Everyone knew this was coming…. The Feds are attempting to get involved in the Maricopa County ballot audit. The DOJ Civil Rights Division has sent a letter [pdf available here] to the Arizona State Senate claiming their review of Lawfare statements and media reports may show evidence of auditing issues that violate federal laws.
Last week a group of Lawfare activists [SEE HERE], including New York University Law School – which leads to Andrew Weissmann, asked the DOJ to get involved.
The ridiculous letter from the Biden DOJ goes on to cite media reports from the Washington Post as evidence to justify their involvement.
Remember, previously the DOJ narrative was that each state makes up its own election rules. Now the DOJ is saying, falsely, that Arizona might be breaking federal laws.
Their first concern [as predicted] centers around ballot security. Again, remember, the Maricopa County election board would not let the auditors use the county tabulation center [SEE HERE] so the ballots and equipment had to be moved to Veterans Memorial Coliseum (AZ State Fairgrounds). Now the DOJ is citing that move as a potential issue for the security of the ballots and auditing procedures.
The first issue relates to a number of reports suggesting that the ballots, elections systems, and election materials that are the subject of the Maricopa County audit are no longer under the ultimate control of state and local elections officials, are not being adequately safeguarded by contractors at an insecure facility, and are at risk of being lost, stolen, altered, compromised or destroyed.
Federal law creates a duty to safeguard and preserve federal election records. The Department is charged with enforcement of provisions of the Civil Rights Act of 1960, 52 U.S.C. §§ 20701-20706. This statute requires state and local election officials to maintain, for twenty-two months after the conduct of an election for federal office, “all records and papers” relating to any “act requisite to voting in such election.”
The DOJ’s second issue is even more obtuse. They cite federal election law for voters rights, as the DOJ is worried that auditors will visit -and intimidate- people and places who have a record of multiple ballots from the same address or non residence:
The second issue relates to the Cyber Ninjas’ statement of work for this audit. Among other things, the statement of work indicates that the contractor has been working “with a number of individuals” to “identify voter registrations that did not make sense, and then knock on doors to confirm if valid voters actually lived at the stated address.” … these federal preservation and retention requirements for elections records is to “secure a more effective protection of the right to vote.”
The statement of work also indicates that the contractor will “select a minimum of three precincts” in Maricopa County “with a high number of anomalies” in order “to conduct an audit of voting history” and that voters may be contacted through a “combination of phone calls and physical canvassing” to “collect information of whether the individual voted in the election” in November 2020. Statement of Work at ¶ 5.1. This description of the proposed work of the audit raises concerns regarding potential intimidation of voters. The Department enforces a number of federal statutes that prohibit intimidation of persons for voting or attempting to vote. For example, Section 11(b) of the Voting Rights Act provides that “No person, whether acting under color of law or otherwise, shall intimidate, threaten, or coerce, or attempt to intimidate, threaten, or coerce any person for voting or attempting to vote, or intimidate, threaten, or coerce, or attempt to intimidate, threaten, or coerce any person for urging or aiding any person to vote or attempt to vote…”
Both issues are moot; but the DOJ effort to intervene in the audit should not be taken lightly. Democrats in Arizona, the Lawfare group, the media and the DOJ are all working together to undermine the audit.
The Arizona State Senate should tell the DOJ to go pound sand; however, the DOJ effort is really an attempt to build a framework to undermine the results of the audit if/when fraud is uncovered.
The DOJ is making a concerted effort to assist the Biden administration in retaining the fraud. That’s the bottom line.

We all know where this is coming from…
The real fraud will be found as people go to physical locations. When I did this for 2 years in the early 1990s in Cuyahoga County Ohio it was astounding.
Tom Hays, the Board of Elections Director, told me in his office “What do you expect me to do, go to addresses?”. To which I replied “I did. And there are dead people voting for 10 years and people voting from Lake Erie “.
That is what the Democrats are afraid of in my opinion.
Lake County, next door, has had tip top Elections and registrations for decades because the head of the Elections Board saw to it. Thank gosh not every County Elections board is corrupt. It can be done.
Steven Crowder held two shows this week where he reported on voter fraud. He must be right on target because he was banned on Twitter. > Feb. 26, 2021, Gateway Pundit
Steven Crowder spent two shows this week going over voter fraud that he and his staff personally proved. He went to hundreds of addresses across several swing states establishing that many of the addresses and names of voters did not exist, some addresses were at abandoned lots, and somewhere there was a freeway among many others. He must be close to the target because his video was banned on Twitter. He found a very high percentage of fraud.
[Rest at link]
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/02/steven-crowder-revealed-voter-fraud-past-week-show-louder-crowder-twitter-banned/
I watched those shows. His experience was exactly what I witnessed 25 years ago. If the GOP had listened to me we would not be in this situation. People really have no idea how long and how wide spread this voter fraud is.
I had binders full of fraud in 1 county in Ohio.
Nancy Pelosi tells Judy Woodruff that the dem chances are much better to keep the House if they pass HR1.

No need to vote on it. It’s blatantly unconstitutional. If they want to implement it, all they need to do is mandate it, and maybe tie implementation to federal funds.
Any congress-member with integrity would never agree to vote on it and would instead stage a very public walk-out. Which is why, of course, all republicans will eventually vote on it.
Under the Constitution, THE STATES govern elections, not the feds.
For the feds to pass HR1, they would FIRST have to pass a full constitutional amendment, 2/3 of each house of Congress, 3/4 of the states, in 7 years time, giving control of elections to the federal gov’t.
No way will that happen. Every state would be well within its rights to nullify such an illegal law.
No, Ms. Pelosi, YOU MAY NOT DO THIS. NOW…STFU.
So would the chances of Kim Jong Un and every other tin-pot dictator out there. The last US election would not even pass the smell test of the US State Department:

The following are examples of the most egregious, widely observed and reported examples of election-day fraud on November 21, 2004, in Ukraine:
Illegal Use of Absentee Ballots: According to the respected NGO “Committee of Voters of Ukraine” (CVU), massive electoral fraud was committed through the illegal use of absentee voter certificates. For example, people were caught in Dnipropetrovsk and Sumy oblasts with their pockets stuffed with blank absentee ballots that they were using to vote at multiple polling stations.
Opposition Observers Ejected: Observers from Our Ukraine and other opposition groups were expelled from most polling stations in eastern Ukraine on Election Day. For example, in Territorial Election Commission (TEC) district number 42 in Donetsk oblast, Our Ukraine observers were kicked out of all but a few polling stations.
North Korean-Style Turnout in the East: Turnout in the pro-Yanukovych eastern oblasts was unnaturally high. In several electoral districts, turnout for the run-off round increased by 30 to 40 percent over the first round. In Luhansk oblast, the reported turnout rate hit nearly 96 percent — a number that, to quote the OSCE, even Stalinist North Korea would envy. A similar turnout rate was reported in Donetsk oblast, where 98 percent of the votes went to hometown candidate Prime Minister Yanukovych.
Mobile Ballot Box Fraud: In the second round of the election, the number of voters who supposedly cast ballots at home using mobile ballot boxes was double that of the first round. Much of this voting occurred without observers being present and was massively fraudulent. In Mykolayiv oblast, for example, nearly 35 percent of the oblast’s voters purportedly cast their ballots “at home.”
Computer Data Allegedly Altered To Favor Yanukovych: There were credible reports showing that that Yanukovych supporters gained illegal access to the Central Election Commission’s computer system and illegally altered vote tabulation data being transmitted by TECs to the CEC.
Reports of Opposition Fraud: Yanykovych’s supporters allege that Yushchenko’s supporters stuffed ballot boxes in western Ukraine. But the reports and evidence of pro-Yanukovych fraud greatly outweighed those indicated for Yushchenko.
This massive ballot-box stuffing, fake turnout figures, and other forms of fraud and abuse allowed the authorities to create a victory for their candidate that almost certainly would not have been possible in a free and fair election. The final figures announced by the Central Election Commission (CEC) gave Prime Minister Yanukovych with 49.46 percent of the vote over opposition candidate Yushchenko with 46.61 percent. It is impossible to know what the real numbers were, but a large-scale (20,000 respondents), nation-wide anonymous exit poll conducted by a consortium of three highly respected research organizations (partially funded by the United States Government) projected Yushchenko the winner with 53 percent versus 44 percent for Yanukovych. Other exit polls and parallel vote counts indicated a Yushchenko victory, although by lesser amounts.

See any similarities? (raoflmao) And HR1 will make that all legitimate.
Really glad you mentioned Ukraine. I believe the same people who installed Biden after the Maidan installed him here.
It wasn’t ignorance that prevented them from listening to you. It wasn’t lack of trust or incompetence.
It was intentional. It was criminal negligence. It was by design.
Republicans have been buying votes too. That’s why few of them stood by Trump and demanded investigations. They would be demanding investigations into themselves, and they know they wont’ stand to scrutiny.
That’s why the only solution is to abandon the republican party. It is as corrupt as Washington DC is corrupt.
You have no idea what it takes to start a new party, in time, work, obstruction, and expense. I was somewhat involved in the ’94 Perot effort for the Reform Party.
There has been some good success with the Deplorables taking over their local party orgs. A lot of the RINOs are walking away, thinking we won’t stay.
So I’m encouraged, better to do this now, in a bottom-up org, that start anew.
Yes! The ballot access rules are different in every state–it’s a nightmare trying to get all that together…and in a few months? Not gonna happen.
You are exactly right, Please!
I know, I was threatened by a sitting judge who became a congresswoman. Martin Hoke’s Chief of Staff, Mike Connell, asked if it was my cause.
Everyone is in on this fraud. I lived it.
It just goes to show that THE PEOPLE are the solution.
The GOP is in on the scam. That’s why they never really tried to pass any federal voter ID law.
Sorry, but I gave up on the gateway puntist as they removed my ability to post labeling it Spam after getting over too many targets.
All other posting sites cleared up the misinformation spam smear EXCEPT the Puntist which after over a year still have me unable to post as “Spam”.
Never give your enemies money, and I consider them enemies of the USA and it’s Constitution which I support and am sworn to protect.
Maybe I’ll read a post that is saved in an archive, but I try to never go there any more.
I was banned a while ago too for something pretty innocucous.
The Hoft brothers are overly emotional, IMO. Been reading them on and off for years. They often don’t do their due diligence, either.
So I’m not surprised…I know one is a homosexual, and often, they are emotionally unstable (having worked with them for years).
“When the flak is rising up hard and heavy, you know that you must be over the target …”
Election-integrity laws, “election contests,” and explicit provisions for independent auditing have always(!) existed in the laws of every state. “It’s our own damned fault” that we have not – until now – been exercising these rights routinely. ?♂️
This right here is WHY LOCAL ELECTIONS are important.
These local clerks and city/county are the ones who determine YOUR VOTING MACHINES as well as the elections and so much of our daily lives ground floor policies that affect us very much.
Please get involved locally, they do. This is how they have taken our country over so fully in every aspect. We have to do it to save ourselves, our communities, our states, our country, and our Constitution. It is our civic duty to do our part to preserve our heritage for our future generations.
Liz Harris started the canvassing in AZ in early December, with a group of citizens, so she has a HUGE headstart on these dullards that thought they could get away with this crap.
Thousands and thousands of records, and it’s astonishing what her team has found! 200 identical phone numbers tied to 1 address, hundreds registered to a vacant lot, hundreds to addresses of public buildings like libraries, 10 registrations at a tiny house of 800 SF, with phantom names.
The DOJ isn’t gonna get rid of that, and there are thousands of volunteers that can give affidavits to corroborate this.
SCrew the DOJ.
I saw her interviewed right after she started. Everything she said is exactly correct. In Cleveland, I found 248 people registered to a 40 room Jay Hotel. We had precincts with a 200% turnout. People registered in Lake Erie, the Cuyahoga River, benches downtown, LTV Steel parking lot.
Moto Votor is how a lot of this voter fraud gets by officials, so I was told.
If DOJ attempts to interfere in any way the Arizona State Police must promptly arrest them.
Boy,that would be awesome!
The feds are pouring hundreds of billions on the states, even those that didn’t need it, under the “covid relief” bills.
That is bribery to ensure that the states submit to the feds.
Most will, after being squeezed by distress -including the latest, over a year of manufactured crisis.
The despotic corruption is taking over the republic completely now.
1. covid-1984 ruse.
2. “Systemic racism” ruse.
3. Print & borrow, bribe.
Straitjacket 1 + bludgeon 2 + carrot 3 leads to Marxist totalitarianism.
Mail in ballots spread Covid. Pass it on. 😉
I love it, the way our people have sold themselves into slavery for 30 pieces of silver. Our people are corrupted, and therefore cannot long live in liberty.
The problem is that most people have not traveled abroad and seen how most countries are, and they have not read history.
They don’t understand what happens next.
wont happen the govenor is a douche slurper.
IMO, if you are a patriot within about 50 miles of where this is occurring, you should be going there IN PERSON, by the tens of thousands, to put your body in the way, quite literally, to prevent allowing entry or interference from the illegal and corrupt federal government. At some point we will either acknowledge our necessary part in this battle or we will lose. Let them take the billy clubs and bullets to thousands of patriots standing by peacefully to try and allow justice to be served. See how that plays on every TV and youtube stream in former republic of America.
This is yet another great opportunity for whats left of the American people to stand their ground against injustice and get off the friggin internet sidelines.
Waiting for some other person or authority to take care of what must fall on our shoulders is WHY we are witnessing this all continue to circle the drain. Trump was gonna do it, then double secret plus good agents inside the DS, then it was Barr, then the special prosecutor, then it was this or that judge over this or that case, then Lin/Rudy/lawyers, then the SCOTUS, then Texas, then… then… then …
Alternatively, we can keep digitally guffawing and tsk-tsk-ing. That seems to be going really well so far.
So the revolution will be televised!
A peaceful human shield is a very good way to make it clear that we demand the truth.
Digital Guffaw. That just about sums it up. Where are our pissed-off French Generals? Guess the Beltway Bandit Double-Dip trough is just to enticing.
Kind of difficult to arrest them in a Federal District Court (of AZ) Office Building, which is where the action is going to occur. Their next step is an injunction with 9th District in AZ.
Yeah? How do they get there?
They live there as in the Local Office of DoJ…pretty simple, no?
Show up and physically block national socialism from occurring. let them beat their way through peaceful protesters on camera to prevent truth and see how that goes for them.
You seriously think that gutless Ducey would ever allow that to happen?
Tell the department of injustice to get lost. This is not in their jurisdiction. But what do you expect with merrick garland running it. he seems to be some what demented like joe.
Will the GOP cave and allow the sabotage? Let’s look at their track record since Nov.3:
Cave
Cave
Cave
Cave
Cave
Cave
Cave
Perhaps this time a miracle will occur. We certainly deserve one after 6 full months of back-stabbing and collusion with the Enemy. Who knows, if they actually pull this audit off, some of us may even reconsider never voting Republican ever again…
But there are always those who keep telling us to vote for the Pubs. That we need to fix the Party. And here we’ve been told that “liberalsim” is an incurable mental illness. That is true, but what does it say about our side who keep voting RINOs back into office over and over, and expecting a different result?
SOME of us ?????….most of us !!!!!!!!!
There is a local, well regarded civilian militia, called the Arizona Rangers, who are guarding the coliseum. They will not allow the feds inside.
THEY HAVE NO JURISDICTION.

Article briefly discusses DOJ honchos Pamela Kaplan and Emily Loeb (of Protect Democracy which ran the Transition Integrity Project)
Business Insider – https://archive.is/UG5eI#selection-2855.0-2855.10
Speaking of the DOJ/FBI/Weissman wing of our government, meddling in Arizona as an anti-Trump, anti-Patriot sledgehammer, here’s my prediction…
I ad-nauseam say our DOJ has been fully captured by a foreign government.
Do you recall the near-past, when the DOJ/FBI/Weissman raid on America’s Mayor, Rudolph Giuliani went down, they also raided and took Victoria Toensing’s phone? And who is Victoria married to? Joe Digenova.
Obviously, the NSA already has everything from Giuliani and Toensing and Digenova’s phones and the raid is just a phony ceremony, so they can say that’s where the evidence was legally gathered and not expose the NSA in court (standard procedure).
So here’s the twist — everyone thinks they’re targeting Giuliani, to create a crime and leverage him to spill on President Trump, in some unrelated matter, to stain him and keep him from running in 24.
No…I say they’re really going after Joe Digenova. You watch, they’re going to charge him and his wife with a FARA violation (Foreign Agent Registration Act), that is rarely ever charged. That might lead to charges of illegal foreign money and unpaid taxes? All the stuff the DOJ knows Hunter did.
The DOJ understands Rudy, at his age, will not be turning State’s Evidence & flipping on Trump. He’s a Manafort, not a Cohen.
Why Digenova? Because as a young federal prosecutor, appointed by President Reagan, he was instrumental in putting U.S. Naval Intelligence, Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard in prison for life.
Well, that was long ago and this is a different DOJ. This is now an Epstein-owned DOJ/FBI and they want revenge on Joe and have been watching him closely for years, in his private practice.
Pollard’s life imprisonment was revoked. Upon full release of his sentence, he was flown by a U.S./Israeli private jet to Israel, where he was greeted by Prime Minister Netanyahu, at the airport and given a heroes welcome.
Here’s relevant background from a CBS news article. Notice the familiar Alan Dershowitz, fighting so valiantly for the Israeli spy? Just as Alan was there in court and manipulating sweetheart deals with the DOJ, for “our greatest allies” blackmailing super-horse, Epstein.
So when you see Dershowitz, ready to help, with Mike Lindell lawsuits, etc., know who you’re in bed with — a guy fully informed, if not instrumental, in Epstein’s decades long pedo-blackmailing of our top government officials…and he was all well & fine with that criminal child pimping?
Sorry Joe, the Red Shield never forgets!
——
Editor’s Note: Sentenced to 30 years in prison in one the most controversial espionage cases in American history, Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard was released from parole, according to his attorneys, and all restrictions have been lifted as of Friday. The following report was published November 20, 2015.
Jonathan Pollard walked out of a federal prison in Butner, North Carolina today, 30 years after his arrest for spying for Israel. For more than a year, he had used his position as a U.S. Naval intelligence analyst to smuggle thousands of top-secret documents to his Israeli spymasters, who paid him handsomely for his trouble. In 1987, Pollard was sentenced to life in prison; his then-wife Anne was sentenced to five years as an accessory after the fact.
IIN A CLASSIC 60 MINUTES INTERVIEW FROM 1988 (IN THE VIDEO PLAYER ABOVE), MIKE WALLACE INTERVIEWED THE POLLARDS, THEN BEHIND BARS, ALONG WITH DEFENSE LAWYER ALAN DERSHOWITZ AND PROSECUTOR JOSEPH DIGENOVA.
It was the first time Jonathan Pollard, imprisoned at the federal penitentiary in Marion, Illinois, had spoken to an American reporter since his arrest. He told Wallace he knew he broke the law, but his motives were pure, rooted in his Jewish faith and allegiance to Israel.
“I can give you a number of soft reasons why I was motivated to do what I did,” he said. “Soft reasons, having to do with a family that was destroyed in the Holocaust, having to do with the realization that this government in the ’40s had abandoned the Jewish people to its fate in Europe.” There was also a “hard reason,” he said: He believed Caspar Weinberger, then secretary of defense, was neglecting his obligation to Israel.
Pollard said Weinberger was withholding information Israel was entitled to receive under a secret U.S.-Israeli intelligence-sharing agreement. He told Wallace he didn’t deserve a life sentence. “My sentence did not reflect proportional justice,” he said. “It reflected political vengeance, plain and simple.”
Pollard’s lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, agreed. “He spied for a country which was an ally of the United States,” Dershowitz told Wallace. “He tried his darnedest to give Israel only information which he believed was necessary to Israel’s survival and would not jeopardize the interests of the United States.”
But Joseph diGenova, the former U.S. attorney who prosecuted Pollard, told Wallace that Pollard did far more damage than the public knew. “I believe that if we were able to reveal to the American people the kind of damage that was done, there would be no question about the sentence,” he said.
Wallace also interviewed Anne Pollard, who was being held at a federal medical facility in Rochester, Minnesota. She told him she was being denied proper medical care for her abdominal pain.
Once again, the government had an entirely different perspective. Jim Jones of the U.S. Bureau of Prisons told Wallace that Anne had been seen not only by the prison’s physicians, but also by some 20 medical doctors at the affiliated Mayo Clinic. Jones said Anne had refused the medical treatment offered because she wanted to use her illness to get out of prison.
Anne was paroled in 1990, and she and Pollard divorced soon after. In 1994, Jonathan Pollard married a Canadian woman, Elaine Zeitz, now known as Esther Pollard, who had been advocating his release. She wasn’t the only one: Over the years, Israeli officials, American Jewish organizations and some U.S. politicians had pushed for his parole.
Earlier this week, Reps. Jerrold Nadler and Eliot Engel wrote to Attorney General Loretta Lynch asking that she lift Pollard’s five-year travel ban and allow him to move to Israel with his family after his release.
“Mr. Pollard understands that, as a condition of being permitted to move to Israel, he may need to renounce his American citizenship,” they wrote. “Despite the serious consequences that may follow such a decision, including being permanently barred from returning to the United States, he is willing to undertake this extraordinary measure.”
On Friday, a White House official said President Obama has no plans to alter the terms of Pollard’s parole.
Shorter version of the above: THE JOOOOOOOOS!
Nope. I read it as “foreign people in U.S. intelligence are a HUGE problem. Dual passport holders from ANYWHERE should be kept far, far away from any sensitive US information.” Pollard just got caught spying for his homeland. Seems we’ve deported a few Chinese for the same thing.
Thank you for saving me the waste of time.
Rudy should have seen all of this coming and he chose to ignore it at his peril. He is a fool to the nth degree. He did nothng to save Trump, it was all about him, that drunken fool!
I’d be willing to bet Mr. Giuliani saw it coming.
The Digenovas should be charged with Aggravated 3rd Degree Tick-Tock.
Weeeehehe. Yeah, like sand in an hour glass, where do we go to get back those “Tick-Tock” years?
We could have turned off Hannity’s blabbering & gone and built The Wall ourselves.
We would have learned more, if he’d instead, just livestreamed his MMA workouts, for those four years.
Tick-Tock crew, built the bomb that never stops ticking. Hannity should be charged with giving half of America a slow motion lobotomy.
At least we learned John Durham has a mean beard.
Well, I reckon their next step might be to throw an Antifa frontal assault at the building, break some windows and thereby prove the “lack of security” DOJ is claiming to be concerned about.
Hope the audit folks have that contingency covered with a couple phalanxes of riot-gear-clad law-enforcement defenders
call me a fraidy cat all you want, don’t faze me
With all of the cameras, the security, the observers, SH*T will hit the fan if Anyone tries to mess with this process!
Don’t doubt it for a minute.
The only intimidation of voters I see is coming from the Delusional Joe Feds and the DIM attorney’s who set up the very scenario they are now complaining about.
This guy said this for a reason.
#WideMargins
#NoRecounts
They DON’T want recounts ANYWHERE.
I think the AZ State Senate knows what to do with this letter.
Show time may be upon us…
What show time ? DOJ says the show is over.
So, in order to justify breaking the law in moving around legislatures in setting up the illegal mail-in voting process to steal the election, the Biden DOJ (on the prodding of one of the most corrupt liars in American history who did everything in his power to impeach, remove and find some fabricated reason to charge President Trump) now wants to use the law for their own justification to stop the reveal of the steal? Now that’s rich.
Does Obama want to be King Barack the first? It would appear so. I’m just waiting for him to come out and say “If I had a son, I’d want him to act just like Andy Weissmann.” You know he has to be proud of Herr Weissmann, who has played every role possible to destroy President Trump with falsified information. I’m sure he played a major role in Clinesmith’s non-punitive prosecution. Did Herr Weissmann order Clinesmith to falsify the documents or simply plant the seed in order to advance Kevin’s position amongst the government cabal of corruption?
Meanwhile, Xi has added a new title to his name and is looking very smug and relaxed now that he knows his lapdogs Delusonal Joe and #WheresHunter are on his leash and his MASSIVE USA Election Steal is being defended by so many free attorneys, and all on the dime of the USA taxpayers, with interest to boot. Paid to China, of course.
xi must be reading Idi Amin’s autobiography.
Evil crooks, vindictive, and sadly they are part of a dictatorship. Continue to pray for our country, to change hearts and turn them from deception to truth.
Signatures notwithstanding, there certainly has to be concern by the Communists (and in DoJ, but I repeat myself) that the ballots received via the off-shore contracted bulk print job don’t contain appropriate watermark of the real deal.
yeah… they found something that is very problematic for election felon/frauds
The woke mob has this trending on Twitter now:
Why some officials have raised concerns over the ongoing Republican-commissioned audit of election results in Arizona
Once again we see evidence of Federal overreach as they try to protect their sanctity.

Disability Service Coordinator Blows Whistle on Vote Fraud in Group Homes
By Dan O’Donnell
16 Nov 2020
https://newstalk1130.iheart.com/featured/common-sense-central/content/2020-11-16-disability-service-coordinator-blows-whistle-on-vote-fraud-in-group-homes
And this was not the 1st time this has happened, we are certain of that too.
Dan testified at the Wisconsin Election Fraud Hearing last December and was made fun of by the DIM reps the rest of the day, when they weren’t walking out. He is the 1st to testify, and his testimony begins around 00:5:08, right after the opening statement.
The DIMs jeered about having a “radio dj” testify. Like all radio djs (working people) are pond scum, or lower, or something, not a legal Wisconsin constituent sharing his experience of numerous people coming to them about wha happened to their ballots in the 2020 elections.
I often wonder if Xi has invaded the senior care facilities too. We worry about the Chinese influence in our schools, what about their influence over our seniors? What better place to ballot harvest.
One held secret. The fraud they brought to the american people. Fake president was installed in the WH.
Gosh darn. A group of law-fare activists is concerned about preserving federal election records — the answer to our prayers!
Now let’s send these law-fare concern trolls over to Antrim County, Michigan, where the county clerk has admitted to altering Dominion machine data after the election. Get right on over there, guys. Bust A Move.
And after that our law-fare warriors can trot right on over to Georgia, where there’s a little matter of some missing ballots. No doubt will be all over this one, I tell you.
Just kidding. In actuality whoever is spying on the audit must be really, really anxious about the way it’s going.
Hurrah — help is on the way!
Again, one can only wonder why an entity would bother retaining any records. Really stupid of me to keep records for an audit when I can claim the records cannot be viewed due to a privacy issue, and the lack of chain of custody: you see we ‘moved’ and the records are, by fiat, compromised.
The DoJ wants people to forget that the reason WHY election materials MUST be retained is for the event of an AUDIT just like this one.
Why else would they be retained in the first place?
Thank you, DOJ! With your latest move you have further confirmed my belief that the Democrats are hiding something.
One of the best things Mitch McConnell did was to deny the radical leftist Merrick Garland a spot on the Supreme Court
I disagree on that one. On the courts he makes a ruling as cases appear. As head of DoJ he takes actions and rewrites law, now on a daily basis aided by the courts.
Muck Ferrick Garland. ?
The audit comes under state legislative jurisdiction. Having the feds to inject themselves in this process is clearly unconstitutional. Only problem is the feds do not recognize the constitution and any objections may have to be settled in the captured SCOTUS. Will they find standing? Probably not. Will they take years to hand down a ruling? Probably so. Should the state step aside and let this process play out. Heck no.
Your argument is true if the DoJ and Federal Courts were approaching this from the technical side, to question the State Legislature’s authority, which they are NOT doing.
Take a step back to realize the part of DoJ activated is NOT challenging the technical aspects of the effort. They are taking the one path that brings the Federal Courts into play in this case…civil rights.
Given AZ resides in the 9th District, their arguments that an issue “may” exist will always work to at at least precipitate a Federal Court Cases to decide the “civil rights” issue.
Why was the Treehouse “inaccessible” this morning?
Probably just website maintenance. It happens.
Web version of an oil and filter change.
At that time? Not in the middle of the night?
CTH does not have a “large” , dedicated, 24/7 staff.
Let’s see what is said.
I guess we get to find out if the GOP has seen the light yet or if they are still trying to light the candle from the bottom, with a wet match.
I am betting they crawl into the corner and start sucking their thumbs.
I predict they will leave Kelli Ward swinging in the wind.
It is what the Republican Freedom Pimps do.
It is time to confront the DOJ monster Arizona!
The one thing that will NOT be found at the Justice Department is justice.
Arizona needs to throw that letter in the circular file. The state needs to arrest the feds and tell them to get out.
They can’t. The DoJ and Federal Courts are not challenging their “authority” to conduct the audit. Read the letters, read the complaint…They are playing the race and civil rights card, which is an issue that cannot be ignored.
This is corruption by the DOJ and the democrats on a scale i have not seen in my over 50 years, and the people leading it are all democrats. The excuses used not to look more closely at the outrageous number of irregularities in the 2020 election were laughable, and now the leftists at the DOJ are concerned some of their handiwork in handing the election to Biden might be uncovered, so they are trying to stick their noses in and put in the fix. Seems nothing but another civil war will put these arrogant leftists down.
the cowed and cowardly “supreme” court is lost. The only recourse here is to release the audit findings immediately and PUBLICLY… no more of the “we have evidence” that NEVER surfaces nonsense. Get it out there NOW!!!
DoJ will go straight to the 9th Circuit in AZ (with 7 Obama Judges of 12) to get an injunction to stop.
And it will be appealed to SCOTUS.
In every state, and in every election, we have – and have always had – the legal right to mount an “election contest,” and to require an independent audit of election materials. These materials are required to be securely retained for at least two years, specifically to support this privilege. The laws, mostly copied from one another, are almost identical in every state. (In Arizona, it is “ARS Title 16,” and contests are discussed in “Article 13.”)
“It is, indeed, very strange” that the DOJ professes to suddenly be interested in the “security” of ballots, when the original fraud of course stemmed from a total lack of security or accountability. They also seem to be upset that actual voters might be contacted. Or, perhaps they are actually concerned that the canvassers might be staring at an empty lot? ?
“The Guilty Run When Not Being Chased.™”
Since the SC will not rule on anything, I think it is pretty clear cut that it is a state issue. Why are the Fed. getting involved?
They can’t dodge this one.
They are wrapping their case in civil rights and not challenging the authority to conduct the audit..read complaint, read the letters, read SD’s article. The DoJ is NOT challenging authority to audit.
They are playing the race and rights card, which cannot be ignored.
This is a dangerous threat. AZ is in the the US 9th Federal District. There will be at least major delays for court cases and its 50-50 about the actual decisions made.
Why can’t the race and rights card be ignored when it’s irrelevant?
Did anyone notice the CTH site was down this morning??
I thought maybe CTH had been shut down by …..THEM.
I noticed Twitter was down at the same time.
Frontpage Magazine last night.
Another circular argument from the DOJ as though they have never done this before. The DOJ is as bad as the FBI.
Radical change is coming to them and for them sooner than they think.
?
Hahahaha ha … the DOJ is concerned about destruction of subpoenaed materials … ahhhahahahahaha … you mean like HER electronic devices? Hahahahaha ha ha
The Deep State is BACK in charge … Right?
Matt DePerno, the sole Attorney given legal permission to Audit the Dominion machines in Anterim County says it’s a shame that private citizens are doing all the legwork to proove this crime. It should be the FBI who know and knew about this.
Actually, I don’t want the FBI within 87 Light Years of what’s going on with these efforts.
Good point, Mr. Piddles.
No. Never the FBLie. That is the fox guarding the henhouse. They’d further muck and muddle and end up finding a million more Bbbbbribe-em ballots.
Much commentary on twitter re the machines, esp coming out of NJ, MI, and AZ. IMO, all the focus on the machines and how they can be cheated is wasted energy because it’s all so complicated and uncertain that it’s easily undermined with derp (as happened in MI). AND, the people most adept at untangling it all are from the intel community, hence inherently not trustable.
The focus should be on the things that are easily verifiable:
1/ Counting the votes from the ballots themselves. If possible, any destroyed ballots should be weighed to estimate the number destroyed.
2/ Absentee and mail-in ballot signature verification along counting of envelopes and not-in-person ballots.
All the other statistical stuff (illegal voters, etc) only matters if the above counts show a very close election.
The machine evaluations matter only in terms of getting the machines kicked out. Any politician not in favor of eliminating all machines should be voted out. (That was an intentional joke.)
If they can’t stuff the ballot box with counterfeit ballots or rig the election machines, the Dems can’t win, and they know it.
Voting integrity is the single-most-important issue of the next 2 years.
And THAT is why they want illegal aliens pouring into the country; why they want convicted felons to vote; why they refuse to clean up voter roles so the dead don’t vote; why they want 16 year old children to vote. Because Americans don’t vote for them any more. It’s just that stark.
“This description of the proposed work of the audit raises concerns regarding potential intimidation of voters.”
Really!!!!!
More like DOJ efforts are to intimidate real vote’s vote from being counted correctly.
D’ya all think Merrick Garland is JUST GETTING STARTED in his bitter retribution campaign for being DENIED a seat on the SCOTUS?
Man, did we dodge a bullet with THAT nominee
We sure did. The guy is an utter hack and should not even be where he is let alone SCOTUS. Thank the Lord he was tanked and not pushed through. Obama tried to pull one over thank goodness at least on this the GOP didn’t go for it.
I disagree…he is going to cause real major damage in real time that cannot be undone.
The damage he will cause will be backed by the courts anyway … so tell me again how his not being on the court saves anything??
So if the courts don’t save us, we are doomed? I’m sorry, I think We the people need to recognize there is NO functioning level of federal government now.
We need to hold the line with the theft if this election. If we don’t, we do not have a country.
This is the MOST IMPORTANT issue in America today. If there is no election integrity and ELECTION FRAUD is allowed to exist, then demirats will get elected like the IMPOSTERS – Joe and the HOE – and communist policies will be implemented. It’s obvious that election fraud in the Ukraine and other countries is the model for the demirat party. These illegal acts of election fraud must be prosecuted and eliminated before 2022. The demirats would probably never win another election.
I think we should stop boasting and pontificating to the world. I know of no nation that is more corrupt than our own. Our corruption is massive and much more widespread than I ever imagined before Trump. Our intel services, our doj, our law enforcement FBI, our judiciary, our congress, our military, our schools, our health system, our media, pretty much every institution of our nation. I cannot imagine any solution short of total purge that will work. I cannot imagine how that can be accomplished without the most drastic measures. I feel that I am living in an alien land. Every day I see the filthiest corruption being perpetrated by leadership and followers alike.
Where was that filthy corrupt justice dept the last 5 years?
Big Media Spin ramping up…
“Ballots, laptops reportedly left unattended during Arizona vote audit, official says”
https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/552075-ballots-laptops-reportedly-left-unattended-during-arizona-vote-audit
“Mr. Bennett, as a former Secretary of State, you know that our elections are governed by a complex framework of laws and procedures designed to ensure accuracy, security, and transparency,” Hobbs wrote. “You also must therefore know that the procedures governing this audit ensure none of those things.”
Look at all the evidence of malpractice occurring, folks! That’s gotta be, like, five or six “media reports” by now… a few more and they’re gonna have to go in there and shut down that operation! For Democracy ‘n Stuff, of course…
Well………….they only used 9 cameras, what were they thinking?/s
I think were I in the AZ Senate, my response would be that the DOJ lacks standing to interfere in an internal audit of State elections returns based on biased media reporting. The position of the AZ Senate should be that the US Department of Justice is actively collaborating with opposition groups, and is using the fake news media as a platform for peddling false information. The DOJ is well-known for both planting fake news stories as a pretext for investigations, planting stories in the fake news to damage the reputations of innocent people, and collaborating with Left Wing groups to tip the scales of Justice in their favor.
Throw it right back at them. See you in court. The audit will not stop, and the AZ State Senate does not recognize the authority of the Federal Government to interfere in an internal audit of state election returns.
And just for good measure, poke them in the eye with, “Fortunately, the AZ State Senate does not base its actions on internet rumors and fake news.”
“The position of the AZ Senate should be that the US Department of Justice is actively collaborating with opposition groups, and is using the fake news media as a platform for peddling false information.”
This seems to accurately sum up the situation. Another psyop going down.
… and look who else is getting in on the act… why, it’s our old favorite Political Pollster, Frank Putz!
“Pollster Frank Luntz: Trump’s ‘Big Lie’ is working, may cost GOP votes”
https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/552076-gop-pollster-frank-luntz-trumps-big-lie-is-working-may-cost-gop-house
Luntz noted in an interview on the New York Times podcast “Sway” released Thursday that “more than two-thirds of Republicans believe that the election was stolen,” warning that a widespread and unproven belief that there was rampant fraud last November could turn Republicans off from voting in the midterm elections.
“Shut it all down! It’s a lie, I tell you! IT’S ALL A DAMN LIE!!!”
Mmkay, Putz.
Failing New York Times podcast “released Thursday”, in case you missed it.
He is right about the republican party – everything they say is a lie and is proven to be a lie by their own actions. He is also correct that a whole bunch of us are not going to vote for the republican-liars.
Frank Luntz … who Kevin McCarthy is renting a room from. …
Yep…

This election is over. But we still need the truth. Also, why are the Democrats fighting every damn audit. What are they hiding?
Transparency no matter outcome matters.

This is from a table published by Peter Navarro.
The NV figures seem to be round-ups or round-downs.
Regarding ballots received before postmark date, that indicates a fraudulent postmark. That’s a felony.
BTW – what is the chain of custody for such a ballot? Probably didn’t come via USPS.
thank you for facts and the work it took to give them to us needs to go viral
Are DOJ/FBI mobsters or what? I am a former prosecutor, and I will be damned if I have ever run into such an organized RICO-type of conspiracy to deprive the non-leftist voters of this nation of any real form of due process. This is sickening beyond belief. Let’em keep it up. Just keep it up.
How these scum can go home, take off a badge, and look at themselves in the mirror is beyond comprehension.
Well-said. They don’t even mind looking like fools for basing their letter on “reports” — now, that’s about as vague as you can get when explaining why they’re wanting to investigate. Might as well say “A little fairy told us that…” or “We had a dream that you were…”
If the left had to rely on truth and facts they would be extinct. Reports and the repeated narrative talking points is all they need in their minds. “We don’t need no stink’n evidence” is the mantra as it was with impeachment for DJT.
If you can accept the premise that the purpose of left-wing, communist propaganda is not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate, and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better, everything is suddenly starting to make sense.
When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse, when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity.
To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control.
Agreed. My opinion:
The RICO act should be applied to the DOJ. Arizona should investigate the DOJ and arrest and hold any DOJ employee caught in the state.
With a smile on their faces! It’s all outcome driven in this country, and the ends justify the means. Worse yet, if you work for the government in D.C. and refuse to behave in a certain way, i.e. refuse to bend the rules or otherwise engage in corrupt activities or deviant behavior in order to advance your career, your coworkers and superiors would look down upon you like it was you who was sick, crazy and stupid… That’s the spirit!
The problem is the acceptance of criminality and all kinds of deviant behavior as a new norm or a standard for those who work for the government institutions.
