Former Acting Director of National Intelligence, Richard “Ric” Grenell, discusses his own experience within Nevada with officials who would not allow evidence to be gathered.  As Grenell states in the interview: “The whole idea we are not providing evidence, is because they [corrupt officials] control the actual physical evidence.”

Now that the Deep State has successfully carried out their coup to remove Trump ensuring even the Supreme Court has buckled under to the Deep State and abandoned the Constitution. Every Justice takes an oath to defend the Constitution yet they are able to ignore it claiming “discretion” to decide to defend it or not! They have violated the Constitution and 74 million Americans who have been denied their civil right interest in the election while assisting the launch of Communism 3.0. The IRS is already planning to boost audits by 50%, not of the BigTechs, but small businesses.

So here we go – expect the government to turn against anyone at the top of the tax brackets as well. The hatred of the “rich” will be attacked while they champion the select super-rich. We will see 2021 into 2022 as the worst we have ever seen in class warfare. After a year that has targeted small business and a Congress which has ignored the small businesses as if they are the anti-Christ of Capitalism while cheering that BigTech firms and allowing them to go into banking using lockdowns to force commerce into online, one must wonder how Congress is representing the people anymore.

About 70% of employment was provided by small businesses. No longer will there be higher-paying sales jobs – just warehouse workers to fill online orders and even they are being replaced by cheaper robots. The sheer hatred of small businesses in Washington cannot be expressed enough and mainstream media will never report the truth. It is the big businesses that but the tax exemptions so to fulfill their class warfare promises, they will attack the small businesses. They imprison small company officers under the pretense of security fraud yet NEVER prosecute even one banker – ever! MF Global stole their client’s money and Federal Bankruptcy Judge Martin Glenn refused to comply with the bankruptcy law to protect the bankers.

Small Business has become the enemy of the Democrats because the Agenda is indeed 2030. California will become the most anti-business state in the nation. Most Democrats are clueless even in political circles. There are people who know what is really taking place and are very upset even within the Democratic Party which has been hijacked by the new Triumvirate. Soros has been working overtime with his son to seize the Democratic Party and direct it into his dream state – the open society which does not tolerate independent business.

Today, Amazon has more than 200,000 mobile robots working inside its warehouse network, alongside hundreds of thousands of human workers. This robot army has helped the company fulfill its ever-increasing promises of speedy deliveries to Amazon Prime customers. Then they will eliminate truck drivers as well. In other words, wipe out small businesses, make people dependent upon welfare checks they now call Guaranteed Basic Income and restrict population growth to reduce the population to match the new communist state.

I have warned that the Democrats intentionally manipulated the black community by appearing to support their “Defund the Police” movement. Now that the Democrats returned control of the House, they suddenly rejected the “Defund the Police” movement. This is what I am talking about with respect to why Republics are so corrupt and worse than even a dictatorship or monarchy. The other forms of government do not pretend to care; they just exist. Republics are historically the most corrupt form of government, for they lie about everything to win seats and then do as they like, assuming the people are too stupid to remember the last time.

In 2015 and 2016 candidate Donald J Trump was able to break through the controls of the Republican party apparatus by gathering overwhelming grassroots support and then not backing down from the internal fight with the elites.  The Trump movement is based on a non-special interest, color-blind and large coalition of middle-class workers and American patriots who want to see the best interests of our nation supersede all other issues.

Despite a similar populist style, albeit clouded with larger government intervention, what Donald Trump did with the RNC candidate Bernie Sanders refused to do with the DNC.

Yesterday a recent poll of GOP voters was released by Rasmussen.  The results show 72% of republican voters want the Republican party to remain focused on the America-First MAGA message that lies at the heart of the movement.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 72% of Likely Republican Voters think their party should be more like Trump than like the average GOP member of Congress. Twenty-four percent (24%) see the average Republican in Congress as a better model.  (more)

Earlier today Missouri Senator Josh Hawley announced his intent to challenge the January 6th congressional certification of the electors.  A group of approximately 30 House representatives, led by Mo Brooks,  will be challenging from the lower chamber.

This sets up a dynamic where formal electoral challenges from both chambers of congress will be taking place based on evidence of election fraud in several key states.  The objection will initiate a debate and roll-call vote to certify electors within both the House and Senate.  Vice-President Mike Pence will preside over the debate in the Senate.

A combination of The Guarantee Clause (constitution) and the Electoral Count Act of 1887 (law), establishes the framework for some to argue a fraudulent 2020 election result can successfully be challenged during congressional certification on January 6, 2021. Thus five state legislatures -under Republican control- have sent dual-sets of electors to congress: Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, Georgia and Pennsylvania.

[Article IV – Sec.4] The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

“The Guarantee Clause” – “At its core, the Guarantee Clause provides for majority rule. A republican government is one in which the people govern through elections. This is the constant refrain of the Federalist Papers. Alexander Hamilton, for example, put it this way in The Federalist No. 57: “The elective mode of obtaining rulers is the characteristic policy of republican government.” [citation]  “The Clause requires the United States to prevent any state from imposing rule by monarchy, dictatorship, aristocracy, or permanent military rule, even through majority vote. Instead, governing by electoral processes is constitutionally required.”

Let us be clear… There is little framework for this type of constitutional issue. This is  uncharted territory, and consequently there is no body of law or case study upon which to apply a historic reference.   However, that said, the issue of Director of National Intelligence, John Ratcliffe, producing a report about foreign election interference could be a fulcrum issue upon which “The Guarantee Clause” of the constitution may apply.

Here’s where it gets interesting….  The Guarantee Clause puts the jurisdiction in the hands of the political bodies, executive branch and legislative branch, to decide the merit of any state vulnerability in their election outcome.   There is little, if any, place for the judicial branch to play a role.

In Luther v. Borden (1849), the Supreme Court held questions involving the Guarantee Clause nonjusticiable, meaning that any remedy for a violation would lie with Congress or the President, not the federal judiciary. Nearly one hundred years later, the Court sweepingly declared that the guarantee of a republican form of government cannot be challenged in court. Colegrove v. Green (1946). (citation)

The federal government, not the state government, ultimately holds the responsibility to protect the entire United States from foreign interference within the Guarantee Clause. This would seem to apply to foreign election interference.  “[B]ecause protection against invasion or domestic violence is normally available only from Congress and the President, the structure of this section suggests that the political branches have at least the primary duty to carry out its obligations.”

If DNI Ratcliffe produces a report (prior to January 6th) that outlines foreign interference in the election; and if the argument can be made the states with the contested (dual sets) of electors were subjects/targets of that interference; then a foundation to nullify the electors from the contested states is laid in congress.

In this approach the electoral nullification argument would appear to rest on The Guarantee Clause; where the state election outcome was not valid – as it is not representative of a republican form of government, and the majority vote requirement was manipulated.

If this type of legislative challenge was to take place, there is little precedent for the judicial branch to be involved except to qualify what role The Guarantee Clause would/could play and to what extent the nullification arguments are constitutionally valid.

Again, this is all uncharted territory.  However, there are people claiming this process could work to keep President Trump in office.   The disqualification of the contested state electors under this argument would ultimately fall upon Vice President Mike Pence who is also President of the Senate and in charge of the January 6th electoral vote certification.

There is a lot of “if-this-then” etc within this framework, and all of it ultimately is predicated on congress challenging the election (now appears likely); and VP Mike Pence then deciding which electors would be certified or nullified (long-shot); but that seems to be the argument some are making.

Immediately after Senator Hawley made his announcement, incredibly the multinational retail corporation Wal Mart responded via twitter with a snarky reply.

Good grief, it is stunning that Walmart would allow such a response.   I will never step foot in their store ever again.
