McConnell Says Mob That Attacked Capitol Was 'Fed Lies'
NewsMax ^ | January 19, 2021 | Newsmax Wires

U.S. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Republican, said in a speech on the Senate floor Tuesday that "the mob was fed lies" before the violent Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. "They were provoked by the president and other powerful people,"...McConnell last week said he would listen to the arguments presented during the Senate trial before deciding how to vote on the impeachment charge of inciting an insurrection that resulted in the siege of the Capitol.

I think Mitch is going off the deep end.

No just settling back into his safe swamp wallow.

It's bad enough that the left blamed President Trump for all of the police killings and riots, and everything else that happens in democrat ruined cities, without the GOP joining in.

No mention of the efforts President Trump made to help the cities.

I heard public servant Mitch is worth over 23 million. How much money has the Chao family made doing business with the CCP?

And what about Mitch's campaign contributions from Dominion?

“Never been more proud of Hannity. Said today McConnel should be replaced. And that if this is the post Trump GOP, he’s not interested in it. Rush Limbaugh started bringing up M’s wife’s Chinese financial connections.”

The GOPe did the same thing when President Reagan left office. They sought to rid the party of his memory and his policies. They failed at the former and succeeded in the latter. The GOPe has never liked Conservatives. Rush has spent many hours and many programs talking about this over his 30+ years on the air.

Where did Sidney get her info about the Frankfurt servers and the numbers that said POTUS won in a landslide? Does anyone know? Far as I can tell none of this has panned out.

I don’t believe a thing Lin Wood says anymore - wondering if he’s a double agent. One day he’s saying Pence s/b executed and the next he was saying POTUS will be executed. He made us look like a bunch of nutcases. And then we had Mike Lindell - now how would he be privy to this information?

The only thing I’ve seen in writing is Peter Navarro’s report which does indicate the election is stolen but no one is paying the least bit of attention and seems to be all the baloney on our side REALLY worked against us.

I think DJT won - but the loudmouths didn’t have the proof they were claiming and that hurt.

Prove a single lie Mitch. Someone is lying, either the Trump team is lying or you are.

ive supported Senator McConnell but this is TOO DARNED MUCH!

for him to even hint that Biden won a fair and square election is UNACCEPTABLE to the extreme. We all saw what happened. This Big Lie technique to try to paper over, cover up the Election Theft of the Century.....means only that Senator McConnell has been bought out. Him and Barr and a few more Big Lie liars with R’s after their names is the perfect prescription for the DemoCommieNazi party’s controllers .... trying to make the world forget what they did. It will not work and we will NOT let them get away with this smoothly, even (as I assume) their 20,000 machine guns in WashDC will succeed in securing the place long enough for Mr. Biden to be “sworn in”

Yes, we were fed lies.

We were told that Trump colluded with Russia, but that was a lie.

We were told that the info from Hunter Biden’s laptop was “hacked” and that was a lie.

We were told that there are strong safeguards to protect the integrity of US elections, and that was a lie too.

I was listening to a newscast talking about how they are going to share power in the Senate. I laughed thinking,
“share? — It’s truly the Uni Party!”.

In at least one reported 2020 voting fraud incident, election officials hand-counted votes
then put the ballots through the machine and came up with MORE BIDEN VOTES than the hand-counts showed.

The flabbergasted officials redid the process——and again the machine came up with MORE votes for Biden

It’s in black and white-—— in their training manual:
<><> The Dominion tallying system is engineered with a WEIGHTED VOTE option.
<><> You enter a percentage that you want to apply to votes in a particular race;
<><> Dominion machines will increase the vote total by that percentage.
Is this used for anything else but to steal elections?

Dominion voting software can permit staff to manually adjust ballot returns during counting process
Process of “adjudication” allows for “resolution of voter intent.”

Voting software deployed by the election hardware company Dominion Voting Systems can allow election staffers to manually adjust tally amounts while reviewing scanned ballot images, a process that the company says allows for “resolution of voter intent” in cases where ballot marks are unclear.

Dominion has been at the center of tumultuous controversy since the election amid reports of glitchy and/or unreliable voting software and hardware. The company has a presence in a majority of U.S. states, including critical battleground states in which Democratic challenger Joe Biden has been declared the winner by major media outlets.

President Trump has suggested that malfeasance by Dominion is responsible for the narrow edge in posted vote totals that Biden holds in those states. Dominion, meanwhile, has unequivocally denied any wrongdoing or errors within its machines.

“No credible reports or evidence of any software issues exist,” the company has stated on its website. “Dominion equipment is used by county and state officials to tabulate ballots. Human errors related to reporting tabulated results have arisen in a few counties, including some using Dominion equipment, but appropriate procedural actions have been taken by the county to address these errors were made prior to the canvass process.”

The company also stated that “vote deletion/switching assertions” that have circulated since the election are “completely false.”

‘Anybody who has Dominion has this’

The company has claimed that “it is not possible for a bad actor to change election results without detection.” Dominion does, meanwhile, allow at least one avenue for manual adjustment of vote tallies as part of a process known as “adjudication.”

Santa Clara County, California, as part of its agreement with Dominion Voting Systems, stipulates that the company’s software must allow county staff “to adjust tally based on review of scanned ballot images.”

Evelyn Mendez, the public information officer for the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters, said that “the wording [in the contract] is a little weird,” but that it refers to a provision meant to ensure that “adjudication” of uncertain votes can occur.

Adjudication, Mendez told Just the News, is used in circumstances such as when there’s a contest in which a single candidate must be chosen yet “someone votes for two.”

“It’s the process of looking at the ballot and determining, ‘Did the voter mean to do that’?” she said.

“If someone puts in a dot instead of a checkmark,” she added, “or if they didn’t bubble it the right way, our staff are looking at the ballot and confirming what’s correct.”

Mendez, who stressed that staffers are looking not at actual ballots but at scanned images of them, said that the process is performed by two individuals.

“Two people, one on the mouse and one on the clicker, are looking at the same screen, talking about the same ballot, determining the voter’s intent,” she said. “It’s a manual view of what voters meant to do. If staffers can’t figure out what to do, it goes to another level where further county officials can adjudicate it.”

Mendez confirmed that adjudication adjustments are done manually by staffers.

McConnell is just adding a few more nails to the coffin of the Republican party.
