Wisconsin Republican Announces Subpoenas, Launches ‘Top- to-Bottom’ Review of 2020 Election in Select Counties https://trendingpolitics.com/breaki...iew-of-2020-election-in-select-counties-knab/ The Republican Chairwoman of the State Assembly in Wisconsin is launching a “top-to-bottom” review of 2020 elections in two select counties in the state. State Rep. Janel Brandtjen announced that Milwaukee and Brown counties were served subpoenas to hand over materials related to the election. Chairwoman Brandtjen made the announcement in a release on Friday. “Today, State Representative Janel Brandtjen (R-Menomonee Falls) announced the issuance of subpoenas for election materials from Milwaukee and Brown counties in furtherance of the Assembly Campaigns and Elections Committee’s top-to-bottom investigation of the 2020 Presidential General Election, as directed by the enrolled 2021 Assembly Resolution 15,” Brandtjen said.
Amazing that American tax payers continue to do the bidding of irrational people like Buy1Sell2 and Donald Trump. It's as if you like to burn money for sport.
Idiot Republican woman -- who does not have the power to issue Subpoenas -- tries to issue subpoenas. Promptly gets told off by here own party legislative leaders and mocked by the targets of her "subpoenas". Republican issues subpoenas for Wisconsin election info https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/article/Republican-issues-subpoenas-for-Wisconsin-16369661.php The leader of the Wisconsin Assembly's elections committee issued subpoenas Friday demanding extensive election materials, including all ballots and voting machines from two counties in what she called a “top-to-bottom” investigation of the state's 2020 presidential results. Republican state Rep. Janel Brandtjen sent the subpoenas to Milwaukee and Brown counties. She said last month that she wanted to conduct a review similar to a widely discredited audit performed in Arizona. Brandtjen and other Wisconsin Republicans traveled to that state in June to observe the review. It's unclear, however, whether the Wisconsin review will happen. Two other investigations of the election results are already underway and Assembly Speaker Robin Vos signaled that he doesn't support a third probe. The Legislature's attorneys said in a June memo that only Vos has the power to issue subpoenas. (More at above url)
‘Disgusting Use of Taxpayers’ Money’: Former Judge Heading Wisconsin Election Review Attends MyPillow CEO’s Election Symposium https://lawandcrime.com/2020-electi...iew-attends-mypillow-ceos-election-symposium/ A former Wisconsin State Supreme Court Judge who was hired to lead an Arizona-style investigation into the Badger State’s 2020 election methods spent taxpayer dollars to travel to renowned conspiracy theorist and MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell’s election fraud symposium in South Dakota this week, several local news outlets reported. Former Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman told the Associated Press that he was attending the highly ridiculed gathering as part of his responsibilities as special counsel in the probe of the 2020 election. “I’m here out of an honest effort to find out if anyone has any information that will be helpful in carrying out my duties as special counsel,” Gableman said as he was on his way to the Sioux Falls auditorium where the conference was being held. Gableman in July was hired by Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Robin Vos to conduct a four-month investigation that will see him earning $11,000 per month, according to a report from the AP. Gableman also told the wire service that he was in Arizona last week to observe the widely chastised election audit being performed by non-accredited cybersecurity firm Cyber Ninjas — saying he “learned a lot there that will be helpful to my investigation.” Gableman declined to go into details or specifics concerning precisely what he learned that would be useful as a result of his trips to Arizona or Sioux Falls. Just weeks after the presidential election, Gableman attended a rally for Donald Trump where he told the crowd that the election was stolen from the former president. He called it “systematically unjust.” Other Wisconsin election officials who attended Lindell’s event included state Wisconsin Elections Commission member Bob Spindell and state Rep. Tim Ranthum (R-Campbellsport). Spindell told the Journal-Sentinel that he was at the symposium to learn more about the potential for voting machines being hacked. “One thing I think I’ve learned is anything can be hacked,” he told the outlet. He also said that Gableman arrived at the event late on Tuesday evening and spent the entire day there on Wednesday. “He was right in the middle trying to absorb everything that was said,” Spindell said of the former justice. State Sen. Jon Erpenbach, a Democrat from West Point, told the AP that Gableman’s presence at the Lindell event is a red flag that ultimately discredits any report that will be produced. According to a report from the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, Ramthun spoke at Lindell’s symposium. There, he claimed that software in voting machines approved by the Wisconsin Elections Commission for use in the 2020 presidential election were capable of “scrubbing” votes. That theory that has been debunked by election officials who have incessantly noted that Wisconsin’s elections machines are not connected to the internet and that many counties still use fax machines to send final vote counts to the state. “If I’m told that Dominion is currently in the process of scrubbing the machines in my state, I’ve got a big problem with that,” Ramthun said, according to the Journal-Sentinel. “And the first thing I want to do is, how do I stop that right now in its tracks? How do I stop that to prevent further damage from occurring so that we can continue the process of a true, full forensic investigation to get the facts out to find closure.” Spindell told the Journal-Sentinel that he was at the symposium to learn more about the potential for voting machines being hacked. “One thing I think I’ve learned is anything can be hacked,” he told the outlet. He also said that Gableman arrived at the event late on Tuesday evening and spent the entire day there on Wednesday. “He was right in the middle trying to absorb everything that was said,” Spindell said of the former justice. State Sen. Jon Erpenbach, a Democrat from West Point, told the AP that Gableman’s presence at the Lindell event is a red flag that ultimately discredits any report that will be produced. “If there’s a problem in Wisconsin, election clerks will tell you,” Erpenbach said. “All Mike Lindell will do is try to sell you a pillow. Whatever report he’s going to produce isn’t going to be worth the paper it’s printed on.” The Democrat called Gableman’s trip a “disgusting use of taxpayers’ money.”
Wisconsin Legislature Votes to Approve ‘Special Counsel’ to Audit 2020 Election https://trendingpolitics.com/wiscon...-special-counsel-to-audit-2020-election-knab/ The Wisconsin legislature has approved an audit for the 2020 election. The news was reported by Right Side Broadcasting Network on Friday. “Wisconsin Republican state legislators approved an audit of the state’s 2020 presidential election results, to begin in the coming weeks,” RSBN reported. “Former state Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman was appointed to oversee the investigation of the election results.”
The Wisconsin election frauditor pushes false claims and threatens to jail mayors for not undermining the electoral process. He is about to have his ass handed to him by the legal system. Wisconsin Republicans’ Election Investigator Threatens To Jail Mayors Of Green Bay, Madison https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/...threatens-to-jail-mayors-of-green-bay-madison An attorney leading an investigation of the 2020 elections for Wisconsin’s legislative Republicans has threatened to jail the mayors of Wisconsin’s second- and third-largest cities if they don’t meet his demands. The mayors, for their part, say the attorney is wildly distorting reality, and that their attempts to reach him have gone unanswered. Michael Gableman, a former state Supreme Court justice who’s leading a partisan review of the last presidential elections, filed petitions for “writ of attachment” against the two mayors in county court this week, accusing the mayors of failing to appear for testimony without explanation. But both mayors say they’ve reached out to Gableman’s office and not heard back. Gableman’s petitions cite a Wisconsin statute that spells out the conditions under which a judge “may commit the person to close confinement in the county jail” if that person fails produce lawfully required testimony. “Petitioner respectfully requests that the Waukesha County Circuit Court issue a writ of attachment on the person of Eric Genrich and order the Waukesha County Sheriff to execute such commitment until Eric Genrich has fulfilled her [sic] legal duties in respondent to said subpoena,” the petition reads, incorrectly referring to Genrich, the mayor of Green Bay, using the “her” pronoun. An identical petition also seeks the sheriff’s action against Satya Rhodes-Conway, the mayor of Madison. PBS Wisconsin published the court documents Thursday. A lawyer for Green Bay reacted forcefully to the filing — which he characterized as “seeking an order to commit Mayor Genrich into custody at the Waukesha County Jail” — saying that it wasn’t legally enforceable and that the mayor would be pursuing legal sanctions against Gableman. “Based on our initial review, the Petition is not only lacking in legal merit and built upon a gross distortion of the relevant facts, but it departs so greatly from legal standards that Mayor Genrich intends to serve the Special Counsel with a motion for sanctions,” wrote attorney Jeffrey Mandell, in a letter published by the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. Madison Mayor Rhodes-Conway said in a statement Thursday that the Madison city attorney had reached out to Gableman’s office, but that neither Gableman nor his attorneys had responded — “further underscoring the abject lack of professionalism on Gableman’s team.” “Attorney Gableman apparently missed the October headlines saying that I was proud of and willing to testify publicly about Madison’s handling of the 2020 election,” Rhodes-Conway said. The Wisconsin effort is a cousin to other Republican efforts to cast doubt on the 2020 election results. Gableman used state funds to visit the Arizona “audit” as well as MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell’s “Cyber Symposium,” where the bedding magnate failed to deliver promised evidence of Chinese election hacking. A few days after the 2020 election, Gableman said, “I don’t think anyone here can think of anything more systematically unjust than a stolen election.” Officials in both Wisconsin cities said they had not been served with Gableman’s suit, but had seen copies online, the Journal-Sentinel noted. The Waukesha County Circuit Court has scheduled a hearing for Gableman’s petitions on Dec. 22, the Wisconsin State Journal reported. Wisconsin’s Democratic attorney general, Josh Kaul, sought a restraining order in October to prevent Gableman from enforcing his subpoenas. A hearing on that matter is scheduled for Dec. 23. The petitions come as Gableman has grown increasingly publicly aggressive with his investigation — and alongside other alarming developments in the state, including Republicans threatening to take over election authority from the body they created six years ago to govern voting, the Wisconsin Election Commission. The sheriff of Racine last month also recommended that the majority of commission members face felony charges. Gableman has been particularly focused on Mark Zuckerberg’s role in the 2020 election — specifically, dollars donated by the Zuckerbergs for the benefit of local election administrators struggling to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic amid the last presidential elections. “Of all the clerks and of all the mayors, those two simply failed without reason or excuse to appear for their depositions and answer questions about how and to what extent they allowed Mark Zuckerberg’s employees to plan and administer their city’s election in November 2020,” Gableman said during testimony before the Assembly Committee on Campaigns and Elections, PBS Wisconsin noted. At the same hearing, Gableman said it was “very clear” that Zuckerberg’s goal was to defeat Trump and elect Biden in 2020. He then said, referring to one non-profit official at a group that benefited from Zuckerberg’s donations, “we may be looking at more robust ways to secure his presence.”
Pro-Trump Group Releases Findings on Election Fraud in Wisconsin and, Yeah, Trump Won't Like This One Bit https://secondnexus.com/wisconsin-law-liberty-election-audit For more than a year now, former President Donald Trump and his allies have promoted delusions that the 2020 election was "stolen" by Democrats coordinating with election companies like Dominion Voting Systems to perpetrate widespread election fraud. This is, of course, nonsense. Trump's claims of fraud were tossed out in more than 50 lawsuits. Election audits in a number of swing states Trump lost found no evidence of widespread fraud. Trump's Attorney General at the time, William Barr, reached the same conclusion. And now, a right-wing group in Wisconsin has come up with nothing as well. Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) recently released the results of a 10 month investigation of approximately 20 thousand ballots and nearly 30 thousand absentee ballot envelopes. The conclusion? "There was no evidence of widespread voter fraud. In all likelihood, more eligible voters cast ballots for Joe Biden than Donald Trump. We found little direct evidence of fraud, and for the most part, an analysis of the results and voting patterns does not give rise to an inference of fraud" But wait, there's more. Key targets of Republican election fraud fantasies were electronic voting systems, such as Dominion. The company has filed multiple defamation suits for billions of dollars after Trump and his allies claimed the company switched Trump votes to Biden votes—claims that led to harassment and death threats of its employees and the erosion of its reputation across the country. Unsurprisingly, WILL's report found: "Donald Trump won communities that used Dominion voting machines with 57.2%, an increase from 2016. WILL could not access voting machines as a part of this review, but we did model the various machines to evaluate their effect on the outcome of the election. Just 14.7% of Wisconsin jurisdictions employ the Dominion voting machines, maligned by many as a culprit in changing votes for Joe Biden." (More at above url)
