Why Is It So Hard to Find ‘Actual Proof’ of Fraud?

Lou Dobbs on his Fox Business show:

“We’re eight weeks from the election, and we still don’t have verifiable, tangible support for the crimes that everyone knows were committed — that is, defrauding other citizens who voted with fraudulent votes. We know that’s the case in Nevada, we know it’s the case in Pennsylvania and a number of other states, but we have had a devil of a time finding actual proof. Why?”

I'm pretty sure the people who live in the real world know why they can't find the purported fraud.

Cumulus Media tells its conservative talk show hosts to stop talking about a stolen election

“Last week, a radio executive at Atlanta-based Cumulus Media sent a memo telling its talk show hosts to stop spreading rhetoric about a stolen election or face termination.”

“’We need to help induce national calm NOW,’ Brian Philips, executive vice president of content for Cumulus, wrote in an internal memo after a mob attacked the national Capitol building, first reported by Inside Music Media.”

Ehhh I see what you’re going for there but that one missed the mark a little.

Supposedly unbiased social media platforms arbitrarily deciding what can and cannot be said and by whom seems a bit more complicated and dangerous than an exec telling his people to distance themselves from a failed mad man.

I listened to Rudy's "It was ANTIFA" podcast. His sponsor was some sort of gold as an investment company, which promises free gold to people who sign up for the service.

“Supposedly unbiased.”  These are private sector entities. 

Bottom line:  I’m ok with social media companies moderating “speech” that crosses the line into “incitement to imminent lawless action or true threats.”

I also think an amendment to Section 230 should be proposed that would make social media companies liable for civil damages for violent threats posted on their respective platforms.

They are currently liable criminal conduct.

In addition to being private sector entities, they are immune from civil liability for user generated content, even if they 'screen' or 'block' such content deemed to be 'offensive' (obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, whether or not such material is constitutionally protected).  That immunity implies a responsibility to edit content without bias.

Everyone knows that Lou Dobbs is jealous of cats who can lick their own assholes, so he cuts sponges into the exact size and shape of his own tongue, runs them under warm tap water, and then gently rubs his own asshole with the warm, moist sponge. Then, he licks the sponge while purring and meowing in order to get the full and complete experience. Why is it so hard to find proof of something that everyone knows definitely happens on a daily basis? Well, for one thing, China is suppressing the information. And George Soros. And the boogeyman (who is a RINO cuck by the way).

Does why Trumpkins are mad go here?

Trumpkins are mad because Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi allegedly made the National Guard sleep in a garage. Except it was not Joe Biden or Nancy Pelosi and they actually slept in hotels. They had to take breaks in hotels, but that was a mistake and was fixed.

Trumpkins are mad because Joe Biden allegedly called them White Supremacists in his inaugural address. Except Joe Biden actually denounced White Supremacists, but did not name names or a specific group.

Trumpkins are mad because Biden supposedly blocked a Trump plan to lower Insulin and Epi costs for poor people. Actually, this is part of a temporary freeze and review on last minute Trump executive actions and orders. This specific one could potentially harm community health centers while doing little to nothing to lower overall drug prices.

Trumpkins are mad because Joe Biden blocked construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline.

Trumpkins are mad because Joe Biden stopped construction of the border wall.

Diabetic ketoacidosis is a terrible way to die. It's what happens when you don't have enough insulin. Your blood sugar gets so high that your blood becomes highly acidic, your cells dehydrate, and your body stops functioning.
Diabetic ketoacidosis is how Nicole Smith-Holt lost her son. Three days before his payday. Because he couldn't afford his insulin.

That is sad. Making Community Health Centers pass along their discount is not the answer. 

"Community health centers staunchly opposed the 340B Insulin Pass-Through Rule, arguing that it would have added significant bureaucratic obligations to centers’ operations while making a relatively minimal impact on the costs of drugs provided to center patients. The 340B Insulin Pass-Through Rule was slated to go into effect today, Jan. 22, 2021."

More here: https://www.natlawreview.com/article/hhs-freezes-rule-affecting-community-health-center-s-340b-drug-discounts

"Former HHS leaders argued the drug rule would benefit patients who struggle to pay for expensive insulin and allergy medication. However, the health centers said they already pass on those savings and this rule is merely an administrative burden that paints them as entities that price-gouge patients. It’s not clear how many facilities would have to follow the rule or face funding restrictions."

If you truly care about affordable insulin; then you should probably support real healthcare reform.
