According to LS, it’s over for POTUS?

[ClearCase_guy]

Personally, I don’t find LS to have a good track record.

[usafa92]

Yes. Larry has been a realist about the situation the entire time. That reality is, nobody to this point has done anything courageous or what would be required to do the right thing. They won’t start now. The GOP are cowards, always have been. He’s consistently said the Legislatures would need to fix this. They haven’t and they won’t.

[DJ MacWoW]

Nope! Then there’s a closed door meeting. It isn’t over.

9) According to the source, the Trump goal was to get the fraud debated in session.

10) However, the House will not debate. It will toss the objection in 30 seconds.

11) The Senate “may” take up to 2 hours to debate.

12) In the end, the certified slates will be accepted

[aMorePerfectUnion]

Unfortunately, Larry has become a doomer.

I’ve been saying this for weeks; Pence may or may not do the right thing and reject those fraudulent EC votes. But if he does cave, it is not the end. President Trump still has options. Nuclear options. Insurrection act and/or martial law.

"According to LS, it’s over for POTUS?"

It's been over. Biden is going to be sworn in on Jan. 20. That's just the way it is.

[Lod881019]

Larry’s another guy who post election has kinda been wanting to kick Trump to the curb so he can keep his precious senate

[Guenevere]

He’s been a naysayer for a while.....

Video of the proceedings on 1/6/17 when Biden was presiding. Right out of the gate, Alabama’s votes got an objection because “not legally certified” and of course “Russia!” which elicited much booing. Biden then said the objection had to be in writing and signed by a member of the House and by a senator. No senator had signed it so “the objection can not be entertained.” This was followed by other objections with the same result. Incidentally Biden clearly had more of his marbles then than he does now.

“According to LS, it’s over for POTUS?”

It was over Nov 4. It’s been you know what and bananas ever since. There was never going to be an overturn of the result that came through on that night. I’ve been in full prep mode for the Biden presidency ever since. Anybody who has waited till now to start preparing your finances, family and security has a LOT of quick catching up to do.

[DJ MacWoW]

Under the ‘Electoral Count Act of 1877,’ if one senator and one representative reject the vote, the process will be paused while Congress debates on the matter. Hang in there!

List of GOP lawmakers to object during electoral college certification process grows

A BIDEN WIN WOULD BE AN AWARD TO CHINA FOR INVADING US USING COVID 19

Every time an American looked at an item for where it was made in it came from China. Now China’s reliance making everything was being threatened by a change in leadership in America which was a major consumer of those products. When Americans hailed their leaders decision to make many of them in their country US. Their politburo worried.

Worse yet opponents to the Chinese regime in power had its citizens protesting its policies , as in Hong Kong, since that change in American leadership wave the American flag and present Trump’s name when doing so. All of which presented those in power the need to destroy that leader Donald Trump.
Would a runaway plague created by a nation which could threaten populations of an enemy cause them to react by demanding extreme restriction of movement by its population to prevent its spread ? Thus wind up fragmenting its economy and create defeat for that leader’s upcoming election

Americans better WISE UP/
Key swamp demons were making fortunes when they allowed US companies in a number of industries including pharma, computer; and electrical as well metal fabrication components even bicycles relocate their factories in China . To the point where China was our sole supplier. The money the CCP has now comes from US .If we play our Chinese c
.heckers right we can really turn things around for the better not only here but in China as well.
Check out this recent posting in Free Republic.com which the MSM and social venues will spike; http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3890312/posts. will be stopped by Biden and hailed by Walmart http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3920123/posts

I hate this guy, he’s such a buzzkill.

Low density defensive/offensive operation plan for post installation of Communist government in USA:

1. Tannerite in large quantities placed in large fire extinguisher bodies, placed in strategic locations around your property.

2. Range cards and rifle locators that bring rounds to those targets day of night without aiming. (Think T&E of machine gun positions in defense.)

3. Map of neighbors who oppose Trump and freedom. These are your initial objectives. Plan night maneuvers to render inoperative, and take over those stores of food.

4. Establish communication chains with friendly neighbors, develop defensive plan for 24/7 security. Do not plan on long term electronic means.

5. Within your immediate neighborhood arrange a 24/7 security rotation, including ROE for bogies and signals to alert all friendlies in case of mass attack.

6. STAGE REHEARSALS. develop contingency plans.

7. Reach out to friendlies on borders of your defensive perimeter on all sides and coordinate signals/frequencies/passwords, etc. Practice passage of lines between defensive zones.

My neighbors and I know what trees come down to block access, schedule of guard duties, passwords, etc. Better late than never FRiends.

PREPARE!!!!!

[wiseprince]

I cam B.S on any lawyer that suggest the VP is powerless. I just don’t think the founders created ceremonial roles. That seem like a new concept

[PhiloBedo]

I have to ask. What about the EO regarding foreign interference ? Didn’t the report come out from DNI that there was, in fact, interference from China, Russia and Iran?

[nwrep]

Yes. Since Nov 4.

LS Twitter thread

1) Just finished a discussion with a pro-Trump congressional source on procedures. Very high.

2) On Jan. 6, all that is needed is 1 senator (Hawley) and 1 Congressman (Brooks) to bring an objection to an elector slate (almost certainly AZ, since that will be the first contested. 

3) The rules are made by the previous congress; the laws already in place bind the procedures.

4) Pence has no authority on his own to accept or reject any slate. According to source, he will turn to the Parliamentarian for a ruling on how to proceed. 

5) This isn't speculation. This is how it was done LAST TIME there was an objection.

In 2016. By Sheila Jackson Lee against Trump electors.

6) The parliamentarian informed veep Joe Biteme (!) that because there was no senator, the objection could not be heard. 

7) With a senator and Congressman objecting, the Parliamentarian then will read the rule, wherein the Senate and House retire to separate chambers to debate the objection.

8) Note: Pence has not done anything except entertain the objection. That's all he is allowed to do. 

9) According to the source, the Trump goal was to get the fraud debated in session.

10) However, the House will not debate. It will toss the objection in 30 seconds.

11) The Senate "may" take up to 2 hours to debate.

12) In the end, the certified slates will be accepted. 

13) Source thinks very few would vote to throw out a certified slate. Even people the source knows personally, including Mike Lee & Ted Cruz, would be unlikely to vote to toss a certified slate.

14) Certainly there won't be 51. 

15) Remember, we very well may NOT have the to GA seats filled, so the final numbers might be 49 Ds (Kelly seated now, Hickenlooper on Jan. 3 ) & only 49 Rs with recounts holding up the 2 GA seats.

16) Pence will NOT be in the senate chamber to break a tie because he cannot --- he presides over the joint session.

17) But my guess is that this final senate vote on AZ will be 92 or 93- about 5. Maybe Blackburn, Cotton, Paul, Cruz, vote against the certified electors.

Doesn't matter: Ds only need 2 Rs. They'll get 30+. 

18) But say the senate miraculously comes up with 51 votes to toss the AZ certified slate.

The House has already voted to accept it. Tie goes to the runner. The House & Senate have to be in agreement to reject a certified slate. 

19) Some of you are saying, "But I read that the House votes by DELEGATION, not by member."

Not for this.

The delegation vote is employed if no one has 270 electoral votes. For the votes on objections, it's by simple majority. 

20) BTW, I asked source about who the Parliamentarian was---House or Senate. "Doesn't matter. They are rule nerds. Extremely impartial."

Sheila Jackson Lee's anti Trump objection went nowhere in 2016.

21) My guess (didn't confirm) is that these debates will be CLOSED. 

22) So don't count on the "media" seeing the fraud or having the uninformed American public see this either. My source said the best that could come was Yertle's election reform commission. . .to which I laughed.

He said "it's easy to get cynical. I have to find a way to keep trying, to not fall into hopelessness."

23) So, after the AZ vote comes back for the certified electors, I asked about the plan cooked up by Yertle & Botoxic to deny further objections.

Source didn't think that would fly because the rules were written. 

24) Again I laughed, and it was admitted that whoever has the votes can do whatever they want, but STRONGLY thought any pre-emptive attempt to stop objections (as is being discussed today) would go nowhere. 

25) This dynamic might change (my opinion, not source's) if GA is decertified and if at least one other state is decertified before 1/6. If Biteme is one de-cert away from not having 270, there is a shot, but it's a very, very long shot.

My sense is that GA is the easiest.

Well, much as I like LS, others disagree. In this instance, I hope LS is wrong.
