BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY 

New poll on election security

By Mike Huckabee

Democrats love to scold people for being “on the wrong side of history.” Well, if that presumptuous phrase ever applied to anyone, it applies big time to their war on election integrity laws (they declare all of them to be attempts at “voter suppression,” which in a way they are: they seek to suppress illegal voting) and their HR1 bill to legalize virtually every method of rigging an election.

According to a new Rasmussen survey, in working against attempts to make elections more secure, the Democrats are on the wrong side of 77% of voters. That includes 83% of Republicans, 71% of Independents and even 77% of Democrats!

While a few of the more benign HR1 reforms are popular with voters, like making Election Day a national holiday (who’s going to turn down a day off work, whether you vote or not?), many of the others are as popular as an arsenic cocktail. Americans want election reform, but they want the opposite of most of HR1; they want to make elections more secure, not less.

For instance, HR1 would ban making people show a photo ID before voting, while 70% of Americans want voters to be required to show a photo ID. And HR1 would allow mail-in ballots to be counted for up to 10 days after an election, while 74% of voters want only ballots received by Election Day to be counted.

Interestingly enough, for all the talk about it being treasonous to question the 2020 election and any suggestion that it was rigged being crazy, debunked conspiracy talk, Democrats are nearly as likely as Republicans to believe that a recent Presidential election was rigged. Thanks to their four-year whinefest about “Russian collusion," 26% of voters now believe Hillary Clinton really won the 2016 election, while 31% of voters believe Trump really won the 2020 election.

Hey, I have a suggestion to get that second number down. Do the same thing they did to Trump and give Biden’s political enemies in Washington an unlimited mandate and a blank check to investigate the 2020 election. If they’re able to come up with no more evidence than Mueller did (which was zero), then I’ll bet at least another 6% of voters will accept that Biden really won, so at least they’ll both be even.

Patrick Byrne's devastating new book on the 2020 election

By Mike Huckabee

Entrepreneur and election sleuth Patrick Byrne has a new ebook, called “THE DEEP RIG: How Election Fraud Cost Donald J. Trump the White House, by a Man Who Did Not Vote for Him.” I’m kind of surprised that the book –- at this writing, at least –- is listed on Amazon.com, but here it is. I hope it’s still there when you try to go to it.

Here it is at Barnes & Noble…

And in case it goes away, Byrne's own website should have a way to obtain it…

You’ll no doubt recall Byrne, best known for starting Overstock.com, from his appearances on FOX NEWS in the days after the election. He was trying to prove the allegations that the machines provided by Dominion Voting Systems could be hacked. It was his company that had been hired in the state of Texas, mostly Dallas County, to evaluate the Dominion system and that ended up finding major security flaws in 2018 that convinced election officials not to use it.

We wondered if Byrne had been sued by Dominion, and did find one story from about a month ago saying he was on a list of targeted persons whose posts to various social media platforms should be preserved in case there’s a lawsuit. But we haven’t found signs that they’ve actually sued him.

I’d assumed Byrne voted for Trump, but it turns out he’s a Libertarian and apparently went with that choice instead. (Note: if more like him had gone ahead and voted for Trump, it would have been a lot harder for Biden to get to the White House, cheating or no cheating.) Still, Byrne has come away from his experience believing that the election is rigged. Considering that he personally had no partisan stake in the outcome, he should be thanked for getting involved and trying to expose a story that was being suppressed. We weren’t supposed to be looking at it, or talking about it, or tweeting about it, but here we are.

A blurb from the listing says, “In this book, he explains what caused him in August 2020 to study election fraud, and what really happened during the 2020 election. He describes how his team of “cyber-ninjas” unraveled it while they worked against the clock of Constitutional processes, all against the background of being a lifetime entrepreneur trying to interact with Washington, DC. This book takes you behind the headlines to backroom scenes that determined whether or not the fraud would be exposed in time, and paints a portrait of Washington that will leave the reader asking, ‘Is this the end of our Constitutional republic?’”

We sure as heck aren’t going to get the story from the news media. I won't say that Biden did NOT win more votes in those swing states than Trump did because I don’t have definitive proof, but it seems darn near impossible that he received more votes than any candidate in history, more than either Trump or Obama, even though that is claimed. The lack of transparency is shocking –- thank you, Supreme Court –- and if that’s not fixed, we’ll never trust our elections again. The Republic will not endure without that trust.

If Biden couldn’t have won as many votes as is claimed, the conclusion can only be that it was an illusion, like a magic trick. How do you figure out how a magic trick was done? Well, you start with the idea that it IS a trick –- you understand that there’s a secret to it, and you don’t give up until you find that secret. Byrne thought he knew what Democrats planned to do even before the election, starting even then to “reverse-engineer” it.

I haven’t yet read the book, but it’s said to contain the evidence no court would look at. Being digital, it also contains links to sources. Much of the information will not be new to the readers of this newsletter, as we followed the story closely, but it will be organized, in a nice timeline with all the puzzle pieces arranged. (I do understand from the reviews that it’s very rough on Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani.) As one reviewer said, “I have been following along with the precursor to this book –- individual blog posts on Patrick’s website –- and, honestly, it was the first time in a very long time that I’ve been so ensnared by a story. I would wait impatiently for each update, and they never failed to disappoint. Patrick has a unique way of weaving words that makes you feel as though you are right there in the midst of the action, and by the time you are finished reading certain passages, you share his very real frustration with how the events unfolded.”

We’ve got to find out the real story on those voting machines. Now that the major players on both sides have lawyered-up, it’s going to be hard to get that. On the other hand, perhaps the discovery process will work the opposite way and speed things along. But it’s got to be done before November of 2022. As I’ve said, we simply can’t have another election like the one we had on November 3.

In the meantime, “fact”-checkers will say that Byrne’s allegations have been “debunked.” They have not. They haven’t been proven true, at least at this point, but they certainly haven’t been debunked, either.

It’s important to remember, as we’ve been saying here all along, that VOTER FRAUD IS VOTER SUPPRESSION. Every illegitimate vote that gets counted cancels out a real one. It wouldn’t have taken many “cancelations,” either, for Biden to win the election, as they just had to be in certain places, a few thousand here, a few thousand there, for a razor-thin victory right where it counted.

At the risk of being canceled, I’m going to quote a reviewer named William Bailey, who as an involved resident of Antrim, Michigan, is part of the story.

Bailey preferred a more outspoken title, something like “The Theft of the American Presidency and the Rise of the Totalitarian State.” Bailey says: “For those of you who have read Orwell, they want us to see five fingers when they are in fact holding up only four. They want us to accept their propaganda as factual when anyone with working grey matter knows they are lying to us. Each to his own, but I’m personally convinced an organized and successful attack on our election process took place...”

"If you’ve been around as long as me,” he continues, “you’ve witnessed America’s bedrock institutions, one after another, become corrupt, compromised, or controlled by bad actors, sinister souls with political ideologies that are poison to our Limited Government Constitutional Republic.”

Until we can have a complete forensic analysis of the ballots for 2020, we will not know what really happened. But we will have our suspicions.

As for the book, my staff and I can’t wait to read it. As another reviewer said, “After reading this short book, I have a much better understanding of how and why things played out the way they did.” And that’s what we really want and deserve.

Biden's dog banished

By Mike Huckabee

To show the kind of hard-hitting scoops we’re going to get about the Biden White House, it was revealed that last week, Biden’s dog Major had a “biting incident” with a member of White House security and was returned to Biden’s Delaware home because of his aggressive behavior. Biden’s other dog Champ was sent along to keep from separating them.

As Ed Driscoll of Instapundit pointed out, Hillary Clinton warned us of this just last month when she tweeted, “Don’t vote for anyone you wouldn’t trust with your dog,” but she was about three months too late.

I would also like to point out that despite all the troops, razor wire and predictions of an insurrection by neo-Nazi Trump supporters, so far, the only assault on a federal officer in DC since January 6th was by Joe Biden’s dog. He is a German shepherd, though, so maybe he’s a Nazi sympathizer.

Border Crisis

By Mike Huckabee

The head of the Department of Homeland Security put out an urgent request for staffers to volunteer to help deal with the escalating crisis of an overwhelming number of migrants at our Southern border.

The email concluded, "President Biden and I are committed to ensuring our Nation has a safe, orderly, and humane immigration system while continuing to balance all of the other critical DHS missions."

No, President Biden created this overwhelming immigration crisis by mindlessly undoing policies that worked, just because Trump instituted them. Now, he’s begging for volunteers to come deal with the giant mess he’s made, just as Texas is having to send Guard troops and other resources to its border and possibly pay to finish building the border wall itself.

And in Arizona, illegal immigration is already on track for 2021 to surpass the past three years combined.

The more I see of Biden, the more I think of Mickey Mouse in “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice,” a character whose hubris made him think he could do a job beyond his abilities and who ended up conjuring up a disaster.

ICMYI: Rejected

By Mike Huckabee

Monday, the Supreme Court once again rejected without comment President Trump’s last remaining challenge to the 2020 election. He sued Wisconsin for allowing executive branch officials to arbitrarily rewrite election laws without the consent of the state legislature.

It’s yet another reminder of the necessity to stop the HR1 “Legalize Vote Fraud” Act before it gets out of Congress, because no matter how unconstitutional that bill is, the SCOTUS clearly can’t be trusted to do its duty and strike it down.

NY Implosion

By Mike Huckabee

The latest news in the ongoing implosion of New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is that he is defiantly refusing to resign and insisting he’ll have to be impeached. So Republicans in the State Assembly are introducing articles of impeachment and launching an investigation that’s expected to take about two months.

Republicans hold only 43 of the 150 Assembly seats and are outnumbered 43-20 in the state Senate (hence all the residents fleeing New York for red states), so impeachment might seem impossible. But Cuomo’s alleged COVID cover-up of nursing home deaths, bullying of colleagues and (so far) five accusations of sexual harassment are actually making him toxic enough for a number of Democrats to consider uncircling the wagons and throwing him under the bus.

Incidentally, Steve Kelley perfectly captured President Biden’s hypocrisy over what he considers “Neanderthal thinking” in a great editorial cartoon.

And speaking of hypocrisy, Hollywood is cutting the cartoon skunk Pepe LePew from “Space Jam 2” for being a sexual harasser, but they’re letting Gov. Andrew Cuomo keep the Emmy Award they gave him for Best Acting in the Fictional Role of a Competent Governor.
