GOP will take majority in the House, push out Pelosi as speaker

It's taking a while, but Reps are gradually overcoming the many Dem vote steals across the nation.


Kevin McCarthy declares GOP will take majority in the House, push out Pelosi as speaker

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy declared victory on Tuesday saying that Republicans had secured enough seats to flip control of the U.S. House of Representatives.

"I want to thank the millions of supporters across this country," said McCarthy, R-Calif. "It is clear we are going to take the House back."

McCarthy told a throng of supporters at a victory party in Washington, D.C., that the feat was possible because of the diverse array of candidates Republicans had recruited this cycle.

The big question

Will Republicans have the guts to get us out of the war with Ukraine?


Will Republicans Have The Courage To End Welfare For Ukraine?

With polls suggesting a Republican victory in the House and Senate today, the mother of all battles seems to be brewing between old-guard Republican leadership which favors endless money for Ukraine and a populist/conservative wave that is increasingly skeptical. GOP voters are trending strongly away from Ukraine support. Who will win? Also today: what to think while voting, and finally...a new US base in Syria!

BTW, Georgia's senate race will have another run-off on Dec 6. If won by the Democrats, all house bills will be stopped in the Senate.

Even if the GOP will have the Senate majority, and ALL GOP congressmen and congresswomen would support such a bill, they cannot override the president's veto power.

The Lend Lease will go on uninterrupted.

And Ukraine can expect an extra large package for Christmas.

Also, with a majority of just a few seats, Kevin will need to get all the normal republicans and the trumptards to agree for him to have any power....good luck with that.

A lot of the Trumplicans lost their seats or didn't win, at least. Hopefully that's a message to the ones still in congress that he's a sinking ship and they should abandon ship immediately. MAGA is dead.

Neo-cons probably won't sign onto more Ukraine support. Their constituents won't like it.

Right wing media is done with Trump:

What? Are they trying to get Reps to relax, or what? Lol. The listing below is small. There is a whole lot more at the site.


NBC News projects Republicans will win House

Arizonans are becoming extremely upset with the way the voting for governor went in AZ. The demand for re-done elections is growing, with hand-counts rather than voting machine counts.




Calls grow in Arizona for new election after Kari Lake “loses” in extended recount following widespread polling station problems on Election Day

Arizona Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake is not the only one who believes the extensive problems at polling stations around Phoenix on Election Day earlier this month are grounds for holding a new election after her alleged ‘loss’ to Democratic opponent Katie Hobbs, who did not campaign much, refused to debate Lake, and, as secretary of state, led the office in charge of balloting.

According to a press release from the group U.S. Election Integrity Plan, an “open letter authored by Arizona citizens calling for a new election continues to be circulated throughout Arizona. Citizens are demanding the new election is run without electronic voting equipment and mail-in ballots. Arizona citizens are proving to be a persistent, powerful force.”

The press release adds:

Key excerpts from the letter clearly express the seriousness and commitment of the Arizona citizens, “We the people of Arizona deserve better, and we demand better. We demand transparent, free, and fair state elections.”  There is no confusing the citizens stance on the ground, “Elections belong to the People. Stolen elections are illegitimate.” The letter closes with a promise, “[citizens] will peacefully descend on Arizona until the new election is conducted.”

The release goes on to state that Arizonans have taken it upon themselves to begin sharing the letter via email, and by calling officials and posting it to social media in order to put additional pressure on “officials, legislators, candidates, and law enforcement.”

One deadline has already passed for officials to stand with concerned Arizonans who support a new election, but the objective is to convince officials to act before the election for governor is officially certified — by Hobbs’ office, no less.

“It appears the citizens of Arizona are on a roll and getting a boost in shaping a viable solution. Kari Lake and Charlie Kirk have both shown support for a new election specifically in Maricopa County,” the press release stated, referencing Turning Point USA founder and CEO Kirk.

Arizonans are sick of election deniers, which is why democrats won Governor, Senate and Secretary of State elections.  

Kari Lake Claims Her Voters Were Disenfranchised. Her Voters Tell a Different Story. (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/19/us/politics/maricopa-voter-complaints.html)

When he stepped inside a Phoenix polling place on the morning of Election Day on the way to work, Kevin Bembry was told that the tabulation machines were not functioning properly and he might want to vote somewhere else.

“I’ve never had that happen before,” Mr. Bembry, 57, a security officer, said in a video later posted online.

His testimony was one of many circulated on social media by activist groups, right-wing media outlets and Kari Lake, the Republican candidate for governor, whose campaign posted Mr. Bembry’s video along with several others on Thursday.

But a crucial element has been missing so far in all of these accounts: clear claims that any eligible voters in Maricopa County were actually denied the chance to vote.

The video the campaign circulated of Mr. Bembry, for instance, was an edited version of a longer video posted on the site Rumble. In the full video, he states that, despite the inconvenience, he cast his ballot at a nearby polling site. “I was able to vote — no waiting, no misreads of the tabulation machines, nothing,” he says.

Looks like Arizonans are sick of being played by their Arizona government, especially in elections.


2nd Arizona county delays certifying election, for now

A second Republican-controlled Arizona county on Monday delayed certifying the results of this month's election as a protest against voting issues in Maricopa County that some GOP officials have blamed for their losses in top races including the contest for governor.

The delay came as Maricopa, the state's most populous county, finished counting the last remaining ballots and the state attorney general demanded that officials there explain Election Day problems some voters experienced.

Arizona voters elected a Democratic governor, Katie Hobbs, and gave Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly a full six-year term in office. But the race for attorney general was heading to a mandatory recount once the election is certified by all 15 counties and the secretary of state. Democrat Kris Mayes ended up ahead of Republican Abraham Hamadeh by just 510 votes on Monday after Maricopa County counted about 1,200 remaining ballots. Nearly 2.6 million Arizonans voted.

The number of people against the election fraud in Arizona is growing. Will this attitude roll over to other States? Will it reach the Federal elections? Actually, it already has started.


More Arizona counties refuse to certify results following a scandal-filled election

Once more, Arizona has become ground zero for election problems after Democrats, as usual, have moved to game the system so that more of their candidates win in a suddenly ‘purple’ state.

More counties have begun to voice doubts that the election in Maricopa County was legitimate after hundreds of citizens and poll workers have complained to the elections board about several problems at dozens of polling stations, including malfunctioning tabulators, printers with no ink, and lengthy lines lasting hours.

“There are only 15 counties in the state of Arizona. So far, Mohave, Conchise, and Yavapai counties have refused to certify the suspect election. Gila county may be following suit,” 100 Percent Fed Up reported this week.

Top Real America’s Voice podcaster Steve Bannon spoke on Tuesday with Caroline Wren, a senior advisor for Trump-backed GOP gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake, who supposedly ‘lost’ to Arizona Democratic Secretary of State Katie Hobbs (the state’s top election official, by the way) following a boatload of problems on Election Day.

“We are facing an existential crisis as a party. Our Grassroots supporters do not have faith in the elections. Nor should they. And if we don’t fight now, then when?” Wren said.
