Trump Releases New Statement On 2020 Election

More than six months after Election Day, former President Donald Trump revisited the subject of the 2020 presidential contest on Saturday with a blazing trio of statements.

“As our Country is being destroyed, both inside and out, the Presidential Election of 2020 will go down as THE CRIME OF THE CENTURY!” Trump posted on his website.

Trump also cited a Wall Street Journal story headlined “Trump-Biden Was Worst Presidential Polling Miss in 40 Years” that said polling overstated support for Democrats, including President Joe Biden. (Read more from “Trump Releases New Statement On 2020 Election” HERE)

How Palm Beach Is Preparing For A Possible Trump Indictment; Florida Officials Are Preparing ‘Contingency Plans’

By Politico. Law enforcement officials in Palm Beach County, Fla., have actively prepared for the possibility that Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance could indict former President Donald Trump while he’s at Mar-a-Lago, according to two high-ranking county officials involved in planning sessions.

Among the topics discussed in those meetings: how to handle the thorny extradition issues that could arise if an indictment moves forward.

An obscure clause in Florida’s statute on interstate extradition gives Gov. Ron Desantis the ability to intervene and even investigate whether an indicted “person ought to be surrendered” to law enforcement officials from another state — which means that as Mar-a-Lago prepares to close down for the season and Trump relocates to Bedminster, N.J., it isn’t just the Florida heat he’s leaving behind: He could lose a key piece of political protection.

“The statute leaves room for interpretation that the governor has the power to order a review and potentially not comply with the extradition notice,” says Joe Abruzzo, clerk of the Circuit Court of Palm Beach County, the official who would be in charge of opening a potential fugitive-at-large case.

Florida Officials Are Preparing ‘Contingency Plans’ For A Trump Indictment From New York, Report Says

By Business Insider. As the Manhattan district attorney’s criminal investigation into former President Donald Trump enters its final stages, officials in Florida are preparing for “thorny extradition issues that could arise” from a statute in the Sunshine State, Politico Playbook first reported on Thursday.

Two officials involved in the “contingency plans” told Politico that law-enforcement personnel in Palm Beach County were looking at what to do if Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr.’s investigation results in an indictment while Trump is at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. . .

If Trump were indicted while in New Jersey, extradition issues could prove less tricky because the state is led by Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy, who would likely be less sympathetic to the one-term president.

Trump has repeatedly claimed that his perceived political foes are out to get him after his presidency and has expressed concern about several ongoing federal and state criminal investigations into his financial dealings. Insider previously reported that Trumpworld was largely shrugging off the Justice Department’s investigation into the Capitol riot but saw more danger in Vance’s inquiry and a separate investigation by the Fulton County District Attorney’s Office in Georgia.

The New York investigation is examining whether the Trump Organization violated state laws when it facilitated hush-money payments to the adult-film actress Stormy Daniels, who said she had an affair with Trump in 2006. Vance’s office secured a major victory earlier this year when the Supreme Court cleared the way for it to obtain Trump’s closely held tax returns.

Trump Lashes Out As Senior Republicans Threaten To Form New Party

Donald Trump lashed out as more than 150 senior Republicans threatened to form a new party if the GOP doesn’t disown him.

The new group is being led by Trump-critics Evan McMullin and Miles Taylor and is calling for a major reform of the party. . .

Mr Trump took to his recently launched blog to attack Mr Taylor and the new group.

“He is a phony who will probably be sued over his fake book and fake ‘Anonymous’ editorial, which caused so much treasonous stir,” wrote Mr Trump.

“Miles Taylor and his fellow RINO losers like Tom Ridge, Christine Todd Whitman, and Crazy Barbara Comstock voted for Biden, and now look what they have — a socialist regime with collapsing borders, massive tax and regulation hikes, unrest in the Middle East, and long gas lines.

100 Former GOP Officials: Dump Trump Or We’ll Start A New Republican Party

More than 100 former Republican officials threatened to create a new political party if the Republican Party remains with former President Donald Trump, Reuters reported.

The letter, titled “A Call For American Renewal,” was expected to be released Thursday. Beyond discussing the creation of a third party, the letter will go after Trump’s false claims of a stolen election, according to Reuters.

The group first threatened to create a new political party in February in the wake of the Capitol Riot and Trump’s second impeachment, Reuters noted. One of the groups organizers, former Chief of Staff in the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Miles Taylor, said, “The Republican Party is broken. It’s time for a resistance of the ‘rationals’ against the ‘radicals.’” . . .

Other former Republican officials that backed Taylor’s group included a number of former President George W. Bush appointees, such as former DHS Secretary Tom Ridge, former Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Christine Todd Whitman, and former Bush Transportation Secretary Mary Peters among them, Reuters reported.

Biden State Department Sympathizes With Palestine After Hamas Attack; Trump: Palestinian Rocket Attacks on Israel Provoked by Joe Biden’s ‘Weakness’

By Breitbart. State Department spokesman Ned Price told reporters on Tuesday he witnessed photos of Palestinian children killed amid a barrage of rocket fire from Hamas, and a response from the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), and “hard not to look at those pictures and feel a sense of the suffering.”

Price, speaking at his regular press briefing, called for “restraint and de-escalation in an effort to preserve life,” according to the Times of Israel.

“Reports of civilian deaths are something that we regret and would like to come to a stop. We don’t want to see provocations,” Price said. “The provocations we have seen have resulted in a deeply lamentable loss of life.”

“We call for restraint and for calm. Israel has the right to defend itself and to respond to rocket attacks,” Price said. “The Palestinian people also have the right to safety and security, just as Israelis do.” (Read more from “Biden State Department Sympathizes With Palestine After Hamas Attack” HERE)

Donald Trump: Palestinian Rocket Attacks on Israel Provoked by Joe Biden’s ‘Weakness’

By Breitbart. Former President Donald Trump released a statement condemning the Biden administration for showing “weakness and lack of support for Israel” amid Palestinian terror raids.

“When I was in office we were known as Peace Presidency, because Israel’s adversaries know that the United States stood strongly with Israel and there would be swift retribution if Israel was attacked,” the statement reads.

Trump explained, “Under Biden, the world is getting more violent and more unstable because Biden’s weakness and lack of support for Israel is leading to new attacks on our allies.” . . .

Trump concluded by slamming Democrats who “continue to stand by crazed anti-America Rep. Ilhan Omar, and others, who savagely attack Israel while they are under terrorist assault.”

‘Bombshell’: ‘Phantom Votes’ Emerge in 2020 Election Lawsuit

The Michigan county embroiled in controversy when it counted thousands of votes for Joe Biden that were cast for Donald Trump isn’t out of the woods yet: A judge has been told that 1,061 “phantom votes” have been found there.

Officials in Republican-majority Antrim County initially reported voters chose Joe Biden in the the 2020 presidential race. But tabulation errors were discovered and Trump was shown to be the winner. State and county officials blamed the proble on human error, but two local citizens have filed a lawsuit contending the Dominion Voting Systems machines used in the tabulation could have been used to manipulate the election.

The Washington Examiner reports attorney Matthew DePerno, representing Antrim County resident William Bailey, told County Circuit Judge Kevin Elsenheimer during a virtual hearing on Monday that a recount in December tallied 15,962 ballots. However, the Michigan secretary of state’s database shows only 14,901 votes were cast. That means 1,061 don’t exist on voter rolls.

The defendants in the lawsuit, including Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, insist Bailey has no right to sue. (Read more from “‘Bombshell’: ‘Phantom Votes’ Emerge in 2020 Election Lawsuit” HERE)

Campaign Against 2020 Presidential Ballot Recount Escalates

The Associated Press has characterized the Arizona state Senate’s audit of 2020 presidential election ballots in Maricopa County as an effort prompted by the “fraud fantasies” of Republicans.

The AP said the audit is “ground zero for former President Donald Trump and a legion of his supporters who have refused to accept his loss in Arizona or in other battleground states.”

But libertarian activist and political commentator Wayne Root argued the “over-reaction” by media and Democrats is a sign that they know something was amiss in an election in which Joe Biden’s victory in six battleground states has been contested.

“The fix is in. It’s crystal clear to me now, not only was the election rigged, but so is the post-election. It’s simple psychology,” he said.

“Just look at the absurd reaction, or over-reaction by Democrats. Would anyone dare ban the right to discuss a possible racist police killing? Can you imagine the reaction by liberals, black activists and the ACLU? What if the Minneapolis police permanently banned any discussion of the George Floyd death? What if every black American who tried to give their opinion on Twitter, Facebook or YouTube was banned for life? (Read more from “Campaign Against 2020 Presidential Ballot Recount Escalates” HERE)

Here’s How You Know Democrats Rigged and Stole the 2020 Election

. . .Guess what? That’s equivalent to the reaction (or, should I say, overreaction) of liberals, Democrats and assorted socialists and communists when Republicans make accusations of massive voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

I thought we’re all allowed to have our opinion in America. I thought we have free speech. I thought we have a right to investigate. I thought we have a right to see the videotapes. I thought we have a right to forensic audits. . .

The fix is in. It’s crystal clear to me now that not only was the election rigged but so is everything post-election. It’s simple psychology. Just look at the absurd reaction, or overreaction, by Democrats.

Would anyone dare ban the right to discuss a possibly racist police killing? Can you imagine the reaction by liberals, black activists and the American Civil Liberties Union? What if the Minneapolis police were to permanently ban any discussion of George Floyd’s death? What if every black American trying to give his or her opinion on Twitter, Facebook or YouTube were banned for life?

Who would react like that? Only guilty people. (Read more from “Here’s How You Know Democrats Rigged and Stole the 2020 Election” HERE)

Trump Rips Pence, ‘Gutless’ McConnell and ‘Warmonger’ Cheney in Blistering Statement

Former President Donald Trump released a statement Wednesday criticizing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, Rep. Liz Cheney and former Vice President Mike Pence, and blamed them for his 2020 election loss.

“Warmonger Liz Cheney, who has virtually no support left in the Great State of Wyoming, continues to unknowingly and foolishly say that there was no Election Fraud in the 2020 Presidential Election when in fact, the evidence, including no Legislative approvals as demanded by the U.S. Constitution, shows the exact opposite,” Trump said in a statement on his newly launched communications platform. . .

“Had Mike Pence referred the information on six states (only need two) back to State Legislatures, and had gutless and clueless MINORITY Leader Mitch McConnell (he blew two seats in Georgia that should have never been lost) fought to expose all of the corruption that was presented at the time, with more found since,” Trump said, “we would have had a far different Presidential result, and our Country would not be turning into a socialist nightmare!” (Read more from “Trump Rips Pence, ‘Gutless’ McConnell and ‘Warmonger’ Cheney in Blistering Statement” HERE)

Facebook Oversight Board Makes Decision on Trump Ban; Facebook’s ‘Independent’ Board Stocked With Trump Haters; Decision Shows Company Was Out To Get Him

By Townhall. Facebook’s oversight board voted to uphold a ban on former President Donald Trump’s ability to post content to his Facebook page, as well as his Instagram account. The decision was made on January 7, following the riot at the United States Capitol carried out by supporters of the president.

The indeterminate ban was triggered by a video posted by Trump in which he echoed the claim that the 2020 election was stolen, but told the protesters at the Capitol to “go home.” On account of violating the platform’s standards, the board agreed to suspend Trump’s pages “indefinitely and for at least the next two weeks until the peaceful transition of power is complete,” ahead of President Joe Biden’s inauguration.

The board determined that Trump’s ability to post content should remain suspended for 6 months following the January 7 decision, and left the door open for reinstatement. (Read more from “Facebook Oversight Board Makes Decision on Trump Ban” HERE)

Facebook’s ‘Independent’ Board Stocked With Trump Haters

By New York Post. What do you get if you cross a former Danish prime minister, someone who once edited the left-wing Guardian newspaper, a Yemini activist, a bunch of law professors and a Pakistani digital rights advocate? The predictable banning of Donald Trump.

Those are just some of the members of the Facebook Oversight Board, a kind of social media Supreme Court, one the left has already packed. Yesterday, the group extended the banning of Trump from Facebook for six months, urging the company to come up with guidelines that would extend his censoring. Considering how central Facebook can be to political fundraising and outreach, not to mention news, exiling Trump is no small matter. It is meddling with democracy.

Facebook suggests this 20-member group is “independent,” but that’s a farce. . .

Co-chair Jamal Greene, a Columbia Law professor, has tweeted “The transparency of Trump’s unfitness means, almost tautologically, that a big chunk of his supporters are conspiracy-minded.”

Nighat Dad, a lawyer and “internet activist” in Pakistan, had this to say. “Mr Trump FYI Pakistan is soon going to enact Transgender Protection Act 2017. Sorry America sad to see what kind of country you have become.” (Read more from “Facebook’s ‘Independent’ Board Stocked With Trump Haters” HERE)

Facebook’s ‘Oversight’ Decision Backing Trump Ban Shows Company Was Out To Get Him

By New York Post. Facebook’s handpicked Oversight Board just told the social-media giant that it was OK to suspend President Donald Trump’s account, but it can’t leave the issue in limbo forever — and gave the company six more months to decide whether to make the ban permanent, set a specific “Facebook jail” sentence or let him back.

In other words: Come up with a policy to justify banning Trump, because your stated policies don’t.

The world’s biggest social network said it suspended Trump’s account, with its 35 million followers and 24 million on sister platform Instagram, for “actively fomenting a violent insurrection.” But the company clearly had it in for the former president, using the riot as a pretext to silence him.

Notably, there was no danger of violent insurrection in March, when Facebook pulled an interview with Trump from his daughter-in-law Lara Trump’s page, saying content “in the voice” of Trump was banned, too.
