Editor’s note: Miss some of this week’s news, public policy, and politics? Stay current, keep up, and get out ahead of the pack with Liberty Nation’s Sunday News Round-up. Yeehaw!
Russia hacked the vote. No? Okay, but his money is dirty, right? Tax evasion? How about pure insanity or sexual harassment? Infidelity with a porn star!? When nothing seems to stick to Teflon Don, what is left for the Dems? Well, throwing more stuff at him to see if it will stick, apparently.
The New York attorney general is investigating one of the Trump organization's real estate holdings, and Eric Trump will have to testify no later than October 7. Why the deadline? Because it can't keep the president from getting re-elected if it's after election day, of course!
Liberty Nation’s Sarah Cowgill explains:
Digging for Dirt
“Eric Trump is a vital component of a national campaign in the final sprint to the finish line. The AG cannot wait several weeks? Thousands of documents will essentially occupy Mr. Trump for days – if not weeks – in a deposition. Pulling these kinds of shenanigans have the unintended consequences of making the Democrats barreling toward Election Day look not only pathetic but desperate as well."
What to Watch For
Expect the Democrats behind this investigation to make as big a spectacle of this as possible. The goal is to make Donald Trump look so bad, he can't possibly be re-elected. After so many failed attempts, that's a tall order - but rest assured they plan to fill it.Giving New Meaning to Absentee Ballots
If tarnishing Trump's reputation won't send him packing, perhaps some good old-fashioned election meddling will. As Liberty Nation's Kelli Ballard recently reported, some Trump-friendly ballots are simply being tossed. Talk about giving new meaning to the term absentee ballot! As Kelli explained:"With the 2020 presidential election looming on the horizon, politicians are digging through their duffle bags looking for extra ammunition against their opponents. Meanwhile, COVID-19 has prompted – or provided an excuse for – lawmakers to make significant changes to the way Americans vote, less than a couple of months away from the big day. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump has repeatedly warned about turning to mail-in voting as the primary means of determining our next commander in chief. It seems he wasn’t just full of hot air as the Democrats would have you believe."Of nine discarded ballots found so far in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, seven were for Trump. The other two? We don't know, as they had already been resealed in their envelopes by county election staff before the FBI got involved!
What to Watch for
Discarded ballots, folks voting absentee then showing up in person, support for Democrats from the dearly departed - these stories aren't hoaxes, and they aren't done, either. It may take us months to sort out who actually wins the 2020 election, and you can just about guarantee it will be a tale rife with corruption.Washington Whispers & Other Juicy Tidbits
Be on the lookout for:- Well, he did it. Trump nominated Judge Amy Coney Barrett to replace Ruth Bader Ginsburg on the Supreme Court. Not only did he pick another woman, but he also picked one with three names! What can the Dems and their pals in the media do about this? Don't worry, they're on it. According to Politico, Trump is starting a brawl over the future of the Supreme Court. NBC has us covered with "What Trump Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett means for Roe v. Wade." And The Houston Chronicle came right out and said it: "Trump’s far-right pick will destroy court’s [sic] balance — and imperil its legitimacy."
