Lies, Lies and More Lies - Rehashing the June Debate


While the first thing Jill Biden did after the Presidential debate is to claim “Trump lied”, the truth is Joe’s comments started with lies and continued through out his abysmal debate performance. I actually tried to count the lies and record them, but there were so many, I couldn’t keep up and I was losing the opportunity to hear how Trump responded. We have all lived it the last four years, so we should know them all by heart, anyway.  

I have become so weary of seeing the misinformation, disinformation, spin...whatever one wants to call it - I call it "lies" - that I decided I wanted to share a few of Biden’s most egregious accusations and distortions. I am not sure all of what I have listed here, were mentioned in the debate; but we have been living with them for way too long now; too often in silence.

  • The debate started with lies about the economy, with Joe claiming success and stating he had inherited a mess. This is simply not true. Inflation was 1.4% under President Trump when Biden took office and rose to 9% (a high of four decades!) in 2022 during BIDEN’s term, not Trump’s. 1

  • Biden cannot take credit for creating jobs, when he came into office and everyone was out of work because of the pandemic. One doesn't get to take credit for jobs already there, and to which people simply returned. He unnecessarily inflicted shutdowns and mandates upon us for way too long! Under Trump, unemployment declined from 4.7% to as low as 3.5% in late 2019 and early 2020. This was its lowest level since 1969!2 And further, black unemployment rate was the lowest rate it has ever been. His rating among blacks increased and is growing.

  • Notice the debate hosts didn’t ask about fuel prices. Or did I miss that? Fuel was under $2.00 a gallon with President Trump in office, and up to $5.00 plus, in some places with Biden.3 Biden stupidly used our oil reserves to make it look like he was bringing down oil prices. Through Executive Order, he stopped everything in his first days in office that had helped make us energy independent under Trump. That should tell us everything we need to know. Who's the dictator?

  • Trump’s tax cuts spurred the economy and Biden continually lies about the cuts only helping “the rich”. Obviously he doesn’t understand economics.

  • Trump did not say neo-Nazis are “very fine people” at his Charleston speech.4 This blatant lie has finally been debunked by MSM, (Main Stream Media) but those of us who follow less liberal news networks, knew the truth from the onset; because we saw the video that MSM refused to air. Biden still regurgitated this falsehood in his debate comments! It had been reported that he was advised not to bring up this narrative because so many MSM outlets had finally debunked this dangerous, but effective lie. Obviously, Biden didn’t remember the memo to not mention Charleston and he talked about it anyway. Even Jake Tapper had admitted and reported the fact that the Charleston narrative was simply not true, which is just another reason why Biden should never have regurgitated the lie.5

  • “Trump cages”. Those were OBAMA’s cages. Everyone should know and remember those cages started under Obama.6 Do they think we have forgotten? Further, under Biden, the use of cages has drastically grown among many other terribly dangerous border disasters through Biden's disastrous policies.7

  • Trump NEVER said our military or veterans were “suckers and losers”. This lie stems from an article written in the Atlantic newspaper in 2020. But the article named no sources or even the name of a single witness.8 The lie continued to grow with MSM refusing to mention that this statement has been negated with testimony from 19 trustworthy individuals. The truth is Trump’s actions speak louder than words, in the first place! Because of the way he treats our military and veterans, they know; and they return honor and respect with the same! Trump did tremendous things for our military and veterans while in office. He rebuilt the military Obama had destroyed, and Trump reworked VA with the best and most efficient care that we have seen since my husband (personally) started utilizing VA benefits. Veterans were struggling with getting care under Obama, with long waiting lines, many even dying while they waited. How can we not remember that?

  • Trump did not say “inject yourself with bleach” during the pandemic.9 If anyone believes that lie, they need to have a talk with themselves. Trump’s words were intentionally taken totally out of context and manipulated to make him look like a nut case. He was talking about the use of bleach and UV light on counter-tops and other surfaces. Good grief! How easily are we manipulated to believe what someone wants us to believe!!! The video was once available in full context to disprove this lie. He asked questions as a wise leader will. Please read about the full incident at the link I have provided. (Footnote 9)

  • Trump did not make fun of anyone with a physical or mental disability. The video used to create this lie was totally taken out of context and manipulated...you know “fake news”, “deep fake”, “cheap fake”...which they now accuse the right of doing, but they have done for four long, painful years. Projection! They took a video of Trump using his hand in a gesture he has long been known to use when using his hands to express himself in conversation.10 It was taken and used out of context! This supposedly took place in November of 2015. This goes to show the left was after him since the day he announced his run. Personally, that they even thought this through to create a story like that, says far more about lame-stream medial than it does about DJT. Prager U discusses it here: 

  • Oh! And “Russia Collusion” was also proven false over and over and over.

  • Then there is the favorite accusation that "Trump is a racist." It seems this is the most used slander of all of them. They use it for literally everything - even making his followers guilty by association! No. Anyone that will be truthful to themselves, knows this is not true. Everyone from every race loved him, invited him to weddings, couldn't wait to be photographed with him, and did business with him...that is, until he announced for Presidency. The truth is he has never shown any racism whatsoever to any race appointing a variety of people to cabinet positions and beyond.

  • PM Bibi Netanyahu did NOT endorse Biden’s plan for Gaza, but rather diplomatically (because that’s what good leaders do) stated Israel would handle the war as they deemed necessary to protect their nation!11 Biden's "plan" put horrible, unnecessary pressure on Netanyahu and the nation of Israel; and IMHO, the context of Biden's claim during the debate is diabolically untrue. Instead Netanyahu has maintained that "'The war will be stopped for the purpose of returning hostages and then we will proceed with further discussions,’ Mencer quoted the prime minister as saying. ‘There are other details that the U.S. president did not present to the public.’” 12

  • The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) will continue operations” in Rafah, regardless of the dangerous pressure campaign from Joe Biden! Israel will FINISH this war even though Hamas is the one that started it! And God will be with them. Zechariah 14:11.13 It’s Biblical. Jerusalem is the eternal capitol of Israel. Again, Joe is the one acting like a dictator, when he unconstitutionally withheld arms from Israel, when Congress had passed legislation to send them.

  • The Border Patrol NEVER endorsed Joe Biden as he claimed, even releasing a statement DURING the debate, because the comment that Biden made was that important to refute!!!14 Biden also stated there is 40% fewer illegals coming across our border under him. In whose world??? Tom Homan, former Acting Director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and who has been at the border for decades said the crisis was never better handled than under Trump and never worse than under Joe Biden!15 You can watch that statement here. And here.  It shouldn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out if anyone is paying even the slightest attention to what is taking place in cities across America. “We have all become a border state” is the flat-out truth!

  • I am still shaking my head over the threats that say Trump will become a dictator; that he even admitted that fact himself, saying: "[He] would become a dictator on day 1." Oh good grief! No! What he said, when asked by a reporter, (almost mocking the question) was, "I will be a dictator for one day, on the first day, when I will rescind every. single, one of Joe Biden's Executive Orders." (paraphrase, but close enough!) Those Executive Orders, were in fact, what made Joe Biden the dictator wannabe!

  • Oh my gosh! Biden took credit for lowering the cost of insulin. Everyone should remember when that took place under the Trump administration.16 But aside from that, the bigger issue is Obamacare (or the Affordable Care Act) that has dramatically hurt Americans and the medical industry since day one of its inception.

  • The worst lie of all for me, was when Biden said no troops have died under his leadership! There was absolutely no acknowledgment from him of the 13 troops killed in Afghanistan, not to mention all the people and billions of dollars of equipment left behind there!!17 Say their names!!!18 We are on the verge of WWIII thanks to Joe Biden, with wars across the globe! Specifically Ukraine and Israel, as the most notable. Iran has once again been empowered by the Biden Administration, just as they were under Obama! No wars were started under Trump, and Russia did not even try to take more land as Putin absolutely did under both Obama and Joe...and that’s a fact.

  • MSM, as well as the January 6th Committee, intentionally left out Trump’s statement of “I know you are going to walk peacefully and patriotically over to the Capitol.” Liz Cheney, and the January 6th Committee intentionally did not allow in testimony, the complete video with that statement. And the MSM, though they were well aware of the full comment in his “Front Lawn” speech, totally left that part out with zero coverage of that statement. Here is how it was generally portrayed in MSM.  This is what he really said.  I watched it in real time. I knew the truth from day one, as anyone did who is not locked into MSM. Anyone who watches media from sources other than MSM, knew full well what he said and his intent. I was shocked by the number of my friends who had never heard that part of the speech. And yes, I will criticize “Republicans” when they are wrong - Liz Cheney could not be more wrong!

  • Trump, asked for 10,000 to 20,000 troops before January 6th, simply because he was aware of the crowd that would be there that day.19 No, duh! Heck! Everyone should have known! I certainly did! Muriel Bowser and Nancy Pelosi who were the ones that needed to okay and facilitate the order, turned down the offer Trump made. And again, in order to not show favor on my part, I will note a Republican, Liz Cheney, purposefully left out this fact from the January 6th hearing, as well.20 Nancy Pelosi, finally admitted that she was responsible for the protection of the Capitol...albeit, way too late!!21 And trust me, you will have to really work at getting around the false narrative when using Google to find the info. The left has control of all media and they will add their links first to the narrative they want us to hear. The fact is, she finally admitted it in testimony and you can read about that from a reliable source in the link I have provided. (Footnote 21)

  • Trump had no intentions of “overturning the election”, which was the phrase repeatedly used (even by conservative media) as if he tried in some illegitimate means. Trump only wanted the slates to be contested, which is absolutely Constitutional and which the Democrats have also done in the past, for finalization of election results. It only takes one member from each branch of Congress to start this process. What REALLY resulted from the January 6th fiasco, was this procedure was prevented from taking place. Who benefited from that mess?? Democrats did! Because our concerns did not have a chance to be heard! And yes, Mike Pence messed this up! Because he had a plane to catch. I think in his mind, he was done with his job and couldn’t wait to get outta there! (See, I told you, I know how to blame Republicans too.) It is easily provable that Democrats did in fact use this election process provided for under the 12th Amendment, even as late as 2016. It is standard procedure. Republicans (America really, because look where we have ended up!) were not only robbed of the election by a number of methods that allowed a cheat to take place, (from fake ballots; to closed doors due to plumbing; to more importantly, illegal practices across several states to unconstitutionally changing election law; and then the riots!) we were robbed of our right to contest the slate of electors. If Al Gore, Hillary Clinton and Stacey Abrams can still whine about being cheated, all these years later, than even more can we!! Because there has never been a more thorough and diabolical cheat!

  • As far as Trump saying "our nation is in decline"...what the heck would you call it??? Of course we love and are proud of America; but this is NOT the America we grew up in and it is my view, we will NEVER survive another government controlled by Democrats...at least until the Dems get their party figured out...but that does not seem to be their agenda. We all should understand what MAGA means after living through the last four years!

I know there is so much I have left out of my post. How does one cover it all? Those of us who watch media outside of MSM or in real time, have always known the truth. We were not surprised by Biden's debate performance, because we have been watching the exact same cognitive level for four long years!!  We have been trying to sound the alarm! Not in hate or disdain, but out of concern and yes even fear for our nation!! Because we have been watching the destruction of America, whether we want to admit it or not....and whether we offend someone or not, we must sound the alarm. We are there; there is no backing down from truth at this point in our history.

There. I feel much better now. I simply cannot let lies stand without response. No one should.

Letter of the Law




Now that Christmas is behind us and things have slowed down for me, I decided I wanted to write down my thoughts regarding what I have learned about our November, Presidential election. 

We all know President Trump has refused to concede. For me, being an ardent supporter of Trump, and following as closely as I have, I completely understand why. We have all heard about the court challenges and lawsuits that have been brought. There has been mounds of misinformation and misreporting regarding this. For example, the media loves to report how "50 Trump lawsuits" have been lost, or turned down by the courts. But this is simply not true. One of President Trump's attorneys, Jenna Ellis, reiterated yesterday it is not the Trump team that has brought those suits. Those have all been brought by private individuals and were mostly thrown out by the courts due to "Lack of Standing". The Trump team was not surprised, nor troubled by this fact, as they are concentrating on their own efforts. The team has only brought just a few lawsuits, albeit without much success, thus far.

We of course have all heard about what was probably the biggest and most publicized lawsuit. It was brought by the state of Texas. Now again, this was not orchestrated by President Trump. It was the Attorney General of the State of Texas bringing suit against four states: Pennsylvania, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin. The suit was brought in regard to the illegal changing of election laws in each of these states. The states' actions in effect, disenfranchised the votes of all the other states. Seventeen other individual states joined Texas in an effort of support. Unfortunately, (and it can be argued, unconstitutionally) the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) refused to hear this case. Contrary to what people believe, it was not due to lack of evidence that the Supreme Court refused to hear it. It was due again to what they call "Lack of Standing" under Article III, of the US Constitution. Chief Justice Roberts cited that Texas did not demonstrate clearly how another state affected their state's general election. In reality, Texas wasn't given opportunity. Mark Levin (Constitutional lawyer and scholar) has an excellent commentary as to why this was so negligent on the part of the Supreme Court.  

 
None of the evidence has been seen in ANY court, thus far as they have all refused to let it be presented for various "Trumped" up reasons. Pardon the pun. In this case, it fits. I suspect if it involved any person other than Trump, the case would have been allowed to be presented. The Supreme Court has allowed judicial review before; case in point - Obamacare.

At any rate, the evidence the Trump Team has gathered is astronomical. The team has hundreds of sworn affidavits taken under the penalty of perjury from willing witnesses, testifying as to what they saw on election night, throughout many states. As well, there is no doubt in Pennsylvania and Georgia, election laws were unconstitutionally changed before the election to the benefit of Democrats. Article II, Section 1, Clause 2 of the US Constitution gives state legislators the sole right to make election laws. The Founders of our great nation, did this intentionally because they saw the danger in overreach from the federal government, or from a state judiciary. Pennsylvania, Georgia, Wisconsin  and Michigan all allowed Democratic governors, State Election Committees, and/or state courts to unconstitutionally change election laws in their states to the benefit of Democrats. This alone, is reason enough to bring the lawsuits the Trump team is bringing. In Pennsylvania, the SCOTUS has finally agreed to hear their case. Unfortunately, it is not on the docket until January 22nd, 2021 which is, of course, after Inauguration on January 20th. And yes, I point to these Democrat held states as the problem. In Georgia, there were some members of the Republican Party who betrayed unity and cohesiveness of the election, by contributing to the undermining of long-held election laws. But it has been primarily done by Democratic leadership in states controlled by Democrats.

The Supreme Court had every responsibility to hear these cases. But the court failed. They ducked the responsibility for reasons we can only surmise. I suspect it was out of fear of what might happen if they actually saw the evidence. And that would be that they would have to resolve among themselves to find a solution to the fact that this election was indeed stolen and that there is in fact, mountains of evidence proving it. I also suspect it was out of fear of what may happen because of what we saw this summer in so many cities across America that are ran by Democrats. It's hard to forget the "peaceful protests" and "Summer of Love". ( Please, note sarcasm!)

Now, there are so many suppositions and narratives making the rounds, it is almost impossible to keep up, or monitor. They of course involve a number of attorneys desiring to take a variety of directions. I just want to explain what I have learned. I hope to make it a bit easier to squelch rumors and correct things that are simply not true. I have used sources I trust, to finally bring this all together for me. One is a website I sought early on, that fully explains the election process. I also follow Jay Sekulow and his son, Jordan, with ACLJ whom I have listened to and trusted decades before Jay was ever counsel to this President. I also trust the other two most prominent members of the Trump Team, Rudy Giuliani and Jenna Ellis. I have long followed Rudy, being well-pleased with everything he did as the mayor of New York. And more recently, I have researched Jenna Ellis and could not be more pleased with what I have learned about her. I trust the President's team. I have also used American Thinker as a reliable news source and it is another one that I have followed for years. And of course, Governor Mike Huckabee is a reputable and trustworthy source of information.

So with those sources cited for my facts, let me explain exactly what I believe is happening with this messy, messy election MESS. Yeah, I know that's redundant. I will attempt to give the mini-version of what has been occurring, and attempt to make this as concise as possible.

As I have already stated, the Constitution leaves election laws to the states. Each state may vary to some degree with how they handle their elections within their individual state law. That's okay. That is what the Founders intended, i.e. for our government to be handled at the most local levels and keep the federal government at bay as much as possible. States are obligated, however, to obey anything which is laid out in our US Constitution, as under Article II, for example.

Now with this election getting so messy and with so many calls of fraud, we have necessarily had to look at exactly what the courts' responsibility is in each of the states where questions and problems were presented. Initially a case would be brought to state courts and state Supreme Courts before being brought to the SCOTUS. And even before that, the acting Supreme Court Justice of the district in question would give directive first. There are 12 districts or "circuits". There are four that are especially in play at this time. For example, in Pennsylvania which is the Third Circuit, the Justice overseeing is Justice Alito. In Georgia, which is Eleventh Circuit, the Supreme Court Justice who has jurisdiction is Justice Clarence Thomas. Wisconsin is the Seventh Circuit, with Justice Amy Coney Barrett having oversight. And Michigan, is the Sixth Circuit, under Justice Brett Kavanaugh. I mention this, because in the final outcome this is important. It is going to be indicative as to why and if a case might be heard by the Supreme Court. Thanks to directive from Justice Alito, Pennsylvania has had votes that were to be left uncounted, as they were questionable in authenticity and therefore their legitimacy. PA disobeyed this order. This case will eventually be heard at the Supreme Court on January 22nd, 2021. Likewise in Georgia, if and when things go awry, it will be Justice Clarence Thomas who has authority; and who has proven time and again that he cares more about the Constitution, than he does politics.

On another note, there has been a lot made of the fact that the President has removed Sidney Powell and Lin Wood from his team. It seems the President has distanced himself from both of them. Jordan Sekulow explained this well in a recent interview with David Brody (from CBN) on his podcast, the Water Cooler. (That link was not available, but Just News has an article regarding that conversation.) It isn't necessarily that the President doesn't respect these two attorneys. And it certainly isn't that they are doing anything that is not according to the Constitution. Rather, it is simply a difference in the choice of direction the President wants to go. Jordan admitted he was even uncertain at times what that would be. This is why it has been so confusing and what appeared as if they were all going different directions and working against each other. They are simply working with in Constitutional law on separate issues. It has been reported on some news outlets that Sidney Powell and Lin Wood were encouraging the President to enact Martial Law. No one was certain as to which direction the President would take until he recently made clear he was not going to impose the Insurrection Act or Martial Law, even though he is Constitutionally allowed to do so should he decide. I like how Jordan explains so kindly in this interview that it was not out of any disrespect for Powell, simply different desires to the outcome. There have been groups advocating for Martial Law. But the Trump Team has made it clear they are not a part of this and that they do not support this effort. Jenna Ellis has been especially diligent the last few days in getting this word to citizens.

Now unfortunately, none of this has been reported accurately in mainstream media. With this being the case, it is in fact extremely dangerous because it leads people to believe the election is a done deal. Ask your friends. Most people believe this election is over. But it isn't. Yes, the electors have all certified their votes by December 14th, leading people to believe that means it is over. But in reality, those certifications are merely fluff - all for appearance. In truth, the actual election is not completed until January 6th, when both the US House of Representatives and the US Senate are required by the Constitution to gather in session to finalize these votes. If any representative has doubts or questions, they can contest the results. It merely takes one person from each chamber of Congress - one Representative and one Senator to do so. Once contested, then a debate will begin as to the reasoning and legitimacy. This could go on for several hours and can occur with each slate presented. Further, in some states there have been two slates of electors submitted. It is up to this body to decide which one will be accepted. Finally, it is the Vice President of the United States that has the final authority regarding the outcome. In fact, according to the Constitution the VP does not even have to accept either slate presented if there are two, but simply explain there is not ample reason to accept either slate.

There is the possibility Vice President Pence will choose not to contest the votes. There is also precedent of that. Richard Nixon did exactly that in 1960, saying it would make governance too difficult. There is also precedent of a Vice President, contesting to his own benefit of winning the election - President Thomas Jefferson. Clearly there is precedent for both scenarios.

It is my belief, with the Supreme Court date of January 22nd in Pennsylvania and the contest being held up in Georgia, that is reason enough for the VP to not accept either slate of electors in those states. There are also pending efforts in Wisconsin and Michigan that could give the Vice President pause. If the VP does not accept the slates, it would remove the votes from Biden, but they would NOT be handed over to President Trump. They simply would not be counted. If this happens in each of these contested States, it will put the electoral votes back to where they were before all this chaos began on the night of the November 3rd election - with seven states in question. If all are not accepted, it leaves Biden with 222 electoral votes and President Trump with 232. If this is the scenario that plays out, according to the 12th Amendment, the election will be given to President Trump.

It will appear to half of our society, that it is Trump who stole the election, when in fact he has done everything to the letter of the law. There is tons of proof that there was fraud in this election; and in fact, that the election was stolen from President Trump. Yes, there will be rioting in the streets when this is Constitutionally resolved. And yes, we can thank mainstream media for that for failing to report any of this even though it is all within the confines of the Constitution. Media have instead been acting as if it is all a done deal. That is going to come back to bite all of us. We can also point a finger at the Supreme Court of the United States for not having guts enough to hear the Texas case. I'm sure there is enough blame to go around. Including silent citizens who have not risen up to help right this obvious injustice. The last I checked, 83% of Republicans30% of independents, and 17% of Democrats believe the election was stolen. We cannot let concerns like that left unresolved. In truth, a stolen election is something we should ALL care about, regardless of party.* We are no longer America, if this continues and we can no longer trust our election process. May God have mercy. May truth be revealed.

*Edited December 28, 2020

** Updated January 4, 2021. Updated with new, recently released articles and information.
            The Texas court rejected Louie Gohmert's appeal the next day.

    And this:
           
I had the hardest time finding any comment from Jay Sekulow during this time. He and his son Jordan were remaining silent on behalf of ACLJ. Sometime later, I found this clip from Jay saying that it is not Constitutional for the Vice President to nullify an election. I am sure that is accurate in that context. And I fully trust Jay Sekulow and ACLJ. This clip is referring to that discussion. However, I do not believe that is what Trump was asking of the Vice President. 

Trump was only asking that when they were to meet in session on January 6th to certify the votes, that he stop to hear the contests from the Senators and Representatives that were bringing questions. That is perfectly fine to do that and it is Constitutional. The Democrats did it in 2016 when Hillary ran against Trump. They did it during the Bush/Gore election. It is standard practice. This time, however, it did not take place because of the Capitol riots of January 6th. Those riots most certainly did not help Republicans. They didn't get to bring their questions regarding the slates on that day, as they were planning on doing and had every right to do. I believe that is the only thing that President Trump was asking of Vice President Pence. Should fraud or problems be exposed during those discussions, then the VP would have a right to send those slates back to the states, as I explained in this article. But instead, the riots took place, and then Pence had a plane to catch...obviously that plane was more important...in my view.

Please see this link (or below) for Sekulow's view on Pence nullifying the election. Keep in mind, that wasn't what Pence was asked to do.
