Sneaky Joe's new plan to steal the midterms

He stole it once, and got away with it...Why wouldn't he do it again? Which is the unfortunate conclusion from Mollie Hemingway in a new report in The Federalist.

Joe Biden has a new plan to rig and steal the midterms. He's not only doing it now, he's been working on it for a while. Hemingway notes that it probably isn't legal, given that the executive branch has no right to get involved with elections. As a result, Biden and his Democrats are really determined to keep news of its basic details from the public:

President Biden really does not want the public to know about his federal takeover of election administration. Dozens of members of Congress have repeatedly asked for details, to no avail. Good government groups, members of the media, and private citizens have filed requests under the Freedom of Information Act. Not a single one has been responded to. All signs indicate a concerted effort to keep the public in the dark until at least after the November midterm elections. The lack of transparency and responsiveness is so bad that the Department of Justice and some of its agencies have been repeatedly sued for the information.

When President Biden ordered all 600 federal agencies to “expand citizens’ opportunities to register to vote and to obtain information about, and participate in, the electoral process” on March 7, 2021, Republican politicians, Constitutional scholars, and election integrity specialists began to worry exactly what was up his sleeve.

The short way of describing the plot is that Biden has asked any federal agency that delivers government services of any kind to voters to be converted into a voting operation.

Any government jobs center is now converted to a voting registration or voter "outreach" center. Ditto for any health care agency, any college, any housing agency.

Worse still, the Biden plan involves "partnering" with NGOs, which are partisan in the extreme and not subject to government rules against partisanship or political campaigning to get the dirty work done:

Conservatives may be in the dark, but left-wing activist groups are fully involved in the plot. The left-wing dark money group Demos put out press releases immediately after the executive order was issued, saying it would be happy to work with federal agencies on the project.

And then the group admitted publicly that it “organized agency-based working groups and met with the staff in these agencies to provide technical expertise as they developed their initial voter registration plans, to ensure those plans reflect the knowledge and priorities of various agency stakeholders.” It also admits it “developed research and resources to assist and advance agency efforts to implement robust voter registration opportunities, including a slide deck explainer of the agencies’ potential for impact, best practices for conducting voter registration at federal agencies, and recommendations for modernizing and improving the accessibility of Vote.gov.”

All of that information should be available to oversight authorities in Congress and the American taxpayers paying for its implementation, not just the left-wing groups that produced it. Yet as of this publication date, none of it has been shared.

Bitter, hateful, ultra-partisan Obama-era leftist Susan Rice, who is now Biden's "chief domestic advisor" is reportedly running this scam and keeping news of it from the public, with presumably Sorosian NGOs serving as her handmaids. Anyone who thinks a federal agency that doles out benefits can't pressure recipients into voting the way they want them to vote is naive in the extreme.

No wonder Joe doesn't want anyone to know. Hemingway points out that NGOs played a pivotal role in swinging the 2020 election far enough into Joe's column for all the cheating efforts to make it come out a victory for him.

Now the Democrats have got a "playbook" and instead of retreating for a while now that word is out, they have stepped up their activity, yet shut down any inquiries about the legality or propriety of these projects. In short, that is rigging an election, which may well explain why Joe is so confident that Democrats in this swing year, where all polls show the public against them, will somehow come out on top, keeping the Senate and House.

Hemingway reports that among problems with this still-unresolved secret plan, which is being challenged by electoral integrity groups, thus far to little avail, are the implication of keeping the public in the dark:

Whatever the case, Americans have a right to know whether these bureaucracies that are meddling in elections have experts in for each state’s election laws, what type of training is going on to ensure that state laws are being followed, whether they are allowing inspections and oversight to ensure no illegal activity, how they are determining whether a third-party group is genuinely non-partisan, whether they are allowing state investigators to approve money, and how much is being spent on this federal takeover of elections.

It's outrageous. It's little more than Hugo Chavez-style rigging, a sure sign of a deteriorating democracy. Beneath the dotardly grandfather image is a completely unethical and evil old man, surrounded by corrupt minions.

If the courts can't bust open this sleazy conspiracy with Joe's busy little minions at work, what chance do we as voters have? Perhaps only that if the midterms are not close, they can't cheat. Pray it is not close.

The Democrats’ Latest Religious Test

Editorial of The New York Sun | August 26, 2020

No sooner did President Trump air at the Republican convention Secretary of State Pompeo’s endorsement video recorded in Jerusalem than the Biden camp is unleashing a new objection — that the secretary is too religious to represent all of the American people. We kid you not. This has got to be the most desperate, offensive, and unconstitutional claim against a state secretary that the Democrats have ever aired.

It comes from one of Mr. Biden’s closest consiglieres, Susan Rice. She was President Obama’s National Security Adviser and, before that, envoy at the United Nations. Vice President Biden had her on his short list for his running mate. She just gave an interview to MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow in which she asserted that “Mike Pompeo has been an overtly religious secretary or state, which in and of itself is problematic.”.......To Read More....

My Take - Does anyone really care what either of these blithering idiots have to say?As for Susan Rice, perhaps if she had been religious she wouldn't have been such a liar.

What Did Obama Know — and When Did He Know It?

Editorial of The New York Sun | May 11, 2020
   
What did President Obama know and when did he know it? That famous formulation is emerging as the question in the wake of new disclosures in respect of a meeting that took place inside the Oval Office in the closing days of Mr. Obama’s presidency. The meeting included not only his national security adviser, Susan Rice, and the head of the FBI, James Comey, but also Vice President Biden, now the prospective Democratic nominee.

This is laid out in, among other places, a dispatch by Mollie Hemingway in the Federalist. Ms. Hemingway reckons the meeting is turning out to be, as her headline puts it, “key” to the “entire anti-Trump operation” launched two weeks before the end of the Obama administration. She’s not the only one laying this out; a veteran of the Sun, Eli Lake, now of Bloomberg, has been all over the story; the Wall Street Journal, as well.

Ms. Hemingway presents a terrific timeline. It starts on January 4, 2017, at a time when the FBI was scrambling, as the Federalist’s scribe puts it, to reopen a case against General Flynn. The January 5 meeting started as a briefing for the President and also included Deputy Attorney General Sally Yates, the CIA director, John Brennan, and the Director of National Intelligence, James Clapper..............

“What did the president know and when did he know it?” is the phrase that history offers up. It was first uttered during Senator Sam Ervin’s Watergate hearings by Senator Howard Baker, Republican of Tennessee. It starts to look ever more apt as investigators, put on the case by Attorney General Barr, finally start to focus on who it was who laid the long train of powder against the incoming Trump administration............

Susan Rice Lies Again -- Obama and Soleimani

January 10, 2020By Daniel John Sobieski

Susan Rice was a little less ubiquitous this time around than during her infamous five-talk-show world tour repeating the lie that the Benghazi terrorist attack was the fault of an inflammatory video and not due to the criminal negligence of President Barack Hussein Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. But there she was again on MSNBC’s “Rachel Maddow Comedy Hour” defending her former boss, this time against charges that President Trump cleaned up more of Obama’s Iran mess by terminating the life and reign of terror of Iranian Gen. and Quds Force Commander Qassem Soleimani:........
“Had we been presented such an opportunity, what we would have done is weigh very carefully and very deliberately the risks versus the potential rewards,” Rice told MSNBC's Rachel Maddow.........
And Obama didn’t care and neither did a Susan Rice fresh from covering up the administration’s criminal negligence at Benghazi. Sometimes it pays to read the fine print. They wanted Soleimani to live long and prosper for that was a price that had to be paid to get the Iran nuclear deal:
According to a January 2018 report from the Israel newspaper Haaretz, leaders in Israel were prepared to kill Soleimani back in 2015 but the Obama administration put an end to the plan. Just as Israel was "on the verge" of killing Soleimani, the Obama administration alerted Iranian officials about Israel's plans and their close tracking of the military leader…. .To Read More...

Obama's Iran deal has just granted an amnesty to the world's leading terrorist mastermind

As head of the Quds Force in Iran's Revolutionary Guards, Qassem Suleimani is widely regarded as one of the world's leading terrorists. Now Barack Obama has effectively granted him an amnesty.

By , Defence Editor 15 Jul 2015

Qassem Suleimani, the head of the elite Quds Force in Iran’s Revolutionary Guards, fully deserves his reputation as one of the world’s leading terrorist masterminds. For a decade a more he has been the driving force behind an array of Iranian-sponsored terrorist groups, from Hizbollah to Hamas, which have orchestrated a reign of terror throughout the Middle East.........So you can imagine my amazement when, leafing through the more obscure annexes of President Barack Obama’s “historic” deal with Iran (page 86 of the annex, to be precise), I found that Mr Suliemani – as the White House no doubt now refers to him – has been granted an amnesty and taken off the list of proscribed Iranians – together with a number of senior members of the Revolutionary Guards. ........

Obama Appointees in the Communist Orbit

May 24, 2019 By Karin McQuillan

This week Rush Limbaugh repeated a quote from James Comey in a New York Magazine interview:
“I’d moved from Communist to whatever I am now. I’m not even sure how to characterize myself politically. Maybe at some point, I’ll have to figure it out.”
It’s hard to pin too much on that quote. Perhaps Comey was joking by calling his vote for Jimmy Carter a vote for a Communist, in mockery of his supposedly fellow Republicans.

Joking about support for Communism is not all that funny in the Obama administration. Obama’s CIA Director John Brennan actually did vote for a Communist presidential candidate. Brennan and Comey are two of the central players in the Russia Collusion Hoax.

Obama choose Communists and Marxists for the highest, most powerful positions in our land, including his closest political advisors, and his head of the CIA. These facts are not in dispute. Most are openly admitted by the people in question, as necessary damage control. Our press chooses not to report them...........Is it any surprise that collusion with Russia, according to Victor David Hanson, was a feature of the Obama presidency? ....... Read more

Unmasking Scandal Gets House Subpoena; Susan Rice Included

By Andrew West May 31, 2017

While the democrats continue to bludgeon us with their bizarre Russian conspiracy theories, they find themselves on the receiving end of some upcoming governmental justice.  During the often contentious, sometimes bizarre election of 2016, Donald Trump was beginning to secretly gather his transition team and cabinet picks so that he could get to work on minute one of day one.  

Of course, this information had to be kept hush-hush, due to the democrats’ love of playing dirty during elections.  Should a name slip here or there, that future Trump advisor would soon be the victim of endless character assassination attempts and history-drudging inquiries in order to give the corrupt Hillary Clinton a better shot at somehow stopping the conservative uprising in America........

Of course, this news has been buried by the mainstream media due to their overwhelming, and frankly pathetic, liberal bias.  The vilification of Obama-era players in the halls of Washington has been a no-no for cable news networks long before Donald Trump sauntered into the Oval Office, and with the Commander in Chief being such an evil figure in liberal lore, those 24 hour “news” networks have barely had any time to report on anyone else........To Read More.......

Is Susan Rice Hunting for an Immunity Deal?

By Tim Brown May 18, 2017

Trump said that he would drain the swamp and much to the surprise of his detractors, he appears committed to his campaign pledges. Comey’s unceremonious but well-deserved firing was a warning shot across the bow, and it appears that former National Security Advisor to Obama, Susan Rice, has heard the shot loud and clear.

For the record, let’s be very clear here. Regardless what nonsense the Democrats or the mainstream media will be spouting in the coming days ahead (and there will be plenty of it), make no mistake, it will all be pure B.S., and it will all be in an attempt to distract Americans from what is easily going to be the largest scandal in our nation’s history….......Ever since the scandal has come to light, Rice has tried to avoid the glare of the interrogator’s light.   For instance, she refused to testify before the Senate during their investigation into the Russian hacking conspiracy, via CNN.   On other counts, Rice has attempted to clear her own name by giving supposedly candid interviews to “serious” journalists.

In each interview, the fact that Rice is a compulsive liar ....Now, with Comey gone, the investigation into Rice and her cronies looks likely to continue. One of the major reasons why Rice is seeking immunity now is because, without Comey, the FBI no longer serves the interests of the Democratic Party.....To Read More....

Michele Bachmann says Susan Rice’s Crimes are “Worse than Watergate”

By Onan Coca April 3, 2017
Former Congresswoman Michele Bachmann is still the darling of the Tea Party movement and when she speaks she commands attention, so her most recent public comments should probably be taken quite seriously. In an interview with USA Radio’s Rusty Humphries on Monday Bachmann said what was on many minds after hearing the news that Obama’s right-hand aide, Susan Rice, had been the official who unmasked the Trump team’s private communications......To Read More...

Shock Report: Susan Rice Behind the Illegal Unmasking of Trump Team Members
By Onan Coca April 3, 2017
Could it be true? Controversial conservative Mike Cernovich is known for being… strident. However, he’s also known for having a nose for the truth and he just dropped a bomb on everyone. Cernovich is reporting that his sources in the administration tell him that it was one of President Obama’s closest advisors, Susan Rice, who illegally unmasked the names of members of the Trump team. Cernovich also expresses dismay at the fact that the national media focused their reporting on “who” House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA) was getting his information from, when they should have been focusing on the information that had been exposed........

Benghazi Liar Susan Rice's Treachery Continues
Daniel John Sobieski
Susan Rice was a key cog in both the Clinton and Obama administrations’ disinformation machines designed to keep the truth from the American people........Call it the tale of two National Security Advisers, Michael Flynn and Susan Rice. As much as Flynn has taken fire as being an architect of unspecified "collusion" with the Russians, Susan Rice has been like the iceberg that sank the Titanic -- barely visible above water but dangerous enough to threaten the Trump administration’s ship of state............

Unmasking Susan Rice and her NSC dead-enders
By Monica Showalter
So now it comes to light that Susan Rice was poking around and asking for unmasked intelligence reports.  It's time for some consequences.  Journalist and activist Mike Cernovich reports that former White House national security adviser Susan Rice obtained intelligence reports showing the identities of innocent Americans who incidentally spoke to foreign officials under security sweeps for spying or intelligence activities. Under U.S. law, U.S. persons are protected from such disclosure, which could be dry cleaners asking envoys to pick up their laundry or wrong number phone messages spilling their guts about their mothers-in-law. If such U.S. persons get swept up in surveillance, they are protected. But only if they remain "masked," which is the law of the land. Cernovich says the White House counsel's office has confirmed that Rice was one of the few officials with the authority to make the requests to unmask the innocent Americans caught up in surveillance dragnets.........More

Susan Rice vs. GOP as Benghazi fight escalates

By SCOTT WONG  11/27/12

The running fight between U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice and congressional Republicans escalated Tuesday, with key senators vowing to block Rice’s nomination if President Barack Obama ever decides to pick her as his next secretary of state. Rice headed to the Capitol on Tuesday morning to meet with three key GOP voices on foreign policy and discuss the deadly Sept. 11 attacks in Benghazi, Libya. But despite some softer rhetoric from Republicans over the weekend, the meeting ended badly, with Sen. John McCain and two other GOP senators saying they were “significantly troubled” by Rice’s explanation of the attacks.  Acting CIA Director Michael Morell also joined Rice at the meeting, but the senators focused their fire on Rice, who has faced constant criticism from Republicans over the Benghazi fallout.  To Read More…..
