2020 Presidential Election

This should not have taken five years. From NBC, Michigan ‘fake electors’ will not face a criminal trial, judge rules. NBC quotes state district judge Kristen Simmons, Simmons said the so-called “fake electors” were trying to seek redress after Trump’s 2020 election loss and attempted to perform their civic duties. The prosecutors who brought this case — including the state attorney general — should be disbarred. MLive reports on the

Fifty-one former intelligence officials signed off on the letter or public statement denouncing the Hunter Biden laptop emails as Russian disinformation. Natasha Bertrand, then of Politico, served as the intermediary between the Biden campaign, which had commissioned the statement, and the intelligence officials, who did the Biden campaign’s bidding, for her October19, 2020 report “Hunter Biden story is Russian disinfo, dozens of former intel officials say.” They sought to cast

The 2020 election remains controversial. I wrote here that there is compelling evidence of several million illegal votes being cast in that election–several million more, that is, than in 2016 or 2024. And we know there was plenty of funny business, beginning with the media boycott of devastating evidence of Joe Biden’s corruption, leading up to the election. These issues certainly should be debated, and election integrity is an important

Two years ago I wrote about Mike Lindell’s Prove Mike Wrong Challenge in “Mike Lindell proves himself a fool.” The MyPillow CEO held an August 2021 “cyber symposium” in Sioux Falls to provide a forum for his claims of fraud in the 2020 election. He convened the symposium under the auspices of Lindell Management LLC, which I will refer to in this post as Lindell. The event took place over

Today is the official publication date of the new book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson on the cover-up of President Biden’s cognitive decline from those (like Tapper) who couldn’t or wouldn’t see what was in front of their nose. The Free Beacon’s Andrew Stiles has now arrived on the scene with “The Tapper Dossier: How the CNN ‘Journalist’ Covered (Up) the Biden Cover-Up—Before Writing a Best-Selling Book About It.”

Yesterday I came across Megyn Kelly’s video of her full one-hour interview with Frontline for “Trump’s Comeback” (broadcast January 21 and accessible at the link). Frontline has also posted background on the episode here. Amid the voluminous listed credits I wondered who wrote the show. Was it “reporters” Vanessa Fica and Brooke Nelson Alexander? No! The credits attribute the writing to producers Michael Kirk and Mike Wiser. Megyn Kelly, by

There is no doubt that improprieties impacted the 2020 presidential election. Suppression of free speech by social media platforms, Zuckbucks, and above all the concealment of definitive evidence of Joe Biden’s corruption by the Dirty 51 and the press, very likely swung the election to Biden. But how about outright voter fraud? We will never know how extensive the fraud was, since the essence of a successful fraud is that

I recently came to the defense of former Attorney General Bill Barr in “They comfort me.” My post specifically addressed comments made by Lloyd Billingsley in “Thy Rod and thy staff” and pointed out Lloyd’s misleading quotation from Barr’s excellent memoir. A reader who shall go unnamed wrote me an email in response to my defense of Barr: “When you try to discredit Trump about the integrity of the 2020

I have four propositions with which many readers disagree. First, William Barr was an outstanding Attorney General of the United States in the first Trump administration. Second, if it weren’t for Barr, the Mueller investigation would still be going strong persecuting innocent citizens. We would be entertaining proposals to convert it into a permanent commission. Third, I agree entirely with Barr’s critique of President Trump’s endgame on January 6. I

Democratic Senator Ron Wyden of Oregon has introduced legislation to, as he says, “reform” the Supreme Court, and the federal courts in general. The bill is titled the “Judicial Modernization and Transparency Act.” Democrats have been threatening to pack the Supreme Court for a while, but that is not this bill. Wyden’s bill expands the Court to 15 justices, but not all at once: the next six will be appointed

Yesterday I compiled the New York Post’s coverage of the Zuckerberg letter. In my post I focused on Facebook’s suppression of the New York Post’s coverage of Hunter Biden’s laptop in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election. Speaking for myself, I quoted Zuckerberg’s statement that Facebook sent “the Post story to fact-checkers for review[.]” I commented that every element of the Post’s coverage was accurate and authenticated. I added

Mark Zuckerberg’s letter to Chairman Jim Jordan and the House Judiciary Committee on Facebook’s censorhip in cooperation with government authorities is a document of multifaceted interest. It warrants close examination. Indeed, close reading is required. See the text of the letter below. Mark Zuckerberg just admitted three things: 1. Biden-Harris Admin "pressured" Facebook to censor Americans. 2. Facebook censored Americans. 3. Facebook throttled the Hunter Biden laptop story. Big win

The New York Post is the newspaper of record on matters related to the laptop from hell. Then candidate Biden needed a talking point to dismiss the Post’s meticulous reporting on the Biden family business as revealed in the laptop in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election. Biden arranged through Tony Blinken and Michael Morrell to procure a public statement or open letter signed by 51 former intelligence officials,

New York Post columnist Miranda Devine recalls in her June 12 New York Post column: The last time Joe Biden met Donald Trump on a debate stage, he lied that his son Hunter’s laptop was Russian disinformation, “a Russian plant” and “a bunch of garbage.” Taking account of the evidence introduced in the Hunter Biden gun case, Devine itemizes the ways in which Biden’s laptop has been authenticated. Not a

We closely covered the New York Post stories on Hunter Biden’s laptop from hell in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election. Anyone who took a close look at the story could see a self-authenticating element in it and, indeed, every piece of additional reporting that followed up on the Post’s reporting corroborated it. With a little help from the Deep State 51, the laptop was dismissed as Russian disinformation,

Hunter Biden’s laptop presents as a case study of the cooperation among the mainstream media — I would give pride of place to Natasha Bertrand and Politico, but they had a lot of company — the Democratic Party, and the deep state in the service of Our Democracy™, or Their Democracy. This week the Biden Department of Justice vouched for the authenticity of the laptop in its prosecution of Chairman

Now an Arizona grand jury has handed up a 2020 election-related indictment procured by Arizona’s Democratic attorney general. The indictment includes charges against Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, and others in connection with the scheme Trump was pursuing in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election. Trump is named an unindicted co-conspirator. The indictment is posted online here. Politico’s story on the indictment deciphers the names redacted from the indictment at
