Federal Lawsuit Filed Challenging Michigan Election
ALFC, November 16, 2020:
Late yesterday, the American Freedom Law Center, along with associated counsel acting as special counsel for the Thomas More Society based in Chicago, filed a federal civil rights lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Michigan, challenging the conduct of the 2020 general election in Michigan on behalf of two Michigan voters.
Story continues below advertisementThe lawsuit sets forth numerous allegations of election malfeasance at the TCF Center in Detroit and throughout Wayne County, the most populous county in the State, and it demonstrates that Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s “vote by mail” scheme violated the U.S. Constitution by directly violating the absentee ballot law passed by the legislature, thereby precipitating fraud at the TCF Center and throughout the State.
As alleged in the lawsuit:“In Michigan, the Secretary of State, Jocelyn Benson, a registered Democrat, acting unilaterally and without legislative approval, flooded the electoral process for the 2020 general election with absentee ballots. This was accomplished by the Secretary of State’s unilateral decision to send absentee ballot request forms to every household in Michigan with a registered voter (regardless of whether the voter was still alive or actually resided at that address) and to non-registered voters who were temporarily living in the State. Furthermore, the Secretary of State permitted online requests for absentee ballots without signature verification, thereby allowing for fraud in the process of obtaining an absentee ballot. These actions were not approved or authorized by the State legislature, and for good reason. Predictably, this flood of unauthorized, absentee ballots ensured the dilution of lawful votes and precipitated an unfair and dishonest 2020 general election, as the evidence adduced from the TCF Center in Detroit, Michigan proves.”The lawsuit names as defendants Jocelyn Benson in her official capacity as Secretary of State and Jeannette Bradshaw in her official capacity as Chair of the Board of State Canvassers for Michigan.AFLC Co-Founder and Senior Counsel Robert Muise commented:“Fair and honest elections are the lifeblood of our constitutional republic. American citizens, including those of us who reside in Michigan, demand and deserve honest, fair, and transparent elections. We demand and deserve a process that ensures that our legal votes will count and that illegal votes will not. The Constitution requires it, and for good reason, as our lawsuit demonstrates. Indeed, the evidence shows that the election in Michigan was not honest, fair, and transparent. Consequently, we are asking a federal court to do something about it. At the end of the day, this case seeks to restore the purity and integrity of elections in Michigan so that ‘We the people’ can have confidence in their outcome and thus confidence that those who govern are doing so legitimately.”The lawsuit alleges violation of the Due Process Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, both of which protect a private citizen’s legal vote from being debased or diluted by arbitrary and disparate treatment, such as permitting illegal votes that discount proper votes. As stated by the U.S. Supreme Court, “Every voter in a federal . . . election, whether he votes for a candidate with little chance of winning or for one with little chance of losing, has a right under the Constitution to have his vote fairly counted, without its being distorted by fraudulently cast votes.”The lawsuit also challenges the Secretary of State’s “vote by mail” scheme as a violation of Article II, section 1, clause 2 of the U.S. Constitution, which grants the State legislature the sole authority for the election process.There are a few exceptional cases in which the U.S. Constitution imposes a duty or confers a power on a particular branch of a State’s government. Article II, section 1, clause 2 is one of them. It provides that “[e]ach State shall appoint, in such Manner as the Legislature thereof may direct,” electors for President and Vice President.As the U.S. Supreme Court explained, this provision of the Constitution “convey[s] the broadest power of determination” and “leaves it to the legislature exclusively to define the method” of appointment. A significant departure from the legislative scheme for appointing Presidential electors, such as the Secretary of State’s “vote by mail” absentee ballot scheme, runs afoul of this constitutional mandate.The lawsuit is asking the Court to enjoin the Secretary of State and the Board of State Canvassers from finally certifying the election results and declaring winners of the 2020 general election until an independent audit to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the election is performed. To perform the audit, the plaintiffs are requesting the appointment of a special master to investigate all claims of fraud in Wayne County, specifically including claims of fraud at the TCF Center, and to verify and certify the legality of all absentee ballots ordered through the Secretary of State’s absentee ballot scheme.

Yes- but how does it operationalize?
I guess- but don’t know- that a federal court could invalidate an election result, but it I think American courts are very reluctant to take that step. Might it lead to a constitutional crisis in which POTUS would be none other than Nancy Pelosi?

You raise pertinent questions and issues. I don’t know the answers. Maybe some other commenters will shed light. For me it is about pursuing all avenues seeking remedy and mitigation.

That has been suggested, but under these circumstaances would be difficult. If the election is not decided the presidency does not go to the Speaker of the House. If both the President and vice President are bopped off, that’s the case. But not here.

Chuck, I believe you are wrong. If nobody gets a majority of the electoral college, then I think the House chooses POTUS. It has happened in the 19th century, but possibly has changed via a constitutional amendment.

Correct – in event of an undecided election in the electoral college the house chooses. My understanding is that the house election is by one vote per state, instead of one vote per representative.
If that is true and it goes that far, Trump has the largest state-by-state count, despite the distribution of representatives to the most highly populated states.
What I don’t have time or inclination to research is whether the red state reps are consistently aligned with the president, and if not, how many we’d lose.
It’ll be quite a show – if you haven’t looked at Kayleigh McEnany’s recent interview with Mark Levin, or Sidney Powell’s recent seething restraint on Fox, those are interesting prelims to a main even that we’ll see soon.
Watch and pray – and get your popcorn.

Dershowitz accused Biden campaign of McCarthyism. Bad comparison Alan. McCarthy was right. Biden campaign is all about fraud. Apparently Alan confuses anti-Communism for Communism since Communism is deeply embedded in the Democrat party.

I guess that makes sense. McCarthy strongly opposed free speech (and even thoughtcrimes), just like most conservatives today.

That’s ok. Your mental disorder doesn’t allow you to process normally like everyone else on here. That’s why you see everything backwards. It must be so hard trying to keep up with all the smart people when you know you’ll just never cut it. Keep trying sport. Maybe in 50 or 60 years, Fauci will have some new psych drug that will help you out of your condition. Cheers!

But, don’t you sometimes feel a pang of pity for something as abjectly pathetic as she is? Not frequently, but occassionally, I feel guilty making her HUMILIATE herself.
She’s such a poor, poor pathetic little thing.

The biggest crookery has been the Dominion electric voting machines, and their ilk. I think Rudy’s on top of that, though. I hope all of it is uncovered.

The only way to restore the purity and integrity of elections is to get rid of the machines. Paper ballots have worked just fine since forever. It worked! So why in the hell did anyone want to “fix” it?

French anonQ just revealed Obama’s real name: Barry Parks.
He’s Rosa Parks nephew.
Why have the media fled that revelation for 12 years?
Everybody knew Obama was hiding who he was.

Obama’s name is Barry Parks, but it’s not that simple.
It’s a full technicolor, surround-sound show.
Barry Parks (Obama) is in fact related to the whole Southern Establishment, Bush, Clinton, Ross Perot, Dick Cheney, Sarah Palin, Hunt etc…
Furthermore those people are all hiding who Obama is. Why?
Because the KKK that lynched Obama’s real father Jim T. Parks, are in fact kin of his.
This is all available by Obama’s cousin from Kansas Linda Joy Adams, Google it.
Listen, say you have a Fox News interview w Obama tomorrow.
If he’s Barry Parks, imagine the interview.
Obama walks in and for example Hannity says: “Hello President Obama. I hear now your real name is in fact Barry Parks.”
Obama can’t just walk away. He can’t disappear and surface in the Bahamas or an island in the Pacific. At the end of the interview, the cops will cuff him and tell him a judge wants to talk to him about using a fake identity to access the secret nuclear codes. That’s just a logical way of thinking, right?
Yep, Obama’s in deep crap.

Libs are excellent at ‘fixing things ‘ that aren’t broken, you may have noticed. The machines worked perfectly for them, since they enhance cheating.

I love it. Same needs to be done in all contested States. A factual legal result would then be forthcoming. Plus the extremely vile Dominion fraud must be fully examined. That should be way easier than physical evidence since virtual data always leaves a trail (its in the 0’s and 1’s). Plus they can simply use “Find” for the offending vote switching markers in suspected computer code. Present overheads of offending code in Court. Independent computer experts 1-10 say in Court, YUP those lines of code will switch votes from Trump to Biden. I hope Court throws the book at these greasy sleazy CompSci idiots for hatching such an evil plan as perverting a Democratic election.

Dominion has already engaged in covering up all connection with Eric Coomer, the security guy that changed the ballot tabulations. The whole process is now so screwed up, they can’t know for sure if re-doing it with the machines will be honest or not. Hand counts may work, but trusting people is now a thing of the past.

MAJOR CRACKDOWN GOING ON!
The Conservative Tree House https://theconservativetreehouse.com/2020/11/16/update-from-wordpress-automattic-on-treehouse-deplatforming/#more-203911 is being kicked off WordPress/Automatic hosting services. Never once have they ever advocated violence or supported it. It’s a great website and even Lou Dobbs has referenced it.
Update From WordPress/Automattic on Treehouse Deplatforming…
Posted on November 16, 2020
By Sundance
Many people are now becoming aware of a shift in the political effort to shut down speech. The Conservative Treehouse has been notified our “content” is not permissible, and after ten years we are kicked-out of WordPress/Automatic hosting services. Some people asked if we would inquire about the specific ‘terms of service‘ that we violated, so I did.
Here is the direct response from WordPress/Automattic (rec’d 6:48pm ET this evening):
?w=768&h=554
No specific violation is noted. Below is the “Prohibited Content under section 5”
?w=768&h=540
We are working on relocation now. However, many people are rightly alarmed by this move by WordPress/Automattic because over the course of ten years there has never been any previous contact about any violation of any terms. Nor is any specific violation noted in the reply.
Tomorrow we will find a new host.

I don’t know if other people feel the same but I’m still actually in shock from watching the brazen-ness of these freaks. Despite the fact that it’s been like nearly 2 weeks now. Putting up cardboard over the windows in broad “daylight”…. and just generally being the fascist scum they are.
Yet the media consider it a non-story…
Growing up in the UK, we only used to see these kind of horrendous shenanigans coming from places like Africa or South America – this kind of utter farce. And we would all laugh at those countries for having this happen.
Yet now, it is the USA that is being turned into a tinpot dictatorship by the ISIS-loving scum who call themselves “Democrats”… and the media (both here and in the US) refuses to talk about it.
I still really can’t believe this utter crap is actually happening, it makes me sick to my stomach.

Revealing Obamas real name is good not bad.
It’ll make the BLM’s skin crawl.
It’ll jail Obama for life.
Isn’t that very good news or what?
