Johnson hit the national spotlight at the start of the month, when President Trump’s legal team presented what they allege was evidence of election fraud, backed up by witnesses, at a hearing in Michigan.
The State Representative interrupted proceedings multiple times, demanding witnesses be put under oath, and claiming that State Rep. Matt Hall, the Committee Chair, was “allowing people to come in here and lie.”
Rudy Giuliani, President Trump’s lawyer, told the panel at the time that every witness they were presenting had “sworn an affidavit as to all these facts.”
Hima Kolanagireddy, the witness who Johnson had interrupted, then assured her that she was absolutely willing to testify under oath if she wanted her to, and her story would not change.
“If it is a lie it may change because a liar has to have a lot of memory power,” Kolanagireddy argued. “But if it is the truth, you can ask me in the middle of the night and it will still be the same.”

thepoliticalinsider--2020-12-09--Report: Migrant Caravans Ready To Test Biden’s New Immigration Policies

A Bloomberg News report indicates that multiple migrant caravans are forming in Central America and are heading for the border in the coming weeks .
The caravans represent an “ early test ” for President-elect Joe Biden and his promised efforts to abolish President Trump ’ s substantial immigration reforms , according to Bloomberg .
The report cites Jose Luis Gonzalez , coordinator of the Guatemala Red Jesuita con Migrantes , who advises “ there are going to be caravans , and in the coming weeks it will increase.
” Gonzalez notes that it is Biden ’ s promises to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that are , in part , motivating the caravans to make a move .
“ Biden has pledged to abolish many of the migration policies of Donald Trump , including prolonged detention and separation of families , which were designed to deter illegal migration , ” Bloomberg explains .
“ This encourages more impoverished Central Americans to make the trip and test the Biden administration.

Perhaps it is a report this week that Joe Biden intends to hire a “ high-ranking ” official at the Department of Justice ( DOJ ) whose sole job and focus will be to systematically undo President Trump ’ s immigration policies .
Perhaps it is promise after promise from the Biden campaign leading up to the election that he would create a pathway to citizenship for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” Or , perhaps it was his vow as President-elect to grant mass amnesty to over 11 million illegal immigrants within the first 100 days of his administration .
“ I ’ m going to make a commitment in the first 100 days , I will send an immigration bill to the United States Senate with a pathway to citizenship for over 11 million undocumented people in America , ” Biden vowed during an NBC interview .
Whatever the reason , as Gonzalez states , the migrant caravans are encouraged to test Biden @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Their First-Ever Ratings Win Over Fox News Biden Wants to Keep His Open Borders Policies Quiet One of the most remarkable pieces of the Bloomberg report is the fact that the incoming Biden administration wants to keep their open-border policies on the down-low .
“ Biden ’ s advisers are hoping to shift away from Trump ’ s policies without signaling that the border has been flung open , according to people familiar with the planning , ” they claim .
This , despite the aforementioned examples of the President-elect declaring that essentially @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wide open .
Not only will this be a test of Biden ’ s immigration policies , but it will be a test of his strict pandemic lockdown and mask mandate rules .
Gonzalez notes that the caravans aren ’ t concerned about these things saying , “ People are no longer scared of the coronavirus.
” Will the new President allow people to break the law regarding our nation ’ s sovereign borders only to have them arrested for not wearing a mask or improperly social distancing ?
If you ’ re @ @ @ @ @ @ @ re encouraging the spread of the pandemic .
On an interesting side note , the Los Angeles Times ran a fake news story in October suggesting migrant caravans were being organized by Trump supporters to sway the election .
And yet , they ’ re still coming it seems .

A Bloomberg News report indicates that multiple migrant caravans are forming in Central America and are heading for the border in the coming weeks.
The caravans represent an “early test” for President-elect Joe Biden and his promised efforts to abolish President Trump’s substantial immigration reforms, according to Bloomberg.
The report cites Jose Luis Gonzalez, coordinator of the Guatemala Red Jesuita con Migrantes, who advises “there are going to be caravans, and in the coming weeks it will increase.”

Or, perhaps it was his vow as President-elect to grant mass amnesty to over 11 million illegal immigrants within the first 100 days of his administration.
“I’m going to make a commitment in the first 100 days, I will send an immigration bill to the United States Senate with a pathway to citizenship for over 11 million undocumented people in America,” Biden vowed during an NBC interview.
Whatever the reason, as Gonzalez states, the migrant caravans are encouraged to test Biden out.

Biden Wants to Keep His Open Borders Policies Quiet
One of the most remarkable pieces of the Bloomberg report is the fact that the incoming Biden administration wants to keep their open-border policies on the down-low.
“Biden’s advisers are hoping to shift away from Trump’s policies without signaling that the border has been flung open, according to people familiar with the planning,” they claim.
This, despite the aforementioned examples of the President-elect declaring that essentially, the border is about to be flung wide open.
Not only will this be a test of Biden’s immigration policies, but it will be a test of his strict pandemic lockdown and mask mandate rules.
Gonzalez notes that the caravans aren’t concerned about these things saying, “People are no longer scared of the coronavirus.”
Will the new President allow people to break the law regarding our nation’s sovereign borders only to have them arrested for not wearing a mask or improperly social distancing?
If you’re encouraging the migration, then you’re encouraging the spread of the pandemic.
On an interesting side note, the Los Angeles Times ran a fake news story in October suggesting migrant caravans were being organized by Trump supporters to sway the election.
And yet, they’re still coming it seems.

Shapiro responded, “It was expected. This election has been over for weeks, and the important thing to people here is that their voices were heard. It was a secure election.”
“I would say while this is breaking news, this is particularly a momentous day,” Shapiro added.
“We have known the results of the election since early November, we’ve known there was no fraud, we’ve know that no legal mechanism for interference, so how do the results change.”
The Pennsylvania Attorney General then addressed the lawsuit.
“This is one of dozens of lawsuits that we’ve won because the suit that had been filed had no merit,” Shapiro said.
SCOTUS rejected a request made by U.S. congressman Mike Kelly, a Trump ally, and other Pennsylvania Republicans who filed a lawsuit after the Nov. 3 election arguing that Pennsylvania’s 2019 expansion of mail-in voting was illegal under state law. https://t.co/VWaEEBPD1y pic.twitter.com/sXSgSdlGxN — Reuters Legal (@ReutersLegal) December 8, 2020
Shapiro Calls Trump’s Legal Efforts ‘Sad’
He then called Team Trump’s efforts “sad.”
“Wolf, I’ll just say this, it is sad, really,” Shapiro said. “These suits are being filed in court, in a court of law, but really they are for an audience of one, and that is the Republican President of the United States, and some Republicans are just too afraid to stand up to him.”
Blitzer said, “They’re being thrown out of all sorts of courts, local courts, state courts, now the U.S. Supreme Court. There was one sentence, attorney general, one-sentence order by the U.S. Supreme Court. What sort of message does that send about how the Supreme Court views these efforts?”
🚨BREAKING: SCOTUS has rejected Rep. Kelly's attempt to throw out the votes of 2.5 million Pennsylvanians. This is the case Senator Cruz promised Trump he would personally argue. I guess we'll just have to imagine how that would have gone. Laws matter.https://t.co/JJPQt9vC5t — Josh Shapiro (@JoshShapiroPA) December 8, 2020

‘The President Saying He Won Doesn’t Make It So’
Shapiro replied, “It sends a crystal clear message, and it is time for us to move on. It is time for us to stop stirring the pot, stop trying to create confusion, to stop wasting resources, and to move on with a transition in this country.”

Shapiro then emphasized that he believed Trump is grasping at straws.
“Nothing that the president says, no matter how many phone calls he makes, will stop those electors from meeting on Monday and issuing 20 votes for Joe Biden,” Shapiro insisted.
“The president saying he won doesn’t make it so,” Shapiro emphasized.

Yes, as she and this publication have pointed out, Biden is likely to be inaugurated. But given the way he got to office he shouldn’t expect any slack. In the fine tradition of what’s good for the goose is good for the gander, he will get back at least what the Democrats gave the president over the last four years and hopefully much more than that.
No Justice on this Election, No Healing.
You actually seem like a nice guy, really. So let me say this. If Biden becomes the president, the global reset will be accelerated and America will be gutted and will be defenceless. If Trump manages to stay, the streets will burn. There is no healing in sight. None. pic.twitter.com/tKLADU35Dw — Pete James Peterson (@PJPNIG) December 8, 2020

Biden Caters To Far Left
However, Biden “is tiptoeing right now around the far left. He is more afraid of upsetting them then alienating the more than 74 million Americans who turned out for President Trump…”
“As long as conservative Americans believe that President Trump is the only person standing between them and tyranny, they will remain fiercely loyal to him,” Ingraham said. “They believe he is one of the few who actually fights for their values and for their families, and in watching everything that’s going on right now, who could blame them?”
No one. And the president may well lead the opposition to the Biden administration. It will then hopefully give him some satisfaction to give it right back to the Democrats, in spades.
