Judge, sister of Stacey Abrams, rules that voters who have changed their address can vote at old address

A Georgia judge related to former Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams ruled that voters who have changed their address can still vote from their previous address.

“This makes no sense. A judge (the sister of Stacey Abrams) ruled that when someone tells the US Postal Service they have moved they still can vote from their old address,” former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer tweeted. “Rules have no meaning any more. This is nuts.”


They know exactly what they're doing...anything...ANYTHING to get their way. What happened in November has only emboldened them. Why wouldn't they?? Not like anyone with the power/authority to do anything is actually stopping it.

It is absolutely appalling that the races are even considered anywhere close...

So did Trump just get McConnel to do what Trump and we wanted? Or is that just the line item?

This is a new bill that raises the stimulus from $600.00 to $2000.00 for each American. The old bill with all the pork will remain either way.

I think tonight I'll have a couple of brews, and toast President Trump. Even with all that is going on, I can't help but feel as hopeful as I was on Jan. 20, 1981.

I would like to remind those that need reminding;

Donald J. Trump is still the same man he was before he ran in 2016, and the same man who has almost, with few exceptions, fought against the evil and self serving bottom filth that rises to the top. The same filth that has, day and night, obstructed, interfered, maligned, out right performed many a deceit and bald face lied to We the People... for the entirety.

Yet, some still behave as if Trump has let them down.

How pitiful.

Y'all recall that "mirror" thing I spoke of before?

Serious as a literal heart attack. Stop what you are doing, right now, walk in, turn on the light, and look at that man (or woman) in the mirror and ask, with complete honesty.

"Do I honor the commitment to the man I voted for?"

I mean, real, honest, nothing left to give, honor.

And if you are a spiritual person, pray. If you are not, consider a moment of positive reflection and wishing good will and strength.

You think the year has been dark for you?

Imagine, what it must be like for the loneliest man in the world.

Because, Donald. J. Trump pretty much fits that bill.

I have had nothing at all to my name, no home, no body that I could trust to call upon. And I have had prosperity, power, influence, title, and more.

But in both cases, I did find myself in a very dark place, and, yet neither circumstance was a concern or a thought. Only the darkness, pain and anguish.

So, do not simply kick the can down the road thinking Donald J. Trump has little to lose in this whole thing.

The only one who will know if you are honest, is the one doing the soul search, and the Creator. Whatever that means to you.

I am not looking for, nor do I want any affirmation or comment on this, just that you honestly do the thing.

Thank you.

well this is interesting...

The Senate Finance Committee just released a report saying that Obama knowingly financed Al Qaeda, through an organization known as the Islamic Relief Agency (ISRA), through World Vision (read: CIA), backed by a massive grant from USAID, and later with approval from the Obama State Department.

+1 Sigmonkey. Trump has not let me down at all. THE SYSTEM and what was supposed to be checks and balances and a true election is what has really let me down. Pretty depressed about it. I know it's not over, but the dragging along and no clear win so far....are getting the better part of me.

You all know what would be just fantastic. If on 1/6 VP Pence used one of the Dominion machines to count the electoral college returns.

VP Pence could even make a show of using a USB drive to upload the software immediately prior to starting the count.

Seems that Pence isn't with us either. I feel like I'm living in the Twilight Zone.

Pence refused to sign on to plan to overturn election, lawyers say

Lawyers representing Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) and Arizona’s 11 GOP electors disclosed in a court filing Tuesday that Vice President Pence rejected their request to join their attempt to subvert the results of the presidential election.

Gohmert and the electors filed suit against Pence on Monday in an attempt to argue that the vice president has sole authority to determine which presidential electors Congress will count when it certifies the results of the election. The far-fetched suit essentially asks the court to grant Pence the authority on Jan. 6 to overrule the results in swing states such as Arizona and have Congress count only pro-Trump electors instead of the ones President-elect Joe Biden won.

In new court filings made public Tuesday, the plaintiffs disclosed that they had reached out to Pence before filing their suit in an attempt to join forces but that their talks did not reach any kind of agreement.

“In the teleconference, Plaintiffs' counsel made a meaningful attempt to resolve the underlying legal issues by agreement, including advising the Vice President's counsel that Plaintiffs intended to seek immediate injunctive relief in the event the parties did not agree,” lawyers for Gohmert and the electors said in the filing. “Those discussions were not successful in reaching an agreement and this lawsuit was filed.”

The revelation was made in a filing in which Gohmert’s attorneys sought an expedited schedule for a ruling to try to press U.S. District Judge Jeremy Kernodle of the Eastern District of Texas to decide the case by Jan. 4, two days before the certification.

Ex-Pence aide turned Trump critic 'very concerned' about Jan. 6...
Trump targets congressional Republicans on multiple fronts

The decision by Pence, one of President Trump’s most ardent loyalists, marks one of the most notable breaks with his boss, who has pushed lawmakers to challenge Congress’s certification of the Electoral College results. Pence will oversee the joint session on Jan. 6 during which Biden will be recognized by Congress as the victor in the White House election, though the role is largely ceremonial.

Pence has not made any public remarks indicating how he plans to handle the Jan. 6 joint session of Congress, nor has he commented on Trump’s unrelenting pressure campaign urging lawmakers to reverse the Electoral College results.

Trump’s efforts to influence the Electoral College certification comes after a sprawling legal campaign to overturn results in individual states on allegations of voter fraud and irregularities largely failed. Virtually all of the GOP cases were tossed in court for lack of evidence or standing.

The only turd polishing I can do is to say The Hill is pretty biased to the left. Hopefully this is only more claptrap to demoralize people?

This is the same Gohmert who broke the bullshit news about the raid and seizure of some Scytl server in Germany? How did that work out? Roll Eyes

Why be surprised at this. Everything that slime ball did was aimed at supporting radical Islamic extremists and other types.

Yeah, if you pay attention to the selection of words and phrases, it's really an opinion piece masquerading as a news article. As mentioned above, it's The Hill, what do you expect?
