A researcher at the Department of Justice on Tuesday released a 25-page report indicating a high probability of voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election. World-renown economist John Lott Ph.D., examined election results from Pennsylvania and Georgia, as well as potential election fraud in Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, and Wisconsin.
“This paper’s approach allows us to quantify how large a potential problem vote fraud and other abnormalities might be in the 2020 election,” Dr. Lott wrote.
White House advisor Peter Navarro heralded Lott’s study results on Twitter:
Hot off press, new Lott study estimates 11,350 absentee votes lost to @potus Trump in Georgia. Another 289,000 "excess (fraudulent) votes" across GA, AZ, MI, NV, PA, WI. As promised this a.m. on Bannon's War Room. Postpone GA Cesspool election!! https://t.co/geqEhnKqCR
— Peter Navarro (@RealPNavarro) December 29, 2020
Navarro released his own study of six contested states earlier this month, alleging “a coordinated strategy” to steal the election, “or unfairly tilt the playing field in favor of the Biden-Harris ticket.”
Lott’s study compared Fulton County Georgia’s precincts to similar precincts in neighboring counties that had no allegations of fraud. The purpose of the exercise, Lott wrote, was “to isolate the impact of Fulton county’s vote-counting process (including potential fraud).”
In 2016, there was little difference between Fulton County and its surrounding counties, according to Lott. But in 2020, with controls for demographic and in-person voting variables, he found that President Trump’s percentage of absentee votes was 7.81 percent lower in Fulton county than precincts in neighboring counties.
In measuring the difference in President Trump’s vote share of the absentee ballots for these adjacent precincts, we account for the difference in his vote share of the in-person voting and the difference in registered voters’ demographics. The best estimate shows an unusual 7.81% drop in Trump’s percentage of the absentee ballots for Fulton County alone of 11,350 votes, or over 80% of Biden’s vote lead in Georgia.
“In layman’s terms, in precincts with alleged fraud, Trump’s proportion of absentee votes was depressed – even when such precincts had similar in-person Trump vote shares to their surrounding countries. The fact that the shift happens only in absentee ballots, and when a country line is crossed, is suspicious,” Lott said.
Lott applied the same approach to Allegheny County in Pennsylvania for both absentee and provisional ballots and estimated that “the number of fraudulent votes from those two sources” was about 55,270 votes.
“The precinct level estimates for Georgia and Pennsylvania indicate that vote fraud may account for Biden’s win in both states,” said Lott.
He also examined the suspiciously high turnout rates in the two states.
“Increased fraud can take many forms: higher rates of filling out absentee ballots for people who hadn’t voted, dead people voting, ineligible people voting, or even payments to legally registered people for their votes,” Lott wrote.
The GA senate Judiciary committee was shown there were different ballots for the same county, in republican stongholds the ballots had barcodes and were off register meaning they wouldnt properly align the ovals for the scanners. In democrat stongholds there were no barcodes and were in perfect alignment for the optical scanners in the vote tabulators. Over 90 % of the votes were kicked out for adjudication so failure rate was over 90 % for the machine and went to someone to decide who was voted for.
The SoS does not address these issues refuses to hand over electronic and paper voting information. Then there is the video evidence.
The fact of the matter is that Biden is such an imbecile, moron and criminal that without fraud, he would have suffered a massive defeat. It took SO MUCH fraud to reverse his negatives that there was no way it could go undetected. The only possibility of success is to ignore it and let the media try to bury it.
It’s not working.

@kitt, #3:
At the 1:20 mark:
You detected WiFi signals from devices? Amazing. Any time I check I can detect 8 to 10 WiFi signals from other homes around my neighborhood. I can identity one as somebody’s thermostat; another is somebody’s wireless printer. A couple are Comcast modems, and the rest are user-owned devices. If I take my laptop into town, the list of signals becomes very long. The thing is, they’re all properly encrypted, as are my own router and wireless devices. So, this guy—who is oddly unidentified in the video clip—needs to explain what he meant when he said “We’re in”, because detection of signals and breaking in through the layers of encryption are two very different things. Get through the WiFi encryption, and then you’ll likely find the device itself has a firewall; the files may themselves also be encrypted.
I’ve seen so much deliberately misleading clips like this that it’s become hardly worth the time it takes to watch them. There’s always some critical point that they gloss over or don’t bother to mention. There’s always the significant question that somehow doesn’t get asked or answered.
The link to the “25-page report” from a Treasury researcher in the article at the top of the page goes nowhere. Click on it and you’ll get a 404 return. What a surprise.
@Greg: But the voting and polling machines aren’t supposed to have a signal. They aren’t supposed to be internet accessible.
Massive fraud to elect a massive fraud.
@Greg: Only they did not hack in from across the street but where the hearing was being held. yes I can see the wifi of my neighbors too, if I had the password I could use it for free, but they are lawfully on the internet, your government said these machines were not not not on the internet. Obama lied, nothing new there. Not the only issues in GA why are there different ballots for the same county? Some with barcodes others do not, why did 93% go to adjudication? Would you want me to decide who I thought you really wanted to vote for on your ballot?
Why is the SoS not being 100 % transparent not releasing data gathered on election night, why were they destroying election materials at the fair grounds on the day of certification?
You are a wanker not a hacker stick to what you know.
Try the link in the tweet above wanker.
I know misleading content when I see it. The GOP has become the party of deception.
@Greg: BS or you wouldnt still believe the Russian Hoax crap. The Head of Dominion perjured himself before congress lets see him treated like Rodger Stone!
@Greg: Welllllllll….. no, based on past history, I don’t think you do.
I think I’ll trust my own observations, based on both recent history and current events.
It has been repeatedly asserted that the Trump administration is on top of the COVID-19 problem. There’s no more truth to that than there is to the claims of massive election fraud. I wouldn’t care what they’ve said about either, if the lies they’ve told weren’t so dangerous. The COVID lies have cost people their lives. Undermining confidence in our nation’s election process could destroy the rule of law and democracy itself.
They’ve damaged the distinction between truth and lies. Truth is not whatever you can manage to convince people of.
@Greg:
What observations? The observations of the perpetrators saying “nothing happened, so don’t look into it.”?
Wrong article, scooter. Address the OBVIOUS and PROVEN voter fraud.
@Greg:
Soviet-style rhetoric. Easily dismissed.
Biden won nothing, and is not the legal President (or President-elect) of the United States of America.
@Greg: Why do you have a double-standard for facts and evidence?
@kitt:
Comrade Greggie cannot answer any of those questions because he has never been responsible for running an election, not even the election of the president of an HOA.
I watched the entire Georgia hearing today and I can say one thing for Georgia; they damn sure need to clean up their election laws.
Here are some more questions for you:
who is responsible for certifying the ballot is correct prior to printing?
who prints Georgia ballots?
why were ballots being destroyed during an election?
if those ballots had reached the legal 22 month retention period, why were they being destroyed somewhere other than the county court house where they are supposed to be stored?
why was there no law enforcement presence during the destruction (shredding) of those ballots?
Comrade Greggie only knows what he’s told to know.
@retire05:
greg is a few different people, you know. He’s out of a Chinese bot farm.
21 days and counting…
@retire05: Hell, how about this one: if the election was so honest, fraud free and secure, why do Democrats block every attempt to prove that to the American people?
@Greg: Really? there are interesting things coming out of the Ukraine. Perhaps if he quietly cedes we wont extradite him and his drug addled spawn. Ever wonder if someone were dumb enough to drop off a laptop full of nekid drug fueled sex, might have saved the numbers for Pops foreign accounts in it too. Maybe one of his partners in prison had them.
GA ordering a forensic audit on the absentee ballots of Fulton county, I guess we will see if they were legitimate or funky.
With PA having more ballots than voters I bet they might just want to examine those too.
@kitt: And that’s the smartest guy Joe knows. Probably one of his few accurate statements.
@Nathan Blue: Because if it weren’t for double standards, the left wouldn’t have any standards at all.
@Greg:
Until we have no legal President.
Good job, communist scum.
Only 19 days, bucko, and we’ll finally have a real president in the White House again—not just some thinly gold-plated New York real estate hustler who plays one on television.
This just in, retweeted by Trump from OAN (One America Nutworks): President Trump’s Road to Victory.
Alternately, it might be possible to declare the recently completed year of 2020 invalid, null, and void, and decree that the entire year be stricken from official records and done over.
@Greg: Bucko? bucko? Well thats no malarkey you one pony hose soldier! Real President, he can barely read his teleprompter. In nearly 50 years he has only proven himself a racist and opportunist. His entire family is a criminal enterprise using the now retarded member as front man.
You really need to pull your head out of your ass someday.
Joe Biden bragged that Democrats have created the “most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.”
He really needs to stop confessing to treason while cameras roll.
We have the evidence machines that connect to the internet, more votes than voters.
213,799,467total registered voters, 66.2% of registered voters voted or 141,535247 minus 75,000000 trump votes leaves 66,535247 million where are Bidens 80 million?
They are finding many ghost voters in AZ, just regular people finding empty lots, government buildings, Churches chicken, and just bare land owned by the state all as “physical addresses” of these ghost voters. 1 cell phone number has 19 voters using it. Not counting those that moved and are dead.
Finding the same patterns in PA and GA.
Oh yes there was massive systemic election fraud targeting swing states.
Happy New Year brother.
might have to meet the new boss same as the old boss.
@Greg:
Haha. You mean Senator Biden, Groper of Children, slave of lobbyists, failed VP, and installed by a complicit media and a fraudulent election that most Americans don’t even acknowledge?
In 19 days, the Civil War commissioned by desperate and failed Democrats begins.
Enjoy that “victory” of yours that didn’t happen. You’re going to need some strength in the coming years.
Trump delivered on everything he promised, and made the Democrats look like the inept con-artists they truly are. I can see why they needed to cheat.
Trump won, in pretty much everything. Biden will be replaced or dead in a year, with one of the first Democrat Primary losers to be ejected from the race installed.
That’s call authoritarianism, bub.
@Nathan Blue: I wonder how many times this genius voted
@Greg:
You mean THIS guy?
https://www.facebook.com/JohnMFromNY/videos/3120836704688978
How many lies do you count in THIS compendium? Yes, this is the IDIOT you think is a “real President”. Of course, this does not cover his 47 years of doing NOTHING.
It’s not just that he is a totally illegitimate President; it’s the REASON he is illegitimate. So much fraud was required to make it appear he won because he is such a corrupt, bumbling idiot. Very few people actually want him as President, so Democrat fraud had to fill in the gaps.
@Nathan Blue:
We all get your festering outrage of the loss of the man you wanted to win as well as the abject fear you have of the winner replacing him as you communicate this regularly.
Among the conspiracy theories and misinformation of right wing propaganda QAnon was that Democrats were Satan-worshipping elites who run child sex rings. Of course, there never were any actual incidents or accusations of substance but QAnon was able to promote this through Facebook memes and far right wing networks where those searching for a glimmer of hope (such as you) would pick up on it and abet their endeavors. And you have obediently done so as you’ve avidly accused Biden of molesting puppy dogs and of being a “Groper of Children”.
Puppy molesting and children groping were ingredients needed by QAnon to create the potion and funnel it through social networking and such for Trump cultist and/or Dem haters to happily swig hourly in an effort to allow Trump to overturn the election in the event he lost. You guys were already in full blown denial (needing an example before considering Trump ever telling a lie and such) so you buying into it was an easy sell.
You kind of remind me of Mike Savage when every rant against Obama included a voice inflection of “Barack Hussein!!!! Obama. The inflection was meant to sell fear or to suggest danger of someone not like us or not suited to lead people like us. Had Savage’s arguments had merit and was built on facts I wondered, why would he need this fearmongering when he had an argument that stood to scrutiny. It was because he didn’t.
Come to think of it, I remember you making some claim of Obama being planted by foreigners of of similar stupidity. The point is, facts and reality aren’t on your side so you grasp for glitter to support your case. It’s really quite ridiculous on every front. It might give you a feel good feeling in Trumpland but in the real world, you’re making a fool of yourself’
This is where the QAnon kool-aid drinkers get dangerous. You’ve been instructed by Trump and his propaganda machine for 4 years to “stand down but stand by” in the event he lost. He and his machine have said for 4 years that the only way he could lose was by fraud. And you must obey this command. If for nothing else, for the children sold as slaves and to free the molested puppy dogs.
This again exposes your indoctrination. You had to insist without evidence or a credible argument that Trump would win by a landslide because in your mind, Trump was great and awesome and delivering everything he promised. There was no way how a person so close to God would be beaten by someone so close to Satin. To you, it just couldn’t happen. And now that it has happened, you must continue, as instructed, to deny this reality.
Again, more insistence on something to be true without clarity or the likeliness of happening.
You seem to have come to terms that Trump will not serve another 4 years (at least, I think, in the sense of not being inaugurated by a Supreme Court Justice and not residing in the White House). It appears that Trump knows this as well yet he continues making a fortune of this latest scam. You are being had in the most profound way.
@Deplorable Me: True the Vote announced this week that they are challenging 364,541 voters who appear to be ineligible to vote in the upcoming Georgia run-off election.9
Fat ass gap tooth is sueing them in federal court to keep the fraud in place.
@kitt: Big, fat, gravy-sweating Alfred E. Newman pigs are working hoof in hoof to make sure they can use fraud to win… again. Ignorant fools who are happy to see our nation overtaken by fraud and corruption (like AJ above, that claims the massive VIDEO evidence of Gropin’ Joe is a “conspiracy”) simply want liberal power, no matter how that power has failed to benefit the American people in the past. No matter how clear the evidence, these indoctrinated idiots will deny it and believe fantasies like Russian colluion.
@Deplorable Me: Ward has a thing for Q, guess he doesnt like the numbers of pedos and pedo rings that were arrested during this admin.
Human trafficking comes in many forms we are against all of them.
https://www.state.gov/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/282798.pdf
1543 of the 1588 arrests HSI made in FY 2018 for human trafficking were for sex trafficking violations.”
Where are all the children that rushed the border to find themselves in cages during the Obama admin?
Weissman used a pedo as a witness against Manafort. George Nader, a key witness in the special counsel’s investigation, to 10 years in prison on Friday on child sex crime charges.
Nader, 61, pleaded guilty on Jan. 13 to trafficking a 14-year-old boy from the Czech Republic for sex in 2000.
Ward is one sick puppy, or a really really sick puppy.
@kitt: The left is trying to legitimize pedophilia. More and more of them try to make it mainstream. This makes it easier to accept one for their President. It’s how they can ignore their pedophile President’s pedophile son and the clear demonstration of how the Biden’s accept and practice it.
Democrats have to accept this sickness to accept their party. AJ certainly has no problem with it, especially since there are no Republicans to accuse and beat over the head with it. It’s all part of the slimy liberal culture.
@Deplorable Me:
So, um, promoting pedophilia makes for good politics?
And to think, Curt got all butthurt because I called Trump’s rallies that endorse white supremacy and energizes groups such as Proud Boys and the KKK a Klan rally?
@Deplorable Me: They make baby steps like CA decriminalizing underage prostitution, releasing offenders to save them from the covid on both coasts. I dont think the LGBQ has accepted them, that would be he marxists. Ward doesnt realize its very good for some politicians to have blackmail materials.
Congress has its tax payer funded hush money stash for bad boyz and maybe girlz.
Look to social media for the campaign I think Antifa is ok with them.
https://videos.whatfinger.com/2020/07/12/antifa-crashes-anti-pedophilia-event-attacks-and-calls-those-against-pedos-fascists-shows-you-where-the-left-is/
Ward has never watched a single hearing on voter fraud, came to crash the thread with his mindless drivel, as more and more evidence pours in on widespread systemic voter fraud targeting the most corrupt cities in swing states.
@Ronald J. Ward:
Wow, you don’t give up, do you? Is there any point in asking you to provide your proof of Trump’s rallies endorsing white supremacy? It’s a new year…2021. Maybe your resolution was to stop being a cowardly liar and answer the question about where you come up with your bullshit? Provide an example of Trump endorsing white supremacy.
No, it just seems to appeal to liberals. Like yourself. You have to support it because your candidates love it. Which party is it that idolizes Harvey Milk? How about was Epstein’s best customers? Maybe it’s just abusing children, like Warnock. More hetero? Then it’s raping and abusing women, like Biden (the Biden’s), Warnock, Ellison, Grayson, Clinton, Kennedy… hell, THAT list goes on and on and on. What a sick, demented party you are a part of.
@kitt: Let’s not forget Obama’s choice for Safe Schools Czar. Perhaps NAMBLA proponent Kevin Jennings was supposed to be an attempt at humor, but the left loved it. AJ loved it. In their New World, everyone should be able to do anything they want to anyone they want… as long as they have the power to hold them down.
The Republicans could run a Black Lesbian, and the Leftist nutjob cult would find fabricate some non-existent “proofs” of her being a “white supremacist”.
Trump is not a racist, and in fact did more for Blacks that the cardboard cutout half-black savior, Barack Obama.
It’s just fact.
Apparently being a President involves doing more than hanging out with basketball players and greenlighting drone strikes.
Trump is the real President we all deserved, and the imposture Biden will never be accepted as the President.
You have to win elections for that.
@Ronald J. Ward:
Said every losing, totalitarian shit-ruler in the history of humanity. Hitler, Chavez, Stalin, Moa, and now Biden.
I think you are now realizing the worst thing that could happen for your “cause” was installing a resident against the will of legal voters.
Biden would say yes.
Trump will do more in the next four years than he did while legally in office.
Hope you’re ready, traitor.
@Ronald J. Ward:
You can’t be a white supremacist organization when you:
1. Say you are open to all races, and
2. Have leader who is black.
You’re a f*cking idiot.
@Nathan Blue:
Facts are not facts simply because some unhinged hate spewing indoctrinated Trump cultist says so on a web blog.
The very denial of Trump’s blaring racism before and after his election is an amazing example of disregarding facts and fabricating your own. You cannot allow yourself to accept Trump’s open racism anymore than you can allow yourself to acknowledge that we certainly aren’t “rounding the curve” as the man lied about or that he ever lied at all or that Russia did indeed interfere with the 2016 election and continues today. And accordingly, you will never accept the will of the people regardless of how blaring that evidence is or what becomes exposed.
.
And that my friend is the bottom line and your justification. It has nothing to do with the legalities of the election but rather you deeply believe that Trump is the “president we all deserve”.
We’ve been watching this movie for 4 years and the ending is just as expected. Trump has instructed you for 4 years to cry “rigged election” in the event he lost the election and you are obediently performing on cue.
@Ronald J. Ward: Not one word on the fraud uncovered in this election why dont you go lay on the RR tracks. While you are there see if you can come up with a single example of your false accusations of the President. Dont get up from the RR Tracks until your googling machine or MSM has that example. Better take a lunch with you.Should be easy peasy its blaring as you say.
@Ronald J. Ward:
THIS, from a guy who NEVER provides any links for his claims.
Ignore the fact that both Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson praised Trump for all he did for the black community as a real estate developer.
Ignore the fact that you label those who support Trump as Klan. All you do is show your hatred for half the nation’s population. Never mind that there are millions like me who chose someone else in the 2016 primary but once Trump was the nominee, voted for him only to be pleasantly surprised with how conservative he actually governed. To you, we are all Klansmen. Perhaps we should start labeling all Democrat rallies as Black Panther rallies, or point out that Obama started his political career in the living room of a white terrorist.
So, why don’t you point out what the nation’s first black president actually did for the black community? I know, you are not up to the difficult fact proving, so you will just come back with some glib answer that is really not an answer.
Woodrow Wilson is glorified in the Democrat Party. Perhaps you would like to show all us “Klansmen” how well he did with a pandemic that killed millions of people compared to Trump?
But then, you are just another left winger that never compares how the left is, in your mind, so much better than the right with actual facts. You are just here to promote the same talking point bullshit as your fellow Communists.
Curt should have left you blocked. Liars have no place in polite society.
@Nathan Blue: WE CAUGHT THEM: Pallets of Fake Ballots in Georgia’s Fulton County Were Identified, Filmed and Sampled Before Moving Trucks Picked Them Up and Shredded Them.
@Ronald J. Ward:
Provide an example.

Trump’s great economy? The national debt topped $23 trillion for the first time, income inequality worse than ever, millions of Americans lost health insurance, manufacturing jobs have retracted, farm bankruptcies highest ever with Wisconsin dairy farms all but wiped out, the working man now paying more taxes than corporations, and economists predicting a recession within the next year.
As for Trump’s racism and decency, well:
Trump flew to Mississippi to campaign for a U.S. Senate seat for someone who openly wished for a front row seat to lynchings and openly stated “It’s a great idea to make it harder for ‘liberal folks’ to vote. He flew to Alabama to support a pedophile for a U.S. Senate seat. He flew to Montana to support a congressman guilty of physically body slamming a reporter-and even encouraged it.
From the moral aspect, being an outright con man comes to mind, an uncontrollable liar fits, has a lifelong history of racism, swindling and cheating people, even brags about it and admitted during the debates that cheating hard working Americans out of their pay was “good business”, surrounds himself with pedophiles such as Epstein, Casablancas, Arlf, Nader, Cohn, campaigned for pedophile Roy Moore for U.S. Senate, is even an admitted groper himself, appointed a pro-rape judge(Neomi Rao) for a lifetime seat, has over 24 women accusing him of sexual misconduct acts, generally defends male rapist while blaming victims, loves to coddle with and protect brutal murderous dictators (I’m just glad Obama took bin Laden out before Trump had a chance to buddy up with him), suggest there are good Nazis, and of course, promoting violence of his opposition.
From a policy perspective, I suppose my biggest objection is that he’s lied to and thrown the working man under the bus so many times and with such disregard.:
Another of Trump’s big lie and scam was his appeal to the working men and Unions.
TRUMP’S APPOINTMDENTS AND RESULTS
Secretary of Labor- Eugene Scalia, a man with a history of helping business clients screw over employees, weakening OSHA rules, and union busting.
Deputy Sec of Labor- Patrick Pizzella, a former employee of the National Right to Work Committee and has lobbied against raising sweatshop-level wages in American owned companies in U.S. owned territories, many paying less than $1 an hour.
Former Sec of Labor from 2017-2019-Rene Alexander Acosta with a history of anti-worker protections and adamantly against unions and minimum wage. Also approved a plea deal that allowed Jeffrey Epstein to plead guilty.
Assistant Secretary of the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA), David Zatezalo, a former CEO of a coal mining operation with serious mining violations.
And now Trump’s Dept of Labor hired 2 union busters to oversee unions. 2-5-2020
National Labor Relations Board appointees:
1) Marvin Kaplan, whose sole experience with labor law is drafting legislation to weaken worker protections and holding hearings to criticize the NLRB.
2) John Ring, a partner at anti-union law firm Morgan-Dale Lewis
3) William Emanuel, a partner at union-busting law firm Littler Mendelson.
Trump twice nominated Thomas Farr for a lifetime judicial seat, a lawyer who defended employers and corporations charged with employment discrimination, has fought efforts to create safe working conditions for employees, opposed by the AFL-CIO, who’s 1st job out of law school was working at an anti-union organization, the so-called National Right to Work Foundation, has continued to defend employers against discrimination claims and worker safety claims ever since, authored a brief asking the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a NC Supreme Court decision that invalidated a state workers’ compensation law that would not permit workers who developed chronic lung disease due to asbestos exposure from obtaining a remedy, and defended a company that refused to allow a union to take temperature readings in the workplace where glass-making workers were exposed to extreme heat conditions.
After promising the working class to rid Washington of corporate lobbyist, let’s look at who he has installed:
Trump chose an oil lobbyist to run the Dept of Interior, a coal lobbyist as head of the EPA, a pharmaceutical lobbyist as head of the Health and Human Services, a Raytheon lobbyist for acting Secretary of Defense, a billionaire charter school heiress to run the Dept of Education, and a banking executive for Secretary of the Treasury.

@Ronald J. Ward: You simply CAN’T tell the truth, can you?
@Deplorable Me:
A Trump licker cannot distinguish what is true and what isn’t and cannot accept the truth when it is in plain sight.
That has been identified repeatedly and that is the problem.
@Ronald J. Ward: Well, I am able to provide citations and facts. You can’t. Being a Biden-banger, you only accept lies. Being a Biden-blower, you accept, promote and commit racism. You’ve made clear your preference for Hitler than a President that actually helps this nation.
@Deplorable Me:
As is SOP for Ward/AJ, no links connected to his list.
How sad that someone is so eat up with hatred for half the nation, a nation that provides him with things not possible in his native land.
There are so many holes in his list it resembles Swiss cheese.
@Ronald J. Ward: Do you think KC can continue cranking out Diapers with the leading cause of death in this nation being abortion?
Look at business model of toys r us, lets donate to planned parenthood.
BTW KC was advertising on the Radio here looking for workers, during the last admin you couldnt beg an application. Some of the Mills here are over 100 years old the machinery to make Huggies here is over 45 years old, they still run partially on 25 cycle off river dams, the HQ moved to Texas.
Appleton Coated changed names the mill is down the street from me with a now hiring sign on the door.
Appvion is North Americas leading manufacturer of thermal, carbonless and security paper, headquartered in Appleton, Wisconsin.
The Locks mill is also running under the name of Midwest papers. You know nothing!
But still nothing not one thing about Trump being racist or election fraud. Back to the RR tracks man child.
@retire05: Oh, the entire thing was just a cut and past from some Facebook post he saw. Since it reinforces his beliefs, which are also based on the unsubstantiated BS he’s been told, he gobbles it up. He can’t even provide some MoveOn, NYT or Atlantic propaganda to “back up” his lies. Belief in hate is just that easy.
@kitt: Idiots like AJ don’t realize or won’t admit that the damage done by 8 years of Obama/Biden can’t be repaired in 4 Trump years, especially when Democrats control the House but also work harder to oppose Trump than they ever have for the American people. Trump waved that “magic wand” Obama didn’t know existed and brought thousands of manufacturing, energy and other good-paying jobs back. But, there’s a reason Obama wasn’t aware of how it would be done; Trump’s “magic wand” was LEADERSHIP.
@retire05:
That you would dismiss in it’s entirety the list of Trump verbatim quotes and indisputable appointees and Executive Orders as well as documented actions in indicative of your denial of reality, a covering of the ears and singing “la la la”.
Your excuse is that I didn’t provide you a link. Had I, you would have promptly rejected it. If it were actual footage of Trump’s very words, you would have ignored it. You are after all, defending Trump from being referred to as a liar. You cannot accept the reality that he lies profusely and that explains why you cannot condemn him in any area-links be damned. You’ve proved this his entire term.
Trump will go down in history as a colossal mistake, a con man who raped the country for his own personal gain, the snake that told you he would bite you if you gave him the opportunity.
It’s at least somewhat therapeutic for Nathan and the basket here to somewhat acknowledge the reality that Trump will be out of the WH. How long you will kneel at the alter of Trump is unknown but I can assure you, you are a minority. A blind, ignorant, deranged minority, incapable of accepting reality when it unfolds right before your eyes.
