TEXAS – “Conservative Republican Bobby Piton attended the Illinois GOP Fundraising dinner in Rosemont, Illinois (Cook County-The HOME of ELECTION FRAUD). During the Q & A session with RINO Crenshaw, Col. Larry Kaifesh asked Crenshaw if he believed in election integrity, and if he thought the election was rigged. Crenshaw stunned the crowd (doubling down on the same democrat appeasing RINO Rep. Liz Cheney and RINO Rep Adam Kinzinger talking points) denying the election fraud.” WATCH:

U.S. Census Bureau Delivers Data for States to Begin Redistricting Efforts

AUG. 12, 2021 — The U.S. Census Bureau today released additional 2020 Census results showing an increase in the population of U.S. metro areas compared to a decade ago. In addition, these once-a-decade results showed the nation’s diversity in how people identify their race and ethnicity.

“We are excited to reach this milestone of delivering the first detailed statistics from the 2020 Census,” said acting Census Bureau Director Ron Jarmin. “We appreciate the public’s patience as Census Bureau staff worked diligently to process these data and ensure it meets our quality standards."

These statistics, which come from the 2020 Census Redistricting Data (Public Law 94-171) Summary File, provide the first look at populations for small areas and include information on Hispanic origin, race, age 18 and over, housing occupancy and group quarters. They represent where people were living as of April 1, 2020, and are available for the nation, states and communities down to the block level.

A contingent of U.S. troops “will temporarily deploy” to assist the withdrawal of American diplomats from Afghanistan, Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s team announced Thursday, adding that the U.S. Embassy in Kabul will remain with limited personnel.

“We expect to draw down to a core diplomatic presence in Afghanistan in the coming weeks,” State Department spokesman Ned Price told reporters. “In order to facilitate this reduction, the Department of Defense will temporarily deploy additional personnel to Hamid Karzai International Airport.”

“The military will be there to help affect an orderly and safe reduction in our personnel,” the State Department spokesman added. “Staff involved in this reduction of civilian personnel include, for example, those who may be able to perform functions … elsewhere, whether that's back here in the United States or elsewhere."

Price emphasized that the U.S. Embassy “remains open,” but he refused to say if the entire diplomatic mission would be moved to the airport.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The leader of an investigation into the 2020 election in Wisconsin traveled to Arizona last week to learn about the audit done there and was attendeding a symposium on election fraud Thursday in South Dakota headed by MyPillow chief executive Mike Lindell.

Former Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman told The Associated Press on Thursday that both visits were about gathering facts for the investigation he is leading.

“I'm here out of an honest effort to find out if anyone has any information that will be helpful in carrying out my duties as special counsel,” Gableman said as he walked from his hotel room to where the symposium is being held in Souix Falls, South Dakota.

Gableman said his trip last week to Arizona, where a widely discredited election audit by Cyber Ninjas is being conducted, was to learn more about the allegations, the best practices to investigate those allegations and what could be done differently.

“I learned a lot there that will be helpful to my investigation,” Gableman said. He declined to go into details about what he learned from either trip. He said the trips were paid for out of his $11,000 salary approved by Republican Assembly Speaker Robin Vos when he hired Gableman to lead the investigation.

Griswold just like Katie Hobbs

(CBS4) – Mesa County must replace its election equipment after a security breach. Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold said in a news conference on Thursday morning that the county clerk in the western Colorado county lied to her office.

Griswold, a Democrat, says the Mesa County Clerk and Recorder’s office directed staff to turn off video surveillance tools prior to a May 25 voting machine update session, thus making it unable to verify the chain of custody of the machines.

“This is troubling for the entire state of Colorado to have someone in a trusted position, literally trusted to protect democracy, allow this type of situation to occur. To be very clear, Mesa County Clerk and Recorder allowed a security breach and by all evidence at this point assisted it,” Griswold said.

Furthermore, Griswold said an unauthorized person attended the May 25 session. That was when, Griswold said, passwords were accessed and recently posted online by what she called conspiracy theorists.

Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters has denounced an investigation by the secretary of state. Griswold said Peters isn’t cooperating.
