        “If you can accept losing, you can’t win.” – Vince Lombardi

While most of us are trying to put 2020 behind us, we cannot ignore what we are facing, not only in the next four years, more importantly, in the days ahead.

“We must shake the victim mentality,” wrote Carol Brown in American Thinker. “It is the antithesis of what it means to be an American.”

Even after four years of fighting for us, we have a president who doesn’t give up. No matter how daunting or hopeless our options may seem, we must continue the fight for our country.

“How dare any of us claim to be exhausted, worn out, or too discouraged to lift a finger when this man has almost single-handedly achieved so much for this country?  If we don’t fight, then we have surrendered,” notes Brown.

Mark Your Calendar

President Trump has asked for a sea of patriots to gather in Washington DC on January 6, 2021.  That’s the day members of Congress will gather to challenge the Electoral College results, a provision of the 1887 Electoral Count Act, which allows the vice president, as president of the Senate, to preside over the Joint Session of Congress.

Rep. Mo Brooks of Alabama seems to be leading the effort to object to the Electoral College returns, while his colleague Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois shamefully referred to the effort as “a scam.”

Disappointingly, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell told senators not to take part in House GOP-led effort.  Establishment’s Senate Majority Whip John Thune of South Dakota said Brooks’ plan is “doomed to fail regardless of who joins,” and Texas Sen. John Cornyn called it a “futile exercise.”  No fight in them.

Too bad Cornyn seems to have forgotten the famous plea by William Barret Travis at the Alamo: “Those prepared to give their lives in freedom’s cause, come over to me.”

“President Trump is the best man for the party to come along since Reagan,” writes Patricia McCarthy in American Thinker, “and they’re nearly all ready to throw him under the bus.  It’s disgusting.”

Speaking of the massive vote fraud, Brooks said, “it is sad to the extent that we’ve got Republicans who are unwilling to do their homework or unwilling to make tough decisions.”

There’s considerable evidence that Democrats cheated in the swing states.

Kudos to Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley, however, who said he will join the objection with Brooks.  Hawley has been stepping up for the party and country since defeating establishment Democrat Claire McCaskill in 2018.

The Latest of Numerous Irregularities

“Republican lawmakers in Pennsylvania say “an alarming discrepancy” in the presidential vote count is two times larger than the margin of President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in the state, according to a December 29, 2020 report in the Washington Examiner.  Rep Frank Ryan and a dozen of his colleagues also raised suspicions about there being tens of thousands few votes in the presidential race than overall ballots.

According to the analysis, county election results showed 6,962,607 total ballots were reported as cast, while the Statewide Uniform Registry of Electors system indicated that only 6,760,230 total voters actually voted, a difference of 202,377 votes.

That gap, coupled with 31,547 fewer presidential race votes in county data means that the discrepancy of 170,830 votes, more than twice the statewide difference between Biden and Trump.

Brooks also plans to object to electoral results in Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, Nevada and Arizona.

Another Important Date

I cannot recall a single election as important to our future as the Georgia runoff election on January 5, 2021, with our Republican incumbents, Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, facing challenges by two very radical Democrat candidates, Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff.

Just how important?  If Loeffler and Perdue were to lose, future tie votes in the Senate would be decided by the most liberal Senator, soon to be vice president, Kamala Harris.  That would put the Biden-Harris administration in the catbird seat.

One win will assure that Republicans will retain the Senate, however, we need the margin that Loeffler and Perdue wins would provide.

Trump Continues to Support

On eve of the runoff election, President Trump will continue to fight for his party and country, appearing in a Dalton, Georgia rally.

“We can fight for the presidency, and we can fight for these two great Senators, and we can do it at the same time,” Trump said, a signal that he will also be supporting the House GOP-led effort to object to the Electoral College results.

Wherever you are, don’t surrender … if you can vote in Georgia, vote for Loeffler and Perdue.  What’s at stake is the survival of the Republic itself under a Constitution the left openly despises.

May God continue to bless the United States of America.
