  1. Car Bomb Attack Targets Head of Provincial Council in Afghanistan’s Zabul, Source Says (sputniknews, Nov 29, 2020)
    https://sputniknews.com/asia/202011291081308940-car-bomb-attack-targets-head-of-provincial-council-in-afghanistans-zabul-source-says/

    “A car bomb has exploded in Afghanistan’s southern Zabul province on Sunday, and the head of the provincial council, Ata Jan Haqbayan, was targeted, a source told Sputnik.

    The blast occurred when Haqbayan was on his way to the office.

    The exact number of casualties is not yet known, according to the source.

    Meanwhile, the TOLOnews broadcaster reported, citing Haqbayan’s relatives, that the local official and three others were injured following a suicide attack in Qalat, the capital of the Zabul province.

    So far, no group has taken responsibility for the blast.”

  2. Multiple Explosions Reported in Eritrean Capital Amid Brewing Tensions in Neighbouring Ethiopia (sputniknews, Nov 29, 2020)
    https://sputniknews.com/africa/202011291081308414-multiple-explosions-reported-in-eritrean-capital-of-asmara/

    “Earlier this month, at least two missiles were fired from the northern Ethiopian state of Tigray at neighbouring Eritrea as the breakaway region remains engulfed in a conflict with Addis Abba.

    Six explosions were reported in the Eritrean capital of Asmara late on Saturday, according to the US State Department, amid tensions in neighbouring Ethiopia, where government forces are fighting the Tigray People’s Liberation Front.

    The US State Department is urging US citizens to avoid non-essential travel to Eritrea.

    The statement comes a day after AFP reported, citing four regional diplomats, that Asmara had come under fire from Ethiopia’s northern Tigray region. The sources told the media outlet that at least one rocket had been fired. There was no immediate confirmation of how many rockets were launched, and whether any casualties or damage were caused.

    The Tigray People’s Liberation Front claimed responsibility for similar strikes on Eritrea two weeks ago, however, there has not yet been any official comment from the group on Saturday’s explosions in Asmara.

    On Saturday, Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed announced that federal forces had gained “full control” of Mekelle, Tigray’s capital, within hours of launching an offensive there.

    “God bless Ethiopia and its people! We have entered Mekele without innocent civilians being targets”, the prime minister said.
    It was reported earlier this month that at least two rockets, suspected to have been launched by the leaders of Ethiopia’s Tigray Region, had hit Asmara. Shortly after the attack, one eyewitness in Asmara told The Telegraph that the rockets appeared to be long-range missiles, while Morad News reported that three missiles hit the Eritrean capital, with two of them striking the airport and the third hitting the Sembel residential complex.

    At the time, Chairman of the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) and acting President of the Tigray Region Debretsion Gebremichael claimed responsibility for two missile attacks in the Amhara region of Ethiopia and did not exclude more strikes, including in Eritrea, claiming on Tigray TV that all means would be used “to defend ourselves”.

    The fighting in Ethiopia’s north broke out in early November after the federal government accused the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF), the ruling party in the Tigray region, of attacking a local military base.

    The Ethiopian armed forces have launched an operation in the defiant region. The prime minister’s office announced a state of emergency in Tigray for a period of six months. Over 43,000 people have reportedly fled to Sudan over the escalation of tensions.”

  3. Saudi-Led Coalition Attacks Houthi Military Air Base Near Sanaa Int’l Airport, Source Says (sputniknews, Nov 29, 2020)
    https://sputniknews.com/middleeast/202011291081309647-saudi-led-coalition-attacks-houthi-military-air-base-near-sanaa-intl-airport-source-says/

    “The Saudi-led Arab coalition fighting in Yemen has launched airstrikes against a military base of the Shia rebel Houthi movement located near the international airport in the Yemeni capital of Sanaa, a source from the airport’s administration told Sputnik on Sunday.

    “The Arab coalition’s aircraft launched two strikes against the Al-Dailami air base near Sanaa International Airport north of the capital,” the source said.

    Yemen has been gripped by a civil war between the Yemeni government forces, led by President Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi, and the Houthi movement since 2014.

    The Saudi-led coalition of Arab states entered the conflict on the side of the government in 2015, after the Houthis made significant gains during the early days of clashes. Since then, the coalition has been conducting air, land and sea operations against the rebels, who control Sanaa and large areas in northern and western Yemen.”

  5. Suspected extremists kill at least 40 farmers in Nigeria (abcnews, Nov 29, 2020)
    https://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/suspected-extremists-kill-40-farmers-nigeria-74445568

    “Suspected members of the Islamic militant group Boko Haram killed at least 40 rice farmers and fishermen while they were harvesting crops in Nigeria’s northern Borno State, officials said.

    The attack was staged Saturday in a rice field in Garin Kwashebe, a Borno community known for rice farming, on the day residents of the state were casting votes for the first time in 13 years to elect local government councils, though many didn’t go to cast their ballots.

    The farmers were reportedly rounded up and summarily killed by armed insurgents.

    Malam Zabarmari, a leader of a rice farmers association in Borno state, confirmed the massacre to The Associated Press.

    “The farmers were attacked at the Garin-Kwashebe rice field in Zabarmari community, and according to reports reaching us since afternoon, about 40 of them were killed,” he said, adding that it likely could be up to 60 people killed.

    Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari expressed grief over the killings…”

  6. In the distance was a sky so black it was as if God had spilled his ink. These clouds we saw from our basement windows. We huddled in shelter against the rising groan of this tornado wind. Seeing it in my sleep means it was a telephone call from my worried subconscious. I get these calls from time to time. Usually there is no caller ID, so it goes unnoted. Sometimes, though, the voice on the end of the line, along with the message spoken, is loud and clear and means business. The last time this happened I bought a cheap guitar.

    You could speak on the other line, simultaneously, to a relative who lived in another city, state or even country, and they could tell you they did not see the storm as you saw it. You could describe it, but their picture was different. Their sky was blue and they were not sheltering in place. They were enjoying themselves in a crowded restaurant. You scratched your head and wondered how such a storm as you saw it could go unseen by anyone, anywhere. But this is how it was. Division worked. Your relative on the telephone describes people coming to his area from afar. Refugees from the ink. The storm creeps up in different jurisdictions. In my dream the volume and the fury of the monster builds. We become covered by it. Above the noise, in this same basement, I hear another man shouting. He is screaming at the top of his lungs. He yells that the only way to safety is to get into another basement across the river in Watertown, New York. Weird.

    Everything makes perfect sense in these “telephone calls” until you try to explain them to someone else.

    Lately I wonder less what everything is about. Despite residual questions and mysteries, much is now clear. I test my perceptions by going back to what some people are on record saying. Remember George Soros saying with such foregone certainty that President Trump would soon be history. Remember Hillary Clinton saying whatever you do don’t give an inch to those challenging the election. Remember the Dominion company owner saying he made sure of the election result. Days, weeks and months will pass and these utterances may be forgotten, but they will stick in my mind forever. These people were not speaking to a general public, but to troops in the field of operations. They are able to give quite specific instructions through mainstream communications. The messages are codified to the masses simply because they require context to be fully understood. This context is instructions provided previously. The public statements are for reinforcement. If we had the time and patience to go through msm pundit statements of the last few years I am sure we would see an awful lot of eerily foreshadowing messages. Bill Gates. I bet much could be gleaned just by focusing on a single George Stephanopoulos. This would be an interesting exercise. We have suspected communists were plotting to takeover for many years. We have seen them take over most major institutions. They clearly have worked out their plan in brilliant detail. The planners come from every field of expertise–finance, politics, medicine, media, computing, psychology, law–and are tops in their games. They have the United Nations and all its subsidiaries. Their Art of War patience to win without a fired shot is coming to be tested.

    I am curious about Ontario Premier Doug Ford. When did he flip? Who flipped him? For how much? What was in that conversation? Be with us or against us, Dear Leader said? I suppose the same can be asked of any person of political influence.

    With each passing day the wind becomes a little stronger, the sky a little darker. Resistance is become gradually more kinetic. See the BBQ restaurant guy in Toronto? See how the cops are paid by taxpayers to suppress taxpayers? And Doug Ford justifies all of this through hocus-pocus PCR testing? Everything is rooted in the very bad lie that is PCR testing? 36 cycles of amplification of genetic junk. How long will people put up with this as they become better informed? See that freaky-looking muscle-builder-dyed-hair-big-lips guy who we’ve seen recently conscientiously resisting also in Toronto, trying to help the BBQ guy? This is why we heard the globalists say they had to move quickly. They knew they had to get anti-dissident controls in place quickly. Those Covid-19 isolation camps across Canada are no joke, folks.

    Heroes now come from all walks. We will all be tested soon enough. It’s better we try to stick together as best we can. There is strength in numbers.

  7. Stop-and-search ‘SAVES Black Lives’, says Scotland Yard chief Cressida Dick who suggests George Floyd death has fuelled antagonism against UK police (dailymail, Nov 29, 2020)
    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8997899/Stop-search-SAVES-Black-Lives-says-Scotland-Yard-chief-Cressida-Dick.html

    “Cressida Dick has claimed that controversial stop and search tactics are saving the lives of young black men in London.

    The commissioner of the Metropolitan Police said black boys are nine times more likely to be murdered than their white counterparts.

    The Met Police have deployed stop and search tactics in an effort to rid the streets of knives and guns.

    But it has led to accusations of racism, with black people targeted much more by police.

    The commissioner told The Sunday Times: ‘We are targeting young people who are likely to be carrying knives and guns and drugs, we’re in among the drug markets and what it means is, overall, a higher proportion of young black lads being stopped than white lads.’

    Dick continued: ‘Somewhere between 23 and 25 per cent of those we stop have something on them they shouldn’t have and that’s the same whether they’re black, white or Asian.’

    The London mayor’s office data shows that black people are three and a half times more likely to be stopped and searched than white people.

    This summer, in the wake of the Black Lives Matter protests, a number of viral videos showed black people being stopped by police.

    This included the Labour MP Dawn Butler and Team GB athlete Bianca Williams.

    But the top police chief claimed that the BLM protests in the UK this year have been mistaken about perceived police brutality.

    She said many wrongly believe officers use the same tactics as those in the US, whose killing of George Floyd using a chokehold sparked the global demonstrations.

    Dick said: ‘Sadly some of the material young people may have seen on social media this summer, where what happens in America is confused and made to look like police here [are involved], may have alienated them.

    ‘They misunderstand that what’s happened in another country is what happens here….”

  8. British ISIS jihadist at Syrian prison camp demands he be allowed to return to the UK for ‘rehabilitation’ (dailymail, Nov 29, 2020)
    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8997245/British-ISIS-jihadist-Syrian-prison-camp-demands-return-UK-rehabilitation.html

    “A British ISIS jihadist held in a Syrian prison camp has demanded he be allowed to return to the UK for ‘rehabilitation’.

    Aseel Muthana, an ice cream seller, left Wales for Syria in 2013, aged 17, following his brother Nasser and another friend in joining the jihadist group.

    Muthana was with the group until its bloody last stand last year when they were finally defeated by western-backed Syrian forces in Bargouz.

    His family feared he had died until Muthana resurfaced last year at a prison camp in northern Syria.

    Now 24, Muthana has said in an interview with The Sunday Mirror that he should be allowed to return to the UK to be rehabilitated.

    ‘I feel abandoned by the UK. I have human rights. I should be rehabilitated,’ he said in an interview with the newspaper from his secret holding cell.

    ‘I mean, okay, let’s say I was a criminal – you can’t just leave me. It’s normal – for human rights. Even if I was a criminal I should be rehabilitated. Have some sort of contact with my family, my country.’

    Muthana said that he understands that were he to return to the UK, he would likely spend years in jail, but has had time to get his story straight ahead of the potential eventuality of standing trial.

    His brother Nasser died in February 2016 in a drone strike, two years after the Islamic State caliphate was founded – of which the pair were founding members.

    As a result, Muthana may well be the longest-serving British member of ISIS…”

  9. EXPOSED: The shadowy Islamic State cell looking to free Western jihadi brides from Kurdish refugee camps in Syria in exchange for cash raised through Facebook (dailymail, Nov 29, 2020)
    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8996835/The-shadowy-Islamic-State-cell-looking-free-Western-jihadi-brides.html

    “A shadowy Islamic State fundraising cell seeking to free Western jihadi brides from Kurdish refugee camps in Syria has been exposed by The Mail on Sunday.

    Undercover reporters spent weeks communicating with a ‘fixer’ in Turkey before catching a ‘courier’ on camera in London last Friday picking up what he thought was a £4,500 donation to the terror group’s cause.

    In fact, the brown envelope left at the ‘dead drop’ contained only a crossword puzzle book.

    As the Metropolitan Police began an investigation, this newspaper can reveal the sophisticated network apparently created to fund the escape of jihadi brides from camps in Syria. The camps include Al-Hol where Shamima Begum, who fled Britain aged 15 to join ISIS five years ago, was held.

    The Government last week launched a bid at the Supreme Court to overturn a decision to allow Begum, now 21, to leave Syria and return to the UK to challenge a decision by the Home Office to strip her of her British citizenship.

    Its lawyers argued that doing so ‘would create significant national security risks’. Meanwhile, there is mounting concern about the resurgence of ISIS influence in the camps where an estimated 13,500 foreign women and children linked to the terror group are held.

    According to a report last week, an Instagram group called Caged Pearls – believed to be run by British women detained in Al-Hol who are raising money to fund their escape from the camps – is advertising itself with a poster reading: ‘Al-Hol – The cradle of the new Caliphate.’

    It was at the sprawling Al-Hol camp where the MoS first learned in September that ISIS supporters were raising money in the UK to help jihadi brides bribe their way to freedom, either to return to their homelands or rejoin the remnants of the terror group scattered across the Middle East.

    One such fundraiser was named as ‘Sumaya Holmes’, who had been smuggled out of the camp and travelled to Turkey. Holmes is said to be the widow of a British convert who died fighting for ISIS in Syria and the wife of a Bosnian jihadi now serving a prison sentence in his home country.

    On her Facebook page, Holmes openly touts for donations, posting photographs of women in burkas holding up placards pleading for help to escape.

    ‘Assalam Alaykum [May peace be upon you all] I am a sister from camp Al-Hol and I need $6,000 [£4,500] so that I can escape from PKK [Kurds]. Please, I ask everyone to help me and donate as much as they can,’ reads one sign.

    Below it, Holmes has written: ‘This is my friend and she is in need of help. She sent me this photo yesterday…Please, even if you can’t help, pass it to those who can donate to her. Jazakallah Khayr [May God reward you].’

    Another picture posted by Holmes shows a woman holding a piece of paper inside a tent. It reads: ‘I am your Muslim sister in Al-Hol camp. I need help from my brothers and sisters to be freed from the hands of the SDF [Syrian Defence Forces]. Allah only knows our situation, and I am in need of support. I need $7,000 [£5,200] to be able to get out with my children.

    ‘You can trust Sumaya Holmes on FB, she is trying to help me raise money needed.’

    Posing as a South London drug dealer who had converted to Islam, a reporter contacted Holmes on Facebook to ask what support he could offer. Holmes immediately asked to communicate on Telegram, an encrypted messaging app used by extremists and criminals due to its high levels of security.

    Holmes initially asked for a donation using the cryptocurrency Bitcoin. When our reporter declined, she suggested making a deposit in an associate’s bank account in Jordan and then hawala, a method of transferring money that leaves no paper trail.

    She sent the address and mobile phone number of a fundraiser based in Britain who she said ran a money exchange that could provide such a service. Again, the undercover journalist refused.

    Holmes then provided details of a man called ‘Anas’ in London who could collect the cash in person. When an offer to donate £4,500 was made, Holmes wrote: ‘Ok akhi [my brother] this amount of money you want to contribute to free 1 sister or its for the sisters in camps?’ The reporter replied, ‘Free one sister,’ and received the response: ‘OK i will see to one sister insha Allah [God willing].’

    Holmes had meanwhile been busy spouting her support for ISIS on her Facebook page. In one post, she described Abdullakh Anzorov, the Chechen who last month beheaded teacher Samuel Paty near Paris, as a ‘hero’, adding: ‘There are no words that can describe my feelings towards him and what he did for our Prophet, peace be upon him. Little Mujahid [jihad warrior], you’re an example to many Inshaallah [God willing] #chechanhero.’

    Back in London, a second undercover reporter arranged on WhatsApp to meet Anas in a residential street in Acton, West London.

    ‘Akh [brother], how shall I bring the cash? In an envelope or what?’ the journalist asked when a time on Friday had been agreed. ‘An envelope, please anytime, but tell me a quarter of an hour before you arrive, please,’ replied Anas.

    In the event, the reporter changed the plan – citing concerns that the police might be watching – and left an A4 brown envelope under gas cylinders at a nearby service station. As it is illegal to hand over money to a suspected terrorist, the envelope contained only a crossword puzzle book. The journalist then informed Anas where he could find the package, attaching a photograph of where he had left it.

    Within moments, as an MoS team looked on, a bearded man wearing a white crash helmet arrived on a silver scooter. He knelt down, dragged out the envelope and smiled before messaging the reporter: ‘File received, let me check the money and tell you.’

    The man was soon back in touch. ‘There are [sic] no money in the envelope, there is only a book. ??? … It seems that you are not serious about your subject.’

    We immediately informed Scotland Yard. Last night, a spokesman said the information was being assessed by counter-terrorism detectives. Confronted yesterday, Anas denied involvement. ‘No, no, I don’t take anything, you are wrong,’ he said before hanging up. He did not answer further calls.

    In a series of messages on Facebook Messenger, Holmes denied involvement. ‘That’s not true, you’re bulls****ing,’ she wrote. ‘Good luck with publishing your lies.’

    With the UK’s terror threat level at ‘severe’, the revelations will reignite concerns about the dangers of ISIS supporters who have returned to the UK or will seek to in future. Estimates suggest about 300 of the 900 Britons who went to Syria to join ISIS are back in the UK.

    Dr Vera Mironova, an expert on ISIS and research fellow at Harvard University, said: ‘To escape from the camps costs about $18,000 [£13,500] and the success of these campaigns shows the sheer amount ISIS are able to fundraise online,’ she said.

    ‘Once the women are smuggled out, it is impossible to monitor them. The women who collect money online are still with ISIS and are trusted and supported by the organisation’s members worldwide. They work with a network of supporters globally.'”

  10. Almost Half of Violent Sex Crimes in Italy Committed By Foreigners (breitbart, Nov 29, 2020)

    “Nearly half of the violent sex attacks in Italy are committed by foreigners, according to data released by the Italian statistics agency ISTAT.

    The data released by the statistics agency states that around 42 per cent of the violent sex crimes against women in Italy are committed by foreigners, with non-European Union citizens representing a significant portion of sex attackers.

    The figures, which represent incidents from 2018, reveal that there were 4,802 violent sex attacks that year and that 2,009 of them involved foreign attackers, newspaper Il Giornale reports.

    The newspaper points out that the proportion of foreign sex attacker is exceptionally high compared to the foreign share of the Italian population, which sits at around 8.6 per cent…”

  11. Greek Police Hunt for Migrant ‘Chain Rapist’ After Attack on 54-year-old (breitbart, Nov 29, 2020)
    https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2020/11/29/greek-police-hunt-for-migrant-chain-rapist-after-attack-on-54-year-old/

    “Greek police in Athens undertook a manhunt this week for a migrant who is said to have attempted to rape a local woman while wrapping a chain around her neck.

    The manhunt comes after the migrant, believed to be possibly Pakistani, approached a local 54-year-old woman in the Kaminia area of the Greek capital and is said to have taken a thick chain and wrapped it around his victim’s neck as he attempted to rape her.

    Local police say they are actively hunting for the suspect, saying that the case is extremely serious and that they want to prevent the migrant from attempting to rape another woman, newspaper Proto Thema reports.

    According to the paper, the woman was inside a local cafe cleaning up after the establishment had closed for the day and the migrant, who was wearing a dark hoodie at the time, jumped on her and wrapped the chain around her neck.

    As the migrant attacker attempted to remove the woman’s clothes, the chain loosened enough for the 54-year-old to grab a nearby object and hit the attacker on the head. The woman then ran outside into the street to call for help as the migrant fled the scene.

    The case comes as police arrested another Pakistani migrant who is alleged to have killed a 29-year-old man in an apartment in Kaminia and brutally beaten two others.

    The arrested migrant is said to have also been the leader of a criminal gang which trafficked contraband cigarettes and drugs on the streets of Athens. Police are still on the hunt for another Pakistani migrant in connection to the murder.

    Indeed, Greece has seen a number of high profile criminal cases involving migrants in recent weeks, including the arrest of a Syrian man in a migrant camp in Athens who is believed to have taken part in atrocities while a member of the Islamic State terrorist group.”

    • I just read a story about the man who shot an OPP officer and I came way thinking this is a tragic story and pathetic sad remarks.
      “And , he seemed to get involved and listen to a group of people who believed in (COVID-19) being a conspiracy, “ referring to her son’s deep admiration for former US president Donald Trump and that leader’s embrace of alt-right views.
      When COVID-19 first hit, he was wearing a mask all the time; then, he just stopped doing it. it seemed he was following that group that felt it was all a conspiracy.”

      His cousin stated he did struggle with alcohol.

      What sloppy reporting by Tom Sasvari. Mr. Sasvari should also take note Donald is still the President of the United States. What a disgraceful, irresponsible twist to a tragic incident.

      Perhaps in the future Mr. Sasvari may write an article about the number of suicides there have been of late. He no doubt would tell us they have nothing to do with COVID-19 – – people losing their jobs, their livelihood.
      or perhaps an article about the Revolutionary group BLM who want to defund the police.

  13. Quebec City police issue 34 tickets at anti-mask protest

    Some participants could be seen shaking hands or kissing each other.

    QUEBEC CITY — Quebec City police hand out 34 tickets related to COVID-19 health regulation violations to protesters outside the National Assembly on Saturday.

    The protest began as a motorized demonstration against the province’s COVID-19 measures on Quebec’s highways that gathered in front of the National Assembly in the early afternoon.

    Videos posted by participants to social media showed many demonstrators did not wear masks or respect physical-distancing measures. Some participants could be seen shaking hands or kissing each other.

    At 7 p.m., Quebec City police said they had ordered the demonstrators to wear masks and respect the distancing measures. About 15 minutes later, police said those who did not comply would receive tickets.

    Police said no arrests were made.

    “We recognize that demonstrating is a democratic exercise and fundamental right,” police said in a statement. “On the other hand, people wishing to exercise this right must respect a two-metre distance and wear a face covering.

    The army has mobilised an elite “information warfare” unit renowned for assisting operations against al-Qaeda and the Taliban to counter online propaganda against vaccines, as Britain prepares to deliver its first injections within days.
    The defence cultural specialist unit was launched in Afghanistan in 2010 and belongs to the army’s 77th Brigade. The secretive unit has often worked side-by-side with psychological operations teams.
    Leaked documents reveal that its soldiers are already monitoring cyberspace for Covid-19 content and analysing how British citizens are being targeted online. It is also gathering evidence of vaccine disinformation from hostile states, including Russia,
    Next month the 77th Brigade will begin an “uplift” of professional and reserve soldiers to join operations. The brigade’s badge bears the same mythical creature used by the Chindits, an Indian army guerrilla warfare force known for its unconventional methods in the Second World War.

  18. Michael Flynn Says Coup Against Trump Still in Progress in First Public Remarks Since Pardon
    By Melanie Sun

    Print

    Retired Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn said there is “still a coup in progress” against President Donald Trump in his first public address since being pardoned by the president.

    Flynn, who also served during the Obama administration as director of the Defense Intelligence Agency and then as Trump’s national security adviser, warned Americans on Saturday that there is currently an “assault” on our way of life that has been going on since the beginning of Trump’s presidency.

    “They’ve upped their game,” Flynn said of certain figures in the Democratic Party, which he said was so “in name only” since its shift “way over on the left.”

    “When they lost in 2016, I think that there was a decision to say, ‘We’re not going to allow this to happen again,’” Flynn said of the Democratic Party’s leadership.

    In Pakistan, Ali Azhar, 45, kidnapped, forcibly converted to Islam, and “married” Arzoo Raja, a 13-year-old Christian girl, on October 13. Despite the fact that sexual intercourse with girls under 16 is statutory rape and carries a minimum prison sentence of 10 years, the High Court of Sindh ruled in favor of the kidnapper on October 27.

  20. New Lawsuit Asks Wisconsin Supreme Court to Declare All Drop-Box Ballots Illegal and Block Certification

    A new lawsuit filed with the Wisconsin Supreme Court seeks to block the state from certifying the election results, arguing that all ballots cast via drop boxes are illegal and should be discarded, and if such ballots cannot be reliably identified for rejection, then the state legislature should nominate its own slate of presidential electors.

    The lawsuit complaint, filed on Nov. 27 on behalf of Wisconsin voter Dean Mueller (pdf), argues that the Plaintiff’s right to a “safe, free, secure and transparent presidential election” was violated “in that his vote has been diluted by the counting of thousands of illegal votes placed in illegal ballot drop boxes across the State of Wisconsin.”

    The suit says over 500 ballot drop boxes were installed in 72 counties in the state in violation of the law, arguing the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) did not have the authority to approve their use. The commission’s endorsement of drop-box use amounted to enacting a new elections law, the suit argues, noting that the U.S. Constitution accords such power only to Congress or state legislatures.

    Attorney Sidney Powell has asked a federal court to urgently order Georgia’s officials to de-certify the Nov. 3 election results and preserve forensic data on the voting machines while the lawyer challenges the integrity of the state’s votes.

    Powell on Friday filed a motion asking for immediate injunctive relief arguing that the plaintiffs would suffer irreparable harm if election officials from Union County were not blocked from wiping forensic data from voting machines and resetting the count back to zero. Union County officials informed the plaintiffs that machines would be reset on Nov. 30.

    Meanwhile, the attorney also argued an injunction to de-certify the election results or to block the transmission of the certification of the state’s election results is necessary in order to preserve the status quo while her case plays out in court.

    “The low costs to Defendants and high potential harm to Plaintiffs make this a case with a substantial net harm that an immediate and emergent injunctive relief can prevent. Therefore, it is respectfully requested that the Court grant Plaintiffs’ Motion,” the motion states (pdf).

    The Pennsylvania Supreme Court on Saturday overturned a lower court’s order blocking election officials from certifying the results of the 2020 election. The court also dismissed the case with prejudice.

    In an unsigned opinion, the state’s top court ruled to reverse Commonwealth Judge Patricia McCullough’s temporary injunction that would have prevented the state from taking further steps to complete the certification of the presidential race.

    The court said the petitioners had failed to file their challenge in a “timely manner,” as they had filed their suit more than one year after the enactment of Act 77—the law central to the case.

    The case at hand—cited as Kelly v. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania—was filed by a group of Republican politicians who argue that Act 77, a law that made voting by mail without an excuse legal in Pennsylvania, violates the state’s constitution.

  24. American Thinker – Did President Trump Spring a Trap on Treasonous Democrats on Election Night?

    “I, DONALD J. TRUMP . . ., find that the ability of persons located, in whole or in substantial part, outside the United States to interfere in or undermine public confidence in United States elections . . . constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security and foreign policy of the United States. … I hereby declare a national emergency to deal with this threat.”

    —President Trump, in his executive order of September 12, 2018, giving the pretext for the blocking of property and money transfers, without prior notification, belonging to persons who have dealt in foreign interference during the 2020 presidential election

    Trump Knew All Along the Democrats Would Cheat

    When President Trump became president in 2017, he knew that the Democrats were hell-bent on removing him from office. The Democrats tried endlessly to find skeletons in Trump’s closet, as part of a Soviet-style harassment campaign, wherein a person, rather than a crime, is investigated. Stalinist Lavrenty Beria would have been proud; it was Beria who said, “Show me the man, and I’ll find you the crime.” The fact that Trump has survived so much character assassination and political scrutiny only goes to show how scrupulously honest Trump has been in his business and other dealings throughout his life.

    Trump has known for a long while that, to finish his part in restoring America’s free republic, he would have to deal with tremendous election fraud in his bid for re-election. In 2016, Trump enjoyed the element of surprise in that his overwhelming popularity was great enough to overcome the systemic fraud set in place to rig the election for Hillary Clinton. So certain were the complicit media of a win for Clinton that they predicted a 95% probability of her winning. But the same blunder — born of Democrat arrogance and overconfidence from years of triumphant cheating — would not occur a second time in 2020. The media would, during Trump’s first term as president, embark on creating the illusion that the most popular president since Ronald Reagan was actually reviled. This Big Lie would be endlessly repeated, in hopes of making enough people believe a loss to Biden was in the cards for Trump.

    Learning How the Sausage Is Made

    In 2018, there was serious election fraud in Florida and in Arizona. Trump’s team observed the cheating and learned from it in preparation for the 2020 presidential election cycle. Prior to the 2018 election, on September 12, Trump issued an “Executive Order on Imposing Certain Sanctions in the Event of Foreign Interference in a United States Election.” The importance of this Executive Order largely escaped notice during the 2018 election cycle, but it would loom ever larger as the 2020 election approached.

    The fact that no major arrests seem to have been made, concerning the election fraud of 2018, indicates that many of the fraudsters may have received plea bargains in exchange for making the next round of electoral crimes so highly visible that the irregularities could not be missed. If arrests had been made back in 2018, the Democrats would simply have brought in new operatives to do their criminal bidding in 2020, which, in the long run, would not have helped President Trump. While this line of reasoning is speculative, to be sure, the actual election fraud perpetrated in 2020 against the president is unmistakable.

    Does Trump Possess Proof of Widespread Cheating in the 2020 Election?

    After the November 3 presidential election of 2020, a news story broke reporting the seizure of important computer servers in Frankfurt, Germany. Though the event is disputed, what occurred, according to the Gateway Pundit, was this: “[a] unit under the command of USEUCOM (i.e., United States European Command) did in fact conduct an operation to take control of computer servers. But these servers belong to the CIA. … Such an operation would have been carried out with US law enforcement present to take custody of the evidence.” The presence of federal agents of the court would guarantee a chain of legal custody for the servers that would render their data admissible before a judge.

    Gina Haspel and Christopher Wray were supposedly not informed of the raid in advance, leaving the CIA and FBI heads necessarily blind to this action and, therefore, unable to interfere. This means that the CIA was certainly the target and that a law enforcement agency unrelated to the FBI, such as the U.S. Marshalls or the Secret Service, was likely used to take control of the evidence. The timely firing of Mark Esper prior to the raid would mean that the oppositional defense secretary was cut off from foreknowledge of the raid and, therefore, would have been unable to disrupt what was going to transpire.

    Biden’s Voter Fraud Was Predictable

    As Bill and Ted may have characterized Biden’s unrealistic vote totals on election night, “strange things are afoot at the Circle K.” But these are strange things Biden himself brought up while speaking to former Obama staffers on Pod Save America on October 24, 2020, saying, “[W]e’re in a situation where we have put together — and you guys did it for our…president Obama’s…administration, before this — we have put together, I think, the most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American politics.” Perhaps it would have been wise for the former vice president to have remained mum and in his basement that day, especially in light of his follow-up comment, while speaking to Michigan voters on November 1, 2020: “I don’t need you to get me elected; I need you once I’m elected.” Taken together, Biden’s comments paint the picture of a candidate with no need of voters to get elected, instead relying on election fraud to win — the same plan, it would seem, that worked for Barack Obama.

    Did Trump Set a Trap for Election Thieves?

    The Millennium Report of November 6, 2020, opens, “Just as the Democrats had 4 years to come up with a plan to steal POTUS 2020, so did Team Trump to foil that convoluted scheme. … Where to set the biggest traps was as easy as pie — Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Georgia.” This idea that Trump set up the Democrats with his executive order and sprang a trap on them on Election Night is definitely within the realm of possibility, given what is known about this creative president.

    It is likely that Trump has known about Dominion Voting Systems for some time but has chosen not to interfere with enemies who were in the process of setting themselves up for their own destruction. Little did the Democrats suspect that their villainous strength — the ability to win elections by cheating — was about to become an eminently indictable weakness. Psalms 141:10 reads, “Let the wicked fall into their own nets, while I pass by in safety.” It would appear likely that this is precisely what President Trump’s motto has been during the presidential election of 2020.

  25. American Thinker – The ‘smartest man in the room’ has joined Sidney Powell’s team

    In her Georgia complaint, Sidney Powell included the declaration of Navid Keshavarz-Nia, an expert witness who stated under oath that there was massive computer fraud in the 2020 election, all of it intended to secure a victory for Joe Biden. Dr. Kershavarz-Nia’s name may not mean a lot to you, but it’s one of the weightiest names in the world when it comes to sniffing out cyber-security problems.

    We know how important Dr. Kershavarz-Nia is because, just two and a half months ago, the New York Times ran one of its Sunday long-form articles about a massive, multi-million-dollar fraud that a talented grifter ran against the American intelligence and military communities. Dr. Kershavarz-Nia is one of the few people who comes off looking good:

    Navid Keshavarz-Nia, those who worked with him said, “was always the smartest person in the room.” In doing cybersecurity and technical counterintelligence work for the C.I.A., N.S.A. and F.B.I., he had spent decades connecting top-secret dots. After several months of working with Mr. Courtney, he began connecting those dots too. He did not like where they led.

    Not only does Dr. Kershavarz-Nia have an innate intelligence, but he’s also got extraordinary academic and practical skills in cyber-fraud detection and analysis. The reason we know about his qualifications is that it takes seven paragraphs for him to list them in the declaration he signed to support the Georgia complaint.

    His qualifications include a B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. in various areas of electrical and computer engineering. In addition, “I have advanced trained from the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), National Security Agency (NSA), DHS office of Intelligence & Analysis (I&A) and Massachusetts Institution of Technology (MIT).”

    Professionally, Dr. Kershavarz-Nia has spent his career as a cyber-security engineer. “My experience,” he attests,” spans 35 years performing technical assessment, mathematical modeling, cyber-attack pattern analysis, and security intelligence[.]” I will not belabor the point. Take it as given that Dr. Kershavarz-Nia may know more about cyber-security than anyone else in America.

    So what does the brilliant Dr. Kershavarz-Nia have to say? This:

    1. Hammer and Scorecard is real, not a hoax (as Democrats allege), and both are used to manipulate election outcomes.

    2. Dominion, ES&S, Scytl, and Smartmatic are all vulnerable to fraud and vote manipulation — and the mainstream media reported on these vulnerabilities in the past.

    3. Dominion has been used in other countries to “forge election results.”

    4. Dominion’s corporate structure is deliberately confusing to hide relationships with Venezuela, China, and Cuba.

    5. Dominion machines are easily hackable.

    6. Dominion memory cards with cryptographic key access to the systems were stolen in 2019.

    Although he had no access to the machines, Dr. Kershavarz has looked at available data about the election and the vote results. Based on that information, he concluded

    1. The counts in the disputed states (Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Arizona, Nevada, and Georgia) show electronic manipulation.

    2. The simultaneous decision in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Nevada, and Georgia to pretend to halt counting votes was unprecedented and demonstrated a coordinated effort to collude toward desired results.

    3. One to two percent of votes were forged in Biden’s favor.

    4. Optical scanners were set to accept unverified, un-validated ballots.

    5. The scanners failed to keep records for audits, an outcome that must have been deliberately programmed.

    6. The stolen cryptographic key, which applied to all voting systems, was used to alter vote counts.

    7. The favorable votes pouring in after hours for Biden could not be accounted for by a Democrat preference for mailed in ballots. They demonstrated manipulation. For example, in Pennsylvania, it was physically impossible to feed 400,000 ballots into the machines within 2–3 hours.

    8. Dominion used Chinese parts, and there’s reason to believe that China, Venezuela, Cuba interfered in the election.

    9. There was a Hammer and Scorecard cyber-attack that altered votes in the battleground states, and then forwarded the results to Scytl servers in Frankfurt, Germany, to avoid detection.

    10. The systems failed to produce any auditable results.

    Based on the above findings, Dr. Keshavarz-Nia concluded with “high confidence that the election 2020 data were altered in all battleground states resulting in a [sic] hundreds of thousands of votes that were cast for President Trump to be transferred [sic] to Vice President Biden.”

    This is going to be tough evidence for Democrats to counter. Back when the naïve Democrats thought Trump would be the one to commit fraud, they held congressional hearings and wrote articles about the voting machines’ vulnerability. And with the New York Times touting Dr. Keshavarz-Nia’s brilliance and his ability to sniff out fraud, they’ll struggle to that he’s not a reliable expert. Things are getting fun.

    A group that received hundreds of millions of dollars from Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg is accused in post-election lawsuits of contributing to constitutional violations in key battleground states.

    The Center for Tech and Civic Life, a national nonprofit based in Illinois, provided funding to over 2,500 election offices across the country to run elections amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Funds were used to pay poll workers, put up ballot drop boxes, and acquire mail-in ballot equipment and supplies.

    More than $6 million was doled out to officials in Fulton County, Georgia, and to five cities in Wisconsin, according to lawsuits filed this month. The funds were sent to facilitate violations of state law, the lawsuits allege.

  29. AMERICAN THINKER – New reports about election manipulation read like a Tom Clancy novel

    On Friday, a retired top Air Force intelligence analyst stated with certainty during an interview that special forces had secured a CIA-run facility in Germany that had computers showing election manipulation. If this report is real, we are witnessing the biggest coup attempt, sabotage, and treason in American history. No matter what, though, because this report is out there and comes from serious people, it deserves serious investigation.

    I have no idea whether this raid happened. Its having taken place, however, is consistent with my ruminations about Trump’s peculiarly-timed shake-up at the Pentagon: Firing defense secretary Mark Esper and replace him with Christopher Miller, a special forces man; moving special forces into their own command, rather than having them function as subsets of other military branches; and firing potentially disloyal members of the civilian Defense Policy Board. These actions indicated that Trump was clearing the decks for something big.

    In this post, I’ll sum up the most recent reports about events in Germany, although without taking any stand as to their veracity because I can’t take a stand. I don’t know enough.

    For several days, rumors have swirled that there was a “military” raid in Germany, either against Scytl (the Spanish company that processes American voting data in a facility in Frankfurt, Germany) or against a CIA station that is also located in Germany. On Friday, those rumors coalesced into an affirmative report about the CIA station in Germany.

    Mike Adams, who writes at Natural News (which I once thought was a health food newsletter, not a conservative internet news outlet), dropped a bombshell, claiming there was a deadly firefight in Frankfurt between special forces and CIA operatives:

    As you know by now, the DoD launched a raid on a CIA-run server farm in Frankfurt, Germany, to secure servers that contain proof of CIA interference with the 2020 election (i.e. backdoor manipulations of election results via Dominion voting machines). But new information is now surfacing that indicates there was a firefight at the server farm facility, involving US Army Special Forces units, engaging with CIA-trained paramilitary units that were flown in from Afghanistan in an emergency effort to defend the facility.

    One CIA officer was killed during the firefight, and he is now being reported across the mainstream media as being “killed in Somalia.” Five US Army soldiers were also killed, and they are being explained away as dying in a “helicopter crash” in Egypt.

    Despite the deaths, the servers were successfully acquired by the DoD, and those servers were turned over to President Trump’s private intelligence group, which is now once again led by Gen. Michael Flynn, recently pardoned and now allowed to process top secret information, since his security clearance has been restored.

    Is it me, or does that sound just like a military-techno thriller? That doesn’t mean, though, that it’s untrue. After all, if I hadn’t lived through the coup attempt against Trump, the tech tyrants’ censorship against conservatives from the president on down, and the general lunacy of 2020, but had instead read all that in a book, I would have pronounced the book too far-fetched.

    Additional corroboration for Adams’ report comes from Lt. General Thomas McInerney, who did an interview with the WVW Broadcast Network. During the interview, he stated (beginning at 41:45) that he too had heard reports about events in Germany.

    In sum, McInerney said that “The Kraken” is the nickname of the 305th military intelligence battalion; that The Kraken identified China, Iran, and Russia as being involved in using the Hammer & Scorecard system to manipulate American votes; that the servers used for this were in a CIA facility in Frankfurt; that special forces raided the facility; and that there were casualties – in other words, exactly what Mike Adams reported.

    I’m being a bit careful about accepting McInerney’s statements at face value. Even recognizing Wikipedia’s leftist bias, it’s clear that McInerney, who had an illustrious military career that included intelligence work, can let his emotions get ahead of his filter when he speaks.

    Having said that, McInerney introduced Americans to the possibility that “Hammer and Scorecard” were used to game the election. While Leftists promptly denounced the program as a “hoax,” Navid Keshavarz-Nia, whom the Sunday New York Times once promoted as “always the smartest person in the room” and who is a renowned intelligence specialist, confirms that it is real.

    In trying to determine whether McInerney was speaking accurately, there’s one more point in his favor: The other person who appeared during that interview was General Michael Flynn, who headed America’s military intelligence operations. Flynn vouched for his “friend” McInerney.

    For those of us sitting in our homes, it’s impossible to tell if we’re witnessing treason or fiction. We know only that the doddering Joe Biden who campaigned from his basement could never garner the most votes in American history.

  31. 29 Nov 2020 At least 110 dead in Nigeria after suspected Boko Haram attack

    Attack took place in village near Maiduguri, with assailants targeting farmers in rice fields
    https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/nov/29/nigeria-attack-boko-haram-farm-workers-killed
    At least 110 people have been killed in an attack on a village in north-east Nigeria blamed on the Boko Haram jihadist group, according to the UN humanitarian coordinator in the country.
    “At least 110 civilians were ruthlessly killed and many others were wounded in this attack,” Edward Kallon said in a statement after initial tolls indicated 43 and then at least 70 dead from the massacre on Saturday by suspected Boko Haram fighters.
    “The incident is the most violent direct attack against innocent civilians this year,” Kallon said, adding: “I call for the perpetrators of this heinous and senseless act to be brought to justice.”

    The attack took place in the village of Koshobe near the main city of Maiduguri, with assailants targeting farmers on rice fields. The Borno state governor, Babagana Umara Zulum, attended the burial on Sunday in the nearby village of Zabarmari of 43 bodies recovered on Saturday, saying the toll could rise after search operations resumed.

    The assailants tied up the agricultural workers and slit their throats, according to a pro-government anti-jihadist militia. The victims were among labourers from Sokoto state in north-west Nigeria, about 1,000km (600 miles) away, who had travelled to the north-east to find work, it said. Six others were wounded in the attack and eight remained missing as of Saturday.
    Kallon cited “reports that several women may have been kidnapped”, and called for their immediate release and return to safety.
    The Nigerian president, Muhammadu Buhari ,condemned the attack, saying: “The entire country has been wounded by these senseless killings.”
    The attack took place as voters went to the polls in long-delayed local elections in Borno state. The polls had been repeatedly postponed because of an increase in attacks by Boko Haram and a rival dissident faction, ISWAP.
    The two groups have been blamed for increasing attacks on loggers, farmers and fishermen, whom they accuse of spying for the army and pro-government militias.

  32. Poll: Only 30% of Saudis in favor of business, sports ties with Israel

    Despite signs of strengthening ties between Jerusalem and Riyadh, a new poll released on Friday shows the vast majority of the Saudi public remains generally opposed to establishing links with the Jewish state.

    According to the survey conducted for the Washington Institute for Near-East Policy think tank, only 30% of Saudis answered “somewhat” or “strongly” agree that “people who want to have business or sports contacts with Israelis should be allowed to do so.…”

    Conversely, 64% of those polled answered “somewhat against” or “totally against” the proposition, while the remaining 6% declared “not knowing” or refused to answer the question.

    Moreover, the poll also showed 40% of those questioned answered “strongly agree” or “somewhat agree” to the question, “Are the Abraham Accords signed between Israel, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain positive?”

    Contrary to earlier reports, Israeli aircraft will NOT have permission to use Saudi airspace. That would’ve reduced flight time for many international destinations by hours.

    The Camel-Driver Kingdom is light-years behind tiny, but sophistocated UAE. It’s not all that stable, either. It desperately needs PTrump’s second term.

    The U.S. news media has spread more fake news further than any fringe bloggers.

    Whether it’s the Trump Collusion Delusion or basic facts about COVID-19, the selectively timed censorship is only fueling the perception of a well-organized political cartel that is hiding something.

  34. Judge Blocks, Then Unblocks Georgia From Wiping or Resetting Election Machines

    A federal judge presiding over a major election lawsuit in Georgia on Nov. 29 issued and then reversed an order directing the state to cease and desist wiping or resetting election machines.

    “Defendants are ordered to maintain the status quo & are temporarily enjoined from wiping or resetting any voting machines in the State of Georgia until further order of the court,” U.S. District Judge Timothy Batten Sr. wrote in an emergency order issued Nov. 29.

    The judge reversed the order not long after, explaining that the defendants aren’t in possession of the machines.

    “Plaintiffs’ request fails because the voting equipment that they seek to impound is in the possession of county election officials. Any injunction the Court issues would extend only to Defendants and those within their control, and Plaintiffs have not demonstrated that county election officials are within Defendants’ control. Defendants cannot serve as a proxy for local election officials against whom the relief should be sought,” the judge wrote.

    The change of course by the judge drew a flabbergasted response from Lin Wood, an attorney associated with the Trump campaign.

  35. Trump Suggests He’ll Appoint ‘Special Prosecutor’

    President Donald Trump said he is considering appointing a special prosecutor to probe former intelligence officials and investigators involved in surveilling his 2016 campaign as well as the Nov. 3 election.

    Trump was asked on Fox Business on Sunday about why U.S. Attorney John Durham, who was appointed by Attorney General William Barr to investigate the origins of the probe last year, hasn’t released his long-awaited report.

    “Before we leave the subject of Durham, I feel like something happened in September. I don’t know what happened, but we were all expecting Durham to come out and A.G. Barr to be aggressive,” Fox Business anchor Maria Bartiromo said, adding, “Will you appoint a special counsel to investigate and to continue the investigating into what took place in the 2016 election? You mentioned Jim Comey and Andrew McCabe not facing accountability—will you appoint a special counsel?” she asked after several questions about election-related fraud cases.

  36. Pennsylvania Supreme Court rejects GOP challenge after judge said it had ‘likelihood to succeed’

    ‘…failure to file their facial constitutional challenge in a timely manner’

    The Pennsylvania Supreme Court struck down a lawsuit late Saturday that challenged the legality of a new state law that allowed voters to obtain an absentee ballot for any reason.

    POLL: Who is the most corrupt?

    What’s the background?

    As TheBlaze reported, Commonwealth Judge Patricia McCullough issued an injunction last Wednesday after Republicans made an emergency request to stop the certification of Pennsylvania’s election results.

    The central claim of the lawsuit was that Act 77, a law passed in Oct. 2019, violated the state constitution by allowing voters to obtain absentee ballots for any reason. The state constitution, on the other hand, specifies only a limited number of reasons for which an absentee ballot may be cast.

    McCullough later issued an opinion on Friday explaining that the petitioners would likely win on the merits of their case.

  37. Dan Greenfield:
    An Illegitimate Election Plunges the Republic into a Crisis

    … The crisis of presidential legitimacy really kicked into gear in 2000. Before that people might hate the president, but the opposing political party wouldn’t insist on his illegitimacy. Afterward every president has been treated as an illegitimate criminal to be opposed and driven out.

    Twenty years later, the Democrat strategy of presidential illegitimacy has brought the country to the brink of civil war. Declaring that President Bush was illegitimate wasn’t just rhetoric. Congressional Democrats fought certification of the election results in 2000 and 2004, and touted impeachment. The Iraq War did not radicalize Democrat opposition to Bush, like the pandemic, it gave the already radicalized Democrats a tangible thing to justify their treason.…

    The Democrats embraced a strategy of delegitimizing elections because they don’t derive their power from the traditional political system of the country, but from subverting it. Everything they did this year and the last four years was aimed at subverting elections and voters. And if the public loses faith in elections, that will make elections that much easier to steal in the future.

    Their endgame is rule by an oligarchy, by the stakeholders and representatives of identity politics victimhood groups, but not by representatives of the electorate of the states of the union.

    That is the fundamental crisis of the republic. The issue is not just one stolen election, but a strategy of delegitimizing elections, shattering representative government, and replacing it with an unelected oligarchy backed by mass propaganda, censorship, and political repression.…
