Republicans continue to embrace Trump's election lie at rightwing summit (barf for thee, but read with glee)
The Guardian ^ | 27/2/21 | Sam Levine

Republicans have continued to embrace the myth of a stolen election at the annual rightwing conclave of the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), underscoring how the party continues to sustain the baseless idea months after Donald Trump’s loss in the 2020 race and the deadly assault on the Capitol.

This year’s gathering of some of the party’s most fervent supporters has a staggering seven sessions focused on voter fraud and election-related issues. Several have inflammatory titles. “Other culprits, why judges and media refuse to look at the evidence,” was the name of one panel discussion on Friday. “The left pulled the strings, covered it up, and even admits it,” was another. “Failed states (GA, PA, NV, oh my!)” is the title of another scheduled for this weekend.

Several speakers on Friday repeated debunked falsehoods about the election. Deroy Murdock, a Fox News contributor, repeated the lie that there were “mysterious late-night ballot dumps” that swung the election for Joe Biden and that there were vehicles with out-of-state license plates unloading ballots in the early hours of the election. Both of those claims have been debunked. Advertisement

Stoking fears about fraud and advocating for stricter voting rules has become commonplace among Republicans in recent years, but in the wake of Trump’s presidency – and his loss to Biden – it has become a common rallying cry in the party. Even so, some observers said the focus on fanning the flames of the conspiracy theory at CPAC was still alarming.

Did this guy write these kinds of articles over the 4 years of the Russian hoax?

A “rightwing summit”?

The Communist chattering campaign continues.

“Baseless allegations!”

“Debunked falsehoods!”

The new Inquisition. Swear your unwavering belief that JoBlo won it all on pain of death.

Matthew Braun, a federal judge in Pennsylvania, wrote in December as he tossed out an effort from Trump and his allies to block certification of the election results there. “Instead, this court has been presented with strained legal arguments without merit and speculative accusations … unsupported by the evidence.”

Unsupported by the evidence?

How would they know?

Over seventy courts refused to even allow the evidence to be argued.

That in itself is proof of conspiracy.

It’s even worse than that. The lawsuits were not even allowed to have discovery.

There was plenty of prima facie evidence of shenanigans, but how do you prove election fraud / voter fraud if someone else (election boards) has complete control over most of the things that you need to prove your case (ballots, machines, voter books, etc.)?

Communism is a global movement. It has propaganda organs everywhere including in UK. Indeed, it was largely these British propagandists that provoked Eric Arthur Blair (“George Orwell”) to writing in the first place.

Noem was awesome and so was DeSantis. These are the 2. We have to keep them from canceling each other out. DeSantis/ Noem is the rock star ticket.

Useful idiots at the Guardian still embrace Godless Communism after miserable failure for all mankind.

Yep.

Orwell was frightened by the Stalinists he saw in the West who were quite willing to overlook his horrors, abuses, and injustices.

The evidence was visible to the naked eye, except to the willfully blind, deaf and dumb.

I am told by one of my sons that Godless Communism has never been tried. By a cousin that it keeps getting interrupted by dictators. By an old family friend that it does work, and the only objections to it are on religious grounds. I regularly listen to Twilight Zone radio adaptations as I work, and thus far these explanations beat anything that Rod Serling has ever come up with.

I’ve heard them proclaim that REAL Communism has never been tried.

They still love Castro and Che and Chavez and Stalin and Mao and North Vietnamese military.

They carried the flags, they quoted the books (and even passed around Mao’s Little Red Book).

They still love dictatorships and need to be called out as anyone would likewise call out a neonazi or fan of Adolf Hitler.

The party that allowed the Democrats to pull off this election
steal, is responsible for this narrative being viable at this
time.

Now people in the party are sure they can change what hasn’t
changed in 60 years.
