Giving 66-year-old Green Party candidate Dr. Jill Stein her comeuppance today, U.S. District Court Judge Paul Diamond ruled to stop recounts in Pennsylvania. Only Friday, Dec. 9, Michigan’s Supreme Court denied Stein’s appeal to continue as wasteful recounts, declaring Green Party candidate had no material interest in requesting a recount since she polled under one percent with zero chance of prevailing. But today’s 31-page ruling by Diamond summed up Stein’s outrageous basis for recounts: To insure the integrity of the voting system. Stein and her attorneys presented not a shred of evidence to prove hacking or tampering had gone on in the 2016. Stein presented the most vague excuse for ordering recounts of Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, states won by President-elect Donald Trump by substantial margins. Wisconsin officials expect to complete the recount today with no real change.
Democratic nominee former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton told voters Oct. 19 at the last presidential debate in Las Vegas that Trump’s refusal to answer a hypothetical question about conceding the election proved he was a threat to U.S. democracy. Yet after Trump won Nov. 8, it was Hillary that backed Stein’s feeble efforts to recount the vote in key swing states. Now Stein got what she deserved from the beginning, a federal judge slapping down her demand for recounts. “Most importantly, there is not credible evidence that any ‘hack’ occurred, and compelling evidence that Pennsylvania’s voting system was not in any way compromised,” Diamond wrote in a 31-page ruling. Despite taking Stein’s cash and starting recounts, Stein made the same feckless argument in Wisconsin. Stein finds herself with egg on her face demanding recounts without justification.
Hillary’s disgruntled backers sought the recounts to try to throw a monkey wrench into the Dec. 19 Electoral College deadline to certify the 2016 vote. Ending recounts clears the way for the Electoral College to certify the vote on schedule. Taking up to $10 million in voters’ cash, Stein has a lot of explaining to do what she plans to do with money. With the recounts ended, Stein’s post-election publicity stunt won her far more attention than when she ran as the Green Party candidate. Stein received covert backing from Hillary campaign donors to raise cash to block Trump’s march to the Electoral College certification. Green Party lawyers, without any proof, insisted voting systems in key swing states could have been hacked, citing reports about Russian interference in the 2016 election. Today’s mainstream press continues play up Russian interference in the 2016 election.
Backing Stein’s efforts to recount votes in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, Hillary wants Obama to disclose everything the White House knows about alleged Russian hacking. WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said the source of his email leaks was not Russia, despite reports by the CIA that they had high certainty that Russia was behind the hacks. Proving that the Hillary campaign is behind Stein’s requests for recounts, it demanded President Barack Obama release all that’s know about Russian interference in the 2016 election. “The administration owes it to the American people to explain what it knows regarding the extent and manner of Russian interference and this be done as soon as possible,” said Hillary Campaign Chairman John D. Podesta. Podesta implies that Trump officials with Russian hacking sought to sabotage Hillary’s presidential campaign.
Podesta’s statements don’t prove any Russian-Trump collusion in the 2016 election. What Podesta’s remarks show is that he’s heavily involved in Stein’s recount efforts and any other way to discredit Trump’s win. ‘The U.S. intelligence community has determined that Russia interfered in U.S. elections,” said former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.). What Pelosi doesn’t say is that there’s no evidence of vote tampering claimed by Stein to request recounts. Exposing embarrassing emails proving collusion with the Hillary campaign at the Democratic National Committee or former CNN pundit and Democratic operative Donna Brazile supplying questions before CNN Oct. 9 town hall debate didn’t help Hillary’s chances. But instead of taking responsibility for dirty tricks, the Hillary campaign blames the Russians, now implying that the Trump campaign set the whole thing up.
Last gasp attempts by the Hillary campaign and mainstream press to sabotage the Dec. 19 Electoral College certification have become obvious. While there’s zero credibility to the Trump campaign colluding with the Russians, there’s 100% certainty that the Hillary campaign colluded with mainstream press to upend Trump. Voters wised up to the devious collusion before Nov. 8, handing Trump an historic win. “There must be no equivocation or ignoring the seriousness of the intelligence community’s conclusion about Russian actions,” said Pelosi, blowing more smoke about the Trump campaign directing Russian hacking. Pelosi’s comments mirror those of Stein’s, spreading only wild conjecture to discredit the 2016 vote. Judge Diamond set the record straight, calling Stein’s claims “bordering on the irrational.” Podesta and Pelosi’s remarks are deliberate attempts to disenfranchise 2016 voters.
