According to attorney Marc Elias, Hillary’s campaign “quietly t(ook) a number of steps in the last two weeks to rule in or out any possibility of outside interference in the vote tally in these critical battleground states” - referring to Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
They “uncovered (no) actionable evidence of hacking or outside attempts to alter the voting technology.”
Yet Elias repeated the Big Lie, claiming Russian hacking of DNC emails and interfering in America’s electoral process, despite no credible evidence suggesting it, just baseless accusations - part sour grapes, part Russia bashing.
He said Hillary’s campaign will participate in Wisconsin’s recount, lawyers representing her in court, if needed. If the process is repeated in Michigan and Pennsylvania, her representatives will also be involved.

Introduction
Leftwing academics, writers and journalists have written tendentious articles where they manage to transform reactionary political leaders into working class heroes and present their dreadful policies as progressive advances.
Recently, leftist pundits throughout US and Latin America have plagued the reading public with gross distortions of historical events contributing, in their own way, to the demise of the left and the rise of the right.
The leading international figures in this deceptive leftwing punditry include the famous Noam Chomsky, once eulogized by the New York Times (NYT) as ‘America’s most important public intellectual’. Such effusion is not surprising: Professor Chomsky and the NYT both supported the presidential candidacy of the warmongering Hillary Clinton, the perpetrator of seven wars that uprooted 20 million people from Syria, Libya, Afghanistan, Iraq, Yemen, sub-Sahara Africa (Is this any different from Stalin in the ‘30’s?) and author/supporter of numerous coups and attempted ‘regime changes’ in Brazil, Honduras, Venezuela, Paraguay and Ukraine.

Her campaign to recount votes in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin exposed her phony progressive credentials - showing she’s for Hillary, not peace, equity and justice.
Who ever heard of a progressive supporting a war goddess, Wall Street tool, racketeer, perjurer - dirty business as usual, not beneficial social change?
She’s Sanders with a gender difference, otherwise just the same - a con artist, Hillary supporter, indifferent about using her medical skills to help heal a sick nation, how I mistakenly described her political mission.
She double-crossed me, fooled me, suckered me, betrayed me and 1.2 million + voters supporting her. She changed me from ally to adversary, never again backing her for any public position.

Donald Trump caught the world by surprise when he emerged victorious at the U.S. elections, but his stay at the White House could be short-lived, according to a professor who has correctly predicted presidential poll outcomes for the last 30 years.
Allan Lichtman, a political historian at the American University, told CNBC's "Squawk Box" on Thursday that Trump's history of playing "fast and loose with the law," his unpredictability as well as lack of public service experience could lead to an impeachment.
He added the prognostication was based on a 'gut feeling' rather than the scientific methods he employed in predicting Trump's election victory.
Since winning the election last week, Trump, along with his Vice President-elect Mike Pence, has been trying to fill out key posts in his Cabinet. Reports, however, hinted at the strain his transition team was under in setting up a new administration.
Trump also faced backlash when he appointed Steve Bannon, the former president of Breitbart News, as his chief strategist and senior counselor.
"Trump is a wild card," Lichtman said, adding Bannon's appointment would be a litmus test for the President-elect to either jettison him or stick with him no matter how controversial he became.
Though Republicans have won the majority in Congress, Lichtman pointed out they did not have a "filibuster-proof majority" in the Senate. Trump's appointment of controversial figures like Bannon and his unpredictability could make it more difficult for the Republicans to work with Democrats and other members of the Congress, he said.
"Republicans love control and they would love to see Mike Pence as president because he is predictable and controllable - a down-the-pipe standard conservative Republican."
Lichtman's predictions on presidential election outcomes were based on history. Appearing on CNBC in October, Lichtman explained he looked at 13 "keys" he developed by studying every election from 1860 to 1980 and then applied it to the next eight elections.
The way his method worked was if six or more "keys" went against the incumbent party at the White House, its candidate would likely lose the election. In the October interview, Lichtman said there were six "keys" that were against the Democratic party.
To-date, only two presidents have been involved in formal impeachment trials by the Senate - Andrew Johnson in 1868 and Bill Clinton in 1999.

His meeting at the White House and recent appearance on 60 minutes has convinced me someone nailed him with a mind control drug he is completely unaware of.
There are specialized drugs that do not make you high, that do not change your moods, but they make you extremely susceptible to manipulation, and can also cause you to talk about your greatest secrets openly. I am almost certain Trump has been nailed by this type of drug already. These types of drugs are put in food and will be completely un noticed. They would be delivered by people who have earned your trust that should not have your trust, such as, in Trump’s case, the secret service.
Melania and Trump’s kids would notice a change that Trump himself would not notice. They would notice the change even if they were also drugged. Everyone who is legitimate who is surrounding Trump will need to keep a close eye on him for behavior changes. These changes would be, as I have said – openness to external manipulation and an inability to retain personal secrets. These drugs are only owned by intelligence agencies of the top states. Trump had better watch out, I think he might have already been nailed. They take about two months to wear off, it won’t wear off in a day.
If anyone can get this warning through, it really needs to be sent through – Trump should not accept any food or drink from anyone. Recently he visited the white house, there is a good chance he got nailed during that visit.
This is something I know of only because I have an intelligence background – this is not something Trump would automatically know about. These drugs cause ABSOLUTELY NO physical side effects, no high feeling, no sleepiness, NOTHING OTHER than making people open to suggestion and unable to retain secrets. It will be practically impossible for someone who has been nailed by them to know it, unless someone told them their behavior changed.

A centerpiece of the Clinton presidential campaign was Russian interference with the 2016 United States election. From charges that Russians hacked the Democratic National Committee email server to horror show claims that the Russians would somehow hack election voting machines, Clinton and her cadre were clear about the threat posed by Russia. In addition, there were charges that Trump had ties to Russian oligarchs as a source for business funding. Worst of all, there was the general claim that somehow Donald Trump was under the sway of Russian President Vladimir Putin, who rose to power through the Russian intelligence apparatus known as the KGB.
The U.S. mainstream media supported the Clinton campaign charges. In late September, ABC investigative reporters ran a detailed article about the “hundreds of millions of dollar” in investments Trump has received from Russian businessmen. The Daily Beast ran a comprehensive four part series on consecutive days starting on November 3. The series outlined Trump’s alleged role as a useful idiot for Putin and business entaglements exposing him to Russian influence (parts one, two, three, and four). The series culminated with a description of former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manefort’s ties to the deposed pro Russian president of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovich.

Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton wins, almost by a landslide. [Wrong]
Donald J. Trump will not challenge the results. [Right]
The 2016 Election, unlike most other elections in the past, was not rigged.[Right]2016 was NOT a Time for Some Campaignin' [Right]
According to the Washington Post, there was only a cash bar at the Trump’s party, with mixed drinks and wine at $13, and beer between $10-11. Also at the event, Apprentice star and Trump surrogate Omarosa Manigault reportedly told journalists that the businessman wrote an acceptance and concession speech, reported the Post.
The $34 Million Bigly Winner
You will recall that Donald promised to give his campaign $100 million. On the Friday, before the news broke of the Comey F.B.I. investigation being reopened, he was forced to wire his campaign $10 million. [3]
Major GOP donors gave up on Trump weeks ago, they are spending in an attempt to save the GOP down-ballot wave. Donald had about $16 million on hand and is $2 million in debt, according to filings to the Federal Election Commission through October 19. As of October 28th he had given a total of $66,108,073.64 in cash and in-kind contributions.
The Friday morning wire was a desperate act because in the month of October he only put $31,000 into his campaign and that was in "in-kind" spending, i.e., staff salaries and rent.
Do the math he is short $34 million to keep his campaign donation promise.
Notice that he is violating one of the fundamental pillars of his platform. The Trump pledge to self-fund is the thing that he claims sets him the political establishment, including of course Hillary, whom he claims is getting money from the special interests.
November , 6:09 AM and 8:42 AM
November 6 before Comey made his announcement clearing the way for a Clinton win on Tuesday, I received two emails from Donald, one at 6:09 AM the other at 8:42 AM below:

I recently unveiled my “Contract with the American Voter” – my plan for my first 100 days in office to end the rigged system, revitalize our economy and protect our country and our people. I've included details below.
I will bring honesty and accountability to Washington, so we can get big things done and hold those who've ripped us off accountable. But I need your help!
Believe me, the career politicians and their cronies didn't think it could ever happen...and they are scared.
They will do anything to defeat me on Tuesday – and that's why I need you on my campaign team!
So JOIN TEAM TRUMP today with an emergency contribution. Help me win this historic race and get to work for you in the White House! [4]
[End of Emails received November 6]
What is important about these emails is that it is obvious that Donald is reneging on his promise to self-fund his campaign. At 6:09 AM this morning, thanks to Mr. Comey, he was allegedly winning the race .
So just two days before the election why isn't he wiring $34 million into his campaign?
Donald cheats the undocumented workers that built his towers and scams the low-income students who enrolled in Trump University, he didn't think he would win, so why waste $34 million? That makes no cents. [5]

On the eve of arguably the most important election in US history, most Americans don’t understand the stakes involved.
One issue dwarfs all others in importance - possible humanity threatening nuclear war under Hillary v. Trump’s sense enough to shun the unthinkable. One or the other will become America’s 45th president.
Sadly, it won’t be Jill Stein, an anti-war, anti-corporate predation, ecosane true progressive, her agenda promising governance of, by and for everyone equitably.
She’s the only presidential candidate warning about the risk of Hillary starting nuclear war with Russia. She doesn’t sleep well at night, she said, thinking about the ominous possibility.

WASHINGTON, November 6, 2016 — The F.B.I. director, James B. Comey, told Congress on Sunday that he had seen no evidence in a recently discovered trove of emails to change his conclusion that Hillary Clinton should face no charges over her handling of classified information.
Republicans accused Mr. Comey of being under political pressure to throw in the Clinton towel, and Democrats are complaining that Comey had no right to infer she was guilty without reading the emails.
Finally Comey's vague, brief announcement last Friday makes sense.
Why would Mr. Comey needlessly plunge the F.B.I. into the politics of a presidential election, with no clear way out?
William F. Buckley Jr.'s National Review article by Andrew McCarthy, Obama’s Conflict Tanked the Clinton E-mail Investigation — As Predicted claims Obama told the F.B.I. to back off because Barack was worried about going to jail for "the reckless mishandling of classified information." I could hardly stop laughing but when I did and read the entire article to my surprise the National Review confirms what anyone who actually researches the email issue will discover: private email servers are common in the State Department and Hillary is so technically challenged that she can only use a Blackberry. [1]
Comey needlessly plunged the F.B.I. into chaos because Hillary Rodham Clinton, like her husband before her, was deemed untrustworthy by the Puppet Masters. You can be sure Bill wasn't obeying the Globalists when inexplicably he gets impeached for getting a blow job. Reminds me of Richard Nixon. Nixon wasn't impeached for lying about breaking into the Watergate. Nixon, I am pretty sure, was taken down for going to China but I still haven't figured what Bill did to upset them, but it must have been serious.
Obviously Hillary made a deal with her Puppet Master to get the F.B.I. to back off, and she should be commended for her good sense. Anything she did to keep Donald J. Trump from winning the election and getting a chance to Nuke the world is an act of patriotism.
The Puppet Masters are losing control and can no longer rely on their servants to do their bidding. Our next project is to manipulate the system so that more puppets jump ship.
Hillary is in a position to help us in the future. Donald, a clumsy liar, proud tax dodger and serial sex creep, a man so stupid that he sabotaged all of his chances to be the next POTUS, was never an option. [2]
[From Trump makes it easy to vote for Her]
Trump, who in a sane universe would have no chance of winning because of basically every scummy thing he has said and done — from his rip-off “university” to his contorted tax returns, to his leering boast about grabbing women’s genitals.
