Republicans Continue To File Lawsuits To Gain Election Control

In Arizona, an advocacy group founded by the creepy and dangerous Stephen Miller is advancing a bold legal theory: that judges can throw out election results over "failures or irregularities" by local officials. And of course Republicans are in charge. Via Reuters:

The lawsuit by the America First Legal Foundation, a conservative advocacy group, says the court in such cases should be able to toss the election results and order new rounds of voting in two counties in Arizona, where Democratic candidate Vice President Kamala Harris is leading Trump in the polls by a razor-thin margin. Almost four years after former president Trump and his allies tried and failed to overturn his election defeat with a flurry of more than 60 hastily arranged lawsuits, Republicans have launched an aggressive legal campaign laying the groundwork to challenge potential losses.

The Republican National Committee says it is involved in more than 120 lawsuits across 26 states, in a strategy that some legal experts and voting rights groups say is meant to undercut faith in the system. Republicans say the lawsuits are aimed at restoring faith in elections by ensuring people don't vote illegally. Trump and his allies have falsely claimed that his 2020 election loss to Joe Biden was tainted by widespread fraud.

'It Is Not True': ABC Host Interrupts Top Vance Surrogate On Pet-eating Claims

ABC News host Martha Raddatz interrupted a top surrogate for Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance Sunday after he refused to deny false claims that Haitians are eating pets in Springfield, Ohio.

Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN), who is helping Vance prepare for the vice presidential debate by playing the part of Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz, appeared on ABC's This Week program.

"Trump last night called Kamala Harris mentally disabled," Raddatz noted. "He said that Joe Biden became that way, she was born that way. Do you think Kamala Harris is mentally disabled? Do you approve of that kind of language?"

"I think Kamala Harris is the wrong choice for America," Emmer stated. "I think Kamala Harris is actually as bad or worse as the administration that we've witnessed for the last four years, Martha."

"Congressman, do you approve of that language?" the host interrupted. "Do you approve of that language, Donald Trump calling her mentally disabled, mentally impaired?"

"I think we should stick to the issues," Emmer admitted.

Raddatz moved on to the topic of immigration.

"I can't believe we're still talking about this, but the baseless claims elevated by Vance and Trump that Haitian migrants were eating their pets," the host said. "If the moderators in the debate ask Vance about this, should he finally make clear it is not true?"

Did Mark Robinson's Pants Actually Light On Fire?

Mark Robinson, proud Black Nazi, pro-slavery, trans porn lover, and alleged urine sex play lover, allegedly suffered burns at a campaign event on Friday.

Here is my question: DID HIS PANTS ACTUALLY LIGHT ON FIRE FROM ALL HIS LIES???

His "communications director", one of the few staff to remain after the mass exodus following that bombshell CNN expose just one week ago, told the media that Robinson "is currently being treated for burns. Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson is currently being treated for burns following an incident at a campaign event in Mt. Airy. He is in good spirits."

No further details have been provided.

Robinson was supposed to speak at a Faith & Freedom event on Saturday, but the event was cancelled following the *burn* incident and due to the aftermath or Hurricane Helene.

So what happened? Robinson cannot be trust to tell the truth. Did he pick up a candle and have wax drip on his hand? Did he spill coffee on himself? How about some ash from a lit cigar? If it was a serious FIRE burn, surely photos or video would have made it to social media already. I mean, nothing stays off twitter anymore.

Keep an eye out or more details. I am still going with "pants lit on fire."

We Agree, Marge, Republicans Don't Deserve To Be Reelected

"Controversial" (yeah) Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene threw her party under the bus on Thursday, saying that Republicans don't deserve to be reelected. We agree! They proved they can't govern, including the sporkfooted troll doll, who voted nay on funding the government.

As usual, Marge didn't seem to make sense on the Real America's Voice Show "War Room" as she said that Republicans shouldn't hold the majority but to "hold your nose and vote for that RINO that you absolutely hate."

"Because the truth is, and everyone needs to understand this, I share the anger and frustration, and I don't think Republicans deserve to be reelected to hold the majority,," she said. And it's a double-edged sword, and here it is."

Ok, we disagree with the following part, but it's nice to watch her panic.

"We have to elect President Trump in order to control the federal government, in order to take back all of these huge agencies and departments and set the course right," she continued. "We also have to control the House because if we don't control the House, the Democrats are going to rewrite the tax code."

"So it is a nasty, double-edged sword, and here's what I'm telling everyone," she said. "Look, vote for (former) President Trump like your life depends on it, and then hold your nose and vote for that RINO that you absolutely hate, because we need a good tax code in place."
