I emailed Amy Klobuchar this morning requesting she talk to AG Ellison in regards to joining the Texas lawsuit. I linked to the letter she signed just a year ago along with Lizzy Warren and others about their deep concern about Dominion voting machines and the integrity of the U.S election infrastructure. I told her if it was important then it's vitally important now. I layed this quote from the letter on her.

We are particularly concerned that secretive and ''trouble-plagued
companies,"2 owned by private equity firms and responsible for manufacturing and maintaining
voting machines and other election administration equipment, "have long skimped on security in
favor of convenience," leaving voting systems across the country "prone to security problems.

Fat chance in hell Minnesota joins this but I got to rub her nose in it a little bit. If it even gets past who ever screens her stuff that is.

I totally agree with this statement. Romney in particular, has these 'ethics' or 'good conscious' statements he flaunts all too regularly. He apparently keep them in a drawer somewhere while he's busy making his congressional under the table money but then drags them out and waves them about proudly when he needs to look more pious than the guy in the White House doing all the hard work and getting his fingernails dirty. President Trump may certainly be blunt, unfiltered and spoiling for a street fight, but you know what? He's honest about it, and he most often says the things out loud that I'm already thinking.

I'm feeling similarly uneasy about our new governor-elect, but given that he's new, maybe he'll come around. Mike Lee needs more time w/ Ted Cruz and less time w/ Romney. Our reps seem solid so far, at least now that we got rid of McAdams (McPelosi).

So the lawsuit is up to 8 states? Seems like some momentum...

That would seem to be tougher to offhandedly dismiss as 3-4...

If you get a response post it, I'd be interested in what she has to say. I used one of the NRA form things when they were trying all the BS gun laws a couple years ago and I actually got a response back from the Tina Smith group basically telling me they didn't give a shit what my opinion was in regards to gun control and that they needed to do the right things. They freaking make me sick with their BS.

Amy is the biggest hypocrite around.

Troll level 1,000 sir. You win.


So are these states really joined in the lawsuit? As I understand they WANT to be but it has to be approved by the judge. Much like Trump joining it. Any of our legal friends want to confirm that as Im seeing mixed reporting? It's good that the support is there though.

I hope the conservative Justices on the Supreme Court are smart enough to realize that if they don't do their part in overturning this Presidential election, their very existence will depend on the Georgia runoff election.
If the Libs get control of the Senate and pack the court, the conservative Justices will become irrelevant and might as well take a seat at the back of the room.

Excellent analogy! Big Grin



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."

"I'm worried about the credibility of elections, not just right now, but I'm worried about the credibility of elections going forward,"

"I'm not making a fraud argument, I'm making an argument based on the Constitution. And what we know happened, which was that we know state law was changed by people other than the state legislature, which is the only constitutionally authorized changes that are allowed.”

Where's that jackass RINO Romney? Figured he'd be at some microphone loudly complaining. Asshole!


He's clucking about the 'madness' of challenging the election, yet was okay with the impeachment sham. Romney is at a minimum an A-hole. More likely he's a thinly veiled Dem.

There is a subset of the population here in Utah that oozes pearl clutching sanctimony and looks down it's nose at anyone beneath the acceptable moral code even if that missed mark is perceived only. Romney is a poster boy for that attitude. To be clear I love my fellow Utah residents of that subset. They are, by most measures, fine people. But they can cut off their nose to spite their face reflexively. My brother is one of them.

All they had to do was hear once what Trump said in a locker room or among the guys and that's it, "I'll take the gentleman commie over the coarse promoter of liberty and prosperity". When the fact is if all could have their skeletons exposed, none of us are truly any more moral. I'll be the first to admit I am a failed religionist who aspires to greater character. I can confidently say that if all knew the contents of my closet, astonishment would be an understatement. But I know what liberty is and how important it is to preserve it. I understand the value of prosperity and how to promote it. I know who the enemies of the USA are and who are our friends. And I don't engage in deception and secret combinations like Romney and those like him.

The pearl clutching button pushers around here would reject me for Lucifer himself if he were gentlemanly and kept his destruction in the closet.

some may have seen the earlier post about Michigan Democratic House Representative Cynthia Johnson

follow up:

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/...-supporters-n2581289

Michigan Democratic House Representative Cynthia Johnson has been stripped of her committee assignments and is under investigation after threatening Trump supporters during a Facebook live video on Tuesday.

Michigan House Speaker Lee Chatfield called Johnson's threats "unacceptable" and said the representative has been stripped of her committee assignments.

"Threats to either Democrats or Republicans are unacceptable and un-American," said Chatfield in a statement. "They're even more unbecoming of an elected official. Rep. Johnson has been removed from her committee assignments, and we are looking into further disciplinary action as the proper authorities conduct their own investigations."

People like that are modern Pharisees; virtue-signaling, elitist, wailing in the town square about how humble & virtuous they are and yet unwilling to defend the same beliefs that they tell everyone they practice.

I'll assert the consequences are greater than that. If we lose free speech (which we have) and our vote no longer matters, there is only one thing left.
