine federal elections, and all the resulting consequences of such a power grab, in the United States of America.
Think they won't do it? I implore you to revisit what they did to Trump over the last 4 years using the power of the federal government, and...if further convincing is needed, go back another 8 years...just 7 years removed from 9/11...when the corrupt system promoted/allowed a no name junior senator called Barack Hussein Obama (aka Barry Soetoro, aka Soebarkah), from IL with an unknown/highly questionable background to openly usurp the Presidency of the United States.

 

Don't think China has plans to take over America? They do. And not just take over our manufacturing or our businesses. They consider the very land in the U.S. to be rightfully theirs. That's right. The land that makes up the United States of America is not ours, it belongs to the Chinese and their reasoning may surprise many. Read this speech given by China's former Minister of Defense Chi Haotian to high-level Communist Party Cadres sometime before his retirement in 2003. The whole thing is very enlightening to the way they think. If you don't want to read the whole thing, search for the term "colonization" and read that, and the following paragraph.

 

The above used to be stuff of wild conspiracy theory. Not anymore. The (D)'s aren't even hiding much, if any, of that agenda (minus what China would control). This is what they want. This is what they are after....and there would be nobody left politically/judicially to stop them from doing any of it.

That is, except for CWII.

However...just how likely would that be though? This isn't the 1800's. There is no structure, or infrastructure, in place for such a thing. One seemingly trivial example, uniforms. Aside from your immediate neighbors/family/friends, how would anyone know who is on what side, if any? What would be the command and control structure? Etc, etc. etc.
And lets face it, a majority of American's (including (R)'s) are willfully allowing their state and/OR local governments to restrict their ability to work, to go out to eat wherever they'd like and so on. They are willfully agreeing to keep themselves inside, and when they do go out briefly, to "socially distance" and to wear a piece of cloth over their nose and mouth.
And all this not because of a return of the Spanish flu, or the middle ages plague. They give up their freedoms, their liberties, lives and livelihoods for a virus that is, yes...serious, but now we know is about as deadly as the influenza virus during a moderate flu season primarily to those who would be similarly affected by influenza (over 70, pre-existing serious health conditions, etc). Remember...15 days to "slow the spread" became 30 days to "slow the spread" and that was ~9 months ago.

The irony of ironies here is that, realistically, the only thing that could stop the above domestic points from happening is the (D)'s themselves since they will be the ones in full control.
And, about the only thing that could stop the above international (i.e. China) points from happening, is Russia. Sure, Russia would love to see the U.S. no longer be the worlds only superpower....but there is no way they would be OK with allowing America to become so weak and for China to become so powerful as to be able to absorb the U.S. as a satellite state.

Raise your hand if you think (A) the rats lead by harris will put the brakes on ANY of that aforementioned...or that (B) the Chinese would NOT take advantage of a severely weakened/globalist first America?

 

A Republic...if you can keep it isn't just a throw away phrase. It has real meaning.

Congress if as dirty as the Democrats. Don't expect anything out of them.

Republicans that did not stand for Trump, did so because they are insiders and swamp dwellers too.
