FL lawyer Jeff Childers take on Kari’s Lake case:
___________________________________________________________

🔥 Late last night, the judge entered an order in Kari Lake’s trial. She lost, of course, which delighted and encouraged liberals everywhere. Gleeful cries of “no evidence!” could be heard across the country.

But, as ever, it’s not quite that simple. Here is the core of the Judge’s reasoning:

“Plaintiff [Lake] argues that 274,000 signatures (or so) were compared in less than two seconds. Plaintiff then zeroes in on 70,000 – the number of ballots that she claims were given less than one second of comparison. Plaintiff argues that this is so deficient for signature comparison that it amounts to no process at all. Accepting that argument would require the Court to re-write not only the [Elections Procedure Manual] but Arizona law to insert a minimum time for signature verification and specify the variables to be considered in the process.”

In other words, the trial judge said maybe it’s true they spent less than a second to compare signatures, but the law doesn’t say how long it HAS to take, so what’s he supposed to do about it? How is HE supposed to know how long a “good” signature verification should take?

I respectfully disagree with the judge. The judge didn’t have to create new standards; he could’ve ruled that less than one second is the wrong amount of time, regardless of what the right amount of time might be. I can’t imagine why he thought he had to tell anybody what the right amount of time is to do justice in this case.

We have not yet heard from Lake’s group, except for a tweet saying they’d be making a big announcement today. Kari has previously sworn that, if she lost, she’d appeal to the Arizona Supreme Court.

This result is predictable, even expected. When I filed my mask lawsuit against the county in 2020, I knew that it would be almost impossible that the trial judge would take on the political burden of becoming the country’s first anti-mask judge. She gave me all I could really hope for: a fairly-conducted hearing, a quick, appealable order, and she let me create the record I needed for the inevitable appeal.

Had anyone from Kari’s team asked me, I would’ve predicted the same thing for her trial. They needed to be getting all the necessary evidence into the record, but planning for the inevitable appeal. It looks like the judge did let them get the evidence in, which is a great blessing. In other words, the judge kept his hands clean, but passed the decision buck up the line — where it would’ve inevitably gone anyway.

It’s too simplistic to say the judge should’ve been courageous and ruled for Kari no matter what. His decision would’ve only carried symbolic weight, and why potentially ruin your career to make a symbol? It’s not irrational that a judge could’ve concluded it was better to help by conducting a fair trial, getting everything in the record, and letting the plaintiff take it up to the appellate court, as opposed to the defendant.

It’s true that in most cases it’s better to win at the trial level, because it is vastly easier to defend an appeal than try to get a reversal. But that calculus goes out the window in politically-charged cases like this. Believe me. This case was always going to be decided by Arizona’s Supreme Court, one way or the other, regardless of what happened at trial.

Finally, Kari Lake has proven she’s a fighter. That’s going to go a LONG way for whatever comes next for her. She’d make a great VP for someone. Just saying.

I’ve been saying it - I bet they’ll be a minimum of 15 Republican candidates in the primary.

Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin is “reconsidering” a bid for the White House in the 2024 election, a report says. https://trib.al/YApX4nw

Good analysis by Jeff Childers and gives one HOPE which is in short supply these days.

Thanks for posting.

*****************
1) The CIA has ALWAYS been corrupt.
Since its founding, in 1947.
The CIA killed JFK and RFK,
The CIA did 9/11
The CIA did 87 Coup’s around the world
- including in Ukraine, in 2014,
- and in the US, in Nov. 2020
*****************
2) It is the CIA who installed the demented USURPER Joe Biden and his Cabal in the WH.

read:
- Hunter laptop is “Russian disinformation”
- Stolen Election
- Jan. 6
- the Riots of the Summer 2020
and much more.

*****************
3) The CIA controls:
- NYT
- WaPo
- CNN
- Fox
- MSNBC
- CBS
- ABC
- The BBC
- Google, YouTube
- Facebook
- Twitter (even now)

Thus, the CIA controls the Narrative.

*****************
4) And there is much more to be said...
*****************
6) The worst enemy of the USA
is not Russia.
is not China.

The worst enemy of the USA is the CIA.
*****************

5) The FBI is the domestic Gestapo of the CIA.

The Jan. 6 trap was done by the FBI, DHS, DC police
- but make no mistake:
it was planned by the CIA.
*****************

7) To restore the Republic - and to restore the Rule of Law - there is Only ONE Solution:
- Dismantle the CIA (like JFK wanted to do in 1963)
- Dismantle the FBI
- Dismantle the DOJ
- Dismantle the DHS

and this is only the Start.

Let me know if you agree...
*****************
8) The CIA is an inherently subversive, Criminal organization.
They showed it over and over again.

From the 1950’s, to 1963, to Sept 2001, to Nov. 2020, to Jan. 2021, and onwards to this very day.

The CIA: “We Lie, We Cheat, We Steal”

and: “We Kill”
*****************
9) CIA = “Central Intelligence Agency”

What mainly the Central Intelligence Agency lacks is Intelligence.
*****************

10) The CIA must be dismantled.
Period.

And it is interesting to note that many former CIA Officers (true Patriots) are saying the same: “The CIA must be dismantled”.

Among them: Ray McGovern

, Larry Johnson, Phil Giraldi
*****************
11) Herrengasse 23,
Bern, Switzerland

Why is this address so important?

And how is it related with the shenanigans of the CIA?
*****************
12) Herrengasse 23, Bern
was the address of the OSS Station in Switzerland.

The OSS was the precursor of the CIA.

The OSS Station Chief in Switzerland was Allen Dulles, who later became CIA Director, and orchestrated the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
*****************
13) Allen Dulles was also the most powerful member of the Warren Commission, whose task was to investigate the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

Think about it...
*****************
14) Think about it...

Allen Dulles, the guy who orchestrated the assassination of JFK, was also the boss of the Commission tasked to investigate the JFK assassination...
*****************
15) What Allen Dulles did in the Warren Commission was to coordinate the cover-up.

The FBI and its Director, J. Edgar Hoover, helped Allen Dulles in the cover-up.

They were all in it: the CIA, the FBI and the Secret Service.
*****************
16) But what happened in Herrengasse 23, Bern, Switzerland, in 1945?

Allen Dulles, then OSS Station Chief in Switzerland, made an agreement with the Head of the Nazi Party, Martin Bormann.
*****************
17) It was a secret agreement, and it is classified to this very day, 78 years later.

The terms of that secret agreement between Allen Dulles, representing the USA, and the Head of the Nazi Party, Martin Bormann, are so repugnant and disgusting that you certainly prefer not to…
know them.
*****************
18) Let us underline that in 1945 Martin Bormann, Head of the Nazi Party, was the most powerful man of Nazi Germany.

In fact, since mid-1944 Adolf Hitler did not have any real power anymore, and Bormann and Himmler (Head of the SS) had taken over.

Hitler was kept as Fuhrer just…
just as a symbolic figurehead.
*****************
19) No US President, except Truman and perhaps Eisenhower, has ever known about that secret agreement between Allen Dulles and the Head of the Nazi Party, Martin Bormann.

Nor about its terms,
Neither of its existence.
*****************
20) Six years later, in 1951, Allen Dulles was made Deputy Director of the CIA,
and in 1953 he was promoted as Director of the CIA.

And we know what he did in 1963...

And what about Martin Bormann, the Head of the Nazi Party?

*****************
21) In 1967 Martin Bormann cashed a check for a few million dollars at the branch of the Chase Manhattan Bank of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

What is remarkable is that Martin Bormann signed the check with his own name.
He did not even bother to hide his identity with an alias name.
*****************
22) We know that after WWII, and for decades, Israel and the Mossad went all over the world chasing Nazi war criminals.

The Mossad captured many of them.
*****************
23) Well... Martin Bormann, the Head of the Nazi Party, was never chased or even disturbed by the Mossad.

Bormann lived in Argentina undisturbed until his natural death, in 1972.
*****************************************************
