In a recent interview with Tucker Carlson, Devon Archer (former business partner of Hunter Biden) described the actions of Rosemont Seneca as “flying too close to the sun” and eventually garnering attention that the company didn’t want and couldn’t handle (a common problem when selling influence, I’m sure). Things were going well for Archer and Biden — very well. But things going very well wasn’t enough for the Rosemont Seneca pair, and eventually they (well, one of them) got burned by the heat of their greed.
I was reminded of this story as I watched the left’s giddy Christmas-morning-like reaction to Trump’s latest indictment. Whereas the first round of politically motivated indictments deal with difficult-to-litigate events that happened years ago, this latest batch deals with the 2020 election and also stretches the law beyond the breaking point.
Before we go any further down this line of thinking, let’s take a quick trip back to 2017 (January 6th, as fate would have it!) when democrats repeatedly objected to the certification of electors from states that Trump won:
Here we have an entire cast of elected officials objecting to the certification of electors slated to vote for Donald Trump. How many years do you think these guys collectively got behind bars for this insurrection that’s dangerous to democracy?
Right, zero.
How many charges were filed against them? How many censures or fines or any official reprimands at all?
Right, zero.
Keep that in mind going forward.
And here’s something else to keep in mind: Kamala Harris suggested getting rid of voting machines and moving to paper ballots, insinuating that Trump (with the help of Russians) would use the machines to rig the 2020 election:
Did I miss the news that Kamala Harris was unable to continue serving as Vice President of the United States because she was arrested on treason charges for daring suggest the election could be compromised by voting machines? I feel like I probably would have gotten word of that……..
Of course, nothing happened to Harris at all — which is good, because what she’s saying here is common sense: we shouldn’t have election systems hooked up to the internet and we should use paper ballots to ensure election integrity.
Returning to the present, Fulton County Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis is reopening a huge can of worms by claiming that Trump knowingly spread lies about the 2020 election. Basically, the DA claims that Trump lost, Trump KNOWS that he lost, but he continued lying about it so that he could stay in power. (You may remember that Jack Smith’s case hinges around the same theory.)
Legally, that’s an awful high bar to clear, especially when Trump is still going around telling everybody who will listen that the election was rigged.
And whereas a few weeks ago the 2020 election was mostly in the nation’s rearview mirror, now it’s once again front and center — and this time Trump has a chance to make his case, likely on TV with the big channels all tuning in live. And I guarantee you that what he says will completely shock MSM watchers across the country — because they’ve never seen things like this (the GA hearing Trump refers to above):
(You can skip to 5:00 to see workers kick people out, wait until they’re gone, then begin counting again — after pulling boxes of ballots out from under tables.)
That video by itself raises a ton of questions that were never adequately answered (“nobody told people to leave, they just left” is what election officials settled on), but it also doesn’t happen in a vacuum. Watch as CBS News announces a “water pipe burst” in the arena, forcing officials to stop counting.
As you clearly see in the actual video from State Farm Arena, there’s no water anywhere. The entire story was “fake news” from the very beginning. Yet “water pipe burst” was the excuse given to shut down the count — and here’s the status of the race at that time:
This is what happened in Georgia after the pause:
Nothing at all suspicious there, especially when we see the exact same after-polls-close jump in other swing states. (Michigan and Wisconsin immediately come to mind.)
And because Georgia took so long to finish counting the votes and declare a winner, Trump had an extremely small window to attempt to uncover the truth about what happened. (The same exact thing happened in Washington’s 2004 governor’s race — which I’m convinced became the nationwide blueprint.) Ultimately with so little time before official certification, the courts didn’t even hear the evidence, leaving numerous questions unanswered to this day.
Did you catch who was on the ballot at 2:35, getting a dot put into her bubble even though the voter wrote “Republican” as a write-in? (Making the ballot perfect for manual adjudication!) None other than Fani Willis — the DA who brought the indictment against Trump in the first place.
I see why she might not want anybody looking too closely at those ballots.
Independent reporter (and all-round awesome person) Heather Mullins recently dove deeper into the duplicate ballot issue:
All of these videos and suspicious election-night circumstances demand answers (especially in the light of recent revelations out of Michigan), but that door was firmly slammed shut on all of us.
Shut, that is, until DA Willis flew too close to the sun and cracked it open to charge Trump with conspiracy. Now Trump and his team of high-powered lawyers get to call and cross-examine witnesses, introduce evidence, and demand answers from a system that has refused to give them up since election night — and he can broadcast that information directly onto the televisions of millions of Americans who had no idea it even existed. (Now’s a good time for another reminder that 1/6 was to be the day that evidence of election fuckery was presented to the public — a lucky break for a few specific people!)
Trump has been waiting for this chance since election night.
Oh, Br’er Fox, I don’t care what you do with me, so long as you just don’t throw me in that briar patch over there!!!!
As I’ve written previously, the entire Democratic playbook over the last three years hinges on “The Big Lie” actually being a big lie. If Trump WAS robbed on election night 2020, suddenly the events of 1/6 start to look a whole lot different — as do the ensuing attacks on MAGA politicians and supporters. (As an aside, Democrats have acted EXACTLY like a group of people who stole the election — arresting Trump included.)
In a trial between Trump’s team that’s had three years to strengthen their election fraud case and a system that can’t even manage to upload a file correctly, I know where my money is.

I remember in 2020 watching the video of the counting in Atlanta suspended, and after everyone left, they pulled boxes out from under a table and continued counting. This doesn't surprise me.
Trump won. Nothin’ more needs to be said.
