The biggest news story of the day


FOX settled out of court with Dominion. So far, thirty minutes in to his show and Hannity has not mentioned one word about how FOX lied about Dominion. That 2020 election was not rigged. Trump lost fair and square.

reply

He should have been fired

reply

How do you know it wasn't rigged? There hasn't been an official investigation yet. What happened to the chicanery?

reply

There hasn't been an official investigation yet
because there doesn't need to be 2016 was rigged in Favor of Trump since he is an Ally of Putin Facts Dont care about feelings you buttHurt RepubliKKKan Drone.

reply

Wouldn't it make sense to investigate though? It would be nice to know if Joe colluded with China or not.

That wasn't a Federal investigation and they didn't have access to cross exanimate/subpoena witnesses.

I am just glad the 2016 election was investigated. It proved that Trump won fair and square.

reply

But he didn't,,,,.Barr let him off the hook

reply

No he didn't, he had no evidence to pursue a case. Mueller found no collusion. The 2020 election hasn't been investigated yet for chicanery.

reply

the Biden administration confirmed that a Russian government agent with close connections to Donald Trump’s top 2016 campaign official “provided the Russian Intelligence Services with sensitive information on polling and [Trump] campaign strategy.”

LOLZ, good try Biden. Mueller said there was no collusion.

I assume the Biden admin will also be investigating whether or not there was any chicanery in the 2020 election.

reply

63 court challenges of the election and not a shred of evidence for fraud was produced. The Teenage Mutant Cyber Ninja Turtles investigated in Maricopa County for several months and found nothing. What the hell is there to investigate?

reply

There was no evidence in 2016 and that election was still investigated. Why not have a Special Counsel investigate the 2020 for any chicanery or Russian collusion? It would only make sense to see if Russia hijacked our election again.

reply

Maybe Tucker Carlson will cover this story on his Monday broadcast over at FOX news???

reply

What election results were investigated for fraud in the 2016 election?

reply

that he was concerned the Clinton Campaign would respond to a loss by moving immediately
to discredit the [Trump] victory and claim voter fraud and cyber fraud, including the claim that
the Russians have hacked into the voting machines and tampered with the results.

You aren't identifying any voter fraud which was investigated regarding the 2016 election, which is something that you claimed happened.

Senator Elizabeth Warren published an article on her website on the vulnerabilities of the United States' election system titled "Strengthening Our Democracy" on June 25, 2019:

"The harsh truth is that our elections are extremely vulnerable to attack: Forty-two states use voter registration databases that are more than a decade old. Laughably, in 2019, some still use Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

Trump "knows he’s an illegitimate president," Clinton said. "I believe he understands that the many varying tactics they used, from voter suppression and voter purging to hacking to the false stories — he knows that — there were just a bunch of different reasons why the election turned out like it did … I know he knows this wasn’t on the level."

"I think he’s going to be inaugurated this week," Sanders said. "I have great concerns, apparently Republicans do as well, and there’s going to be an investigation about the role that Russian hacking played in getting (Trump) elected."

Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga., said in January 2017 he would not attend Trump’s inauguration. "I do not see this president-elect as a legitimate president," he told NBC. "I think there was a conspiracy on the part of the Russians and others that helped him get elected. That’s not right. That’s not fair. That’s not the open democratic process."

Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., was among seven House Democrats who raised futile objections to the Electoral College count by Congress in January 2017 that certified Trump’s victory. They tried to argue that the election was tainted by Russian interference and voter suppression.

reply

Say there Mr. TheGut, how is that Supreme Court reinstallment of DJT coming along?

I am willing to wager your credibility against mine that DJT gets criminally indicted by a court before he gets reinstalled by the Supreme Court.

Willing to accept my credibility wager?

reply

But there was evidence of Russian interference and that is what was investigated. There is now no doubt that Russia did things to influence the ejection. We also know that people high up in the Trump campaign were agents for the Russian government. Manafort was sentenced to jail for not registering his agency.

But Mueller reported that he could not tell if the Trump campaign coordinated with Russia because of obstruction of the investigation by Trump. He laid out 10 counts of how Trump obstructed.

But, none of this is like the outright lies told by Republicans about fraud in vote counting in 2020. Our the plots to replace legitimate Electors with false ones, thereby overturning the valid election results. This was a huge effort that took place in several states. There are no doubts about that. None.

Wasn't Obama President in 2016? The only thing Russia was guilty of was putting fake ads on Social Media. Thats not Trumps fault.

No, the presidential election can’t be hacked
https://www.cnn.com/2016/10/19/politics/election-day-russia-hacking-explained/index.html

President Barack Obama on Tuesday downplayed Donald Trump's suggestion that November's election is "rigged," and said the GOP presidential nominee needs to toughen up.

"I'd advise Mr. Trump to stop whining and try to go make his case to get votes," Obama said at a White House news conference alongside Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi.

Obama tells Trump to 'stop whining' over rigged election claims

No one was a Russian agent. No proof and claim is libelous.

Special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation did not find sufficient evidence that President Donald Trump’s campaign coordinated with Russia to influence the United States’ 2016 election and did not take a clear position on whether Trump obstructed justice.

Dems tried to overturn the election 3 times. First with the Mueller Report and then 2 fake impeachment attempts.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said President Donald Trump would “lie, cheat and steal to win this election” on Wednesday’s broadcast of ABC’s “The View.”

I’m still worried that they could steal this election. I know that the Russians are still involved. Trump’s own Department of Homeland Security just released a report warning that Russia is a key threat to the election.

How come Trump didnt steal the election again with Russia's help?

reply

Why is the DOJ investigating Jan 6 but not the election?

reply

Because many members of the GOP were involved in a coup to overthrow the election.
They have facts, emails, texts+ and data to prove it.

Donald Trump had a team looking into widespread voter fraud but turned up nothing.
61 court cases thrown out court.
The cyber ninjas found nothing in Arizona and pillow spent 35 million looking for fraud but found nothing
Dominion voting machines sued FOX news for 753 million for espousing lies about their machines and guess what?, they won!

Senator Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., discussed her concerns with the three main voting machine manufacturers in the 2020 HBO Documentary, Kill Chain: The Cyber War on America's Elections:

“We’re very concerned because there are only three companies. You could easily hack into them. It makes it seem like all these states are doing different things, but in fact, three companies are controlling them.”

Those were independent investigations. Where is the link for the official US Gov investigation?

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said President Donald Trump would “lie, cheat and steal to win this election” on Wednesday’s broadcast of ABC’s “The View.”

Behar said, “I’m dreaming of the day when we all say ‘President Nancy Pelosi.’ I think that sounds really good. But the polls are showing that Biden is ahead in key swing states. It’s very encouraging in many ways, Pennsylvania, et cetera, but I’m still worried that they could steal this election. I know that the Russians are still involved. Trump’s own Department of Homeland Security just released a report warning that Russia is a key threat to the election. Now we knew this going into 2016 too, and we saw how that turned out. This is why I’m not counting my chickens at all. I’m still nervous. People have to vote, and we have to win in a landslide. How concerned are you about that?”

She continued, “He’s trying to dismantle the Postal Service to undermine vote by mail. He’s inviting practically voter interference into our elections. The voter suppression and intimidation that he is bragging about practically that they are engaged in, and it’s really a shame in terms of our Constitution and our sacred right to vote. But again, we’re ready. We’re ready. I will do everything in my power to make sure that matter how he tries to declare victory or undermine the electoral college or try to win in the House —he’s bragging now he’s going to win in the House —I will assure you of this, with a free and fair election Joe Biden will be inaugurated.

I thought Trump was going to steal the election again with the help of Russia? I thought Trump was going to rig the election by dismantling the Post Office? Where is the investigation into Russian collusion and tampering with the mail? Is Trump guilty of this or not?

reply

I SAID that they were independent investigations . . .

He DID try to dismantle the Post Office during the election period. It was horrible. He instituted a new Postmaster General riiiight before the election who had no idea what he was doing and no experience. My business relied on shipping through the post office and it got bad so dramatically during that period that all my shipments were messed up for MONTHS. It wasn't just bad it was incredible, nothing I sent out went to it's destination and ended up costing the Post Office a ton of money.

The teams that researched the election in those articles was HIRED by Trump, so if they were going to be biased it would be for him! Also there were more independent researchers who were extremely biased and they didn't find anything either.

You have simply chosen not to believe the results so no amount of proof will ever satisfy you.

Confirmation bias is our tendency to cherry-pick information that confirms our existing beliefs or ideas. Confirmation bias explains why two people with opposing views on a topic can see the same evidence and come away feeling validated by it.

Nancy and all the other democrats and media did the same thing to Trump when he won in 2016. They chose not to believe he was the legitimate President and tried to illegally remove him 3 times. Nancy purported a lie that Trump colluded with Russia to steal the election. When Trump sued, his case was thrown out. When Fox News said that Dominion committed election fraud, they got sued and Fox paid out.

Why are people allowed to say the 2016 election was stolen but no one is allowed to say the 2020 election was stolen? The pillow guy was canceled for the same thing Nancy did.

Here are the dems complaining about elections being hacked.

I have yet to get one legitimate response.

reply

You are ALLOWED to complain that the election was stolen but it wasn't. Any Democrat that still believes that the 2016 election was stolen is wrong. I don't know any democrats that still insist it was stolen in 2016 but if they do, they should let it go. Evidence matters.

They didn't try to 'illegally' remove Trump, that's nonsense. They legally had him investigated. The investigation didn't exonerate him, he lied and said that they found no evidence of collusion when that was absolutely not true, they just didn't have enough evidence to 'convict' him.

Trump lies so much and people seem to just believe him despite him being provrd a liar over and over again.

reply

Everyone knows now the 2016 election wasn't stolen because it was investigated for 2 years.

But my point is, is that the 2016 election was investigated while the 2020 election was not investigated. It was perfectly sane for people to say the 2016 election was stolen but now people that say the 2020 election was stolen are insane. This is despite the dems saying that Trump was going to steal the election. The dems are basically gaslighting America.

If Trump wins in 2024, the dems will say the election was stolen again. If DeSantis or another Republican wins they wont say it was stolen. If Biden wins, the dems will not say the election was stolen.

reply

The difference is that everyone knew that Trump was planning on saying that the election was stolen if he lost. He said as much.

reply

Trump fucked up and lost

reply

Have you confronted fake Yatzo yet?

reply

All Trump had to do prior to the 2020 election was wear a damn mask and look like he meant it. All Trump had to do was endorse what Dr. Fauci was advising us to do and he would have won with a landslide.

I was so proud to vote for Trump in 2016 as a registered Republican. I cannot stand liberal politics with the exception of the abortion issue. I have been pro- choice for over 50 years. And.....guess what? Trump is pro-choice too. He had to change his tune when he ran under the Republican ticket for President for the 2016 election. There is video of Trump saying he is pro-choice prior to him switching his stance.

Getting back to how Trump messed up his chances in 2020 to succeed as a second term president. I'm only one person with one vote but Trump lost my vote in the 2020 election because of the way he handled the pandemic. He messed up big time and was a total embarrassment to himself and to our nation.

I was so against Trump by the time the 2020 election came around, neither candidate received my vote. Times that by the thousands or people who felt the same as I did. I'm not proud to say this but I did not cast a vote for president in the 2020 election. I certainly did not want to vote for Trump but I could not bring myself to cast a vote against Trump which meant to vote for Biden. I am so against everything the liberals stand for with the exception of the abortion issue (as I have already stated).

Trump could have won the 2020 election in a landslide. All he had to do was wear a mask before we had vaccines to save lives from Covid. He did not so he lost.......BIG TIME. He knows it but will not admit it.

reply

Trump and his idiot minions believe that the Democrats created a pandemic which killed millions just to make Trump look bad so he wouldn't be re-elected.

reply

Sure he did.

reply

still awaiting Trumps prison sentence regardless he cant run next year

reply

Interesting. Almost like his prosecution was politically motivated.

reply

I think it is more likely that the delay in the indictment was politically motivated.

reply

LOL!!!

reply

Huh? Sadly, he could still run even if he were to be convicted and sent to prison...He couldn't vote for himself , though!

reply

Trump can run from prison. No law against it. It is unlikely that the GOP is foolish enough to nominate him again.

reply

People say things like that, but the parties don't make that decision - voters in primaries do.

reply

Yes, GOP voters.

reply

Trump can campaign from prison. The GOP would be a fool to nominate him while in prison. They would also be foolish to nominate a proven loser like Trump even if he is found not guilty.

It is indeed rather juvenile to illogically deduce that I, an admittedly proud citizen of the USofA, who actually did vote in the last two presidential elections, as well as voted for the very first time against Edward Hanrahan as a Republican, because of the extra-judicial assassinations of Fred Hampton and Mark Clark in their beds, is a bad BOT??!!

Maturity underused.


Most certainly!

DJT promotes disinfectant.


Most certainly not! Enquiring to whatever experts in the field he was deferring to about the possibility of achieving the same virus killing results that disinfectant had is not the same thing as promotion of disinfectant! When you ask questions about unsavoury things are you promoting them? If you were to ask questions about the prevalence of white supremacy in the US and how to best counter it is that a promotion of white supremacy? No ofc not and you already knew that!

Miyagido disavows Bleach.


Most certainly not! I like to have a clean bathroom and bleach is vital to me in maintaining that. Miyagido disavows claims that Trump told people to ingest bleach, do try to keep up.

FOX lies.


Yes all news media lies. Such as CNN when they said the Kenosha riots were mostly peaceful. Or all those other left wing media outlets lying about the Sandmann kid and his friends.

DJT Lies.

Because it wasn't mostly peaceful, there were actually a number of violent incidents and multiple fatalities related to the "mostly peaceful" protest. Many on the political left claimed and still claim it to be the site of a mass shooting by a possible racist, very far from peaceful! Ties back in nicely to the earlier point about lying media. But you already knew that.
