Only a few weeks ago Hillary Clinton’s campaign was denouncing Donald Trump as un-American for saying the election might be “rigged.” We criticized Mr. Trump at the time. But now that Mrs. Clinton has lost, her campaign is claiming the election really was rigged, albeit for Mr. Trump by Russian meddling, and it wants the Electoral College to stage what amounts to a coup.
That’s the only way to interpret the extraordinary statement Monday by Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta endorsing a special intelligence briefing for electors a week before they cast their ballots for President on Dec. 19. He released the statement hours after 10 members of the Electoral College sent a letter to Director of National Intelligence James Clapper seeking information on foreign interference in the election to judge if Mr. Trump “is fit to serve.” One of those electors is House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s daughter.
“The bipartisan electors’ letter raises very grave issues involving our national security. Electors have a solemn responsibility under the Constitution and we support their efforts to have their questions addressed,” Mr. Podesta said. “We now know that the CIA has determined Russia’s interference in our elections was for the purpose of electing Donald Trump. This should distress every American.”
What should really distress Americans is that the losers are trying to overturn the election results based on little more than anonymous leaks and innuendo. Whatever Russia’s hacking motives, there is no evidence that the emails it turned up were decisive to the election result. Mr. Podesta is citing a CIA judgment that Americans have never seen and whose findings are vaguely public only because one or more unidentified officials chose to relate them to a few reporters last week.

Herself was just not a very good candidate for ANYTHING. The final shot in the pursuit of the Presidency has been denied to Herself, so obviously (to Herself, if nobody else) it was a “rigged game”.
The supporters of Trump, even the only lukewarm ones, saw that only a solid show of support in states that were otherwise marginal, would move the needle far enough to overcome the wide majorities in the “safe” blue states. Even the attempted recounts proved to be an exercise in futility, either because the person requesting the recount, Jill Stein, did not have sufficient standing to make the challenge, or as in Wisconsin, only proved that The Donald gained a slightly greater margin of victory.
Appeals to members of the Electoral College, that they be “faithless” in their vote, largely fell on deaf ears, with the exception of a few narcissistic types who wanted the momentary notoriety. And yet, even those few will finally bow to peer pressure and vote as they were originally directed.
Recount “ALL” the votes from “Outlier” states, California & New York, and you will have a literal heart attack at how millions of votes cast in these states were illegal across the board!!! IMHO.....Trump also won Nevada, New Hamshire, Virginia & Minnesota!!! Democrats are scum & vermin combined!!!
If it were possible to measure, in the kitchen, the ‘brains’ required to administer the American social construct.
One would most likely find that approximately half the population has a ‘cup’, this is less then the apparently necessary ‘pint’ required to function competently in society.
However, what is more distressing is the political type members, appear to be functioning on a ‘thimble-full’ or less.
There appears to be something about the ‘half-life’ of human gray-matter which immediately begins accelerating the break down process once a human wins an election, something about the saying; “of it going to one’s head.” IE Nancy Pelosi, John McCain or more then 500 others in the federal arena and this does not include the staffs.
Really I have met these people over the years, I do not have that words and I think the nightmares created by the shear volume of human stupidity coming from the mouths of the elected, will never go away. The angst appears to be permanent.
“This woman felt so entitled that she thought the White House should be given to her.”
It is all about power.
I watched the BBC presentation of one of Shakespeare’s histories (King Henry VI) Sunday night. It was drama, but the murderous court intrigue was, basically, accurate as to type.
“If this happens it will be a full blown revolution.”
That’s a fact.
Podesta has been close to power for years, effortlessly getting numerous top level, high-powered govt jobs, and he even controls the media.
Podesta got rich trading on insider info, and is paid off for his powerful connections. Podesta received valuable stocks in a Russian-connected energy company.The Saudi Royal Court paid Podesta's PR Group $200,000 for a month-long project to provide “public relations services”. (verified to date).
People paying large sums of money expected payback if Hillary got elected. Powerful money interests could be directing Podesta to overturn the election to insure they get payback.

An electoral college coup? I think this is simply mischief-making. But, IF THAT HAPPENED, what would be appropriate response by elected officials, courts, and citizens?
Let’s examine those LA votes. And Las Vegas. And New York. And the rest of Philly. And all the big blue cities that voted “overwhelmingly” for her. I think that, like Detroit, you’ll find a lot of vote counts that aren’t close to matching up with the number of actual people that voted.
Massive fraud on the part of the Democrats, as usual. Still lost the election. Ha!
They thought Obama would have things rigged for her.

The irony. We need a series of graphics from articles of outraged media mocking Trump for saying the election could be rigged and he would wait and see, to the outrage of the Democrats to Trump saying that, and now to the now complete reversal since Hillary lost (like a timeline so to speak).
Anyway, Trump said he was going to move forward, but maybe he should revisit that special prosecutor.
Sayeth the same people who were worried that DJT wouldn’t honor the election results.....
Isn’t it funny how they discovered the anomalies in the Detroit vote on the aborted recount in MI? Who coulda thunk it?
Lock them up! Lock them up!!
They use that one mental case elector out of TX to call the demand for an intel briefing “bipartisan.” The entire thing is staged. No coincidence Nancy Pelosi’s daughter is one of the 9 Dem signers of the demand letter. No coincidence Podesta publicized its contents within hours. These people are disgraceful.
=============================================
PODESTA'S LUCRATIVE RUSSIAN CONNECTIONS---A leaked Jan. 3, 2014 document shows that Podesta transferred more than 25,000 of 75,000 shares of Joule Technologies---a Russian-connected firm---to Leonidio Holdings LLC. Leonidio Holdings, LLC, is listed w/ an address at his daughter's Megan Rouse’s Shannon Court home in Dublin, California. Rouse operates Megan Rouse Financial Planning from that same address.
The inference is to money laundering, perhaps tax evasion. Suggests that Megan Rouse's father, John Podesta, hid stocks connected to Russia.
Documents show that Podesta received 75,000 shares of Joule Unlimited Technologies......an outfit which was linked to alleged money laundering by the Russian government, according to media reports.

PODESTA FAMILY GORGING AT THE PUBLIC TROUGH
-- Tony and his brother John's PR outfit pocketed 200,000 PER MONTH from the Saudi Royalss; Tony is under FBI investigation
--Podesta's SIL Heather was raking it in from State while John was A TAX-PAID EMPLOYEE AT THE STATE DEPT.
-- Podesta’s daughter's CALI FINANCIAL OUTFIT was the holding place for his lucrative Russian energy company stock.
They are tormenting themselves with Christmas visions of Pres Hillary triumphing through electoral faithlessness. They are painfully stuck in the denial stage of grief. They are twisting in the wind, hanging by a thread, dangling over a cliff, looking down at the fiery pit.
When their pitiful little thread breaks, they will fall into their self made delusional hell on earth where everyday smiling happy normals greet each other on the street with high fives and say, “Isn't America Great Again!”
