The debate is over. After a year investigating claims of election fraud the media has determined that any fraud in the 2020 election was far too small to have changed the outcome and Joe Biden legitimately won. Now we can get back to our normal lives, or whatever passes for normal now… Except it’s fiction.
In 44 BC Julius Caesar was murdered by Roman senators who claimed to be acting to protect the Republic but were in fact, simply seeking power. Their coup d'état put the final nail in the coffin of a Republic that had been dead in deed if not name for decades.
Coup d'états differ from revolutions in that they’re generally orchestrated by or include people within government who seize power – often with a narrow use of or threat of violence – that results in a rapid transition of power. Revolutions are often longer affairs that include much of a country’s population and exponentially more bloodshed.
A common goal of a coup is to keep much of the society and government apparatus intact, but change who’s in charge. This illusion of continuity is intended to gain the acquiescence of the population so they don’t think they’ve been plunged into a civil war.
And that’s exactly what we got. While Donald Trump does not lay in a bloody toga on the floor of the Senate, America witnessed a coup d’état equally as viscous. Many will deny one took place because their guy won, but make no mistake, virtually every American knows one did, even if only 56% admit it.
The moment the coup began to reveal itself Americans knew something was amiss. Many went to bed November 3rd believing Trump won, leading in enough states to secure an electoral victory, including Pennsylvania, Michigan, Georgia, and Wisconsin. Strangely however, while much of America slept, densely populated Democrat counties like Fulton in Georgia (Atlanta) and Allegheny in Pennsylvania (Pittsburg) “stopped counting” votes only to “restart” later with Joe Biden having a sufficient number of votes to swing the state blue. Similarly Philadelphia stopped “reporting” at 1 AM and later reported Biden numbers sufficient to take the state.
The morning of the 4th, as cries of fraud came from red areas across the country, the side that had spent years crying “election fraud” suddenly fell silent. Apparently 2020 had become the “most legitimate election in American history”.
Joseph Stalin who said “Those who vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything.” That’s exactly how we went from being a Constitutional Republic to a banana republic, but rather than the United Fruit Company or the CIA running the coup, it was Mark Zuckerberg, Democrats, the FBI and the media.
Just after Biden was sworn into office Molly Ball of TIME Magazine wrote a glowing paean to the coup: “Their work touched every aspect of the election. They got states to change voting systems and laws and helped secure hundreds of millions in public and private funding. They fended off voter-suppression lawsuits, recruited armies of poll workers and got millions of people to vote by mail for the first time. They successfully pressured social media companies to take a harder line against disinformation and used data-driven strategies to fight viral smears. They executed national public-awareness campaigns that helped Americans understand how the vote count would unfold over days or weeks, preventing Trump’s conspiracy theories and false claims of victory from getting more traction.”
And as with any good coup, violence was threatened: “The nation was braced for chaos. Liberal groups had vowed to take to the streets, planning hundreds of protests across the country.” In this context “protests” is a metaphor for Democrat approved violence unleashed by BLM and Antifa across the country. Ball points out that following Biden’s victory the threatened violence was called off. “There was a conspiracy unfolding behind the scenes, one that both curtailed the protests and coordinated the resistance from CEOs.”
While Ball’s homage may be insightful, the definitive account of the coup comes from Mollie Hemingway in “Rigged”. Unlike Ball, who couches everything about the coup in the fiction of patriots seeking to “protect” America from the fascist Donald Trump, Hemingway exposes exactly how the leftist cabal set the table for the coup, and upon its execution unleashed a propaganda machine to pretend the coup never happened.
Hemingway showcases incompetent GOP functionaries like Georgia’s Brad Raffensperger empowering Democrats led by the treacherous Marc Elias and Stacy Abrams to make unconstitutional voting rule changes. From corrupt jurists ignoring legislation and others explicitly ignoring the Constitution and allowing arbitrary election rulemaking that favored Democrats to the FBI and the media spending years attacking Trump, Hemingway exposes the coup step by step. She demonstrates how Mark Zuckerberg wrote a $400 million check and financed the coup d'état that undermined our Republic.
In perhaps the single most telling line in Rigged, on page 221 Hemingway quotes a reporter for the Wisconsin Spotlight: “The City of Green Bay literally gave the keys to the election to a Democrat Party operative from New York.” Similar dynamics played out across the country.

foreign countries interfered with US infrastructure.
it is War, and they have shown it with each “vax” and lie.
The real coup was on Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009.
The Constitution says natural born citizen.
Obama is NOT one.
Everything that has happened flows from that fatal error.
Under our current two-tier "justice system" no on will ever be called to account for these crimes.
EVERYONE KNOWS.
The election was riddled with FRAUD !!!
Resource bookmark
And here we are 14 months later searching for a way to stand together that will topple the corrupt oligarchs.
THE best resource is the index in “RIGGED”,, wonderful factoids naming persons and dates. Buy M Hemmingway’s book for your book shelf. She unpeels the whole onion in very well written style.Just bought another 2 for belated Christmas gifts.
ping
Does anybody have Mollie Hemmingway’s book? Is it good?
This was the tell. Every MSM outlet was parroting the memo: "Now on Election Day it's going to look like Trump won, but we're going to call it a 'Red Mirage' because we will continue to find ballots after the election until such a time that we overturn Trump's win."
good stuff
“And here we are 14 months later searching for a way to stand together that will topple the corrupt oligarchs.”
Yes, the sad part is not that the coup happened, but that American conservatives meekly accepted it.
Recall that the left extensively war gamed possible Trump challenges to a stolen election. Who does that besides the cabal of conspirators?
We are paying a stiff price for F Joe’s traitorous plot. I pray that justice be visited on them.
Not sure who goofed here - the author of this link, or Mollie Hemingway's book.
Trump lost by three states and 43,000 votes. Winning AZ, GA, and WI would have tied the electoral vote. The GOP majority in the House would have elected Donald Trump.
TIME called it “Fortifying “ the election. I say we have our own Fortification this next election. That would make the “Progressives” freak out to think the tables would turn with their own methods. Meetings with Secretaries of States starts ASAP.
.
The meek part is probably true. Accepted, not so much.
How do we stand together? Until we can do that we can not win. The slings and arrows of the left can not be allowed to reach their mark. They must be dismissed as ignorant, hateful, and arrogant, because they are. The “Let’s Go Brandon” chants is a perfect illustration of the contempt in which the left is held. More and more venues for our expression of disgust need to open.

Since Wuhans First Strike.
Does “Rigged”
Mention ‘Mr. DOMINION?’
