Holy Shite.... Now they have gone there...

quote:

“There are federal or criminal penalties attached,” the Department of Justice asserts. They claim that those who arrange forensic audits of the 2020 election “can face fines of up to $1,000 and imprisonment of up to one year for each violation.” Then, their intimidating document suggests that these audits represent “intimidation”.



quote:

“The Attorney General is authorized to file a civil action seeking preventative relief” against those who organize election audits, the “guidance” explains. “Judicial decisions have established that voter intimidation need not involve physical threats,” the “guidance” continues.

We are going to have a shootout between the feds and a state at some point in the not too distant future.

So, the federal government is going to arrest state legislatures for doing something that falls within the state legislatures' powers and not the federal government's powers?

How very Hitler of them.

LOL so threaten prison time in order to not see if the election was fraudulent.

That's an odd reaction.

The lines have been drawn. The enemy has taken control of the government. Damn it sure feels like this nation is a powder keg at the moment. If there was ever any doubt that the left fraudulently rose to power this should erase it.

DOJ has no authority to order anything, they can threaten but they can't order.

Why won't Garland pull the Trigger? Because he knows he can't do shite? Because he's a Fig? What's the hold up Merrick?

Go and do what you're saying or STFU!

Misleading article.

quote:

There are federal criminal penalties attached to willful failures to comply with the retention and preservation requirements of the Civil Rights Act


The intimidation portion is much more specific than the article makes it seem.

quote:

For example, when such investigative efforts are directed, or are perceived to be directed, at minority voters or minority communities, they can have a significant intimidating effect on qualified voters that can deter them from seeking to vote in the future. Jurisdictions that authorize or conduct audits must ensure that the way those reviews are conducted has neither the purpose nor the effect of dissuading qualified citizens from participating in the electoral process

I hope the state legislatures start and finish their audits to force the feds hand.
