Everything about a grand jury is supposed to be kept secret to protect the innocent (5th Amendment issue).  However, if the motives of the prosecutor are political, they want to exploit Lawfare by leaking information to media.  This is the process Nancy Pelosi called “the wrap-up smear“, only this time it is being coordinated with Lawfare.

Create a fraudulent accusation; then leak (or merchandise) the accusation to media; then “merchandise” the media report of the leak as evidence to support the fraudulent accusation.  This is precisely what Manhattan DA Cyrus Vance is doing with a leaked story about his grand jury against President Trump.  You can tell this is the political motive because grand jury secrecy is dismissed in favor of the media leak.

If the motive wasn’t political, the DA wouldn’t need the leak.

NEW YORK — Manhattan’s district attorney has convened the grand jury that is expected to decide whether to indict former president Donald Trump, other executives at his company or the business itself should prosecutors present the panel with criminal charges, according to two people familiar with the development.

The panel was convened recently and will sit three days a week for six months. It is likely to hear several matters — not just the Trump case ­— during the duration of its term, which is longer than a traditional New York state grand-jury assignment, these people said. Like others, they spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation. Generally, special grand juries such as this one are convened to participate in long-term matters rather than to hear evidence of crimes charged routinely.

The ballot audit for Maricopa County, Arizona, started back up yesterday.  In this interview Senate liaison Ken Bennett provides an update and discusses the ridiculous Board of Supervisors claim of voting machine compromise.

Keep in mind the Maricopa Board of Supervisors would not allow the auditors to use the tabulation center for the audit.  That decision forced the State Senate to seek another venue for the audit.  Now the Board of Supervisors is using the need to move the machines as a reason to question chain-of-custody for the machines they forced to be moved.   Yeah, you cannot make this stuff up.

The case against Steve Bannon was always a political case of Lawfare by the DOJ.  Today a federal judge had to concede the pardon issued by President Trump encompasses the accusations made by a politically motivated DOJ.  The case was dismissed.

(Via Fox News) – A federal judge granted Stephen Bannon’s motion to dismiss the case against him on Tuesday following then-President Donald Trump’s pardon. 

“For the reasons stated above, Bannon’s motion is GRANTED and the Indictment is DISMISSED as to him, pursuant to paragraph one of the Pardon,” Judge Analisa Torres declared in a filing.

[…] Bannon and three other defendants were indicted about a year ago as federal prosecutors accused them of defrauding hundreds of thousands of donors in a $25 million “We Build the Wall” crowdfunding campaign. The Department of Justice said they were using the false pretense that all the money would be spent on the construction of the border wall between Mexico and the U.S.

The four defendants were charged with conspiracy to commit wire fraud and conspiracy to engage in money laundering. They all pleaded “not guilty” to the charges.

But on Jan. 19, just before leaving office, President Trump granted Bannon a “full and unconditional pardon.” (read more)

Every economic policy of the JoeBama administration benefits other nations at the cost of the U.S. middle class.  If you look at the Biden policy from a position of America’s interests they get everything wrong.  However, if you look at Biden economic policy from a goal to weaken the U.S. and benefit other nations, they get everything right.

This is the exact same big picture dynamic that was present during the Obama era.  The Chicago crew of policy advisors simply hate America and everything she/we stand for.  That element of Obama’s network hates ‘colonialism’, despises the industrial revolution, and abhors free market capitalism.

When Obama said “share the wealth” he wasn’t speaking exclusively toward domestic socioeconomic policy; he was also pointing out that America needed to share wealth with other nations.  This is the ideological alignment between Barack Obama and Osama Bin Laden.  Above all other issues Osama Bin Laden despised the wealth the U.S. carried as a result of the dollar being the international trade currency.  Thus the 9/11 attack was directed at the World Trade Center first, then DC second.

If you accept Biden is an avatar for Obama’s third term, then everything in the economic policy makes sense.   Including this:

“U.S. President Joe Biden will rely on ally countries to supply the bulk of the metals needed to build electric vehicles and focus on processing them domestically into battery parts, part of a strategy designed to placate environmentalists, two administration officials with direct knowledge told Reuters.” (link)

Beyond the hypocrisy of ‘global’ climate change being irrelevant to where the mining takes place (duh), what the administration is doing is letting our mining operations close while importing the same product. This is a continuation of what policies created the “rust belt”.  Then there’s the pesky problem of the cars actually being built in Mexico, not the U.S…. but we need to ignore that part.

I have bitten my tongue on this weasel, preferring to give him time and space to show a personal shift and change in value for leadership.  However, I have no more tongue to bite.  The comments by Kevin McCarthy condemning Marjorie Taylor Greene are obtuse in the extreme.

MTG was making a point about COVID vaccinations creating two classes of people, vaxxed -vs- non vaxxed.  She compared the current pressure by government to the pre-Nazi era where German Jews were made out to be second class citizens.  It was, perhaps, a poor metaphor; however, it was not any form of an attack against Jewish people or any comparison to the Holocaust.

That said,the media wanted to turn this into an attack against Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene because they hate her….  and so they twist her words… And just like the typical GOPe quislings that have come before him, House Leader Kevin McCarthy shows up just in time to throw fuel on their false narrative:

Kevin McCarthy – “Marjorie is wrong, and her intentional decision to compare the horrors of the Holocaust with wearing masks is appalling. The Holocaust is the greatest atrocity committed in history. The fact that this needs to be stated today is deeply troubling.

“At a time when the Jewish people face increased violence and threats, anti-Semitism is on the rise in the Democrat Party and is completely ignored by Speaker Nancy Pelosi.  “Americans must stand together to defeat anti-Semitism and any attempt to diminish the history of the Holocaust.  “Let me be clear: the House Republican Conference condemns this language.” (link)

McCarthy has got to go.

Background – The people on the ground in Windham, New Hampshire, are doing an excellent job holding the election officials and auditors accountable to the people during this forensic ballot audit. The audit started because the tabulating machines (Dominion hardware and software) did not accurately count the votes from the physical ballots.

During the first small audit (recount) it was discovered that Republican votes were undercounted and Democrat candidates were overcounted. This anomaly was discovered during a hand recount of the ballots as compared to the electronic tabulation results.

After the first set of electronic tabulation results were discovered to be inaccurate the state authorized a full forensic audit. The full audit is ongoing; yesterday it was reported the second hand recount matched the first, which means the machine tabulation of those ballots was wrong.

The auditors wondered if folded ballots generated the problem. The test of folded -vs- unfolded ballots (counted by same machine) showed a high number of errors.  The rate of error was a whopping 60%.  That could mean the tabulation machines across all of New Hampshire may have this problem.

Washington Examiner – As many as 60% of ballots with machine-made or handmade folds were improperly counted by the town’s four scanning machines, Harri Hursti, one of three auditors selected for the process, told the New Hampshire Union Leader on Monday.  “The error rate was way higher than we expected,” Hursti said.

Project Veritas has revealed some explosive information provided by two Facebook whistleblowers.   According to documents and testimony by the insiders, Facebook initiated a program to control the speech of users who were expressing “vaccine hesitancy”, or concerns about the COVID vaccine.  Anyone who was concerned about the vaccine was given a “vaccine hesitancy ” score.  Unbeknownst to the user, that score was then used to ban, remove or shadow-ban the content.

In essence any speech, sharing of information or comment discussion that is not in alignment with the pro-vaccine narrative is considered adverse to the interests of the Facebook platform.  Those users are then targeted to suppress their voice.

(Project Veritas) – […] The company has set up a tier system to rank comments on various scales, based on how much the statement questions or cautions against the Covid-19 vaccination.

Tier 2, for instance, represents “Indirect Discouragement” of getting vaccinated and according to PV’s sources, user comments such as these would be heavily “suppressed.”

It doesn’t matter if the comments are true, factual or represent reality. The comment is demoted, buried and hidden from view of the public if it clashes with this system.

The media and Maricopa County officials have been claiming that voter result databases were not deleted; and they reference the ability of the auditors to recover the deleted information as proof the voter data was never deleted.  However, according to technical forensic expert Ben Cotton, the ‘D’ drive of the EMS Primary Server was in fact deleted.  It was only because of his extensive experience in the data forensics field that he was able to recover the deleted files; which is exactly what he said at the Arizona State Senate hearing on May 19th.

QUESTION – ““Did you determine that the D drive was deleted?”

The legislature of Florida and Governor Ron DeSantis waste no time in confronting the fast pace of leftist ideology with legislative and executive order moves to protect citizens within the Sunshine state.  The speed of their united effort is actually quite remarkable.  Today Governor Ron DeSantis signed SB 7072, a Florida law permitting citizens to sue Big Tech for deplatforming, targeting or censorship.

Under SB 7072:

• All Floridians treated unfairly by Big Tech platforms will have the right to sue companies that violate this law — and win monetary damages. This reform safeguards the rights of every Floridian by requiring social media companies to be transparent about their content moderation practices and give users proper notice of changes to those policies, which prevents Big Tech bureaucrats from “moving the goalposts” to silence viewpoints they don’t like.
• The Attorney General of Florida can bring action against technology companies that violate this law, under Florida’s Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act. If social media platforms are found to have violated antitrust law, they will be restricted from contracting with any public entity. That “antitrust violator” blacklist imposes real consequences for Big Tech oligopolies’ bottom line.
• Big Tech is prohibited from de-platforming Floridian political candidates. The Florida Election Commission will impose fines of $250,000 per day on any social media company that de-platforms any candidate for statewide office, and $25,000 per day for de-platforming candidates for non-statewide offices. Any Floridian can block any candidate they don’t want to hear from, and that is a right that belongs to each citizen — it’s not for Big Tech companies to decide.  (read full text here)

“This session, we took action to ensure that ‘We the People’ — real Floridians across the Sunshine State — are guaranteed protection against the Silicon Valley elites,” said Governor Ron DeSantis. “Many in our state have experienced censorship and other tyrannical behavior firsthand in Cuba and Venezuela. If Big Tech censors enforce rules inconsistently, to discriminate in favor of the dominant Silicon Valley ideology, they will now be held accountable.” (LINK)
