I have been commenting on the ongoing challenges to the presidential election. While I have not seen evidence of systemic voter fraud, there are hundreds of affidavits alleging localized fraud, including cases of deceased persons voting. The challenges should be heard and the evidence should be examined. However, the most worrisome response came out of Michigan this week where Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel’s Office of Public Information threatened a website, Big League Politics, with criminal prosecution if it did not take down a video of alleged voting fraud. The video may indeed be misleading or false. However, the threat of criminal prosecution by the Michigan Attorney General’s office is a chilling escalation of the crackdown on free speech in this country and the calls for censorship on the Internet.
We have been discussing the calls from top Democrats for increased private censorship on social media and the Internet. President-elect Joe Biden has himself called for such censorship, including blocking President Donald Trump’s criticism of mail-in voting. Recently, Bill Russo, a deputy communications director on Biden’s campaign press team, tweeted that Facebook “is shredding the fabric of our democracy” by allowing such views to be shared freely.
The calls mirror the trend in Europe where countries like France, Germany, and England have criminalized speech with ever expanding examples of prohibited expressions and views.
The Cease and Desist letter instructs the site to remove all posts, links, and anything similar immediately which correspond with #LeakDetroit.” Assistant Attorney General Danielle Hagaman-Clark states that “failure to comply will result in criminal prosecution.” There is no citation for the penal code provision that makes such an allegation or posting a crime, a standard element in such notice letters.
The letter refers to false information about how poll workers counted challenged votes prior to 2020 and whether challenged ballots could be taken out of the official count. Again, the claims could well be misleading or false, but I fail to see the ability of Nessel to criminalize such assertions. Political campaigns are often replete with exaggerated claims on both sides.
As have previously discussed how the Supreme Court in cases like United States v. Alvarez has repeatedly found such criminalization of alleged speech to be unconstitutional. The position reminds me of the English view that speaking ill of the government must be prohibited. As the Court held in Alvarez:
The theory of our Constitution is “that the best test of truth is the power of the thought to get itself accepted in the competition of the market,” Abrams v. United States, 250 U. S. 616, 630 (1919) (Holmes, J., dissenting). The First Amendment itself ensures the right to respond to speech we do not like, and for good reason. Freedom of speech and thought flows not from the beneficence of the state but from the inalienable rights of the person. And suppression of speech by the government can make exposure of falsity more difficult, not less so. Society has the right and civic duty to engage in open, dynamic, rational discourse. These ends are not well served when the government seeks to orchestrate public discussion through content-based mandates.
Justice Breyer noted in his concurrence in Alvarez that our constitutional protections comport with “the common understanding that some false statements are inevitable if there is to be an open and vigorous expression of views in public and private conversation, expression the First Amendment seeks to guarantee.” Likewise, in New York Times v. Sullivan, the Court noted that “[the] erroneous statement is inevitable in free debate.”.
Lord Chief Justice John Holt, in a 1704 sedition trial, said it was absurd that speakers and writers “should not be called to account for possessing the people with an ill-opinion of the government, no government can subsist. For it is very necessary for all governments that the people should have a good opinion of it.”
The calls for censorship and criminalization of speech have become a rallying cry for liberals in the United States. Even academics now embrace speech codes and censorship. The erosion of free speech on social media and the Internet includes calls from leading Democratic leaders for years to implement private censorship of political speech, a view supported by academics who have declared that “China was right” about censorship. The concerns over Nessel’s threat are magnified by the fact that the allegation challenges the results of the elections favoring her own party and political allies. If such a posting is a crime, what would stop Nessel from prosecuting the New York Times or Fox News for such videos or alleged whistleblower evidence?
The threat of criminal prosecution should be immediately withdrawn by Nessel and her office.
You mention President elect Biden? That is far from confirmed, so your reporting is misleading and abhorrent. You should know better!
I wholeheartedly agree.
Justice Alito’s rather political speech at the Federalist Society tonight (starts ~15:38 in):
America is now no better than communist China, North Korea, Cuba, the former USSR, oligarchical Russia, every Banana Republic and the Kingdoms of Tyrannical Monarchs around the world.
The election tampering and election corruption by democrats is base, abject and contemptible.
The actions of the corrupt democrats is wholly unacceptable and far beyond the pale.

Who are the stakeholders in Dominion Voting Systems?
Former federal prosecutor Sidney Powell said in a Fox News interview that Democrats had invested in the use of Dominion Voting Systems to commit “fraud” on elections.
“They have invested in it for their own reasons and are using it to commit this fraud to steal votes. I think they’ve even stolen them from other Democrats in their own party who should be outraged about this also,” Powell said.
https://freepressers.com/articles/who-are-the-stakeholders-in-dominion-voting-systems
Who are Trump’s creditors?
Dominion voting machines changed Trump votes into Biden votes. Creditors have nothing to do with election fraud except if perhaps they are owners of Dominion.
I don’t believe another person, at least one that thinks, would come up with your type of answer.
The Dominion systems were victimized. There were switched votes from Trump to Biden and lots of lost votes too. Not to mention the voter fraud wit no voter verification.
Ah, the Soros connection!
Pens, pencils, sharpies should be nowhere near ballots being counted!
Professor,
Joe Biden is not the President Elect yet no matter what the MSM say, choose your words carefully and correctly. You know better. Other than that the article is excellent. The bias against the President is palpable and disgusting. What ever the outcome is, it must be fair. What’s right is right. The process and actions are either in bounds or out of bounds. It’s that simple.
Only after the state legislature ok the results
Off subject, but what ever happened to Durham and his big investigation? Just another meticulous coverup? What is going on with Hunter and his apparent abuses?
Seems there are still a lot of loose parts to the national jig saw puzzle.
What happens if Biden is indicted before the election is certified?
How can an election be certified if, as alleged, the Chinese have been tampering with our votes? First they give us Covid then they give us Biden.
What is Judge Sullivan doing? Clipping his toenails?
What to do when we get the answers?
What crime would Joe Biden be indicted for?
Start with money laundering.
Any reputable forensic accountant will obtain the death penalty, slam dunk, for egregious treason and corruption subsequently.
Quid pro quo for starters!!!
Quid pro quo often isn’t a crime. Why do you think it was illegal quid pro quo?
Do you recall the Biden moment – bragging about results that he got in the Ukraine?
Yes, I remember. That’s totally legal. He did it on behalf of the US, Congress knew about it at the time and there was bipartisan support, the international community knew and supported it.
William “Mr. Deep Deep State” Barr, John “Dudley Do-Right” Durham, John “Who Dat” Huber, Christopher “Mr. 7th Floor” Wray et al. are all dutiful soldiers of the Deep Deep State.
America will NEVER obtain justice from these functionaries of the Deep Deep State Department of Corruption, formerly known as the Department of Justice of the United States of America.
The U.S. Department of Corruption exist to enforce the Communist Manifesto and the executive orders of General Secretary Xi Jinping in Beijing, the Dear Leader of Global Communism.
The Deep Deep State requested the release of COVID-19, the coronavirus, by China in a U.S. presidential election year as a last resort, understanding that the democrats were facing a certain, historic, landslide victory by President Donald J. Trump in November.
Never was the Deep Deep State going to prosecute any of the various components of the Obama Coup D’etat in America.
The Deep Deep State conducted the Obama Coup D’etat in America.
You are probably correct about some, but not all, of the names on your list.

Clozapine is an antipsychotic drug of last resort but in your case nothing else will butch you up.
Take it or be daffy forever 😜
clozapine (dibenzodiazepine antipsychotic) is mediated through antagonism of the dopamine type 2 (D2) and serotonin type 2A (5-HT2A) receptors. In addition, it acts as an antagonist at alpha-adrenergic, histamine H1, cholinergic, and other dopaminergic and serotonergic receptors
Yep. A traitor with no honor; contemptible.

These Deep Deep State communists are hilarious; the Keystone Kops!
LBJ did the same thing with Jackie O. in attendance on the plane out of Dallas, he brought a bought judge on board and had him issue an inane and incoherent oath.
Of course, no oath was necessary or appropriate (Jackie had blood all over her).
The VP had been sworn with his President proximate to inauguration.
The mainstream media latched onto it rather quickly this time around.
Someone commented, I think the Professor (?) did, that we will know on December 14th who the next President will be. Not necessarily – which I think is what the Trump litigation teams are hoping for. If Trump pulls out AZ and GA, and SCOTUS tosses PA into limbo, under Bush v. Gore (2000) SCOTUS will not allow the matter to go past Dec. 14th under the Constitution. It’s stare decisis now (Bush v. Gore, 2000). So, on Dec. 14th, neither Trump nor Biden would have the requisite 270 electoral votes. So, under the Constitution, it will be decided in the House. That will take place after Dec. 14th.
The thing itself speaks – What is the truth?

Voter Fraud declared in PA.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Pa. appellate court sides with Trump in fight over ID deadlines for voters
A Pennsylvania appellate court handed President Donald Trump’s campaign a minor victory Thursday, barring counties from including in their final vote tallies a small pool of mail ballots from people who had failed to provide required ID by a Monday deadline.
In a two-page order, a Commonwealth Court judge struck down a decision by the Wolf administration to give voters more time, post-election, to fulfill the ID requirement.
Though state law only requires first-time voters to show ID at the polls, all voters who applied to vote by mail had to be validated their identification against state records by Nov. 9.
Two days before the election, Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar pushed that date back by three days, citing a court decision earlier this year that allowed late-arriving mail ballots to be counted as long as they had been mailed by Nov. 3 and received within three days of that date.
In her order Thursday, Commonwealth Court President Judge Mary Hannah Leavitt ruled that Boockvar had no authority to do that.
Iowa Democrat Congressional candidate questions election results!!
🤣🤣🤣
Breitbart:
Democrat congressional candidate Rita Hart is requesting a full recount in all 24 counties that make up Iowa’s Second District.
“With so much at stake in this election and such a slim margin separating the candidates, Iowans deserve to know categorically that their ballots have been accurately counted,” Hart’s campaign manager, Zach Meunier, announced Thursday, according to the Des Moines Register.
“Over the last several days, multiple consequential errors have materialized in this race that have serious implications for the district’s future representation,” he added.
That isn’t fraud.
Add to that Maricopa County Arizona where more cheating occurred. 10,400 votes separate the President from Biden. There will be a recount. The cheating done by Democrats might win the day for them but they are a disgrace to a free people.
So,WHO WILL DO THE CENSORING? THE DA’S in one party, then DA’s from the other party?? One sure way to gain ABSOLUTE CONTROL of the citizens, IS FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO SILENCE ALL DISSENTING SPEECH!!!
Professor – there is not going to be a second chance here. You must be shocked yourself at this tyranny coming into it’s own. The spirit in it not good. I bless you for all you do in peace and justice.

Trumpsters, beware.
“WASHINGTON (AP) — As President Donald Trump’s chances of reelection dwindled last week, his campaign began blasting out a nonstop stream of emails and text messages that led to a website raising money for an “election defense fund” to contest the outcome.
Like many hallmarks of the Trump presidency, the messages contained all-caps lettering and blatant mistruths about voter fraud during the Nov. 3 election. They also mislead supporters about where the money would go.
Trump has promised to contest President-elect Joe Biden’s win in court. But the fine print indicates much of the money donated to support that effort since Election Day has instead paid down campaign debt, replenished the Republican National Committee and, more recently, helped get Save America, a new political action committee Trump founded, off the ground……
The unusual way the Trump campaign is divvying up the contributions has drawn scrutiny from election watchdogs, who say Trump and his family are poised to financially benefit from the arrangement..
“This is a slush fund. That’s the bottom line,” said Paul S. Ryan, a longtime campaign finance attorney with the good government group Common Cause. “Trump may just continue to string out this meritless litigation in order to fleece his own supporters of their money and use it in the coming years to pad his own lifestyle while teasing a 2024 candidacy.”..”

AP ? Associated press? Same boat with CNN and wapo. Move along , not to be trusted
If you want lying to a be a crime and I’m sure you do (for GOP only, not Dems), then of course you must also require by law politicians to answer critical questions under penalty of felony perjury. Such as Biden answering a long list of hard questions Re. his and his son’s dealings with China where money changed hands from China to the crack addict son Hunter.
Nice try, quoting the AP and other communist propaganda mills. Maybe you could quote from the Daily Werker and Peoples’ Forward while you’re at it, you commie.
You’ve got an awfully distorted view of reality to think that the Associated Press is a communist propaganda mill.
No way… he doesn’t want our money. He has been president voluntarily.. not even getting paid. So, im sorry! He isnt interested in lining his pockets.
Trump lines his pockets continually with taxpayer funds. He visits his properties on average every 3 days, and every visit transfers money from the US government to the Trump organization (via room rentals, golf cart rentals, etc.) We’d be much better off if he kept his salary and refused to use his businesses.

Good to know that Trump is finally trying to support the USPS.
Trump tweets: ““REPORT: DOMINION DELETED 2.7 MILLION TRUMP VOTES NATIONWIDE. DATA ANALYSIS FINDS 221,000 PENNSYLVANIA VOTES SWITCHED FROM PRESIDENT TRUMP TO BIDEN. 941,000 TRUMP VOTES DELETED. STATES USING DOMINION VOTING SYSTEMS SWITCHED 435,000 VOTES FROM TRUMP TO BIDEN.”
https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1326926226888544256
Twitter disputes the tweet with a warning link:
“With ballot counting continuing and the presidential race being called for Joe Biden, experts and officials say there has been no evidence of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 US election. The election process is secure and voter fraud of any type is incredibly rare according to The Associated Press and Reuters. Officials and experts warn that the most interference in US elections, whether from foreign or domestic players, comes in the form of misinformation campaigns, many of which are intended to create distrust in the US’s electoral process.”
https://twitter.com/i/events/1308626736066617344
I would prefer a link to an independent election observers’ report that definitively explains and discredits the Dominion “hoax,” if that is the kind of evidence Twitter has at its disposal. As it stands, should Twitter’s generic warning be withdrawn here?
The person who makes the claim is the one with the burden of proof. Trump made the initial claim, and he is the one with the burden of proof. He has not presented evidence for it, and given his extensive lying, there’s no reason to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Shifting the burden onto Twitter to prove Trump wrong is a fallacy known as “misplaced burden”:
https://www.iep.utm.edu/fallacy/#MisplacedBurden
Twitter’s alert on Trump’s tweet only says “This claim about election fraud is disputed,” which is obviously true.
Sorry, turns out that the IEP has changed the URL for their fallacies page. The current URL is now https://iep.utm.edu/xy/#MisplacedBurden
Thanks, got it.
Turley tweets: “The burden remains on the Trump camp obviously.”
Your link on misplaced burden doesn’t seem to work, CTHD, but I very much like your thinking.
It sounds like you agree and are satisfied with Twitter’s generic response to the US President’s tweet. I am not sure I disagree. I am still sorting it out. Who has the first burden of proof in this case, the US President or the AP? Should tweets from the AP be tagged with “This claim about election results is disputed,” because this is also obviously true?
In other words, I am just as concerned about competing arguments from authority:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_authority
Right around the time of the President’s nerve-wracking Dominion tweet, Karl Rove said the election won’t be overturned:
“To prevail,” Rove wrote, Trump would need to “prove systemic fraud, with illegal votes in the tens of thousands. There is no evidence of that so far. Unless some emerges quickly, the President’s chances in court will decline precipitously when states start certifying results.”
https://www.cnn.com/2020/11/11/politics/karl-rove-2020-election-biden-trump/index.html
Many senior Republicans have called for President-elect Biden and VP-elect Harris to start receiving classified briefings. They are ready for the GSA to approve the Transition.
New US COVID-19 cases peaked at nearly 145,000 today. One of Biden’s advisors is recommending a strict national lockdown of 4-6 weeks with economic relief. We need more leadership from the WH in response to this latest surge in cases.
Yes, I corrected the URL in my 6:20pm comment. Here’s the correct URL again:
https://iep.utm.edu/xy/#MisplacedBurden
I’m not sure what you mean by “I am just as concerned about competing arguments from authority.” Concerned about what?
Arguments from authority can be fallacious but often aren’t: https://iep.utm.edu/xy/#AppealtoAuthority (also see the quote at iep.utm.edu/xy/#H5)
FWIW, I sometimes edit Wikipedia pages, and although many pages have useful / generally correct information and there are lots of good people contributing as editors, WP articles aren’t always reliable, and it’s often better to use them as a source for references rather than to rely on the main text.
Trump’s handling of the pandemic has been atrocious. The number of new cases and new hospitalizations are at all-time highs, as is the rate of increase for new cases:
twitter.com/COVID19Tracking/status/1327044583755280388
“Arguments from authority can be fallacious but often aren’t.”
Exactly. Pick your most trusted national security authority:
1) The AP
2) The US President
3) Twitter
I reject the premise that I’m limited to choosing among those three.
Who says he does not have proof? CNN? I doubt they are aware of his play book. Either way we will know soon enough. You could write an encyclopedia on political lies by all politicians so name calling serves no purpose. Or do we only count selective lies.
Is this sufficiently independent for you?

Joint Statement from Elections Infrastructure Government Coordinating Council & the Election Infrastructure Sector Coordinating Executive Committees
WASHINGTON – The members of Election Infrastructure Government Coordinating Council (GCC) Executive Committee – Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) Assistant Director Bob Kolasky, U.S. Election Assistance Commission Chair Benjamin Hovland, National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS) President Maggie Toulouse Oliver, National Association of State Election Directors (NASED) President Lori Augino, and Escambia County (Florida) Supervisor of Elections David Stafford – and the members of the Election Infrastructure Sector Coordinating Council (SCC) – Chair Brian Hancock (Unisyn Voting Solutions), Vice Chair Sam Derheimer (Hart InterCivic), Chris Wlaschin (Election Systems & Software), Ericka Haas (Electronic Registration Information Center), and Maria Bianchi (Democracy Works) – released the following statement:
“The November 3rd election was the most secure in American history. Right now, across the country, election officials are reviewing and double checking the entire election process prior to finalizing the result.
“When states have close elections, many will recount ballots. All of the states with close results in the 2020 presidential race have paper records of each vote, allowing the ability to go back and count each ballot if necessary. This is an added benefit for security and resilience. This process allows for the identification and correction of any mistakes or errors. There is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised.
“Other security measures like pre-election testing, state certification of voting equipment, and the U.S. Election Assistance Commission’s (EAC) certification of voting equipment help to build additional confidence in the voting systems used in 2020.
“While we know there are many unfounded claims and opportunities for misinformation about the process of our elections, we can assure you we have the utmost confidence in the security and integrity of our elections, and you should too. When you have questions, turn to elections officials as trusted voices as they administer elections.”
Not entirely independent enough for me, but it’s a great link, very helpful. Thanks. I like multiple data points. Perhaps Twitter should have referenced that, not the AP or Reuters.
This 4 November 2020 report from the OSCE International Election Observation Mission is also a good reference:
https://www.osce.org/files/f/documents/9/6/469437.pdf
“Baseless allegations of systematic deficiencies, notably by the incumbent president, including on election night, harm public trust in democratic institutions.”
“On several occasions, President Trump created an impression of refusing to commit to a peaceful transfer of power, claiming that the electoral process was systematically rigged, particularly in relation to postal voting, without presenting any substantial evidence of systematic malfeasance and contradicting election officials at all levels. Such statements by an incumbent president weaken public confidence in state institutions and were perceived by many as increasing the potential for politically motivated violence after the elections.”
Dear Commit to Honest Discussion:
On behalf of the Party, please allow me to commend you for reposting the above link for those who may have missed it earlier. Despite the efforts of elements who seek to divide us, this has been the most seamless and transparent election in Party history. Redirecting readers to Approved Information Sources such as the Government Coordinating Council and the Sector Coordinating Executive Committees is an effective educational tool for disseminating Truth.

James O’Keefe of Project Veritas discovered that federal agent Russell Strasser was posting on Twitter under the alias, “Jeff Streeter.” Under the handle @titansfanjeff, Strasser made many anti-Trump comments.
You aren’t Svelaz, as is clear from your avatar and the content of your comment. Why do you troll in this way?
Committ, I suspect that’s why you took a hiatus from this blog: the same, boring troll keeps changing names.
Said troll is the classic Republican dirty trickster. A Roger Stone wannabe who thinks being a deceptive d1ckhead is the height of cool.
I was unable to post comments for a while. I assumed that I’d been banned, but after taking a break for a while decided to test it again and my comment went through. I don’t know whether it was a temporary ban or only a tech glitch.
This is how Democrat AG’s roll, the process is the punishment and, maybe, they’ll convict you, too, on sham evidence. The goal is to bankrupt people. They do this because there are no consequences for them. It’s time for citizens to provide the consequences to these scumbags.
Pitchforks or water guns? Which leaves no evidence?
Withdrawing the threats is nowhere near far enough. This is a nakedly political act by a Democratic AG to chill free speech for partisan purposes. She should immediately resign from her position as AG and be held accountable for her actions.
