THE MORNING EDITION By Mike Huckabee

Good morning! Here are some stories from me that I think you will want to read.

THE LATEST

1. VITALLY IMPORTANT POINT APPROACHING VIRGINIA ELECTION DAY: Election Day for the Virginia gubernatorial race, and for other down-ballot votes as well, is this coming Tuesday, November 2, and the stakes could hardly be higher –- or the choice clearer. Earlier in the week, our commentary on the lurking presence in Virginia of DNC lawyer/activist and infamous election manipulator Marc Elias drew quite a bit of reader response.

You know, it’s impossible for me to respond to every letter --- even though they’re all read --- but now and then it’s instructive to respond to a particular letter for a particular reason. That’s the case with the following letter from Carol, because of one thing she said about the election that really stood out and makes a timely response critical before Election Day. Read her letter and see if you can pick out the part I mean. Then I’ll explain what the very important issue is.

From Carol (with slight editing):

I am in Georgia. Wherever Stacey Abrams goes, the laws are broken. This is what she advocated and got done in Georgia for the 2020 election. She is in Virginia now and the [requirement for the] last four digits of [a voter’s] Social Security number has been deleted even though it is the law there.

This is how it is done and how the election was stolen in 2020, and unless it is stopped, 2022 and 2024 will go the way of 2020. They only win by changing the laws to suit their outcome. Many understand this and will not vote because they say and believe it is rigged. Even the Supreme Court are cowards in taking up the suits that would have proven that.

...Keep America sick and mail-in ballots will again be the next way votes are stolen and elections rigged.

From the Gov:

Thank you for writing, Carol. Yes, we discussed some of the recent changes to the voting laws in Virginia --- also the fact that it’s illegal for the government to ignore laws it doesn’t want to enforce. Marc Elias and Stacey Abrams make quite a team, don’t they?

Another good point is that as long as state and county officials can use COVID-19 as an excuse for mass mail-in voting, cheating will be easy and largely undetectable. And their hope is that we’ll get so used to the convenience of just mailing in our ballots, most people will prefer that whether COVID is still a major concern or not. But we need to do what the French did in 1975 after seeing the fraud caused by mail-in voting: scrap it except on a limited basis, by request when people have a legitimate reason for not being able to get to the polls. That will not happen in battleground states until they’re run by people who don’t want to keep their thumb on the election scales. Those people must be voted out.

That brings me to the part of the letter that has to be addressed. Did you guess it? “MANY...WILL NOT VOTE BECAUSE THEY...BELIEVE THE VOTE IS RIGGED.”

If enough Republicans stay home to make the margin of victory, say, 300 votes instead of 30,000, how much easier have we made it for Democrats to cheat? Cheaters love close races; it’s much harder to see big statistical anomalies and much easier to “find” the relatively small number of votes they need. It’s clear this is what happened in Georgia’s last senatorial election; fed-up Republicans stayed home and let their opponents just take it. We blew our chance to temper the Biden administration with a Republican-led Senate just because some Republicans sat on their hands.

Conversely, it might seem impossible to stop cheaters, but one way to do it is to turn out in such large numbers that they can’t make up the difference with fake votes. It has to be a blowout.

Anyone thinking of sitting out this or any other Election Day had better realize: you are doing exactly what the opposition wants you to. They want you to give up, to resign yourself to the fate they are choosing for you. Don’t do it. Instead, do the opposite of what they want.

It’s kind of a catch: in order to fix the cheating, we have to win in spite of the cheating! I know that seems overwhelming, but if conservative turnout is high enough, it will happen. (I would think that this time, all the justifiably angry parents in Virginia could really make the difference.) Once we’re in, then we work state-by-state to reform the system. Yes, Democrats will fight us every step of the way, so, as I said in speaking of Marc Elias, our lawyers have to be better than their lawyers. And they have to be everywhere.

But polls show conclusively that most Americans want accurate and honest elections. As Jason Snead, executive director of the Honest Elections Project, said, “Voters want it to be easy to vote, but also hard to cheat.” It has become ridiculously easy to vote, and easy to cheat, too. Half the country has lost faith in our elections. If that half of the country stays home on Election Day, the other half wins by default.

As Mollie Hemingway says in RIGGED, “The left’s path to future victory requires it to cow its opposition into silence...A growing number of Americans are outraged by the way the left seizes and deploys power. They are sick of the lies, manipulation, and distortion that a corrupt ruling class spins on a regular basis. Those courageous citizens, not the decaying establishment, will determine the fate of the nation.”

Carol, I want to thank you for writing, because you reminded me, however inadvertently, of something I'd really wanted to mention before Tuesday’s election. Virginians, no matter how you feel about what the left has done to corrupt the system, it is critical that you turn out and vote! Get everyone you know to the polls. Start the red wave.

I’ll close with some good news from John Solomon on the election reform front. In the wake of the Maricopa County audit report –- which was quite bad despite the media’s sugar-coat –- the demand for 2020 forensic audits in all 50 states is gaining support, now up to 38 states, with 150 state legislators signing an open letter to that effect. (Note: I think they’d have more participation if they didn’t call for decertifications as well; the emphasis needs to be on forensic analysis and reform of the system for future elections.) Here’s an excerpt:

“In addition to Arizona, sworn affidavits have accumulated from many states detailing rampant corruption and mismanagement in the election process...We have come to the conclusion that all 50 states need to be forensically audited. Voter rolls should be scrubbed with a canvass of the voters to ensure future integrity of our elections...We call on each state to decertify its electors where it has been shown the elections were certified prematurely and inaccurately.”

In fact, a problematic audit report in Wisconsin has prompted the state senate to launch its own investigation of the 2020 election in that state.

MORE NEWS

2.  "RECONCILIATION FRAMEWORK": Prepare to get sick of hearing the following phrase: “reconciliation framework.” That’s the new euphemism for the Democrats’ giant spending spree bill, which has reportedly been whittled down from $3.5 trillion to “only” $1.75 trillion. To get the votes of the two “moderate” Senate Democrats, Biden reportedly had to agree to cut universal community college, paid family leave, and other expensive liberal wish list policies, as well as the plan to make banks report to the IRS on transactions of over $10,000 (raised from $600 originally.)

Not that anyone in DC cares, but the government doesn’t have $1.75 trillion burning a hole in its pocket any more than it had $3.5 trillion. But this “reconciliation framework” reportedly includes plans to raise $1.995 trillion to pay for it, in the form of new taxes, IRS crackdowns, etc. If you think that sounds suspiciously like they expect us to pay for it, you win a rusty “Whip Inflation Now” button.

For all the press this is getting as a major breakthrough and victory for Biden’s agenda, there are still angry “progressives” refusing to line up because it isn’t big enough, and threatening not to vote for the $1.5 trillion “infrastructure” bill because the other one doesn’t have everything they want. Not to mention the minor detail that there isn’t even a bill. They’re calling it a “reconciliation framework” because as yet, there’s no actual text. They’ve got a tentative agreement to pass a bill that hasn’t been written yet. Is this any way to run…well, anything?

As you might have guessed, this is what you might call an “evolving” story. So here’s a link that should be continually updating as new and ever more unrealistic details emerge.

https://www.foxnews.com/live-news/reconciliation-bill


3. THE FAUCI FADE:  In the latest Rasmussen Reports survey, 49% of Americans say they believe Dr. Anthony Fauci lied about the US funding “gain-of-function” research (the fact that it isn’t 100% is a testament to the bias of our national media), and 46% say he should be forced to resign as director of National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. I expect that number to grow as word of the animal experiments his agency funded finally seeps out around the liberal media gatekeepers.

America the Beautiful

This feature returns with images of America's cities, landscapes and people.

4. BIDEN WANTS TO MAKE ANOTHER FAILED, LOCAL DEMOCRAT POLICY A NATIONAL ONE: Let me explain something to Democrats in Washington: when the states act as laboratories for new ideas, you’re supposed to take only the successful experiments to adopt as national policies, not the failed ones. Yet California’s AB-5 law that’s killing the gig economy and worsening the supply chain crisis appears in a national version in Biden’s $3.5 trillion spendapaloosa bill.

And now, after leftwing district attorneys did away with cash bail and started letting criminals go free – which has contributed to a huge spike in crime in blue cities – President Biden announced that he plans to take that national, too, and ban setting cash bail for violent criminals.

https://redstate.com/andrewmalcolm/2021/10/27/joe-biden-to-ban-cash-bail-for-violent-criminals-in-the-interest-of-equity-you-see-n464151

This is tucked into his new 42-page National Strategy on Gender Equity and Equality, which has to be the most obvious attempt at distraction from what’s really going on since magicians discovered scantily-clad female assistants. Heaven knows, America has no pressing problems that need to be addressed, so it’s time for Biden and his cohorts to focus like a laser beam on “gender equity.”

By the way, part of the connection made between “criminal justice reform” (i.e., legalizing crime and letting criminals run amok) and “gender equity” is that violent crime against trans people is up. Yes, but that’s mostly because, thanks to these Bozos, violent crime against everyone is up. Murder is up 30% (35% in large cities), in the wake of leftist politicians releasing criminals while defunding the police. It’s the biggest annual increase in murders in 30 years.

Of course, Rep. Ilhan Omar, who is the living embodiment of this insane crime-superspreader policy, is now blaming the rise in violent crime on the police. Rep. Dan Crenshaw summed up her lunacy perfectly in one tweet:

https://pjmedia.com/instapundit/481461/


5.  ICE ARRESTS ARE WAY DOWN: Leftists have pushed for years to abolish ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), and while they’ve yet to do away with it entirely, the Biden Administration has so tied ICE’s hands that it’s effectively abolishing immigration enforcement by making it impossible.

https://redstate.com/brandon_morse/2021/10/27/ices-arrest-numbers-have-been-released-and-theyre-absolutely-atrocious-n464444

The Washington Post reports that administrative arrests by ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations are on track to hit 70,000 in fiscal year 2021. That’s down from 103,603 arrests in FY 2020 (which included the beginning of Biden’s term), and down from 143,099 in FY 2019, which was entirely under Trump. And that's even worse than it appears: the higher arrest figures under Trump were during a time when illegal immigration was way down because we actually had border security. But arrests are way down under Biden, despite a historic surge in illegal immigration.

But don’t worry, Biden has a plan for what to do with all the illegal immigrants he’s letting flow into America: he wants to give them work permits. Say, maybe they can replace the countless American citizens whom he wants to fire for not getting vaccinated.

https://redstate.com/mike_miller/2021/10/27/biden-backs-work-permits-for-illegal-aliens-shamelessly-supports-firing-unvaxxed-americans-n464455

I was willing to accept that Biden was elected President, but I wish someone on his staff would inform him which country he’s supposed to be President of.

6. UNSURPRISING ECONOMIC NEWS:  The Commerce Department reports that US GDP growth fell to 2% in the third quarter, the weakest since the pandemic recovery began. Economists expected 2.7% growth, and the previous quarter’s growth was 6.7%. It was partly blamed on a resurgence of COVID and on government assistance payments declining and consumer spending slowing.

https://www.foxbusiness.com/economy/us-gross-domestic-product-q3-2021#&_intcmp=hp1r_8,hp1r

So we have rampant inflation even while the economy is slowing and consumer spending is falling? I think we used to have a word for that in the 1970s…

7. POLLS REVEAL AMERICA WANTS A DO-OVER: If you express any doubts that the 2020 election was the most honest, fair, perfect election in history, you get accused of spreading “disinformation” and promoting a “Big Lie.” We all know there’s no such thing as election fraud and it’s practically treasonous to say there is, unless you’re talking about how the Russians cheated Hillary out of the Presidency in 2016, or how Stacey Abrams is the real Governor of Georgia, or…well, basically, any race that the Democrats lost.

https://www.westernjournal.com/poll-35-voters-say-2020-election-overturned/

But the strategy of demonizing skeptics while moving heaven and earth to keep anyone from looking at the evidence doesn’t seem to be winning over everyone. A new Politico/Morning Consult poll found that 35% of registered voters think the Trump/Biden election results should be overturned. That includes 58% of Republicans and 14% of Democrats.

Still, I suspect there’s an aspect of this that has nothing to do with whether people believe the 2020 vote was rigged. I believe a lot of people just think that, honest or not, electing Biden was a big mistake and we need a do-over, stat. That’s supported by a Rasmussen survey from August that found that if the election were held today, Trump would win.

https://www.westernjournal.com/trump-win-election-held-today-majority-americans-blame-biden-afghanistan-poll/

It also found that 9% of Democrats regretted their vote for Biden, and things haven’t exactly been looking up since August. The story about the new Politico poll states that “only” 14% of Democrat voters want to overturn the 2020 election, but what does it say about how well Biden is doing his job that 14% of his voters want to overturn an election that their candidate won?


HYMNAL: GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS

Listen: https://youtu.be/0k1WhFtVp0o

1 Great is thy faithfulness, O God my Father;

there is no shadow of turning with thee;

thou changest not, thy compassions, they fail not;

as thou hast been thou forever wilt be.

Refrain:

Great is thy faithfulness!

Great is thy faithfulness!

Morning by morning new mercies I see:

all I have needed thy hand hath provided--

Great is thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!

2 Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,

sun, moon, and stars in their courses above

join with all nature in manifold witness

to thy great faithfulness, mercy, and love. [Refrain]

3 Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth,

thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide,

strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,

blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside! [Refrain]

    Sad to say, there were HUGE election anomalies in the 2020 election and that did not stop the Democrats from claiming a victory on a farce election that was not allowed any thorough and complete audit or discovery in the Supreme Court. While I do not understand why some people will not at least TRY to vote, my prediction is that until the election laws are changed and followed and the Supreme Court grows a spine, with the exceptions of Justices Thomas and Alito, nothing will change and we will have a repeat of 2020. The people's voice will not be heard, AGAIN!

    Everyone blames Biden for the mess this country is in. He doesn't know what day it is or where to stand. He has no functioning brain. I think Harris, Obama and the Left ilk are pulling his strings so that when he is gone and it all hits the fan they think they won't get the blame. I'd like to see the real people who are creating this mess be exposed.

    I just can’t get away from the feeling that the DNC will find a way to win the elections. They have gotten away with cheating so why not more. When people are ruthless they can get away with a lot especially when the Federal enforcement agency is apparently behind them. I suspect that many Northern. Virginians simply will not vote as they won’t want to vote for the incumbent but will not be able to bring themselves to vote for a Republican, might be mean tweets you know. They honestly believe that the GOP electorate is racist, homophobic, uncaring and every bad thing possible. When that is all you hear, you start to believe it. They just think we need another Democrat who can manage utopia, despite the failures of communism in all other communist countries. They believe we can do it better. Human nature is human nature. If you are going to pay me when I do stellar work, overtime, and etc. at the same rate you pay those who do the absolute minimum then why should I work so hard. If .I don’t mind a lower standard of living but have heat, air, food, minimal housing and medical all taken care of even if I don’t work, plus enough money to buy cigs, alcohol and drugs then I might not have to work at all. Everyone should read the Old Testament and see what happened to cities and empires that became licentious, lazy, drunken, irresponsible, and worship other gods. God has great patience but sometimes it is just too much. Parents are like that. God is the ultimate Parent.
    I do not think Trump should run again as I think he would lose. He has not been able to learn speech control. We have other great candidates. At 81 myself I think he is too old anyway despite his admirable energy. He could have been re-elected if he could have just moderated his mouth some. He unnecessarily ridicules elder statesmen when the die for one thing. His ego just erupts ll over the place. Yet, when it came to the overall welfare of the country he was one of the best presidents we have had. Personality does count, probably too much, but many people vote based on likability.

    "If the election were held today, Trump would win."???
    We all know that Trump did in fact win,but the result of the election was changed by wholesale switching of votes from Trump to Biden by using the cleverly inserted "glitch " in the programming of the Dominion voting machines.
    And that is not disinformation.

    No matter how often they smear Trump and all people who feel the election was rigged, any sane and reasoned person knows it was. They smear all doubters to shut them up. Only a real simpleton or part of the smear operation can believe that this lifelong loser, Biden, received 80 million votes by sitting in his basement, or holding an infrequent, unattended campaign event. That is more than the beloved Obama or the vivacious Hillary garnered. That raised questions in my mind because we all know how well Hillary cheats. Even with her Russian Hoax she couldn't pull it off. Think about it folks, it stinks and those of us who cast legitimate votes are being screwed. Elections as they were intended no longer exist if they ever did. This cheating didn't start yesterday

    Can someone please explain supply and demand and taxation to our geniuses in congress? You should not be electable until you understand basic economic principles. First, the law of supply and demand comes down to the less there is of something the more valuable it becomes. Secondly, the more you tax something the less you produce. And once and for all, would someone please advise these clueless morons that Businesses and Corporations pay ZERO taxes. The way it works, is Taxes are an overhead item to businesses and therefore recovered through the pricing of their product. When you and me buy a given business'es goods, you become the taxpayer. It's that simple and yet the people we elect to administer taxes can count on us believing they are accomplishing great things when they tax the rich or businesses. They must be laughing up their sleeves at the apathy and ignorance of the average taxpayer. jack
