The video shared regarding the suitcases on election night in Fulton County, GA was an incredible smoking gun.
Here is the phone number for the Georgia’s governor’s office 404-656-1776. I just called and was able to state my concerns. The response was that the Governor has not addressed this issue as of yet but watch the official Kemp website for updates. Also as a voting Georgian I expressed my hopes that the Governor would address this issue as his political career in the state was depending on a complete investigation.
I imagine everyone concerned could call not just those in Georgia. The did not ask me any questions other than my name – of course there is caller ID.
No matter how you figure it the next four years or so will be a social and economic disaster. On the one hand you have the left taking over congress and the presidency by massive and obvious voter fraud with a clear agenda to open our borders and swarm us with replacement voters So that Americans can never win elections again, ever. On the other hand you have many who reject this banana republic style stealing of our republic and they swear they are willing to go to civil war over it. I believe that the latter is all big talk and complaining and they will in fact do nothing. But I do believe that the Democrats mean to own us lock stock and barrel. I think that they have embraced lockdowns and in the future it will be used to transfer money. assets and businesses to the select groups. I believe that they will use the climate scare scam to funnel off most of our nations wealth and destroy us. Finally I believe that as the income taxes revenues fail to produce as much as the left needs that they will siphon off military defense funds to fill their own coffers and this will encourage China and Russia to take risks that could cause WW. IMHO I think that this will be the SHTF event we have been preparing for and our preps may be focused on the wrong things. I would imagine that the left will try to finish us off in the next four years not trusting that another Trump won’t come along. In effect I think it is over and we just don’t know it yet. We will be like Venezuela and there will no coming back. It’s over, the hail Mary pass has been knocked down and the SCOTUS isn’t going to stop what’s coming next.
However right OneGuy is, i refuse to roll over and submit. There is work to be done here in my local community.
Stay in the saddle, brothers and sisters.
