And don't forget GA:

Georgia Judge Gives VOTER GA the Right to Inspect Fulton County Election Ballots

Henry County Judge Brian Amero on Monday conditionally granted members of a Georgia-based coalition the right to unseal ballots from last November’s presidential election in Fulton County.

Members of that group, VOTER GA, may now inspect those ballots for evidence of voter fraud.

Amero’s decision “is almost unprecedented in Georgia history,” said VOTER GA spokesman Garland Favorito.

Former U.S. President Donald Trump lost Georgia’s electoral votes to current U.S. President Joe Biden.

The Georgia Star News asked Favorito if he and his hundreds of volunteers might find enough evidence of voter fraud in Fulton County to tip the Georgia election in favor of former U.S. President Donald Trump?

“That’s possible,” Favorito said.

Favorito said Fulton County officials have long resisted VOTER GA’s attempts to inspect their ballots.

“We have sworn affidavits from several poll managers who say they handled counterfeit ballots during the hand count audit because those were mail-in ballots that were not marked with a writing instrument like a mail-in ballot should be,” Favorito said.

“And they appeared to be on suspicious paper stock.”

Fulton County spokeswoman Regina Waller on Monday declined comment.

“Due to a pending legal matter, we are unable to comment at this time,” Waller said via email.

...
You gotta swear in the president before you can verify if he was elected legally or not.

Secretary of State Gardner Agrees to Forensic Audit of Windham’s Voting Machines AND Ballots

Published March 6, 20A November hand recount in the Rockingham District 7 NH House Race in Windham, New Hampshire, found that the Dominion-owned voting machines shorted EVERY REPUBLICAN by roughly 300 votes.

The Dominion-owned machine results were wrong for all 4 Republicans in Windham by 6% or almost exactly 300 votes.

Granite Grok reported:
The Town of Windham used Dominion machines to count paper ballots and upon a believable hand recount, it was confirmed each Republican was machine-cheated out of roughly 300 votes.

You would think this would have been solved by the Dominion machine company, the Secretary of State, the Elections Unit of the AG’s Office, or the laughable Ballot Law Commission. (Kathy Sullivan, d (Term expires July 1, 2024)

Nope.

Just like every other state that used machines that alter ballot counts in favor of one political party over another – here we are.
Dominion Voting Systems owns the intellectual property of the AccuVote machines used in New Hampshire.

On Thursday we spoke with Dr. David Strang M.D., the Belknap County Republican Committee State Committee Member, New Hampshire GOP.

Dr. Strang discussed the suspect New Hampshire election results:
** Republicans flipped the New Hampshire Senate from 14-10, Democrat, to 14-10 Republican in 2020.
** Republicans flipped the New Hampshire House from 230-156 majority Democrat to 213-187 Republican majority in 2020!
** Yet, Joe Biden who was 4th in Democrat Party primary and Kamala Harris, who did not make it to the Dem primary, won the state 52.7 to 45.4 to Trump.

Hours after Democrats accuse Kevin McCarthy of lying about terrorists crossing the border, CBP confirms it to Congress

by Andrew Mark Miller, Social Media Producer | March 16, 2021 05:59 PMU.S. Customs and Border Protection confirmed that four individuals on a terror watchlist have been apprehended crossing the southern border hours after House Democrats slammed House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy for warning about the threat.

CBP told Congress that four people on the FBI’s terrorism watchlist, three from Yemen and one from Serbia, have been arrested at the border since Oct. 1, according to Axios.

On Monday, McCarthy was criticized by House Democrats after warning of the potential terror threat at the border.

I think Biden hates the Press more than Trump did. But at least Trump had a set of ***** to stand up to them and answer their retarded questions.


Biden spoke for about 3 minutes with the owners of Smith Flooring Inc in Chester, Pa., before reporters were escorted out, with almost no mention of his first major legislative achievement as president.

"More help is on the way, for real. Do you have questions for me — at all?" Biden asked.

Tuesday afternoon, Joe Biden held his first event celebrating the passage of the so-called ‘American Rescue Plan’ in Chester, PA — ranked as the “most ghetto” city in all of Pennsylvania.

Though the urban town has a population of over 30,000 people, only a few dozen showed up for the first rally on Biden’s national tour aimed at belatedly selling the already-passed $1.9 trillion nominal stimulus to the enraged public.
The most popular president in history...

People actually believe the media. And I'm the crazy one...


I wonder what else Biden fakes for the puppet masters?

The chroma-key part is easy. Ultimatte is now owned by BlackMagic, and you can buy the latest version for $9k from B&H. This is the keyer which does stuff in real time that ILM couldn't have done in post ten years ago. They have a demo video where a girl with frilly blond hair is blowing bubbles (the soapy kind we had as kids), and not only is the hair perfect, the BUBBLES are perfect. As someone who started working in this industry in the mid 1990s, It blows my mind. You can see the video about halfway down this page: https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/ultimatte

I mean, I'm sure that they spent a full day setting up the software for that ten-second clip, but John Dykstra could have spent a year working in the film lab and not produced results anywhere near that good.

The camerawork to match the movements, though, that was impressive. Walk-n-talk shots are not easy to do convincingly.

Which is why it's astonishing to me that the editor missed the hand-mic thing.

They also missed the lighting: look at the clipped highlights on his bald head...

I'm sure this was augmented reality, like Pokemon.

I noted that, but it honestly looks pretty natural to me. Shooting outside on overcast days can be tough, and the end result on that video is what you'd expect to see in a real-life shot if the photog forgot (or didn't have time) to set the gain and pedestal properly and had to adjust with just iris. ENG cams don't have forty-thousand stops of dynamic range like your fancy DLSR.

100% serious question: how do you define "augmented reality" in this context?

To me, it's just a normal chroma-key shot.

we all live in the matrix?

in other videos, the quality is much better, so what I was seeing as blown highlights was just his hair. However, you should be able to see the trees poking through his thin-*** hair, but there's a hard alpha-path line around his head.

so this would be a example of insurrection, sedition, treason, terrorism, etc that the leftists were complaining about a few months back isn't it? I'm curious why it took so long for me to hear about it.
