Okay this is an enormous and important subject. I don’t think anyone has their arms fully around it — certainly not me — but Tucker and Rand Paul and Russell Brand are excellent sources.
As you may recall I mentioned to you roughly a year ago that I believed one could draw a straight unbroken line from the JFKA to Fauci.
Anyway here’s my 2¢... I think the two most heinous “crimes” committed by architects of the Plandemic were 1) insisting the “science” related to COVID-19 was known and well established (which it absolutely was not particularly with respect to COVID-19 but more generally “science” with respect to any subject is never known and well established)... and 2) insisting that those who challenged the official narrative posed the greatest threat to society and medical well being (where in fact such individuals are always the best source of crucial insights).
I think in the end their actual goals were 1) to create avenues of attack for defeating the election of Trump and then perhaps even more importantly 2) to create pretexts for shutting down free speech and particularly the Internet — because ultimately what they fear most is liberal democracy itself.
When I say I'm an "election denier," I mean it in a general sense. The elections are rigged, generally, and the pandemic provided cover for an unprecedented level of fraud. The mechanisms are easy enough to see. I would only add, by way of credibility, that I was an international election monitor in several countries over a period of six years. I've seen every trick in the book. Love Trump or hate him, something was very wrong with Election 2020. It's very dangerous to tamper with the popular vote. We may reap the whirlwind in America, after we have been undermining the popular vote in other countries for decades. The chickens are coming home to roost. It gives me zero satisfaction to say that.
The whole damn political system is rigged through gerrymandering, the electoral college, voter suppression, media blackouts on dissident candidates, and legislation that keeps third parties off the ballot. Is that a democracy? I don't think so. The Supreme Court says it can't figure out any solutions (ha!).
It wasn't necessary to tamper with the actual vote until a presidential candidate came along who the oligarchy couldn't control. Trump's principal transgression is that he won't greenlight all the wars they want. Of course, that's what got JFK killed.
How do you think the vote was tampered with? Trump's lawyers couldn't convince any judges that it was, including ones he appointed.
Although I can’t offer concrete evidence, I believe the vote was tampered with through the introduction of tens of millions of unsolicited mail-in ballots that could be cast by anyone in lieu of going to the polling stations. This is only the latest chapter in deteriorating election integrity in America.
This will get me in trouble for conspiracy theorizing, but the combination of (1) tens of millions of mail-in ballots and (2) the legality of ballot-harvesting in nearly half the states created a situation where ballots could be filled out on behalf of voters and cast for Biden with impunity. I have witnessed this in other countries, on a smaller scale, where Washington needed one or another party or candidate to win. I believe it was done in America in 2020, primarily in states where ballot-harvesting was legal, so the only illegality there would have been the actual fraud of filling out the absentee ballot on behalf of the actual voter without them knowing or specifically approving of the choice. The rest would actually have been legal. You can collect up bunches of ballots for people and put them in the drop boxes without breaking the law in (I think) 24 states. Those 6 “swing states” were only the ones where the result couldn’t by clinched quickly. In huge cities like New York and Chicago, with no monitoring, no one would even bother contesting the integrity of one person, one vote.
Again, I’ll be accused of conspiracy-theorizing, since this was made possible by the “pandemic rules” for the election. A decision was made to institute a system of unsolicited mail-in ballots, so tens of millions of those were floating around in the run-up to Election Day, and the rest was just the math of making sure Biden won. The otherwise annoying Stephen Crowder did an interesting analysis of Michigan and especially Wayne County, where Detroit is, and that (I believe) is what happened there based on the stats.
Do I believe Biden could have won fairly? Sure. I can’t prove that a popular wave of tens of millions of Trump-haters didn’t turn their resentment into action by filling out their absentee ballots for Biden and sending them in via snail mail. I doubt it, since voter turnout in America is customarily low, but it’s possible. Do I believe Biden actually won 8 million more votes than Trump fair and square? No.
It’s all moot now anyway. Biden was certified and duly sworn in. Another dirty election in America? So what.
Very plausible. Ballot harvesting has been going on in Texas for years. A very popular liberal state representative in my area was the victim of it. He was defeated in the primary by a shady opponent who won by a narrow margin through vote harvesting: sending operatives with prepared ballots around to all the senior centers and getting mentally impaired seniors to sign them. The mail-in ballot situation could be far worse. All this is nearly impossible to prove in court.
Trump's lawyers seemed to make the mistake of blaming county election workers who were honestly counting the votes they received.
What's the solution? Maybe every voter should be identified and verified to be competent before a ballot is issued.
Yeah, and I'm sorry to have to say it but Texas may have been where the most brazen election falsification really started, with Landslide Lyndon in 1948. That was a primary, of course, but in a sense that's even worse. Think Hillary v. Bernie in 2016.
And it may be more systemic even than what you describe in the nursing homes. In other words, the need to go around and get people to sign pre-prepared ballots might not even be necessary now because of the adoption of the mail-ins as an automatic choice for everyone. No actual ballot is signed, only the "envelope." The ballot is taken out, and the envelope is thrown away. When Trump's legal team were trying to do their thing, there was no hope of tracking down all the envelopes, and no way to match them with the ballots they once contained. So that was another embarrassment for Rudy Giuliani, who had already had a hair dye mishap on national television.
In my life, I have voted absentee in a presidential election twice. The ballot itself has no signature on it, but in 2020, the "envelope" I cast wasn't even sealed. You just "folded" it around the ballot in the instructed way and put it into the little box on the wall outside the U.S. Embassy. I had actually had to "make" the ballot package. I'd requested the ballot via email, and received everything via email, to be printed out, cut up and folded. It all felt very weird and insecure. In 1992, which was really pre-internet, I had to order a ballot way in advance, fill it out, and send it back snail-mail to the U.S. But even that felt more secure than in 2020.
In the old days, absentee ballots weren't even counted unless the result was very close, as in 2000, when votes from serving military personnel in Kosovo had to be counted (I can just imagine how conscientiously that was done). Now, absentee ballots have become the norm.
I doubt there is any going back, because the last I checked, the Republicans had tried to "outdo" the Democrats in the push for full virtual voting. In my state, Virginia, the Republican government has very proudly pushed this as the way of the future. No paper trail, no "nuisance" of postage stamps and envelopes. They want to appear more enlightened and advanced than the Dems.
Absolutely. Lyndon won his senate seat with 87 cemetery votes provided by the Duke of Duval, George Parr. Johnson was a scumbag, crook, and possibly a murderer via Mac Wallace, his hitman. In 1948, the Democratic Primary was the election. Republicans weren't competitive at the time.
Trump lost a great opportunity to educate the public on how our elections are insecure and to offer real solutions. He could have offered proposals for legislation to insure the fairness and accuracy of elections. Instead, he chose to try to implore state election officials to "find" more votes for himself and, after the election, to smear innocent county election workers for his loss. Trump is not bright. He just isn't. Nor does he stand on principle. He has none. Almost everything is about his self-aggrandizement.
I would like to hear at least one politician talk about how corrupt our entire political system is through gerrymandering and the other things I mentioned as well as these fraudulent election practices.
Even if Trump was robbed in 2020, he never expressed any concern about election integrity before he lost an election. So no sympathy there. He’s behind the 8-ball on that.
But I maintain that the legal strategy pursued by Giuliani, whatever one thinks of Giuliani, fell within constitutional parameters. There was nothing “illegal” about contesting Electoral College certification, and there is plenty of precedent. The letter addressed to the Senate from state legislators was perfectly civilized. So was the lawsuit by 19 states that SCOTUS refused to review. Nothing outrageous about it, and in fact I wish such contests were more frequent.
It’s just that in 2021 it all ended in rioting and vandalism, so then it became a “coup attempt” (Noam Chomsky) or an “insurrection” (MSM, using comms/PR messaging and talking points). The official historical narrative ALWAYS gets warped in America. That’s why we still have the Warren Report.
I agree with just about everything included in this thread. Chad’s scenario is highly plausible and likely close to the truth. I would only add this:
The Washington Post has after recent elections (months after IIRC) published an “interactive” digital map showing election results PRECINCT BY PRECINCT across the entire U.S.... The map is therefore both enormous and granular. It is unwieldy and difficult to navigate but you may still be able to find them. Other outlets publish maps showing county by county results but the WAPO map is by far the granddaddy of them all.
Anyway the 2020 map shows three shades of red indicating the margins by which Trump won precincts and three shades of blue showing same for Biden. Wayne County MI (ie Detroit and environs) shows **100%** of precincts in the darkest blue. We are talking about hundreds if not thousands of precincts. This is demographically and mathematically impossible. And furthermore this pattern ends abruptly as soon as you look at precincts outside Wayne County.
The Elites can’t afford to allow the voters to elect people who actually represent them. How they have prevented this has grown over the recent decades less brutal and more sophisticated.
Everything you mentioned is part of it. If you have enough money any part of the system can be bought. The Elites have that kind of money.
So far we are still a nation of laws. The solution to date remains that the people see that the laws are enforced. This is not easy in any way, shape, or form. The people must be vigilant — “A republic madam if you can keep it”.
The biggest, most dangerous, and sophisticated assaults on the Constitution are electronic voting, mail-in voting, and early voting. We can see from Chad Nagle’s posts how these devices were implemented as a response to the “crisis” of the 2000 presidential election. A textbook psy-op.
We have no choice but to push back hard. Not only must we enforce existing law but we must change law where necessary. Most critically we must push for new law dismantling the secret intelligence apparatus.
Yours is another great insight that takes us even deeper into the true nature of the problem we face (being the war on liberal democracy).
We the American People have in spite of ourselves and for over 70 years sanctioned extremely well financed and extremely highly skilled election interference operations around the world. Inevitably that weapon has now been turned against us domestically. And for anyone who has paid close enough attention it’s easy to see exactly how this was done.
Free speech died without so much as a whimper, just like our Fourth Amendment rights did previously. That really shocked me. The Twitter Files hearings spelled it all out.
What we are experiencing at this very moment is all out war against liberal democracy. It and the class of criminal Elites can no longer coexist. One must be destroyed.
For a great many years I’ve theorized that technological advances tend initially to serve the interests of the criminal class — with the general population needing time to catch up and mount a counteroffensive.
I think that’s what we’re seeing play out now. The flow of information at hypersonic speed enabled by the Internet I think has elevated the criminal Elites to a level of overwhelming dominance. But we are starting to take back that territory. The only thing that can stop us is if the Elites are able to shut down the Internet which is clearly their intention. And there’s no way to predict who wins until they either succeed or fail to succeed in shutting it down.
In 2002, I was sent to Miami-Dade County to observe the election. Apart for the congressional midterms, FL was having a gubernatorial one. Jeb Bush became the first GOP governor to win re-election I think in the history of the state.
I couldn’t observe the same way I had in Armenia, Georgia, Ukraine, etc., because 2002 saw the introduction of the Diebold touch-screen voting machines. It was actually the least transparent voting system I’d ever seen, ironically (no printed voter lists or ballots, only laptops and modems), but was introduced to prevent a repeat of the debacle in 2000. It turned out Diebold was a client of the law firm in which Bush was a partner together with (get ready for it) his Democratic opponent! The Dems nominated that guy (I forget his name) over Janet Reno, who (believe it or not) had very high poll numbers at the time.
In 2013, Diebold was done for bribery on an international scale:
A great crime was committed, and the government is covering it up by refusing to release relevant documents even after they are demanded by a US senator. Sound familiar?

I agree it was trespassing, rioting, and vandalism, certainly not a coup attempt or an insurrection.
I don't see any excuse for Giuliani's libeling the county election workers. He made those women's lives hell.

Great comments and link re Diebold.
Shows how “they” always turn a crisis (2000 election) into a pretext for increased authoritarian control.
Also shows how corrupt Diebold/Premier Election Solutions ties to ES&S, Venezuelan firm Sequoia Voting, and Canadian firm Dominian Voting.
