Even as the president’s legal team continues to dispute election results in battleground states with large numbers of questionable mail-in ballots and election anomalies, Establishment Washington is pushing Donald Trump out the door. What it failed to accomplish through four years of Deep State sabotage and bipartisan efforts at thwarting the MAGA agenda, the D.C. Club may have finally succeeded through good old-fashioned vote fraud. The District of Corruption is salivating over the possibility of freeing itself from a foe who has singlehandedly damaged the Swamp forever.
No victory could be more pyrrhic.
Smartmatic voting systems have been smeared. We re going to fight the disinformation.
All accusations questioning the integrity of our system have been debunked, as have fake claims of vote manipulation. We may sue for defamation.

Disinformation is an oft-used tactic to cast doubt on facts, basic truths, and scientific evidence. Though not a new tactic, disinformation has been turbo-charged by the internet and social media. Recent disinformation campaigns have attempted to impugn the integrity of voting officials and have attacked companies, including my own, with made-up claims of vote manipulation. Such claims have been soundly debunked by fact checkers and election experts.
Kelly Loeffler appears to have a habit of taking pictures with extremists, propagandists and white supremacists. Earlier this week, Loeffler faced criticism for taking a picture with a noted neo-Nazi named
Chester Doles. The former Ku Klux Klansman posted a photo of himself and the Senator on December 11 after meeting her at a campaign event in December. Immediately after the photo circulated through social media, Loeffler s Georgia spokesperson
Stephen Lawson issued a statement.
“[Kelly Loeffler] had no idea who [Doles] was and if she had she would have kicked him out immediately because we condemn in the most vociferous terms everything that he stands for, Lawson stated.

This is false; the Supreme Court of Nevada examined the claims and denied the request to overturn election results based on a lack of evidence of fraud.
âNevada: 42,000 voted twice 23,000 out of state residents 44,000 from commercial addresses.. 1,500 dead people! TOTAL margin of victory? 33,000,â a December 4, 2020 Facebook post reads.
