DeSantis Wins Election Case vs. Democrat Russia Hoaxer Marc Elias

Posted by FactReal on May 1, 2023

Florida Scores Huge Win for Free and Fair Elections Over Marc Elias and an Obama Judge RedState.com reported on April 27, 2023:

On Thursday, a panel of the 11th US Circuit Court of Appeals handed Florida Governor Ron DeSantis a huge victory over Marc Elias, judicial overreach, and industrial strength stupidity. By a 2-1 decision, with an Obama judge dissenting, the panel upheld nearly all of Florida’s overhaul of voting rules in May 2021. [Emphasis added]

Background
In May 2021, the Florida legislature passed a major overhaul of state election law. The law’s goals were to make elections more transparent and trustworthy while outlawing known abuses of the system, particularly those abuses that came into being based on the whim of unelected officials and judges to allegedly allow the system to cope with an election during a pandemic.

WHO IS MARC ELIAS?

Marc Elias was behind the Trump-Russia collusion hoax and the election chaos in 2020:

Democrats’ 2020 election confusion operation has been led by the same outfit that helped manufacture the Russian collusion hoax: the law firm Perkins Coie. Marc Elias, Perkins Coie’s head of election law, is also the Democratic National Committee’s election lawyer, and he’s been spearheading many of these election-weakening lawsuits while claiming to be fighting “voter suppression.” In 2009, Elias got Minnesota Sen. Norm Coleman’s narrow 2008 victory reversed in court so Al Franken could take his seat.

Elias was also general counsel to the Hillary Clinton campaign in 2016. The Washington Post identified him in 2017 as the man who commissioned Fusion GPS to craft its dossier of lies used as a pretext for assaulting the results of the 2016 election through U.S. intelligence agencies with the Russia collusion hoax. In 2020, he focused on undermining the election a different way.

Marc Elias was central player in both 2016 Russia collusion hoax and 2020 campaign to upend voting laws in midstream

Data: Democrat Rep. Val Demings Voted 100% for Biden Agenda

Posted by FactReal on October 12, 2022

Florida Democrat Congresswoman Val Demings voted 100% of the time for the Biden agenda according to data from FiveThirtyEight.com published on Sept. 28, 2022. (Archive)

Demings is challenging Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) in the upcoming midterm elections.

The data show Demings voted 97 out of 97 times to approve Joe Biden’s destructive policies. Under the ‘Agree With Biden?’ column, there are only checkmarks indicating she voted for ALL of Biden’s policies.

At 100% with Biden, Val Demings is even worse than Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock who voted 96% of the time with Biden.

That makes Val Demings a super-Biden rubber stamp! Vote for her if you like the Democrats’ extremism.

Mark Levin: The FBI raid was over documents, seriously?:
“Fox News host Mark Levin ripped the FBI and Department of Justice for the raid on former President Donald Trump’s residence, saying it was a politically motivated move.”

Tump’s posts on his platform TruthSocial.com:

Trump about the Raid: ‘I did nothing wrong, they did. It is prosecutorial misconduct!’:

Here we go again! The Radical Left Dems fraudulently created the now fully debunked Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax, they got caught and failed, but tried to get me with “obstructing” their Fake investigation of their fraudulent, made up story. So, they make up a vicious & fake story, I fight it, and they claim I obstructed the investigation. It didn’t work, but now they are doing the same thing with the RAID on Mar-a-Lago assault. I did nothing wrong, they did. It is prosecutorial misconduct!

Election Interference by DOJ and FBI:

The DOJ and FBI are practicing Election Interference at the highest and most dishonest level our Country has ever seen before, both in the Midterms, and the 2024 Presidential Election. They allowed spying on my campaign (and did nothing!), told Facebook and the Media that the Laptop from Hell was “Russian Disinformation” (it wasn’t!), and now they don’t want anyone to read the words and meaning of the very important Presidential Records Act, under which I did nothing wrong, BUT THEY DID – RAID!

Today’s news reports (August 22, 2022)

Trump lawyers filed motion asserting his rights under the Fourth Amendment:
Trump posted on TruthSocial at 5:45

We have just filed a motion in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida strongly asserting my rights, including under the Fourth Amendment of our Constitution, regarding the unnecessary, unwarranted, and unAmerican Break-In by dozens of FBI agents, and others, of my home, Mar-a-Lago, in Palm Beach, Florida…

He attached a press release from ‘Save America.’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:

– August 22, 2022 –
Statement by Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the United States of America, Re: Break-In of Mar-a-Lago

We have just filed a motion in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida strongly asserting my rights, including under the Fourth Amendment of our Constitution, regarding the unnecessary, unwarranted, and unAmerican Break-In by dozens of FBI agents, and others, of my home, Mar-a-Lago, in Palm Beach, Florida.

They demanded that the security cameras be turned off, a request we rightfully denied. They prevented my attorneys from observing what was being taken in the raid, saying “absolutely not.” They took documents covered by attorney-client and executive privilege, which is not allowed. They took my passports. They even brought a “safe cracker” and successfully broke into my personal safe, which revealed…nothing!

We are now demanding that the Department of “Justice” be instructed to immediately STOP the review of documents illegally seized from my home. ALL documents have been previously declassified.

We are demanding the appointment of a SPECIAL MASTER to oversee the handling of the materials taken in the raid.

We are further demanding that the DOJ be forced to turn over a REAL, without “plants,” inventory of my property that was taken and disclose where that property is now located. We are demanding that all items wrongfully taken from my home be IMMEDIATELY returned.

The wrongful, overbroad warrant was signed by a Magistrate Judge who recused himself just two months ago, from a MAJOR civil suit that I filed, because of his bias and animus toward me.

This Mar-a-Lago Break-In, Search, and Seizure was illegal and unconstitutional, and we are taking all actions necessary to get the documents back, which we would have given to them without the necessity of the despicable raid of my home, so that I can give them to the National Archives until they are required for the future Donald J. Trump Presidential Library and Museum.

I will never stop fighting for the American people, our Country, and the Rule of Law.

Make America Great Again!

Full text of National Archives letter to Trump on classified documents May 10, 2022:
Letter from Debra Steidel Wall, Acting Archivist of the United States:

The Counsel to the President has informed me that, in light of the particular circumstances presented here, President Biden defers to my determination, in consultation with the Assistant Attorney General for the Office of Legal Counsel, regarding whether or not I should uphold the former President’s purported “protective assertion of executive privilege.”

[…]
I have therefore decided not to honor the former President’s “protective” claim of privilege.

The Elections Canvassing Commission met this morning to certify the results of the November 6, 2018 election.

Via CBS Miami:

TALLAHASSEE (CBSMiami/NSF) – After a fierce election cycle that resulted in three statewide recounts, the Florida Elections Canvassing Commission on Tuesday certified the results of the Nov. 6 elections.

The commission, made up of Attorney General Pam Bondi, Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam and state Sen. Rob Bradley, R-Fleming Island, certified the results without discussion.

Typically, Gov. Rick Scott serves on the commission but recused himself because he ran for U.S. Senate this year. Also recused was state Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis, who was on the Nov. 6 ballot. Bradley was appointed to fill the third slot on the commission.

The commission certified the official results turned in last Sunday:
* Florida Governor: (after a machine recount)
Ron DeSantis (Republican) defeated Andrew Gillum (Democrat) by 32,463 (0.40%).

Scot-free? Brenda Snipes Illegalities and Shenanigans (LIST)

Posted by FactReal on November 20, 2018

SHOULD SNIPES GET OFF SCOT-FREE?
Broward Supervisor of Elections Brenda Snipes is a prime example of public officials being above the law. Instead of being punished by law, they are remunerated with high salaries and lifetime pensions paid by taxpayers.

Now that Brenda Snipes has resigned, let’s remember her record and see if she deserves a second pension paid by taxpayers (details under “SNIPES’ PENSION & HIGH SALARY”):

Accepting terms of a plea bargain, Circuit Judge Susie L. Norby sentenced Swenson to 90 days in jail, followed by three years’ probation. She also ordered Swenson to pay a total of $500 in fines and to repay the Secretary of State’s Office $12,997 for the cost of investigating and prosecuting the case.

Norby also banned Swenson from working in future elections and ordered her to stay out of Clackamas County’s elections offices.
