Senator Letter Draft: No Copyright Claimed

Dear Senator,

I request you exercise your Constitutional and statutory authority to object to the certification of any elector from any state that refuses to allow a meaningful audit of the November general election for electors to the Presidency, which must include: 1) a re-canvass of the vote that authorizes independent confirmation of a signature match using the same standards the same election officials use for nomination petitions, recall petitions, and initiative petitions; 2) publishing of the ballots for the world to review and observe, as states promised when they wrote large taxpayer checks to election machine companies like Dominion and others; and 3) audited review of the voter rolls to insure only qualified voters cast ballots for electors to the Presidency. If a state refuses to allow an honest audit of the vote, then I request you object to the certification of any electors from that state which has refused such an audit. At present, this includes the electors from Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

There is reason for my concern. The state legislatures in the respective states chose a method for choosing electors to the Presidency that cabined who qualified to vote, constricted the manner in which a vote could be cast, and circumscribed how the vote could be counted. Many of the restrictions and requirements for each of those three were not followed by several of the states in question. President Carter warned in 2005 that absentee ballots posed the greatest risk of fraud. The New York Times agreed in 2012 that absentee ballots posed the greatest risk of fraud. Jurists, experts, and election officials all concurred that mass mail-in balloting posed the greatest risk of fraud. We just had the biggest absentee-ballot driven election in American history. Yet, the very safety guardrails of this election were systemically and systematically removed, often without the assent or consent of the state legislatures, despite the express promise and explicit protection of the Electors Clause to the Constitution. Midnight counts outside the meaningful observation of poll-watchers. 11% signature mismatches according to the Democratic expert in the election contest in Arizona. Votes from dead people, non-citizens, and non-residents found in the research of Matt Braynard and Richard Baris. Is it really too much to ask that states publish the ballots they promised to publish? Is it really too much to ask that states allow an independently confirmed signature match, at least to a statistically significant sample, of the absentee ballots? Is it really too much to ask for the states to affirm that only those qualified to vote cast ballots for the Presidency?

The Supreme Court directed any remedy to you, and Congress, when it declined to hear the case brought by the state of Texas, a suit joined by the Attorneys General for 18 states representing more than 100 million Americans, 126 members of Congress, high ranking state legislators from the objectionable elections of the states at issue, and public interest advocacy groups representing millions of Americans. I ask that you do me the small favor of simply objecting to electors under the circumstances herein described. At a minimum, it can give confidence to me, and more than 74 million Americans who voted for President Trump, that our concerns about this election were taken seriously and meaningfully addressed in the only place the courts have directed remedy can occur: the halls of Congress.

The Constitutional conscience of the country depends upon the choices you make. Many thanks for your kind attention to these critical concerns.

Thank You,

XXX

A blast from the past

Laura Loomer confirmed that the video of her holding the drone is real. So I asked the obvious question as to how she could ever be trusted if barely 2 years ago, she was that susceptible to Russian propaganda.

Someone replied to me that they could easily find examples where I’ve done a 180 on issues. I asked which. Didn’t get an answer from that person, but a troll actually answered “Covid”. And provided a link to a YouTube video from March 27, 2020.

As the expression goes, you can’t have a reasonable conversation with someone whose sole purpose it is to misunderstand.

And the bad faith actors will always pretend to not understand a clear joke.

But the video is hilarious! I should thank them for reminding me of it, because I totally forgot about it.

Classic!

Mitch McConnell still MIA

It’s dereliction of duty at the individual level, and at the party level. Letting the Democrats score an easy win, and making it look like they are in fact looking out for the will of the people over the Republican Party itself, is a self own.

Where the heck is Mitch McConnell?

Fake Shiloh Hendrix fundraiser

The man who set up a fraudulent impersonation of Shiloh Hendrix in order to solicit donations from MAGA is now claiming it was a “social experiment”.

That he didn’t keep the money he admits to having fraudulently solicited.

Unfortunately, under the circumstances, “it was just a joke, bro” will likely not cut it.

Wire fraud under 18 U.S.C. § 1343 requires:

• A scheme or artifice to defraud, or to obtain money or property by means of false or fraudulent pretenses, representations, or promises.
• Specific intent to defraud
• Use of interstate or foreign wire communications in furtherance of the scheme
• That any misrepresentation was material.

Lack of fraudulent intent is a complete defense. But that requires good-faith belief in the truth of statements, honest mistakes, or pure non-fraudulent motives - which can include a true practical joke with no design to obtain money/property.

On its face, not the case here.

And the really sad thing is he’s got a young kid. That he ...

A. Art of the Day 
  • Winslow Homer’s portrait of a farmer bestows even more than seen/scene in the painting, as the painting itself bestows the story of America — the farmer, in simple dress, shears the fields of America’s expanse to feed a hungry nation, the hearty yeoman of labor turning land into sustenance and a place into a nation. But the title and timing tells an even starker story — ’The Veteran in a New Field” displayed in 1865 after the end of the Civil War. 
 
B. Wisdom of the Day
