Right, thanks.
Friend sent me this, he got it from the John Birch Society.

REJECT ELECTORAL VOTES OF STATES WITH FRAUD!
After spending four years trying to destroy President Donald Trump and the policies and values he stood for, the Left “defeated” him in an election filled with vote fraud and irregularities. Now that the Electoral College has cast its votes, there are growing calls for Congress on January 6, 2021, to challenge and reject those votes cast in states – including Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin – where fraud and unconstitutional voting procedures affected the results.
As The New American has extensively documented, the 2020 election was mired in voter fraud and irregularities, enabled and encouraged by various laws including those that discourage transparency and which make it easy to vote without proper identification. Additionally, many state voting laws and procedures, particularly those adopted since the coronavirus pandemic began, violate Article I, Section 4, of the U.S. Constitution which states that legislatures must decide those rules, not bureaucrats or courts.
Because of these problems, serious and legitimate doubt exists that Joe Biden actually won, and if he did not actually win states like Pennsylvania and Georgia, those electoral votes should not be counted in his favor.
While many establishment Republicans – who never supported Trump and his America First policies to begin with – quickly moved to dump Trump and congratulate Biden, others are choosing to fight for election integrity. They have some options at their disposal.
The Constitution does not give much detail about the counting of electoral votes in Congress. Article II, Section 1, states that “The President of the Senate shall, in the Presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the Certificates, and the Votes shall then be counted.” The Twelfth Amendment contains a nearly-identical sentence. This process is expounded upon in the Electoral Count Act of 1887.
Under the act, if at least one member in both the House and Senate object to any electoral votes, the chambers must debate for two hours over the objections. The votes can then be rejected if both chambers vote in favor of rejection. In the current political makeup of Congress, success would be virtually impossible, but if this effort did succeed, Congress would likely decide the next president and vice president. In fact, if neither candidate is determined to have a majority of the Electoral College votes, then the contest would be thrown into the House of Representatives where each state would have one vote. Since the Republicans currently control more state delegations in the House than the Democrats, Trump would have a path back to the White House.
Additionally, challenging the electoral votes on January 6 will send a message to Congress and other politicians that Americanists will not roll over and allow the Left to hijack this country and eradicate the principles of the founding fathers. Either way, this fight is only beginning, not ending.
Already, some members of Congress, including Representative Mo Brooks (R-Ala.), have announced they will challenge the electoral votes of certain states. Additionally, some senators have refused to rule out challenging the votes. On top of this, Vice President Mike Pence will preside over the electoral vote-counting. Adding strength to this effort, Republican electors in several states officially won by Biden also cast their votes, keeping Trump’s candidacy alive for now.
It is important that we continue pushing for election integrity, in this election and future ones, and that we continue to forcefully advocate for the Constitution and the founding fathers’ principles. Please urge your U.S. representative and senators to do the same and to challenge the electoral votes of states which are in doubt on January 6, 2021.
Awesome 👍
Amen
Thanks for posting that.
We all need to contact Senators and Reps. And don’t forget the Swing State Legislators. They can still de-certify Biden and certify Trump.
“The President of the Senate shall, in the Presence of the Senate and House of Representatives, open all the Certificates, and the Votes shall then be counted.”
Not going to happen, but how funny would it be if Pence said he was going to observe the law the same way they did in Georgia, dismiss all the observers, decide whatever count he wanted, destroy the actual ballots, and declare everything is normal and Trump won?

This year’s present was my gun and permit! LOL
And....I got 6 more boxes of 9mm ammo! I didn’t even take half of what he had in stock, so I wasn’t a piggie with it. But that’s enough to do the next two pistol training classes they have available. Need 150 rounds per class.

BREAKING: Both Biden and @realDonaldTrump sent enough electors to give them both 270+ electoral votes. This is the first time since 1887 this has happened. The election will be settled by the Electoral Count Act of 1887. #DuelingElectors

Trump loves to change things up. Now we have two new players. Jeff Rosen and Richard Donoghue. Who is Richard Donoghue? A former U.S. Attorney Donoghue served in the Judge Advocate General Corp in the U.S. Army where he was a military judge. Coincidence he’s a military judge?
Amen.
May the Angels do the heavy lifting, here on Earth, for this good and Godly man.
Fighting the fight!
Yeah, I remember LG’s post. I need to make that required reading when I wander off into other threads. Better yet, note to self, don’t read the naysayers elsewhere!
I like that one, like C programming.
Rereading this upbeat post!
This is a ‘rewrite’ of an Atlantic article....so, not sure about the last part.....
Although the Electoral College casts the official vote for president on Dec. 14, it’s up to Congress to certify the results a few weeks later. And federal law gives individual members of the House and Senate the power to challenge the results from the floor — a rarely used mechanism meant to be the last of all last resorts to safeguard an election.
....
“Nothing is off the table,” said Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.).
Gaetz pointed out that in January 2017, a handful of House Democrats took this precise procedural step before their efforts flamed out during a joint session of Congress presided over by none other than Biden, then the outgoing vice president.
“It is over,” Biden said at the time, gaveling down Democrats as Republicans cheered.
...
An obscure 1887 law called the Electoral Count Act, and several subsequent updates, spell out the process, setting Jan. 6 after a presidential election as the official certification date and outlining vague, complicated procedures.
On that day, the House and Senate meet in a joint session at 1 p.m. — just three days after a newly constituted Congress is sworn in. One of their first orders of business is to pass judgment on the Electoral College vote.
...
If the Democrat-run House and GOP-controlled Senate disagree? That outcome has never been tested before, though it would likely give governors in key states — including the Democrats who lead Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan — a larger role.
