Excellent article, thank you for posting it.

The contrast between Washington and most of those who have held the office since him is breathtaking.

The enormous gulf between Washington and the current president is enough to make one cry.

George Washington had a fantastic command of the English language. He was brilliant. I have a book of quotes by him and he is still astounding, even now. Biden, not so much!

They picked the right guy to be the 1st President of the United States.

George Washington would not have found a Kenyan from Indonesia to be a natural born citizen of the United States.

James Monroe in 1820 missed a unanimous vote by one delegate. The legend is that the Delegate did not want to end the honor of Washington being the only unanimous vote

The guy from the Old Dominion might not have made it if Dominion voting machines were around back then.

On the other hand, the Maricopa County audit counted the ballots 3 times and compared it to the Dominion machine count - within a hundred or so each time. The audit team used the actual ballots twice and the third count was from an image the audit team took of the actual ballot.

Fulton County, GA also hand counted its ballots and compared it to Dominion's machine count. It was accurate.

There was also a smaller county in Michigan which hand counted its ballots which matched the machine count.

Last, there was a town in New Hampshire that hand counted and the result was the same.

Last August, Mike Lindell said he was going to explain why the machines changed the votes - not all use Dominion. He was going to explain how each state's reported votes changed from A to B. He never did, unfortunately. He still hasn't.

So, I'm not worried about the machines anymore, but is obvious there were a ton of illegal ballots, which we all know about. That is what people are really focused on now and how to prevent these illegal ballots from being counted.

But then again, there were no Democrats back then.

They wouldn't let Paine vote when he returned to the United States.

Fulton is a shithole of liberalism in GA. I have no doubt they lied about the machine tally or made ballots after the fact to match.

Rest I have nothing to say

Well gee, if YOURE not worried then that settles it./s

Paxton and the state of Texas showed the machines are packed with holes that can alter the vote totals.

Air gapped, pft.

I’m sure their analysis is correct, but so far no hand recount has shown fraud.
