TAXES & the Risks Associated with The Infrastructure Deal


Armstrong Economics Blog/The Hunt for Taxes Re-Posted Jun 28, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

This bipartisan deal on new infrastructure spending that President Biden has reached this week with a group of “moderate” Democrats and “liberal” Republicans in the Senate represents a significant departure with respect to the Internal Revenue Service. Hidden within the claimed “infrastructure bill” you find $40 billion to beef up the IRS to hunt down everyone they can once again. The Biden White House is out to attack not the super-rich because they have everything in foundations and trusts which are tax-exempt. They will be targeting small businesses and harass them further if they survived the lockdowns. Those that did not will be investigated for fraud.

Lerner Lois

The budget of the IRS was reduced because they were abusing their power back in 2010. The IRS has seen its budget shrink by one-fifth between 2010 and 2018. It was not just Obama targeting the Tea Party. It was Republicans which included John McCain – the same guy who handed Comey Hillary’s fake dossier on Trump.

Perhaps you will recall  Lois Lerner who was the IRS former executive who was at the heart of a scandal involving the deliberate targeting of political opponents of the Obama administration. The DOJ waited for almost two years to dispose of this case quietly with never a prosecution even after Lerner herself apologized for targeting Tea Party groups. Those in government service who violate the law which is for the benefit of the government are NEVER prosecuted for their crimes.

Today, we have five “moderate” Republican senators who have unleashed the IRS once again to resume its biased political attacks of targeting people for tax evasion. These Republicans have signed off on the deal but they have betrayed their own party for allowing this to be covered up. The investigative news outlet ProPublica published a story based on a vast trove of leaked confidential tax data for the richest Americans. The IRS is at it again.

This is why the Founding Fathers prohibited direct taxation which Congress repealed in 1913.  Once you have direct taxation, they can bankrupt anyone by simply launching a massive tax investigation and your legal bills will go through the roof and they are doing it simply for political purposes. This is why I have been in favor of REPEALING the income tax and replace it with an indirect tax such as a national sales tax. They used the tax code to imprison Al Capone.

Alphonse Gabriel “Al” Capone rose to infamy as a gangster in Chicago during the 1920s and early 1930s.

The government prosecutors wanted Al Capone the same as people who want to hunt or fish and score a big one. They targeted Capone for everything and anything. Capone and his bodyguard were arrested in Philadelphia for carrying concealed deadly weapons and within less than one day they were sentenced to one year in prison without a public trial. Capone was released on March 17, 1930. Then on February 28, 1931, Capone was found guilty in federal court on a contempt of court charge and was sentenced to six months in Cook County Jail. His appeal was of course dismissed. There is no power more abused than the contempt of court charge where the person who accuses you then judges and sentences you without any independent observation.

The Department of Justice prosecutors, unable to bring a criminal case, called in the U.S. Treasury Department which developed a case for tax evasion. They used taxes to go after all the mobsters because they could not find any other evidence to prosecute them on. Therefore, they used tax evasion against Al Capone, his brother Ralph “Bottles” Capone, Jake “Greasy Thumb” Guzik, Frank Nitti, and other mobsters. Finally, on June 16, 1931, Al Capone was charged and pled guilty to tax evasion and prohibition charges based upon a deal for a two-and-a-half-year sentence.

However, the same presiding judge who sentenced Capone for contempt, James Herbert Wilkerson (1869–1948), informed Capone he was not bound by any such deal. Capone then changed his plea to not guilty. Wilkerson was not about to let Capone off easy despite the fact they could not charge him with a serious crime. The prohibition was repealed by FDR 2 years later. On October 18, 1931, Capone was convicted after a mock trial, and on November 24, Judge Wilkerson sentenced him to eleven years in federal prison, fined $50,000, and charged $7,692 for court costs, in addition to $215,000 plus interest due on back taxes. The six-month contempt of court sentence was at least served concurrently. Wilkerson hated Capone and made the case abuse of process carried out by a biased judge.

Capone was confined to the Cook County Jail and of course a political case of this nature had all appeals denied. Capone entered the U.S. Penitentiary in Atlanta, serving his sentence there, and was then transferred to the infamous Alcatraz. It was alleged that Capone was denied medical treatment which is really on par for high-profile cases. On November 16, 1939, Al Capone was released after having served seven years, six months, and fifteen days, and having paid all fines and back taxes. His health deteriorated greatly during his confinement. Immediately on release, Capone entered a Baltimore hospital for brain treatment. He was released and moved to his Florida home, an estate on Palm Island in Biscayne Bay near Miami. He never recovered and died with his family due to a stroke and pneumonia on January 25, 1947. Such is the fate of high-profile cases in America.

If it were not for the INCOME TAX, Al Capone would never have gone to prison. Even Prohibition was a failed experiment that actually made the Mafia. The Mafia was respected among the Italian community because they would even counterfeit food ratios during World War I to ensure the community was fed and did not starve.

It was making liquor illegal that created a profitable opportunity for the Mafia which in the United States was entirely different from that in Sicily. Indeed, in Sicily, the term “mafioso” had no criminal connotations and was used to refer to a person who was suspicious of central authority – an anti-government faction. During the 19th century, some of these groups emerged as private armies to protect the people from the government. This evolved where some began to extorted protection money from landowners to protect them from the corrupt government. Eventually, some factions became violent criminal organizations which turning the original protection into a means to extort money which then began the Sicilian Mafia. The American Mafia, however, did not rise to power until the prohibition and they too began as an admired protector of the people.

Dianne Feinstein lists $41M Lake Tahoe estate


Armstrong Economics Blog/Corruption Re-Posted Jun 28, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

I find it really amazing how these Democrats constantly preach fairness, equality and the rich are the blame for everything, yet people like Dianne Feinstein have just listed her $41M Lake Tahoe estate for sale. Their spouse is always extraordinarily lucky in deals that somehow connect back to political favors. Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s husband was named in the College Admissions Scandal. Her husband, Richard Blum, benefited from being involved with a company to sell United States Postal Service property. The company, CBRE Group, won a contract to sell postal facilities. Blum is its board chairman and owns an investment firm that holds an interest in its stock. The question has always been; did he get inside information and preferential treatment in what they called a competitive bid. In the real world, when my son was in college and getting just a summer job at a brokerage firm to learn the business, the entire family had to reveal what stocks they owned right down to my mother just to get a summer job. Politician’s families never reveal anything of that nature.

DianneDinane herself was employing a Chinese spy. There is never any accountability and nobody ever asks, how in the world do politicians have such wealth and they never worked in the private sector?

Predictably Bondo Barr Covers The Rot


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 27, 2021 | Sundance | 372 Comments

There has been a lot of discussion today about an Atlantic article [SEE HERE] containing an outline of former AG Bill Barr’s discussion with reporters and the White House in the aftermath of the 2020 election.  In essence the nub of the article is Bill Barr stating to a journalist December 1st: ” To date, we have not seen fraud on a scale that could have effected a different outcome in the election,” and then the article covers the fallout with the White House from that AP interview.

AG Barr called Michael Balsamo to his office in Main Justice to make the statement over lunch:

ATLANTIC – […] Balsamo’s story appeared on the AP newswire shortly after lunch ended: “Disputing Donald Trump’s persistent baseless claims, Attorney General William Barr declared Tuesday the U.S. Justice Department had uncovered no evidence of widespread voter fraud that could change the outcome of the 2020 election.”

The story blew a hole in the president’s claims. Nobody seriously questioned Barr’s conservative credentials or whether he had been among Trump’s most loyal cabinet secretaries. His conclusion sent a definitive message that the effort to overturn the election was without merit. (read more)

That last paragraph perfectly encapsulates the entire purpose for AG Bill Barr to be in place since February of 2019.  To present the image of a loyal cabinet secretary so that no-one could/would question his conservative credentials.   That purpose was exactly what CTH presented upon the nomination and confirmation of Bill Barr.  His job was to be the bondo that covered the rot in DC and gave the illusion of a healthy functioning justice department.  We called it “Bondo Barr“.

There is a specific irony of Bill Barr using Wayne County, Michigan, as “no evidence” of ballot fraud while simultaneously admitting no other area other than Wayne county has voting precincts that do not count ballots.  Only in Wayne county do the 662 precincts deliver ballots to a central counting facility.  The Wayne County process itself is designed specifically to make ballot fraud easier….  The former AG says move along, move along, nothing to see here… “that’s what they do.”

The timing of this article release to coincide with the DOJ challenging election reforms in Georgia, combined with the Arizona audit finishing up their initial hand recount and verification of ballots, does not seem coincidental.

As most CTH readers are aware the legislative, executive and judicial narrative engineers work in coordination with their media conscripts and at the behest of the intelligence apparatus.  In the private sector the BlackRock and Vanguard multinationals, and the CoC Wall Street, money builds the bridge to deliver the finished outcome.

Under this process the U.S. government is functioning exactly as it was designed when it was “fundamentally transformed”; the corrupt outcomes are a feature, not a flaw.

SEE also: AG Barr Blocked Declassification –

Rather than use this article to once again draw attention to the corrupt intents and purposes of Bill Barr as the professional bondo applier, it is worth taking a pause to think carefully about another angle.   Think about all those voices, specifically pundits in media, who stood up to say Bill Barr is a man of integrity and will be the person to get to the bottom of the ‘spygate‘ corruption issues.   Remind yourself of exactly who those voices were…. Then recognize the intent of that drumbeat.

That list would include: Trey Gowdy, Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Jonah Goldberg, Kevin McCarthy, Marco Rubio, Sean Hannity, Sara Carter, John Solomon, Mark Levin, Laura Ingraham, Johnathan Turley, Joe diGenova and Victoria Toensing etc. etc.

Days after his confirmation in 2019 CTH noted something was sketchy about Bill Barr because of a very simple and common sense issue – everyone in/around DC knew Robert Mueller was in place to cover-up the corrupt DOJ and FBI activity and keep attacking the office of President Trump.  Not a single person in DC did not know this intention of the special counsel.  They never talked about it publicly, but every person in every office and every agency in DC knew Mueller’s purpose.

In the first few weeks after his confirmation AG Bill Barr spent an extreme amount of time praising Robert Mueller for his work as special counsel and vouching for his integrity.  That continued praise for Mueller and Barr also heaping effusive praise on FBI Director Chris Wray, was when CTH accepted the brutally obvious, Bill Barr’s job was to apply Bondo to cover the rot.

“Every day we spend outraged about what the DOJ and FBI did in 2016 and 2017, is one less day that AG Bill Barr is not being held accountable for all of this current DOJ and FBI corruption that stares him in the face when he brushes his teeth each morning.” ~ CTH, 2019

Barr played that outrage distraction game perfectly…

Massive Street Protests Continue in London Against COVID Lockdown Rules


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 26, 2021 | Sundance | 51 Comments

Thousands of people descended on London’s Hyde Park on Saturday afternoon in the latest round of protests against Covid lockdown measures. The crowds marched through Oxford Street before gathering at Hyde Park while holding banners, placards and flags. The crowds of protesters (bottom left and bottom centre) marched through Oxford Street, Regent Street, Hyde Park and Northumberland Avenue as they held placards reading ‘freedom is not for trade’, ‘no to Covid vaccine’ and ‘no to the Covid passport’.

Demonstrators also made their way to Downing Street, with crowds setting off flares and chanting loudly with people heard shouting “shame on you” and pointing towards Number 10, followed by prolonged booing. Shirley Jones, a librarian from Crystal Palace, said: “I’d rather be doing something else with my weekend but I’m going to keep coming on these protests because I don’t trust what the Government is doing.

Club Moves, Pence and Haley Coordinating With Establishment GOP


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 26, 2021 | Sundance | 413 Comments

The one issue that frustrates me personally; amid the known deep weeds and moves of the RNC as a club and their vitriolic hatred for the Tea Party before and MAGA movement now; is why President Trump continues to express confidence in Ronna McDaniel.

Yes, there is always going to be intra-party factions within the Republican system as a whole.  However, the (at best) 10 to 20% of the club establishment, the Wall Street Multinational faction, are toxic to the objectives of restorative Americanism.  The club elites, and this includes current RNC head Ronna McDaniel, simply hate the vulgarian middle-class and the base of the movement.  Yet, for some unknown reason Donald Trump allows this to continue.

McDaniel is working against the interests of the MAGA base.  The head of the RNC does nothing to highlight demonstrable election fraud; she stands aside and watches as media frame an extremist narrative against the base of the party she is supposed to represent.  McDaniel does nothing to support the legal alliance needed to push back against election fraud; and worse yet she does nothing to support the recruitment of MAGA minded candidates to lead the middle-class working revolution against the corrupt political system.  Yet, amid these brutally obvious realities no-one ever seems to call it out.

Where is McDaniel in support of the Maricopa audit: or the Fulton County Georgia legal battle; or the Pennsylvania legislative effort to strengthen their legislative reform efforts?  Or closer to home, where was/is McDaniel when clear evidence of voting corruption exists in her home state of Michigan and Antrim County?   No-one except CTH ever seems to point out the total absence of the RNC support in these grassroot efforts to have secure and authentic elections.  WHY?

But this article really isn’t about McDaniel insofar as she is merely a representative -albeit stark- example of the brutally obvious issues within the false premise of the two party system…. the two club system.  CTH readers have an exhaustive library of specific facts, events, documents and statements that show how the club is operating against our interests; the example above is just a reminder to pause amid the granular fight and say “what a minute, where’s the damn RNC, ain’t this their job?”

Here’s the rub.  The RNC club has a visible set of priorities and an invisible set of standards that apply only to the top donor class, the BlackRock Republicans within the party, and they work intentionally and willfully to keep those standards and priorities clouded from the electoral base.  The RNC actively works against our interests, and yet so many within the MAGA community cannot see it, even though they feel it… they know it to be true, but they cannot accept it.

Let me give you an example of how the “club” is quietly operating using Mike Pence and Nikki Haley as an example and a warning.

You might remember a few months ago when former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley said:

…“I don’t think [Trump’s] going to be in the picture,” she said, matter-of-factly. “I don’t think he can. He’s fallen so far.” […] “We need to acknowledge he let us down,” she said. “He went down a path he shouldn’t have, and we shouldn’t have followed him, and we shouldn’t have listened to him. And we can’t let that ever happen again.”  (link)

Yet yesterday the conniving creature of the club said the exact opposite in an effort to get back into position of influence.

WEST DES MOINES, Iowa — Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley reaffirmed her support for former President Donald Trump in a speech Thursday night, just months after flaying him for his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot and predicting that his political career was finished.

The potential 2024 presidential candidate lavished praise on Trump during an evening appearance before the Iowa Republican Party’s Lincoln Dinner, a major party gathering in the all-important, first-in-the-nation caucus state. (more)

Don’t miss the motive here.  The people behind the club are positioning Nikki Haley and Mike Pence as a defense against MAGA.  They do not care about winning the election in 2022, 2024 or any other election.  What they care about is their money and power.  They want to retain their Wall Street and Multinational investment programs to keep their wealth growing and remain atop the pyramid.

Both Nikki Haley and Mike Pence are tools for the Wall Street class of republicans, the $8 trillion BlackRock investment class to retain wealth and power.  They are positioning to take down Trump and then step in to grab the flag and keep the base from recognizing their deceptive agenda.  Haley and Pence support the DOJ and current federal government effort to destroy Donald J Trump and by extension the MAGA movement.

At the same time Haley is delivering her conniving Brutus speech to the Iowa audience, her comrade in arms is delivering a similar message to an audience in California.

These are evil, yes I said that word “evil” conniving people.  These are not allies aligned with an earnest middle class fight against the elitist system that controls the levers of power.  These are the gaslighting foot-soldiers for the same system that wants to see us destroyed.  WATCH Pence:

“The presidency belongs to the American people and the American people alone and I will always be proud that we did our part on that tragic day to reconvene the Congress and fulfilled our duty under the Constitution…There’s more at stake than our party and our political fortunes in this moment. If we lose faith in the Constitution, we won’t just lose elections. We will lose our country. So now more than ever, America needs the Republican Party to be the party of the Constitution.”

From the tailgate of a pickup truck while I remain unwashed with dirty fingernails I swear you this: “I despise these people with the heat of a thousand supernovas.”  They are the most vile and Machiavellian manipulators within our nation. They are no different than Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer and any other breed of self-indulgent political class that defines themselves by the affluence they gain from the backs of the American middle-class.

In another day and age they would be covered in hot tar and feathers and ridiculed out of town… alas, today we watch the audience clap like seals while shaking our head at the insufferable stupidity of our brothers and sisters not to be able to see the scheme for what it is.

Eight years ago CTH spent almost two years following, tracking and researching their RNC club moves.  We had sources and moles all around them in every meeting.

Six years ago CTH outlined the playbook they use to control election outcomes and we specifically mapped out the ‘splitter strategy‘ they would deploy, AGAIN, to execute their scheme.  In 2016 they triggered every single tripwire we predicted in the exact and specific sequence we outlined they would…. And I am telling you right now,…

….the Club is at it again.

No F**king Quarter!

The Fascism of the Left Has Infiltrated All levels of Government


Armstrong Economics Blog/Revolution Re-Posted Jun 26, 2021 by Martin Armstrong

This becomes a fight for the very principles on which the United States was founded. People have infiltrated government at every level and believe they have a right to censor and moot all dissent. This is not what America stood for, and this is clearly why the computer will be right — the only solution will become a civil war. It is fascinating how the computer has forecasted this trend, and I personally wish it had been wrong. But I am only the wide-eyed observer in this dance with destiny.

Former Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin Sentenced to 22½ years in Death of George Floyd


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 25, 2021 | Sundance | 212 Comments

Former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin was sentenced today to 22½ years in prison after being found guilty in the 2020 murder of George Floyd. (Story Here) Prior to the sentencing Derek Chauvin made a brief, and seemingly cryptic, statement.

Odd Stuff:

Derek Chauvin lived in the same house for over a decade.

No-one in the neighborhood knew he was a police officer.

The immediate neighbors (7 years) didn’t know he was a cop.

Chauvin never once drove a police vehicle home.

No-one ever Chauvin in a police uniform.

In addition to being a police officer, Chauvin worked at a dance club as security.

Chauvin worked at the club for 14 years while also being a police officer.

George Floyd also worked at the club, also as security.

The club, El Nuevo Rodeo, had a sketchy ownership background.

Coincidentally El Nuevo Rodeo was one of the first buildings burned to the ground in the “riots”.

The prosecution never called the club owner as a witness.

The defense never mentioned the relationship.

George Floyd was busted for passing a counterfeit $20 (that was the reason for the call to police).

Just weird…. nothing more.

DOJ Announces a Lawsuit Against The State of Georgia For Demanding Voting Integrity in Elections – Feds Fearful States Will Deconstruct Election Fraud


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 25, 2021 | Sundance | 304 Comments

The U.S. Department of Justice has announced a lawsuit against the State of Georgia, the Georgia Legislature and the people of Georgia in order to stop any election reform that will deconstruct decades of carefully assembled election fraud. [DOJ Announcement Here]

Georgia is very important to the corrupt agents within federal institutions.  The leftist activists have worked methodically to use Georgia as a key battleground in their efforts to continue manipulating election outcomes.

The DOJ is worried, very worried, that as people wake up to the scale of election fraud perpetrated upon this nation more states will begin enacting laws that will block voter fraud.

The DOJ civil rights division does not want their gains in Georgia to be lost in the same way those , schemes collapsed in Florida over the past four years.  Strong laws that require voter ID to verify the validity of a person to vote are antithetical to the fraud Washington DC needs in order to control the U.S. government.

The issue of voter ID is a critical one that gets conflated by parseltongue words intended to confuse the issue. The issue of voter ID is NOT about proving “who you are“; the issue of voter ID is “proving you are eligible to vote“.

Erosion of state requirements for valid and authentic voter ID has made the challenge more difficult. Ex. a driver’s license is NOT proof that you are eligible to vote. A utility bill or some arbitrary document is NO proof of that either. To be eligible to vote you have to provide a legal: (1) Birth certificate, or (2) A Certificate of Naturalization, or (3) a voter ID which was obtained with one of the above. Voter ID is not proving who you are; voter ID is proving you are lawfully eligible to vote. There is a big difference.

The DOJ does not want to see people having to prove they are lawfully eligible to vote, that is the essence of the lawsuit against Georgia – and that will be the essence of every lawsuit of a similar nature.

(DOJ ANNOUNCEMENT) – The U.S. Justice Department announced today that it filed a lawsuit against the State of Georgia, the Georgia Secretary of State, and the Georgia State Election Board over recent voting procedures adopted by Georgia Senate Bill 202, which was signed into law in March 2021. The United States’ complaint challenges provisions of Senate Bill 202 under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.

[…] The United States’ complaint challenges several provisions of Senate Bill 202, including a provision banning government entities from distributing unsolicited absentee ballot applications; the imposition of costly and onerous fines on civic organizations, churches and advocacy groups that distribute follow-up absentee ballot applications; the shortening of the deadline to request absentee ballots to 11 days before Election Day; the requirement that voters who do not have identification issued by the Georgia Department of Driver Services photocopy another form of identification in order to request an absentee ballot without allowing for use of the last four digits of a social security number for such applications; significant limitations on counties’ use of absentee ballot drop boxes; the prohibition on efforts by churches and civic groups to provide food or water to persons waiting in long lines to vote; and the prohibition on counting out-of-precinct provisional ballots cast before 5 p.m. on Election Day. The complaint asks the court to prohibit Georgia from enforcing these requirements.

Pay attention to this next part:

[…] Deputy Attorney General Lisa O. Monaco also issued a memo to United States Attorneys and FBI Field Offices today on investigating and prosecuting threats to election officials. To assist with this important effort the department will also establish an intra-Departmental task force to address the rising threats. (read more)

As we have mentioned previously, the United States Department of Justice is prepared to use federal law enforcement (FBI) to secure their position.  The purpose of this announcement should be crystal clear to everyone.  We discussed and outlined the background previously.  {Go Deep 1} and {Go Deep Two}

In the background of these maneuvers Big Tech and Corporate Media have been instructed to push the “domestic extremist” narrative; and any truth-tellers are considered subversive, ie. against the interests of the U.S. government.  The January 6th DC protest is being used as evidence for that narrative. Deplatforming, censorship and ultimately control of voices who would warn of the larger issues continues daily.

Let me be very clear… stop and hear the drums… Something is about to happen.  Approximately 100 million American voters are considered dissidents now.

The FBI is preparing for the American people to realize, perhaps reluctantly, and then implement the grassroot solution to deal with a corrupt federal government; a solution I would call “extreme federalism”.

The solution to the scale of DC corruption is local and state action using the constitution, specifically the 10th amendment, against the advancing overreach of corrupt DC officials. Extreme federalism is local and state government refusing to comply, totally ignoring, unconstitutional demands by the federal government. This approach can become visible in varying degrees of intensity.  State laws protecting voting integrity is only one facet.

Beyond simple legislative push-back, imagine if the State of Texas refused to facilitate any task for the border visit by Kamala Harris. No Texas state trooper escorts, no security, no facilitation once the White House entourage exits the airport. Extreme federalism is the intentional use of the state right provisions outlined within the constitution to stop facilitating federal offices of any form or function.

Imagine if FBI field offices were forced to close by state action taking back ownership of the property by eminent domain. Imagine if state national guard elements were instructed not to comply with federal requests for support. Extreme federalism is local sheriffs, constitutional officers, rebuking unconstitutional decrees and refusing to comply with federal agencies.

Extreme federalism is executed along the same concept of “sanctuary cities” or “sanctuary states” defying federal law.  However, extreme federalism is the reverse scenario where the unconstitutional efforts are identified by states who create sanctuaries for law-abiding citizens who forcefully demand representative government and self-determination.

Extreme federalism is a reaffirmation of the original intent of the United States constitution, and we do not need F-15s and nuclear weapons to achieve it.  What we need is strong–will, brave state-level leadership and unrelenting citizen determination.

John McAfee Didn’t Kill Himself


Posted originally on GrrrGraphics.com on JUN 24, 2021 AT 6:58 PM

And Neither did Epstein..

Another mega millionaire has allegedly committed suicide in prison. John McAfee was found dead in his jail cell, but the details remain sketchy. The libertarian rebel made it clear many times—he would never kill himself. He even had a tattoo testifying to that. Yet he is gone and the question is, what will his ‘kill switch’ reveal? Apparently the ‘Q’ that was posted on Instagram contain coding that might be key to unlock that switch.

Will information be revealed that shows us the evil that is being done by the ruling elite? In my opinion it’s unlikely. If McAfee could have revealed the truth about what’s going on by the global elitists, why didn’t he do it already? Obviously the oligarchs weren’t afraid of the kill switch. They wanted him whacked in Spain. Killing him as soon as he landed in an American prison cell would have been too obvious.

We don’t really need the kill switch to know what’s going on. We already know. They know we know. Like Solzhenitsyn once said, “They lie to us, we know they’re lying, they know we know they’re lying, but they keep lying to us, and we keep pretending to believe them.” In the Soviet Union you had to pretend or face a gulag assignment. Or a bullet to the back of the head. In America, we still have a few vestiges of freedom left, so don’t believe them—and speak out against them! McAfee was killed for speaking out to some degree, but they can’t whack all of us.

God protect Julian Assange!

Judge Delivers Ruling in Fulton County, Georgia, Ballot Audit


Posted originally on the conservative tree house on June 24, 2021 | Sundance | 85 Comments

One step forward; however, in the longer term I fear this is two steps back…  The next lawfare chess move looks transparent, but maybe I’m wrong.

In the Atlanta ballot lawsuit Henry County Superior Court Chief Judge Brian Amero has granted the ability of Fulton county, the county elections board, and county courts clerk, as offices, to be removed as defendants in the lawsuit filed by Garland Favorito and nine plaintiffs. However, Judge Amero kept the lawsuit alive by granting the plaintiffs’ request to add individual members of the county board of elections as respondents.

The problem this presents is transparent. The next move by Lawfare lawyers representing opposition to the case will be for each of the individual members to now claim sovereign immunity as none of their specifically individual actions will be identified as contributing to any ballot fraud. This level of legal confidence seems present in the defense statements after the ruling was released:

“Don Samuel, an attorney for the Fulton elections board, said he planned to file motions to dismiss the claims against the board members because there are no allegations they had a role in counting the county’s ballots.” (link)

Favorito released a statement showing confidence in the result.  However, CTH is not so sure.

(link to VoterGA)

Perhaps the plaintiff lawyers have a good argument to focus on the individual board members, but in my experience any petition therein would have to show direct evidence linking a specific person to the specific harm claimed by the plaintiff.

If the Fulton County board of elections is not responsible for the way the ballot counting was handled, it seems challenging to identify a specific member of that board who would be responsible.  I’m not a lawyer, but that’s the way the defense argument seems to be framed.

The bottom line in this private civil lawsuit is the harm needs to be identified in order for the discovery, the actual inspection of the 147,000 absentee ballots, to be conducted.  The plaintiff is alleging harm based on the sworn depositions of election workers.  However, the defense is telling the court that a specific person will need to be identified as responsible for the alleged fraud the election workers are claiming to have witnessed.  This is a typical Lawfare catch-22.

The solution for this is obviously the Georgia Senate ordering an audit of those ballots via a legislative subpoena.  However, it doesn’t appear the Georgia legislature has taken any steps toward that goal.

I may be wrong, but I am less optimistic now than before.
