The Trump campaign has requested an emergency injunction in a federal lawsuit aimed at preventing the State of Michigan from certifying the results of last week's election until election officials can certify that only legally cast, on time, and legally observed ballots are included in the count. The campaign is alleging several types of fraud, misconduct, and invalidated ballots based on a number of reasons - including 'malfunctioning' vote counting machines made by Dominion Voting Systems.

The Tuesday night filing in the US District Court for the Western District of Michigan alleges, among other things, that officials prevented GOP challengers from observing the count, scanned "batches of the same ballots multiple times," illegally accepted and pre-dated late ballots, including from unmonitored drop boxes, and that election workers illegally duplicated ballots," according to a statement from the campaign. The lawsuit requests that the court toss all ballots not observed by a GOP election challenger who has been "allowed to meaningfully observe the process and the handling and counting of the ballot."

Best of the Web: 'I was in Philadelphia watching fraud happen. Here's how it went down'

At issue was President Trump's request for an order changing the way Pennsylvania absentee and mail-in ballots are being reviewed at the Philadelphia Convention Center.

Legacy media are lying when they claim that all of President Trump's allegations of voter fraud are baseless. I know, because I argued a case on the president's behalf in federal court in Philadelphia.

At issue was President Trump's request for an order changing the way Pennsylvania absentee and mail-in ballots are being reviewed at the Philadelphia Convention Center. CNN and others claim he "lost." That's false: he won. As I made that argument on behalf of the president's campaign, I can tell you what really happened.

Leader of church in England and Wales refusing to resign despite damning IICSA report

Pope Francis asked Cardinal Vincent Nichols, the leader of the Catholic church in England and Wales, to stay in his post, despite a damning report that criticised his leadership and concluded that the church repeatedly prioritised its reputation over the welfare of child sex abuse victims.

In its final review of the church, the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse (IICSA) said the Vatican's failure to cooperate with the investigation "passes understanding".

The 162-page report said "the church's neglect of the physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing of children and young people in favour of protecting its reputation was in conflict with its mission of love and care for the innocent and vulnerable."

Of Nichols, it stated: "There was no acknowledgment of any personal responsibility to lead or influence change. Nor did he demonstrate compassion towards victims in the recent cases which we examined."

Comment: Yes, psychopaths hold positions of power in religious institutions as well:

Lockdowns cost lives - we need a different strategy to fight Covid-19

On Monday, we got the first glimmer of hope about a possible Covid vaccine. But as the Prime Minister cautioned, there is a long way to go before we know whether it is safe and how effective it is, let alone roll it out to the population. So we've got to start bringing some balance to the debate about how we live with the virus.

Lockdowns and restrictions cost lives, whether in undiagnosed cancer treatments, deteriorating mental health and missed A&E appointments - not to mention the impact they have on young people's education, job prospects and our soaring debts.

Last week, I voted against my party for only the second time in fifteen years. The country is badly in need of a different and enduring strategy for living with the virus that doesn't require us to keep living under a series of damaging lockdowns and seemingly arbitrary restrictions.

That's why my colleagues and I, representing a diverse range of intakes and opinions from across the party, have launched the Covid Recovery Group, underpinned by "Three Guiding Principles" for how we move forward.

UK's 14-day quarantine policy is 'fundamentally flawed', groundbreaking report finds

The 14-day quarantine introduced by the Government is the least effective of all strategies to prevent the spread of Covid into the community, a groundbreaking study has found.

The research showed the longer the quarantine, the higher the rates of people not complying and so the greater the risk of an infected person spreading the virus into the community, according to the research by Oxera and Edge Health, scientists who have worked for the NHS and Government.

The study is the first to take into account the impact of likely non-compliance depending on when people in quarantine take a Covid test to escape self-isolation.

It found the most effective strategy for preventing further transmission of coronavirus was testing arrivals three days into quarantine and freeing them from it if the results were negative.

Suicides in Japan rise as economic impact of COVID-19 hits home

The number of suicides in Japan rose in October for the fourth month in a row to the highest level in more than five years, data showed on Tuesday (Nov 10), a trend activists have blamed on the economic impact of the coronavirus, on women in particular.

According to preliminary police data, the total number of suicides for October was 2,153, an increase of more than 300 from the previous month and the highest monthly tally since May 2015.

Of October's cases, 851 were women, a rise of 82.6 per cent over the same month in 2019. The number of suicides by men rose 21.3 per cent.

Cases of suicide had been falling steadily until July but then the economic impact of the novel coronavirus outbreak hit home and the numbers started rising, activists say.

Comment: Again we are reminded of the horrible knock-on effects of unnecessary and economically devastating lockdowns - and the great toll these policies have taken on the lives of many millions of people.

European Council President Charles Michel gives a news briefing at the end of a virtual conference with EU leaders about EU government's measures against the coronavirus disease (COVID19) crisis, in Brussels, Belgium, October 29, 2020.
The European Union should quickly set up a new body to oversee the training of imams and make sure their messages to Muslim followers do not contribute to spreading an "ideology of hatred", a top European Union official said on Monday.

Charles Michel's remarks come a day before he will attend a video conference on the "European response to terrorism" organised by French President Emmanuel Macron.

MAGA was more mainstream than most Americans realized, and its electoral rejection will prove to be a historic mistake

© Reuters/Nick OxfordMAGA - One giant step at a time!
Americans may come to view Donald Trump's Make America Great Again movement not as an embodiment of white supremacy, but rather a vehicle of economic opportunity that cut across racial, ethnic and gender lines.

Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign slogan, Make America Great Again, or MAGA, has been seized upon by Americans from all political walks of life, who either view it as a dog whistle for white supremacists, or a rallying cry for a revolution in US domestic political affairs that seeks to create economic opportunity for all Americans, regardless of race, gender or creed.

Much has been written about the alleged racial connotations of MAGA. But history will almost certainly demonstrate that the MAGA movement was more revolutionary than racist, and its rejection at the polls in 2020 a mistake of historical proportions which locked the American people back into the failed policies of the past.


Comment: This perception of a Biden win is being turned on its ear as ongoing investigations show voter fraud is rampant.


The fact is, the MAGA movement, as promulgated by Donald Trump, is a repudiation of decades of two-party political combat that had devastated both the heartland of the US and its urban centers, leaving millions of Americans from all walks of life feeling disenfranchised.

Comment: As of this date: Trump has not lost. Biden has not won. Other than this MEGA error, what the author illustrates is Trump's ability to 'inspire' and 'deliver' hope.

Climate 'Experts' demand tax-on-meat to fight...global warming

The UK Health Alliance on Climate Change (UKHACC) urges the UK government to impose a climate tax on food producers by 2025 - unless private industry takes voluntary measures to limit their carbon emissions.

In the report published on Nov. 4, titled "All-Consuming: Building A Healthier Food System For People And Planet," UKHACC outlines that the climate crisis cannot be resolved without reducing food that causes high emissions, such as red meat and dairy products.

"In particular, red meat consumption will need to be cut by half if the food system is to stay within sustainable environmental limits," UKHACC wrote in the report.
UKHACC ad
Adding that, "changing our diets in this way will not only help to mitigate climate change but will also improve our health: there is also clear evidence that is replacing animal protein with plant-based protein results in lower rates of stroke, heart disease, diabetes, and overall death rates."

Comment: IDIOTS! The carbon-oxygen cycle, and how nature utilizes one resource to produce another, negates the greenhouse hoax. Upending the balance of nature does not make it more sustainable. It makes it less. This proposed maneuver is far more diabolical than managing the fart control of human carnivores. We should be asking: Cui bono?

Megyn Kelly nukes Biden's claim that the nation is now 'united' and 'healed'

Now that the media has declared Joe Biden the winner (while the counting is still continuing), we are suddenly hearing from them and Democrats how the nation must come together and accept Biden, that we should not be questioning the election.

Democrats literally paid for foreign disinformation and spread the Russia collusion hoax to undermine Donald Trump, which was then weaponized through the media and the FBI to undermine his presidency. These are the people who literally rioted from day one of his presidency, refusing to accept the duly-elected president. These are the media folks who twisted and lied about everything Trump did to damage his presidency and harm him in the eyes of the American public. These are the social media folks who interfered in a major Biden scandal in the final weeks before the election and prevented the American public from getting the full truth. These are the media who even now are labeling and flagging anything questioning this election now.

Now, after all that, and after all that has gone on in this election, they want us just to "come together," accept Biden and the president he's playing the stalking horse for, Kamala Harris. Sorry, but no. They want us to stand down while they flout every norm and every rule, and act as though it's normal. The counting and the legal challenges go on. The uncovering of all the funny business continues.

Biden has declared victory, despite the counting still going on. Remember when Twitter said they would shut down a candidate trying to claim victory before it was official? They're not stopping the media nor Biden.

Comment: Celebs such as Katy Perry and CNN's Jake Tapper...magnanimously offered their personal offensive advice to record posts for 'future reference' along with a snide jab from AOC:
The Democratic power play is not just 'divide and conquer'. It is divide and destroy.
