12-13 MILLION FRAUDULENT "MAIL-IN BALLOTS WERE INTEGRATED” INTO THE 2020 ELECTION – "AND THAT'S JUST IN THE NORTH…THERE WAS SOMETHING SIMILAR GOING ON IN THE SOUTH." - PATRICK BYRNE
There are so many corrupt players embedded in most key positions within the US, that I’m amazed the country has functioned at all. The nefarious have been busy preparing for at least a century to take the country down. The enemy is within...proceed accordingly.
The Postmaster General is Louis Dejoy, who was a Trump supporter and was appointed by Trump. So, why is the USPS doing this illegal stuff helping Demonrats? It's all very confusing.
From my reading I've also gathered that these fake ballots that have been prefilled out and shipped have no barcodes on them and weren't even folded. So, why did election workers count these obviously wonky ballots. It seems to me that election workers processing these absentee ballots need to have a large trash can on hand so they can dispose of suspicious ballots and there needs to be another worker there that regularly takes these to a shredder.
I worked the TCF building in Detroit the day after the election and watched the cheat FULL ON. When the ballot had no barcode it was given to someone who had about 40 pages of names that "were late registrations". Every single name was checked off as if they were on the list, until a substitute came in and asked what he was to do. Suddenly, almost all of the ballots were deemed "not on the list". I called my attorney over and they screamed 911 for the police (inside the building) and they escorted him out of the building. They called me Satan, Cracker, my kids were spawns of satan and other colorful names. So much more to what I witnessed. I did fill out an affidavit.
I'm glad you did fill out an affidavit. At least you documented it. But as we saw with Giuliani's efforts with affidavits in 2020, he was not able to get any traction with them whatsoever. ALL the evidence of election fraud was ignored by the courts, by law enforcement, by Congress, by SCOTUS, by the military, all of which were tasked with acting on election fraud. Trump actually did nothing and what verbal protests he made were treated by the media and the corrupt government as courting insurrection....something the Democrats themselves and their weaponized FBI/DOJ created on Jan 6 to make it look like Trump led people were disrupting the Electoral College count to sabotage the election. It was a very successful effort. The 2020 election was a cabal coup, only one of many, large and small, that have reduced this nation to constitutional rubble. It's still going on and we may see a repeat this November unless efforts behind the scenes, like those of Patrick Byrne, prevail. We won't know until the election, but what happens there will be a very big tell of our present state and a sure prediction of what's to come.
Yes, that would be the ideal scenario, to hold the unfolded, no-barcode ballots for evidence. But that could get quite tricky. Who holds them? Who's going to protect the evidence? Unless you have an intimidating, armed presence literally there at the table where absentee ballots are being counted and escorting the evidence to whatever secure location in which it's being stored, the poll workers involved would be in grave danger. And then there's the possibility of the storage place being blown up. My thought is, if the tainted ballots are immediately shredded, perhaps after taking a picture of them, it seems like a safer option.
There's always the possibility that Dejoy went to the dark side. The USPS is important to their schemes and they would almost certainly have given him the silver or lead option. Maybe Diddy filmed him in bed with a 3-year old.....or with Diddy himself.... It's not out of the question, seeing that's how things get done with the cabal.
About Asheville's water - where I work, in West Adheville, we are only using it to flush toilets. I'm still bringing water from my well, or using bottled water, and heating it for sponge baths & dish washing. That brown water just don't look good enough to us, even if it's boiled. But it is better than no water at all.
I agree with you but I don’t have a well, I live in an apartment complex and I’m too busy and under-funded to check into a hotel, away from this disaster zone.
I’d had one shower in 3 weeks, that one being over a week before the one I took yesterday. I had bottomed-out with demoralization and the shower did a lot to improve my mental state.
There have reportedly been several very serious toxic spills from paper mills, plastic factories, etc upstream into the French Broad River, which will affect the wildlife for many years and I probably exposed myself to carcinogens yesterday.
The authorities said it was “safe” to shower. Just like the vaxx lol.
Recently, I made a donation of several hundred dollars to the hope of Ashville. I wonder, has it made it to it's mark? I donated through a trusted source, yet I have understood, much of this was deflected by the fuckers at large! Sickening, as I do not have the opportunity to come your way at present. Although, I DO, AND AM SENDING PRAYERS AND LOVING BLESSINGS.
Do not bathe in the dregs - they are no better than that of Proctor and Gamble, Colgate and the rest of these life suckers. Use wet naps from a trusted source. Clean the pits, undercarriage and teeth, the rest will be okay if left for a time. I know, have done without for a considerable time - Just brush the oils to the ends of the hair and it will shine like a diamond in a goats butt!!!
I understand the hardship, But I know, you got this sisters n brothers. Be strong, walk toward the goodness and the light - Where we shall come together to fight the good fight.
I've been doing the baby wipes for 3+ weeks. I think I'll probably do one actual shower per week until the water runs clear. It looks like poop water right now - but at least, I can run the dishwasher and the kitchen is no longer a Death Zone of rotting filth. I am a total clean freak and this is a real test.
Been doing birdy bathes for years - Nothing better than being clean, while leaving a bit of dirt behind. Of course, I live in the desert, where we were left to rot! So too, then are you's. Time for a change - We are the goodliness. Not they, them, those (d)evil spawns.
The Bolshevik Globalists could never win an election without massive voter fraud. Stalin said..."It's not who votes...it's who counts the votes that matters." Nazi George Soros funded the easily hacked Dominion machines.
John Darash has a way that has always interested me .... ? It's been a while since I have looked this stuff over but it is the direction that needs to taken from the bottom up.
I’ve said repeatedly that mail in ballots would be the weapons of choice for stealing this election. I cannot waste money on campaign contributions knowing this eventuality.
I think Patrick Byrne has done yoeman's work in this fight for a long time and more than once the emotional toll on him has been obvious. I wish him the best.
Isn't Patrick Byrne running with General Michael Flynn's group ? I ask this question because "The Bigger Truth" put something out yesterday that kind of blew the doors off any of the players around or next to him ? Things are still very murky and there appear to be so many players and the power being thrown around is extremely representative of their states of mind. What is everyone's else's take on this ? I lived in and around the Belly of the Beast, District of Corruption and I am still having a hard time with this shit !
My own brush with ⭐⭐⭐ was less than stellar, as he was part of the take-down of AMP, where the top three drivers of 95%+ of the traffic to the site were fired on the first day after the merger/acquisition – and the fourth one quit, because the new owners censored his first broadcast after the merger.
After the new CEO was made to fire everybody, she was fired – and then, the next CEO was fired! Very suspicious and weird. What did these people actually "acquire"? We were what made people watch and care about AMP. Once they got rid of us, nobody cares or watches them, anymore. AMP was swiftly destroyed.
I am not the most politically-savvy person in the world, but I have directed a friend who is, to read Scott McMahan's work and to tell me WTH is going on with ⭐⭐⭐. The answer appears to be something he cannot discuss over the phone!
I was friends with John Perry Barlow for 2 decades and he was friends with Patrick Byrne and he spoke very highly of him to me in the early 2000s, so that always predisposed me to like him and I have absolutely nothing but praise for the work Byrne has done to restore election integrity to our country. I am stumped by his affiliation with ⭐⭐⭐ but I am working on getting to the bottom of it.
I was a DHS employee for it's first 5 years of its existence. To think that our government is sorting this out is absolutely ludicrous and delirious thinking 🤔.
I would never say that "our government" is sorting this out. I would say that there are individuals at the periphery of our government, such as Patrick Byrne and a small handful of individuals who hold positions in our government, who are fighting back against this Satanic Communist takeover, to hopefully restore the Republic.
Our government is not our government. As you of course know. It's the corporate possession of the criminal cartel that runs the world. All three branches of this so called government are owned. When Americans see it that way, we will understand the scope of the problem and the only solution.
Alex.....unrelated to this (your) post today, but it's info that I think you/people living in 'your parts' should know (below). I got an email from Michael Arnone, who does a Crawfish Fest in NJ every year. (his website: http://www.crawfishfest.com/ ). This was the email that I got today......
In the wake of Hurricane Helene, bringing Jambalaya, with love to Burnsville, NC and Hendersonville, NC
Hi y'all
We are headed to NC
For Immediate Release. Springfield, LA – As hurricane Helene dumped historic amounts of rain in the mountains of North Carolina, a group of people in Louisiana watched, grateful that it wasn’t their turn for a hurricane. Experienced in the loss and devastation that a hurricane can bring, it is no surprise that when Tab Lobell of the Blood River Church of God, in Springfield, Louisiana heard from his pastor that people needed help, he decided to gather a group to provide assistance. Although major organizations do assist communities in recovery efforts, it is often the work of small groups that fill in the gaps, and provide where others might not be able to locate.
Guthrie Grove Church of South Carolina located in Pelzer, just outside of Greenville, is a sister church to the Blood River congregation. Members of the Guthrie Grover church relayed how Hendersonville, NC needed assistance. Six members of the local Louisiana congregation began to plan how they would assist folks in Hendersonville, NC, including Levi Walters, a native of Pelzer, South Carolina. Josh Patterson volunteered his pastalaya pots, Johnny Zigler, Chuck Mayeaux, Frank White, and Tab Lobell began recruiting volunteers to do necessary prep-work for the trip. Additionally, Lobell’s son-in-law had a classmate at LSU’s Dental School, now located in Burnsville, who said that Burnsville also needed assistance.
Knowing they would need a lot of experienced help to pull this off, Lobell asked an old friend, Baton Rouge native, Michael Arnone, if he could borrow some of his 45-gallon cast iron jambalaya pots that he uses for his annual Crawfish Fest in Augusta, NJ, for this trip. Arnone immediately agreed, and as he learned more about the trip, he felt he wanted to do more than loan the group a few of his jambalaya pots. Arnone’s own home had been damaged by flood waters previously, and was completed ruined by the Great Flood of 2016. When rebuilding, it was Tab Lobell who drove the piles for the new elevated home. The Jambalaya Pots that Arnone uses were cast at the Hardy & Newsome Forge in Lagrange, NC., and although he is not a member of the congregation, it was agreed that he would join the group because of his experience in feeding large crowds.
While Lobell, Patterson, and the congregation began working with volunteers, including members of Boy Scout Troop 172 of Albany/Springfield, LA, to complete necessary prep-work, along with the logistics of where to stay, where they would set-up to provide assistance, Michael and Tab began reaching out to their suppliers to secure donations to help defray costs including Sanderson Farms, S&W Foods, Savoie Foods, French Settlement Sausage, Bobby Lee Distributing, and Leidenheimer Bread, among others.
The group, in collaboration with volunteers from the Guthrie Grove Church of Pelzer, SC, will serve approximately 2400 servings of Jambalaya and Pastalaya over the weekend, distribute heaters, blankets, and toys for children on Saturday, October 19th, beginning at 5pm at the Save More Grocery Store located at 160 Reservoir Rd., and at Autostar, 401 Duncan Hill Rd. in Hendersonville, NC on Sunday, October 20th from 12pm – 8pm, with live Music from the Blue Ridge Rounders. To learn more and help with Blood River Church of God’s efforts related to hurricane relief, visit their website
When asked why he organized this trip on behalf of the Blood River Church of God, Lobell replied,
“We live in south Louisiana, where we have been affected by hurricanes, and floods on numerous occasions. We are often blessed with people coming in to lend a hand, and we would like to be that source of encouragement to others who have experienced the loss and challenges that we have experienced"
I was all over Cajun country with a film crew during the BP “oil spill” and I met some of the most wonderful people, there! They may be poor in $ but they are wealthy beyond compare in spirit!
Indeed! I lived in the NW corner of Louisiana (north of Shreveport) for a few years. And after I'd moved back home to CT, me and my Ex (he's a Redneck from La.) went down to Mardi Gras, in NO, one year. What a BLAST!
What I miss about living in La.......the River Boat Casino's and.....LOVE dem CRAWDAD'S! lol
Fun times living in Louisiana! Except for the goddamned HEAT!
The HUMIDITY made me cry. I was living in LA at the time and I hate LA with a passion but I practically kissed the ground when the plane landed back in LA, just to get out of the humidity and heat of Louisiana.
But I really was impressed by the Cajuns I met, interviewed and hung out with in small towns and ramshackle bars near Houma and Port Fourchon and all around there. It's a magical place.
We had a couple of mail in ballots sent to our house this year. One day, the Informed Delivery email showing us what mail was coming that day, showed two mail in ballots, but they didn't come until 2 days later. I thought that rather suspicious; what would be the delay? Did anyone else experience this?
No, instead, I have received numerous texts, telling me to “come get my mail-in ballot” and to enter my name, etc. The app then locates me and my Voting District and then, informs me that I am “not eligible” to receive a mail-in ballot in the upcoming election.
I suspect that if I were a registered Democrat, they would send me my mail-in ballot, immediately.
Voting records are public in my new state: https://www.ncsbe.gov/voting/your-voter-record (I moved to NC from NY in 2021) and, although I am a registered Independent, the two times that I’ve voted, I voted straight Republican down-the-line, because I don’t want NC to turn into NY.
I've watched the once beautiful city of Charlotte turn into a Progressive shithole. Serving on their new Small Business Board for certified diverse businesses was a great experience for me, I frequently sparred with a city attorney who made it clear he didn't like me - I asked all the wrong questions (caught City employees lying). I wanted transparency, they wanted to continue lying to their taxpayers. I handed off the baton to a deaf business woman who I thought would continue fighting for the underdogs, but her goals were the opposite of mine🤷♀️
Yes, both North & South Carolina are being invaded by Progressive Parasites - we must show up and vote.
glad you have water,consider a filter for your shower.....mail in ballots is not an accountable process. thanks for the post, we will succeed, blessings.
There are so many corrupt players embedded in most key positions within the US, that I’m amazed the country has functioned at all. The nefarious have been busy preparing for at least a century to take the country down. The enemy is within...proceed accordingly.
Those are the actual "domestic terrorists."
Thank you for covering this.

Or maybe separate them out and hold them for evidence.

What are we, the small people, supposed to do?
Seriously.
Without that 'civil war' no one wants, it seems there will be a purge of 98% of the population.
I just don't understand the complacency of mankind, other than the original words in the film that we have become too comfortable.
Well, I'm not comfortable.
I am with you, 100%. Very uncomfortable.
I have to give it up to God.
There are no atheists in foxholes.

In the wake of Hurricane Helene, bringing Jambalaya, with love to Burnsville, NC and Hendersonville, NC

Indeed! I lived in the NW corner of Louisiana (north of Shreveport) for a few years. And after I'd moved back home to CT, me and my Ex (he's a Redneck from La.) went down to Mardi Gras, in NO, one year. What a BLAST!
What I miss about living in La.......the River Boat Casino's and.....LOVE dem CRAWDAD'S! lol
Fun times living in Louisiana! Except for the goddamned HEAT!
The HUMIDITY made me cry. I was living in LA at the time and I hate LA with a passion but I practically kissed the ground when the plane landed back in LA, just to get out of the humidity and heat of Louisiana.
But I really was impressed by the Cajuns I met, interviewed and hung out with in small towns and ramshackle bars near Houma and Port Fourchon and all around there. It's a magical place.
YES!!!.....the HUMIDITY, too! Ugh! lol
We had a couple of mail in ballots sent to our house this year. One day, the Informed Delivery email showing us what mail was coming that day, showed two mail in ballots, but they didn't come until 2 days later. I thought that rather suspicious; what would be the delay? Did anyone else experience this?
No, instead, I have received numerous texts, telling me to “come get my mail-in ballot” and to enter my name, etc. The app then locates me and my Voting District and then, informs me that I am “not eligible” to receive a mail-in ballot in the upcoming election.
I suspect that if I were a registered Democrat, they would send me my mail-in ballot, immediately.
Voting records are public in my new state: https://www.ncsbe.gov/voting/your-voter-record (I moved to NC from NY in 2021) and, although I am a registered Independent, the two times that I’ve voted, I voted straight Republican down-the-line, because I don’t want NC to turn into NY.
The mail-in ballots are election theft in action.
I'm registered as Republican but I still get acouple of fliers in the mail each week asking if I've gotten my ballot? What an absolute mess it all is.
I've watched the once beautiful city of Charlotte turn into a Progressive shithole. Serving on their new Small Business Board for certified diverse businesses was a great experience for me, I frequently sparred with a city attorney who made it clear he didn't like me - I asked all the wrong questions (caught City employees lying). I wanted transparency, they wanted to continue lying to their taxpayers. I handed off the baton to a deaf business woman who I thought would continue fighting for the underdogs, but her goals were the opposite of mine🤷♀️
Yes, both North & South Carolina are being invaded by Progressive Parasites - we must show up and vote.
glad you have water,consider a filter for your shower.....mail in ballots is not an accountable process. thanks for the post, we will succeed, blessings.
"Voting" does matter in a weird way:
