Democrats Sue Russia, WikiLeaks And Trump Campaign Over Election 'Conspiracy'

I think we are going to have a new Twitter War.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

Why don’t they sue themselves for what they did to skew favor to Hillary?

"There's no serious person out there who would suggest somehow that you could even rig America's elections... If whenever things are going badly for you and you lose you start blaming somebody else, then you don't have what it takes to be in this job." -President Barack Obama, deriding the very notion of a rigged election in 2016.

You are conflating Rigging and Influencing. Two different things
Trump claimed during the campaign that the election was rigged with Illegal voters.

Bunk. Wasserman didn't rig anything. The DNC needed Clinton's cash.

Brazile certainly effed up but the stuff she relayed was obvious. Questions about the death penalty? Really?

And the evidence that the influencing had any measurable effect, is what?

Russia made some Yahoo posts that nobody was aware existed, until after it was over.

The Democrats rigged their primary to nominate a candidate who is so loathsome, that merely mentioning her name makes normal men clench their but cheeks. Maybe that had something to do with it? Look at how she handled this loss, blaming every liberal boogeyman in sight, and in the end, blaming women for being voting slaves to their men (there's all kinds of evidence that happened).

She's un-likeable, a truly wretched woman, who no matter what she says, men picture their wives yelling "take out the garbage!!" She's like the whole nation's ex-wife.

Read the last part of Obama's quote, about how being a sore loser means you aren't up for the job. According to Obama, then, we dodged a bullet, didn't we?

The phrase you inserted, explains why, exactly, you can't rig elections, according to Obama. That doesn't refute my point, it bolsters it.

Yeah but it's OK when they do it.

Also the super-delegates, whose entire existence is designed to in-do the popular vote, so that the DNC can get the candidate they want.

“I knew it. I knew this would happen to me,” Clinton reportedly said, according to excerpts from a new book published by The Daily Beast. “They were never going to let me be president.”

who is "they".....the Russians?...the stupid American people?....the deplorables?

Borrowing G.O.P. Playbook, Democratic States Sue the Government and Rack Up Wins

Republicans initiated legal action against the Obama administration Friday over its use of executive authority, an issue that helped galvanize the GOP to victory in the Nov. 4 midterm elections.


you guys love seeing only what you want to see as if its a new thing

What ever happened to the "more highly educated" part of being liberal? Or does being liberal mean never having to communicate clearly...just put on a hat, hold a poster and chant a rhyme? I've been listening to NPR a lot...and I'm beginning to get what is wrong in the heads of the left but having to listen or read something repeatedly in order to discern intent and meaning makes it very hard to put into context.

Filed in federal court in Manhattan, the lawsuit says the “illegal conspiracy” between the three groups undercut the party’s message and “sowed discord within the Democratic Party at a time when party unity was essential to electoral success.
“At the same time, Defendants’ conduct resulted in a dramatic drop in donations to the DNC,” the lawsuit says.




wait...so the party of "love" and unity was experiencing discord and disunity and underfunding? ...maybe a protest is in order...some civil disobedience always gets things moving...fight the power!....or something....

This sounds almost like a Trump rant but you exceeded the Tweet character limit.

Yes, they work to ensure that the DNC-preferred candidate gets the nomination, regardless of what the voters (what an inconvenience THEY are) might do. The RNC sure as hell didn't get the nominee they wanted. But they allowed the voters to decide.

As to my reading comprehension being poor, I noticed, as always, you didn't correct me. Gee I wonder why that is...

more above the law criminality from democrats




"The press continues to feed the dying Russia collusion conspiracy theory, spending Friday’s news cycle regurgitating Democrat talking points from the just-filed Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act lawsuit against the Trump campaign, WikiLeaks, and Russia.

Yet the mainstream media took no notice of last week’s federal court filing that exposes an $84 million money-laundering conspiracy the Democratic National Committee and the Hillary Clinton campaign executed during the 2016 presidential election in violation of federal campaign-finance law.

That lawsuit, filed last week in a DC district court, summarizes the DNC-Clinton conspiracy and provides detailed evidence from Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings confirming the complaint’s allegations that Democrats undertook an extensive scheme to violate federal campaign limits."

http://thefederalist.com/2018/04/24/...ed-84-million/

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.
