Massive CCP Virus Relief Measure Includes $400 Million Bonanza for Left’s ‘Democracy Reform’ Movement
epoch times ^ | 3/26/2020 | Mark Tapscott

Nestled among the 12 titles and 880 pages of the $2.2 trillion “Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act of 2020,” approved unanimously by the Senate late March 25, is a paragraph sending $400 million to state governments “to help prepare for the 2020 election.”

The provision’s senatorial proponents promise it will enable state election officials to increase the ability of citizens nationwide “to vote by mail, expand early voting and online registration, and increase the safety of voting in-person by providing additional voting facilities and more poll-workers,” according to a summary prepared by Democratic staff members of the Senate Appropriations Committee.

It accounts for a mere 0.018 percent of the overall measure’s $2.2 trillion in federal expenditures, but the provision is “a rare victory” gained by “an unusually intense and coordinated lobbying campaign by some of the major players in the democracy reform movement,” according to its chief media voice, The Fulcrum.

The Fulcrum is published by Issue One, a Washington-based nonprofit advocacy group that grew out of the drive for public funding of congressional campaigns and growing fears among liberal activists that corrupt “dark money is flooding our elections.”

Officially, the $400 million was included due to worries that the CCP virus would mar the November election as millions of Americans wouldn’t vote for fear of being exposed to the deadly disease.

The reason the cure was stimied the last two weeks was to drag this Republic Killer across the finish line. Imagine if it started curing everyone the last two weeks.

Vote by mail. The most easily hijackable voting system. This, if it is part of the final bill is designed to end Republican election wins once and for all if it becomes universal or even a large portion of the vote. It legalizes and institutionalizes SocialDemocrat vote fraud and moves it to the Big Time.

I fully expect the Democrat controlled major cities in most states, instead of only a few as before, to add sufficient votes to any state tally to overcome any Republican majority in the rest of the state. 2016 went the way it did because of incompetent vote fraud in Broward and Palm Beach Counties in Florida. Florida is probably under control for a while but that will spread to all the cities in 2020. The SocDems do not intend to allow the Revolution to be stymied again.

The Democrats will make a major effort to steal all the elected Offices in 2020. From dog catcher to President. Weather they will be successful remains yet to be seen. What is certain though is that if they succeed to any degree, the Republic will not survive.

Being left unanswered is the question ," Why is public money going to advance the Left, a/k/a, Communists,Socialists causes?

For politicians, bureaucrats and DC ideologues, this is a historic, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to rob America blind.

Breathe deep,
the gathering gloom.
Watch lights fade from every room,
Bedsitter people look back and lament.
Another day is useless in a years spent.
Lonely man cries for love and have none.
Senior citizens wish they were young.

Just what the truth is, I can’t say anymore.

I remember a quote that has stuck with me for many decades: the idea that in every catastrophe, individuals sense the opportunity for - and often find - a personal advantage. (I may have gotten it from Thomas Mann's 'Death in Venice'.)

Seems like both sides of the aisle are cognizant of the opportunities in this 'catastrophe'.

Yep.

Detroit, a usually reliable stronghold of vote fraud, dropped the ball bigly in 2016.

They'll have Philadelphia back at 140% turnout in all precincts in 2020.
