"Thrones, dominions, principalities, and powers, founded in injustice and wrong, are sure to tremble...": Frederick Douglass on the 2020 Election

"At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide."--Illinois State Rep. Abraham Lincoln, 1838 
"Congratulations on your re-election, Mr. President."

Democrats think if they hate President-Elect Donald J. Trump enough, they are allowed to steal this election. That's what they thought in 2016 when they used the FBI/CIA Police State to overthrow him.

But now, in the throes of their malignant untreated Trump Derangement Syndrome-psychosis, this time they claim the right to overthrow American voters directly.

There is no use in saying "the Joe Biden administration". You may as well speak of the Jeff Davis administration. They both carry the same moral weight and would meet the same moral fate. 

But, in fairness, Jeff Davis actually won his election.

Frederick Douglass, confronting the power-mad Democrats of his day, said "There is no negro problem. The problem is whether the American people have loyalty enough, honor enough, patriotism enough, to live up to their own Constitution."

Similarly, we do not have an election fraud problem. We have a Deep State/Uni-Party/Democrat- problem of dishonoring the Constitution; the American people already did the right thing by re-electing the President in a landslide.

A man who would know, Frederick Douglass:

"The Constitutional framers were peace men; but they preferred revolution to peaceful submission to bondage. They were quiet men; but they did not shrink from agitating against oppression. They showed forbearance; but that they knew its limits. They believed in order; but not in the order of tyranny. With them, nothing was "settled" that was not right. With them, justice, liberty and humanity were "final;" not slavery and oppression.

Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both.

A slave is someone who sits down, and waits for someone to free them.

If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

I am a Republican, a black, dyed in the wool Republican, and I never intend to belong to any other party than the party of freedom and progress.

Liberty is meaningless where the right to utter one's thoughts and opinions has ceased to exist. That, of all rights, is the dread of tyrants. It is the right which they first of all strike down. They know its power. Thrones, dominions, principalities, and powers, founded in injustice and wrong, are sure to tremble, if men are allowed to reason... Equally clear is the right to hear. To suppress free speech is a double wrong. It violates the rights of the hearer as well as those of the speaker.

In a composite Nation like ours...there should be, as before the Law, no rich, no poor, no high, no low, no black, no white, but one country, one citizenship equal rights and a common destiny for all. A government that cannot or does not protect the humblest citizen in his right to life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness, should be reformed or overthrown, without delay.

For it is not light that is needed, but fire; it is not the gentle shower, but thunder. We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake. The feeling in the nation must be quickened, the conscience of the nation must be roused, the propriety of the nation must be startled, the hypocrisy of the nation must be exposed: and its crimes against God and man must be denounced.

A man's rights rest in three boxes: the ballot box, the jury box, and the cartridge box.

Power and those in control concede nothing ... without a demand. They never have and never will... Each and every one of us must keep demanding, must keep fighting, must keep thundering, must keep plowing, must keep on keeping things struggling, must speak out and speak up until justice is served because where there is no justice there is no peace."

"They're playing with fire again, son."

Modern-Day Dred Scot--UPDATES:
"Ware County, Ga has broken the Dominion algorithm: Using sequestered Dominion Equipment, Ware County ran a equal number of Trump votes and Biden votes through the Tabulator and the Tabulator reported a 26% lead for Biden.".......

The Georgia Secretary of State told the counties what their results were instead of the counties telling the State? Are you kidding me right now? No wonder the mad rush to wipe the machines. And the GOP chairman is blocking the testimony. General Sherman is looking like a prophet right now.

"Phil Waldron on @newsmax: it’s not true that Dominion voting machines were disconnected from the Internet. A witness in Georgia testified that she contacted Dominion HQ in Denver over a messed up machine on Election Day & Dominion took over. They re-set the machine remotely."

"Though Alito originally called for response arguments from the Commonwealth to be filed by 4 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 9th, the case docket was changed Sunday morning to move that deadline up to Tuesday, Dec. 8, by 9 a.m. The change is critical. Pennsylvania’s members of the electoral college are due to meet at noon on Dec. 14th in Harrisburg to cast their votes for president. As Law&Crime has previously reported, and as Kelly’s arguments point out, federal election law sets a so-called “safe harbor” deadline which requires controversies “concerning the appointment of all or any of the electors . . . by judicial or other methods or procedures” to be determined “at least six days before the time fixed for the meeting of the electors.” Alito’s original Dec. 9th deadline failed to take that window into account. His new deadline does."
