Today, U.S. District Court Judge James D. Peterson denied an injunction sought by Great America PAC, The Committee to Defend the President (formerly known as Stop Hillary PAC) and Ronald R. Johnson to end Green Party US candidate Jill Stein’s pointless recount in Wisconsin. In doing so, however, Judge Peterson interpreted the law to clearly prevent the inevitable frivolous appeal of the recount by Stein from disrupting the safe harbor for Wisconsin’s electoral votes for President Elect Donald Trump. Eric Beach, Co-Chairman of Great America PAC, stated, “Hopefully Miss Stein’s sham fundraising will end, and we can get about the business of making America great again,” Beach continued, “Stein has shown no compunction about endangering other’s right to vote and be counted to server her own financial benefit, and while the recount will continue, Stein will not be able to further endanger Wisconsin voters.”

Somewhat reassuring. When are they supposed to be finished?

As of Dec 6th (no newer numbers available) the results are:
Trump has gained a net of 139 votes
Clinton has gained a net of 141 votes
At this point Hillary has a net gain of 2 votes which is a joke (and a monumental waste of money) compared to the 22,000 she lost by.

Net change of 3 votes in favor of trump

So, you're saying that you want the Executive branch to order an investigation of an opponent for political reasons?

No that would just be an added benefit.
The Clinton Foundation should be investigated because it appears to be shady as hell. As a non profit, if any funds were incorrectly used there are serious ramifications.
We are a nation of laws, and there should be Hell to pay when laws are broken. By either side. If people dont like the law, then change it.

The DOJ, IRS and FBI are a tentacle of Obama's extreme politics. Deny this. Go research IG Gerald Walpin. An IG Obama fired because an investigation came back derogatory on MO and Americorps.

Investigation is an ambiguous word. How about we just rip their throats out Mr. president.
