Daily Broadside | Get Ready for One Party Rule

You know you’re being disenfranchised, right?

Tucker’s four points:

  1. There are at least 22 million illegals in the U.S.
  2. Democrats are calling for the legalization of all illegals (at least 22 million new voters)
  3. The overwhelming majority of first time immigrant voters vote Democrat
  4. The greatest margin of victory in a presidential election was 17 million votes in 1984

This is all about a permanent electoral majority. A permanent DEMOCRAT electoral majority.

Here’s some of the conversation that Tucker had with Catherine Engelbrecht from True the Vote.

TC: There is no way to justify an [sic] economic grounds mass immigration in 2024. So once again, why is it happening? And it’s happening for political reasons. It’s happening because the Democratic Party has ceased making case for itself to Americans. And so in order to keep power, in fact, to expand their power and to preside over the one-party state that they desire, they’re going to need a brand new electorate, and this is their electorate. Foreigners will choose your leaders. You’re not allowed to choose the leaders of foreign countries, but foreigners will choose your leaders, including in this election, this 2024 presidential election.

Well, how would that work? It’s illegal, you say, for illegal aliens to vote in a federal election. Well, actually, it’s not illegal, it turns out. Congress passed something in the US Code, the federal code, a line that unbeknownst to the rest of us, makes it legal for illegal aliens to vote in federal elections if they believe they are citizens. It’s a state of mind. Did you know that? We didn’t know that. Most people didn’t know that. Katherine Angelbrecht just found this provision in the US Code. That’s the thing she reads because she’s the founder of True the Vote and has been working on these issues for a few years now. She joins us to explain what she’s found. Katherine Albrecht, thank you so much for coming on.

His point about foreigners choosing our next president—it’s insane, but it’s really the only way to look at it if there’s any truth to it. Tucker goes on to ask Catherine to explain.

TC: Would you mind explaining what seems at first blush a very far-fetched idea that the US Code, as of right now, as of our speaking, would allow illegal aliens to vote in the upcoming presidential election? How would that work?

CE: Yeah. Well, True the Vote The organization I founded some years ago has been long involved in looking at the accuracy of the voter rolls, and we’ve long maintained that inaccurate voter rolls lead to inaccurate elections. With that as a backdrop, we’ve been very concerned about the lack of availability to determine citizenship status, not just by groups like ours, but by states themselves. They can’t get close enough to a citizenship status database to make good determinations. That then led me to look a little deeper, because as you rightly lay out, there’s a motivation here. So what might that be? We’ve seen many, many videos of people coming across the border who are talking about their excitement about voting for Joe Biden and claiming that they are citizens. But yet we hear debates in Congress where the congressmen will say, Don’t worry, the non-citizens can’t vote. It’s a crime of perjury. It’s a felony. So okay, we took a deep look at the criminal code, and Title 18 left us just gobsmacked. Because when you read all the way through it as it lists all of the stipulations against non-citizen voting in federal elections and lays out the Penalties, Therefore, scroll all the way down to the fine print.

What you read is that non-citizens can vote without penalty if at the time they are voting, they believe themselves to be US citizens.

Our UniParty politicians wrote into law that if someone merely thinks themselves a citizen, they won’t be punished for voting in an election in which they have no legal right to vote.

TC: Is there any question that the overwhelming majority of illegal aliens are going to vote Democrat when they vote, and they will vote?

CE: Yeah, I certainly see that the NGOs and the outfits that are bringing them across the country are grooming them for that purpose. That seems to be very apparent. They are immediately given access to all manner of social service programs. Those social service programs have as a portion of the application an automatic voter registration feature. States aren’t allowed to ask for proof of citizenship upon registration. I mean, this is layer upon layer upon layer of dysfunction. Wait, wait, wait.

TC: The Biden administration is registering illegal aliens to vote when they get here?

CE: They certainly are setting up all of the place settings to do it. They are registering them for government sanction programs like Medicaid, like Affordable Care Act. They’re giving them access to food stamps, lodging, other welfare types of programs. All of those programs come with the application. A opt-out voter registration. It is not at all beyond the realm of possibility. That is, that it’s in fact, exactly what’s happening, that non-citizens are being registered. States have no ability to stop it. If you are so fortunate as to find a way to prove this caught in the act, then you refer back to Title 18 that says, That was just a state of mind. So no harm, no foul, and it will be too late.

TC: I mean, so the election already seems rigged.

Exactly. The Democrats have brought in a bought and paid for new electorate and will hand them citizenship right after they give them free food, medical care and shelter.

But the Democrats aren’t even hiding what they’re doing anymore. Right on cue:

Keep this is mind as you go to the voting booth this fall.

Make sure you vote this fall.

Have a good weekend.

Daily Broadside | GOP (Tries To) Counter Increase of Electoral Power In the States Where Invading Foreigners Are Settled

Replacing conservative Americans is what the anti-Americans who populate the Marxist Democrat Party intended all along.

The House Rules Committee will consider a proposal late Monday afternoon that would prevent illegal aliens and other foreign nationals from skewing elections by shifting the apportionment of congressional seats and electoral college votes.

The “Equal Representation Act” would modify the Census Bureau’s questionnaire for each decennial census beginning in 2030 by requiring individuals to attest to their citizenship status on the form and then using that data to exclude foreign nationals from the count used to determine congressional and electoral college apportionment. Apportionment is derived from the number of residents in a particular area but does not currently differentiate legal citizens from foreigners who, in many cases, are illegal immigrants. A state can gain or lose congressional seats and electoral college votes based on the size of its population.

The census counts bodies, not whether those bodies are here legally or not.

This means that millions of illegal aliens who have invaded the country can dilute the representation of American citizens by inflating the populations of the left-leaning areas to which they flock — even as American citizens flee those same states.

Of course, Democrats oppose any effort to keep foreigners from voting in our American elections. As soon as the meat puppet was installed, he reversed President Donald J. Trump’s July 2020 memo barring illegal aliens from being counted in the census.

If Trump is reelected, though, he’s not just writing a memo. He’s planning to deport millions of the invaders who are here illegally in the U.S.

Donald Trump’s plan to crack down on immigration includes using a range of tools to deport millions of people in the U.S. each year — from obscure laws to military funds to law enforcement officers from all levels of government.

Why it matters: History tells us such an effort would dramatically disrupt local communities and economies across the U.S. — and sow fear among the millions of people without legal status.

If “local communities and economies” will be so disrupted when we kick illegals out of them it must be that the local communities and economies have already been disrupted by that many illegals infiltrating said communities and economies, no?

You’re only telling one side of the story, Axios.

And we shouldn’t “sow fear” among the foreigners that they might be deported? In my best George Costanza voice: Is that somehow immoral? Is that a problem? Should we not do that?

No, see the problem is that illegals don’t fear any kind of consequences because Brandon and the Marxist junta in the White House not only allow them to invade, they themselves fly them in by the tens of thousands.

The media takes us for idiots.

You may not feel displaced just yet, but it’s happening. If you’re an American citizen, you’re being shoved aside in favor of a migrating band of welfare seekers who will inflate electoral power that favors Democrats while they rob and mock you to your face.

Daily Broadside | DEI—A.K.A. “DIE”—Is Going Away, But Not Really

I was in business for 25 years before being terminated in a “restructuring” last year. I was the only one in my division that was released (well, my manager was, too, but that was only because he was managing two of us and without me his role wasn’t necessary), and I found out that there was also one here and one there, many of them long time employees of the company like I was. “Restructuring,” while a legitimate business activity, is also a useful catch-all for corporate downsizing when the motivation is somewhat suspect.

While I miss some things about the business, there’s a lot I don’t miss. The emphasis on “DEI,” for instance, the acronym for “Diversity, Equity and Inclusion,” a.k.a. Diversity, Equality and Inclusion, a.k.a., Diversity and Inclusion, a.k.a., Diversity. The company had significantly increased its attention on getting more women and minorities in positions of leadership, along with supporting celebrations of sexual deviancy of all kinds, and that was all reflected regularly in communications at all times of the year—not just when it was a particular month to recognize some group in some square in the matrix of so-called disadvantaged people.

I am not at all opposed to women, blacks, hispanics, gays, lesbians and other “under-represented” peoples having gainful employment. I’m not opposed to them being in positions of leadership. Over the course of my career the majority of my managers have been women, with one or two exceptions. Many of them were high performers. Some of them were not. Two of them were LGBTQ+, one being a lesbian in a same-sex “marriage.” And I’ve had many female, black, gay and lesbian co-workers.

So it’s not “diversity” that I’m opposed to. What I am opposed to is the artificial imposition of “diversity” for the sake of diversity.

For example, I’ve seen a more qualified white male get passed over for a role in favor of a less experienced Asian female because “diversity.” DEI is clearly reverse discrimination and, while you could never prove it in court with that example, that’s what it is.

Lately, it seems like others are getting annoyed with it, too, and the current iteration of employment discrimination is having to morph into some other euphemism to avoid the legal risks that come with profiling candidates for jobs.

The demise of DEI has been in the news for a while, but outlets like Jeff Bezos’ The Washington Post (Democracy Dies in Darkness—pfffft!) has recently sat up and taken notice (hard left liberal link alert!).

Last year, Eli Lilly’s annual shareholders letter referenced the acronym for diversity, equity and inclusion 48 times. This year, “DEI” is nowhere to be found.

In March, Starbucks got shareholder approval to replace “representation” goals with “talent” performance for executive bonus incentives. At Molson Coors, “People & Planet” metrics have displaced environmental, social and governance (ESG) goals, and the acronym DEI has disappeared altogether.

Amid growing legal, social and political backlash, American businesses, industry groups and employment professionals are quietly scrubbing DEI from public view — though not necessarily abandoning its practice. As they rebrand programs and hot-button acronyms, they’re reassessing decades-old anti-discrimination strategies and rewriting policies that once emphasized race and gender to prioritize inclusion for all.

In other words, the DEI label will be retired in favor of a new term that will cloak the same activities.

“DEI has only been the acronym du jour since 2020,” Emerson said. “Regardless of what we call it, we’ve done a really poor job storytelling what this work is actually about.”

The rebranding is clearly being sparked by the “baggage” now associated with DEI, Emerson said. She pointed to conservative activist Christopher Rufo, who led the campaign to oust Harvard’s first Black president, Claudine Gay, framing her exit as “the beginning of the end for DEI in America’s institutions.”

“Companies with leaders that might be particularly supportive of DEI might also be the ones that are uniquely averse to drawing scrutiny,” Emerson said. “A lot of the companies that were vocal in the past have already been sued.”

“DEI” and all of its antecedents are part of the cultural Marxism that seeks to divide us into separate, warring groups, pitting the bourgeoisie (those who own the means of production) against the proletariat (working class), whose labor produces the goods, in a power struggle. It’s the “victims” of discrimination versus the “oppressors,” those who supposedly have an “unfair” advantage over someone who’s gay, female, black, hispanic, fat, trans, or some other characteristic that somehow puts them at a disadvantage. Men v. women. Gay v. straight. Black v. white. Fat v. fit. You get the idea.

As a man of faith, I can’t in good conscience write copy for “Pride” month celebrations or any other celebration of something that runs counter to God’s established order. DEI always posed a threat to my role, but thankfully I was never put in a position where I had to refuse an assignment (although I got close a couple of times).

It’s still a threat to my prospects, though, since most corporate roles I find list the support of “diversity, equity and inclusion” as part of the job description.

Death to DEI and anything else that favors one group over another.

Daily Broadside | General Michael Flynn (Ret.) Warns Biden Admin. to Declare National Emergency Before Elections

Honestly, I thought Obama was going to declare martial law prior to Trump being inaugurated. But Obama doesn’t want the appearance of getting his hands dirty, so he’ll just pull the strings from behind the scenes.

“We should be prepared for this administration to declare some type of national emergency. I really, really, I feel that, I know some of the things that they’re doing in the White House right now, that they’re contemplating.

[…]

“This is not politics as usual, folks. This is not about big government and little government, less taxes and more taxes. This is now about whether or not our country is going to be the United Socialist States of America, or the United States of America. And I as a former blue collar Kennedy Democrat, right? I’ll, I’ll go at it with anybody today, but we are in a really, we’re in a grave moment in time, and I want people to understand that, I really want people to understand that.”

Makes sense to me. This administration has already disregarded the rule of law and is throwing anything and everything at the opposition, especially their lawfare against Trump and the cheating they did in the 2020 election and the cheating they undoubtably have planned in 2024.

Why not devise some pretext for declaring a national emergency and suspend the presidential election? They’ve got half the country with them and judges and politicians in high places. Democrats can’t win on the issues—they can only win if they cheat. And they can only win when they cheat if the margin of victory is close enough that they can manufacture enough votes to cover the gap.

I personally don’t think we can vote our way out of this mess. Not any more. The best we can do is buy some time, but even that is tenuous. We thought we had time when Trump was president, but the cultural Marxists harassed and prosecuted him throughout his time in office, and they’re still at it because he’s a major threat to their hold on power.

Think about it: he’s not anything close to what they accuse him of being—a dictator, a Russian stooge, a white supremacist, an insurrectionist. Those all describe the current tool in the White House is. It’s all projection.

It’s time to embrace the fact that we’re being overrun by a Marxist virus that was incubated in our universities and has now infected our entire culture. In my view, the only way we will avoid becoming a socialist or communist state is by fighting our way out of it.

I don’t want to say it (again) but a new civil war—a real war, with real shooting and violence and death and destruction—appears to me to be inevitable. It may not happen this year or next, but I don’t see a way out because the Left is well-funded and persists in “flooding the zone”—a constant barrage of agitation and litigation and corruption of everything that normal Americans have held dear.

There isn’t anyone coming to save us from our enemies. It’s going to come down to those who love what America was meant to be and want to see that order restored. Otherwise it will be a hasty collapse into a surveillance state in which your freedoms are choked off, slowly but surely.

It’s already happening.

Daily Broadside | The UniParty Passes Unconstitutional Legislation Banning Speech Protected Under the First Amendment

A noble cause—outlawing antisemitism—produces one of the worst pieces of legislation ever written.

The House of Representatives passed a major antisemitism bill on Wednesday, which would crack down on antisemitism on college campuses as protests rage nationwide.

The bill, introduced by New York Republican Rep. Mike Lawler passed in a bipartisan 320-91 vote, per The Hill, and will now go to the Senate. The legislation was opposed by 21 Republicans, and 70 Democrats.

The legislation seeks to make the Department of Education adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of antisemitism when enforcing the 1964 Civil Rights Act on college campuses.

The bipartisan legislation is called the “Antisemitism Awareness Act.” But there are a lot of problems with the law as written, including the fact that the definition is not even included in legislation, but outsourced to an international body that has no legal standing to tell us what we can or cannot say. Matt Walsh makes this point in his blog post on Thursday.

In addition, the legislation just passed by the House with the majority of Republican and Democrats supporting it, says that the examples given by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance are also to be considered part of this law.

Do you know what one of the “examples” of antisemitism is given by the IHRA?

Personally, I believe that all of us, Jew and Gentile, killed Jesus, but this is insane. If I were to stand up in a church and read John 19:7, I could conceivably be arrested under this “hate speech” law.

The Jewish leaders insisted, “We have a law, and according to that law he must die, because he claimed to be the Son of God.”

I detest antisemitism, but this bill is unconstitutional on its face. It also directly attacks the First Amendment which protects all speech, including speech we find detestable.

Not only that, but what if the IHRA decides to change their definition of antisemitism? Or to add examples that target the Christian church even more directly? Worse, does the U.S. law automatically get updated with the revised definition and examples? Is it a “living and breathing” bill that can change based on the whims of people in other countries, including Israel?

We should all oppose this bill, like Thomas Massie, who posted a thread worth reading on X.

We are living in very dangerous times, my friends, because we have a bunch of morons running the country who have no understanding of the First Amendment or of the constitution they swore to protect, defend, and uphold.

Have a good weekend.

Daily Broadside | Brandon Wants to Import Palestinians Into US On Top Of the Millions of Foreigners He’s Already Forced On Us

Is there no limit to the destructive ends of this lawless “administration”?

White House considers accepting some Palestinians from Gaza as refugees amid Israel-Hamas war

People from Gaza who pass a series of eligibility, medical and security screenings would qualify to fly to the US with refugee status

The Biden administration is considering welcoming certain Palestinians to the U.S. as refugees as they seek to escape war-torn Gaza amid the ongoing war in the Middle East between Israel and Hamas.

Senior officials across several federal U.S. agencies have discussed in recent weeks the details of potential options to accept Palestinians from Gaza who have immediate family members who are American citizens or permanent U.S. residents, internal federal government documents show, according to CBS News.

One proposal involves using the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program to bring Palestinians with U.S. connections who have escaped Gaza and entered neighboring Egypt, the documents reveal.

U.S. officials have also considered welcoming additional Palestinians out of Gaza and are processing them as refugees if they have American relatives, according to the documents. This proposal would have to rely on coordination with Egypt, which has thus far been reluctant to welcome large numbers of people from Gaza.

Say, has anyone asked Egypt why they are “thus far reluctant” to take in Gazans?

Never mind, I’ll tell you. It’s because more than 70 percent of Palestinians believe the October 7, 2023 Hamas attack on Israel was justified. Egypt sure as heck doesn’t want any terrorist sympathizers in their country.

But the hacks running our country know that bringing them here fits perfectly with their plan to undermine our stability and freedoms. I mean, just look at the Pax Americana currently being expressed at our universities in mostly peaceful anti-semitic protests!

Yes, please, more of that!

Oh, and get a look at more of the lawless population displacement this completely treasonous junta is conducting.

The DHS data shows that during an 8 month stretch from January through August 2023, roughly 200,000 migrants flew into the U.S. via the program, with 80% of them, (161,562) arriving in the state of Florida in four cities: Miami, Ft. Lauderdale, Orlando, & Tampa.

The top 15 cities migrants flew into, & the numbers during this 8 month window, are below. 1) Miami, FL: 91,821 2) Ft. Lauderdale, FL: 60,461 3) New York City, NY: 14,827 4) Houston, TX: 7,923 5) Orlando, FL: 6,043 6) Los Angeles, CA: 3,271 7) Tampa, FL: 3,237 8) Dallas, TX: 2,256 9) San Francisco, CA: 2,052 10) Atlanta, GA: 1,796 11) Newark, NJ: 1,498 12) Washington, D.C.: 1,472 13) Chicago, IL: 496 14) Las Vegas, NV: 483 15) Austin, TX: 171

I’ve attached the raw DHS data provided in the subpoena response showing all of the locations the migrants flew into during these 8 months in the chart below.

DHS also revealed in the subpoena response that as of October 2023, there was a backlog about 1.6 million applicants waiting for DHS approval to fly to the U.S. via the parole program.

Why do you think they’ve flown the trespassing foreigners into these cities?

No, wait, I’ll tell you. It’s because they 1) will be hard to find and deport, 2) will turn the cities blue and bluer, and 3) will further stress our economy and welfare system. It’s all designed to break us down.

We’re experiencing the overthrow of our constitutional republic in real time.

Daily Broadside |  250-Year-Old Glass Bottles Filled With Cherry Preserves at Mount Vernon and the Usual Suspects Make Sure to Mention Slavery

Not my typical fare but I call your attention to it because woke institutions need to poison everything. First, though, from the Mount Vernon Ladies’ Association, which doesn’t appear to have been infiltrated by the cultural Marxists (yet).

As part of the landmark privately funded $40 million Mansion Revitalization Project at George Washington’s Mount Vernon, archaeologists have made a significant discovery of two intact European-manufactured bottles in the Mansion cellar. The dark green glass bottles were found upright and sealed, each containing liquid. The bottle shapes are characteristic of styles from the 1740s – 1750s and were recovered from a pit where they may have been forgotten and eventually buried beneath a brick floor laid in the 1770s.

[…]

“As we conduct a historic preservation effort at the iconic home of America’s first President and revolutionary hero, we have been deliberate and intentional about carefully excavating areas of potential disruption,” said Mount Vernon President & CEO Doug Bradburn. “Consequently, we have made a number of useful discoveries including this blockbuster find of two fully intact glass bottles containing liquid that have not been seen since before the war for American independence.”

The dark green bottles are described as containing whole cherries, pits, stems and a “gooey residue,” accompanied by the scent of cherry blossoms. I know what you’re thinking: could these be the cherries from the tree that the young rapscallion George Washington chopped down, but could not lie about having done so? Wouldn’t that be the find of the century?

I hate to burst your cherry-colored bubble, but no.

“As the bottles are shipped off for a complete scientific analysis, we want to share our findings and next steps for this historic archaeological and preservation initiative at Mount Vernon. This discovery comes at the beginning of an exciting and transformational project to strengthen and restore the home of the nation’s first president so that it will be stronger than ever when we celebrate America’s 250th birthday in 2026. This historic preservation project is our birthday gift to America,” Bradburn said.

Don’t forget to mark your calendars. If the country is still standing on July 4, 2026, under a second Trump administration, you may be able to find a celebration unmarred by LGTBQWERTY+ and Palestinian flags where you can gather with friends around your white supremacist grill.

Of course, it’s not enough to just enjoy finding a couple of intact 250-year-old bottles of cherry preserves in the basement of our first president’s house. The enablers in the Leftist press have to throw in some reference to his sins. Can’t let you honor a man who is dishonorable.

Smithsonian Magazine (referencing WaPo): “The cherries weren’t picked by Washington, but by one of the hundreds of enslaved individuals living at Mount Vernon at the time, according to the Washington Post.”

Fox News: “Historians believe that the discovery will not only shed light on how food was preserved at Mount Vernon, but may also reveal new details about slavery on the plantation.”

The Guardian: “The bottles had been imported from England during the colonial era and the fruit could very well have been picked by enslaved people on the estate, the Washington family’s grand mansion overlooking the Potomac River near Washington DC.”

Yahoo News: “The liquid and cherries in the two bottles already discovered has been poured out. It’ll be examined and studied, as historians aim to study everything from food preservation to how enslaved people worked at Mount Vernon.”

USA Today: “‘We’re the first people to touch these objects since they were put in the ground by an enslaved person,’ Boroughs said.”

Someone without an agenda would simply say in that last example, “We’re the first people to touch these objects since they were first buried.”

Exciting find. Garbage media.

Daily Broadside | Trump’s 2020 Lawyer Is Suspended But Won’t Back Down

John Eastman represented president Donald Trump in the wake of the 2020 election, challenging the election’s integrity. It’s wound up costing him personally, and The Epoch Times just published a feature about his experience. (If you have a subscription, you can read it here; otherwise I think it’s paywalled.)

Last summer, the State Bar charged Mr. Eastman, the former Dean of Chapman University Law School, with 11 counts of misconduct related to his role in representing former President Donald Trump after the 2020 presidential election.

But, Mr. Eastman told The Epoch Times in an exclusive interview on April 5, he has no regrets about representing President Trump nor for alleging fraud and questioning the election results.

“No. Absolutely not,” he said bluntly. “What I saw at the time raised real serious questions in my mind about the validity of the election.”

Since then, Mr. Eastman said his investigation has confirmed his suspicions “tenfold.”

Funny how, given enough time, anyone who looks at the evidence with an open mind comes away convinced that there are serious questions about how Brandon won that election.

Mr. Eastman, who was accused of not having the evidence to back up those allegations, said he will appeal Judge Yvette Roland’s March 27 ruling recommending disbarment, but in the meantime his law license has been suspended on “involuntary inactive enrollment,” which means he can’t practice law in California.

[…]

Democrat-appointed Judge Roland ruled that Mr. Eastman broke ethics rules by advancing President Trump’s challenges to the integrity of the 2020 election.

The judge stated in her ruling that “despite compelling evidence against him … Eastman remains defiant, refusing to acknowledge any impropriety whatsoever in his actions surrounding his efforts to dispute the 2020 presidential election results.”

“His lack of insight into the wrongfulness of his misconduct is deeply troubling,” she wrote.

“Eastman continues to hold the view that his statements were factually and legally justified. He demonstrated disdain for these proceedings by characterizing them as a political persecution, claiming that the disciplinary charges against him contained false and misleading statements, and that those who brought them should themselves be disbarred,” Judge Roland wrote in her ruling.

His “complete denial of wrongdoing, coupled with his attempts to discredit legitimate disciplinary proceedings are concerning,” she wrote.

We don’t live in a free society anymore. The Marxists are going after the professional classes who represent the opposition. When they’re either jailed, disbarred or otherwise removed, they can more easily go after the armchair opinionists (like me).

Did Eastman have any compelling evidence?

Mr. Eastman drew from evidence provided by Garland Favorito, a retired information technology professional and founder of VoterGA, a nonpartisan, nonprofit election integrity group.

Mr. Favorito, is the lead plaintiff in a lawsuit filed on Dec. 23, 2020, that challenged the authenticity of 147,000 absentee ballots cast in Georgia’s Fulton County.

“He’s an independent, and he is an expert on election integrity issues, who discovered “thousands of ballots that were duplicated and counted multiple times,” in deep blue areas of Atlanta in violation of state law, Mr. Eastman said.

“We also had Michael Gableman, former Supreme Court justice of Wisconsin … who was retained by the legislature to conduct an investigation, and they discovered hundreds of thousands of illegal ballots,” he said.

Mr. Gableman uncovered alleged nursing home fraud, which Mr. Eastman said accounts for much more than the 20,000-vote margin of victory for Joe Biden, and voter turnout rates in nursing homes went from 20 to 30 percent historically to nearly 100 percent, including from within memory care wings.

“Many of the ballots are in the same handwriting, so the illegality opened the door for fraud, which Gableman proved … and it affected way more than 20,000 ballots,” he said.

“There’s no question Wisconsin was stolen. To this day, there are 120,000 more ballots than voters in Pennsylvania, a state where the margin was 80,000.”

Americans used to go to a local polling place such as a neighborhood community room at the library or the local church to vote, but in 2020 mail-in ballots were counted in much larger facilities in big cities such as Atlanta, Detroit, and Philadelphia where it would be “much easier to sneak in a pallet of ballots,” he said.

I believe that the 2020 election was stolen and that Joe Biden’s “presidency” is fraudulent. It’s the greatest fraud ever perpetrated on the American people, even beyond the presidency of B. Hussein Obama.

It will take all of us hanging together in refusing to concede that the election was stolen. The evidence is there—you’re just not allowed to see that it is. Noticing is verboten.

Have a good weekend.

Daily Broadside | Breeding “Low Emission Cattle” Is Apparently A Thing And I Can’t Even

When low wattage House Representative AOC (D-Marxist) first suggested getting rid of flatulent cows to combat “climate change” back in 2019, she was dragged by conservatives and back-pedaled from the non-binding resolution that was the precursor of the Green New Deal.

Now a group from the Curtin University Sustainability Policy Institute in Australia has published a study that suggests breeding less gaseous bovines can “permanently reduce methane production.”

New research suggests that breeding dairy cows to fart less — and, therefore, release less methane — could cut down on greenhouse gases.

The team from Curtin University Sustainability Policy Institute in Australia combed through 27 reports, drawing conclusions about various ways to curb methane emissions in the dairy and beef sectors in the country.

If I’m reading that right, this isn’t even original research. The Aussies studied other people’s studies to reach their conclusions.

Food production is one of the leading causes of climate change — livestock farming accounts for about 10% of greenhouse gas emissions — with one 2020 study finding that burps and farts from cattle, as well as manure management, are a significant contributor to global warming.

The latest study, published in the journal Climate this month and the first of its kind, suggests that transforming farmland into forest or wetland would be most effective at reducing methane, but breeding less gassy cows may also be an avenue worth exploring.

OK, first of all, cows have been been burping and farting for thousands of years and the climate has been just fine. Any change has come from the rise of technology and the internal combustible engine. It’s not the cows—but these eco-warriors just can’t help themselves from meddling with the ecosystem that God arranged.

Second, it’s not the farts that are the problem, it’s the burping.

He says he was dismayed to see Ocasio-Cortez blaming “cow farts” for greenhouse gas emissions. Technically, she’s right: As cattle digest food, they release nitrous oxide and ammonia in their manure, gases that have planet-warming potential. But the more abundant greenhouse gas, methane, comes out mostly through their burps, which makes them a more significant driver of climate change. None of this is funny to Mitloehner, by the way, whose research involves putting cows in air-tight tents to measure the content of their “eruptions.”

I mean, if you’re going to mess with the biological makeup of a cow, at least target the right end of the digestive tract.

Third, do you realize that the amount of CO2 (the other main “greenhouse gas” alongside methane and nitrous oxide) in our atmosphere is incredibly small? Rep. Doug LaMalfa (R-CA) asked a panel of “witnesses” during a House Transportation Committee meeting in March 2023, “What percent of our atmosphere is CO2, carbon dioxide?”

None of them knew. They just guessed, anywhere from 5 percent to 8 percent. LaMalfa then dropped the mic: “The answer is point-zero-four percent [0.04%]. Not 1 percent, not a half of a percent, point-zero-four percent. And it’s gone up from point-zero-three over the last couple of decades … It’s this tiny change in CO2. If we get below point-zero-two, plant life starts dying off.”

In other words, our CO2 levels are just barely above what our trees, shrubs and flowers need to survive. If anything, doesn’t it seem like we should increase our CO2 levels?

If we were to take LaMalfa’s point-zero-four percent and turn it into a number, this is what we’re talking about: 0.0004 or “four ten-thousandths.” Expressed as a fraction, 1/2500. Hardly something to be alarmed about.

Now, how much methane do you think is in the atmosphere? More than the amount of CO2? Here’s what NASA says:

Methane is an important trace gas in Earth’s atmosphere. Even though it only makes up 0.00017% (1.7 parts per million by volume) of the the atmosphere, methane traps a significant amount of heat, helping the planet remain warm and habitable. The amount of methane in the atmosphere is the result of a balance between production on the surface and destruction in the atmosphere. Methane forms when organic matter decomposes in oxygen-poor environments, such as marshes, rice paddies, or the digestive systems of cattle. It also comes from combustion (burning) of carbon-based fuels.

Oh. So “methane is an important trace gas in the Earth’s atmosphere” that keeps us warm. And it makes up even less of the atmosphere than CO2 (which, I note, is not produced by flatulent bovines). Maybe we don’t want to “permanently reduce methane production.”

Logically, shouldn’t the climate change heroes be focusing on CO2, especially since we only have (according to AOC) ten five years to save the planet?

Nope. Self-appointed busy-bodies who think they’re following “the science” are going to engineer a less farty cow to save the planet.

Frankly, I’d like them to figure out how to breed less farty people.
