UPDATE — GARDNER WALKS! On Monday, the Missouri Office of Disciplinary Counsel ruled that Gardner will face no disciplinary action for her lawlessness that resulted in the removal of popular Missouri Governor Eric Greitens.

Philadelphia late Monday night reported nearly 8,000 newly counted ballots two weeks after Election Day. ...... Snip...... President Trump was up by nearly 700,000 votes in Pennsylvania on election night when crooked officials in Philadelphia and Pittsburg suspended counting. Millions of ballots magically appeared after Election Day giving Joe Biden the lead. Here’s the breakdown of the illegal ballots: Advertisement - story continues below Biden 6,628 (85%) Trump 1,140 (14%) Biden’s statewide PA lead now up to 72,379 votes (1.1%)

That is essentially what Sen. Schumer was saying today if you eliminate the unnecessary and leave only the core of what he was getting at. But it isn't McConnell's job to fix Schiff's intentionally-made mess. And Schumer's hypocrisy was open for all to see: let us railroad Trump in the House and let us railroad him in the Senate as well. Schumer knows that Dems in the House blatantly defied the courts and thumbed their nose at established court precedent as SCOTUS acted rapidly in their role as arbiters between two co-equal branches when Nixon would not hand the tapes...

Five new bills in Congress threaten an unconstitutional federal power grab over elections. No fewer than five bills to increase federal control over American elections have been filed in the 113th Congress. The Obama administration has appointed a bipartisan presidential commission supposedly for the purpose of streamlining election procedures and reducing the long lines. However, even a cursory review of the bills already proposed reveals that passage of these bills would enable an unconstitutional federal power grab over American elections accompanied by drastic reductions in the safeguards against electoral fraud that remain in at least some of the states. The...

A few weeks ago, Obama senior adviser and seasoned Chicago operative David Axelrod joked on MSNBC about election corruption. Asked whether "vote early and often" scams had come to an end in his shady hometown, Axelrod snarked: "Well, certainly on the air." Yuk, yuk, yuk. Behind the scenes, Democrats have been busy faking petition signatures, forging ballots and enlisting medical professionals to authorize fraudulent doctors' notes for liberal teachers-union operatives protesting Republican opponents. It's no laughing matter. This week, four Democratic officials in Indiana were hit with felony charges related to petition fraud in the state's 2008 primary. The prosecutions...

Only 6 percent of Americans believe the stimulus bill passed a year ago this week has created jobs, a CBS News/New York Times poll reported last week. Six percent. Nearly six times as many Americans believe in ghosts as believe President Obama's jobs claims. It isn't hard to see why. All you have to do is go to the government's own website, www.recovery.gov, and look at the numbers. The site reports 1.2 million jobs funded by the stimulus bill by the end of 2009. Note the terminology. That's jobs funded, not created. The administration switched from jobs "created or saved"...

Every president for more than three decades has had to talk with federal prosecutors at one time or another. President-elect Barack Obama may have set a land speed record by giving his first interview to investigators even before taking the oath of office. Mr. Obama sat down last week with four investigators looking into the alleged attempt to sell his former Senate seat. As a witness, rather than a target, Mr. Obama seems to have had an easier time with the experience than some of his predecessors. But it is certainly not the way he wanted to begin his presidency....

The head of a Washington, DC-based organization that promotes ethics in public life is calling on the Senate Ethics Committee to launch an investigation into a possible conflict of interest involving California Senator Dianne Feinstein. The California Democrat resigned from her chairmanship of the Senate Military Construction Appropriations Subcommittee after a report revealed that her husband, San Francisco financier Richard Blum, apparently benefited financially from her votes on the committee. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, questions arose when EG&G Technical Services, a division of the URS Corporation -- partially owned by Blum -- won a $600 million military contract...

In a not-too-surprising development, Democrats and their allies in the more radical elements of political activism believe they have penetrated the town hall forum and will be represented in the audience of so-called “swing voters” at tonight’s debate. According to the Gallop organization, who was responsible for selecting the voters in tonight’s debate audience, the participants may have opinions about the candidates. They may be leaning to one candidate or the other. But they must also have told a Gallup representative that they might still vote for the other guy. The participants were chosen at random through phone interviews conducted...

GOP asks Supreme Court to decide NJ ballot issue Just like 2000, justices could affect course of national politics 10/04/2002 By DAVID JACKSON / The Dallas Morning News WASHINGTON - Once again, the justices of the U.S. Supreme Court have the future of national politics in their hands. Rather than the presidency, control of the U.S. Senate could wind up on the high court docket this time. Republicans on Thursday asked the justices to intervene in a New Jersey ballot dispute, saying the state Supreme Court acted illegally when it allowed a last-minute replacement candidate for Sen. Robert Torricelli....
