On Monday, the DOJ was authorized to look into substantial allegations of voter and tabulation irregularities. The memo, signed by Attorney General William Barr, was addressed to multiple departments such as the national security division, criminal division, and FBI Director Christopher Wray.
“Now that the voting has concluded, it is imperative that the American people can trust that our elections were conducted in such a way that the outcomes accurately reflect the will of the voters
That trust has been eroded for many who have seen Republican observers kicked out of polling centers during the vote counting and ballot verification phases.
Furthermore, the late-night ballot dumps that went exclusively to Joe Biden have raised many questions as statisticians have said these vote dumps represent a statistical impossibility.
The left is claiming that any investigation by the DOJ is politically motivated, but Barr set some strict guidelines as to what the attorneys should spend their time and efforts on.
“Given this, and given that voting in our current elections has now concluded, I authorize you to pursue substantial allegations of voting and vote tabulation irregularities prior to the certification of elections in your jurisdictions in certain cases, as I have already done in specific instances,” ...
He also urged for the DOJ to exercise “great care and judgment’ and not launch inquiries on “specious, speculative, fanciful or far-fetched claims.”
Barr notes that, in some instances, the Elections Crime Branch's general practice has been to not take any overt steps to investigate until the election results are certified and all recounts and contests have concluded.
This practice seems to be one that would come too little, too late, and doesn't make sense to many.
Barr recognizes this in his memo:
"Such a passive and delayed enforcement approach can result in situations in which election misconduct cannot be realistically rectified."
In the end, Barr says that Americans should have full confidence in our election process and results and that they deserve nothing less.
Good. I certainly have numerous questions and uncertainties about the entire 2020 election. It just doesn’t appear statically correct, but I am not a professional.
Fine but what will be the result of yet another “investigation”?!?
There have been endless such “investigations”, naming of Special Prosecutors, etc., who do nothing but line their pockets with copieous dollars at the public trough WITH NO RESULTS!
Enough of this crap!

Amen! So far a lot of talk but too timid to take action: the phony Russia investigation, the spying, Hunter Biden, etc.
THE ANATOMY OF DEMOCRACY
Definition of “democracy” from Dictionary.com:
Government by the people; a form of government in which the supreme power is vested in the people and exercised directly by them or by their elected agents under a free electoral system
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/democracy
We, the People must demand that we receive objective and truthful information to allow us to enjoy a functional democracy as it is defined.
Without TRUTH, our efforts at democracy fall within the genre of “garbage in, garbage out” and our efforts at achieving a functional democracy will fail. Thus, any intentional impediment to truth must be eliminated and considered problematic and conceivably treasonous.
If it were rational and logical to conclude that our goal is a functional democracy, it appears that an intentional and material lie or the withholding of truth by a Senator or Representative should be punished by expulsion and criminal penalties.
Our forefathers who wrote the Constitution designed a system of checks and balances by establishing the three branches of government; legislative, executive, and judicial.
Codified within the First Amendment of the Constitution is that Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech or of the press. This portion of the First Amendment enables the press or anyone else to present objective and truthful observations of our government. The First Amendment does not imply that the press or anyone is protected from untruthful information.
Whereas the press has the freedom to present the results of observations and investigations, it cannot present knowingly false information and, if it were to do so, would be subject to financial and criminal penalties. The withholding of exculpatory information would be subject to the same penalties. The critical tools which must be utilized by the press are objectivity and truth.
Large entities which are conduits and disseminators of information should be characterized as utilities, i.e., not proprietary.
Based upon the above, it should be considered that these entities, Twitter, Google, and Facebook are treasonous. An effective Congress should assess substantial fines and demand an immediate reversal of the withholding of the New York Post article.
The key elements of a functional democracy are objectivity and truthfulness.

I keep praying for this to adjudicated WITHOUT BIAS! IF after 50 years of name calling on the left, and 4 years of actual opposition from President Trump totally by himself causing the socialist wing of politics melting down and promising to continue to make :LISTS” to retaliate to ANY THAT DO NOT COMPLY while out of their other mouth asking to “CUM BA YA” just does not compute. These SOCIALISTS do NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ASK FOR! I suggest re-reading 1984, Animal Farm and THE BRAVE NEW WORLD that they want to BUILD!!!! GOD HELP US IF THIS FRAUD ISN’T STOPPED!!!!
AMEN to THAT!
what the American people I’ve talk to want to know the truth about the election, it seem there is doubt of honest being told.
INTERESTING (in a BULLSH*T way) how this is not SHAREABLE to Facebook!
I agree, cant share anything that is truth. . I feel bad for the liberal left. They r uniformed (by choice). They dont know what they voted for. The US of China. FB has controlled this much longer than we realize.
All leaving , go to parler and newsmax instead of fox, except for tuck and sean and laura. Thats the new deal my friend. Say goodbye to fb.
TOO LITTLE TOO LATE, BARR! WHERE WERE YOU WHEN YOU FIRST NOTICED CORRUPTION?? YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO THIS PRESIDENT. WE BELIEVED IN YOU, BUT YOU NOW SHOW YOUR TRUE COLORS…YOU DON’T WANT CONTROVERSY, EVEN THOUGH IT IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE.
WELL, I HOPE, IN THE END, IF TRUMP LOSES, I KNOW EVERY DEM WILL TOTALLY REGRET WHAT THEY STUPIDLY ASKED FOR!!! THE GOV’T RULES YOUR LIFE; THERE IS NO LONGER ANY FREEDOM TO HAVE AN OPINION BECAUSE IF IT DISAGREES WITH DEM’S THOUGHTS, YOU ARE NOW A PERSONA-NON-GRATA!!
IF THAT HAPPENS, WE ARE LEAVING THIS COUNTRY…AND GUESS WHAT??? WE ARE LEAVING DUE TO THE SAME REASONS THAT US CITIZENS FOUGHT AGAINST THE BRITISH!! IT’S THE CIVIL WAR ALL OVER AGAIN!
THE DEMS ONLY WANT 1984 IN ITS EXTREME!!
You are so right. Barr let us know and so did Durham. All of the investigations they have done are now moot, and we the taxpayer not only paid for the Democrats crap we also paid for our own crap from people that we thought were going to get justice. My heart aches for America and the young people that have been brainwashed from Kindergarten and will not pay the price in their future.
I think this investigation is appropriate given the way things were run this election. The late dump that gave Biden all of those votes seems rather suspicious to me as well as the people that I have talked to during and since the voting.
I would not trust that Biden is the winner if there is not some kind of investigation and re-count.
The only recourse Americans have is for the Department of Justice to verify that an honest election has occurred. Many Americans have doubts about the fairness of this election. These states that took extra time to gather and count the ballots need to hold new elections (vote in person only) and the whole process needs to be strictly monitored. We cannot rely on these states to do the right thing.
I agree with you. The entire voting process has to be redone and people that are not incapacitated need to vote in person with proper identification. Their word is not good enough for us that are fair and just.
Most all of the Trump supporters seem to think there is some unusual discrepencies in the last election process.
From mail in voting to dead people voting.My wifes cousin a registered repubican was cha;;enged.They said
that he couldn’t vote because he was deceased.After presenting himself and a drivers liscence.they gave him a
provisional ballot.THE FAKE MEDIA doesn’t want to have things investigated if its not in their favor.( Imagine
that)I am so glad that our President exposed the Fake MEDIA once and forall.They have always had a distorted
view and pushing their own agenda on us,I remain grateful to Pres.Trump and am a supporter.
Tell Pres Trump Never Surrender as Commander and Chief We are appreciate of all he has done.Keep Fighting!
I have absolutely no confidence in Wray doing anything that will be against the democrats. He needs to be eliminated because he also hides the truth. As far as Barr goes, I really would like to know WHY the evidence that has been found involving the plots against President and members associated with him is now not being brought to light. Our tax money paid for all of this and we demand to know the results and we want to know why all of this will go away if crooked Biden is actually elected? The law is the law and once it is broken, who has the right to not do anything at all to the people that were involved in all of the hurt and humiliation that they have brought to our president, his cabinet members and to the American people that voted for him?
The left will continue to be evil & take Pres elect Biden off his meds he’ll be incompetent again that is sad his own & party have no respect of human life including Obama, pants of the house Hilary, in the freezer eating ice cream Pelosi, & the VP elect who can’t figure out her origin. Biden will go back into seclusion. Harris will become president & miracle Hillary will get her foot back in the door & then we will have 3 of the most evil women in charge of this country! Top place the 🍒 on top you-tube the movie Son of God watch Satan looks identical to Obama now Christian or not when you see that face it is one that nightmares are made of. It was made & produce by Roma Downey & her husband of Touched by an Angel. The movie crew stated a scene of Satan was filmed there was 40 snakes in the area. Who are the 40 snakes in the clutches of Clinton, Pelosi, & now Harris thinks she’s got it made but she just bought the 3rd ticket to HELL! Obama & his wife are the conductors! They are not playing with their lives they are playing with their SOULS!
What time zone is being use ie is now 12:16 PM ET?
I tell you this…
It has become an incredibly high bar that will have to be hurdled to restore MY trust in both the election process and the various branches/agencies that represent the United States Government.
Once you dismiss all the rhetoric and look objectively at what seems to align with basic common sense and general decency… sadly there is nothing much left to list.
We (All of us) have been fed a constant diet of pure, unadulterated falsehoods for so many years… even the most suspicious of us have been de-sensitized to a point I never imagined I would see in our lifetime.
When we were told that our democracy could not survive long after our bicentennial… it this state of affairs we are witnessing now that represents the advanced stages of this decline.
I will not give up my will to prevent this from happening but I fear that places me in the minority now.
God bless America… God please save America!
Have all seven states who have illegitimate voting or irregularities and many doubts re vote but this time everyone shows up with there Id’s! Another issue: Since 2016 11 states have passed laws to circumvent the electoral college voting system? Now only large counties in those states votes will count for the president and all smaller populated counties who vote their vote will never be counted again? The electoral college was created so everyone who votes could have a word in the presidential election! Pretty soon if this continues only large cities like Los Angeles, New York and large populated will elect the president and the rest of the country won’t matter!
People attacking Barr saying too little too late. He followed the law. He was not allowed to interfere in the election. It’s more than frustrating but there are reasons for our laws. If you don’t like them contact your representative to change them. It does way more good to do that. To many people just let them do whatever. I’m thrilled Barr stepped in!
I am, of course, not an attorney, however, the number of signed affidavits by those who witnessed or were to participate in the election process, but were not allowed to perform their part of the election process, I would hope, will play a very large part of the DOJ decision concerning corruption in our elections.
Thank you Mr. Barr for your consistent calm deliberation and dedication to the essentials of justice and fairness and of course, the US Constitution.
Most of us who supported and voted for President Trump are very much aware of just how corrupt this election process was in 2020. Recounts can’t replace the Trump ballots that are rotting in landfills or burned to ashes. We no longer trust the Media to be truthful and non political and this is one of the reasons, if not the main reason, for President Trumps ascension. We didn’t always agree with him and didn’t always like what he said but we always knew he would stand by his word. Americans haven’t had that kind of honesty since Lincoln…and we know it. We also know now that Trumps’ love of America isn’t for money or power. He had that. His love is for this country and for us, his fellow Americans and we love him back.
Biden can’t even come close to filling President Trumps’ shoes. He knows it. As for his screeching, yowling, rioting, murdering supporters…I firmly believe that Hell has a special place for them. Perhaps for all of you. Children have been murdered in your quest for power. Families destroyed. America burns. I hope God damns every last one of you to Hell.
