Daily News Roundup
NOTABLE QUOTES
Jeffrey Tucker is Brownstone Institute’s founder and president: Nothing in this book contradicts what we’ve learned over these two years, namely that Mike Pence served as both a carrier pigeon and protecting veil for the national security state that took over the country in March 2020. It was he who gave the okay to Birx’s subversions. It was he who assisted in convincing Trump of the lockdowns. It was he who pushed the panic that led to massive spending, over purchases of masks and ventilators, he who pushed for the deployment of the Defense Production Act, and he who sent the Navy hospital ship to New York that went unused. And he not only defends all his actions but implies that they were all blessed by God.
D.F. Mulder contributor to American Thinker: When all is a war between good and evil, the law is but a weapon, and any order that arises from it is certain to be highly ideological, not to mention cruel and repressive, if not downright tyrannical.
Andy Ngo Threadreader: Exclusive: Bari doesn’t name too many names but the head of Twitter’s Strategic Response Team when secret actions were taken to stifle conservative accounts happened under Jeff Carlton, who worked for both CIA & FBI. He just deleted his LinkedIn. But I have an archive. @elonmusk
John Mac Ghlionn contributor to The American Mind: Some will say, what can the CCP learn about me from my microwave or refrigerator? To ask such a question misses the bigger picture. These devices can connect to other devices, including your cell phone, your child’s cell phone, your laptop, etc., which means that bad actors can also access these devices. The CCP doesn’t care about what you’re having for dinner, but it does care about your conversations, your browsing history, and the passwords stored on your devices.
Al Weaver reporter for The Hill: Schumer agreed to allow Sinema to keep her committee assignments, saying that will in turn allow Democrats to keep much of their newly gained power.“Kyrsten is independent; that’s how she’s always been. I believe she’s a good and effective Senator and am looking forward to a productive session in the new Democratic majority Senate,” he said in a statement. “We will maintain our new majority on committees, exercise our subpoena power, and be able to clear nominees without discharge votes.”
Peter Kasperowicz Fox News digital editor: The National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for fiscal year 2023 passed the House Thursday afternoon in a 350-80 vote. Included in that 4,400-page bill is a section on “Ukraine Debt Payment Relief.” That section says the U.S. treasury secretary will instruct U.S. representatives of international financial institutions to “use the voice, vote, and influence of the United States to advocate that the respective institution immediately provide appropriate debt service relief to Ukraine.” It instructs Treasury to commence “immediate efforts” with other governments and commercial creditors to “pursue comprehensive debt payment relief for Ukraine.”
45’S VICE PRESIDENT
War Room: Tucker Slams Judas Pence’s Unbearable New Book That Confirms His Role In Creating Shadow Government
Jeffrey Tucker of the Brownstone Institute talks to host Steve Bannon about what Mike Pence’s new book reveals about the former vice president’s role in subverting President Trump as he tried to bring sanity to the nation’s Covid-19 policies. “He does actually… confirm his role… He was the head of the coronavirus task force… He praises Fauci to the skies… At some point in this narrative, Trump realizes he’s being trolled and tricked… and gets fed up with it… ready to open up the country… and Pence reveals that it was he who sent Redfield and Birks on this nationwide tour of governors to persuade them to keep the schools closed. They were acting as a kind of shadow government, and they treated Trump like a marionette.” Watch the 6:30 minute interview: https://warroom.org/2022/12/09/tucker-slams-judas-pences-unbearable-new-book-that-confirms-his-role-in-creating-shadow-government/

THE TWITTER FILES
Solomon: Twitter files unmask censorship collaboration with feds, earlier effort to hamper Trump account
Former president was being “visibility filtered” well before being banned. Twitter executives engaged in extensive collaboration with federal law enforcement as they escalated censorship activities on the platform during the 2020 election, including an earlier effort to hamper Donald Trump’s social media visibility prior to banning his account.The explosive new revelations were made public by independent journalist Matt Taibbi on Friday night, facilitated by Twitter‘s new owner, Elon Musk.

Reuters: Musk Says ‘Possible’ That Twitter Gave Preference to Leftists During Brazil Election
“I’ve seen a lot of concerning tweets about the recent Brazil election,” Musk wrote on Twitter when asked by a user about elections possibly “handled” by the company’s previous management. “If those tweets are accurate, it’s possible that Twitter personnel gave preference to left wing candidates,” added the billionaire.

The Post Millennial: BREAKING: John Podesta’s ‘niece’ QUITS Twitter Trust & Safety Council as Elon Musk takes on child exploitation
Lesley Podesta, a woman who claimed to be the niece of John Podesta who is the former White House Chief of Staff for Bill Clinton and a Senior Advisor to Joe Biden, resigned from Twitter’s Trust and Safety Council on Thursday with two others saying it is over concerned about the “wellbeing of Twitter’s users.” In 2018. Lesley referred to John Podesta as “her uncle John.” It is unknown whether they are related by blood. […] In their resignation the three said “The establishment of the Council represented Twitter’s commitment to move away from a US-centric approach to user safety,” and stressed the globalist approach before Musk’s takeover. They claimed that Musk’s reliance on “automated content moderation” will create more “abuse and hate speech” on the platform.[…] What is clear, however, is that Twitter has done more to address the plague of child exploitation under Elon Musk than they ever did under the supervision of these people.
Sundance: Twitter Files #4 Released, Rules Changed to Target Trump – While Elon Musk Hints COVID Censorship Files Are Forthcoming

THE FIGHT FOR ELECTION INTEGRITY
Valentine: Cooking the Books: Why Republicans Always Come up Short
Election records begin with the voter registry. A voter, candidate, election official or a curious person with too much time on their hands can review these. They are usually available to candidates and political parties; sometimes costing thousands of dollars — sometimes free. Depends on the state. Republicans don’t understand there are two sets of books. One set we just noted – election rolls — everyone sees. The hidden set of books contains the ballot and phantom and address inventory. These three ingredients win elections. […] No matter how many votes Republicans bring to the party in early voting, the leftists, NGOs, churches, and homeless shelters will produce more — always enough to win. Leftists never win by a lot. They never win on election day — it is always a few days afterward. Ever wonder why? The leftists know they cannot win straight up. Read more at American Thinker.
ALL EYES REMAIN ON ARIZONA
Hodt: MUST READ – Our Most Important Report of the Midterm: Election Fraud, It’s Voter Roll Manipulation – Not Ballot Gathering!
Arizona We just finished the Fractal analysis for a state, where an America-First candidate, with a 10-point lead, lost a statewide election. You be the judge. You tell us, here, if chasing ballots would have changed that outcome. ** 42,000 changes to the election rolls within weeks of the election – most were illegal ** 21,000 new voters added to the election rolls, within 29 days of the election – almost every one is illegal. ** 8,000 voters appear to live in a business – each one would be illegal. ** 1,951 people received ballots at one address, and then voted from a different address – every one is illegal.** The Republican candidate – with an 11-point lead in the polls – lost by around 21,000 votes to a woman who was afraid to debate her! People, this data was from a single county! Think what the state analysis would yield! Read more: https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/12/election-fraud-voter-roll-manipulation-not-ballot-gathering/
Whedon: Kari Lake files election challenge in Arizona court
Lake asserts that “[t]he number of illegal votes cast in Arizona’s general election on November 8, 2022 far exceeds the 17,117 vote margin.” She further contends that “thousands of Republican voters were disenfranchised as a result of Maricopa County election officials’ misconduct in connection with the widespread tabulator or printer failures at 59% of the 223 vote centers in Maricopa County.” Lake’s claims echo those of Arizona Republican Attorney General candidate Abe Hamadeh, who filed a separate challenge on similar grounds Friday afternoon.

War Room: Kari Lake’s Mega Lawsuit Calls To Inspect Over 298,000 Early Votes Lacking Proper Chain Of Custody
Michael Leahy, the editor or the Star News Network, talks to host Steve Bannon about the lawsuit filed by Kari Lake yesterday to challenge the Arizona governor’s election, which showed Lake losing by a few thousand votes to Democrat Katie Hobbs. “You all know about the election day problems with tabulation errors at the printers, which affected int he case they allege over 50 percent of the 223 voting centers… But here is the new information, and it’s quite significant. They allege that on election day 298,000 early votes did not have the proper chain of custody…. In that case, that is a violation of Arizona election law…. I think that alone would be sufficient in my view to grant the remedy sought by the Lake team… either to declare her the victor or to have a new election in Maricopa County.” Watch the 6:12 minute interview: https://warroom.org/2022/12/10/kari-lakes-mega-lawsuit-calls-to-inspect-over-298000-early-votes-lacking-proper-chain-of-custody/

Gleason: Maricopa or Die
Can Arizona be the state to bust open the dam of concealment regarding the rampant election fraud in our country? […] All of the efforts to fight back against the fraud nationwide have been unsuccessful except for in Maricopa County, Arizona. Kari Lake, the gubernatorial candidate, is still fighting — filing lawsuit after lawsuit in an effort to overturn the “results” in her campaign, where the current secretary of state in charge of the election, Katie Hobbs, was her opponent. Hobbs wouldn’t recuse herself despite the fact that she would be overseeing her own election. Unbelievable! When outrageous election problems caused some counties to withhold their vote certifications, Hobbs threatened them with class 6 felonies. […] The biggest story that has appeared almost nowhere in mainstream media, including the once “fair, balanced, and unafraid” Fox News, is that in Maricopa County, in-person voters showed up for the August 2 primary, and they choose the Republican candidate 80% of the time…but they suddenly seemed to change their minds in the general election. […] We can only hope that Kari Lake will continue her fight against this fraud. Send her a few bucks to defray legal expenses. Read more at American Thinker.
Weaver: What Sinema’s party switch means for the Senate
Sinema says she will continue to vote and operate as she has in recent years, for better or, in the eyes of some on the left for worse. According to FiveThirtyEight, the Arizona senator has voted with President Biden 93.1 percent of the time — more than five other Democratic senators. […] Sinema said on Friday that she would not caucus with Republicans. “Nothing will change about my values or my behavior,” she told Politico.
CHINA: AMERICA’S MORTAL ENEMY
Ghlionn: The Hot CCP Spy War
U.S. Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo recently sounded the alarm on China, warning that the Communist nation poses a significant threat to U.S. national security. She’s right. And of all the security threats presented by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), the country’s unrelenting harvesting of data is perhaps the biggest. Which brings us to Haier, a Chinese multinational home appliances and consumer electronics company that is heavily invested in the U.S. market. Headquartered in Qingdao, Shandong, Haier Group Corporation entered the U.S. market in 1999. Initially focused on manufacturing and distributing two rather niche products—compact refrigerators and electric wine cellars—as profits grew, so did Haier’s vision for the future. In June 2016, Haier made headlines when it purchased GE Appliances, an American home appliance manufacturer based in Louisville, Kentucky, for $5.4 billion. That was the point when Haier went from being a Chinese company operating in the U.S. to a dangerous Chinese company operating in the U.S.

Reuters: China’s Xi Jinping calls for oil trade in yuan at Gulf summit in Riyadh
RIYADH: President Xi Jinping told Gulf Arab leaders on Friday that China would work to buy oil and gas in yuan, a move that would support Beijing’s goal to establish its currency internationally. Xi was speaking in Saudi Arabia where Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman hosted two “milestone” Arab summits with the Chinese leader which showcased the powerful prince’s regional heft as he courts partnerships beyond close historic ties with the West. Top oil exporter Saudi Arabia and economic giant China both sent strong messages during Xi’s visit on “non-interference”.

(A long eye-opening read) Sundance: DHS Partnered Social Media Surveillance Systems Delivering Mutual Benefits
Regardless of who owned Twitter, the nature of DHS controlling a backdoor portal into the content of social media was going to surface – as it has been unfolding from the two referenced censorship lawsuits. The Twitter Files represent a gateway of discovery into how government assisted creating “Oligarchical Systems.” Surveillance systems delivering mutual benefits called public-private partnerships were formed. Readers here are months ahead of where the arc of this story is destined. However, oligarchical beneficiaries will always defend the system against rogue oligarchs who become a threat.[…] How does an owner/operator take ownership of an organization and not know these senior executive issues? Reconcile these questions, and we begin to reconcile a background of activity that Mr. Musk may not know about. The alternative explanation is much more nefarious and involves Musk as a willing participant. Regardless, before going further I cannot emphasize this point enough. We cannot fight our way through these puzzling issues until we all approach the big questions from the same baseline, the root of what created the system. Barack Obama and Eric Holder did not create a weaponized DOJ and FBI; the institutions were already weaponized by the Patriot Act. What Obama and Holder did was take the preexisting system and retool it, so the weapons of government only targeted one side of the political continuum. This point is where many people understandably get confused. Elevator Speech: (1) The Patriot Act turned the intel surveillance radar from foreign searches for terrorists to domestic searches for terrorists. (2) Obama/Biden then redefined what is a “terrorist” to include their political opposition. DEEP DIVE: . . .

McMaken: The Jobs “Boom” Isn’t So Hot When We Remember Nearly Six Million Men Are Missing from the Workforce Last week, the employment news was all about how payrolls increased by 269,000 jobs and blew past expectations. Yet, when we looked at the actual number of employed persons, it turned out that the number of employed people has gone down in recent months. At 158.4 million, total employment is still nearly 400,000 workers below where it was before the Covid Panic of 2020.Those who support the everything-is-great narrative have responded to the unimpressive employed-workers numbers by dismissing them as a result of workers retiring and other demographic changes. These explanations, however, require that we ignore the fact that millions of men age 25-54—that is, men of working age—have removed themselves from the workforce. When so many men—men who would have been in the workforce 20 or 30 years ago—aren’t even trying to get a job, this lowers the unemployment rate and makes total jobs numbers look more impressive.

On Saturday, a gallery worker refused to give The Post details on the potential buyers of the untitled, 57×98 inch, mustard-yellow floral painting on Yupo Japanese paper. President Biden’s scandal-scarred son sold two other works a day after his second solo art show opened at the Georges Berges Gallery Friday. […] The White House has said that measures have been put in place to prevent any ethical concerns over potential buyers who might want to buy the work to curry favor with President Biden. [Note: Breitbart’s Husebo reported the following on 11/19/22 regarding Hunter’s 2021 art show: Rep. James Comer (R-TN), the top Republican on the House Oversight Committee, told Breitbart News Saturday he strongly suspects that Hunter Biden’s artwork was sold to Chinese oligarchs, potentially implicating president Joe Biden. “We are 95% sure that that artwork went to China,” Comer said.] Read more:https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/11/19/exclusive-james-comer-95-sure-hunters-artwork-sold-to-chinese-compromising-joe-biden/

THE CORRUPT & DANGEROUS DEMOCRAT PARTY MEDIA INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX
Gleason: Fox News MIA on Lake lawsuit
“Fair, Balanced and Unafraid” is now a distant memory. Whatever the cause, considering the Fox News Channel to be a name to trust is a complete waste of time. The fix is in. Fox News reports on what they are told, not what is important for the country. This includes the most popular shows in the evening, Jesse Waters, Tucker Carlson, Shawn Hannity, and Laura Ingraham. All four still appear to be fighting for our country, but only on approved stories. This has been going on for quite some time, but the absolute proof is that — based on what I saw — Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake’s lawsuit against election fraud in Maricopa County wasn’t given even one second of airtime last night, even though she has appeared as a guest on most of those shows in the past.

War Room: Steve Bannon Walks Through The Long History Of FBI Coups Internally And Externally
“War Room” host Steve Bannon provides a history lesson for young people about the dirty politics of the 1960s and ’70s that led to the Deep State pushing back against both President Kennedy and President Nixon, and how the FBI has been working against the people for years. The first segment talks about the relationship of Vietnam and the National Security apparatus to the events that led up to the assassination of JFK. It then continues with a discussion of Watergate, and how the FBI deputy director, Mark Felt, was instrumental in the removal of Nixon from power. In the second segment, Bannon goes into detail about how Felt manipulated Woodward and Bernstein from the Washington Post to fuel a coup against Nixon.

Anton: Nuclear Autumn
The closest the world ever came to nuclear war was almost certainly the Cuban Missile Crisis. But the closest we’ve come since—until now—was fall 1983. October 1962 is well-documented and well-remembered. Not so the close calls of September-November ’83. Familiarity with those events is useful for filling in the historical record and may also yield lessons for how to navigate the present crisis with Russia over Ukraine. […] Among the earliest of the much else were so-called “psychological operations” or “PsyOps.” These can take many forms, from false flag events like the Reichstag fire or the January 6 pipe bomb, to demoralization propaganda such as Tokyo Rose and Lord Haw-Haw during World War II. In this case, the “ops”—begun in February 1981, mere days into Reagan’s presidency—included sneaking American submarines into Soviet waters where they would suddenly surface near a critical military installation, hang around long enough to be seen, and then submerge and bug out. Somewhat more unnerving to the Kremlin was the practice of . . . Read more: https://claremontreviewofbooks.com/nuclear-autumn/

INTERNATIONAL
Toameh: The Apartheid Libel to Destroy Israel
Recently… however, with the UNHRC’s persistent allegations that Israel is an apartheid state, that label is being pushed even further in an apparent effort to make it stick. The complicity of recent reports from NGOs such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch appear to be trying to ensure that their libel will be complete. The campaign emboldens the radicals among the Palestinians, including the Iranian-backed Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), whose declared goal is to eliminate Israel and replace it with an Islamist state. Terrorist groups such as Hamas and PIJ are undoubtedly happy to see non-Arabs and non-Muslims — and even ostensible human rights organizations — join their effort to falsely depict Israel as an apartheid state.

The certification of the election is scheduled for Monday.
