House Republicans call for Special Counsel to investigate election irregularities
Citizen Free Press ^ | 12/10/2020 | Kane

More than two dozen House Republicans sent a letter to President Trump on Wednesday requesting that the president direct Attorney General William Barr to appoint a special counsel to probe “irregularities” in last month’s general election.



“The American people deserve a definitive resolution to the uncertainty hovering over the outcome of our election, but legitimate questions of voter fraud remain unanswered,” reads the letter, signed by 27 GOP representatives.

Representative Lance Gooden of Texas first wrote and sent the letter on his own last week, but he decided to resend it after other members in his caucus expressed interest in signing their names to it, including Andy Biggs of Arizona, Louie Gohmert of Texas, Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Mo Brooks of Alabama, Ted Budd of North Carolina, and Paul Gosar of Arizona.



“The Department of Justice has been asked on multiple occasions to launch an investigation into this matter, but inaction from the Department along with public comments made by the Attorney General indicate a lack of willingness to investigate the irregularities your campaign and other elected officials across the nation have alleged,” the GOP representatives stated in their letter.



“The appointment of a Special Counsel would establish a team of investigators whose sole responsibility is to uncover the truth and provide the certainty America needs,” the lawmakers said.

If the supreme court doesn’t make Trump president, Trump should appoint 2-3 special councils before he leaves office to saddle Biden with.

At the very same time they should start drawing up Articles Of Impeachment for Biden should that worthless sonovabitch manage to break into OUR White House.

Finding out Biden cheated his way into the White House after he is sworn in will be soooooooo fulfilling.

RE: If the supreme court doesn’t make Trump president,

You can be sure that the SCOTUS won’t “make” anyone President. They’ll punt the case to the individual legislatures of each of the 4 states ( all Majority Republican ), tell them to carefully look at the allegations of fraud, and then choose the electors accordingly.

I’m sure John Durham would get right on it and indict at least a poll worker or two for incorrectly folding a fake ballot.

the legislatures will just rubber stamp whatever the results were, so what’s the point here then?

It’s long PAST TIME (imVho) for any number of SPECIAL COUNSELS to hunt down the 100% CORRUPT DIMocRAT CROOKS, INDICT, CONVICT & IMPRISON them all for long sentences.

That's the reality of special counsels when the deep state is involved.

Has nobody learned from the past couple of decades, that
special councils are where real crimes go to die?

Calling for a special council certifies the person as a total
whack job!

Has anyone heard of a guy named Durham? While not a Special
Council (don’t believe), he seemingly can’t find his ass with both
hands.

Now someone wants a special council tasked with checking out
the 2020 general election?

LOL
