Pennsylvania Senate Chairman Says Election Audit a “very real possibility” as State Proposes Election Reform Legislation

Despite many people thinking an audit in Pennsylvania would be too difficult to initiate the State Senate Chairman of the Government Committee,  Dave Argall, has said an audit is “a very real possibility” after hearing from residents and constituents.

PENNSYLVANIA –  The Pennsylvania state Senate committee chair in charge of overseeing elections said a forensic audit was a “very real possibility” Thursday after meeting with activists Wednesday.

Senate State Government Committee Chairman Dave Argall, R-Schuylkill, told the Capital-Star that he was considering subpoenas for ballot information, but had not considered which jurisdictions would be subpoenaed yet.  “There are a lot of things under consideration right now, and I told them to check back in a week or two and we hope to have some more detail,” Argall told the Capital-Star of the meeting.

This will not please U.S. Attorney Merrick Garland who has announced his intention to double the number of lawyers in the DOJ Civil Rights Division (hired from Lawfare ranks) to fight any effort to reveal election fraud.

Arizona Audit Liaison Ken Bennett Explains Current Status of Maricopa County Audit and Next Steps

Former Arizona Secretary of State and current senate liaison for the Maricopa County audit, Ken Bennett, gives an interesting interview to John Fredricks Outside The Beltway podcast to share the current status of the Maricopa County audit.

Mr. Bennett notes the hand audit of the original ballots is nearing completion as they finish out the last several batches of duplicated ballots. However, the audit of the electronic records is more challenging because the Maricopa Board of Supervisors are refusing to give information related to the Routers used (verification of non-internet connection) and administrative passwords for the tabulation machines.

Additionally, the auditors need to review 1.9 million envelopes that need to have signatures in order to qualify as valid mail-in ballots/votes.  Without signatures the envelopes should never have been opened and the ballots disqualified.  The audit team needs to check the envelopes for signatures.  There will also be a few weeks where physical canvassing of the region will take place for identified “voting anomalies” (ex. 52 ballots from a single family home).   The entire process is likely to flow into August before the final report is assembled.  WATCH:

Glenn Greenwald Asks Reasonable Questions About the FBI’s Involvement in January 6th Capitol Hill Event

While journalist Darren Beattie insults CTH for pointing out the flaws in his advocacy (calling CTH “autistic and stupid“, duly noted), journalist Glenn Greenwald focuses his intellectual armament against the correct enemy highlighting the pattern of the FBI infiltrating and manipulating domestic groups.  Greenwald has a solid outline on Substack worth reading (excerpt):

Greenwald – […] “If the FBI had advanced knowledge of what was being plotted yet did nothing to stop the attack, it raises numerous possibilities about why that is. It could be that they just had yet another “intelligence failure” of the kind that they claimed caused them to miss the 9/11 attack and therefore need massive new surveillance authorities, budget increases, and new Patriot-Act-type laws to fix it. It could be that they allowed the riot to happen because they did not take it seriously enough or because some of them supported the cause behind it, or because they realized that there would be benefits to the security state if it happened. Or it could be that they were using those operatives under their control to plot with, direct, and drive the attack — as they have done so many times in the past — and allowed it to happen out of either negligence or intent.” (continue reading)

Greenwald’s points, and his historic references, are well taken; actually, Greenwald’s outline reminded CTH of an event in 2015 that in hindsight has a very similar pattern and reference point(s).

After Meeting With Russian President Vladimir Putin Joe Biden Freezes Military Assistance to Ukraine

President Donald Trump was impeached under the false pretense of withholding military assistance from Ukraine (he never did).  Intelligence Community operative Lt. Col Alexander Vindman testified to congress that President Trump’s decision to pause military assistance to Ukraine was evidence of some suspicious relationship between President Trump and Russian President Putin….  The media proclaimed Trump was working to assist Russia because President Putin likely had pee tapes, or something.

Fast forward a little more than a year, Joe Biden meets with Putin, gets eviscerated and embarrassed by the diplomatic smack-down from the Russian President, and suddenly Joe Biden is freezing formerly approved military assistance for Ukraine….  IMPEACH !

WASHINGTON DC – The Biden White House has temporarily halted a military aid package to Ukraine that would include lethal weapons, a plan originally made in response to aggressive Russian troop movements along Ukraine’s border this spring.

The aid package would be worth up to $100 million, according to four people familiar with internal deliberations.

The National Security Council directed officials to put the package together, as Washington grew increasingly concerned over a massive Russian military buildup near the border with Ukraine and in the Crimean Peninsula, according to three of the people, who like the others asked not to be named in order to speak candidly about internal discussions. Officials at the State Department and Pentagon worked to assemble the proposal. (read more)

Republicans and Conservative Pundits Walking into a Trap Demanding Congressional Investigation of FBI Involvement on Jan 6th DC Event

Last night CTH highlighted the flaw in the Tucker Carlson (Fox News) and Darren Beattie (Revolver News) advocacy for a Senate investigation into the FBI involvement with the January 6th DC protest/insurrection {Go Deep}.  Bottom Line: legislative oversight has consistently been participating in the corruption carried out by intelligence agencies and FBI.

Tonight I want to warn everyone of the trap that exists if this advocacy for a legislative approach continues.  Republicans are right now walking into a trap.  Read this next line carefully:  The January 6th Commission is to MAGA voters what the Mueller investigation was to President Trump.

The Senate vote to support Nancy Pelosi’s January 6th Commission only failed by five votes. The final cloture vote was 54-35.  Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Susan Collins of Maine, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Ben Sasse of Nebraska, Mitt Romney of Utah and Rob Portman of Ohio all supported the commission. Pat Toomey (PA) would have supported, but he was absent for the vote.  Senators Blackburn (R-TN), Blunt (R-MO), Braun (R-IN), Burr (R-NC), Inhofe (R-OK), Murray (D-WA), Risch (R-ID), Rounds (R-SD), Shelby (R-AL), Sinema (D-AZ) and Toomey (R-PA) did not vote.

If republicans keep demanding a senate investigation into the FBI involvement on January 6th events, it will only take a few moves before Schumer and Pelosi twist that demand to say “then why didn’t you support the January 6th commission?”… and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer would love nothing more than to bring that vote to approve the commission back to the floor.  I would even suggest that due to new demands by republicans in media, Mitch McConnell would support it.

Let me be clear, that January 6th Commission will be entirely run by democrats and their Lawfare operatives within staff.  The purpose of that commission would carry the same intents as the Mueller investigation in 2017 through 2019: to frame a narrative against their political opposition.    The difference this time would be that President Trump would not be the intended sole target; the Pelosi January 6th commission would be targeting Trump voters.

Investigations are only done by DC to serve their own interests.  Sometimes those interests are in throwing a bag over DC corruption: Fast n Furious, Benghazi Committee, IRS scandal and the VA scandal for recent reference points.  However, sometimes those DC interests are best protected by targeting opposition to DC itself, just like the Weissmann/Mueller special counsel.

Supreme Court Upholds Religious Freedom in Foster Parent Case – Fulton v Philadelphia

Philadelphia city leadership had previously changed policies forbidding foster-care referrals to faith-based worship groups.  The far-left Philadelphia government officials had expressed their ‘woke’ advocacy by blocking Catholic Social Services (CSS), an organization associated with the Archdiocese of Philadelphia and foster parents from providing services due to their outlook on traditional marriage.

Two foster parents and CSS sued the city for discrimination alleging the policy violated their first amendment right to their religious belief.  Two lower courts ruled against Catholic Social Services, reflecting just how politicized the local and state judiciary has become.  However, the U.S. Supreme Court sided with CSS and the parents in a 9-0 ruling [full pdf here], affirming that Philadelphia was factually discriminating against the group based on their religious beliefs.

However, as noted by SCOTUS Blog – […] “the decision fell short of the broad endorsement of religious freedom that the challengers had sought. While the justices unanimously agreed with CSS and the foster parents that the city’s action was unconstitutional, a six-justice majority left intact the Supreme Court’s 1990 decision in Employment Division v. Smith, which held that government actions do not violate the Constitution’s free exercise clause as long as they are neutral and apply to everyone.”

Ballot Problems Persist in Atlanta, Georgia – Missing Ballots, Missing Logs, Duplicated Ballot Scans and Worse

To say there are sketchy issues in Fulton County, Georgia, elections would be the understatement of the year.  So many issues have been raised with the Atlanta area 2020 election processes it would be impossible to encapsulate them in one article.  However, one consistent pattern continues…. It appears specific lots of ballots -all favoring Joe Biden- were counted multiple times.

The multiple counting issue is just one aspect, one point of data, that current lawsuits within the region are attempting to resolve.  The scanning of the same batches of ballots multiple times would explain the “missing batches” issue.  The batches are “missing” because they were simply not batches at all, they were duplicate scans of ballots that had already been counted.

Additionally, fraudulent ballots created on non secure paper, which appear to have been made on copy machines, is another issue (some of that touched here).   That issue has been directly confirmed to CTH by an election worker who was part of the original count and who noted there were ballots on paper that was not authorized as print stock for the original ballots.

The audit of 147,000 sketchy absentee ballots might start to unravel these and may other issues that have become problematic for the Atlanta area election officials to hide.  Fulton County officials have already admitted to violations in state election law surrounding chain-of-custody documents; and into this mix of information comes a report from John Solomon and Daniel Payne about internal election communication and notes that seem to confirm the Fulton County officials were attempting to deal with election manipulation. {SEE HERE}

(Just the News) – […] scores of batches of absentee ballots that appeared missing from the documents and more than two dozen batches of absentee ballots that appear to have been double or triple-counted in Fulton County. (read more)

There are seven targeted voter regions where similar ballot issues and statistical impossibilities have been identified nationwide: Fulton County, Georgia; Wayne County, Michigan; Maricopa County, Arizona; Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Clark County, Nevada; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Madison, Wisconsin.

The Tucker Carlson Solution to Deal With a Corrupt Intelligence Apparatus and FBI Will Not Work, Here’s Why

Last night and tonight, Fox News host Tucker Carlson led off the show with discussion of the “January 6th Insurrection” narrative.

On Tuesday night Carlson and Darren Beattie suggested some form of senate Church Committee 2.0 should be initiated in order to investigate the U.S. intelligence community, and specifically the FBI for their role in coordinating or facilitating the January 6th events.  On Wednesday night Carlson again recommended the U.S. congress should start investigating.

Putting aside the background motives of Tucker Carlson; and accepting he is making these recommendations in good faith; there is a fatal flaw in his suggestion – and the support from anyone else who would suggest the same or similar approach.  The fatal flaw is an obvious one that unfortunately too many people just will not, and cannot, accept….

The Legislative Branch of the federal government is part of the Intelligence Community corruption.  The oversight “gang of eight” (pictured above), are enablers and participants in the corrupt endeavors that Carlson wants them to investigate.

The House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) led by Chairman Adam Schiff, and the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) led by Chairman Mark Warner, are part of the institutional corruption.  This is the problem, the core issue in the background, that too few people are recognizing as they begin to see the corruption within the intelligence community.  The legislative branch and the executive branch are working together; there is NO functioning oversight.  {CLIFF NOTES}
