NOT intending to spread rumors here, or pump sunshine, etc. Just showing what is out there. What's interesting about this brief article is CNN's lame attempt at "debunking." Simply branding something as false doesn't make it so.

As we go down the rabbit hole which is this disaster of an election, we learn about the man who had access to all the Dominion voting machine's data and security.

NEW YORK — Now that his largely invisible network has suddenly been flooded by fans of President Donald Trump, Newsmax television personality Grant Stinchfield is puffing out his chest. “They don't know what to do with all of us,” Stinchfield said on the air Monday night. “We're killing it here on Newsmax with a tactic they've never tried. It's called the truth, the stone-cold truth, and once you get a taste of it, you will never tolerate being lied to again.” In many cases, the opposite is true. Newsmax, the television arm of a conservative website, has reported falsely that...

You have witnessed the Patriots of these United States Of America stand by and watch, as the American left, and their allies, have pursued radical change, and the destruction of even our most basic values. You have set out to overturn our Constitution, deny us our God given rights, and deny us the Liberty to seek recompense for the injustices of which you have perpetrated upon this great Nation, and it’s people. We have watched as you have claimed racism, and spoke to the intolerance of a Nation, while you destroyed, burned, and looted our cities, in the name of...

With Republicans already in control of 50 Senate seats for at least the next two years, the GOP needs to win just one of those two Georgia Senate seats to hold a slim majority. If Democrats win both and force the 50-50 split, the vice president would cast a 101st vote to break a tie in the Senate..."Democrats have not been shy about what they'll do if Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi run Congress, so it's imperative every freedom-loving American go all in for Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler so they're victorious."

The West African country is training and arming everyday citizens to protect remote communities from terrorist groups. But some fear the strategy will lead to even more violence. KONGOUSSI — Ousséni is proud, and as he looks out at the rust-colored hills in the province of Bam, in north-central Burkina Faso, his face lights up. The 56-year-old farmer doesn't want to use his real name for this article. But having "finally returned" to his village after months of shock and shame, he says also feels at peace in a way he'd no longer thought possible. And that's because Ousséni feels...

A culture of secrecy, fabrication and deceit has cast a heavy shadow over the legacy of the Australian special forces deployment in Afghanistan, with a landmark inquiry recommending 19 soldiers be investigated by police for the "murder" of 39 prisoners and civilians, and the cruel treatment of two others. ... The inquiry said junior soldiers were often required by their patrol commanders to shoot prisoners to get their first kill. This was a practice known as "blooding".

Liberal law professor Alan Dershowitz on Tuesday laid out the Trump campaign's legal strategy for winning the White House through a number of legal challenges. According to Dershowitz, the strategy is to pull electoral votes away from former Vice President Joe Biden. "The clock is a double-edged sword in this election because if they don't have enough time but if they can put forward a sufficiently strong case then they may be able to get some Republican Secretaries of States or legislatures to say, 'Look, we just don't have enough time to certify these electors' and if they can bring...

CNN anchor Chris Cuomo accused President Donald Trump of “lying his ass off” about fraud in the 2020 presidential election. David Gregory said, “There were not widespread irregularities. We should be celebrating the fact that this went off so well in a pandemic. There are always things to look at in terms of irregularities in an election, but there was nothing widespread. There are trial lawyers who are hacks and there are good ones. You know how I know the difference? In this case the good lawyers are getting out of this litigation. They don’t want to be any part...

In an extraordinary turnabout that foreshadows possible legal action, the two GOP members of Wayne County's election board signed affidavits Wednesday night alleging they were bullied and misled into approving election results in Michigan's largest metropolis and do not believe the votes should be certified until serious irregularities in Detroit votes are resolved. The statements by Wayne County Board of Canvassers Chairwoman Monica Palmer and fellow GOP member William C. Hartmann rescinding their votes from a day earlier threw into question anew whether Michigan's presidential vote currently favoring Democrat Joe Biden will be certified. They also signaled a possible legal...
