Twitter announces outlets that can call election results | 02 Nov 2020 | Twitter revealed more details on how it'll be “combating misinformation" on Election Day. On Monday, the social media giant announced seven news outlets it'll lean on to make proclamations of election outcomes. The list includes ABC News, Associated Press, CNN, CBS News, Decision Desk HQ, Fox News, and NBC News. Twitter will wait for two of those seven outlets to call a race before it allows posts definitively declaring a winner. Twitter said it will label tweets prematurely declaring a winner. If users attempt to share a tweet that prematurely calls a race, they will receive a notification that reads, "Official sources may not have called the race when this was Tweeted," with a link to "find out more." They also may see a warning that says, "Official sources called this election differently.”

Democrats colluding with CIA to launch intelligence operation that alters voting machine results - report | 02 Nov 2020 | Dave Janda of Operation Freedom has unleashed a bombshell story with huge implications for Tuesday's elections. Janda's guest in his latest broadcast is a former high-level intelligence official (Lt. Gen. Tom McInerney) who warns that the Dems and the CIA have put in place a mechanism which can alter the voting results of electronic voting machines in key swing states (like Pennsylvania) that will determine the outcome of the election. This covert technology is called Operation Scorecard, and it was built by the CIA to surreptitiously steal elections in targeted countries. Now, that technology is being turned against the United States of America and is about to be activated on Tuesday to steal the election for Biden, explains Janda's guest.

Masses Welcome Trump in Pennsylvania - 'Just a Sea of People' --'Is there a better place to be anytime, anywhere than a Trump rally?' | 01 Nov 2020 | President Donald Trump is mounting one final test of whether the massive crowds that show up at his signature rallies will translate into votes as he finishes the final 48 hours of his reelection campaign with a dizzying onslaught of events in the battleground states that could decide the race. Tens of thousands up supporters showed up for his event in Butler, Pa. on Saturday evening, the second of three in the state. The Secret Service estimated the number at 57,000. Thousands more greeted him in Montoursville, Pa. -- his last event of the day.

'I appreciate the advice': Trump tells crowd chanting 'Fire Fauci!' to wait until after election | 02 Nov 2020 | (Opa-Locka, FL) President Donald Trump suggested to a crowd of supporters Sunday that if elected to a second term, he would fire Anthony Fauci, the nation's [so-called] leader on infectious diseases who has pushed back on the president's rosy outlook on the coronavirus. Trump made the remark during a rally that capped off a marathon day in which the president visited five battleground states. "We're going to have a safe vaccine that ends the pandemic," Trump promised the crowd. Even without it, he said, "we're rounding the turn." "Fire Fauci!" the crowd began to chant.  Trump paused briefly to listen to the refrain before telling his supporters, "Don't tell anybody, but let me wait till a little bit after the election, please." "I appreciate the advice. I appreciate the advice," Trump continued. "No, he's been wrong though a lot. He's a nice man though." 

Democrats Growing More Anxious in Pennsylvania About 'Late Shift' Towards Trump - Report | 01 Nov 2020 | Democrats are anxious about Pennsylvania and a "potential late shift" towards President Donald Trump that could threaten their narrow lead, according to the Washington Post on Sunday. The concern was embodied in what the Post called a "last-minute, two-day blitz" for Biden in the state, as Trump held four rallies in Pennsylvania on Saturday. The paper reported: "Most Democrats still believe Biden will capture Pennsylvania, and he maintains a modest polling lead there, but their confidence has eroded in recent weeks with emerging signs of a tightening contest in the state, according to elected officials, strategists and party activists. Both sides believe the outcome in Pennsylvania will be crucial in determining who wins the White House." Democrats are worried for a variety of reasons, the paper reported. They are worried about problems with mail-in balloting, which Democrats heavily encouraged in recent weeks. They are worried about a "voter surge" in so-called "White, rural areas" favorable to Trump and signs of a lower-than-anticipated turnout among the Democratic base.

Pennsylvania AG Declares 'Trump Is Going to Lose' If Every Vote Is Counted | 02 Nov 2020 | Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro predicted over the weekend that President Trump will lose Pennsylvania in Tuesday's election if every vote in the battleground state is counted. "If all the votes are added up in PA, Trump is going to lose. That’s why he's working overtime to subtract as many votes as possible from this process," Shapiro said in a tweet Saturday afternoon. Last week, Shapiro accused Trump of “actively trying to undermine this election” because he is unable to win Pennsylvania. 

Trump rails against Supreme Court for extending ballot deadlines | 30 Oct 2020 | President Trump took to Twitter to blast the Supreme Court following its decision this week to allow Pennsylvania and North Carolina to count mail-in ballots after Election Day. "If Sleepy Joe Biden is actually elected President, the 4 Justices (plus1) that helped make such a ridiculous win possible would be relegated to sitting on not only a heavily PACKED COURT, but probably a REVOLVING COURT as well," Trump tweeted just before 3 a.m. Friday. "At least the many new Justices will be Radical Left!" The Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld previous decisions to extend absentee ballot deadlines. That will allow ballots to be counted up to three days after Nov. 3 in Pennsylvania and nine days in North Carolina -- both key battleground states that Trump won in 2016. Newly sworn-in Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett -- a Trump appointee -- did not take part in the vote.

Butler County Elections Director Says Postal Service Lost Unknown Number of Mail-In Ballots --As of Tuesday, Pennsylvania voters are no longer able to apply for an absentee or mail-in ballot. | 28 Oct 2020 | The Butler County Bureau of Elections director says an unknown number of mail-in ballots were lost by the postal service. "At first we thought that maybe it just was a delay in the postal system," Leslie Osche, chair of the Butler County commissioners, told KDKA. "And that could still be the case. But nonetheless, when we realized that, we changed our strategy and now have begun to tell folks that if they haven’t received a ballot, they still have multiple options." Many people who applied for ballots have told KDKA that they have not arrived. Federal postal investigators are now looking into what happened. In the meantime, the Butler County Bureau of Elections director is urging those voters to go to the Bureau of Elections or fill out a provisional ballot at their polling place on Election Day.

'They literally stole my vote': Investigation underway after voters claim they received ballots that were filled out in Fayette County | 30 Oct 2020 | (Fayette County, PA) Fayette County prosecutors are investigating reports of at least four incidents of voter fraud, according to Fayette County District Attorney Rich Bower. Bower said two voters received mail-in ballots that were already filled out and two ballots were found at the election bureau already opened.  "The secrecy envelope was missing and the ballot was missing out of those envelopes," said Bower. Bower said the ballots that were already filled out and arrived at homes 40 miles apart, which he says means they are not isolated incidents. "They literally stole my vote," said Delmas Fike. Fike said when his mail-in ballot arrived, each Democrat was already selected.

Dead people caught voting in NYC, elections records show | 02 Nov 2020 | Ballots have been mailed in to the New York City Board of Elections in the name of dead voters, The Post has learned. Records show that the elections board received an absentee ballot from a Frances Reckhow of Staten Island, a registered Democrat. The BOE mailed an absentee ballot requested by Frances M. Reckhow of Bedell Avenue on Sept. 24. Reckhow supposedly mailed the ballot back on Oct. 6 and the BOE received it and declared it valid on Oct. 8, tracking records show. But there’s a problem: Frances Reckhow, who was born on July 6, 1915 and would be 105 today, died in 2012, according to an obituary filed with The Staten Advance. Her daughter, Carol Huben, a registered Republican according to voting records, is listed as residing at the same address as her late mother.

Judicial Watch finds 1.8 million 'ghost voters' in 29 states, warns of 'dirty elections' | 20 Oct 2020 | Judicial Watch has released a comparison study of Census Bureau population statistics and state voter registration data to reveal a notable disparity. The watch dog group is now warning of potential voter fraud and "dirty" voter rolls. The study found that 352 U.S. counties in 29 states managed to have 1.8 million more registered voters than eligible voting-age citizens. "In other words, the registration rates of those counties exceeded 100% of eligible voters. The study found eight states showing state-wide registration rates exceeding 100%: Alaska, Colorado, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and Vermont," reported Tom Fitton, president of the watchdog group. Some of that excess ran as high as 187% in Texas, 177% in New Mexico and 171% in South Dakota.

Wisconsin GOP says hackers stole $2.3M from Trump reelection fund--The party noticed the suspicious activity on Oct. 22. | 29 Oct 2020 | Hackers stole 2.3 million from the Wisconsin Republican Party's account that was being used to help reelect President Donald Trump in the key battleground state, the party's chairman told The Associated Press on Thursday. The party noticed the suspicious activity on Oct. 22 and contacted the FBI on Friday, said Republican Party Chairman Andrew Hitt. Hitt said the FBI is investigating. Hitt said the hackers were able to manipulate invoices from four vendors who were being paid to send out direct mail for Trump's reelection efforts and to provide pro-Trump material such as hats that could be handed out to supporters.

Trump warns election rioters, looters 'will be prosecuted to the fullest extent' | 02 Nov 2020 | President Trump on Monday night issued a stark warning to potential protesters of Tuesday's election results, declaring that "rioting, looting and arson will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law." Trump delivered the warning in riot-torn Kenosha, Wisconsin, during his fourth of five election eve rallies in swing states -- and as businesses in DC, New York and other cities boarded windows. "As I’m sure you've heard, [Democratic candidate Joe] Biden's far-left supporters are threatening to loot and riot tomorrow if they don't get their way," Trump told thousands of supporters. Trump said, however, "If they know we're ready, and if they know we're not playing games, they won’t even be here, they won’t show up.”

Stores across country board up fearing election-related chaos | 02 Nov 2020 | Businesses nationwide are fortifying themselves for Election Day riots. Shops in San Francisco, Beverly Hills, Washington, DC, Atlantic City, Chicago, Boston, Indianapolis and Denver have already boarded up their storefronts ahead of Tuesday's US presidential election. In recent days, many businesses in New York City boarded up to gird against potential civil unrest. In Washington, DC, not far from the White House, eateries, shops, pharmacies and clothing stores have already put up plywood over their glass storefronts. Several prominent DC businesses are even planning to close for Election Day or the entire week, over potential mayhem and violence stemming from the election face-off between President Trump and his Democratic challenger, former Vice President Joe Biden, the Washingtonian reported.

States mull deploying National Guard amid worries about Election Day unrest | 31 Oct 2020 | Amid worries about civil unrest and violence following the presidential election and possible shortages of poll workers on Nov. 3 itself, more state leaders are considering deployment of the National Guard. Although the U.S. military is generally left out of the election process, polling locations attempting to manage impossibly long voting lines may not be in a position to turn away help from the Guard, whose members would fill in as plainclothes poll workers or help to monitor cybersecurity. In key battleground states such as the Rust Belt's Wisconsin and the Sun Belt's Arizona, governors have already announced they could or would activate the National Guard to help with security. Wisconsin Democratic Gov. Tony Evers said Thursday that he would deploy around 400 members to compensate for poll worker shortages.

Congressman Mike Doyle's South Side Office, Candidate Sean Parnell's House Vandalized With Similar Messages --Pittsburgh Police have launched an investigation into the case of vandalism at Rep. Doyle's office. | 01 Nov 2020 | Two local politicians, a Democrat and a Republican, both the victims of apparent vandalism overnight. Rep. Mike Doyle's office and congressional candidate Sean Parnell's home were tagged with the same message: "Elections, no. Revolution, yes." Rep. Mike Doyle's office on the South Side was tagged with the message and what appears to be a hammer and a sickle, the same message that appeared on Parnell's garage door. Red spray paint stretched across the Republican U.S. Congressional candidate's garage door on Sunday morning and across the front of Democrat Doyle's office. The message was accompanied by a hammer and sickle, the symbol commonly associated with communism.

In First Republican Presidential Endorsement In 48 Years, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Endorses Trump | 01 Nov 2020 | The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette endorsed President Donald Trump three days before the election Saturday in the paper's first Republican presidential endorsement since 1972. "We share the embarrassment of millions of Americans who are disturbed by the president's unpresidential manners and character," the paper's editorial board wrote, before adding, "But he gets things done." The Pennsylvania paper emphasized Trump’s accomplishments on the economy and trade while lauding the president for keeping his promise to appoint originalist judges. "Under Donald Trump the economy, pre-COVID, boomed, like no time since the 1950s. Look at your 401(k) over the past three years. Unemployment for Black Americans is lower than it has ever been, under any president of either party," the editors explained. "Under Mr. Trump, our trade relationships have vastly improved and our trade deals have been rewritten. Thanks to him, middle America is on the map again and the Appalachian and hourly worker has some hope.”

Trump rips GOP ex-Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder after Biden endorsement | 30 Oct 2020 | President Trump excoriated GOP former Michigan Gov. [bio-terrorist] Rick Snyder in a Friday morning tweet for supporting Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden. Snyder, who served as governor from 2011 to 2019 before being succeeded by Democrat Gretchen Whitmer [another sociopath, like Snyder], announced Thursday that he was a "proud Republican" who had voted for Biden. "I would NEVER have taken the endorsement of the man who, through gross incompetence, poisoned the people of Flint, Michigan," Trump wrote in a Friday morning tweet, referring to the Wolverine State's lead-tainted water crisis. "Former RINO Governor Rick Snyder should be ashamed of himself and his service. I was asked to help fix it. Biden took his endorsement. VOTE TRUMP!!!" he wrote, using the acronym for the term "Republican in name only.”

U.S. Loses $19 Billion in Afghanistan Reconstruction Funds to Fraud, Waste, Abuse | 29 Oct 2020 | A staggering 19 billion spent by the U.S. government to reconstruct Afghanistan has been lost to fraud, waste, and abuse in the last decade and that only includes a portion of the m-ney allocated by Congress for the cause. In 90% of the cases examined in a new federal audit, the m-ney was blown "carelessly, extravagantly, or to no purpose." This month the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) published a troubling report that analyzes less than half of the U.S. budget for the initiative, 63 billion in projects. As of December 2019, Congress has appropriated 134 billion for Afghanistan reconstruction, which began roughly a year after the U.S. invaded the Islamic nation to destroy Al-Qaeda [al-CIA-duh] and eradicate the Taliban. Afghanistan reconstruction has been a huge and well-chronicled debacle that continues fleecing American taxpayers nearly two decades after its inception.

Vienna shooting: Gunman hunted after deadly 'terror' attack | 02 Nov 2020 | Gunmen armed with rifles have opened fire in six different locations in central Vienna, killing two people and wounding several more, police say. Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz called it a "repulsive terror attack" and said one gunman was also killed. Police were searching for at least one attacker who was still at large, the interior minister said. The shootings took place near Vienna's central synagogue but it is not yet clear if that was the target. One of the victims was killed at the scene of the shootings while a second - a woman - died later in hospital from her wounds, Mayor Michael Ludwig said. It is believed 14 other people remain in hospital, six in a serious condition. A police officer is among the injured, the interior ministry said.

Decision to dump radioactive water from the Fukushima nuclear disaster site into the ocean sparks alarm | 31 Oct 2020 | In mid-October, the Japanese government announced plans to dump water contaminated with radioactive isotopes from a nuclear disaster site in Fukushima, sparking alarm all over the world. Japanese news service Kyodo reported on October 16 that the Japanese government had announced that it would authorize the release of about a million tonnes of radioactive water into the ocean from the Daiichi nuclear power installation in Fukushima prefecture. Following the announcement, Greenpeace published a report stating the contaminated water contained "dangerous" levels of carbon-14, a radioactive isotope that can damage human DNA. Amidst concerns about the impact of the contaminated water on the environment and human health, however, some experts pointed out that it was difficult--if not impossible--to assess the true risk without knowing more about the government's plans. Fukushima's economically devastated fishing sector opposes any sort of plan that includes ocean disposal, which might contaminate their catch.

Gov. Cuomo announces mandatory COVID-19 testing for out-of-state travelers --Anyone who refuses to be tested must quarantine for 14 days. | 31 Oct 2020 | Most people who visit New York will have to quarantine for three days and then prove they are negative for COVID-19 before they are "free to go about their business," Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced Saturday. The strict new mandate -- which exempts New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania residents -- eliminates the governor's quarantine advisory list, which restricted travel from over 40 coronavirus hotspots across the country. Now, travelers must show proof of a negative test taken within three days of arriving in the Empire State, and must also quarantine for three more days -- and get a new COVID-19 test on the fourth. If that's positive, they must isolate for two weeks, the governor said at an Albany press briefing.

France sees 400-mile traffic jam as country enters new COVID lockdown | 30 Oct 2020 | A 430-mile traffic jam clogged up Paris Thursday night just hours before the city was placed under a new lockdown amid a fresh wave of COVID-19 cases. The second nationwide lockdown went into effect at midnight, allowing 65 million people to leave their homes only for food shopping, medical appointments and work until Dec. 1. Only schools and essential businesses will remain open as the country battles another surge in coronavirus infections -- the highest since April. The latest lockdown appeared to send Parisians fleeing the city to the countryside, BBC News reported, citing French media. But Thursday also marked one of the last days people could return home after the country's school half-term, which ends after All Saints Day on Nov. 1.

Harris, prominent Democrats listed as 'key contacts' for Biden family business venture projects --Email is unrelated to the laptop or hard drive purportedly belonging to Hunter Biden | 22 Oct 2020 | A list of "key domestic contacts" for a joint venture involving Jim and Hunter Biden and now-bankrupt CEFC China Energy Co. included former Vice President Joe Biden's current running mate Sen. Kamala Harris, among other prominent Democrats, Fox News has learned. An email exclusively obtained by Fox News, with the subject line "Phase one domestic contacts/ projects" and dated May 15, 2017, Biden’s brother, Jim Biden, shared a list of "key domestic contacts for phase one target projects." The email is unrelated to the laptop or hard drive purportedly belonging to Hunter Biden, the former vice president's son. The list, included Harris, D-Calif.; Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.; Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn.; Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif.; Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y.; New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo; New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio; former Virginia Gov. Terry McCauliffe, among others. Read the email here.

FBI conducting criminal investigation into Hunter Biden and associates days ahead of 2020 election - report | 29 Oct 2020 | The FBI reportedly has an active criminal investigation into Hunter Biden, the son of Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, and his associates. James Rosen, a reporter with the Sinclair Broadcast Group, tweeted on Thursday, less than a week until Election Day, that the bureau opened the inquiry into allegations of m-ney-laundering in 2019. "EXCLUSIVE: A @TheJusticeDept official confirms that in 2019, the @FBI opened up a criminal investigation into 'Hunter Biden and his associates,' focused on allegations of m-ney-laundering, and that it remains open and active today," he said. Rosen followed up by posting a short TV report to his Twitter account.

DOJ official confirms FBI 2019 criminal investigation into Hunter Biden is still active | 29 Oct 2020 | A justice department official has confirmed to Sinclair Broadcast Group that the FBI opened up a criminal investigation into Hunter Biden and his associates back in 2019, focused on allegations of m-ney-laundering, and that the probe remains active. Sinclair investigative reporter James Rosen has also spoken with a central witness in these allegations, which suggests that former Vice President Joe Biden knew more than he has acknowledged about his son's overseas dealings. Tony Bobulinksi was thrust into the national spotlight on the evening of the final presidential debate. It was on that night the former business associate of Hunter Biden claimed Democratic nominee Joe Biden knew about his son taking payments from Chinese and Ukrainian companies and strongly suggested he got a kickback.

A Collusion Tale: China and the Bidens --Not only were the Bidens' Chinese business contacts known to have ties to the regime; they also may have been clandestine agents. | 31 Oct 2020 | (Opinion) The corrupt Chinese businessmen with whom the Bidens were colluding not only had a record of buying political influence, not only were known to have high-level ties to the Chinese Communist Party and the regime, but also were clandestine agents of China -- at least, that's what the FBI and Justice Department seem to have told the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. The Bidens were seeking a 40 million liquefied natural gas (LNG) deal with CEFC, a Shanghai-based energy conglomerate that was flying high until early 2018. By then, however, it had become crystal clear to Xi Jinping's government that the company's machinations on behalf of the regime had been penetrated by U.S. intelligence and law-enforcement. CEFC formally went bankrupt earlier this year, but that was two years after the regime pulled the plug on its operations -- which appear to have been a cover for Chinese intelligence operations. The Bidens, with former vice president Joe Biden's son Hunter as the point-man, dealt with CEFC in 2017. 

The Post's Twitter account gained about 190,000 followers during blackout | 30 Oct 2020 | The Post gained about 190,000 Twitter followers while it was locked out of its primary account by the social media giant, data shows. That number represents a 10.6 percent increase in just about two weeks, according to analytics tool Social Blade. The spike came as Twitter blocked the news organization from posting during that time period... The missive included an image of The Post's Saturday front page, with the headline "Free bird!" "We're baaaaaaack," the tweet read.

Girl Scouts deletes tweet congratulating ACB but leaves Hillary Clinton post --The move quickly faced swift backlash from critics and lawmakers | 29 Oct 2020 | The Girl Scouts of America deleted a social media post on its official Twitter and Facebook pages Wednesday evening congratulating Amy Coney Barrett on her appointment to the Supreme Court. The original post, shared by FOX 6 Milwaukee political reporter Jason Calvi, included the caption: "Congratulations Amy Coney Barrett on becoming the 5th woman appointed to the Supreme Court since its inception in 1789" ending with an emoji of hands raised up. The move quickly faced swift backlash from critics and lawmakers... The Girl Scouts previously shared a Huffington Post article dating back to December 2013 in which former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton discussed the importance of female political leadership as she was mulling a run in the 2016 election.
