The relationship between Wisconsin’s Elections Commission, state lawmakers, and voters is not improving. Members of the legislature’s rulemaking body on Tuesday criticized the commission for once again failing to vote on rules for ballot drop boxes in the state. “While WEC appears to be moving toward partial compliance with JCRAR’s January 10th motion, it appears to have no interest in submitting its policies on drop boxes to the Legislature,” Republican members of the Joint Committee for Review of Administrative Rules said in a statement.
“It appears WEC has no interest in complying with JCRAR’s motion requiring them to submit their drop box policies to the Legislature,” the Republicans wrote. “If WEC does not change course, it will be a blatant violation of the law and the Legislature’s oversight, and we will be discussing options with our colleagues to compel WEC to follow the law.”
On Monday, The Elections Commission voted to send guidance to local election clerks allowing them to "cure" ballots by filling in missing information without having to contact the actual voter. Wisconsin law does not allow for this. JCRAR is likely to scuttle that guidance. “If WEC submits a rule to the Legislature addressing ballot curing, we are fully prepared to suspend it if we and our legislative colleagues deem it necessary,” their statement read.
The arrogance of these unelected election officials has truly gone off the deep end. As we have seen recently, various state courts have come back with several decisions that have invalidated the variety of "covid" related changes to the election put forth by executive orders and commission "guidance" that violated the legislative laws. From ballots being mailed out en-masse, to drop boxes, to ballot curing, to not checking for signatures, many of these orders have been determined by the courts to be unlawful.
But what happens when election commissions choose to ignore the law and ignore the courts and just continue to provide guidances and such that are in violation of the laws? This appears to be the struggle right now in Wisconsin. What does a ballot counter do when the law and the courts say that they cannot cure a ballot, but their immediate supervisors tell them to do so anyways?
It appears that these commissions are now drunk on their own power after 2020, realizing that they can alter the laws with "guidance" knowing that there is little that can be done to stop it. Something needs to done. Georgia fixed this by literally creating criminal charges for local officials who do not follow areas of election law. This should be done in each state to make sure that neither the commision, local election officials, or election workers can skirt the law claiming to be following guidance. Follow the law or be charged with a crime. That is how things are supposed to work.

THESE DEVELOPMENTS ARE FAR MORE IMPORTANT
House Select Panel Adopts Prosecution Tactics
February 5, 2022 at 4:48 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 24 Comments
“The House select committee scrutinizing the Jan. 6 assault on the Capitol is borrowing techniques from federal prosecutions, employing aggressive tactics typically used against mobsters and terrorists as it seeks to break through stonewalling from former President Donald Trump and his allies and develop evidence that could prompt a criminal case,”
the New York Times reports.
“In what its members see as the best opportunity to hold Mr. Trump and his team accountable, the committee — which has no authority to pursue criminal charges — is using what powers it has in expansive ways in hopes of pressuring Attorney General Merrick Garland to use the Justice Department to investigate and prosecute them.”
THE FOLLOWING ALONE WAS ILLEGAL AND SHOULD BE PROSECUTABLE:
Trump Regularly Destroyed Official Documents
February 5, 2022 at 4:46 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 44 Comments
Washington Post:
“Although glimpses of Trump’s penchant for ripping were reported earlier in his presidency — including by Politico in 2018 — the House select committee’s investigation into the Jan. 6 insurrection has shined a new spotlight on the practice. The Washington Post reported that some of the White House records the National Archives and Records Administration turned over the committee appeared to have been torn apart and then taped back together.
“Interviews with 11 former Trump staffers, associates, and others familiar with the habit reveal that Trump’s shredding of paper was far more widespread and indiscriminate than previously known and — despite multiple admonishments — extended throughout his presidency, resulting in special practices to deal with the torn fragments.”
WHEN WILL TRUMP'S ARREST BE COMING?
AND HE CANNOT PARDON HIMSELF.

Ch is gone.
He will either escape or Moscow or die alone in prison.
Investigators also sought a broad swath of phone records from Ali Alexander, a right-wing rally organizer who was cooperating with the committee, for two months before Jan. 6, 2021 — well before he claims to have thought of planning an event that day — and for one month after.
Late last month, another example of the panel’s investigative approach emerged. Mr. Jones, the conspiracy theorist, who has sued the committee, was questioned by investigators in a virtual interview. He later said on his radio show that in the interview he had invoked his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination nearly 100 times.
“I just had a very intense experience being interrogated by the Jan. 6 committee lawyers,” he said. “They were polite, but they were dogged.”
Even though Mr. Jones refused to share information with the committee, he said the investigators seemed to have found ways around his lack of cooperation. He said the committee had already obtained text messages from him.
“They have everything that’s already on my phones and things,” he said. “I saw my text messages” with political organizers tied to the Jan. 6 rally.

Wisconsin high court won't take challenge over ballot boxes
MADISON, Wis. (AP) ' A divided Wisconsin Supreme Court on Friday rejected Republican gubernatorial candidate Rebecca Kleefisch's request that it take her lawsuit challenging guidance over absentee ballot boxes, an issue the court is already considering in another case.
The fight is being closely watched in battleground Wisconsin as Republicans there push to limit access to absentee ballots following President Joe Biden's narrow win over Donald Trump in 2020. Democratic Gov. Tony Evers and Republican U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson are on the ballot in November.
The state Supreme Court's three liberal justices were joined by conservative Justice Brian Hagedorn, who sometimes sides with the liberals, in declining to take Kleefisch's case. The majority did not give a reason for not taking the case before it has worked its way through lower courts.
The court in June also refused to take another legal challenge to ballot boxes before lower courts had heard the case, which was brought by a conservative business owner.
Kleefisch, who served eight years as lieutenant governor under Scott Walker, vowed to fight on.
Scott Walker is one of the craziest Republicans in the country right now.
The court system has been great news since election day
Cut your motherfucking head off
Because Biden won with a record turnout of voters in history the Republican party is scared to death about the voice of the people.
They are frightened by as Republicans there push to limit access to absentee ballots following President Joe Biden's narrow win over Donald Trump in 2020. D
Democratic Gov. Tony Evers and Republican U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson are on the ballot in November.

U.S. Warns of Grim Toll if Putin Invades Ukraine
February 5, 2022 at 7:40 pm EST By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment
“Senior Biden administration officials told lawmakers this past week that they believed the Russian military had assembled 70 percent of the forces it would need to mount a full invasion of Ukraine, painting the most ominous picture yet of the options that Russia’s president, Vladimir Putin, has created for himself in recent weeks,” the New York Times reports.
“During six hours of closed meetings with House and Senate lawmakers on Thursday, the officials warned that if Mr. Putin chose the most aggressive of his options, he could quickly surround or capture Kyiv, the capital, and remove the country’s democratically elected president, Volodymyr Zelensky.
"They also warned that the invasion could prompt an enormous refugee crisis on the European continent, sending millions fleeing.”
Roger AND the Reverend about both showing their addictive natures. We know Roger is prone because he is an admitted alcoholic but the Reverends possibly as bad.
But like any addiction, the first step is admitting is. The idea that neither of them can let go to a riot from over a year ago and their manic interest in Donald Trump is disturbing.
If you asked either of them to go even one week without talking about Trump or Jan 6th they would break into cold sweats and sacrifice their testicles rather than not keep up their unhealthy and unnatural obsession!
What if CNN were to sell to Donald Trump and rename itself TNN? “All Trump, All the Time” could be the slogan. The ratings would soar, you have to admit. He could run his rallies 24/7 and hire his former appointees.
And it would be Pravda under Trump if he is elected by a minority.
Scott you are the only address person here today.
If you would quit supporting Trump you would break into cold sweats and sacrifice your testicles rather than not keep up your unhealthy and unnatural obsession!
Take step one and admit failure and start your life as a real Republican ..

James and I and others care about The United States of America, not Democrats or Republicans
If Ch had an issue as potent as Trump's attempted overthrow of an election by trying to get Pence to lie and trying to get state officials to lie, and encouraging people to attempt a coup at the Capitol, Ch would not let go of it.

Friday like I said, was a day on which future battle lines were being drawn inside the Republican Party, with a handful of elected officials, including Sen. Mitt Romney (Utah), standing up for Cheney and Kinzinger while so many others, symbolized by the RNC, following along Trump’s dangerous path. Other revelations during the past week provided additional reminders of just how serious Trump, his advisers and especially some of the conspiracy theorists trying to influence him were about trying to delay, disrupt and possibly overturn the election through the extraordinary use of government power. Reminders, too, of the stakes ahead.
The New York Times reported that weeks after the election, Trump asked his personal lawyer and adviser Rudolph W. Giuliani to check with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to see whether the government could legally take possession of voting machines in some key states. Giuliani was told DHS lacked such authority. Trump reportedly had raised the issue of seizing voting machines with then-Attorney General William P. Barr, who according to the Times, also told Trump the Justice Department had no such authority — and that there was no evidence of a crime in the conduct of the election.
The Washington Post reported on efforts by Trump’s outside allies, who prepared a memo calling on Trump to use the powers of the National Security Agency and the Defense Department to go through raw intelligence with the hope of showing that foreign powers had tampered with election results. “Proof of foreign interference would ‘support next steps to defend the Constitution in a manner superior to current civilian-only judicial remedies,’ ” the memo stated, according to The Post’s reporting. The words “in a manner superior” to the courts is a chilling suggestion of the use of extrajudicial powers.
The House committee investigating the events surrounding what happened on Jan. 6 continues to gather evidence, including documents from the Trump White House, and will hold public hearings later this year and issue a report after that. Expect more revelations in the months ahead.
Still strong is the belief that because it didn’t happen, it can’t happen. Yet Trump continues to reveal himself, his true motives and perhaps what he would do if he were again to become president. No one should be surprised.

From Jeff Bezos to Joe Biden, noted Sinophiles and racists litter the landscape of the left. For where there is slavery (China), and racist social division to be sown (America), there is enormous profit to be made.
It is an established fact that leading Democrats are cliché-spewing tools who emote out of the southern end of their alimentary canals and whose neurotic hysteria sets the national agenda. Yet they have amassed quite a lemming-like following of true believers, progressive foot soldiers who think things have not gone "far enough" in terms of silencing, humiliating, and otherwise eliminating the universal scourge of "whiteness itself."
Their lust for tribal blood sport coupled with an insatiable sadism, white progressives (Baizuo, in Mandarin) churn bilge from their deep reservoirs of racial obsession, seeking strength in numbers by deliberately fomenting additional racism among America's ethnic minorities in order to bring about the "deconstruction" of white people and America itself.
According to many of society's leading cultural and political figures, white America's racism is institutional and "structural," in the feng shui of the nation — the upholstery, the very plumbing — and is ineradicable. Unless, it goes without saying, white people themselves are eradicated.
Echoing socialist heroes like George Bernard Shaw, countless white university professors have repeatedly proposed and promoted a proto- if not outright genocide against members of their own race. And, like Shaw, these genocide-minded Caucasians carved out an exemption for themselves and their progressive fellow travelers on the grounds that, in their telling, they are "anti-racist" (could they be any more Orwellian?) and, thus enlightened, are brimming with unbridled virtue when they advocate for the mass murder of white people.
The white left's racial fixations and hoaxes dominate the news cycle, as race is injected into all manner of subject matter having nothing whatsoever to do with race. Yet, from Jeff Zucker to Mark Zuckerberg, progressives couldn't give a whit what conservatives think of them; the celestial beings in the blue jerseys on team (D) don't care when conservatives notice that they are censorious fascists, racists, and moral perverts because conservatives are subhuman vermin to the left.
The overwhelming majority of interracial crime, daily murders, rapes, armed robberies, carjackings, and generalized mayhem are committed in our bluest cities by people of which political persuasion, governed by people from which political party? Democrat voters, government bureaucrats, and Democrat politicians dance together in perfectly choreographed harmony to perpetuate the squalor, crime, amorality, nihilism, and indolence that ravage large American cities and shred America's social cohesion.
Should we surrender and be hung like Mike Pence
Somehow, the city-dwellers of Team Blue are able to square the discomfiting cognitive circle by projection, deflecting all blame onto distant ranchers, law-abiding churchgoers (racists! science deniers! members of the patriarchy!), and rural people in red towns and counties far removed from major urban areas.
Many city-dwelling Democrat voters later seek to escape the consequences their progressive policies have wrought by colonizing red states, whereupon they immediately register as (Ds) and seek to replicate the same disastrous social, moral, and fiscal conditions they left behind. Call it the blue gentrification of red states.
Democrat voters are incapable of basic moral distinctions because most are banal, bigoted, amoral people. Polls show a large majority of registered Democrats seethe with hatred for conservatives, and that hatred has no limiting principle. It leads to an open question: how far are progressive voters and their leaders willing to go with their irrational, all-consuming hatred? Are wood-chippers and Zyklon B in the mix, or do they too not go "far enough"?

Citing chapter and verse of the Left's voluminous racial hypocrisies is a fool's errand when a somnambulant electorate is distracted by bread and circuses, internet diversions, COVID on the marquee, and the latest media-manufactured red herring.
The sheer daily ubiquity of university quackademics, pop culture celebrities, sports stars, media personalities, corporate CEOs, Big Tech publishers, and Democrat politicians calling for the dismantling (destruction, annihilation, extirpation, incineration, evisceration, erasure, et al.) of "whiteness itself" renders examples utterly superfluous. All are clever euphemisms for incitement to genocide.
Too unthinkable to contemplate? Never forget that the left almost always gets what it wants, has a well-established track record, and has no limiting principle.

New Jan. 6 Footage Shows Capitol Rioter Threatening To 'Cut Their Head Off'
The video was released hours after the GOP said Capitol rioters were engaging in "legitimate political discourse."
Newly released video from the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack shows a Texas man ranting about a “stolen” presidential election and calling for elected officials to be publicly killed.
“Cut their head off!” he yells at one point.
Its release by the Justice Department came just hours after top Republican Party officials issued a resolution on Friday stating that the people who mobbed the Capitol had engaged in “legitimate political discourse.”
The man in the video, Ryan Nichols, was arrested in the days after the attack and pleaded guilty to all of the charges against him, which include assault with a crowbar and pepper spray. His case is still pending in federal court.
Nichols filmed himself talking about Vice President Mike Pence, whom President Donald Trump told his supporters had the power to overturn the result of a presidential election during the official certification process ― an idea that is false. At his “Stop the Steal” rally held directly before the attack on the Capitol, Trump had expressed his hope that Pence would do his bidding and intervene. Pence did not.
“I’m hearing reports that Pence caved,” Nichols says in the video. “I’m telling you, if Pence caved, we’re gonna drag motherfuckers through the streets.”
“You fucking politicians are gonna get fucking drug through the streets! Because we’re not going to have our fucking shit stolen,” he says to cheers from the Trump supporters around him.
"Cut their head off!" Nichols says. "Republican protestors are trying to enter the House right now at the Capitol is the word that I’m getting. So if that’s true, then get up in there. If you voted for treason, we’re going to drag your ass through the streets."
—
“I’m telling you right now, Ryan Nichols said it: If you voted for fucking treason, we’re gonna drag your fucking ass through the street,” he exclaims, later adding: “So let us find out, let the patriots find out you fucking treasoned this country!”
Nichols was charged alongside a friend, Alex Harkrider. Court documents show how the men posted about their involvement in the riot to Facebook.
At one point outside the Capitol, Nichols allegedly shouted a call to arms into a bullhorn: “If you have a weapon, you need to get your weapon!”
His trial is set to begin in July.
The video was released hours after the GOP said Capitol rioters were engaging in "legitimate political discourse."
