Will Dems Disrupt Certification of Trump’s Triumph?

 When the Electoral College confirmed Donald Trump’s victory over Kamala Harris on December 17, many thought the certification would be straightforward. However, Democrats have a history of attempting to block Republican victories. The ongoing debate includes claims that Trump should not hold office due to Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, with some arguing he is an insurrectionist.

Some critics, like lawyers Evan Davis and David Schulte, labeled Trump as an “oath-breaking insurrectionist” in a recent piece, asserting that there is overwhelming evidence against him, despite the fact that he has never been charged with insurrection. They reference previous forums that allegedly labeled Trump as guilty, but these include his impeachment trial, which acquitted him, and other decisions that were later rejected.

Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin expressed strong views on the role of Congress in possibly preventing Trump from taking office again, suggesting that Congress would be responsible for communicating disqualification to supporters on January 6, 2025. There are concerns that he and other left-leaning Democrats may try to disrupt the certification process again. The Electoral Count Reform Act of 2022, however, makes it harder for such disruptions to occur by requiring more members from both chambers of Congress to challenge electors.

Additionally, Evans and Schulte's claims seem to lack credible evidence, as they argue that because Trump was not formally charged, it would somehow invalidate the electoral votes. They misinterpret the law, claiming that voting for a disqualified candidate does not constitute a regular vote.

Furthermore, the ECRA aims to clarify the Vice President's role in determining elector disputes, indicating that Kamala Harris will not have sole power over these decisions during the certification process. Analysts note that the ongoing rhetoric around Trump continues to reflect a lack of critical reasoning among some of his detractors.

In summary, discussions surrounding Trump’s eligibility, particularly concerning Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, reveal significant divisions and strategies among Democrats in the face of ongoing electoral processes. The hope remains that absurd claims will not derail the electoral system.

Fauci Files Reveal Pfizer Helped Biden Rig 2020 Election

 Pfizer secretly colluded with Joe Biden's team to help him rig the 2020 election against Trump, according to new Fauci documents. In his new book, "On Call," Fauci admits that Albert Bourla, the CEO of Pfizer, called him the night after Biden was declared the winner of the election, to inform him of Pfizer's "Game-changing results" from the rigged mRNA trial. "On November 7, after the absentee ballots were counted, Joe Biden was declared the winner of the presidential election. It was the very next night that Albert Bourla, Pfizer's CEO, called me away from my neighbors' fire pit to inform me about the game-changing results from the Pfizer mRNA vaccine trial. I finally thought we had truly turned a corner in defeating this terrible disease." Today reports: In another interesting tidbit, Fauci discusses Trump's FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn declaring that he would not go along with the Trump Administration's plan to roll out the vac...

  Multiple U.S. states governed by Republicans are withdrawing state funds from BlackRock's management, as they disapprove of the ESG investment policies of the world's top asset manager, the Financial Times reports.

The Biden-Harris White House Has An Iranian Spy Leaking U.S. Intelligence In It

 The question is, how did classified intelligence from the United States, showing Israeli military movements that suggest broader action against Iran, get to Tehran? The answer raises uncomfortable questions for the Biden-Harris White House, which has opposed Israel every step of the way in responding to Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran. Defying Biden got Israel the entire leadership of Hezbollah and Hamas, with the ultimate threat still looming: Iran and its nuclear program. Operations against Iran are being assessed also because Iran has started firing ballistic missiles into Israel, targeting civilian centers across the country. If Israel is close to launching a broader offensive against Iran, leaking U.S. intelligence would be a way to both try and deter Israel and give more warning to Iran. In 2012, similar allegations were made against the Obama administration when U.S. intelligence leaks showed that Israel was working towards using "Azerbaijan as a base of operations in the event...
