I talked to Dinesh D’Souza today.

Sounds like a nice guy but that doesn’t make me hopeful

"Unfortunately, the people that could do something, won their races, so they really don't want to see any fraud."

This point is barely emphasized

We are asking the people put in power by elections to investigate and uncover fraud in the very elections that put them in office.

nice man, that Dinesh

Or......he could release the data as we had hoped.

I would have liked to have invited him for a cup of coffee, but you could tell he gets approached all the time and is trying his best to limit it.

Assuming your story actually happened, that’s pretty damn awesome.

His response was: "well, it'll take various elected officials at the state and national level to do something."

So… that’s a No. Gotcha. Thanks.

And when they fail to do so there is a constitutional amendment that comes after the first and before the third that can be utilized

Everyone focuses on Congress. But the reality is change has to come at the state level. Unfortunately, many people in state legislatures (like in Congress) either go into politics to bolster their own self-interest, or they eventually become completely self-interested even if they initially got into politics for altruistic reasons.

I watched the latter happen with a close relative of mine. He's always been a nice and genuinely caring person. He was well liked in his small town. After he retired he ran for and was elected to the state legislature. Within a few years he had become as pompous a self-interested douchebag as any of the other legislators.

"Bucking the system" does you personal favors in that world. So once they get a taste of "power" they do whatever is necessary to keep it. Which often times means just going along with the status quo. Perhaps the best example of someone who is NOT going along with the status quo in his state is Ron DeSantis in Florida. Yes, I'm sure a big part of why he is doing so is to bolster his own self-interest in becoming President. But it is also helping the state of Florida along the way.

You sure were up early this morning in San Diego... on Pacific Time... before UPS stores are typically open....
