Indeed, in the past weeks, our American Thinker authors have added greatly to that body of work. Today, though, there was an explosion of information — including Rudy Giuliani's stunning statements before the Pennsylvania Legislature — so I wanted to put a road map together for you in a single post. Fasten your seatbelts and hold on to your hats, because this is going to be a wild ride of amazing, horrifying, and fascinating information about the greatest election heist in American history.
3. Gregory Strenstrom testified before the Pennsylvania Legislature that USB drives with data were missing, that people were walking around with bags of USBs that they plugged into voting machines, that the chain of custody for drives and ballots was broken, that unopened mail-in ballots and 47 USB cards vanished, and that various other documents and records were destroyed.
As a reminder, it's illegal to destroy voting records. Moreover, the doctrine of spoliation holds that when people destroy records they're required to maintain, the law will presume that the records were adverse to them...
(I assume that Democrats didn't bring significant fraud to the 2016 election because they didn't think they had to. They were so confident that Hillary couldn't lose that they skipped taking out their "insurance policy.")...Read all.
"Students who attend events with more than just their immediate household will be required to either take online classes for a two-week quarantine period or quarantine for a week and then have a negative COVID-19 test.
Vermont Gov. Phil Scott said during a press conference..."We understand how difficult this is, but since we know these types of gatherings have been the cause of so many outbreaks, we've got to do all we can to slow this down," Scott said.
...“From my standpoint, this is fair warning to those of you who are planning to have gatherings from outside your household for Thanksgiving,” Scott added.
“If you don’t want your kids to have to transition to remote learning and quarantine for a seven-day period, maybe you ought to make other plans.”.....Read all.
One of the high points of the Trump administration is the inroads he made with black voters. Every Republican has been saying for years we need to. The guy the media paints as Racist McHitler actually got it done. It wasn't only with black voters either, to the dismay of leftists anywhere. The question now is how to build on that. Jason Whitlock has an idea. Conservatives need to expose what the left thinks about the black community.
Whitlock said white liberals want to limit the freedom black people enjoy in America. He takes it a step further here.
"France will soon be a far less free country than it is now...
The country is considering three worrisome new laws
......The bill includes a provision criminalizing on-campus gatherings that 'trouble the tranquility and good order of the establishment' with a fine of up to 45,000 euros and a prison term of up to three years.
...A second piece of legislation...Dubbed the "Confirming Republican Principles" bill, it would assign all French children a tracking number to enforce compulsory attendance in public or government-recognized schools, putting an end to homeschooling and unaccredited religious schools, and ensuring that all children are educated in the values of the French Republic....Read all.

In the tense days after the election as claims of widespread fraud were being disseminated on the platform, Facebook reportedly made an "emergency change" to its algorithm to suppress news sources that were spreading what the company believed to be "election misinformation."
POLL: Who is the most corrupt?
According to the New York Times, the change involved weighting news sources using a "secret internal ranking" of publishers that Facebook created based on "signals about the quality of their journalism." The result became the more prominent featuring of posts from mainstream news outlets such as "CNN, The New York Times, and NPR," and the suppression of posts from "right-wing" outlets.
""...Penguin Random House...At a packed ‘town hall’ meeting, staff were said to be in tears that Penguin were publishing the book, and over 70 have submitted anonymous complaints to the company’s ‘diversity and inclusion committee’.
...But considering that PRH employees are now in the business of pulling books they object to..."
"Not all of them mind you, just the ones that meet a wholly arbitrary standard that the governor plucked out of thin air because power is fun!
So quit complaining, or they just might give that dial another turn.
"A public health order from the governor's office shut down more than 25 essential businesses Monday with four or more rapid responses of COVID-19 cases reported within a 14-day period. The order requires the businesses to close for two weeks."...Read all.
"An acquaintance, someone who knows my political alignments, asked, somewhat sarcastically if “you and your Ayn Rand buddies expect the Biden administration to be like Orwell’s “1984”.
I said, “No. I’m not thinking 1984, I’m thinking more like 1978.”
...I’m old enough to remember the Carter administration,” I said.
...One of the jokes about the Obama years was that a replay of the Carter years was about the best that could be expected, but Obama was a far greater global interventionist than Carter.
...But Biden is not Obama.
He may well be the anti-Obama.
Biden has no outward appearance of authority.
He is like an elderly Beto O’Rourke, a transparent wisp of a man with so little energy, drive, mental acuity, and independent thought, I think the next four years will be pretty much guaranteed to be Carter II, with cardigan and all.
...The Iran Deal is one example, the “red-line” mess another and the disaster in Ukraine yet another.
You might point out that Biden wasn’t directly responsible for these, that they were mostly Obama’s idiocy, aided by Hillary and the long-faced John F. Kerry (who served in Vietnam), but the fact is that Biden is promoting Obama, Hillary and Kerry’s bench-warming JV players to varsity starters in his administration...Read all.
Michigan Taxpayers Still On Hook For $5.3 Billion To Corporations In Next 10 Years
"One of the state of Michigan’s primary methods of delivering taxpayer-funded subsidies to select private businesses was a law and program called the Michigan Economic Growth Authority.
...the program has been suspended since 2011..
Yet state officials anticipate they will be handing out refundable tax credits to businesses as far out as 2031, according to the its most recent report.
"Refundable" means a good portion of the benefits will go to recipients in the form of cash, not just reduced tax bills.
The exact amount is a government secret, however.
The Michigan Economic Development Corporation is the state agency that manages all this, and it projects the state still has $5.3 billion more in previously promised MEGA tax credits to give out over the next 10 years...Read all.

Under Pope Francis, we can count on the Vatican saying and doing odd things.
Take the Vatican’s 2020 nativity scene. Please…

The True Story of Thanksgiving - The Rush Limbaugh Show "...What the History Books Never Told You: The True Story of Thanksgiving.” ...“On August 1, 1620, the Mayflower set sail. It carried a total of 102 passengers, including forty Pilgrims,” now known as Pilgrims, “led by William Bradford. ...During the first winter, half the Pilgrims — including Bradford’s own wife — died of either starvation, sickness or exposure.” They endured that first winter. “When spring finally came,” they had, by that time, met the indigenous people, the Indians, and indeed the “Indians taught the settlers how to plant corn, fish for cod and skin beavers” and other animals “for coats.” But there wasn’t any prosperity. ...“This is important to understand because this is where modern American history lessons often end. Thanksgiving is actually explained in some textbooks as a holiday for which the Pilgrims gave thanks to the Indians for saving their lives, rather than what it really was. ...That all happened, but that’s not — according to William Bradford’s journal — what they ultimately gave thanks for. ...“All of the land they cleared and the houses they built belong to the community as well.” Everything belonged to everybody and everybody had one share in it. They were going to distribute it equally.” That was considered to be the epitome of fairness, sharing the hardship burdens and everything like that. ...“Bradford, who had become the new governor of the colony, recognized that” it wasn’t working. It “was as costly and destructive…” His own journals chronicle the reasons it didn’t work. ...“What Bradford and his community found,” and I’m going to use basically his own words, “was that the most creative and industrious people had no incentive to work any harder than anyone else… “For young men that were most able and fit for labor and service did repine that they should spend their time and strength to work for other men’s wives and children without any recompense,'” without any payment, “‘that was thought injustice.’ ...“So what did Bradford’s community try next? ...Every family was assigned its own plot of land to work and permitted to market its own crops and products. And what was the result? ‘ This had very good success,’ wrote Bradford, ‘for it made all hands [everybody] industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been.’ … ...The first Thanksgiving was William Bradford and Plymouth Colony thanking God for their blessings. That’s the first Thanksgiving. Nothing wrong with being grateful to the Indians; don’t misunderstand. But the true meaning of Thanksgiving — and this is what George Washington recognized in his first Thanksgiving proclamation."
