The election is over, supposedly, but perhaps the battle has just begun. It would seem that the “No Justice, No Peace” crowd wants to suppress an investigation of their conduct in this election.
Too extreme a statement? Let’s see.
THE 2020 ELECTION: FUCKERY IS AFOOT (monsterhunternation.com), H/T to WYLDKAT’S LAIR (undomesticatedfeline.wordpress.com), provides a review of this election’s “red flags”. That is, what indications are there that Liberal Democrats were up to no good? Note the language is okay. Don’t much care for that four letter word, but that is the extent of the vulgarity.
Is There Evidence of Election Fraud? (victorygirlsblog.com) uses the term “issues” instead of the expression “red flags”. Because there are so many issues and red flags, this Victory Girls post has little overlap with the Monster Hunter post.
The Victory Girls do have a little advice for dealing with tyrannical vote stealers. It is not pretty. On the other hand, neither was the American Revolution.
Because Everything is Political (freedomthroughempowerment.wordpress.com) is not about the results of the election. Instead, it addresses the mindset of Liberal Democrat. Consider what it indicates about just how far Liberal Democrats were willing to go to win.
He Will Be “My President” (therecoveringlegalist.com) takes a trip down memory lane. Now they are demanding that Conservatives gracefully accept their choice, but how did Liberal Democrats react when they lost the 2016 election?
Read Romans 13:1-7. For our own sakes and the sake of our children we need to use every legal means to stop Joe Biden from becoming president. That is because once he becomes president we will be stuck with him, and he is corrupt. My Initial Thoughts On the 2020 Election Results (herecoveringlegalist.com), an earlier post provides a commentary on how we got into this mess.
We Need a Miracle (writesideoftheroad.wordpress.com) tells us how Lisa V, the author, finds solace in prayer. If Biden becomes president, she will accept Biden as her president, but she prays for a miracle.
Why the Electoral College STILL matters (melwild.wordpress.com) justifies the Electoral College, something Liberal Democrats hate. Of course, if we allow Liberal Democrats to pull votes out of thin air, the Electoral College won’t make much difference.
ARE THE INSURGENTS PLANNING TO BRING IN FOREIGN TROOPS? (nightwind777.blogspot.com) sounds a bit hysterical, I suppose. Foreign troops? What redeems the author is that he is commenting upon an editorial in The New York Times.
Closing Thought–05Nov20 (lobotero.com) considers exist polls. Don’t usually have much use for such things, but this left me wondering. How on earth could Trump have lost?
Here is a another thought for you……Trump, at 63,085,022 votes, has already amassed more votes than in 2016.
According to the early exit polls, Trump did better in 2020 with every race and gender except …. white men!
From here (lobotero.com)
The obvious conclusion is that Trump did not lose. The Democrats added fraudulent ballots to overcome Trump’s victory.
Updates from America (amatopia.wordpress.com) explains why the author does not care about the results of the election.
You might be wondering, “Alex, why aren’t you writing about the 2020 Presidential election?”
Because I don’t care. Really, it’s that simple. Maybe it’s because I’m a cynic, but I knew two things going into this:
1. There would be chicanery involved; and
2. The end result won’t matter because ultimately the President of the United States of America has little impact on my life, unless they start a war.
from here (amatopia.wordpress.com)
Alex offers a view that confuses me. God gave us three basic institutions: the family, the church, and government. We are supposed to care about our families and our churches, but we are supposed to be indifferent to government?
Christians care about government because we love our neighbors. Government has a profound effect upon all of us. Think about Alex’s qualifier, “unless they start a war”. Government operates more than just our military.
- Schools. More and more our schools have become political indoctrination centers. What Christian wants to pay for his children and his neighbor’s children to be indoctrinated into becoming a Secularist?
- Police. Politicians — the leaders we have put in charge of our police forces — are using our policemen the way the Nazis used Jews, as scapegoats. We need policemen too much to let our leaders abuse them this way.
- Retirement and Healthcare. We spend enormous sums on Social Security and Medicare. These programs pit the aged against the young who pay for them. We need to fix these programs.
- And so forth.
As Christians we should be doing our best to make our government work properly, not pretending it does not matter. And yes, Alex is pretending because he does not know what to do.
What Can We Do?
What can we do now? About what appears to be Democrats trying to steal the election? Not as much as I would like.
- We can write our congressmen and demand an investigation.
- We can send the Trump campaign money to help pay the lawyers and investigators.
- We can write letters to the editor, and we can stop using those news organs that just propagandize us.
- We can pray. We can our Lord for His help and guidance. What did we do wrong? What should we be doing?
We can contemplate the future. We can ask ourselves how we got into this mess. We can remember a fundamental truth.
The Only Thing Necessary for the Triumph of Evil is that Good Men Do Nothing.

Here is one example of a computer glitch which changed an election result.
In this case it was caught right away.
This could be a helpful website:
https://www.cisa.gov/rumorcontrol
It’s the US Government’s cyber security department’s rumor control.
Not surprisingly, this “Rumor Control” page at CISA’s elections security website appears to have been deleted. CISA is a part of our Department of Homeland Security. CISA’s Rumor Control website has been debunking many spurious election rumors for months and since the election. Many of theses false rumors have been fomented by the President and his sons on twitter.
It’s not surprising that Trump continues to purge truth anywhere he finds it within his administration, but it is still sad.
149 page opinion of Judge Amy Totenberg about the vulnerabilities of the Dominion system in Georgia.
https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/6139924/964/curling-v-raffensperger/
A portion:
The Plaintiffs’ national cybersecurity experts convincingly present evidence
that this is not a question of “might this actually ever happen?” – but “when it will
happen,” especially if further protective measures are not taken. Given the
masking nature of malware and the current systems described here, if the State
and Dominion simply stand by and say, “we have never seen it,” the future does
not bode well.
Still, this is year one for Georgia in implementation of this new BMD system
as the first state in the nation to embrace statewide implementation of this QR
barcode-based BMD system for its entire population. Electoral dysfunction –
cyber or otherwise – should not be desired as a mode of proof. It may well land
unfortunately on the State’s doorstep. The Court certainly hopes not.
The Court recognizes the major challenges facing the Secretary of State’s
Office in rapidly implementing a new statewide voting system. Yet the vital issues
identified in this case will not disappear or be appropriately addressed without
focused State attention, resources, ongoing serious evaluation by independent
cybersecurity experts, and open-mindedness. The Secretary of State and Dominion
are obviously not without resources to tackle these issues. And at very least, the
Court cannot fathom why, post-election, the State and Dominion would not at least
be moving toward consideration of the software upgrade option Dominion
The opinion is a month old.
All I’m saying Liz is that, if you have some rumor of a possible problem with the Nov. 3 presidential election that is significant enough to change the results, then go to the CISA website to see if it was debunked by our own Department of Homeland Security’s election cyber warriors.
No one is saying that election cyber security is static or ever perfect, any more than any element of national security is static.
The JOINT STATEMENT FROM ELECTIONS INFRASTRUCTURE GOVERNMENT COORDINATING COUNCIL & THE ELECTION INFRASTRUCTURE SECTOR COORDINATING EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES which includes CISA starts with:
“The November 3rd election was the most secure in American history.”
Find the rest of the statement here:
https://www.cisa.gov/news/2020/11/12/joint-statement-elections-infrastructure-government-coordinating-council-election
Here is another important quote from the Joint Statement:
“There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised.“
Yet in the above court document, those documented problems were not resolved.
Part of the process of checks and balances, according to the CISA in that link is to hand count and compare. This has not been done in Georgia yet…it’s just starting now. Yet the population is being told we are “delusional” for wanting or expecting this.
The problems with PA are different, but also require investigation.
How about this bit:
“When states have close elections, many will recount ballots. All of the states with close results in the 2020 presidential race have paper records of each vote, allowing the ability to go back and count each ballot if necessary. This is an added benefit for security and resilience. This process allows for the identification and correction of any mistakes or errors.
Since we live on two planets right now (with most of you living on a very small one and the larger part of the metropolitan population and the free world living in the other one), I see two possibilities:
1. Eventually after all the spurious Republican law suits play out without showing any real voter fraud (just a few odd Republican and Democratic instances) substantive enough to change the results, after the states certify the election (some with recounts that swing things by an ineffectual few hundred votes), after the electoral college meets to declare a Biden victory, Trump will grudgingly step down, but he will not concede, continuing to claim he won when he didn’t. Trump will take the millions in pac money he is getting from his supporters for his legal fund to pay down his debts, support his lavish lifestyle and try to build his own fake news empire because fake reality is all he has ever actually made money at or been good at.
Trump’s ahistorical graceless behavior will ensure that we remain a deeply divided nation where a fervent minority of us lives in their own faux news bunker and they will refuse to accept even the legitimacy of a Biden presidency.
Unless this problem of living in a separate news universes is resolved, our democratic institutions will slowly break down. This will come to a head eventually, and the destruction of our fragile democracy that follows won’t turn out the way either side expects.
2. Trump will try to stage a coup. There are signs that Trump is feeling his way toward this goal. He has already replaced some key civilian military leadership positions, but he will also need to replace much of the joint chiefs, including the chairman, and install more unqualified political lackeys. He will also, I believe, soon replace the heads of the FBI and the CIA, as well as other key positions with loyalists. In addition, Trump will need to take certain moves certainly need to figure out a way to secure nuclear weapons on his side.
These are all legal moves at this point, but there is simply no rational reason for an outgoing administration to make such purging moves that hurt our national security continuity unless Trump is feeling out a possible coup d’tat possibility.
If this happens, I honestly doubt that most of the military officers, or rank and file FBI agents, CIA Officers, State Department official,, you know, the Deep State which is actually just The State, will go along with it. However, enough will go along with it so that we will have a small Civil War which will, I believe, quickly be put down, with much loss of life, recrimination and fraught criminal proceedings.
Because any Civil War (including our last one) results in repression of Civil Rights on both sides, we will have a more authoritarian government in the interim and probably afterwards, no matter who were to win.
On the other hand, if the coup were to succeed, such a total collapse of our governmental institutions will bring about war lords and chaos as actual strongman leaders try to fill the power vacuum. (Think French Revolution rather than. American Revolution). In order for Trump (or an actual “strong” man rather than just a guy who played one on tv) to win (in fact, it’s the only way he could win), he will have to use nuclear weapons on at least one city in order to pacify and to put down the inevitable counterrevolutions that will happen in all the major metropolitan areas.
Foreign powers, but especially our adversaries, will see opportunities in this collapse and will try to get involved. Another World War most likely will follow.
So think this through you supposedly “religious” leaders. If you persist in this, in my opinion, very unChristlike madness, one way or another, you will end up like the dog who actually catches the bus.
With far more than half the country thinking that you are completely nuts, how do you think this ends up if you persist? A righteous victory out of the ashes of unimaginable destruction and the death and destruction of so many that you love? Not likely. But it’s not too late.
You can quit this madness. Return to supporting our institutions. If you don’t trust the mainstream media, at least find one who will give you solid, evidence based facts, rather than trumped foreign disinformation, innuendo and wild conspiracy theories about demonic Democrats, mysteriously and conveniently discovered last minute laptops, fantastically massive voter fraud and other conspiracy theories. Accept defeat gracefully in a way that supports and reforms the institutions we depend upon. Make incremental change within our contentious, but institutionally loyal two party democracy.
Otherwise, this won’t turn out the way you think it will if you keep swallowing whole your own propaganda and swirling around in your own blogosphere toilet bowl. It certainly won’t turn out the way any true follower of Christ would want.
Start with virtue and love, and the right path will follow. I see no virtuousness in this path for anyone involved.
He has already replaced some key civilian military leadership positions, but he will also need to replace much of the joint chiefs, including the chairman, and install more unqualified political lackeys.
Until now, Trump is the only president since at least Clinton was elected to hire based on merit rather than loyalty politics. Obama’s last Secretary of Defense, Ash Carter, didn’t even bother to meet with the joint chiefs until six long months after taking office. Biden now has his own loyalist train wreck lined up for this position (think tank Harvard grad).
I’ll add that the real irony here is if the left hadn’t been screaming “Russia Russia Russia” (because of course Trump only got elected to have that hotel in his name in Russia) and conducting surveillance in an attempt to prosecute administration officials none of it would have hit the light of day. Probably a good 80 percent of the folks who now believe in the “deep state” had a great deal of confidence in our FBI, CIA, DNI before. The Flynn case illuminated much, the Ukrainian case even more.
@Liz
@tsalmon
It is hard to take. Four years of accusations and obstruction. No proof Trump did anything wrong. No evidence Trump deprived any Americans of their rights. No new wars. Growing economy. Peace breaking out in the Middle East of all places. Yet the accusations continue.
Tyrants do need their enemy of the people.
Tsalmon, if you are all about love, love, love; why have you tied yourself to people who hate, hate, hate?
Tom,
Everything factual that I claimed is true whereas everything you just said is verifiably a fabrication:
1. Rights – children have been purposefully separated from their parents at the border (over 500 perhaps permanently are wards of our government). These and many other “rights” cases have been lost by a Trump at court which explains why Trump has not “deprived” more people of rights than he has. You may not agree that these rights should be afforded at law, but at this point, by legal definition, they are “rights”..
2. No new wars. This depends upon how you define “war”. We have not had an officially declared war since WWII, but new and old confrontations and skirmish’s continue around the world. I’m not necessarily blaming or praising Trump for any particular aggression – just pointing out a fact that military aggressions, old and new, are happening. Finally, were at war with COVID-19, a war we are losing.
3. Economy. Seriously, our economy is in shambles. We are probably in recession, at the very least. Trump inherited a record expansion and he’s turning over an increasing mess. We had record deficits even before the Pandemic and record wealth disparity. Blame the Pandemic all you want, but all this happened on Trump’s watch and he only made it worse.
4. Peace breaking out in the Middle East? You really do live in your own fantasy. We assassinated one of Iran’s military leaders, and they hit one of our bases back. Hezbollah rocket attacks from the occupied territories happened just recently. Again nothing changed, no tensions have lessoned. Like N. Korea, Trump just legitimized a terrible status quo.
If you go to this (probably Russia organized) rally, please be careful bro, but I’d still like to know what you actually hope to achieve that is helpful to the country by it.
@tsalmon
The amazing thing is that you believe all that nonsense.
1. The children crossing the border were being used. By their parents? Who knows? You don’t care.
2. No new wars? Yep!
3. You are blaming COVID-19 on Trump. That’s pathetic!
4. Nations are signing treaties with Israel. That helps to isolate Iran. Looks it up. Except in the mainstream BS, it has not been a secret.
“1. The children crossing the border were being used. By their parents? Who knows? You don’t care.”
A court of law didn’t believe that nonsense, but you do. That’s what is pathetic.
“2. No new wars? Yep!“
Nobody got killed in Africa? I guess Trump sure tried to make their families feel that way.
“3. You are blaming COVID-19 on Trump. That’s pathetic!“
I’m not blaming Trump for being a germ (although he sure has infested the White House). I’m blaming him for his third world response to it. In fact, he has become the Johnny Appleseed of Covid, Lord help us. Again that’s what’s pathetic bro.
“4. Nations are signing treaties with Israel. That helps to isolate Iran. Looks it up. Except in the mainstream BS, it has not been a secret.”
UAE and Bahrain? Been there! We occupy those countries for their own protection. Tell me Iran signed a peace treaty – that’s where the Palestinians get their missiles.
Again, what is your purpose Tom? Overturn the election? Delegitimize a lawfully elected president? Civil War? How does this help the country? You Christian in a strange way brother.
@tsalmon
I am going to a Million MAGA Rally. You want to myopically find fault I can’t stop you. I cannot prove anybody but Jesus is perfect. Probably can’t even do that because I am not good enough.
You won’t ever compare Trump with the alternative. That is what an election is about, but comparing Trump with Biden isn’t your bag. The news media praises Biden by endlessly castigating Trump, and you are their monkey. What you see, you do.
Liz,
Can you see how that is just a non sequitur? Biden can line up the punditry of MSNBC and the NYT for his cabinet if he wants (but good luck getting them confirmed). But what good strategic purpose does it serve for Trump right now to purge top departmental positions and put in extreme political hacks right now? None. Zip. Nil.
Trump and his key people know he’s lost institutionally, and there is very little he can do about even if he actually believes he’s been robbed. Right now you are talking about a Biden electoral lead from tens, if not hundreds of thousands of votes in numerous key states, including two Republican states, and a few other mixed party administration states as well. Even if Trump could somehow turn over the votes in one or two states, there simply is no institutional path to victory for Trump. You also are talking about a five million person vote lead in the popular vote, and growing.
One has to believe in a secret, vast voter fraud conspiracy that is so big as to give whole new meaning to the terms “kooky” and “crackpot” to believe Biden did not actually win. The Dems have simply never been organized enough to be that diabolically amazing at anything. They are already infighting even though they won. It’s just nuts.
Even if I give Trump the benefit of the doubt and decide he isn’t even planning anything stupid and nefarious, this acting like a spoiled child and claiming that everyone cheated just because he lost is not only embarrassing us in the eyes of the world, it’s exceedingly damaging to democracy and to our Republic.
Don’t just deflect with angry whataboutisms one off anecdotes and wild allegations – give me some logical and moral argument for how this help our nation, cause I don’t see anything good coming from what Trump is doing, unless further dividing nation with two different realities of truth and facts is a good thing.

Legitimacy in our election process. If not this time, we need to set it right so this won’t happen again.
Standardization. A way to conclude an election quickly and cleanly. This election was a mess, and this was foreseen.
This was written just last month:
https://www.governing.com/security/Georgias-Electronic-Voting-System-Vulnerable-to-Attacks.html
Experts told the federal judge in Atlanta–that designing malware to alter vote totals from the optical scanners via flash drives would be simple. They knew this going in. And that’s just one state.
For four years the left has been claiming Trump is Hitler. If I earnestly believed the public was about to elect Hitler for the second time, I would feel a moral obligation to do whatever I could to prevent it. Even extra-legally. Because heh, we’re talking about Hitler. It’s the one thing the left was entirely unified on.
So either they were earnest…in which case at least some attempt to ensure “Hitler” didn’t win was a moral obligation. Or they have just been spouting and demonizing half the population as a bunch of neo-Nazis for “fun and profit”?
Side note about the “change of the guard”: The only reason I can think of is to get the ball really rolling for troop removal in Afghanistan. True, this can’t happen in the next two months but it might set the standard. We have sons now taking on the tours of their fathers before them, I for one would be happy if we left.
@tsalmon
If Trump’s investigation into election fraud ends up being successful, then it will become evident that the effort Democrats launched to conduct election fraud was not much of a secret. The mainstream news media has just ignored it, or worse, covered it up.
Really, what we are seeing looks like an effort by a large segment of the elites who want to run this country unimpeded to determine the outcome. If they succeed, these elites will end up cutting their own throats. Without constitutional checks, eventually no one will be safe. Arrogance leads people to do the most foolish things.
Everything Trump is doing only spreads disinformation that delegitimizes the election process. Still no logic here.
@tsalmon
Funny how you accuse Trump of all these bad things without evidence, but then ignore any evidence against Clinton or Biden. You just steer every discussion from election fraud to a discussion on how bad Trump supposedly is. You cannot defend your side, and you don’t even try.
Tom,
Sorry, what evidence? Tabloid magazine articles?
Have you proved the moon landings didn’t actually happen too? Sometimes you would be hilarious if you weren’t serious.
@tsalmon
Fine, then we have nothing to debate. Just remember this you accuse me of being patronizing. I have been putting up with this sort of patronizing BS from the start.
“If Trump’s investigation into election fraud ends up being successful, then it will become evident that the effort Democrats launched to conduct election fraud was not much of a secret. The mainstream news media has just ignored it, or worse, covered it up.“
That diabolically ingenious mainstream media . . . Booowahahaha! You really need to stop smoking whatever you are smoking.
All of Trump’s “cases” (they don’t even merit the term) have been laughed out of court. I watched one judge on court video today explain to a Republican lawyer the actual first year law school definition of “hearsay” evidence (“an out of court statement used to prove the truth of the matter asserted” – 20 years since I practiced and I can still recite that off the top of my head). It was embarrassing! If these were not political cases, the pleading lawyers would be sanctioned. It’s sad, but you believe what your news bunker tells you. That’s even sadder. Wake up from your fantasy dreams folks!
@tsalmon
Shrug! Appreciate your objective opinion.
“Fine, then we have nothing to debate. Just remember this you accuse me of being patronizing. I have been putting up with this sort of patronizing BS from the start.”
Touché! Perhaps the whole country needs to turn it down about 100 notches.

Liz,
Look it up. I believe that this one was debunked by Trump’s own HSD cyber security guy.
Look it up. I believe that this one was debunked by Trump’s own HSD cyber security guy.
I couldn’t find what you are referring to.
Stuxnet destroyed Iranian centrifuges after being introduced to the network via USB flash drives. The above article (not a Trump friendly one) documents numerous experts from “good governance” groups saying the opposite. Just two or so weeks ago (before the vote).
Where true or no I see no disadvantage to a hand count.
What is the disadvantage?
All of Trump’s “cases” (they don’t even merit the term) have been laughed out of court.
All of them? That’s interesting. I find it a little hard to believe. Friend of mine knows one of the lawyers working on the case. After she was doxxed she has need 24 hour security protection (lots of death threats, somehow they got her personal cell number). They’re definitely making her life hell. That’s a lot to go through if ALL of the cases are simply laughed off.
The former federal prosecutor explains the Pennsylvania case thusly:
Everyone — please understand the function of a “complaint” in a civil lawsuit. It is a “Notice” document. It is a starting point. Parties do not include all their “evidence” in a Complaint. A properly pled complaint is the vehicle to being able to conduct discovery.
The discovery process — receiving documents and taking depositions — is where the evidence which you believe supports your claims will be uncovered.
The new Penn. case is a good example.
The Trump campaign is seeking federal court authorization to gather evidence …from the Secretary of the Commonwealth and the County Boards of Elections about the fraud that was perpetrated. The evidence is in the possession of those entities. The Trump campaign cannot publicize that which they do not yet have.
Nonsense Liz. Obama’s first Secretary was Bush’s last.
@tsalmon
All that and not one fact to support it.
You do realize Conservatives don’t riot? We respect other people’s lives and property. We also don’t stage coups. Not Biblical.
There will be a Trump rally in DC on Saturday. If I can find enough information on it (Big Tech is a Big Pain.), I will go to it.
Don’t worry, I will leave my bags full of human feces and urine at home. I won’t have any bricks or homemade armor. I will just be going to listen to speeches and show support. Hopefully, the DC police will keep Democrat crazies away, but the Democrat mayor of DC cannot be trusted. So, I will have verify whoever is organizing this thing has enough sense to realize that. I am to old either to run or to fight fanatics with metal baseball bats.
Thank for repeating the mainstream media’s propaganda. I count on you to keep me informed.
Thanks for the ping back Tom and great information here. I too read the first article and it is spot on. Even if the scales were not tipped in Biden’s favor due to voter fraud (a big IF), there are just way too many red flags to ignore. And yes, at least half the country now has no faith in the electoral process which is not at all good.
I’m very glad right now that the courts don’t decide on what should continue or be investigated based on MSM Newspeak or even popular opinion. Haven’t we already seen that the MSM has been wrong about just about everything before this? I thank God we still have a working Constitution. EVERY American should want the truth to come out, regardless of party affiliation, for the sake of the soul of our country. Otherwise, this is just a very hollow victory for Biden and a very disturbing trajectory for our nation.
@Mel Wild
Agreed! We cannot say for certain at this point that Democrats stole the election, but the likelihood is to high to ignore the possibility.
Reblogged this on Faithful Steward Ministries and FSM Women's Outreach and commented:
From a friend in VA. Please excuse the language in the first article. The questions though are legit and concerning. If for know other reason to demonstrate the Great Divide (not Continental) this Nation has.
170 years after Sam Houston stood on the Senate floor and uttered these words “A house divided against itself cannot stand” we have learned nothing. He of course was speaking on the subject of slavery and less than a dozen years later the bloodiest war in American history began, the War Between the States.
Thanks for the link.
“The obvious conclusion is that Trump did not lose. The Democrats added fraudulent ballots to overcome Trump’s victory.”
Projection from exit polls comes with difficulties and needs to be done with care. Here you seem to assume, that the exit polls are representative for the composition of the by-mail ballots. I do not think this is a valid assumption, as it is my understanding that way more registered Democrats than registered Republicans voted by mail. You will know better than me where to find that data. At the moment, I do not see your conclusion as an obvious one.
@marmoewp
I agree the polls are not what they use to be.
I only read the first article so far, which is brilliant.
We gave to the Trump defense fund today. Candidly, from my perspective, if conservatives keep the Senate I’m less concerned. I just want a legitimate candidate (and I’m very suspect of several states).
What concerns me more is something called the “Trump accountability project” which promises to punish Trump as well as his staff and supporters.
It would seem they want 70+ million people to see them as an existential threat.

Just got a notice about five minutes ago a private facebook group I participate in is getting shut down.
Perhaps we’ll need to start talking in code.
Something innocuous like….pizza and beanie babies.
@Liz
The song, “The Twelve Days of Christmas”, originated that way.
https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/resources/advent/customs-and-traditions/the-history-of-the-twelve-days-of-christmas
I did not know that! Very interesting. You’re right. Nothing new under the sun.
I always wondered what the meaning of that song (12 days of Christmas) was.
I’m inspired!
I’ll give this code thing a try…
Those who give up essential pizza for a little temporary beanie baby…deserve neither
(I’d insert a laughing emoji but it doesn’t feel right at the moment)
@Liz
I want to cry too.
@Liz
This is why we have to fight them. They won’t allow us to exist. Given the power, they will “purge” us. Nothing new about this. Old as history.
@Liz
Will we survive if we lose. God takes care of those who love Him, but He also expects us to stand against evil.
Biden will undo much of what Trump did by restoring all the regulations Trump got rid of. That will wreck havoc on the economy, and Liberal Democrats will blame Trump and his supporters, of course. Biden will turn our foreign policy will turn into a fresh cow pie, and they will blame Trump and his supporters, of course. We will become the enemy. To some extent, we already have.
The news media will double down on its propaganda, and Big Tech will increase its censorship. Government will discriminate against private, religious schools and any competitors against the Liberal Democrat supporters, Amazon, Google, Facebook, Apple, Microsoft, and so forth. They will us any means to force us to conform or squeeze us out into starvation.
@Liz
Of course, you know what Biden will do to immigration policy. They want to turn the entire country into bankrupt California. If in order to run it they have to turn our country into Hell, that is what they will do.
I read that top post by the accountant turned author and like you, the spin on the four letter word didn’t set well in my soul— BUT the truth behind all of those little red flags did!!!!
Yet here’s the thing Tom— folks like you and me , civil minded, conservative Christians aren’t like the ‘no justice, no peace crowd’— we don’t march, smash, loot, steal and go on a public tirade when things don’t turn out in our favor— or in this case, from a blatant legal angle!!!
My cousin called Lindsey Graham’s office today, his voicemail was full, but wants those who Trump supported all this time to now step up but I told her that when elected officials, especially newly re-elected officials, smell a hint of defeat in the air— they seem to suddenly go deathly quiet.
I know God will honor those of us who continue to honor His chosen as well as for the honoring of the right to life for the unborn—
As President Trump did very publicly—
We must trust God and continue to fight His good fight!!!!!!
Thanks for the Ping Back! Keeping the faith.
