“They (the Democrats) Know That This Is a Corrupt System That They Have Been Trying to Cover Up” – AZ Rep Mark Finchem with Steve Bannon Discussing Maricopa County Audit

Arizona Representative Mark Finchem was on the War Room with Steve Bannon this morning. Below are some notables from Finchem during their discussion.

This morning, Steve Bannon, host of the WarRoom Pandemic, interviewed Arizona Representative Mark Finchem (R) regarding the Arizona Senate’s upcoming forensic audit of the 2.1 million ballots from the November 3, 2020, Maricopa County election. Below is a condensed version of that discussion:

Senate President Karen Fann has provided strong, ethical, and fair leadership for the citizens of Arizona on this contentious issue.

Training will be taking place today and tomorrow, and the actual audit will begin on Friday and last for an estimated 40-day period, which includes the time needed to compile results and write the report.

Bannon has been interviewing Finchem on a regular basis since November 4, 2020, when our country went through the worst-ever case of a fraudulent, stolen election it has ever had, since its very founding.

Maricopa County, the fourth largest county in the United States and the largest County in Arizona is the first American county going through a detailed, secure, forensic audit of its 2020 election. There are at least five other states whose November 2020 election results are considered, by many American Republicans, Conservatives, and unaffiliated voters, to have been stolen: Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Nevada.

NBC News Deceptively Edits Bodycam Footage So Viewers Don’t See Knife in Ma’Kiyah Bryant’s Hand Moments Before Officer Shoots Her Dead

NBC News deceptively edited police bodycam footage so their viewers wouldn’t see the knife in 15-year-old Ma’Kiyah Bryant’s hand moments before a Columbus officer shot her dead.

NBC also deceptively edited the 911 call to omit the part where the caller says a girl was “trying to stab us.”

NBC anchor Lester Holt began the segment by showing a picture of a smiling Ma’Kiyah Bryant to make her look innocent.

Omitting the fact that the teen was wielding a large knife and attempting to stab someone is willful deception.

According to Newsbusters, ABC and CBS were actually honest (for once) and showed the part where Ma’Kiyah Bryant was trying to stab another female.

ABC and CBS also played the important part of the 911 call : “These grown girls over here trying to fight us, trying to stab us,” the caller said.

The police bodycam footage released by the Columbus mayor showed Makiyah Bryant attempting to stab someone as the officer acted swiftly and opened fire, fatally striking her.

Oxygen Leak Kills at Least 24 COVID-19 Patients on Ventilators in Indian Hospital

SATARA, India—At least 24 COVID-19 patients in western India died on Wednesday when the oxygen supply to their ventilators ran out, amid a nationwide shortage of the gas and a surge in infections.

Maharashtra State Health Minister Rajesh Tope confirmed the deaths at a hospital in Nashik city and said the hospital’s oxygen supply ran out because a tanker refilling it suffered a leak. Oxygen was running scarce throughout the country.

“The leakage was spotted at the tank supplying oxygen for these patients. The interrupted supply could be linked to the deaths of the patients in the hospital,” Tope said.

Hospitals in Delhi, the capital, and elsewhere have warned that their supplies of medical oxygen given to severely ill COVID-19 patients are running low.

Max Healthcare, the largest private sector healthcare provider in Delhi and its suburbs, said some of its hospitals had barely two hours’ supply of oxygen.

Television showed images of people with empty oxygen cylinders crowding refilling facilities in the most populous state of Uttar Pradesh, as they scrambled to save stricken relatives in hospital.

The situation was so severe that some people tried to loot an oxygen tanker, forcing authorities to beef up security, according to the health minister of the northern state of Haryana.

Okotoks man charged following Internet Child Exploitation investigation

The arrests, which occurred between Jan. 1 to March 31, 2021, came as the result of investigative referrals from the RCMP’s National Child Exploitation Coordination Centre.

Twenty-four suspects, including an Okotoks man, have been charged with a total 60 offences related to online sexual exploitation of children with the Alberta Law Enforcement Response Teams (ALERT) Internet Child Exploitation (ICE) team reporting a surge in case referrals during the pandemic.

“This is a concerning consequence of our digital dependency during the pandemic. ALERT has responded by directing more tools and resources to our ICE units and we are prepared to travel to every corner of the province in order to stop child sex predators,” said ALERT CEO Supt. Dwayne Lakusta in a press release.

The release added ALERT ICE has experienced a nearly 40 per cent increase in the number of case referrals in collaboration with its policing partners across the province.

The arrests, which occurred between Jan. 1 to March 31, 2021, came as the result of investigative referrals from the RCMP’s National Child Exploitation Coordination Centre, which works with Internet and social media providers to track and investigate online instances of child sexual exploitation.

“The sexual exploitation of children is a crime that tears at the fabric of society and preys on our most vulnerable," said Kaycee Madu, Alberta Minister of Justice and Solicitor General. "Increased provincial funding is enabling ALERT to double the size of its ICE unit, ensuring it has the tools and resources to track down predators who commit these heinous acts and bring them to justice."

With new provincial funding, ALERT has sought to double the size of the ICE unit with the addition of investigators, forensic technicians, analysts, and disclosure clerks, along with new technologies and software applications. With now more than 50 positions, Alberta’s ICE unit is one of the largest of its kind in Canada.

There is no definitive link between the suspects other than the nature of offences allegedly committed. Each of the suspects was charged with at least one child pornography offence:

Jeremy Henderson, 42-year-old man from Okotoks;

Michael Antonio, 25-year-old man from Calgary;

Curt Backlund, 48-year-old man from Grande Prairie;

Brad Bailey, 19-year-old man from Marlboro;

Brett Beer, 54-year-old man from Onoway;

Eric Bultmann, 30-year-old man from Calgary;

Kevin Dykstra, 35-year-old man from Barrhead;

Brian Harrison, 35-year-old man from Calgary;

Bryan Hillman, 39-year-old man from Calgary;

Christopher Hoffner, 34-year-old man from Medicine Hat;

James Kydd, 39-year-old man from Calgary;

Mica LePage, 44-year-old man from Edmonton;

Jordan MacDonald, 30-year-old man from Edmonton;

Cris Marshall, 29-year-old man from Stettler;

Stedson McDonald, 32-year-old man from Grande Prairie;

James Merrison, 21-year-old man from Edmonton;

Traline Munn, 44-year-old man from Cold Lake;

Krishnamoort Nalla Naidu, 38-year-old man from Edmonton;

Van Linh Nguyen, 24-year-old man from Edmonton;

Ivan Scott, 47-year-old man from Cochrane;

Jerry Lee Thompson, 47-year-old from Fort Macleod;

Hunter Tonneson, 20-year-old man from Blackfalds;

Chase Viau, 23-year-old man from Edmonton; and

Richard Westland, 45-year-old man from Medicine Hat.

During the investigations, ICE relied upon the assistance of a number of partner agencies, including: Calgary Police, Edmonton Police, Lethbridge Police, Medicine Hat Police, and RCMP detachments in Barrhead, Beaverlodge, Blackfalds, Cochrane, Edson, Fort Macleod, Grande Prairie, Onoway, Okotoks, Slave Lake, Stettler, and Wood Buffalo.

Anyone with information about these investigations, or any child exploitation offence is encouraged to contact local police or cybertip.ca.

ALERT was established and is funded by the Alberta Government and is a compilation of the province’s most sophisticated law enforcement resources committed to tackling serious and organized crime.

Iranian Accounts, Russian Tactics and Q: Israel Has Become a Disinformation Battlefield

Recent takedown of fake accounts linked to Iran joins long list of cyberattacks, influence campaigns and disinformation ops: ‘We’re seeing techniques revealed by Mueller deployed against Israel’

When Facebook finally took down an account that Israeli activists had been flagging as fake for over a year, they didn’t breathe a sigh of relief. The user, purportedly an Israeli woman named Noa Shamir, was only one out of a large web of fake accounts active on the social network that targeted the protest movement against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Facebook is but one platform in the Israeli social media ecosystem – activists have long said that the fake account and others like it are also active on Twitter, Instagram and even Telegram, the closed messaging platform.

Rand Paul: If feds want more folks vaccinated, Biden should take his mask off and burn it on TV

'Light a torch to it'

GOP Sen. Rand Paul (Ky.) said Wednesday that the federal government's messaging on vaccines has been full of "fearmongering," and suggested the best way to get more people on board with taking COVID-19 shots is for President Joe Biden to take off his mask and burn it on national television

During an interview with Fox News, the Kentucky Republican and ophthalmologist continued his criticism of Dr. Anthony Fauci, whom he has sparred with several times over the course of the pandemic.

"Science is about proving things are happening," Paul told host Martha MacCallum. "If Dr. Fauci can prove that people who are vaccinated are spreading the disease, I will listen to him. If he can prove that people like me who have already had it are spreading the disease, I'll listen to him. But there is no evidence of that."

Then, the senator offered some advice, saying, "If you want more people to get vaccinated, Joe Biden should go on national TV, take his mask off, and burn it. Light a torch to it, and burn his mask and say, 'I've had the vaccine, I am now safe from this plague. If you get the vaccine, you can be safe too.'"

He argued, "The burden of proof should be on the government to prove that we're spreading it and we will listen to them, but instead it sounds sort of like fearmongering."

Meanwhile, the Biden administration continues to urge states and localities to re-implement mask mandates across the nation.

The Washington Examiner noted that earlier that day, Biden told the American people they must continue "to mask up until the number of cases goes down, until everyone has a chance to get their shot."

Anything else?

This is not the first time Paul has accused federal officials of ignoring evidence while issuing their guidance.

Last week, he blasted Biden administration officials for advising states like Michigan to re-impose lockdowns, saying:

"It doesn't obey the science. There is no scientific evidence that the lockdowns in Michigan have done anything, or in California. In fact, the daily incidents of the disease in the last two months has been about almost one and a half times greater in California than it has been in Florida. The death rate is lower in Florida. So there is no real correlation between economic lockdowns, mask mandates, or any of this."

Canada Reveals It Paid White Helmets $4 Million Annually After It Cuts Ties

In another stunning revelation concerning the self-styled "independent" Syrian rescue and aid organization the White Helmets, Canada this week revealed that it has ended all funding for the controversial group yet without detailing why.

A bombshell new report in The Globe and Mail says only that the government of Canada, dubbed "one of the staunchest backers of the White Helmets", ended support "shortly after the death of the group’s British co-founder, James Le Mesurier, who committed suicide in November, 2019."

House Democrats Pass Plan to Stop Travel Bans After Terror Suspects Caught at U.S. Border

House Democrats passed a plan on Wednesday that would make it increasingly difficult for any president to impose a travel ban to protect American citizens and would allow individuals to sue when a president imposes such a ban.

Titled the “No Ban Act,” the legislation would limit a president’s authority to issue travel bans without first consulting Congress and would open the process up to litigation by foreign nationals in the U.S. who are “harmed by such a restriction,” a summary of the plan notes.

The legislation would force the State Department, Department of Homeland Security, and the president to only issue travel bans “when required to address a compelling government interest” and even then, they would be required to “narrowly tailor the suspension to use the least restrictive means to achieve such an interest.”

All 217 House Democrats and one Republican, Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), supported the plan.

House Democrats’ passage of the plan comes after a report this month revealed that two illegal aliens from Yemen were apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border. Following background checks, both were found to be listed on the FBI’s Terrorism Watch List and No-Fly List.

Dan Stein with the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) said in a statement:

Just a week or so after we learned that terrorists are exploiting the Biden border crisis, the House now wants to make it easier for them to waltz in the front door by stripping presidents, current and future, of the authority to bar entry to foreign nationals based on legitimate security concerns.

Today, the U.S. continues to have travel bans on China, Iran, Europe, Brazil, and South Africa as a result of the Chinese coronavirus crisis. President Joe Biden kept former President Trump’s travel ban on China after previously having called it “xenophobic” and “hysteria.”

Biden, though, has ended Trump’s travel ban that prevented immigration from foreign countries considered exporters of state-sponsored terrorism. Likewise, Biden ended Trump’s order that halted a number of visa programs to prioritize jobless Americans for U.S. jobs.

In June 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court reaffirmed in a 5-4 decision that presidents have the authority to limit the entry of any such group of foreign nationals from the U.S. in the interests of the nation.
