What's he hiding? Georgia's Secretary of State Raffensperger petitions court - prefers state not be forced to hand over ballots for audit

Brad Raffensperger
Georgia's corrupt Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger sent a request to the courts yesterday requesting that ballot images taken from the voting machines in Georgia be the only source of evidence to be used in an upcoming audit in Fulton County Georgia. Raffensperger doesn't want the paper ballots reviewed.

Per a report from creative destruction media from yesterday:
GA Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger seems like he has a secret. The man in charge of ensuring fair elections in the Peach State really doesn't want anyone looking at the actual ballots from the Nov 3rd U.S. general election.

There is an old proverb — those with nothing to hide don't try to hide things.

Fair election activists from VoterGA.org have worked hard and succeeded in gaining access to ballots from Fulton County, GA for a forensic audit. A judge will rule on the procedures later this month.

This is scaring the pants off those who enabled the massive election fraud in November's general election and the GA Senate run-off in January.

We have seen the same obstruction of justice in Maricopa County, AZ and other swing-states which were hit by fraud.

The GA Secretary of State's office filed an amicus brief yesterday in support of corrupt Fulton County election officials.

German health minister promises freedom to travel to vaccinated, but doesn't say when it will happen

Freedoms reserved for Germans with a recent negative Covid-19 test will be also offered to those who are fully vaccinated, the country's health minister has promised, teasing an upcoming lifting of the much-loathed lockdown.

Vaccinated Germans will be free to travel, shop, or have their hair done as if they were certified corona-free by a test, Health Minister Jens Spahn has promised in an interview. That is, if and when such privileges become available.

The policy is based on a fresh report by the Robert Koch Institute (RKI), Germany's prime scientific authority on infectious diseases, which said people who received their second booster shot at least 15 days ago pose a smaller risk of infecting others than those with a recent negative Covid-19 test.

Comment: It seems not enough people have learned from history, and it appears that much of the planet may be doomed to repeat it:

Kansas lawmakers revoke Democratic governor's mask mandate

Gov. Laura Kelly
Gov. Laura Kelly
Kansas lawmakers voted to rescind Gov. Laura Kelly's mask mandate within hours of the governor issuing the executive order.

"Public health mandates should be short-term, data-driven, and reserved only for pressing emergency situations. They should not be used to dictate Kansans' daily lives year after year," Speaker of the Kansas House Ron Ryckman and Kansas Senate Majority Leader Dan Hawkins said in a statement on the decision. "If data is the real driver behind the Governor's approach, then let's rely on the numbers."

The Kansas Legislative Coordinating Council met Thursday to review 13 executive orders issued by the governor, and lawmakers revoked the order in a 5-2 vote. The vote repealed the statewide mandate, but cities and localities are free to institute their own orders.

Comment: It's a hopeful sign that, despite governments' insidious attempts to 'guide' people's thinking through 'messaging', so many people are still able to see reality as it is:

Biden, reversing Trump policy, is quietly ramping up Palestinian aid

The Biden administration is quietly ramping up its financial assistance to Palestinians, in the latest reversal of former President Donald Trump's foreign policy.

The State Department, along with the US Agency for International Development, notified Congress of their intent to deliver nearly $75 million in aid to the region just one day after announcing a $15 million commitment publicly to vulnerable Palestinian groups.

The State Department declined to say whether the $15 million was included in the $75 million mentioned to Congress, or if the two were separate payments. The funds do not require further Congressional approval, as they were largely appropriated in the 2020 fiscal year budget.

They weren't spent prior to President Biden taking office, however, because of the Trump administration policy blocking nearly all aid to Palestinians. Then-President Trump severed ties with the Palestinian Authority in August 2018, amid heightened tensions over the then-commander-in-chief's decision to move the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. The decision to block aid resulted in the Palestinians losing out on over $200 million.

Comment: Blinken offers up 'reversals of fortune' affecting both Palestinians and Israelis:
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken called Friday on Israel to ensure "equal" treatment of the Palestinians as the new US administration cautiously steps up efforts for a two-state solution.

In a telephone call with Foreign Minister Gabi Ashkenazi, Blinken "emphasized the administration's belief that Israelis and Palestinians should enjoy equal measures of freedom, security, prosperity and democracy," State Department spokesman Ned Price said.

Blinken also committed to Israel's security, the "strengthening all aspects of the US-Israel partnership" and voiced support for the Jewish state's agreements over the past year to normalize relations with four more Arab nations.

US President Joe Biden, while stressing his support for Israel, has also signaled he will back away from the unwavering support of the right-wing Netanyahu by his predecessor Donald Trump.

The administration has stepped up humanitarian aid to the Palestinians and in recent days made clear that it believes that Israel's control of the West Bank is "occupation."
"We believe when it comes to settlement activity that Israel should refrain from unilateral steps that exacerbate tensions and that undercut efforts to advance a negotiated two-state solution."
Blinken has nonetheless made clear that the administration will not roll back some of Trump's signature moves, including recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

Blinken's call with Ashkenazi came the same day the US revoked sanctions on top officials at the International Criminal Court that were imposed under the Trump administration. He said the economic sanctions imposed on ICC chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda and a top aide in 2019 "were inappropriate and ineffective," and were therefore lifted.

Last month, the administration said it "firmly" opposes the ICC's decision to open an investigation into alleged war crimes committed by Israel and the Palestinians in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem.
There was no mention of the ICC's decision to investigate US war crimes.

Biden said: 'Nobody' making under $400K per year would have their taxes raised. He misled.

President Biden announced Friday the tax increases that would result from his $2 trillion infrastructure plan would impact some taxpayers who earn $200,000, the New York Post reported.

Biden had prevously claimed his tax increase would not apply to any taxpayer who earns less than $400,000 and files individually. However, in mid-March White House press secretary Jen Psaki publicly acknowledged the $400,000 threshold for tax increases applies to "families" rather than individuals, according to the New York Post.

For example, if an American who earns $200,000 per year is married to someone who also makes that amount or more, and they file taxes jointly — not married and separate — then that "family" could see an increase in taxes under the Biden administration.

Comment: Is this change in policy a Biden administration 'bait and switch' or a 'make it up as they go'? Neither are acceptable given there seems to be no frugality on this administration's projected spending.

Joe Biden, Hunter's laptop and the media lapdogs

On a corner of my desk, there is a small pile of newspaper clips, notes and documents. They date back to last October and are part of the scandalous information contained on a laptop abandoned by Hunter Biden.

Normally I would have thrown the papers away or stored them by now. But I kept them handy because I knew the day would come when they would be needed again.

Friday was that day.

In a TV interview, Hunter effectively conceded for the first time the laptop was his, opening the door to a new round of scrutiny about his foreign business scams and influence peddling. This time, the door must stay open until America gets the truth.

Thanks to The Post's dogged work last fall, it was obvious the laptop was Hunter's. But because Democrats and their media mouthpieces tried to hide the truth, e-mails revealing suspicious conduct of the man who is now president have never been fully examined and explained.

Jordan's Queen Noor calls coup plot allegations 'wicked slander'

Queen Noor, widow of the late King Hussein of Jordan, said on Sunday that allegations by the authorities against her son, the former Crown Prince Hamzah bin Hussein, of an attempted coup amounted to "wicked slander".

Jordan's military has said that Prince Hamzah, King Abdullah's half-brother, had been told to halt actions used to target the country's "security and stability".

"Praying that truth and justice will prevail for all the innocent victims of this wicked slander," Noor Al-Hussein tweeted. "God bless and keep them safe."

The warning to Prince Hamzah was part of a broader, ongoing security investigation in which a former minister, a junior member of the royal family and unnamed others were detained. Prince Hamzah said in a video recording he was under house arrest and had been told to stay at home and not contact anyone. Speaking in English in the video, passed by his lawyer to the BBC, he said he was not part of any foreign conspiracy and denounced the ruling system as corrupt.

British lawyer Geoffrey Robertson and his fake Magnitsky story

Sometimes the people who work for the West's Deep State are subtle. But not this time. A webinar by British lawyer Geoffrey Robertson, a self-proclaimed international human rights advocate who was promoting a book, was mired so deep in lies that if I was the UK authority overseeing that lawyer, I would disbar him for corruption of character. Either that or he is so credulous that he should be disbarred for extreme stupidity.

The April 1 webinar was sponsored by Doughty Street Chambers, a British association of lawyers which Robertson founded, and Intelligence Squared, a British speakers bureau.

Doughty allegedly represents the best interests of Julian Assange, the world's poster child for free speech oppression who exposed U.S. Iraq war crimes and was indicted by the U.S. and locked up in Britain's Belmarsh prison in conditions UN torture monitor Nils Melzer calls torture. You wouldn't know that from this "human rights" event. He was never mentioned.

Amal Clooney, another self-anointed human rights defender, whose fame comes from marrying actor George Clooney, introduced the hour with reference to tax fraudster William Browder, who has been on a campaign since "his lawyer was murdered in Russia." That lie was soon repeated by Robertson. Let's pass on Clooney, she didn't say much and didn't seem to know anything.

Data indicates YouTube DELETED 2.5 million 'dislikes' from Biden White House videos

YouTube has deleted about 2.5 million 'dislikes' from videos on the official White House channel of President Joe Biden, according to data collected and posted online by a researcher who wished to remain anonymous. YouTube recently announced that it's testing a new page design that hides the dislike count.

The Google-owned video platform allows users to give videos either a thumb up (like) or thumb down (dislike). For at least two years, it's had a policy to remove likes and dislikes it considers spam.

"We have policies and systems in place to ensure that the engagement on YouTube is authentic, and remove any fraudulent metrics," a YouTube spokesperson told The Epoch Times via email, but when asked, wouldn't go into details on what criteria it uses to make these calls.

Comment: YouTube has been coving for Biden for quite a while

Even as a White Helmets boss admits 'former' militant links, Canadian national media talks 'Russian disinfo'

Even when a high-ranking White Helmet admits that some of the 'rescuers' came from the ranks of Syrian militants, all he gets from Canada's national broadcaster is unquestioning praise and concern about "Russian disinformation."

On March 30, Carol Off, the host of As it Happens on Canada's government-funded CBC, interviewed Montreal-based Farouq Habib, deputy general manager of the White Helmets, about the organization's operatives and their family members evacuated to Jordan (via Israel, with Canada's help) nearly three years ago.

At the time, Canada pledged to take in 50 White Helmets and 200 family members. Off's focus was on 43 evacuees who still haven't arrived in Canada.
