The FBI is investigating allegations of election fraud in Detroit after a city worker stepped forward and claimed election workers were asked to backdate ballots that had come in after the election deadline had passed, multiple officials said.

A senior law enforcement official in Washington confirmed that an investigation was opened after the whistleblower's concerns were forwarded from the Michigan Republican Party. "The FBI is investigating," the official said.

GOP officials in Michigan said the whistleblower was identified and assisted by Phill Kline, the head of the Thomas More Society's Amistad Project, which has been litigating voting disputes and irregularities across the country for months. Kline declined comment.

But Michigan GOP chairwoman Laura Cox confirmed Friday afternoon the here party referred a whistleblower to the FBI and U.S. attorney in Detroit.
"The MIGOP has referred a whistleblower case to the U.S. Attorney in which a city of Detroit employee was directed to change the date of receipt, in the official election record on ballots which had been received after the deadline. This directive allegedly came from both City and State employees who were working at the TCF center. These allegations are highlighted by the city of Detroit's attempt to block Republican poll challengers from supervising this process."
This is a developing story.

Texas state officials announced late on Friday afternoon that they have charged a social worker with 134 felony counts of election fraud and other related charges. The state said in a statement:
"Attorney General Ken Paxton today announced that his Election Fraud Unit assisted the Limestone County Sheriff and District Attorney in charging Kelly Reagan Brunner, a social worker in the Mexia State Supported Living Center (SSLC), with 134 felony counts of purportedly acting as an agent and of election fraud.

"State Supported Living Centers serve people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Brunner submitted voter registration applications for 67 residents without their signature or effective consent, while purporting to act as their agent.

"Under Texas law, only a parent, spouse or child who is a qualified voter of the county may act as an agent in registering a person to vote, after being appointed to do so by that person.

"None of the SSLC patients gave effective consent to be registered, and a number of them have been declared totally mentally incapacitated by a court, thereby making them ineligible to vote in Texas."
The statement added that if she is convicted, Brunner faces up to 10 years in prison for these offenses.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has announced changes to its Islamic personal laws, now allowing unmarried couples to cohabitate, loosening alcohol restrictions and imposing harsher punishments for "honor killings."

The Associated Press and Reuters reported on the changes Saturday, with the UAE state-run news agency WAM saying that the updates are intended to improve the country's economic and social standing and "consolidate the UAE's principles of tolerance." The UAE government outlined the changes in greater detail in state-linked newspaper The National, which noted that the altered laws would take effect immediately, according to the AP.

According to Reuters, thousands of women and girls die each year across the Middle East and South Asia in "honor killings," resulting from family members perceiving a damage to a woman's honor for actions such as eloping or mingling with men.

WAM also announced the cancellation of UAE legal clauses that had allowed judges to hand out relaxed sentences for "honor crimes." Now, the actions will be addressed in courts as any other murder case would.

Comparison: Polls were more wrong in 2020 than in 2016

One of the greatest lessons of 2016 is that polling can suffer from major flaws, especially when measuring support for and against an outsider candidate like President Donald Trump. Polls generally have had a good track record of predicting the outcomes of elections, but anyone who doubts them today has good reason to do so.

When it came to the national polls they did come close to estimating the popular vote in 2016, but state polls is where things broke down. State polls were off by roughly five percentage points in 2016. Needless to say, with our electoral colleges system the national polling is practically irrelevant, while the state polls, particularly in key swing states, are the most important.

GoFundMe takes down conservative fundraiser's page for election misinformation

GoFundMe took down a conservative operative's fundraising page on Friday, asserting that it was spreading misinformation about the 2020 election.

Matt Braynard, who was an early staffer on the data team for the 2016 Trump campaign, set up the page to finance an investigation into voter fraud. He claimed on Twitter that he had data on absentee ballots and early voters in a number of key swing states and wanted to run them against Social Security and change-of-address databases to determine illegitimate votes.

Comparing the databases would require thousands of dollars, he claimed in a series of tweets on Thursday. He turned to GoFundMe after being unable to get support from the Republican Party or President Donald Trump's reelection campaign. But GoFundMe removed the page the following day, saying that it violated the site's terms of service and that it "attempts to spread misleading information about the election and has been removed from the platform."

Comment: Politico is a leftist propaganda site. As reports continue to surface, they indicate voter fraud is rampant in this election and the behind-the-scenes collusion is massive.

Lincoln Project founder Steve Schmidt said Friday on MSNBC's Deadline that Fox News host Tucker Carlson was the frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.

Anchor Brian Williams said, "When I heard Marco Rubio the day before election day kind of saluting the folks, the Trump caravan that almost ran the Biden bus off the road, you know, you hear something like that from someone who is supposed to be a mainstream Republican Senator, you realize that Trumpism, and that's part of what the Lincoln Project was formed to defeat, Trumpism is a powerful thing. It may be a loser politically, but do you anticipate it to survive Donald Trump?"

Comment: Schmidt is, for whatever reason, amplifying rumors. Tucker might some day take to the idea, but currently he has no interest in it.

Wives of UK's 'spycops' seek justice for lives shattered by operations

From 1968 - 2007, at least 30 women were deceived into long-term relationships by undercover officers. They have had their apology, but what of the wives back in the 'real world' - where is the contrition for them?

The spouses of police officers who engaged in romantic relationships while undercover are finally being heard.

Using not only fake names but entirely fabricated personas, their husbands infiltrated political campaign groups for years at a time, posing as anti-war, anti-racist, environmentalist, and human rights campaigners, among many other guises. In some extreme instances, they even proposed marriage and fathered children with the women they spied on.

Top brass at Britain's elite security policing unit, Special Branch, were all too aware of the risk of operatives 'going native' while embedded in activist organisations, at least one officer having refused to return from the field in the past. To avoid a repeat fiasco, strict policies of only using career officers whose loyalty to the force was beyond doubt, and who were married, was implemented, to ensure spies had "something in the real world to come back to."

Comment: These are the fruits of the British 'security' services. And it would appear that the situation is only going to get worse: UK gives legal powers to various agencies to plan and commit CRIME, court rules

Thousands protest against the lockdown in Leipzig, Germany, protests erupt in Thessaloniki, Greece

Thousands protest the lockdown in Leipzig, Germany, Saturday 7th November
Thousands of people have taken to the streets of the German city of Leipzig on Saturday to protest against the current coronavirus lockdown measures in Germany.

Several squares in Leipzig were filled with demonstrators demanding the immediate lifting of Germany's current lockdown measures, which they say violate fundamental rights, AFP reports. Restaurants, bars, cafes and also all museums, theatres and sports halls have had to close their doors in Germany since Monday, in a move that has faced strong criticism.

According to the organization, 20,000 demonstrators are expected to attend, but official figures are not known at this time. Police have been on the scene in an attempt to enforce measures, with reports coming in that the majority of people are not wearing a mouth mask or social distancing.


Comment: Because they can see that the coronavirus is harmless to the vast majority.


Comment: RT reports on the protest in Thessaloniki:
Greek police clash with anti-lockdown protesters just before stay-at-home order comes into force

An anti-lockdown rally in Greece's Thessaloniki turned violent as protesters pelted riot police with projectiles, injuring two officers. The police made 11 arrests amid the clashes.

Several hundred protesters showed up in the center of the Greek city on Friday evening to take part in a protest against Covid-19 restrictions imposed by the government.




Tensions escalated into clashes with the police, who used tear gas and flash bangs against a group of violent protesters, who were throwing stones and paint bombs at the officers. The police reported arresting 11 demonstrators and said two officers received minor injuries amid the clashes.


Note that the police are using weapons that inflict injuries.


As of Friday, Greece had 52,254 identified Covid-19 cases, with 715 people reported dead due to the infection. The government imposed a second national lockdown earlier this week, with strict restrictions on non-essential movement coming into force from Saturday.
Protests are erupting throughout Europe and, as more people come to realise that their livelihoods are being destroyed because of government lies, the protests will likely only become larger and more frequent; and, in turn, it's likely the security apparatus the state is using to enforce these brutal restrictions will be used to clamp down even further: Thousands protest nationwide lockdown in Liverpool, Manchester & London, police increase armed patrols claiming 'increased terrorist threat'

Twitter and Facebook smack down all questioning of US election integrity. What about the 4 years of Russiagate?

Social media is clamping down on posts questioning US election results' "integrity," despite troubling anomalies. Yet questioning election integrity defined the establishment narrative for four years of relentless Russiagating.

Twitter, Facebook and YouTube's crackdown on speculation about voter fraud, "election meddling," and other "information intended to undermine public confidence in an election or other civic process" (as Twitter put it) represents a stunning about-face from the way they fostered - even bolstered - speculation about alleged Russian interference in the 2016 vote.

In what is perhaps the ultimate irony, the current level of election meddling by the social media establishment - which outstrips anything the troll farm Internet Research Agency pulled off in 2016 by several orders of magnitude - would be impossible without the hysteria ginned up on these platforms by journalists casting doubt over the integrity of that year's election. If not for four years of Russiagate, social media platforms would never have gotten away with choking off the flow of information about 2020's election on the level they are.

ANTI-LOCKDOWN and Million Mask protesters have clashed with cops during demonstrations on the street against the new coronavirus lockdown.

Hundreds of furious protesters gathered in central London and began marching up the Strand towards Trafalgar Square at around 6pm on Thursday.

Many were arrested and had to be forcibly dragged off the street in dramatic scenes.

Yesterday marked the first day of a new nationwide lockdown in England set to remain in place for at least four weeks.

Comment: RT provides further reporting on the protests that have erupted throughout the UK against the tyrannical lockdown measures:

The Million Mask March takes place on November 5 when Guy Fawkes Night is celebrated in the UK. The rally is aimed at decrying global corporations, government corruption, police brutality and systemic racism, but this year it was also joined by those protesting the Covid-19 lockdown.

Liverpool protesters clash with police and Manchester students tear down 'prison-like' fencing

Liverpool was awash with protesters on Thursday night as local residents came together to protest against the government's Covid-19 restrictions.

The police responded to reports of huge crowds gathering at St George's Hall in the city center at around 6.30pm. The demonstrators were dispersed but gathered again later in the evening at the Pier Head.

Three arrests were made and 13 people were fined for their part in the disturbance. Videos also show pepper spray being deployed to neutralizetroublemakers at the demonstration.

One protestor compared the lockdown to the panic created by the millennium bug, which turned out to be unjustified.

"I'm worried about my kids. But what it is, is right, is I got onto this sort of thing, remember the year 2000, 'millennium bug,' when they scared the life out of the world for six months? This [is] the same thing. Fear is a great controller. So basically, we're being controlled using fear," he told Ruptly, RT's video agency.


Former Supreme Court judge Lord Jonathan Sumption is in agreement.


Liverpool was the first city in England to be hit with the highest regional coronavirus restrictions on October 14 but is now subjected to the even stricter measures of the national lockdown until December 2.

Meanwhile, university students in Manchester marched around their Fallowfield campus in protest against the restrictions placed upon their lives, including the erection of a perimeter fence around their halls as a "security measure" to "help avoid the mixing of households."

In other footage published by Ruptly, students can be seen cheering as the fencing was torn down.

"There is fencing around the whole outside, we feel like it's completely unnecessary. It makes it feel like we're in a prison," one of the students told the BBC. The university subsequently apologized for putting up the fence and said it would be removed on Friday.

Many students in Manchester and across the country have been isolating for weeks and have not received face-to-face tutoring, despite paying £9,000 a year for their university education.

Both cities, Liverpool and Manchester, have been deemed epicenters of the second wave of the coronavirus in the UK and faced local restrictions before the national lockdown commenced on Thursday.

On Friday, Liverpool will become the first city in the country to take part in a mass Covid-19 testing trial. Around 2,000 British military personnel are being drafted in to increase capacity at test sites.


This appears to a worrying precedent and there are clues as to what the army could be used for next: UK's NHS to enlist ARMY to vaccinate ENTIRE population with coronavirus vaccine, will do a 'dry run' with flu vaccine


The pilot scheme will offer everyone living and working in Liverpool the opportunity to have repeat coronavirus tests over the two-week trial period. It comes amid fears that the new technology, which provides rapid results within 20 minutes, was missing up to half of Covid-19 infections.
Rather coincidentally, alongside increased police funding and powers, and a rushing through of new lockdown restrictions through parliament, the UK has just raised it's 'terrorist threat' levels:
"You can expect to see an increase in armed police patrols across London over the next few days," the police said on Twitter. It's a "precautionary measure" due to the raised terrorist threat level, they added, while urging the public to "stay alert and report anything suspicious to police."


British authorities raised the terrorist threat level from 'substantial' to 'severe' on Tuesday. It's the second highest level, meaning that an attack is believed to be highly likely. The move was made after Austria and France witnessed deadly attacks in recent weeks.

Armed officers will be patrolling mostly empty streets in London as England went into lockdown on Thursday in an attempt to stem the sharp rise in coronavirus cases. Until December 2, residents are forbidden to leave their homes except for essential reasons like work, education, or receiving medical assistance.

This Monday, a man who previously tried to join Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS), went on a rampage in Vienna, killing four people with an automatic rifle before being shot dead by police. The shocking events in the Austrian capital followed an attack on a church in Nice, France in which three people were killed, and the beheading of school teacher Samuel Paty near Paris in mid-October.

The attack on Paty is believed to be an act of revenge, as he showed his students cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed during a class on freedom of speech. President Emmanuel Macron enraged Muslims around the world with his endorsement of caricatures of Mohammed, while the country's security forces have cracked down on organizations suspected of promoting radical Islam.
