President Trump fights back on Wis., Pa.: We have found many illegal votes

President Trump promised to challenge the Wisconsin vote count after the recount there, and said his campaign is disputing a number of votes larger than President-elect Joe Biden’s winning margin. “The Wisconsin recount is not about finding mistakes in the count, it is about finding people who have voted illegally, and that case will be brought after the recount is over, on Monday or Tuesday. We have found many illegal votes. Stay tuned!” the president tweeted Saturday afternoon. Biden picked up 132 more votes after an election recount in Milwaukee County, one of two places in Wisconsin where Trump spent $3 million to force a recount. In Dane County, another Democratic stronghold in Wisconsin, votes are still being tallied in a count expected to last into the weekend, but Trump has gained 68 votes over Biden so far. Trump is gearing up for yet another legal battle, this time to toss tens of thousands of ballots in the state Biden clinched by nearly 20,600 votes, with margins in Milwaukee and Dane counties about 2-to-1 for the Democrat. The deadline to certify the votes, which will be done by the Democratic chair of the bipartisan Wisconsin Election Commission, is Tuesday, but the Wisconsin Voters Alliance, a conservative group, has filed a lawsuit against election officials, seeking to block the process. Later Saturday, the president tweeted about Pennsylvania, saying he could prove fraud. “Specific allegations were made, and we have massive proof, in the Pennsylvania case. Some people just don’t want to see it. They want nothing to do with saving our Country. Sad!!!” Trump said. “The number of ballots that our Campaign is challenging in the Pennsylvania case is FAR LARGER than the 81,000 vote margin. It’s not even close. Fraud and illegality ARE a big part of the case. Documents being completed. We will appeal!” he continued. The Trump campaign has been looking ahead to a potential Supreme Court case after a panel of federal appeals judges in Pennsylvania dismissed the campaign’s lawsuit claiming voter fraud in the presidential election. “The campaign’s claims have no merit,” the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia ruled Friday, despite Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani arguing to a lower court that widespread voter fraud occurred in a state where President-elect Joe Biden won by just over 80,000 votes. The Trump campaign has the option of asking the U.S. Supreme Court for emergency injunctive relief, which would go to Justice Samuel Alito, who would then likely ask his eight colleagues to weigh in. “The activist judicial machinery in Pennsylvania continues to cover up the allegations of massive fraud. We are very thankful to have had the opportunity to present proof and the facts to the PA state legislature. On to SCOTUS!,” Jenna Ellis, Trump’s attorney and campaign adviser, said in a statement on Twitter after the court ruling. Meanwhile, Trump’s attorneys have targeted absentee ballots in which voters identified themselves as “indefinitely confined,” allowing them to cast an absentee ballot without showing a photo ID; ballots that have a certification envelope with two different ink colors, indicating a poll worker may have helped complete it; and absentee ballots that don’t have a separate written record for the request, such as in-person absentee ballots. Election officials have tallied those ballots during the recount but marked them as exhibits at the request of the Trump campaign. Trump’s campaign challenges have failed in courts elsewhere, with experts widely concurring that there’s no proof of GOP claims of widespread voter fraud. Legal efforts to date have been unsuccessful in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada and Pennsylvania.
Biden Should Concede Now! He is Not the Legitimate 2020 Election Winner

President Trump and his legal team have “massive proof” of election fraud in Pennsylvania despite efforts to certify the results. “Specific allegations were made, and we have massive proof, in the Pennsylvania case. Some people just don’t want to see it. They want nothing to do with saving our Country. Sad!!!” Trump tweeted Saturday. His remarks come after a Pennsylvania federal judge ruled Friday that the state’s election was likely unconstitutional over mail-in ballots, effectively giving legislators the power to choose electors. Another Source Video Trump had held a briefing Thursday summarizing his legal team’s evidence in several battleground states, adding it would be difficult to concede given the evidence they have. “It’s going to be a very hard thing to concede because we know there was massive fraud,” Trump said. “As to whether or not we can get this apparatus moving quickly – because time isn’t on our side, everything else is on our side, facts are on our side, this was a massive fraud.”
Democrats are cheating in runoff Georgia Senate races

U.S. Rep. Chris Stewart, R-Utah, alleged earlier this week that Democrats are cheating in key U.S. Senate races in Georgia and announced that he and other members of Utah’s congressional delegation will raise money to help the GOP candidates in the races. Georgia will hold two runoff elections on Jan. 5 for the race between Democratic candidate Jon Ossoff and Sen. David Perdue, R-Ga., as well as the race between Democrat Raphael Warnock and Republican Sen. Kelly Loeffler, The Associated Press reported. If Democrats win the Georgia races, they will have a majority in the Senate. Stewart took to social media Tuesday to warn that “our country is under attack and the Georgia Senate races are the last line of defense.” “We’re all looking forward to Thanksgiving, spending time with our families, so much to be thankful for,” Stewart said in a video posted on Twitter. “But there’s something else that’s coming that is very, very important. I need your help. In fact, America needs your help. These two Senate races are critical to our future.” “The Democrats are desperate to win these two seats,” the Utah congressman continued. “If they do, then they have absolute power. They will change our nation forever. We cannot let them do that. That’s why they’re cheating. That’s why they’re encouraging people to move to Georgia. They’re coaching them on how to register and how to vote.” Stewart did not provide any specific examples or evidence of cheating or voter fraud in the Georgia races. Stewart’s comments echo claims regarding widespread voter fraud made by President Donald Trump in the days and weeks that followed the general election, which was called for Democrat Joe Biden. Multiple lawsuits filed by the Trump campaign in multiple states alleging voter fraud including lawsuits in Michigan and Pennsylvania. Stewart announced he and other members of Utah’s congressional delegation — including Rep.-elect Burgess Owens, Rep.-elect Blake Moore, Rep. John Curtis and Sen Mike Lee — will participate in a fundraiser Monday to raise money for the Georgia Senate races. “Again, we need your help,” Stewart repeated in the video. “If you donate, I will match up to $10,000. Together, we can make a difference. None of us will keep a penny of this. This is all going to Georgia to these critical races.” “They’re pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into this race,” he added. “We have to do the same thing.” More information about Stewart’s fundraising efforts are available at http://secure.winred.com/senate-georgia-battleground-fund/joint-cstewart.
Fake Votes Found at Wisconsin Recount in Dane County

The Wisconsin recount of the 2020 election ballots is currently underway. According to our source on the ground: More than 2,000 fake votes were found at the Wisconsin Recount in Dane County on Friday! * On Black Friday, there were so many Trump observers that two dozen of them had nowhere to sit, and had to back upstairs and watch on closed circuit TV. * Thousands of fake votes were found! The signature “MLW” was used on the the fake votes. These initials were found on thousands of “votes” by “indefinitely confined” people. Joe Biden reportedly won Wisconsin after a huge dump of votes were dropped in the middle of the night, Biden only votes, to put him ahead of President Donald Trump. Joe Biden currently ‘leads’ the state by around 20,000 votes. In this photo, the fake votes are the two piles on the right.
