It's when a corporation, individual, or organization has their finances gone through with a fine toothed comb. The word is simply being misused when associated with an election audit. Probably because it sounds impressive.
Mountains of evidence that you can't actually produce, huh?
Those people you mention could have seen the evidence...if they had looked at it instead of telling their people to stop investigating, like Barr did.
It wasn't. Only nutters are out there claiming it was.
So either there were mountains of evidence and absolutely everyone else was maligned against seeing this evidence, tossing 50+ court cases, audits and recounts reconfirming the results all faked, etc. Or....or....there's no "mountains of evidence".
From my understanding, a forensic audit -- as it applies to companies -- is when potential fraud or malfeasance is found/suspected during the process of a regular audit. Then a deep dive is done into that particular issue. It's done on an as-needed basis. It would be prohibitive to do a forensic audit on every transaction "just in case." Since there's no evidence of fraud with the Arizona audit, Cyber Ninja is "gish galloping" in the hopes of finding something.
You are not supposed to believe me, because I am not trying to convince you of anything. Check the facts for yourself and believe that.
Where did you get this idea. It has no relation to what has been posted. Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Michigan are not small states.
You might as well throw in Texas. No one said they did not and both states have acted aggressively to update their election procedures. This might be an indication that there were attempts.
Far from odd, this is one of red the flags that there was fraud possible at the top of the ballot. It's far simpler to prepare a fake ballot that only votes of President, or President and Senator, which don't change district to district.
That is worth investigating. There are signs of tampering in states that went for Trump. One possible reason is that election day Republican turnout swamped the prepared positions.
Few races are close enough. The Presidential election was paper-thin, which is necessary for fraud to work without being obvious.
Apparently that tactic was popularized by Gingrich.
That's actually a great question. Well first, for a little history lesson, for four years while Trump was president the left cried nonstop that Russia stole our election with zero evidence (didn't hear the media call them out on that). They couldn't find even one vote Russia changed so they claimed Russia "influenced" the election, while not being able to prove that anything Russia did influenced even one person's vote.
I think the point is you need to be slapped upside the head as much as he has.
I didnt. So please spell it out for me.
Sorry, the idea of some conspiracy whackjobs doing anything other than cowering at home yelling at the internet; is not something that ever crossed my mind
The members of Congress are not involved.
The chaos got worse, see: Jan 6...and the ongoing fallout from it. And as long as they continue to lie about it, that Big Lie requires countering...it's not attacking to try and make people see reality. You cant let crap like that stand, look how many people still believe it and react crazily? Even violently?
?? Why are they not involved? They can convene commissions, investigations, etc. They're involved, they wanted to retain power and the majority in DC, right? To have their candidate in the WH?
Good post.
++ There was and still is no need to bend, twist, spin, exaggerate or take out of context anything about Trump. He provided the material. He lied countless times, insulted huge portions of the US populace, said a judge couldn't be impartial because his grandparents were from Mexico, wouldn't reveal his taxes, praised dictators, insulted allies, called for our military to do torture and war crimes, pardoned service members whom our military had charged or convicted of murder, couldn't even bring himself to admit he made a mistake about the Central Park Five, etc. His administration started with chaos at airports, ended with chaos in the Capitol. (Top that, Biden!) No need to spin those things; they speak for themselves.
To answer your last point/question about what's keeping them convinced of the Big Lie: it is already or will become like the "Lost Cause" of the South post civil war, or the Nazi theory of Germany being "stabbed in the back" at the end of WWI -- a way to explain what they cannot accept. That, plus a fear of Trump's attacks. That they turned and made into a GOP "non-person" a solid conservative like Liz Cheney for stating what they all quietly believe says it all.So, nobody that still believes the 'election was stolen' will answer this?
Here's what I've asked. I cant tell you how many times I've posted this and not one of them can give a logical answer:
So then what does/did the GOP know and understand after the election? They had 2.5 months to investigate, as a whole...with their majority and resources. To convene a commission, to investigate the claims, to audit, to seek verifiable facts, etc. Where was that federal investigation? They could STILL pursue it now but certainly they had more power and the majority then to back them and do everything legally in their power to retain control of the WH and their power in Washington.Why didnt they? Why didnt they do everything legally possible to retain the WH and their power by creating a commission to investigate claims of fraud and a stolen election? Or to drive any coordinated federal investigation at all?
The only answers I've gotten were "They were tired of the Dems and the liberal media constantly attacking them" and "to protect the country from further "chaos"."
So if they cant understand this, or explain it...what's keeping them convinced of the Big Lie? (somewhat rhetorical but perhaps there's some rational explanation?) @Jay59 you just asked a similar question. What are your thoughts?
I've posted my comments on this to you, and you didnt respond. Perhaps now?
That stuff was ALL in The Donald's own words. We all heard it, read the quotes. The media didnt change that.
"The Left" claimed all of that, huh?
Even if the above had a scintilla of truth to it (and, of course, it does not).....that's not stealing an election.
We've had dozens of investigations. From the DHS, DOJ, the US AG etc. We know without doubt there was no fraud.
So there are hundreds of republican governors, secretaries of state, judges, department heads etc that all conspired to install a democrat into the presidency? Do you not feel even slightly embarrassed peddling this bullshit?
