The story is relevant to lame duck activity because 1) there’s a potential Special Counsel appointment, and 2) the difference in media coverage / high tech suppression of the story will demonstrate that the media and the tech companies actively interfered in an election. Furthermore, it looks like the media will basically take a nap for a few years as it takes PR / damage control narratives from the DNC.
[quote quote=4010]\I’m not sure what Hunter Biden has to do with this, but it is not surprising that his name gets dropped in a response to a thread about Trump. Can’t let an opportunity go by without mentioning Hunter Biden. [/quote]
Hunter Biden is accused of selling access and influence. Why is he relevant? Because he is accused of selling access to, and the influence of… Joe Biden. Not just selling access and influence, but selling access and influence to China, and committing actual interference with the Ukrainian justice system. There is evidence for this, and it was suppressed by the media and Big Tech.

I expect he will continue to work until the end. The media will make is seem like he’s doing all sorts of dirty deeds. I don’t think he’ll order the continued investigation of a political rival’s campaign. The political rival’s son, maybe, but not the political rival’s campaign.
When we elected Gavin Newsom, I told people why do we want to make the entire state San Francisco? If you get rid of the Electoral College, you can ask, “why do you want to make the whole country San Francisco (or New York City, or Los Angeles)?”
Oh, and there’s this:
This is making me a populist. Payments to people and small businesses (less than $2M annual revenue, willing to go a little higher), not luxury brands and restaurants.
Our media has lost the plot in terms of covering justice issues. It’s all partisan now. Bill Barr was the consummate professional. There is more evidence of a conspiracy to push the Russian Collusion narrative (created by the Clinton campaign and laundered through a willing media and the Deep State) than there is that Russian Collusion happened. It’s sad what the politicized media and the politicized bureaucracy can do to pull the wool over the eyes of the American people.
Remember the 50+ “intelligence professionals” who told you that the Hunter Biden story had “all the hallmarks of Russian disinformation” as soon as the Democratic party set the narrative and all the reporters (and Big Tech) suppressed the story? I’m glad those “intelligence professionals” are not in the business of analyzing intelligence anymore, as they have shown that they would rather put politics over country. F— them, and f— our media, who have become editorializing propaganda flacks for the Democratic Party, rather than even attempting to tell the truth to the American people.

Liars, the whole lot of them.
Nice to see @politico catching up to the Hunter Biden scandal that they wrote off back in October.
A little too on the nose to use the same picture though, don’t you think? pic.twitter.com/AJnfSkFn6F

Facebook’s Andy Stone (former DNC staffer), Twitter, and Google all suppressed a story to favor Democrats. These are the same people complaining about money buying policy. Now they’re suppressing any claims of election fraud. Big Tech decided to join the enemy of the people with gusto. You wonder why right-leaning populism is in vogue? Silicon Valley and the main-stream media deciding that everything is political, and to become propaganda wings is the answer.

SFGate covered the story with a summary. Unclear when other networks will begin covering this story. The media is so politicized that they cannot be relied upon to report news.
If you liked to say that Trump won in 2016 by only 77,736 votes in three crucial states (PA MI WI), then consider that Biden won in 2020 by even less — 43,809 votes — in three crucial states (AZ GA WI). From Michael Barone: https://t.co/X9VzG46Kym

I don’t know what the outcome of these election challenges will be. I analogize it to trying to overturn a jury verdict… really difficult because the standards of review are against you, and all presumptions are in favor of the verdict.
Last week, the “evidence” looked weak. Then the hearings began, and it started to look stronger. Then the Atlanta / Fulton County video hit (apparently obtained at 1AM today, therefore the legislator who claimed it had already been “debunked” was shut down really quickly), and that’s pretty shady. I DO remember that shortly after election night, someone claimed to be delivering something near the arena, and took pictures of suitcases being rolled into one of the vote counting places.
As I posted before, what I would really like to happen out of this election is a return to election security (yes, including voter ID), and the death of unproven, speculative “voter suppression” arguments as an excuse to prevent common sense measures to ensure secure elections.

All joking aside, it’s almost Christmas.
Possibly. The Internet makes it easy for people to be jerks / a–holes, including acting out in real life, thinking the relative anonymity of the Internet translates into real life. Of course, the second anyone does anything remotely controversial nowadays, they run to the “I’m being threatened” card. Yes, some of the threats are very real and should be taken seriously, but at this point, ascribing blame for threats is really tricky and difficult to prove.
This is exactly why you have ballots that only have voting for Joe Biden & no one down ticket.
It is very rare for presidential campaigns to look at ballots for irregularities. But local campaigns do. If they were to see this type of fraud, ballots would get challenged.

The Deep State is real. Just for the record, I’ve said before, and I’ll say it again, the Iran Deal was a test of Democratic control of the media that the American people (and the media) failed. If we re-enter the Iran deal, that will be a huge foreign policy misstep of epic proportions. They’re going to cheat anyways. We shouldn’t give them money to cheat and continue their terrorism across the Middle East.
*shrug* Big Tech decided they wanted to follow the mainstream media into trying to tell people what to believe. As a result, they’ve lost credibility just like the major news organizations have All this “disputed,” “suspension,” “fact-checking” stuff goes one way, and as a result, lacks credibility. They’ve made their bed, they’re going to have to live with the possible consequences. Of course, those who benefit just won a top-line election, but if they keep it up, those who are most affected may win the legislative branch, and then there will be h— to pay.
There’s a reason why populism is making a comeback. The arrogance of the media, big tech, and the “elites,” has become too much. Top down management of all aspects of people’s lives, WHILE jobs are being lost, businesses are going under, and in general people’s lives are becoming less free is having a tangible effect. Say what you will about Trump, he really did deliver on the economy and making people feel more free (unless you bought into the media’s “fascism” garbage).

Real household income rose, not just for the wealthy, but for EVERYBODY under Trump. Minority wages rose across the board. Employment numbers for the poorest, minorities, women, etc., reached unprecedented levels.
Whine all you want about the Trump tax cuts, but they provided real tax relief to the poorest and middle class (the nature of a progressive tax system means you CANNOT cut taxes without benefiting the people in the top income brackets on some level). You wonder what the Trump appeal was? Talk to the non-political classes.
There’s some interesting stuff going on all over the country.
Continued statistical analysis shows wild numbers of people who voted ONLY for Joe Biden and didn’t vote further down the ticket:
Pennsylvania — 98,000
Georgia — 80-90,000
Arizona — 42,000
Michigan — 69- 115,000
Wisconsin — 62,836I have people going through all the anomalies. pic.twitter.com/nb0EhIGkq3

We need comprehensive election reform. Early voting is fine. Counting super late ballots, universal mail ballots, ballot harvesting, no signature / ID matching, etc. need to go. I’ve heard proposals for blockchain solutions and third / neutral party counting / auditing solutions, as well. If you think it can’t be done on a bipartisan basis, look at Florida post-2000. There was an attempt to steal the Senate seat (and the Governor’s seat) in 2018, but a concerted Republican effort forced the corrupt Broward County election officials to stop some really sketchy (and illegal under Florida law) practices, saving the seat.
