Fox News in Trump's Georgia Indictment?

-

Background

Will Fox News feature as evidence in Trump’s Georgia indictment? In April 2021, the TV network agreed to pay Dominion Voting Systems $787 million for tainting its reputation. Dominion had sued for $1.6 billion. Fox repeated Trump’s claims on air that voting machines rigged the election so that Joe Biden could win the 2020 presidential election. “The truth matters. Lies have consequences,” said Justin Nelson, a Dominion lawyer.

Old piece I posted on 1 August 2021

Joe Biden of the Democratic Party is the 46th U.S. President because Donald Trump, the 45th lost the election in November 2020.

Trump did not accept defeat so he accused people and machines of voter fraud. That’s why companies like Dominion Voter Systems have taken him and Fox News to court for defamation.

It is common sense, but it must be reiterated that vote counting machines don’t vote. They don’t belong to blue or red states. They don’t have digital synchronized swimming that ends up with one result: Donald Trump winning Georgia and the election.

Voting machines don’t interpret one man’s wishful thinking into reality. Trump told Brad Raffensperger, Georgia Secretary of State he must give him 11,780 votes so that he could win.

Raffensperger could not produce them because machines do not deliver cheese if they were fed grass. Trump wanted a second run in being the president and if he had his way, he would be president-for-life.

Machines are programmed. They have a ‘brain’ that tells them what to do. Voting machines count votes. It’s an in and out situation. They count a Democrat win if more voters feed it with such. That is what voters fed the machines which resulted in the Biden victory.

That is how they counted votes that sent Reverend Raphael Warnock and Jonathan Ossoff to the Senate. Texas is a red state and remained red because voting machines received more votes for the Republican Party.

Trump lost the election. He says he was robbed. Voting machines are one of his scapegoats. Voting machine companies like Smartmatic and Dominion Voting System have taken the Trump organization to court for besmirching their business reputation. America awaits the outcome.

Elections And Political Bullies

Forget democracy.   It should be called political bullying. We are watching it in the prelude to the Canadian election on the 19 th of October, 2015.   Americans have also started their political bullying for the looming presidential election next year. So many trees wasted on books about democracy.   Some countries have big budgets for invading other countries ‘ to defend democracy’ but it is seldom practised in campaigning for elections.   Calling opponents names and printing flyers attacking each other is behaviour that will not be tolerated in kindergarten, but it is all legal, in campaigning.   It is irritating and such a let-down to the whole notion of democracy.   Grown-up men and women behaving like Grade One kids. It is also misleading because many voters believe it is real hatred.   Don’t let that fool you.   These politicians play golf together, attend the same dinner parties, eat and drink at the same social events, share jokes and cut deals in parliament.   They

Comfort Food As Regret Food

Chicken curry. Comfort food is good for the soul, which usually bleeds in winter from icy roads, bad drivers that want to annihilate pedestrians, frozen fingers and toes that take a sabbatical.   What happened to my toes?   I thought I was wearing special socks for boots? We therefore have a right to comfort food which throws doctors’ orders out of the window and has no loyalty to calories.   No calculator on the table, thanks very much.   Piece of bread 5 calories, half a banana 10 calories, sugar-free cheesecake 2,000 calories.   Ah! Ah!  We only live once. Naw!   Comfort food is old school food with its compulsory second helping.   It involves licking fingers and giving a big sigh, about the good life, which is shelter, food, love and debt.   The problem is the zip.   The jeans remind you that comfort food can also be called you will regret food .   Home sweet home is even sweeter in winter after surviving blowing snow and bumper to bumper traffic. What is more welcoming th

No Air Miles

I don’t have Air Miles.   I’m considering putting that on a T-Shirt because I cannot go to the drugstore (chemist) or coffee shop without the cashier asking me if I have air miles. We waited for about two minutes the other day, while this guy looked for his Air Miles card in his overweight wallet.   For what?   For a few points. I don’t have air miles because Mathematics is a foreign language.   I was never good in numbers. That is why I squashed the idea of being an investment banker very early in life.   I understand you can invest in cornfields before the soil is turned up or pork bellies even before a baby pig is born. That is how I view air miles, investing in tomorrow or the unknown.   I’m the dumb one.   Some people understand this air miles’ thing so well, I overheard one customer saying: I can even convert my points into cash. Points and air miles are the same thing in Canada and the U.S.   Drugstores or clothing stores even give you a card to collect point
