The girlfriend of Anthony Warner, the man who detonated the devastating bomb Christmas morning in downtown Nashville, Tennessee, told police over a year ago that he “was building bombs in the RV trailer,” new documents obtained by The Tennessean reveal.
Despite this new information, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation had stated that he wasn’t on their “radar” before the bombing that killed him and injured three other people.
No motivation behind the bombing has been determined yet. The bombing, which exploded outside an AT&T switching facility, blew up a city block and left 41 buildings damaged. The FBI has been investigating whether conspiracies surrounding 5G cellular networks were involved.

Rep Biggs : Jan. 6 electoral proceeding ‘ will be the first time the entire country won ’ t be censored by the left wing media ’ Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley joined other GOP lawmakers on Wednesday , when he announced that he will object to to the certification of electoral votes to name Joe Biden President of the United States .

Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz , along with members of the House Freedom Caucus , are also saying that they will object to certifying the electoral votes for Biden .
What does this mean ?

Vice President Mike Pence will preside over the vote as president of the Senate chamber .

saraacater--2020-12-30--New study estimates 289,000 election-changing ‘excess’ votes, calls Biden win ‘suspicious’

A new voter fraud study by economist and political commentator John R. Lott Jr. suggests that there were 289,000 “ excess ” votes in states where Joe Biden ’ s victory was only slightly higher than President Donald Trump ’ s and that the differences in votes were “ suspicious.
” Lott analyzed the voting in two key counties , Fulton County , Georgia and Allegheny County , Pennsylvania , where there were multiple accusations of voter fraud .
He found irregularities when compared to the 2016 voter data , including the difference in voting by people in neighboring counties @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just across the street , ” which suggests potential voter fraud .
Lott discovered that Trump ’ s rate of absentee voting in Fulton County was much lower than in the four neighboring counties in the 2020 election versus the 2016 election .
“ Trump ’ s percentage of absentee votes was now lower in Fulton county border precincts than in the precincts just across the street in neighboring counties .
Trump ’ s share was 7.19 percentage points lower on the Fulton county side , and the difference was also statistically significant @ @ @ @ @ @ @ two-tailed t-test , ” he wrote in his report .
“ This is not likely to have been caused by the general shift to absentee voting among Democrats , because the study controlled for in-person voting .
In layman ’ s terms , in precincts with alleged fraud , Trump ’ s proportion of absentee votes was depressed — even when such precincts had similar in-person Trump vote shares to their surrounding countries .
The fact that the shift happens only in absentee ballots , and when a country line is crossed , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ if comparable irregularities can be uncovered in Arizona , Michigan , Nevada and Wisconsin , Trump may be able to overturn the election in his favor .
According to Lott , “ The estimates here indicate that there were 70,000 to 79,000 ‘ excess ’ votes in Georgia and Pennsylvania .
Adding Arizona , Michigan , Nevada , and Wisconsin , the total increases to up to 289,000 excess votes .
”

UPDATE:
In a significant turn of events, Attorney General Merrick Garland made a surprising announcement on Friday, elevating Delaware U.S. Attorney David Weiss to the role of special counsel. This decision marks a shift in focus towards the investigation of the Biden family’s financial matters. The probe, which encompasses Hunter Biden’s tax affairs and any potential connections his father, President Joe Biden, might have with his foreign associates, is slated to extend into the 2024 election cycle. Interestingly, this move comes as former President Donald Trump is simultaneously facing two federal indictments from the same department.
Garland stressed that the decision to appoint Weiss as an independent prosecutor aligns with the “public interest” and adheres to departmental regulations. Importantly, this transition was initiated by Weiss himself, who, earlier this week, conveyed his belief that the investigation had reached a point where he should proceed as a special counsel.
Weiss is no stranger to this intricate landscape. He is the federal prosecutor responsible for bringing charges against President Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, in Delaware. Recent times have witnessed the unfolding of legal proceedings involving Hunter Biden, including a probation-oriented plea arrangement that was ultimately rejected by a judge. In June, Hunter Biden agreed to a deal with federal prosecutors, admitting guilt in two tax-related offenses and a firearm charge, potentially leading to the dismissal of the latter charge. This latest development underscores the intensification of scrutiny into the financial affairs of the Biden family and highlights the evolving legal landscape involving prominent political figures.
—
Attorney General Merrick Garland will speak to the public Friday afternoon. It is highly anticipated because I believe, as do many others, that he may be getting ready to announce the appointment of a Special Counsel to investigate “Hunter Biden” and his financial dealings overseas. Although, welcome there are still too many concerns with the DOJ that need to be addressed and there is little faith among many Americans that anything will be done.
Americans have witnessed the makings and the result of a two tiered justice system since President Trump was elected and then the continuing targeting of Trump even after his term as president.
I’ve spoken about the need for an outside investigation into Hunter Biden and President Biden at length on my podcast, The Sara Carter Show and on Fox News. But I’ve been jaded by the failures of past investigations and the weaponization of the Justice Department to do its job. The failure of the DOJ to be blind and just has been devastating to our nation.
Will Garland appoint a special counsel? I don’t know but as Americans we must demand that our leadership, our bureaucracies and our law makers follow the rule of law without prejudice. If they do not, as we have seen over the past decade with the establishments attacks on President Donald Trump and the weaponization of the system to target him, then our foundation will not only be fractured but it will be irreparable.
Either way, the alleged crimes and obvious financial connections linked to the Biden family with adversarial nations like China and Russia must be thoroughly investigated and the investigation must be made public. The Biden connections and large sums of money taken from government connected energy companies in Ukraine must also be thoroughly vetted and any improprieties must be made public.

Sara Carter : MSM would rather withhold info because of their anti-Trump bias than do their job Sara Carter joined Fox News ’ Lou Dobbs Tuesday to discuss the lack of media coverage of the Hunter Biden scandal by the left and how this censorship has affected the American people , including John Paul Mac Issac .
Mac Issac was hired to repair Hunter Biden ’ s laptop in April 2019 .
He is now suing Twitter for $ 500 million , claiming the platform defamed him when they censored the New York Post ’ s story on Hunter Biden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Twitter , ” guest host Gregg Jarrett began , noting how strong Mac Isaac ’ s case is .

“ The FBI sat on this information for quite some time , nobody let the cat out of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ what was going on with Hunter Biden .
And now we know there ’ s an ongoing FBI investigation into the son of the President-elect Joe Biden , ” Carter said .
She continued , “ This is a very serious concern because it ’ s not just about money laundering , but it ’ s connections with foreign nations and foreign companies that are connected to the Chinese Communist party allegedly , as well as Ukraine .

“ When you think about what happened with Hunter Biden here , and the information that ’ s presented , it ’ s really distressing to understand the media would rather withhold that information from the public because of their own bias towards President Trump than actually do their job .
”

Sara Carter joined Fox News’ Lou Dobbs Tuesday to discuss the lack of media coverage of the Hunter Biden scandal by the left and how this censorship has affected the American people, including John Paul Mac Issac.
Mac Issac was hired to repair Hunter Biden’s laptop in April 2019. He is now suing Twitter for $500 million, claiming the platform defamed him when they censored the New York Post’s story on Hunter Biden.
“Thank God someone finally sued Twitter,” guest host Gregg Jarrett began, noting how strong Mac Isaac’s case is. “I hope Isaacs wins because they ruined his business by falsely accusing him of being a hacker.”
Carter agreed, explaining that once Mac Isaac turned over the information in the laptop to the FBI, he also informed Rudy Giuliani of the information because he was afraid nothing was being done.
“The FBI sat on this information for quite some time, nobody let the cat out of the bag, so to speak, about what was going on with Hunter Biden. And now we know there’s an ongoing FBI investigation into the son of the President-elect Joe Biden,” Carter said.
She continued, “This is a very serious concern because it’s not just about money laundering, but it’s connections with foreign nations and foreign companies that are connected to the Chinese Communist party allegedly, as well as Ukraine. These are very serious allegations and they implicate a national security status for the United States.”
Shortly after the Post published its story on Hunter Biden, Twitter suspended the newspaper’s Twitter account and prevented users from sharing links to the story, citing a policy against “distribution of hacked material.”
Media outlets across the country imitated Twitter’s actions by choosing to suppress the Hunter Biden story and not report on it.
“What a disservice to the American people. What a failure on the part of the media that is supposed to be open, that is supposed to present the facts so the American people can make the best judgment possible before an election,” Carter said.
“When you think about what happened with Hunter Biden here, and the information that’s presented, it’s really distressing to understand the media would rather withhold that information from the public because of their own bias towards President Trump than actually do their job.”

Congressman-elect Madison Cawthorn wants to forge a ‘new Republican Party’ that inspires young voters

Congressman-elect Madison Cawthorn wants to forge a ‘ new Republican Party ’ that inspires young voters At age 25 , Congressman-elect Madison Cawthorn ( R-NC ) will be the youngest person in Congress , making a name for himself before he was even elected back in November , having trounced a candidate backed by President Donald Trump in a conservative North Carolina district .

Religious Oppression in China Worsening

This story was first published by The Dark Wire Investigation Foundation The Kaifeng Jews are apart of a small Jewish community in Kaifeng , in the Henan province of China .
About 1,000 people make up the Jewish community in Kaifeng .
Deng Xiaoping was the leader of the People ’ s Republic of China until 1989 .
Under his leadership , the Kaifeng Jews were able to rebuild a small synagogue and practice their religion freely .
The Jewish community in Kaifeng felt alive again .
In 2013 , Xi Jinping became the president of China .
Under his @ @ @ @ @ @ @ became strictly forbidden .
All Jewish signs were removed and the Kaifeng synagogue was turned into a “ Community Comprehensive Cultural Service Center ” by authorities .
Personnel assigned by the government monitored the location to ensure no illegal activities were taking place , Bitterwinter.org reports .
Only religion approved by the government is allowed .
“ Judaism is not one of the five authorized religions , believers were told , and therefore is illegal , ” authorities tell the community , according to Bitterwinter.org .
During religious holidays , Kaifeng Jews are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ report them to the police for celebrating .
The religious oppression in China is present to this day , as Xi Jinping is still in power and prohibits the Kaifeng Jews from practicing their religion freely .

The Chinese Coast Guard and its maritime militia sailed into Philippine waters around the Second Thomas Shoal in the South China Sea, firing water cannons at Philippine vessels and crew seeking to re-supply a Philippine ship within the Philippines’ Exclusive Economic Zone. The US State Department called such actions by China “inconsistent with international law” and “unwarranted interference in lawful Philippine maritime operations.” The State Department has maintained that China has “no lawful claim” to that area.
But rather than standing down, China is attempting to gaslight the Philippines and the world into accepting its narrative. A spokesman for China’s Ministry of National Defense stated that China “has sovereignty” over the area, which it calls “Nansha Qundao, including Ren’ai Jiao,” according to Xinhua. The area in dispute has always been a part of China, according to Global Times.
The CCP press also states that China “lawfully intercepted” the Philippine vessels, China’s actions towards the Philippines “was professional, restrained, and beyond reproach,” and that the “Philippine side ignored China’s goodwill and sincerity.”
Chinese media also paints the US, not China, as the aggressor. According to a spokesman from China’s Foreign Ministry, the US is “blatantly support[ing] the Philippines’ violation of China’s sovereignty, and its plot is doomed to fail,” according to Global Times. In responding to the incident, the US “continues to hype up the longstanding disputes between China [and its neighbors]” in order “to maintain hegemony and create a ‘security trap’” with those neighbors, according to the president of a Beijing think tank as cited by China Daily. The US has “no right to meddle” in the South China Sea” and is “creating trouble and sowing discord,” according to a spokesman for China’s Ministry of National Defense as cited by that same article.
The CCP press pushes an alternative reality of international law to buttress its claims. The Philippines, not China, is in violation of international law, according to spokesmen of China’s Foreign Ministry and Coast Guard as cited by Global Times. The Philippines committed “illegal” acts by re-supplying its ship, and having its ship there in the first place, according to Global Times. Philippines v. China, or the South China Sea Arbitration, is “‘illegal, null and void’ as it violates international law[…]” according to a spokesman from the Chinese foreign ministry, as cited by China Daily. The spokesman further said that “China does not accept or recognize it, and will never accept any claim or action based on the [arbitration]. This position is clear and firm, and is a legitimate step to uphold the international rule of law.” A Global Times article similarly referred to the arbitration as the “so called South China Sea arbitration,” and that it is “illegal and invalid.”
China continues to bully its neighbors in the South China Sea. At the same time, it wages a sophisticated propaganda effort aimed at obscuring this fact to further its hegemony in the region. The United States needs a clear policy to lead its allies in the region against China’s growing threat.

saraacater--2020-12-31--Rabbi’s op-ed slams ‘The Jewish Left’s Warnock Whitewash’

Managing Director of the Coalition of Jewish Values Rabbi Yaakov Menken penned an op-ed in Newsweek published Wednesday that slammed the “ Jewish left ” for ‘ whitewashing ’ Georgia Democratic Senate candidate Raphael Warnock ’ s antisemitism .
In his piece , Rabbi Menken argued that Jews on the Left have “ reduced anti-Semitism to a partisan weapon.

For example @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to condemn Rep. Ilhan Omar , D-MN , for antisemitism , while calling out neo-Nazi David Duke .
Rabbi Menken asserts that both figures “ say many of the same things about Jews.
” Still , he says , it ’ s “ many on the Jewish Left insist that only Duke is hateful—and even claim , deplorably , that it is Omar ’ s critics who are biased.
” Further , Rabbi Menken says the Jewish Left defended Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez , D-NY , when she compared migrant detention facilities at the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jewish organizations spoke out against Ocasio-Cortez , including Yad Vashem , the U.S .

” He adds , “ These activists were not trying to make a logical argument , but to serve as Jewish shields to block well-deserved criticism of AOC ’ s disgraceful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Leftists were charging President Donald Trump with antisemitism and “ white supremacy ” and ‘ blaming him ’ for the attack on the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh , he noted .
“ This is how the Jewish Left helped create the environment in which the Rev .

Warnock has time and time again proved that he ’ s not a friend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ reveals .
For example , “ Warnock claims to be a friend of Israel who rejects the odious comparison of Israel to apartheid South Africa and opposes BDS , ” but who last year signed a statement that “ demonized Israel , made precisely that comparison and endorsed ‘ utilizing economic pressure ’ against the country , ” the Rabbi wrote .

Managing Director of the Coalition of Jewish Values Rabbi Yaakov Menken penned an op-ed in Newsweek published Wednesday that slammed the “Jewish left” for ‘whitewashing’ Georgia Democratic Senate candidate Raphael Warnock’s antisemitism.
In his piece, Rabbi Menken argued that Jews on the Left have “reduced anti-Semitism to a partisan weapon.”
“According to them, whether an individual’s statements about Jews or Israel are bigoted depends entirely upon that individual’s political affiliation—or worse, his or her race,” wrote Rabbi Menken.

Further, Rabbi Menken says the Jewish Left defended Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-NY, when she compared migrant detention facilities at the southern border to concentration camps. Many Jewish organizations spoke out against Ocasio-Cortez, including Yad Vashem, the U.S. Holocaust Musem, and other prominent groups and individuals, Rabbi Menken notes.
However, the Jewish Left, Rabbi Menken says, “rushed to claim both that Ocasio-Cortez made no such comparison and that the comparison was appropriate—never mind that these claims were mutually contradictory.”
He adds, “These activists were not trying to make a logical argument, but to serve as Jewish shields to block well-deserved criticism of AOC’s disgraceful statements.”
All the while, Jewish Leftists were charging President Donald Trump with antisemitism and “white supremacy” and ‘blaming him’ for the attack on the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, he noted.

“He, as a spiritual leader, had misused his pulpit to bear false witness,” Rabbi Yaakov Menken
The letter received no response. Instead, many Jewish Democrats chose to criticize President Trump’s decision to appoint Richard Grenell to the Holocaust Memorial Council, inluding Halie Soifer, CEO of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, who accused the former U.S. Ambassador to Germany of ’emboldening actual neo-nazis.’
“The idea that a Republican might have done great things for the Jewish community is as inconceivable to them as the thought that they are endorsing a man who promoted hateful lies about Jews because he is a Democrat,” Menken adds.
Today, Trump appointed Richard Grenell to the Holocaust Memorial Council. As US Amb to Germany, Grenell sought to "empower" far-right parties & anti-establishment conservatives in Europe. Others have been unqualified, but he's emboldened actual neo-Nazis.https://t.co/ipqZzvZVzt — Halie Soifer (@HalieSoifer) December 22, 2020
Rabbi Menken concludes:
“It is up to the good citizens of Georgia to see past the whitewash. To use a person’s own minority status to shield him or her from the consequences of hate speech is identity politics in its most malignant form. Warnock repeatedly made anti-Semitic statements, for which he cannot be given a pass due to his progressive politics or his racial identity. The push for true equality and tolerance demands no less.”

saraacater--2020-12-31--Rep. Kinzinger predicts over 100 Republicans will challenge Electoral College results

Rep. Adam Kinzinger ( R-Ill. ) said Wednesday he believes more than 100 members of the GOP could challenge the Electoral College results when Congress certifies the electoral votes on Jan. 6 .
During an interview with Charlie Sykes on “ The Bulwark Podcast , ” Kinzinger said he thinks “ upwards of 100 ” GOP lawmakers could challenge the Nov. 3 election results .
“ I hope I ’ m wrong , ” Kinzinger said .
“ I ’ m guessing it could be upwards of 100.
” He added , “ I ’ m just over the undermining @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that ’ s being done with this.
” Joe Biden is expected to be certified as the 2020 presidential winner , but President Donald Trump has not conceded and is encouraging members of the GOP to challenge the results .
There has been an increasing number of GOP lawmakers who have said they will support Trump ’ s effort in overturning the election results , including most recently Sen. Josh Hawley ( R-Mo . )
and Rep. Jefferson Van Drew ( R-N.J. ) “ Somebody has to stand up here , ” Hawley @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Wednesday .
“ You ’ ve got 74 million Americans who feel disenfranchised , who feel like their vote doesn ’ t matter , and this is the one opportunity that I have as a United States senator , this process right here , my one opportunity to stand up and say something and that ’ s exactly what I ’ m going to do .

saraacater--2020-01-30--Rep. Lee Zeldin: If Witnesses Are To Be Called, Schiff Should Be Number One

Congressman Lee Zeldin ( R-NY ) told The Sara Carter Show Monday that he expects an acquittal of President Donald Trump in the impeachment trial before the end of the week but added if witnesses are to be called the full Senate needs to hear testimony from Rep. Adam Schiff .
Zeldin , who is also one of Trump ’ s attorney ’ s during impeachment , said Schiff is a material fact witness in the impeachment trial .
Why ?
Because Schiff , who is Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee and House Manager arguing for the impeachment of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ about his committee ’ s contact with the so-called whistleblower before he submitted his report to the Intelligence Community Inspector General .
After all , the origination of Trump ’ s impeachment began with the whistleblower complaint submitted to Intelligence Community Inspector General Michael Atkinson .
More importantly , evidence surfaced during the House impeachment hearing that Schiff ’ s committee had met with the whistleblower prior to drafting the report that was given to the IG .
When it was revealed that the whistleblower was in contact with Schiff ’ s committee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ eventually had to admit that committee members did meet with the whistleblower .
He , however , continues to deny knowing the whistleblower .
Zeldin told this reporter during the podcast , that Schiff has “ collected so many Pinocchios and should have collected so many more Pinocchios , ” referring to The Washington Post ’ s fact checking , which gives anywhere from 0 to 5 Pinocchios for lies .
Schiff ’ s explanation and failure to disclose that his committee met with the whistleblower to discuss the report received four Pinocchios @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that going forward The Post calls it four Adam Schiffs , ” said Zeldin .
“ It ’ s unreal listening to him and he already got caught in this lie .
We know that the whistleblower was in touch with his team before that person was even a whistleblower , before that person had hired a whistleblower attorney and Adam Schiff said , that the whistleblower should be called ( to testify ) so that we can hear what this person has to say and then he changed his mind only after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , was classified testimony provided to the House behind closed doors from Inspector General Atkinson during the House impeachment proceedings .
Atkinson ’ s testimony is now being investigated by senior Republican House members who say Atkinson either lied during his testimony or needs to clarify his statements to the committee .
Ranking Member of the Intelligence Committee Devin Nunes ( R-CA ) first revealed the investigation on The Sara Carter Show .
As for the ongoing Senate impeachment trial , Zeldin expects it to conclude before the end of the week .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ tomorrow or maybe Saturday , we hopefully will see an acquittal of the president , ” said Zeldin .
“ I don ’ t want to see a dismissal .
I don ’ t want to see a motion to just end the trial .
“ The President should be found not guilty of what they are accusing him of and they ’ re not even accusing him of breaking any law , they say no one ’ s above the law , but they don ’ t even allege in the articles @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , ” he said .
“ So this is really a moment in time that our country is ready to move past and it ’ s amazing how much this president was able to get done through it over the last few months and we ’ ve seen it over the course of this week with him signing the USMCA and a day before announcing a very detailed proposal to try to resolve a longstanding conflict in the Middle East.
” “ With the economy going as well as it is and Soleimani @ @ @ @ @ @ @ much he ’ s accomplished during it and can only make you imagine how much more once it ’ s done , ” he said .
To listen to Zeldin ’ s interview and find out what he has to say about former National Security Advisor John Bolton go to The Sara Carter Show .
