The consequences of a stolen election spell imminent danger for America
Peter, Bayou Renaissance Man - 14 hours ago
Anybody with two working brain cells to rub together knows that the November 2020 elections were stolen. There is no doubt in my mind that the Biden administration is illegitimate, and the Democratic Party's control over the Senate is illegitimate, as a result of electoral fraud. The evidence of that is overwhelming. In fact, it's confirmed by the machinations of the Democratic Party and progressive political machine to prevent evidence of that fraud from being properly, honestly and effectively tested in court. Just look at their efforts to stop or impede vote fraud invest...
