Cable Forum - U.S Election 2020

Someone behaving that way in front of a Commons select committee could be held in contempt of Parliament, but the non-members punishment for this appears to be getting hauled in front of the Speaker to get shouted at. :D

They do as far as I know - if that person is then in court.

No-one has yet though. Non of the hotel 'hearings' have any legal standing.

Just when you thought it couldn't get any crazier...

Roger Stone

Quote:

Former Trump adviser Roger Stone claimed without evidence on Wednesday that North Korea had interfered in the U.S. presidential election. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump continued to assert that fraudulent activity was prevalent during the November election.

Stone, who has previously spoken of his respect for some members of the QAnon conspiracy theory movement, was sentenced to 40 months in prison for lying to investigators in connection with the Mueller probe into Russian election meddling during Trump's 2016 campaign. Trump commuted Stone's sentence in July.

With the Electoral College expected to meet on December 14, Trump has intensified his claims of widespread election fraud. Democrat President-elect Joe Biden was widely projected to be the winner of the election despite Trump's protestations. During an interview on The Alex Jones Show, Stone baselessly said he had received proof of election fraud.

"I just learned of absolute incontrovertible evidence of North Korean boats delivering ballots through a harbor in Maine, the state of Maine," Stone said. "If this checks out, if law enforcement looked into that and it turned out to be true, it would be proof of foreign involvement in the election."

Re: U.S Election 2020

Someone else said that Biden/Harris vans were delivering ballot boxes in Arizona. They're so unimaginative with their claims of fraud. It would be like accusing someone of stealing by saying they were running out of a house with black and white stripping clothing with a bag labelled Swag.

Lol!

Putting aside the whackiness of the claim itself, "absolute incontrovertible evidence" and "and it turned out to be true" are contradictory.

Re: U.S Election 2020

And yet another lawsuit.

"Trump Campaign files lawsuit to invalidate Georgia presidential election results "

Quote:

“What was filed today clearly documents that there are literally tens of thousands of illegal votes that were cast, counted, and included in the tabulations the Secretary of State is preparing to certify,” said Ray S. Smith III, lead counsel for the Trump Campaign. “The massive irregularities, mistakes, and potential fraud violate the Georgia Election Code, making it impossible to know with certainty the actual outcome of the presidential race in Georgia.”

The campaign included dozens of signed affidavits from Georgia residents claiming to have witnessed voter fraud including:" failure to process and secure the ballots, failure to verify the signatures on absentee ballots, the appearance of mysterious “pristine” absentee ballots not received in official absentee ballot envelopes that were voted almost solely for Joe Biden, failure to allow poll watchers meaningful access to observe the election, among other violations of law."

Quote:

Data experts also provided sworn testimony in the lawsuit identifying thousands of illegal votes: 2,560 felons; 66,247 underage voters, 2,423 votes from people not registered; 1,043 individuals registered at post office boxes; 4,926 individuals who voted in Georgia after registering in another state; 395 individuals who voted in two states; 15,700 votes from people who moved out of state before the election; 40,279 votes of people who moved without re-registering in their new county; and another 30,000 to 40,000 absentee ballots lacking proper signature matching and verification.

Well, they lost six yesterday...

Quote:

President Donald Trump and his legal allies earned a platinum sombrero Friday, striking out five times in a matter of hours in states pivotal to the president’s push to overturn the election results — and losing a sixth in Minnesota for good measure.

It was another harsh milestone in a monthlong run of legal futility, accompanied by sharp rebukes from county, state and federal judges who continue to express shock at the Trump team’s effort to simply scrap the results of an election he lost. Several of the most devastating opinions, both Friday and in recent weeks, have come from conservative judges and, in some federal cases, Trump appointees.

The losses included a rejection in Wisconsin from the state Supreme Court, where the majority was gobsmacked at the effort by a conservative group to invalidate the entire election without any compelling evidence of voter fraud or misconduct.

The relief being sought by the petitioners is the most dramatic invocation of judicial power I have ever seen,” said Brian Hagedorn, a conservative elected justice, in a concurring opinion. “Judicial acquiescence to such entreaties built on so flimsy a foundation would do indelible damage to every future election. Once the door is opened to judicial invalidation of presidential election results, it will be awfully hard to close that door again. This is a dangerous path we are being asked to tread.”

An Arizona county judge, similarly, tossed a suit brought by state GOP chair Kelli Ward. "The court finds no misconduct, no fraud and no effect on the outcome of the election."

An attorney has tendered CCTV evidence to a Georgia Senate Judiciary Subcommittee which she claims shows poll workers waiting for observers and media to leave before accessing ballot-stuffed suitcases from under a table.

Such blatant cheating it's quite shocking.

President-elect Joe Biden formally clinched the number of Electoral College votes he needs to take the White House next month after California certified its election Friday.

California’s secretary of state, Alex Padilla, certified that it is assigning Biden 55 electors after reviewing the election results, pushing his total to 279 — nine more than the 270 he needs to be elected president.

Strange they can't ever supply even a scrap of this mountain of evidence once they get inside a court room. :rolleyes:
