Team Trump’s legal arguments veering into paranoid kook-land (NeverTrumper Alert)
NY Post ^ | 11/27/2020 | Jonah Goldberg

Posted on 11/28/2020 12:51:46 AM PST by Oshkalaboomboom

Sen. Joseph McCarthy liked to insist he had evidence of Communists in the government, but he couldn’t show you the names right now. The number of Communist infiltrators on his secret list changed from speech to speech.

Listening to President Trump’s legal team claim over and over again that they have voluminous evidence that the election was stolen, it occurred to me that we’re in a kind of repeat McCarthy era. Only this time, to borrow from that old-school Communist Karl Marx, history is repeating itself not as tragedy but as farce.

Take Sidney Powell, a former federal prosecutor who became a right-wing darling as the lawyer for Michael Flynn, Trump’s 24-day national-security adviser. Trump repeatedly touted her as a member of his elite legal team, a group nicknamed Strike Force.

Powell has hinted darkly that a state-of-the-art computer hacking program masterminded by the late Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez was used to hand the election to Biden, with the help of Cuba, George Soros, “likely” China and other “Communistic” forces. Powell subscribes to the view, pushed by pro-Trump lawyer Lin Wood, that the outgoing president actually got 70 percent of the popular vote and 400 Electoral College votes.

To Powell’s credit, she actually provided some “evidence” for this: a meandering affidavit from an anonymous whistleblower who begins his or her fevered meanderings, “I am an adult of sound mine.” No wonder Powell hasn’t released any more evidence.

“Sen. Joseph McCarthy liked to insist he had evidence of Communists in the government, but he couldn’t show you the names right now.”

He was right...there WERE communists.
And there WAS fraud in the election.

Jonah Goldberg should be ashamed of himself.

This guy and his assault on the great Sidney Powell as a “right-wing darling” is the kind of attack you expect from communists.

That’s how far down the toilet Jonah Goldberg finds himself with his Never Trumper globalist-paid pals.

His mom won’t talk to him anymore.

Who cares what someone who just campaigned and voted for Hillary and a senile Communist has to say?

Clowns like Jonah have no clue about the gravity of stealing one’s vote.

Amen.

Massive Dem voter fraud in a presidential election means massive fraud for lesser offices...

On the bright side, Dems' brazenness trying to steal 2020 actually gives us a treasure trove
of evidence as to their MO for stealing lesser offices. We now have a yardstick to measure the fraud.

AND THIS States that "officially" certify Biden victories are in hot water ....
.......they used tax-paid govt resources and personnel to perpetrate a fraud on taxpayers.

I used to read Florence King’s “Misanthrope’s Corner.” Alas, she left us in 2016. She was a good writer, very funny.

The communists number one technique to discredit is to accuse their enemy of mental deficiency.

Never believe anyone who accuses another of mental defect. The accuser is normally a communist.

If not for his mommy Lucianne, Matt Drudge, and a stained blue dress,

Jonah G. would be known as “unknown blogger #34,582,017.”

Communist activists have an intensive training in lying and rhetorical controversies , labelling adversaries as “fascists” or mentally ill .
The fact is that communist ideology has been widely spread into western societies , including USA , by different ways ( schools , universities , cinema , medias , migrants .....and politics too ) .

Joseph McCarty was not as bad as they try to picture him

how the NY Post has turned.

it first became evident when they released almost nothing from Hunter Biden’s laptop and even had other FakeNewsMSM saying Post writers didn’t want their names on the little they did report.

there they were with a real BOOM, and they flunked it.

since then, it’s been following the Murdoch anti-Trump agenda.

in Australia, Murdoch’s news.com.au website is literally full of attacks on Trump.

the globalists have virtually complete control of the FakeNewsMSM now.

Jonah’s dishonesty is epic. If mammoth ballot fraud is not evident to observers then the observer is willfully blind.

Can someone please answer me this? If these people have access to the same info that is being proposed by Powell et al...clear evidence of fraud... are they simply stupid... don’t care... or are they not getting the info itself... I ponder this every night since the election as I sip my rum... I can forgive stupid... but knowing and not caring is unforgivable... and I have no room in my life for them... sorry for the rant..
