UPDATE: SEVENTEEN STATES HAVE JOINED TEXAS’ LAWSUIT: SUPREME COURT HAS PUT THE CASE ON THE DOCKET

legal votes cartoonFirst off, Democrats continue to be incapable of understanding Supreme Court actions – the SCOTUS denied the INJUNCTION in the Pennsylvania case BUT THE CASE ITSELF IS PROCEEDING, SO IGNORE DEMOCRAT CLAIMS THAT IT’S OVER.

And in another case – the Texas lawsuit regarding the unconstitutional way Democrat vote fraud affected election outcomes – that case has been put on the Supreme Court docket AND as of this writing EIGHT STATES HAVE JOINED TEXAS IN THE SUIT (links below) – Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi, South Carolina and South Dakota. (UPDATE: THANK YOU TO MARK1 – IT IS NOW EIGHT STATES PLUS TEXAS – I left out Louisiana.) Hopefully even more will show some courage and join the suit so we can RESIST the Democrat vote fraud.

UPDATE: NOW UP TO SEVENTEEN STATES HAVE JOINED WITH AMICUS BRIEFS: The states joining the amicus brief include Missouri, Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, and West Virginia. Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich also announced that his state was asking the Supreme Court to allow Arizona to file a brief, calling the issue of election integrity important and asking the court to decide the case quickly.

Up in the air ...UP IN THE AIR AND DOWN IN THE SEA (1863): ANCIENT SCIENCE FICTION – Scientific experimenter Victor Volans devises a passenger balloon which lets him explore two Lost Worlds on islands in the Pacific Ocean. Next he devises underwater exploration techniques which let him recover sunken treasures off Australia and Ceylon (Sri Lanka) while fighting off deep sea monsters. Click HERE.

DEMOCTRAT PRIMARY SEASON PREVIEWED THE RIGGED 2020 ELECTION – With hindsight, the many, many irregularities and “technical glitches” in the Democrats’ primaries and caucuses – which conveniently robbed Bernie Sanders again – proved to be a dry run for the vote fraud in the actual November election. Democrats apparently used the chaos of those primaries to work out the bugs in their “Computer-programmable election results” method. Click HERE.

PRESIDENT TRUMP ON THE MOUNDS OF EVIDENCE REGARDING VOTE FRAUD

STOP THE STEAL SITE.      PROTECT THE  VOTE SITE.   JOE CHEATED SITE

Trump is like jfk

One by assassination, the other by vote fraud?

De facto Third Party President Donald Trump addressed the nation about the massive evidence of vote fraud here in 2020. He also outlined the only fair way of proceeding in a case like this, but like John F Kennedy before him, Trump is battling the notoriously corrupt political “gangsters” in both of America’s major political parties. Will he prevail or will his enemies make him a JFK-sized martyr?

The speech is in the video below, but for some updates on the assorted ongoing legal battles click HERE.

BEST OF 2020: JANUARY

As always, December is the ideal time for retrospectives of the past 12 months:

2020 texas gladiators poster2020 TEXAS GLADIATORS – January 1st of this year saw the publication of the movie review I’d been planning since I started Balladeer’s Blog back in 2010! My favorite bad/ weird post-apocalypse movie reviewed on New Year’s Day of the year in which it was set. How close to reality were its predictions for the future? Nowhere NEAR close but that’s part of the fun of course.

This Italian ripoff of Mad Max delivers futuristic Texas Rangers, mutants, evil villains, deadly mercenaries and Italian extras as fake Native Americans who live in absurd post-nuke teepees. It’s ideal if you love legendarily bad movies. HERE.

TWENTY GREAT ITEMS FOR THE POOR AND WORKING CLASS – A score of terrific news items for the poor and the working class to kick off 2020. HERE.

Sabre 1978KILLRAVEN, SABRE AND THE SLOW FADE OF AN ENDANGERED SPECIES – My review of the post-apocalyptic adventures of Killraven and Sabre in the year 2020 as told from the 1970s.

I also examined the way writer Don McGregor incorporated unused elements of his canceled Killraven series into his independent Sabre graphic novel. Killraven fought for freedom from Earth’s alien conquerors. Sabre fought for freedom from a human dictatorship which arose in the aftermath of disasters involving poverty, disease, terrorist attacks and nuclear catastrophes. Read it HERE.  

TWENTY MORE FAILED PREDICTIONS FROM PSYCHICS – Remember when the Battle of Armageddon was fought in the year 2000? Or the way a woman was elected U.S. President in 1990? Or the way we eliminated air pollution? You don’t? Well that’s because none of those things happened. To laugh at similar predictions click HERE.

log of the flying fishTHE LOG OF THE FLYING FISH (1887): ANCIENT SCIENCE FICTION – My review of the 1887 novel about The Flying Fish, a craft capable of flying and serving as a submarine.

The vessel’s inventor and crew have adventures around the world including discovering a prehistoric oasis at the North Pole, hunting unicorns and a variety of other escapades. Click HERE.  Continue reading →

DEMOCRATS AT LAST BARRED FROM DESTROYING VOTE FRAUD EVIDENCE IN GEORGIA

STOP THE STEAL SITE.      PROTECT THE  VOTE SITE.   JOE CHEATED SITE

Trump is Serpico### SEE THREE UPDATES BELOW ###     

As the chaotic fallout from the forever-tainted 2020 election continues, a series of contradictory court orders in Georgia at first accommodated Democrat desires to wipe clean computer evidence of their vote fraud, then blocked it, then accommodated it again, then blocked it again. Hilarious! I don’t ever again want anyone to try telling me that America’s political corruption isn’t beyond doubt. Below are links to the ongoing Georgia storyline and others:

UPDATE: Michigan’s Antrim County has been proven to be won by President Trump after correcting a computer “mistake” which gave thousands of his votes to Biden. HOW AMAZING THAT ALL THESE “TECHNICAL GLITCHES” THAT HAVE BEEN EXPOSED FAVORED BIDEN. Those votes, like thousands of others, have now been credited to Trump. The effort to stop Biden from stealing the election continues.

#### UPDATE: TWITTER HAS SUSPENDED THE ACCOUNT OF AZ VOTE FRAUD WITNESS BOBBY PITON TO TRY TO MUZZLE HIS TESTIMONY. JACK DORSEY AND HIS ILK CONTINUE TO BE ABSOLUTE GARBAGE. 

UPDATE: Arizona rep issues call to withhold the state’s Electoral Votes from Biden.

TRUMP MARCH BUS TOUR FOR ELECTION INTEGRITY STARTS NOVEMBER 29th

vote fraud in 2020

*** See NEW item below   Independent Voter Site Balladeer’s Blog notes the upcoming Trump March Bus Tour for Election Integrity. Things get rolling in Florida this Sunday November 29th and will wrap up in Washington DC.

trump vs goliathWhile de facto Third Party President Trump’s legal challenges continue to play out, it’s a great way to highlight the clear vote fraud in the forever-tainted 2020 election.

Many people want to just hide their heads in the sand like ostriches, acting like Montag’s Wife by mindlessly consuming only the media outlets pushing the narrative permitted by Big Tech fascists like Jack Dorsey. Sharyl Attkisson has a great story about these cowardly people HERE. 

(And how disgusting are some of the latest labels that Twitter, Facebook and their ilk inflict on items they don’t like: “Accurate but misleading.” … “Accurate but lacking in context.” Always imposed on just ONE side of the issues, too – the anti-establishment side.)

##### AND REMEMBER, AL GORE DID NOT CONCEDE UNTIL DECEMBER 13th, 2000. WE ARE STILL NOT AT THAT DATE YET. #####

For some of the latest stories regarding the mounting – and already overwhelming – evidence of vote fraud see the many links below:

*** NEW: There was a Trump team win AND a Trump team loss in PA in a separate case. The Democrats’ media outlets only reported the loss. The win – a judge blocking certification of the vote pending further hearings. Again, a separate case from the one linked below.

A THANKSGIVING TALE FROM THE REVOLUTIONARY WAR

HAPPY THANKSGIVING FROM BALLADEER’S BLOG! 

truro-massTwo thousand fishermen from Cape Cod had gone off to enlist in the Continental Army, and in their absence the British had repeatedly landed raiding parties to harass the citizens.

Every man, woman and child on the Cape hated the soldiers and sailors of King George and would do anything to work them harm. When the Somerset was wrecked off Truro in 1778 the crew were helped ashore, but they were immediately marched to prison.

It was November – the night before Thanksgiving Day in fact – and ugly weather caused a British three-decker warship to yaw wildly and drift toward land with a broken tiller. No warning signal was raised on the bluffs; not a hand was stirred to rescue. The New Englanders who saw the accident watched with sullen satisfaction.

Ezekiel and Josiah Breeze – father and son – stood at the door of their cottage and watched the warship’s peril until three lights twinkling faintly through the gray of driving snow were all that showed where the enemy lay, straining at her cables and tossing on a wrathful sea.

They stood long in silence, but at last the boy Josiah said “I’m going to help the ship.”

“If you stir from here to help King George’s men, you’re no son of mine,” said Ezekiel. Continue reading →

MORE TRUMP COURT WINS AS ELECTION DRAMA PLAYS ON

Stop the Steal signDe facto Third Party President Donald Trump, the hero of the working class and the poor against America’s corrupt political system, just picked up a few more First Downs on his desperation drive down the field with time running out in the 4th Quarter. A Judge has blocked final certification of Pennsylvania’s results pending a further hearing on Friday. (link below) 

In Nevada a similar judicial action handed Trump another chance to present evidence regarding the already infamous levels of vote fraud in the tainted 2020 election. (link below) PLUS, in New York’s 22nd Congressional District, final results of that House race are on hold as well, over fraud-friendly “mail-in” ballots being filled out in the name of dead people. (link below) This country’s already well-known political corruption is being exposed even more with each passing day.

UPDATE: Privileged white male one-percenter and Techno Fascist Jack Dorsey’s Twitter has banned the account of Doug Mastriano, the Pennsylvania State Senator who organized the Gettysburg Election Integrity Hearing. Dorsey and his ilk were elected by nobody but they are appointing themselves judges of what the rest of us are allowed to discuss and hear about. They are garbage. Absolute garbage.

TRUMP: A POLITICAL JANUS LIKE THEODORE ROOSEVELT

puck joseph keppler

Here at Balladeer’s Blog I’ve long made clear my fascination with the political humor magazine Puck (1871-1918). Puck political cartoons – especially from the covers – are still much sought-after and I own a few myself.

The magazine started out as a German language publication targeted at new arrivals from Europe and the cartoons stood out early on. There is no language barrier to satirical political cartoons, so even Americans who spoke no German could follow the editorial drift of those humorous illustrations. In 1877 Puck began publishing both English AND German language editions.

Here’s a cartoon from its pro-Theodore Roosevelt heyday depicting the wildly different opinions of the bombastic, “rock the boat of political corruption” Teddy Roosevelt. President Trump is a lot like T.R. and his cousin F.D.R. – hated by corrupt career politicians but loved by the working class and the poor. Like Trump, Theodore Roosevelt was at odds with the loathsome Republican Party establishment – think of vermin like Mitt Romney and the Bush Family.   

theodore roosevelt like donald trump

Finally the paper shortage during World War One brought about the end of this iconoclastic magazine.
