Kari Lake

Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake wants Democrats and the corrupt corporate media, which constantly demonize the more than 74 million people who voted for former President Donald Trump in the 2020 election, to know there’s nothing wrong with asking questions about election irregularities. In response to a question from what appeared to be a journalist at a campaign event, Lake made that abundantly clear.

“You said you feel like Joe Biden is dividing the country, but do you feel like Donald Trump is doing the same by falsely telling people that he won that election when he lost it?” the man asked at a recent “Kari Lake for Governor” event.

It’s a dishonest, straw-man question meant to bait the Trump endorsee into giving the corporate media ammo for their incessant, ridiculous “election denier” smears against candidates such as Lake, but the Republican was unfazed.

“Since when can we not ask questions about our elections?” Lake asked. “As a journalist for many years, I was a journalist after 2016 and I distinctly remember many people, just like you, asking a lot of questions about the 2016 election results, and nobody tried to shut you up.”

Lake’s point is valid. Hillary Clinton, Biden’s Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, and a whole slew of congressional Democrats denied that former President Donald Trump was legitimately elected in 2016. Not only that, but they still tout and fundraise on the lie that Trump colluded with Russia to steal the election.

“I don’t see how asking questions about an election where there were many problems is dividing a country,” Lake explained. “What I do see dividing a country is shutting people down, censoring people, canceling people, trying to destroy people’s lives when they do ask questions.”

According to Lake, there’s nothing wrong with Americans exercising their freedom of speech to ask questions about elections. Yet the free press that is protected by the same Constitutional Amendment guaranteeing a right to speech repeatedly uses it to tarnish election-integrity supporters.

“Last I heard, we still have the Constitution. It’s hanging by a thread thanks to some of the work some people in this area have done. But we’re going to save that Constitution and we’re going to bring back freedom of speech. And maybe someday you’ll thank us for that,” Lake concluded.

Biden Blocked From Changing Title IX by Federal Judge

Federal Judge Blocks Biden’s Civil Rights Scheme

(RightWing.org) – The Department of Education (DOE) recently published its proposed changes to Title IX protections to enforce a January 2021 executive order President Joe Biden signed to combat discrimination based on an individual’s gender identity and sexual orientation. However, a federal judge from Tennessee’s Eastern District just sided with a group of 20 state attorneys general who filed a lawsuit to block the DOE’s effort.

On July 15, Judge Charles Atchley Jr. issued a temporary restraining order preventing the implementation of the proposed changes in 20 states that have laws restricting transgender students’ access to sports and use of toilet facilities based on their gender identity.

Sarah Campbell, Tennessee’s former associate solicitor general, presented oral arguments on behalf of the 20 plaintiffs in late 2021. She told the court the DOE was attempting to rewrite federal anti-discrimination laws in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act and state sovereignty protections granted by the Constitution’s Tenth Amendment. She also said the DOE’s efforts undermined the states’ “authority to enforce” their own laws, causing direct injury.

Additionally, attorneys for the plaintiffs argued the DOE’s actions posed a “credible threat” to their ability to receive access to future federal funding. They also argued that forcing schools to use transgender students’ preferred pronouns violated the First Amendment.

Judge Atchley’s ruling, which has been seen as a win for women in sports, blocks the DOE from implementing its changes to Title IX until the final resolution of the matter in the courts.
