Keeping the Faith in Dark Days : Election 2020

Today is a hard, hard day.  This is the first really dark day of the inevitable storm.  I believe it's a storm that will cleanse us in the end, but we have to survive it intact. 

The dream of our forefathers, the America they envisioned, is not dead. Periodically it has had growing pains, and come out better for it.  You and I, by virtue of the peaceful age into which we were born, have not seen these things, and perhaps we have a lopsided view.  Some of you saw war in Korea, or Vietnam, so you know the horror first hand.  But you never saw it on your shores. Those that have are all dying out now - to our detriment, because they can't keep us aware of what the world really holds beyond our utopian existence, and how precarious our lives are. 

And so here we are today.  Let's look at what is real today, and let's look at how we survive it. 

Here are the facts on this day, November 7, three days after the election:  

• Joe Biden is NOT the "'president elect".  He will not be until he is certified to be the winner in every state and voted in by electoral vote.  That has not happened and will not, before December 14. So for all the celebrating in the streets, what is an illusion is just that . . . an illusion the Democrats have staged to intimidate Trump and his supporters into surrender.
•  If you have followed closely the steps of the Trump lawyers in the past few days, you will know that the claims from mainstream media - including Fox and its pundits - that there is no real evidence of fraud, is just plain dishonest.  I have watched three different anchors today demand - DEMAND - of their Trump-affiliated guest that they prove right then and there any fraud. How ridiculous is that? I nearly cheered when savvy conservative lawyer Harmeet Dillon, a current insider to the Trump case, calmly stated when a Fox anchor demanded proof of her, "I don't discuss legal strategy."  Especially not with some bubble-brained anchor.  This is the point:  Just because some news anchor doesn't think there is proof, does not in any way mean there is not proof.  I am flabbergasted today by the intense effort of media - especially Fox News - to insist there is no proof; it is so over-the-top that it reeks of dishonesty. See it for what it is, Patriots. They are in bed with someone.
• The fact is - what we do know for certain at this point - is that the Trump legal team has collected written and signed affidavits from several individuals who have witnessed incidents of fraud. Some of these people are postal workers. Some are poll workers. They ARE talking and this will all come out. Lawyers would be idiots to broadcast to the dishonest mass media what all they know and are collecting. That must and should be saved for the courtroom.  We have to wait and have faith.

I want to suggest what I believe is going on right now and what specific issues are being looked at by

Trump's team. I believe that there is substantial evidence, and that it is in both an early investigative phase and the early phase of lawsuits being filed.  

• As I mentioned above, there are individual affidavits being collected. One of Trump's legal team stated that there are over 100 people witness to fraud who are willing to testify to it. 
• There is evidence in the state of Michigan that several thousand votes in a single county were switched during counting from Trump to Biden.  It subsequently came out that the same software blamed for the glitch (if indeed it was a glitch) has been used in several other counties as well, and those counts are expected to be off. You can bet the Trump team is hot on that trail. They will be determining exactly how many votes were affected - all changed to favor Biden.  There are reportedly 6000 in the initial error in the first county alone. At this point we leave facts and enter the realm of educated guesses and speculation - you will each have to educate yourself and decide what to believe. It is possible that the "software glitch" was software intentionally applied to facilitate cheating without being caught. It is also possible that this software has been employed in some 30 states for this election. If true, this could be massive fraud.  Read more about this software here: https://wentworthreport.com
• There are at least two postal workers who have come forward to the Trump team to say that they were asked to alter dates on ballots to reflect them arriving on time, when they arrived late. This was in Pennsylvania. There are additional workers who witnessed supervisors directing workers to alter dates, or supervisors altering dates personally.  These affidavits name specific supervisors. 
• There are incidents of poll workers filling out ballots with/for people, encouraging them to vote Biden. These included those who identified as GOP workers.  (Some videos are circulating on social media claiming to show poll workers sitting at tables filling out ballots. This is false: damaged ballots are duplicated, by a process where one worker reads the answers and the other fills out a substitute ballot. Yes it is ripe for monkey business, but in itself it is not fraud.)
• Also in PA are multiple incidents of observers being either ousted from the building or being asked to "observe" from as much as 80 yards away. This is not "reasonable access". Also, there is documented evidence of poll workers wearing Biden masks, and of pro-Biden propaganda posters at the entrances of polling places - these are both forbidden by law.
• We now have a situation where both a state supreme court and the US Supreme Court - in the person of Justice Alito - have ordered PA to stop counting ballots received after the election, and to isolate those from the count.  PA has chosen to ignore the US Supreme Court, violating the law blatantly. A country cannot exist when a people refuses to obey the highest court. 

These are simply some incidents I understand to be under investigation. I do not waste my time wallowing in conspiracy theory and paranoia. We can't afford that :  we have to be very clear about facts, we have to know what we are alleging, not engage in rumor. 

The question becomes what do we do as individuals in this tough time?  What is the mindset that is not only the wisest, but the healthiest?  This is simply my take on it, but I'm an old lady, and I've been around to see a lot of nonsense unfold in this world.  I've also survived a lot myself.  So take it for what it's worth, but this is my plan.

1. Remember that the mainstream media, your liberal family and friends, and most of social media, is going to try to beat you down.  They are deeply invested at this point in creating a false reality and putting it in front of your eyes - because that is their way to political power.  Remember that every fascist movement since the modern world began - and this Democratic movement is fascist by definition - uses false information and intimidation and emotional exhaustion, to take power.  That is what you are seeing now.  If you have to write on a list what is reality and post it on your bathroom mirror, cling to it.  Stay strong and focused. 
2. When you get tired remember what we are fighting for.  We are fighting for individual freedom, for an end to the horror that is late term abortion, for the right of Christians to be free from harassment, for safety from gangs, Muslim extremism, ANTIFA and Marxists who want to topple the government (and believe me, that is exactly what this is). We are fighting for the right to own land, to work in a field we want to, to start our own enterprises, to prosper.  We are fighting to free our children from socialist indoctrination in our schools.  We are fighting for exactly the same freedoms our founders told us were the only reason for living.  They risked their lives for these ideals and many gave their lives. 
3. If you don't, deep down, have absolute faith that there is a God, a great and good God, who oversees everything - if you can't grasp it or accept it or you struggle to find any comfort in it - do two things: First, pray. You will be heard, even when you don't know how to hear anything back. Peace is right there, for your asking.  Secondly, talk to other Patriots about it. Ask them how they keep faith.  Contact me if you like - my own faith has been a lifetime journey, hard-won, but now unshakable. 
4. If you have a strong faith, you know what to do.  Use it to keep calm, use it to keep clear-sighted, use it to cling fast to the values that have brought us all to this. Use it to help you understand what is a just anger, and what is a just fight, and do everything in a way that you can be proud of your conduct no matter what lies in the future. 

I want to say a word about the nature of the Democrats and their plan. I base my take upon a lifetime of fascination in world politics, and a good understanding of historical patterns.  Take the following into consideration.

Every social-ideology-driven movement, from the French Revolution to the Bolshevik Revolution (leading

to Communist Soviet Russia), to Chairman Mao (leading to modern communist China) to the Nazi socialist movement to more modern South American regimes - uses the same tools. Those time-tested tools are exactly the ones we are seeing now in the USA.  

For example:  

• The media is in line with the socialist branch of revolutionaries. Eventually, the socialist government takes actual control of all mass media.  We see cable news and newspapers fall into line with the Leftists, protect them, and engage in a unified pro-Leftist propaganda. Remember that this is an historical pattern, and it always - ALWAYS means loss of freedom.  
• Schools are increasingly under control of the socialist movement. Children are encouraged to believe in a system contrary to their parents' teaching, and contrary to organized religion. Finally, they are encouraged to report on their own parents.
• Street protests become more and more violent and frequent. The rising socialist government not only fails to engage in any prosecution under the current law, but it actively engages in encouraging the violence and changing laws to protect the Revolution. 
• Violence and destruction of property is used to intimidate the general populace, and the longer there is not any forthcoming consequence for those committing violence, they become ever more bold, until even murder is seen as necessary and justified. It is interesting that even in France during the Revolution, many of those thousands guillotined, drowned, and otherwise murdered had no real trials, although a previous legal system was already in place. It was deemed outdated and inadequate, and the revolutionaries were their own juries and judges. 
• The dissemination of real fact is problematic, since the Revolution - ever gaining power - controls all information and formal communication. That, together with the increasing fear in the populace, builds the Revolution's false reality and keeps them in power. What we haven't seen before is an age and a society where mass internet communication is possible - how that factors in is yet to be seen. 
• Consider:  Hillary Clinton's graduate thesis was on Saul Alinsky. Google - that leftist rag - will lead you to believe he was simply a sort of humanitarian philosopher activist.  What he really was is a rabid socialist Marxist. If you doubt it, check out his famous Rules for Radicals - this is what ANTIFA follows, it's what the founders of BLM admit to following. It's what the Left is using. It's a sort of blueprint for a societal takeover. It is chilling.  Barack Obama was another big fan of Alinsky - check out Obama's own biography - from which you will also learn that he was literally raised  by both radical Muslims and self-avowed communists. Those were his mentors.  Is it all beginning to make sense?  Kamala Harris - who intends to be the power behind the throne - is traditionally a race-baiting socialist, long considered one of the most left and radical in Congress.

The question now becomes how each of us will handle the coming times. This fight is just beginning against the coup - the overturning of the government in a false election.  They are counting on you all to believe the impossible - that a senile old man, in the days AFTER the formal election, somehow took over all the counts and miraculously won, despite impossible statistical odds.  

It will go to court in the coming days; events will happen fast now.  It will be hard to know what is up, and what is real. Go on Parler.com  to connect with sane Patriots. Don't turn on leftist news. Read inspirational materials or educate yourself on socialist uprisings (I can recommend sources). If you have a gun, practice with it and make sure you have ammo.  

Remember this FACT:  No one in history realized how terrible the revolution would be. No one thought they could possibly be serious with all the anti-freedom talk. No one was as ready as they should have been.  Let's be ready this time.  What does America mean to you?  What does Freedom mean to you?  Be clear about that.  Know yourself, and do some thinking about your personal courage and your legacy.  Stay informed but don't wallow in bad news that is always temporary.  Keep a wider picture of things. Lean on prayer, and cultivate optimism - know that keeping your mind in a healthy place will be imperative in times to come.  

The fight is coming. Their revolution has begun.  Stay together, stay strong.  God bless us all, and God bless our beloved America.
