I Was In Philadelphia Watching Fraud Happen Here's How It Went Down
At issue was President Trump’s request for an order changing the way Pennsylvania absentee and mail-in ballots are being reviewed at the Philadelphia Convention Centre.
By Jerome M. Marcus
NOVEMBER 10, 2020


Legacy media are lying when they claim that all of President Trump’s allegations of voter fraud are baseless. I know, because I argued a case on the president’s behalf in federal court in Philadelphia.

At issue was President Trump’s request for an order changing the way Pennsylvania absentee and mail-in ballots are being reviewed at the Philadelphia Convention Centre. CNN and others claim he "lost." That's false: he won. As I made that argument on behalf of the president’s campaign, I can tell you what really happened.

President Trump went to court about two problems: First, only a handful of Republican observers—substantially fewer than the Democrats had there—were being admitted to the room at the Philadelphia Convention Centre where inspections were being conducted. Second, the few who could get in weren’t permitted to get close enough to see what was actually happening. The most important questions all have to ask are: Why all the hiding? What’s being hidden?

At the Convention Centre counting location, I personally observed dozens of Trump campaign volunteers being barred from the counting room even though they’d been properly registered as observers. That’s why I urged Pam Bondi and Corey Lewandowski, who were on the scene, to authorize the filing of a request that a federal court order the Board of Elections to stop this nonsense.

More hiding: despite a binding order of the state’s Commonwealth Court, the handful of Republican observers who could get into the room weren’t being allowed up to the barrier set at six feet from the closest tables where work was being done. So even though they were in the room where it was happening, they had no way to tell what was happening. If there’s no fraud, why is the Democrat-controlled Board of Elections unwilling to let people get close enough to actually see what its people are doing?

So on a borrowed laptop at around 2 p.m. on election day, I typed up a very short document to start a federal lawsuit and to request that the federal court intervene to prohibit these unfair practices. At about 4:30 p.m., its filing was authorized by the campaign.

The federal judge ordered a hearing that began at 5:30 p.m. and went for two hours. In open court, the judge compelled the Board of Elections to agree that the Republicans could have up to 60 representatives in the room. That was a huge victory, not only for Republicans but for anyone who actually wants to have a vote tabulation worthy of belief.

He also compelled the board to agree that all observers, Democrat or Republican, could get up to the six-foot barrier. While the Democrats claimed that of course, of course, they had always been letting people in and letting them up to the barrier, I had a long list of witnesses who were prepared to testify that this was false. The judge told the defendants pointedly that if they didn’t do what they’d promised in his courtroom they would, he had plenty of authority to make them keep their word.

Having secured this agreement from the Board of Elections, the court dismissed the president’s motion for court-ordered relief as moot. Courts often do that when they secure an agreement between the parties. It means the court doesn’t have to issue an order, which would be appealable, granting or denying the motion, and it means the court doesn’t have to write an opinion. What it doesn’t mean is that the request made on behalf of President Trump to stop the election fraud was moot, despite the false spin CNN and other mainstream media put on it. All of this was a victory for President Trump and anyone else who believes in open government.

I’m no longer surprised by anti-Trump non-news coming from the likes of CNN. But I cannot imagine why Pennsylvania Republican leaders have suggested there’s no reason to think that anything wrong or fraudulent is going on in the counting of Pennsylvania’s votes.

If that were true, why in the world would the Democratic-controlled city government be working so hard to keep Republicans out of the room where those votes are being counted? In a world where every car that drives down the street is on video, why isn’t all of this counting being conducted in broad daylight, under watchful eyes? What do they have to hide?

Other people have gathered substantial evidence that there are indeed things to hide, including this video showing, among other things, footage of government officials wearing Joe Biden facemasks filling in blanks in already-submitted mail-in votes. The hearing I attended wasn’t about that, but it was about the conditions that make that possible.

No one who wants a legitimate vote count should be working to keep observers out of the room where the votes are counted. Yet for some reason the City of Philadelphia sent three lawyers, including the city solicitor himself, to a hearing to try to persuade a federal judge that he shouldn’t even bother addressing President Trump’s request.

Fortunately, the federal judge didn’t take that advice, and he forced the Board of Elections to do the right thing. I call that a solid victory for everyone—except for those with something to hide. For some reason, all of this hiding was being done by Democrats, for Biden.

No, the evil that Democrats are has always been here, it's Republicans that have been suppressing it and giving America the good image it has, people just don't pay attention to it. The difference now is that democrats are desperate because the deadline for the new world other is 2024 and that's why they don't care about the shame they are bringing to the US with all of these. They must get to power even if the entire country sinks.

The last day of evil I think because for the first time, science is aligning with the word of God and we are in a special grace time.

The ancient Mayan calendar is ending in dec. Yellow cube/project looking glass can't see beyond dec and Jupiter will cover Saturn also by dec. All these do not mean a disaster is coming because that won't be fair to the innocent. I think it's going to mark the end of human knowledge and the beginning of uninterrupted Gods judgement. I no dey go church oo neither am I reading the Bible but I promised to get me the cutest Bible I can find for Christmas, I'm going to be a better person next year.

According to biblical eschatology, the anti-Christ will begin his 7 year rule after the church has been caught out in the air with Christ, and if 2024 is the year the One world order is to begin that means that the rapture can happen anytime from now. We should pray that the rule of law prevails and the rightful winner is declared for us to have a period of grace before they start their One World Order.

"The Blue Mirage"

The Blue Mirage – Ben Garrison Cartoon
Ben Garrison November 12, 20200

"Biden is President-Elect because we said so," Fake News.
I occasionally tune into CNN to observe the Democratic propaganda du jour.



I expected to hear outrage that Trump hasn't conceded and that’s exactly what I got. The CNN talking heads nattered on about how unfounded Trump’s accusations of voting fraud were and that he had no proof. They claimed that even Trump’s staffers were urging him to accept his defeat for the good of the country. Then they went on about how important it was for Biden to be included in daily presidential briefings.

Then it got even more ridiculous. John Brennan, the ex-CIA head under Obama, went on about how he swore to defend his country from enemies foreign and domestic. Then he lit into Trump and said Pence needed to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump before he committed some reckless action. This is clear treason by Brennan. Trump is a lawfully-elected president who not only should contest the election stolen by the commie Brennan and his ilk, but also he deserves to finish out his term if he’s unsuccessful. Brennan wants Trump rushed out of office as soon as possible, probably in order to protect his own backside from a well-deserved prosecution for his involvement in the Democrat-concocted Trump/Russia collusion case, now thoroughly discredited.

Biden has already been congratulated by world leaders. Big deal—it means nothing, but the legacy media want Biden’s election to appear to have a solid foundation. In reality, it rests on shifting sand.

Biden has set up 'The Office of The President-Elect,' which is laughable. There is no such thing, but the Democrats are heavily underlining Biden's supposed legitimacy while silencing anyone who questions it. The Democrat legacy media express their incredulity that anyone could possibly question anything less than a squeaky-clean election of Biden. Silicon Valley social media are engaged in their usual censorship of election doubters. Apparently, anyone who questions the Democrat narrative is nothing more than 'conspiracy theorists.'

It's important for the Democrats to create a mirage of Biden’s presidency. Wishing will make it so. A fait accompli. Or so they hope.

Those hopes need to be dashed. The Democrats ruthlessly stole the presidential election and they must not be allowed to get away with it.
