UPDATE: DONALD TRUMP: THE FACE OF TREASON AND CORRUPTION.

UPDATE.

126 MEMBERS OF THE U.S. HOUSE HAVE REPORTEDLY JOINED THE 18 A.G.S TO ASK THE SUPREME COURT IN OVERTURNING 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. HOWEVER, AS YOU MIGHT EXPECT, THEY OFFER NO EVIDENCE. LIKE GOOD GOOSE-STEPPING FASCISTS, LOGIC, REASON, CRITICAL THINKING AND TRUTH ARE JUST WORDS TO BE IGNORED IF IT PREVENTS "DER FUEHER" TRUMP FROM SEIZING ABSOLUTE POWER.

BY THE WAY, THE HOUSE HAS 435 VOTING MEMBERS. THAT MEANS 309 MEMBERS ACTUALLY TOOK THEIR OATH OF OFFICE SERIOUSLY, AND DECIDED THAT HONOR WAS MORE IMPORTANT THAN SELLING OUT TO A RUSSIAN STOOGE.

THE REPUBLICAN LEADERSHIP AND THEIR RUSSIANS ALLIES ARE NOT HAPPY, BECAUSE 32 STATES DECIDED THAT TREASON WAS NOT IN THIS COUNTRIES BEST INTEREST, AND DID NOT JOIN TEXAS IN ITS ATTEMPT TO DESTROY OUR CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC. 

BELOW ARE STATEMENTS FROM ELECTED OFFICIALS WHO DON'T BELIEVE RACISTS, FASCISTS, XENOPHOBES, RELIGIOUS ZEALOTS, etc. SHOULD BE CREATING THEIR OWN PERSONAL ELECTION LAWS TO HAND DONALD TRUMP ANOTHER STOLEN ELECTION.

@MIAttyGen

@dananessel

issued the following statement in response to the lawsuit filed by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton seeking to overturn election results in Michigan and other states:

BEST LINE: "PARTISAN OFFICIALS, LIKE MR. PAXTON, WHO PLACE LOYALTY TO A PERSON

OVER LOYALTY TO THEIR COUNTRY."

WHY DON'T WE ASK HISTORIANS IN GERMANY, UKRAINE, CAMBODIA, UGANDA. etc,

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN CORRUPT OFFICIALS GIVE A SINGLE PERSON UNLIMITED POWER, WITH NO CONSEQUENCES FOR THEIR ACTIONS.

Adam Schiff

@RepAdamSchiff

Demanding governors overturn results. Coercing state election officials. Insisting state legislators appoint new electors.   Trump lost, and these attacks will not succeed.    But if you believe in democracy, silence is complicity.

REP. SCHIFF IS RIGHT ON TARGET.

UNFORTUNATELY, DEM. SENATORS. CONTINUE THEIR

POLICY OF NOT STANDING UP FOR, WELL, ANYTHING.

UPDATE: THE 2020 ELECTION: ANOTHER REVIEW...MORE OF THE SAME? GOOD IDEA TEXAS A.G.

FROM TWITTER:

Texas AG sues over election results in four battleground states

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to block Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania from voting in the Electoral College. Experts say there is no evidence of widespread fraud in the 2020 election.

BRILLIANT A.G. PAXTON. ALL 5 STATES SHOULD COME TOGETHER, AND ANALYZE THE RESULTS FOR ANY "FRAUDULENT" OR "BOGUS" RESULTS FROM THE 2020 ELECTION. THAT WAY YOU CAN SHOW THE WORLD HOW MUCH BETTER TEXAS IS WHEN INVESTIGATING CONTROVERSIAL ELECTION RESULTS.

HERE ARE THE RESULTS FROM THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN THE LONE STAR STATE.

(COMPARED WITH THE 2016 ELECTION.)

WITH DONALD TRUMP STILL ATTEMPTING TO STEAL ANOTHER ELECTION, I THOUGHT ANOTHER REVIEW WOULD HELP SHED SOME MORE LIGHT ON THE TRUE NATURE OF HIS SUPPORT. TO DO THAT, WHAT WOULD BE MORE APPROPRIATE THAN A LOOK AT ONE OF HIS "STRONGHOLDS."

The following results are so absurd, that it's tough to blame just one person or party. Of all the bogus results that I have come across in the 2016 and 2020 Presidential elections, this stands alone. THE FACT THAT NO POLITICAL PARTY/ORGANIZATION OR MEDIA OUTLET HAS COMMENTED ON THESE "UNIQUE" RESULTS IS TELLING, AND THAT TOGETHER WITH THE 2020 RESULTS IN FLORIDA AND OHIO SEEMS TO INDICATE THAT NEITHER PARTY CAN BE TRUSTED TO ACTUALLY OPERATE AN ELECTION WITH MINIMAL GUARANTEES OF HONESTY AND ACCURACY IN SOME STATES. 

ALONG WITH THE BOGUS RESULTS FROM THE 2016  PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION, IT INDICATES A TREND TO ALLOW IMPROBABLE AND UNREALISTIC RETURNS IN SPECIFIC STATES TO GO UNCHALLENGED, WHILE AT THE SAME TIME ALLOWING UNEVIDENCED, IRRATIONAL AND INVALID ACCUSATIONS ABOUT ELECTION FRAUD AGAINST OTHER STATES BECOME NATIONAL NEWS BY REFUSING TO CONFRONT AN UNSCRUPULOUS DEMAGOGUE.

THIS IS NOT JUST A CORRUPT AND INCOMPETENT PRESIDENT AND HIS PARTY AT WORK. (DONALD TRUMP AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY).  IT WOULD NOT WORK UNLESS THE OPPOSITION PARTY OFFERED LITTLE OR NO RESISTANCE...AND THEY DON'T. (CHUCK SCHUMER AND SENATE DEMOCRATS.)

WITH THAT SAID, I PRESENT THE PRESIDENTIAL RETURNS FOR 2016 AND 2020 FROM THE STATE OF TEXAS.

Totals				8,969,226	100.00%	38
Turnout (VAP)						46.45%[33]

CHANGE FROM 2016-2020.

STATE TOAL-  + 2,345,830, 26.2%

REPUBLICAN TOTAL-  +1,205,300, 25.7%

DEMOCRATIC TOTAL-  +1,381,258, 35.6%

THE REPUBLICAN AND THE DEMOCRATIC PARTIES INCREASED 

THEIR COMBINED TOTALS 2,586,558 VOTES, 30.2%, WHICH IS

240,728 VOTES MORE THAN THE INCREASE FOR THE ENTIRE STATE.

WHAT IS REALLY INTERESTING IS:

THE # OF VOTES CAST FOR CANDIDATES

NEITHER REP. OR DEM. DECREASED BY : - 240,748

406,331-165,583= 240,748, OR 59.2%  BETWEEN 2016-2020.

THE DECREASE IN THE # OF NON-REP./DEM. VOTES BETWEEN 2016-2020: - 240,748

IS VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL TO THE COMBINED TOTALS OF INCREASED VOTES 

FOR BOTH PARTIES 2016-2020: 240,728.

SO LET'S CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING: THE STATEWIDE % OF THE TOTAL VOTE FOR

DONALD TRUMP REMAINED ABOUT THE SAME: 52.23% to 52.06% from 2016-2020,

WHILE THE DEMOCRATS INCREASED THEIR % OF THE STATE VOTE BY  43.24% TO 46.48%,

BOLSTERED BY A 35.6% INCREASE IN THE TOTAL  # OF VOTES FOR THE PARTY.

...AND THEY STILL LOST TEXAS.
