While journalists and news outlets love to claim they are holding people accountable in their reporting, one detail always overlooked is their own accountability. Those who hold judgement are above being judged, goes their thinking. This leads to odd results frequently, such as when the press manages to defy the very mandates they have called to be imposed on others.

It never fails to amuse when the self-appointed authorities cannot keep their own positions straight, and throughout the past year there have been numerous instances where the media managed to contradict their own positions.

As we saw played out in a number of lawsuits filed in the aftermath of the election, the Trump campaign was not able to marshall that kind of specific, ballot-level evidentiary record to invalidate a discrete set of cast ballots that would reverse the numerical result. They had significant anecdotal evidence of irregular and highly suspicious behavior, as well as some expert testimony regard insecure and vulnerable voting processes, but that expert testimony did not provide an answer to the question “Which specific ballots cast by which identified voters were invalid and why?”

And that is what the Democrats have always counted on when shoving through invalid votes by any means necessary. The vote for President is unique because of the extraordinarily compressed timeframe regarding the vote of the Electoral College, making the procedural hurdles of a meaningful election contest insurmountable.

In a case dealing with a dispute regarding just about anything other than an election contest, the type of analysis done by Dr. Lott would be admissible and compelling because it would allow Dr. Lott to offer an expert opinion in the form of something like “But for the impact of fraudulent conduct, there is no other explanation for the outcome of the voting as reflected by the pattern analysis. In the absence of fraudulent influences, barring the existence of evidence of some other contributing factor, the outcome of the election would have been different.” //

What Dr. Lott did instead was to look at precinct-level voting data for those precincts on the county’s borders, and compare the data to contiguous precincts in the next county over.

According to their analysis on time series election data which was published online as early as Dec. 24, Trump’s votes were decrementing in various counties instead of increasing as they do normally. //

A “clear example of vote switching” happened in DeKalb county, they said.

At 9:11 p.m. local time, Trump received 29,391 votes as Biden simultaneously received 17,218. However, in the next reported time update, Trump’s votes became 17,218 while Biden’s changed to 29,391.

In this single event, 12,173 votes were switched, the data scientists believe.

“I want to make that very, very clear that at no point in an incremental process, should you decrement it,” Lobue said.

State-certified election results show Trump lost Georgia by 12,670 votes. The Trump campaign is still challenging the results in various courts.

CNN's Fareed Zakaria Lets Out 'Dirty Little Secret' They Hid About Trump
By Nick Arama | Jan 01, 2021 10:30 PM ET

CNN
Now that the media thinks that President Donald Trump will be leaving office, they’re admitting things they never would have admitted otherwise.

CNN for example pushed all kinds of fake news against Trump for four years, suggesting all kinds of connections to Russia that weren’t real and pushing the Russia collusion hoax.

But today, on CNN’s New Day, Fareed Zakaria, revealed the network’s “dirty little secret” about the president.

First, he spread nonsense about how he thought Joe Biden would get us “engaged again” around the world. Like how Biden was engaged in Ukraine and China? Or how the Obama coddled Iran and failed to do anything about Russia or North Korea? President Donald Trump actually had real constructive contact, not just talk and bending over for our enemies.

When he was asked about how Russia policy would change if Biden came in, Zakaria dropped the truth about Trump.

From Newsbusters:

“I think in general, there isn’t going to be as much difference as people imagine. The Biden folks are pretty tough on Russia, Iran, North Korea. You know, the dirty little secret about the Trump administration was that while Donald Trump had clearly had a kind of soft spot for Putin, the Trump Administration was pretty tough on the Russians. They armed Ukraine, they armed the Poles. They extended NATO operations and exercises in ways that even the Obama Administration had not done. They maintained the sanctions. So I don’t think it will be that different.”

So as Newsbusters notes, who were the people that kept all that a secret? It was CNN and their liberal brethren in media, as they tried to suggest things other than the truth.

Add to that Trump was the one who dropped bombs on Russians, killing a few hundred in Syria. Remember how media mocked Trump about his interest in Greenland? But that very interest showed how far thinking Trump was about trying to head off Russia’s aims in the region. He wanted position there to check them if need be.

But the liberal media never really cared about the facts, just the narrative. So for four years we heard all kinds of stories suggesting Trump was a Russian agent. You can still see Democrats spreading this nonsense to this day and many still think so, even though it’s been debunked.

If they actually cared about who really seemed in the pocket of the Russians, the irony of ironies was, it was never Trump.

Compare to the Obama/Biden administration, which never seemed to really check the Russians, even after they claimed “Russian interference.” Indeed they did everything that seemed to help the Russians, from making the deal with Iran (Russia’s connection in the region), not arming Ukraine (and Obama personally making sure they were disarmed to begin with), killing American pipelines, not checking Russia in the Arctic. In all things, Obama was strangely “flexible” for Russia. Perhaps it was not strange then that it was to Russian disinformation that the Democrats appealed to try to take down Trump in 2016. Imagine what the Democrats would have done to Trump if he had that hot mic moment that Obama had with Putin’s stand-in Dmitry Medvedev. Trump would have been impeached by the Democrats in a red-hot minute. Obama? He got a pass.

But media never gave Trump credit for all he has done, even with stunning historic achievements in the Middle East and in the development of the vaccines at the fastest rate in history. Everything he did do, they downplayed, spun to a negative or if they couldn’t do that, just ignored. It’s why yes, there was interference in this election. It was by the media, who did all they could to hurt Trump and help the Democrats
