What in the world … ?Apparently, to use Dave Wasserman‘s phrase, Adam Frisch has seen enough — even though the state of Colorado by statute has not. While his challenge to Lauren Boebert for the CO-3 race will have to undergo a mandatory recount, Frisch has decided to throw in the towel. He conceded to Boebert a few minutes ago:“The voters have spoken and while we showed great progress, I remain down by a few hundred votes. This small margin triggers an automatic recount in Colorado’s election system. This recount is what Colorado voters have asked for in order to...

A news blackout may have helped propel Biden to victory, but questions regarding the Bidens have not gone away.But he also owes his victory to the groundwork laid by Democrats and their media allies one year before, during the first impeachment of Donald Trump over his supposedly strings-attached demand that the Ukrainian government investigate alleged corruption involving Biden’s son, Hunter.The first impeachment failed to oust Trump from office, but it helped secure the White House for Biden. It shielded him from scrutiny, enabling him and his supporters to cast allegations during the campaign about dubious Biden family business ties as...

One of the lawyers heading former President Donald Trump’s defense at his second impeachment trial did what Trump himself has not: conceded Joe Biden won the presidential election. — In opening remarks Tuesday, lawyer Bruce Castor said: “The American people just spoke, and they just changed administrations.” He added that Americans are “smart enough to pick a new administration if they don’t like the old one, and they just did.” The comments by Castor, a former county prosecutor in Pennsylvania, were a surprising contrast to Trump’s defiance. The former president repeatedly disputed the results of the election, falsely claiming he...

Former President Donald Trump has added two former federal prosecutors to his impeachment defense team, according to one of the lawyers. Greg Harris told the Associated Press that he and former acting U.S. Attorney Johnny Gasser were added to the team. A call to the private practice the men co-founded wasn’t immediately returned, nor were emailed inquiries. Harris was a federal prosecutor in the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of South Carolina, specializing in the prosecution of white-collar crimes. His biography says he views the experience as one that helps him obtain the best results for the clients he...

One thing is certain. If President Trump goes down on January 6, 2020, the day Congress convenes to count Electoral College votes, he will not go down without a final fight. In a series of Saturday tweets, Trump cited the recently released report from Peter Navarro, director of the Office of Trade and Manufacturing Policy, in which Navarro outlined several examples of voting irregularities, which he claimed are “more than sufficient” to swing the outcome of the election in President Trump’s favor.Navarro’s lengthy report reads in part, as reported by Washington Examiner:The 36-page report “assesses the fairness and integrity of...

President Trump has called for a protest in Washington, D.C. on January 6, 2020. Perhaps this post can serve as a signup sheet for those Freepers who will be visiting D.C. in anger on that date.

House Republican Conference Chair Rep. Liz Cheney (WY) on Saturday called on President Donald Trump to either produce evidence of election fraud or accept the results of the election, meaning Joe Biden would be the next president. “America is governed by the rule of law. The President and his lawyers have made claims of criminality and widespread fraud, which they allege could impact election results. If they have genuine evidence of this, they are obligated to present it immediately in court and to the American people," Cheney said in a statement. "I understand that the President has filed more than...

There are two primary symptoms of Trump Derangement Syndrome. The first is unbridled hatred of all things Donald Trump, from hating everything he does, says, or tweets, to at its extreme, wishing death on the man, often in the most hideous manner possible. The second symptom is uncontrollable fits of lying: lies about Trump; lies about facts and history; even lies about themselves. The latter was on full display on yesterday’s episode of television’s version of a newsstand liberal rag, “The View,” when View-meister Whoopi Goldberg, with a straight face, admonished supporters of Trump to “suck it up” and accept...

Hillary Clinton has some advice for Joe Biden: If it is a close race on election night, do “not concede under any circumstances.” In a clip from an interview with her former campaign staffer Jennifer Palmieri on Showtime’s docu-series “The Circus,” the failed 2016 presidential candidate was asked what she thought President Trump and the Republican Party would do if Biden triumphed in November. Clinton speculated the GOP would try “messing up absentee balloting” and would launch lengthy legal battles with an army of lawyers to contest the result. The Trump campaign has already begun suing states like New Jersey...

Sunday, October 23, 2016 Will Hillary Accept Defeat? Posted by Daniel Greenfield The headlines are in. Trump is the “anti-Democratic” candidate because he refuses to rule out challenging the results of an election that has yet to take place. Such a course of action is “beyond the pale”. It’s a threat to democracy. And it is utterly and thoroughly unacceptable. Except when Democrats do it. It was the day after the election. While the Democratic Party faithful waited in the rain in Nashville, William Daley strode out and announced, “Our campaign continues”. Al Gore had called George W. Bush to...

Senior advisers to Senator Hillary Clinton have prepared the ground for her to abandon her presidential ambitions within days rather than disputing the Democratic nomination all the way to the party convention in August. Senator Barack Obama is expected to be able to declare himself the party's candidate against Senator John McCain as early as tomorrow, when South Dakota and Montana become the final states to hold their primaries. Howard Dean, the Democratic National Committee chairman, said the nomination would be decided this week: "We don't want to go to the convention, have a big fight at the convention, and...

Hillary Clinton has revealed the crushing phone call she received from Barack Obama hours before Donald Trump was elected president in November 2016. Before it was announced that the former First Lady had lost out on making history, the former leader reached out and reportedly told her to admit defeat. Speaking in her documentary Hillary, which is streaming on Sky and NOWTV, said: ‘The television commentators and the AP [Associated Press], were calling it for Trump and Obama called me and he said, “I’m really sorry but you probably should concede”. ‘I said, “I’m not going to concede until the...

After suffering a loss in the 2016 presidential election herself, Hillary Clinton is warning 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden not to concede “under any circumstances” in the upcoming election to avoid falling victim to Republican efforts to disrupt the vote count. In an interview with The Circus on Showtime, the former secretary of state accused Republicans of trying to “mess up” absentee balloting to gain “a narrow advantage in the electoral college.” She claimed that in Wisconsin’s primary in April, Republicans “did everything they could to mess up voting.” “But because courts had ordered absentee ballots to be counted...
