Congress certifies Joe Biden as next US president
The Guardian ^ | 7 January 2021 | Tom McCarthy

Posted on 01/07/2021 1:00:56 AM PST by Cronos

Texas comes after Tennessee in the alphabetical list of states. Trump’s victory there is announced by senator Amy Klobuchar. Pence invites objections. None is heard. Texas’ 38 electoral votes go to Trump.

Utah’s six votes go to Trump too. No objections there. Republicans have decided not to fight over Vermont’s three electoral votes going to Biden. Nor do they object to Virginia’s 13 votes going to Biden. Nor do they object to Washington’s 12 electoral votes going to Biden.

The teller, senator Amy Klobuchar, reports: “Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will be the president and the vice president according to the ballots that have been given to us.”

Applause in the room.

Pence says Biden “has received 306 votes” and Trump “has received 232 votes.”

“The announcement of the state of the vote by the president of the senate shall be deemed as sufficient of the election of the president and the vice-president,” Pence says.

It’s done. Closing prayer.

These weren’t Trump supporters. These were the Antifa members that were dropped off in a bus, and were let in through the unlock doors of Capitol Hill in an orchestrated attempt stop the peaceful protests and prevent the truth from getting out.

Congress may certify but that will not get the support of Americans.

Starve the beast everyone. In fact, if you can move yourself from the black ink column to the red ink column, do it.

SOURCE John Solomon https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/elections/congress-certifies-election-evidence-these-voting-irregularities-loom

EXCERPT——More than 100 state legislators from the battleground states of Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona and Georgia sent an 11th hour letter Tuesday to Vice President Mike Pence saying they are not yet confident in the declarations that Joe Biden won their state and want 10 days to investigate further. The letter includes a massive index of evidence of irregularities, some of which have been validated by court rulings, official government documents or sworn affidavits.

<><>Wisconsin illegally permitted large numbers of residents to evade voter ID requirements by simply declaring they were “indefinitely confined” at home because of COVID-19. Wisconsin’s Supreme Court ruled in December that state officials violated the law when they allowed this mass exemption without getting required legislative approval, putting in doubt as many as 200,000 votes in a state where Biden and President Trump were separated by 200,000.

<><> Officials in Fulton County, Georgia (includes city of Atlanta), prematurely moved data cards from 36 voting machines before voting ended. State officials had advised the county that the cards should be removed just before they reached 10,000 votes, the apparent storage limit for the cards, but county officials admit they removed cards with as few as 3,000 counted votes and locked them in a cabinet. The exact reasons and chain of custody are not fully clear.

<><> Jessy Jacob, a career Detroit city employee with three decades of experience, testified both in an affidavit and at a legislative hearing that for weeks leading to Election Day and at least one full day after, she and her fellow election workers were instructed to manipulate and alter ballots and voter rolls, including falsely backdating ballot requests and actual ballots. City officials have not provided evidence to contest her claims.

<><> Multiple GOP election observers in states like Georgia, Michigan and Pennsylvania have testified they were wrongly dismissed on election night or kept from being able to provide bipartisan oversight as has been required and embraced for decades.

<><> Wisconsin did not, as required by state law, purge between 100,000 and 200,000 outdated voter registrations from its rolls before the November contest as had been done in prior elections. Litigation concerning this oversight is ongoing.

<><> Georgia state officials acknowledged last month they have 250 open cases of alleged voter fraud or irregularities from the 2020 election and rolled in additional state investigators to help.

<><> In Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, state election officials allowed county clerks to “cure” or “fix” errant ballots without rejecting them though the state legislatures had not approved such mechanisms. Some counties engaged in “curing” while others did not, fearful such activity was illegal.

There are numerous other claims, like those of the Data Integrity Group, who have offered analyses of vote count irregularities, as well as videotape of apparent ballots in suitcases or trucks that have not been fully explained or investigated.

But those irregularities that have already been documented give many state legislators heartburn and a desire to investigate further in the new year as to whether the documented problems could have changed the outcomes. Wisconsin, in particular, is gaining momentum for further investigations

“We know laws were broken,” Wisconsin State Rep. Joe Sanfelippo said. “That’s indisputable. What we don’t know is whether the breaking of those laws affected the outcome of the election. The U.S. Constitution gives us authority to determine how elections are run. All of that assumes the law is going to be followed by those who implement it. And now that we know the law wasn’t followed in this election, so as state legislators is it up to us to determine did that have any effect on the outcome, to hold those people who didn’t follow the law accountable and to make sure in the future those laws are followed.”

“Starve the beast everyone. In fact, if you can move yourself from the black ink column to the red ink column, do it.”

Already done, though I’m not going into debt, just cutting any extraneous spending for the next 4 years - for starters. I survived 0bama, I can survive Slow Joe.

Also, change your voter registration to Independent, and make SURE your CongressCritters know it!

F the GOPe Quislings!

I didn't mean to go into personal debt, I meant, make yourself on the receiving end of “entitlements” rather than the funding side of it.

Got it. I have 1 year & 6 months until I can draw SS. I’m drawing it at 62. (Retired at 56.)

Also, FWIW, Wisconsin doesn’t have you ‘register’ with either party, though SOME states do.

THOSE are the FReepers I’m reaching out to, to change party affiliation if possible.

Unfortunately my State, Florida, is a closed primary. If I go independent I have no voice in choosing the candidate. My husband says he'll never vote again. Very sad.

Yep, sure is. I said yesterday, I feel bad for young conservatives for my time here on earth is much less than theirs. All I can say is, Hell must be huge because a whole lot of people have just signed up for their eternity within.

Change your voter registration to Independent, and make SURE your CongressCritters know it!
