										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most Americans STILL don&#8217;t know that leftist Democrat activists and federal employees <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2022/05/15/2020-the-insurrection-that-wasnt-only-because-the-left-got-their-way/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">actively plotted to overthrow the government</a> if Donald Trump was reelected by The People. This, by far, was more insidious that anything that was &#8220;planned&#8221; and/or carried out on January 6th.</p>

<p>Here&#8217;s the PROOF in their own words&#8230;.</p>
<p><iframe class="rumble" src="https://rumble.com/embed/v3j9x9o/?pub=6btuj" width="750" height="421" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Resist-2.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-15855 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Resist-2-150x103.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="103" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Resist-2-150x103.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Resist-2-768x525.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Resist-2.jpg 800w" sizes="(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>NONE of the above footage has been shared on Fox News, CNN, ABC News, CBS News, NBC News, MSNBC, PBS, NPR, The New York Times, the Washington Post, Politico, The Hill, the Daily Beast, Huffington Post, Teen Vogue, or any other media entity. Had these been #MAGA Republicans and conservatives within the federal government, the headlines would have been deafening and the DOJ would be quite busy rounding up genuine insurrectionists. Had these liberal Democrats been pushed to launch their self-described &#8220;coup&#8221; against the Trump Administration, who knows what kind of carnage would have been unleashed upon the nation from Election Day on.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>It is classic Russian technique to blame on the other guy what they&#8217;re planning to do themselves.</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #333399;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/aYSkNtUBjsw?si=0k46QhPB6absiSX5&amp;t=2889" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Victoria Nuland, Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs, 3/8/22</a></p>
<p>The &#8220;Summer of 2020&#8221; would have been a mild pretext to the death and destruction that would have ensued.</p>
<p>So, what&#8217;s to say these same people are not preparing for Election Day 2024? To date, NONE of them have been arrested and charged with &#8220;insurrection&#8221; and it&#8217;s fair to assume that&#8217;s left them emboldened to plot another coup against an incoming Trump transition.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #333399;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Gentry.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-26585 size-medium" title="&quot;Former CIA intelligence analyst Dr. John Gentry spoke to Fox News Digital in an exclusive interview about his new book &quot;Neutering the CIA,&quot; DEI, and the 2024 election. &quot;" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Gentry-150x84.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="84" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Gentry-150x84.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Gentry-800x450.jpg 800w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Gentry-768x432.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Gentry.jpg 896w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>My guess is that the proverbial deep state within the intelligence community will reemerge because presumably a Republican candidate will again be seen as a threat to the internal policies that many intelligence people like.</span><br />

<p>Democrats have a lot to lose in 2024, power being the top of the list but not most important to the apparatus.</p>
<p>Thousands of federal employees could lose their cush taxpayer-funded gigs within months of a Trump inauguration. Like it or not, they are employed to serve at the pleasure of the elected President of the United States. During the four-plus years of the Trump Administration, there were many public displays of insubordination and those efforts were cheered on by the media. President Trump signed a <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2022/07/06/2025-trump-will-drain-the-swamp-re-invoke-long-overdue-schedule-f/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Schedule F</a> executive order near the end of his first term, and that EO was quietly rescinded by Joe Biden almost immediately after he was sworn in.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Trump-Russia.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-26586 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Trump-Russia-150x84.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="84" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Trump-Russia-150x84.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Trump-Russia.jpg 750w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>While the left and their media enjoyed the persecution and imprisoning of Joe Biden&#8217;s political opponents, they will be the first to remind an incoming President Trump not to engage in petty, vindictive acts of revenge. But there <span style="text-decoration: underline;">will</span> be lots to investigate. Many people who tried to disrupt the 2016 Trump Transition Team and his presidency with false claims from dirty tricks have yet to lawyer-up and face the music for the drama (including undeserved impeachments) they created and the &#8220;baggage&#8221; Trump is said to have because of those dirty trick slanders.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #333399;"><strong>It is classic Russian technique to blame on the other guy what they&#8217;re planning to do themselves.</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #333399;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/aYSkNtUBjsw?si=0k46QhPB6absiSX5&amp;t=2889" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Victoria Nuland, Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs, 3/8/22</a></p>
<p>The media will again go into 24-7 anti-Trump mode despite the fact most repeated lies for years and have yet to admit and apologize for their misinformation. They will double down and further prove they don&#8217;t deserve the <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2023/08/03/partisan-media-forfeited-1st-amendment-protection/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">First Amendment protections</a> afforded a free and fair watchdog media. These are partisan activists and ignorant college hires who&#8217;ll repeat falsehoods who, despite the fact they&#8217;ll now be called on their lies on Elon Musk&#8217;s X, will continue to fan partisan flames to those who are too stupid and/or arrogant to admit they&#8217;re being used.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/White-House-attack.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-26599 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/White-House-attack-150x100.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="100" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/White-House-attack-150x100.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/White-House-attack-800x533.jpg 800w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/White-House-attack-768x512.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/White-House-attack-360x240.jpg 360w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/White-House-attack-600x400.jpg 600w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/White-House-attack.jpg 1200w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Will we have an actual coup d&#8217;etat November 5, 2024? Given the determination of those unpunished leftists, I say the chances are very good.</p>
<p>The left has no problem taking to the streets, vandalizing public and private property, disrupting traffic, burning down black neighborhoods, looting, assaulting law enforcement and killing private citizens.</p>
<p>Taking over the federal government to stop the &#8220;peaceful transition of power&#8221; is a simple task when that transition will be &#8220;mostly peaceful&#8221;&#8230;.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pardon the cynicism but there appears to be no access to a fair trial if you&#8217;re a conservative Republican in the United States, especially in Washington, D.C. Given the result of the Michael Sussmann trial (and the previous <a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/2020/12/05/clinesmith-pleads-leniency-resistance-deserve-none/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kevin Clinesmith sentencing</a>), you can lie to federal law enforcement and forge documents.</p>
<p>Especially, if you&#8217;re a lawyer&#8230;.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Durham.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-23396 size-medium" title="Special Counsel John Durham" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Durham-150x103.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="103" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Durham-150x103.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Durham-768x528.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Durham.jpg 800w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>The first courtroom test for Special Counsel John Durham ended in defeat Tuesday as a federal jury found a Democratic attorney not guilty of making a false statement to the FBI about allegations of computer links between Donald Trump and Russia. The jury deliberated for about six hours before acquitting Michael Sussmann, 57, on the single felony charge he faced: that he lied when he allegedly denied he was acting on behalf of any client in alerting the FBI to claims that a secret server linked Trump and a Moscow bank with ties to Russian President Vladimir Putin.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.politico.com/news/2022/05/31/sussmann-acquitted-trump-special-counsel-00036033" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Politico, 5/31/22</a></p>
<p>Since the early days of the Donald Trump campaign, transition, and term in office, we&#8217;ve all seen one constant when it comes to the Democrat Party, federal officials and employees, their activists, and their media: they lie and get away with it.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Sussmann2.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-23393 size-medium" title="Michael Sussmann" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Sussmann2-150x87.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="87" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Sussmann2-150x87.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Sussmann2-768x444.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Sussmann2.jpg 800w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>In the Sussmann case, we had an Obama-appointed judge, jurors who managed to be seated despite clear conflicts of interest, and we were all supposed to take their word that they&#8217;d be fair and impartial.</p>
<p>Yeah, right.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">As many as three Hillary Clinton donors — including one who also supported US Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez — are among the prospective jurors for former Clinton campaign lawyer Michael Sussmann’s trial. Special counsel John Durham’s team objected to putting one Clinton contributor on the panel after the man said he would “strive for impartiality as best I can.”</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Judge-Cooper-1.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-23412 size-medium" title="Judge Christopher Cooper" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Judge-Cooper-1-150x90.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="90" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Judge-Cooper-1-150x90.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Judge-Cooper-1.jpg 766w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>But the prosecution was overruled by Washington, DC, federal Judge Christopher Cooper, who said the man — who works in public policy for Amazon and appeared to be in his 40s — “expressed a high degree of confidence” that he could be impartial. Cooper, nominated by former President Barack Obama, also said Durham’s prosecutors could use one of its peremptory challenges to strike him from the panel for the trial, the first to result from his three-year probe into the government’s investigations of purported ties between former President Donald Trump and Russia.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://nypost.com/2022/05/16/hillary-aoc-donors-among-jury-pool-in-ex-clinton-lawyers-trial/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post, 5/16/22</a></p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trump-points.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-15755 size-medium" title="President Donald Trump" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trump-points-150x90.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="90" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trump-points-150x90.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trump-points.jpg 300w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Again having to replay that stupid scenario, what if this were a trial against a Republican defendant in a red state, the judge was appointed by President Donald Trump and prospective jurors were found to have donated to his campaign. First off The Washington Post, New York Times, CNN and MSNBC would have prefaced their coverage with &#8220;conflict of interest&#8221; shrieks and demands to begin with a change of venue and dismissal of obvious biased jury members. But the legacy media most hid the partisan nature of the court proceedings so the trial result would appear on the up-and-up.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/AOC.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-2539 size-medium" title="Rep.

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Although the woman told prosecutor Michael Keilty that she had “a strong preference of one candidate over the other” in the election, she insisted she could be impartial.</span></p>

<p>Take her word for it.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Another prospective juror who works for the Sierra Club and appeared to be in her 30s was questioned by Keilty about saying on a pre-screening questionnaire that she thought the criminal justice system was racist and “the police should be defunded.”</span></p>
<p>But her ideology wouldn&#8217;t have any effect during possible deliberations in a trial involving a Democrat. And we all know the wall-to-wall second-guessing that would occur during the evening opinion shows on CNN and MSNBC had a pro-Trump juror been a parent whose child hung out with the defendant&#8217;s child.</p>
<p>But the reverse was allowed to happen here.</p>

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">A woman, identified as Juror #5, came forward Thursday morning to tell the court that she only recently discovered that her daughter and Mr. Sussmann’s daughter play on the same high school crew team.</span><br />

<p>Americans should have a reasonable expectation to a fair trial and should not have to be wary of the appearance of a clearly rigged system that favors one ideology over another, and there are takeaways we should never forget going forward&#8230;.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/WaPo-NYT-Pulitzer.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-19930 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/WaPo-NYT-Pulitzer-150x178.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="178" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/WaPo-NYT-Pulitzer-150x178.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/WaPo-NYT-Pulitzer.jpg 679w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Let&#8217;s start by not letting the sanctimonious media off the hook because this is the same overpaid bunch that parroted a fake Russia collusion hoax and even won Pulitzer Prizes for vigorously repeating the Hillary Clinton dirty trick we all knew was false. The media has been wrong about numerous things of national importance so just because they, to this day, repeat all the reasons why they insist Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, doesn&#8217;t mean we should again sit down and shut up because they say so.</p>
<p>Also to this day, Trump is criticized for his demeanor while in office. Well, if you had to fend off a hostile media, opposition party and federal employee obstructionists pushing false accusations for years, you might have a burr up your ass, that is if you could have survived it.</p>
<p>In some sports if a previous play is in question, the game is halted, the officials gather, replays are watched and if there&#8217;s enough evidence to overturn a call, the outcome of the play can either stand or be reversed. However in today&#8217;s brand of politics, if the fans see a play as going one way at home or on the stadium big screen and the officials (and media) see it another, there is no replay review offered and the fans and candidate are told to shut up and deal with it.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/2020-Election-Night.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-23285 size-medium" title="Election Night 2020" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/2020-Election-Night-150x134.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="134" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/2020-Election-Night-150x134.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/2020-Election-Night.jpg 687w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Such is what happened after the 2020 presidential election. The electorate saw one candidate clearly outplaying the other during the long campaign season. During the championship game one team was clearly winning, we have a commercial time-out and when the game resumed all see the score has been changed, the team that was losing is now winning; a lead that would not be relinquished by the media&#8217;s preferred team.</p>
<p>Too many in the media and pundit class are still too eager to insist Donald Trump shut and get over his &#8220;loss&#8221; to Joe Biden, but it&#8217;s easy to talk. If they actually had the guts to be a candidate for any public office, they&#8217;d understand why it&#8217;s not easy to just up and walk away from a long, hard campaign you believe you couldn&#8217;t have and didn&#8217;t lose.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-73 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear-150x87.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="87" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear-150x87.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear-768x445.jpg 768w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear-500x290.jpg 500w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Donald-Trump-ear.jpg 940w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Being a candidate takes more than just getting on a ballot and running a campaign.</p>
<p>Prior to, there are many discussions had between immediate family members and friends because depending on the office sought, there are profound ramifications for all involved including intrusions of varying intensity into personal lives by the media and opposition elements.</p>
<p>After a campaign is set up, trusted people have to be brought on to give of their paid and/or volunteer time, and depending on the office, can take months if not years of their time and energy. Significant financial structures have to be created and maintained to meet media and government scrutiny. And most notably, if you&#8217;re not in the good graces of the media on all levels, your political and personal life will be made hell during and after the campaign despite the result.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trump-Butler-PA.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-15712 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trump-Butler-PA-150x100.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="100" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trump-Butler-PA-150x100.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trump-Butler-PA-360x240.jpg 360w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trump-Butler-PA-600x400.jpg 600w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/Trump-Butler-PA.jpg 700w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Those who are quick to jump on Donald Trump are mostly those who, despite having mouths of varying sizes, were and are too chicken shit to take a strong position they are willing to defend, create a platform that can withstand appropriate inspection, and stick their own necks out and run for office themselves. Most probably know they have too many skeletons in their sanctimonious closets that are best left closed. Most are shallow enough that their positions can and will vary depending on who is issuing their present paycheck. And some have specious public speaking skills that would be open to mass mockery once displayed and recorded.</p>
<p>These people are like the sports blabbermouths who are quick to criticize and athlete or team despite never having the guts or talent to put on a uniform and compete against other very talented people. Donald Trump decided to do something he really didn&#8217;t have to do. He had a very successful and physically comfortable life. He was very popular amongst his political and media peers until he decided to temporarily give it all up and serve his country when it was clearly going in the wrong direction.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/TrumpThreat09.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-17083 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/TrumpThreat09-150x100.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="100" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/TrumpThreat09-150x100.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/TrumpThreat09-360x240.jpg 360w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/TrumpThreat09-600x400.jpg 600w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/TrumpThreat09.jpg 664w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>He was also met with pushback by the mediocres in government whose personal interests were greater than obeying the orders of their new boss, media-stoked unprecedented hate fueled by cowards on social media and in the streets, and of course the dirty tricks by an opponent that was amplified to derail his agenda. And when Trump ran for reelection against an inferior candidate and &#8220;lost&#8221;, he justifiably continues to remind us that the whole process stunk and he has every right to do so, especially when the Democrat media continues to laud the sore-loser whining of stolen elections spewed by Stacey Abrams and Hillary Clinton to this day.</p>
<p>Until you are a candidate, you can&#8217;t understand the pain of a loss that you know wasn&#8217;t.</p>
<p>Until you are a candidate, you are no one to tell a candidate to get over it.</p>

<p>In simpler words, Joe Biden won the election, there was no cheating, the &#8220;media&#8221; said so; shut the fuck up&#8230; or else.</p>
<p>Dominion Voting Systems is even going as far as issuing million dollar lawsuits against anyone who dare imply their machines did anything to alter the solemn votes of Americans in favor of one candidate over another.</p>

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">The posts need to be kept “because they are relevant to Dominion’s defamation claims relating to false accusations that Dominion rigged the 2020 election,” according to the demand letters from Dominion’s law firm Clare Locke. Dominion</span> <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/dominion-voting-systems-giuliani-lawsuit/2021/01/25/b0fc3db4-5f14-11eb-afbe-9a11a127d146_story.html?itid=lk_inline_manual_4" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sued Rudolph W.

<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Dominion warned in its letters to the social media companies that more lawsuits would be coming.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Facebook, Twitter and YouTube all have policies against spreading election-related misinformation. They have been removing — with varying degrees of success — posts falsely suggesting the election had been rigged since the baseless rumors began spreading in November. Parler was</span> <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/01/09/amazon-parler-suspension/?itid=lk_inline_manual_10" target="_blank" rel="noopener">effectively knocked offline</a> <span style="color: #808080;">in January when Amazon, Apple and Google stopped providing it technical services for</span> <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/01/13/amazon-parler-takedown/?itid=lk_inline_manual_10" target="_blank" rel="noopener">violating their policies</a> <span style="color: #808080;">against online posts that incite violence.</span><br />

<p>If ANY mention of voting machine &#8220;irregularities&#8221; can and will be met with a lawsuit, why are voting machines being blamed for an election loss?</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Oswego-county.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-17219 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Oswego-county-150x166.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="166" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Oswego-county-150x166.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Oswego-county.jpg 580w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a></strong>Respondent the Oswego County Board of Elections (“Oswego County”) encountered <strong>“voting machine issues in Constantia Districts 1 and 3 and Williamstown,”</strong> which required all ballots cast to be “hand counted and added to the machine totals in those election districts.”</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;">In this case, there is reason to believe that voting tabulation machines misread hundreds if not thousands of valid votes as undervotes, (supra at 4), and that these tabulation machine errors disproportionately affected Brindisi, (id.).</span></strong><br />

<p>Uh oh.</p>
<p>And what lawyer, who values his or her license to practice and speak freely, would risk it all to imply a Dominion voting system provided problematic results in an election?</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Marc-Elias.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-17212 size-medium" title="Marc Elias" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Marc-Elias-150x92.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="92" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Marc-Elias-150x92.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Marc-Elias.jpg 700w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Marc Elias, the election lawyer who represented Democratic challenges to state rules throughout the 2020 election, alleged in a court filing this week that a close congressional race in upstate New York was marred by faulty voting machines.</span></strong></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">In the congressional race for New York’s 22nd district, Republican Claudia Tenney currently leads incumbent Democrat Anthony Brindisi by a razor-thin margin of 125 votes. Tenney declared victory on Tuesday, though challenges </span><a href="https://www.uticaod.com/story/news/politics/elections/2021/02/02/ny-22-tenney-declares-victory-over-brindisi-results-not-final/4354707001/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external">continue</a><span style="color: #808080;">. In a legal </span><a href="https://www.democracydocket.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/45/2020/12/2021.02.01_Memorandum-of-Law.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener external">filing</a><span style="color: #808080;"> Monday requesting a manual audit of the election, <strong>Elias, whose Perkins Coie law firm is representing Brindisi, argued that there were “substantial errors and irregularities in the conduct of the election.”</strong></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><strong><span style="color: #808080;">Citing alleged discrepancies between votes counted by hand and votes counted by ballot machines, Elias argued that the error rate, extrapolated across the entire district, could mean that thousands of votes were improperly counted by the machines.</span></strong></p>
<p>Marc Elias has made a nice living casting doubt and trying to overturn the results of elections; ONLY elections where the Democrat lost.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><a href="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Elias.jpg" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-17213 size-medium" title="Marc Elias" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Elias-150x84.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="84" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Elias-150x84.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Elias.jpg 474w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" /></a>Elias is also representing defeated Democrat Rita Hart in Iowa’s 1st congressional district, who lost by six votes to Republican Rep. Mariannette Miller Meeks (R-IA). He is asking the Democrat-controlled House to overturn the result of the election and seat Hart, despite certification of the vote by state election authorities, bypassing Iowa courts in the process.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">In addition, as Breitbart News has noted, <strong>“Elias was responsible for hiring opposition research firm Fusion GPS, on behalf of Hillary Clinton’s campaign and the Democratic National Committee, [which produced] the fraudulent “Russia dossier” on then-candidate Donald Trump in 2016.”</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/2020-election/2021/02/03/democrat-lawyer-marc-elias-claims-faulty-voting-machines-in-new-york-race/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Breitbart, 2/3/21</a></p>
<p>Of course, and as usual, the hypocrisy is in your face.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re a Democrat who lost a race in 2020 due to voting irregularities with a Dominion voting machine, everything necessary can and will be done to overturn the results of that election with no fear of media criticism and legal repercussion on the horizon.</p>

<p>Welcome to the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, circa 2020-21.</p>
