The Supreme Court’s Day of Reckoning is Coming

The court seems to have three distinct voting blocs:

* The oath keepers -- These are the justices that are willing to stand up and defend the Constitution even if it means they’ll have to endure attacks. Justices Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch make up this bloc.

* The jellyfish -- These are the justices that lack the spine to face controversy. They’re more concerned about defending the court than the Constitution. Justices Roberts, Barrett, and Kavanaugh make up this bloc.

* The subversives -- These are the justices that have been using penumbras and emanations to rewrite the constitution in pursuit of social engineering. Justices Kagan, Sotomayor, and Breyer make up this bloc.

Somebody forgot to tell Thomas he was an "oath keeper" in the latest 7-2 Obamacare ruling.

Day of Reckoning? Meaningless drama speak. Roll Eyes

Why do I even bother getting into this shit? The only real Day of Reckoning is Judgment Day, when all these criminals will pay.

This one is a little wild, but it appears some people are talking about it


If the Republicans take the House back in 2022, they would have the votes to select the House Speaker (presently Nancy Pelosi is House Speaker)

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/...f-the-house-n2591231

Matt Schlapp: "There is a lot of buzz out there that Donald Trump would even be potentially someone they crown as Speaker of the House"

According to the U.S. Constitution, "The House of Representatives shall [choose] their Speaker and other Officers; and shall have the sole Power of Impeachment."

Unlikely, but what a show that would be

I believe I read somewhere that the Speaker of the House doesn't have to be an elected Representative. Don't remember where, though.

regarding the ongoing Arizona vote audit

https://theconservativetreehou...cuments/#more-213187

The group known as American Oversight is a Lawfare group working on behalf of the DNC and allied left-wing activists. They have filed suit against the Arizona senate trying to find evidence they can use to marginalize the audit before the findings are made public.

Seemingly pretending not to know about the separation of power between the state legislative body and the state judicial branch, the activists are filing suits to get access to the evidence in an ongoing Senate investigation. Essentially, this is akin to demanding to sue for legislative content before the Senate can create the law and/or the harm from that law.

It is a clear Lawfare fishing expedition.

Remember, in order for far-left ideologues to advance their ideology, and/or ideological narratives, they must pretend not to know things. Another way to look at this is the Arizona Senate subpoena -which initiated the audit- is akin to an ongoing investigation. The Lawfare group are trying to get custody of details of the investigative techniques being used (forensic audit) in order to undermine the investigation itself.

That's interesting, especially considering that the Speaker is 2nd in line to the Presidency.

Seems like a lot of redactions in this document.
29-page report to Georgia Sec of State on Fulton Co

I wonder what they are redacting and why?
Hmmmm…

Seems like the Freedom of Information Act would have a lot more bite if the criminals were not allowed to redact that which makes them look like criminals.

Article 1, Section 2, Paragraph 1: The House of Representatives shall be composed of Members chosen every second Year by the People of the several States, and the Electors in each State shall have the Qualifications requisite for Electors of the most numerous Branch of the state Legislature.

Article 1, Section 2, Paragraph 5: The House of Representatives shall chuse [sic] the Speaker and other officers; and shall have the sole Power of Impeachment.

By logic, the Speaker must be a member of the House of Representatives; but then since when does “logic” ever rule in WashDC.

President Donald Trump responds to the idea of him becoming Speaker of the House in 2022


"Well, I’ve heard the talk and it’s getting more and more. But it’s not something that I would’ve considered but it is certainly — there’s a lot of talk about it. I have a good relationship with Kevin [McCarthy] and hopefully we will do everything traditionally. But the election was a horrible, horrible thing for our country."

It’s Beginning to Look Like Enemy Action
By John Green

Dong Jingwei is a Chinese defector working with the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA). He served as Vice Minister of State Security in the Chinese Ministry of Defense. Before defecting, he was responsible for the counterintelligence efforts in China. He was in a position to know about all things “espionage” in China and is perhaps the highest-level Chinese defector the U.S. has ever had. Even though the legacy media is playing it down, this is a big deal.

It speaks volumes that the man who knows the identity of all the Chinese spies in our country chose to defect to the DIA and only the DIA. Further, it’s reported that the DIA is not sharing the information it’s receiving with the FBI or CIA. Now, why would that be?

Dong provided details of meetings between U.S. officials, Chinese spies, and Russian SVR agents. He also provided details about how the Chinese government gained access to CIA communications, which resulted in the deaths of dozens of CIA assets. Anonymous sources are also reporting that members of the federal law enforcement community (i.e. FBI) are “scared s**tless” about Dong’s information.

Is it possible that the FBI and CIA are hopelessly compromised? As we’d say in Minnesota -- you betcha!

Dong has allegedly provided the names of Chinese spies working or attending universities in the U.S. He claims that a third of Chinese students in this country are actually PLA assets. To validate his claims, Dong has provided financial records showing which businessmen and public officials have received money from the Chinese Government. Private persons receiving money may or may not be illegal depending on what they’re doing for it. If they’re selling protected technology, it’s illegal. If they’re influencing public opinion, it may not be illegal, but is still problematic. However, public officials receiving money is a huge deal -- it’s either bribery or espionage.

How much are businesses, educators, public officials, and opinion influencers beholden to China? It appears to be a disturbing number.

Dong provided copies of Hunter Biden’s laptop hard drives to the DIA. Granted, there’s not much that’s secret about that laptop anymore. But isn’t China verifying their possession of those drives kind of like a blackmailer showing his victim pictures of himself in bed with an underage girl? How incriminating is that picture when information from Hunter’s laptop is combined with financial records which the Chinese surely have? Maybe there’s more than one underage girl in that photo.

In 2015, the Aviation Industry Corp of China (AVIC) acquired Henniges Automotive. This acquisition is significant because Henneges Automotive provides stealth technology for the F-35 program. AVIC’s U.S. partners in this acquisition were none other than Hunter Biden and Chris Heinz. The acquisition was approved by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS). Secretary of State John Kerry was a member of the CFIUS during this decision. He is also the stepfather of -- surprise, surprise -- Chris Heinz! Dong provided details of how China was able to acquire stealth technology after the U.S. approved its purchase of Henniges Automotive.

Anyone who doesn’t see that the Biden family's financial ties to China leave President Asterisk vulnerable to blackmail is hopelessly naïve.

Dong provided copies of pathogenic studies to the DIA which show that the Chinese military was involved in the development of the COVID-19 virus. He also provided copies of Chinese models which predicted the spread and damage that the pandemic would do to the U.S. and the rest of the world. Given what we’re learning about Dr. Fauci and his “gain of function” research, we may have paid China to develop a weapon that was used against us.

Further, the Chinese government changed the travel plans of Chinese students returning to the U.S. after the Christmas break. Their travel plans were advanced so that they returned much earlier than originally planned -- prior to the outbreak of the pandemic. Dong reportedly claimed that they were tasked to gather information about the U.S. response to the pandemic. They were to gather information on:

Policy changes
Economic response and damage
Impacts on the healthcare system
Impacts on the supply chain
Civil unrest

The implication is that even if the Chinese government did not intentionally release the virus, they intentionally let it spread and used it as an espionage bonanza. As a side benefit to the Chinese, COVID-19 provided the excuse for massive election changes, which facilitated the removal of President Donald Trump -- China’s greatest threat. They learned from the Democrats not to let a good crisis go to waste.

As far as we know, Dong has not provided any direct information about BLM or Antifa. However, the fact that returning Chinese students were tasked to monitor civil unrest is quite curious. If our FBI and CIA weren’t hopelessly compromised, they might consider following the money. But we already know that won’t be happening.

This all brings me to the most important point -- have we been under attack from China and didn’t know it? A colleague recently reminded me of the Goldfinger dictum: “Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times, now that is enemy action.”

https://www.americanthinker.co...ke_enemy_action.html



"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."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

https://justthenews.com/politi...-clerk-2020-election

The now-retired elections clerk in a key Wisconsin county says political activists working for a group funded by Mark Zuckerberg money seized control of the November elections in Green Bay and other cities, sidelining career experts and making last-minute changes that may have violated state law.

"They had no business doing that," ex-Brown County Clerk Sandy Juno told Just the News, recounting how funding from the Zuckerberg-backed Center for Tech and Civic Life injected chaos and unnecessary changes to how ballots were counted in Green Bay in November.

Juno, a Republican who helped administer her county's elections for 22 years, also called on policymakers to ban future grant money going from rich donors to local election referees because of the potential for corrupt influence.

election management in Green Bay was turned on its head last year after a massive infusion of cash from CTCL.

The group poured millions of dollars into multiple key Wisconsin Democratic strongholds in the months leading up to last year's presidential race, ostensibly in an effort to shore up voting systems and infrastructure amid the SARS-Cov-2 pandemic. The organization was ultimately funded with more than a third of a billion dollars by Zuckerberg and his wife Priscilla Chan; that money was funneled to additional election funding efforts across the country.

Juno claimed that following the infusion of the CTCL cash into Green Bay "the mayor's office and chief of staff began to take over election functions."

"And that is not something under state statutes they have the authority to do," she said, "because under Wisconsin law, municipal clerks, the county clerk and the Wisconsin Elections Commission are the individuals charged with running elections."

"As we got closer to the November election," she said, "we found out that this outside group had come in and was basically trying to redo our forms and documents that we use statewide. And these people were from out of state and had no business doing that."

" They were working primarily with our five major Democratic base cities . So they were breaking the consistency of documents and processes and procedures used statewide."

Neither CTCL nor the Green Bay mayor's office immediately responded to requests for comment on Tuesday evening. Emails revealed earlier this year showed efforts by CTCL and other groups to, in part, redesign ballot instructions and other election documents in multiple cities around the state, including Green Bay.

"As clerks, we meet with our state elections commission at least three times a year," she told Solomon, "and [we] have continuous and ongoing correspondence with them, so that, you know, the whole state is conducting the elections in harmony.

"When you have an outside group coming in, and all of a sudden trying to dictate how to run an election — and these people were all from out of state. They had no expertise in Wisconsin, for our processes and procedures for conducting an election."

Juno argued that the management "had an impact on the overall election," and that the process itself was "very closely monitored by individuals who are normally not running elections."

the thing that happened with CTCL is with those agreements, if those municipalities did not follow what was in those grant agreements, they had the authority to claw back those dollars," she explained, arguing that it would have been different had the cities "been given money and had the authority to use it how they saw fit."

"But that was not the case," she said. "They had to use it how CTCL saw fit."

Why is that not sedition? They corrupted an election process to deny the rightful party from taking office?
