 The anarchist movement has a long history and encompasses a wide range of movements from the labor movement to the free love movement, from anarcho-communism to Rothbardian economics. Anarchist theory is not inherently violent, but there is a violent faction within the broader anarchist movement which is revealing itself once again in America. As the violent wing gets exposed, anarchists of all stripes will rally to defend their particular branch of the family tree while largely ignoring their violent cousins – the revolutionary anarchists.  Hearings will be held about the events of January 6th and you will hear it framed as White Supremacists, Trump Supporters, ANTIFA or simply left versus right.  All of that will be a distraction and will miss the bigger picture, as usual and the Revolutionary Anarchist faction will continue remain a mystery to the American public.  Welcome to American politics!

 
Some perhaps are only familiar with the peaceful forms of anarchy, extolling the virtues of harmonious existence in communes and mutual aid societies. On the peaceful side are anarcho-pacifists, Christian anarchists, free-love anarchists and free-education anarchists. Regardless of the benign, intellectual side with its laudable theories of mutual aid and self-determination, there has been a consistent wing of anarchism that embraces revolutionary violence as the primary tool of change. These are the individuals, the revolutionary anarchists, who seek to plunge America into chaos. These are also the people that give the government an excuse to sweep up anyone they don’t like into a broad dragnet by invoking the label “domestic terrorist.”
 
Anarchism is not widely understood by Americans today, even less understood is the historical divergence of individualist anarchists and collectivist anarchists after the failure of Robert Owen’s New Harmony commune. Individualist anarchist Benjamin Tucker and his followers in Boston were peaceful, yet they still regarded the state as wholly evil as illustrated in the Journal “Liberty.”
 
“It is an institution of force and as such incapable of being reformed. To Tucker and his comrades, the political process and voting are nothing more than mechanisms for the tyranny of the majority. Thus, they considered attempts to work within its structure to be futile.” -Edward P. Stringham
 
For some this “institution of force” could only be resisted by force. American history bears out the decidedly violent tendencies of the collectivist anarchist movement launched from Chicago and New York City. However, we should not lose sight of the fact that there are members of both the individualist and collectivist camp that believe in political violence. This fact makes the left-right dichotomy of less use in the present environment.
 
A Legacy of Violence
Historically, revolutionary anarchist factions advocated “PROPAGANDA Of The DEED,” – political violence, including bombings and targeted killings of members of the ruling class for the purpose of provoking broader violence and uprisings. 
 
“we preach not only action in and for itself, but also action as propaganda.” -Johan Most
 
Another part of their methodology was “EXPROPRIATION.” Expropriation means robbing/burglarizing people and businesses that are seen as part of the ruling class or as benefiting from their “evil system.”  This was on full display in the summer of 2020 with anarchists looting, robbing and burning local businesses across America; yet, this is nothing new in America’s revolutionary anarchist movement:
 
  • Revolutionary anarchist Luigi Galleani and his followers carried out assassination attempts and waves of bombings in cities across America and  from 1914 to 1932 in what they saw as attacks on “tyrants” and “enemies of the people.” Mail bombs were sent to public officials, businessmen and law enforcement.  A bombing at the home of the US Attorney General led to the sweeping Palmer Raids in 1919.
  •  Sacco and Vanzetti were famous anarchist martyrs who allegedly robbed a shoe factory as an act of Expropriation. The anger at the anarchists stoked a fervor that lead to their execution for the robbery. Having since become anarchist/progressive folk heroes, they were posthumously pardoned by Michael Dukakis.
  •  In the anarchist Haymarket Square bombing in Chicago, a labor rally against “police violence,” a bomb was thrown at a police officer. The incident left seven police and five civilians dead. 
  •  Revolutionary anarchists also carried out the notable Wall Street Bombings and the assassination of President William McKinley.
As the Palmer Raids teach us, the outcome of the anarchist violence is ALWAYS the same – the government reacts by taking more liberty away from the people, by targetting political oppposition and opposing views. Due process, freedom of speech, press, assembly, association privacy are all assaulted in reaction to the anarchist violence. In this way the revolutionary anarchists are a convenient band of useful idiots that serve the statist cause. A bit of irony to go with your tyranny.
 
 Still Going Today
The anarchist movement continues to thrive and the revolutionairies continue to organize.  In 1980, the First International Symposium on Anarchism was held in Portland, Oregon. In 1986 anarchists held the Haymarket Remembrance Conference in Chicago and then annual conventions in Minneapolis (1987), Toronto (1988), and San Francisco (1989).
 
In 1989 Love & Rage network formed in Chicago, infusing racial and other themes into the revolutionary anarchist movement:
 
“A new wave of radicalization is spreading around the world. Federations of anarchists are being organized in the U.S and Canada, and in other countries. The ‘platformist’ current within international anarchism, with its emphasis on the need for anarchists to organize themselves, is having worldwide effects. In these conditions, it is not surprising that there should be an interest in the last major attempt to build an anarchist federation in North America: the Love and Rage Revolutionary Anarchist Federation (L&R). Founded in 1989, it lasted to 1998, almost ten years, with branches in Mexico (Amor y Rabia) and in English-speaking Canada.” – A history of North American anarchist group Love & Rage
 
In 1998 the L&R Network split primarily over their organizing statement of beliefs and the argument of white privilege. L&R split into two new networks.  First, the “Fire By Night Organizing Committee,” which deliberately chose to conceal anarchism from its name “to create a new revolutionary politics more in tune with the conditions of the 21st century.” It maintained offices in NYC and San Francisco.
 
The second – the Fresh Revolutionary Anarchist Group, “a federation of collectives united around firm anarchist/anti-authoritarian politics and outlook, oriented to the working classes and most oppressed, and active in building Anti-Racist Action as an anti-authoritarian mass movement.” 
 
The movement continued organizing throughout the 90s and 2000s with numerous organizations and individuals: David Graeber, CrimetInc, Black Rose Anarchist Federation, Atlantic Anarchist Circle, Demanarchie newspaper collective, Common Ground Collective, Workers Solidarity Alliance, May First Anarchist Alliance, Four Star Anarchist Organization, Autonomy and Solidarity, Red and Black, and Wild Rose Collective and many others.
 
The revolutionary anarchist movement has manifested lately in the current ANTIFA movement and among elements of the BLM movement. It is no coincidence that the refrain of prominent organizers during the summer was “make America ungovernable.” This is not a Democrat or Republican movement. It is not a movement that follows a particular leader. Sadly, Americans can only perceive their world in these tribalistic terms, and this allows the revolutionary anarchists to hide behind the tribalistic fog that engulfs the minds of America partisans.  The revolutionary Anarchist movement is neither right nor left, it is right AND left.  Their tools is violence against people and property with the hopes of disrupting or destroying the state so that it may be abolished or replaced.
 
Not all anarchists are revolutionary anarchists, undoubtedly a majority of the anarchist family loves peace. But the REVOLUTIONARY anarchists do not.  And don’t be misled, contrary to what the name implies, the world of revolutionary anarchism is highly organized and well-funded. Revolutionary anarchism is not just an idea. It is real. It has real members and many come armed with pipe bombs and Molotov cocktails. 
 
I don’t excpect to hear this topic come up during any hearings.  America’s leaders pretend that they know nothing about this history.  They are only conerned with winning points for their team, so that they can maintain their power and position.  As usual the American people lose under the leadership of blind partisans who care only for themselves.  However, you can be informed and avoid the getting sucked into the useful idiot trap.

Did Trump “Incite” a Riot? A Memorandum of Law
by KrisAnne Hall JD
 

AUTHOR’S NOTE: If you are looking for some proactive measures to take to influence your US Senator, you have my permission and encouragement to send this to your Senators.  My thought is, even if you believe your Senator will disregard this settled law, you should send it anyway.  We should never be silent with truth and every elected officer should be presented with the truth so they cannot claim ignorance.  It would be a very powerful message if you could organize your circle of people to all send this Legal Memorandum.  If you have any questions, you can always reach me at KrisAnneHall.com 

Memorandum of Law
 
TO:        Members of the United States Senate
From:    KrisAnne Hall, JD
RE:        HR24 – Impeachment of Donald John Trump, President of the United States for High Crimes and Misdemeanors
Date:     January 13, 2021
 

Facts

              On January 6, 2021 a group of Americans assembled in Washington DC: some to protest the counting of Electoral College votes they believe were cast as a result of a fraudulent election, some to support President Trump, some to encourage the counting of the Electoral College votes, some to protest President Trump, and some to simply create chaos and destruction.  During this assembly some in this assemblage chose to engage in violence that resulted in damage to the Capitol building and the loss of life.  During this assembly of multiple groups and individuals, including President Donald Trump gave a speech, which transcripts are available.

              HR 24- Articles of Impeachment allege that the actions of those who carried out the violence are attributable to President Donald J Trump due to words uttered at a rally and thus subjects him to legal and constitutional impeachment from office pursuant to Article 2 section 4 of the US Constitution for “Incitement of Insurrection.”

Article 2 section 4 of the Constitution reads:

The President, Vice President and all Civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.

Questions Presented

  • Is President Donald Trump guilty of “Incitement of Insurrection” by inciting violence against the United States?
  • Is President Donald Trump subject to impeachment and conviction according to the Constitution under Article 2 section 4 of the Constitution for “Incitement of Insurrection?”

Answers & Discussion

Incitement has a very settled definition in law and the standard is referred to as the “Brandeburg Test” as resulting from Brandenburg v. Ohio, 395 US 444 (1969). 

The Brandenburg test was established in Brandenburg v. Ohio, 395 US 444 (1969), to determine when inflammatory speech intending to advocate illegal action can be restricted. In Brandenburg, a KKK leader gave a speech at a rally and, after speaking a laundry list of racial slurs, Brandenburg then said; “it’s possible that there might have to be some revengeance [sic] taken.”   In this opinion, the Supreme Court held that the government can only infringe upon freedom of speech by criminalizing speech when a two-prong standard created by this court is met.  The standard is as follows:

  • The speech is “directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action,” AND
  • The speech is “likely to incite or produce such action.”

Further Supreme Court opinions give specific direction on the application of the Brandenburg Test.  The Supreme Court in Hess v. Indiana (1973) applied the Brandenburg test to a case in which an Indiana University protestor said, “We’ll take the fucking street again” (or “later.”) The Supreme Court held that the university protestor’s profanity was protected under the Brandenburg test, as speech that “amounted to nothing more than advocacy of illegal action at some indefinite future time.” The Court held that “since there was no evidence, or rational inference from the import of the language, that his words were intended to produce, and likely to produce, imminent disorder, those words could not be punished by the State on the ground that they had a ‘tendency to lead to violence.’”

In NAACP v. Claiborne Hardware Co.(1982), Mr. Evers made threats of violence against anyone who refused to boycott white businesses. The Supreme Court applied the Brandenburg Test and found that Mr. Evers’ speech was protected under the principles of freedom of speech: “Strong and effective extemporaneous rhetoric cannot be nicely channeled in purely dulcet phrases. An advocate must be free to stimulate his audience with spontaneous and emotional appeals for unity and action in a common cause. When such appeals do not incite lawless action, they must be regarded as protected speech.”

The question is, Did President Donald Trump engage in speech that qualifies under the Brandenburg Test as inciting.  The only relevant evidence in this accusation will be the transcripts of President Trump’s speech.  In this transcript we see no language that fits the Brandenburg Test definition of inciting.  What a reader of this transcript will find is:

“We have come to demand that Congress do the right thing and only count the electors who have been lawfully slated, lawfully slated. I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.”

Using the Brandenburg Test, as established by the Supreme Court of the United States, it must be concluded that President Donald Trump’s speech did not rise to the criminal level of inciting.  Consistent with the Supreme Court’s opinions, the speaker over a group cannot be held accountable for the actions of that group unless the speaker “directed to inciting or producing imminent lawless action,” AND the speech is “likely to incite or produce such action.”  It is highly dubious to assert that directing a crowd to “peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard” incites violence and insurrection.  There can be disagreement as to the appropriate nature of President Donald Trump’s words in general.  There cannot be disagreement as to the statements made in his speech, since they are recorded and freely available. 

This is the only reasonable and moral way to maintain the essential standard of freedom of speech as enshrined in the United States Bill of Rights.  Any standard that deviates from this test in favor of criminalizing speech oughto be unacceptable in a nation built upon the essential principles of personal liberty.

The Supreme Court held in Texas v. Johnson 491 US 397 (1989) that freedom of speech is “a bedrock principle underlying the First Amendment is that Government may not prohibit the expression of an idea simply because society finds the idea itself offensive or disagreeable.” In RAV v. St. Paul 505 US 377 (1992), the Court held that even “hate speech” is protected under these terms of the First Amendment.  Finally, the Supreme Court held in Gregory v Chicago 394 US 111 (1969), “To let a policeman’s command become equivalent to a criminal statute comes dangerously near making our government one of men rather than of laws. There are ample ways to protect the domestic tranquility without subjecting First Amendment freedoms to such a clumsy and unwieldy weapon.”  To allow disagreement over words and meanings, to allow political dissention to become the standard of criminal activity violates the Constitution and the standards established by the Supreme Court, transmutes America away from a land whose foundation is settled in due process and rule of law to the “clumsy and unyielding weapon” of politicians, mob rule, and arbitrary standards that are antithetical to everything that embodies our Constitutional Republic.

Because President Donald Trump’s speech does not meet the two-prong test as established by the Supreme Court, it must be concluded that his speech has not risen to the level of criminal activity.  Since the standards of due process lead us to conclude that no crime was committed, the House Impeachment accusation is unlawful as there was no violation of a “high crime or misdemeanor.”  Finally, because the criminal elements of inciting are not met, President Trump cannot, under the law and the Constitution, be convicted by the Senate at trial.

A New York Bill to Imprison and Force Vaccinate Without Due Process is Up For Vote

A New York Bill to Imprison and Force Vaccinate Without Due Process is Up For Vote

By KrisAnne Hall, JD

On January 6 New York Assemblymen will be asked to vote on a bill that will authorize the Governor and/or health officials to seize custody of New Yorkers, imprison, and force vaccinate them without due process.  This bill is not only a threat to the Constitution of New York, the people of New York, but also everyone in America if you consider the way certain legislation can spread throughout America in the age “crisis.”  We must stay vigilant, not only of our own legislation, but also of that which could impact other States.

The bill, introduced by Assemblyman Nick Perry (District 58) is titled A-416 “An Act To Amend the public health law, in relation to removal of cases, contacts, and carriers of communicable diseases who are potentially dangerous to the public health.”  This legislation is not only dehumanizing by referring the people of New York as “contacts or carriers” it violates multiple sections of the New York Constitution and robs New Yorkers of their fundamental, inherent rights. 

If passed this legislation will place in the hands of the Governor, or his designated agent, the full and autonomous authority to “order” the “removal” and “detention” of every person the Governor or his “delegee” determines “may pose” a “significant and imminent threat to public health.”  The bill refers to these people as a “carrier” or “contact” of COVID-19.  Once some health department worker thinks a New Yorker is a carrier or contact to a carrier, that person will be seized and held without hearing, trial, due process, or bond for a period of time to be determined by the health department. 

A-416 does graciously establish that any person once detained “shall not continue to be detained once the health department determines” that person is “no longer is or will become contagious.”  What is the standard for that completely arbitrary determination by the health department you might ask?  The legislation leaves that entirely to the discretion of agent of the health department and their personal “due diligence.”  Only if and when the person detained formally “requests” to be heard will the health department be required to grant the “opportunity” to be heard…within 3 – 5 days.  To give some real due process perspective, if a New Yorker is arrested and accused of murder they are guaranteed, automatically without asking, a hearing within 24 hours.  If a New Yorker is picked up on the whim of some health department worker, they will have to wait at least 3 days to have a hearing — but only after a hearing is formally requested, from your detention cell, in a yet to be determined State designated facility. 

In short:

1. A-416 removes every New Yorker’s Right to due process before forcing them into the custody of health officials.  New Yorkers will not be given their right to a trial as required by Article I sec 1 and Article VI Sec 18a of the New York Constitution. 

2. A-416 arbitrarily reduces the well established standard of strict scrutiny required for the infringement of these fundamental rights to the lesser standard of “clear and convincing evidence” which will be determined solely by the Governor or some worker in the NY Health Department which violates New York’s constitutional principle of separation of powers.

3. A-416 is a bold violation of Article 1 sec 5 and Article 1 sec 12 of the New York Constitution as it potentially deprives every New Yorker of their inherent Rights to due process related to a search and seizure of their property and their body.

These are just a few, but very serious violations that will result if A-416 is passed.  New Yorkers cannot allow that to happen. Everyone in New York needs to contact their Senator and Assemblyman and DEMAND they vote no on A-416.  Everyone in America needs to contact their State and demand that such legislation never be drafted.

**NOTE:  Here is a sample script created by Liberty First Legal, INC. for every New Yorker to use if they want to contact their representatives and demand they vote NO!

Dear Assemblyman (insert name)

I am writing as a citizen of the State of New York and your constituent asking you to VOTE NO on A-416.

On January 6 you will be asked to vote on Assembly Bill A-416 to amend the authority of the Governor in health emergencies.  This bill will authorize the Governor and health officials to seize New Yorkers and force-vaccinate them without due process.

A-416 cannot be supported as it violates several provisions of the New York Constitution. 

1. A-416 removes every New Yorker’s Right to due process before forcing them into the custody of health officials.  New Yorkers will not be given their right to a trial as required by Article I sec 1 and Article VI Sec 18a of the New York Constitution. 

2. This bill arbitrarily reduces the well-established standard of strict scrutiny required for the infringement of these fundamental rights to the lesser standard of “clear and convincing evidence” which will be determined solely by the Governor or some executive bureaucrat in violation of the essential principle of separation of powers.

3. A-416 is a bold violation of Article 1 sec 5 and Article 1 sec 12 of the New York Constitution as it potentially deprives every New Yorker of their inherent Rights to due process before a search and seizure of their property and their body.

These are just a few, but very serious violations that will result if A-416 is passed.  We cannot allow that to happen. In defense of the rights of every New Yorker, I am strongly requesting you VOTE NO.  Thank you for your time and service.

Sincerely,

The Unseen Consequences of Any COVID “Relief” Bill

The Unseen Consequences of Any COVID “Relief” Bill

By KrisAnne Hall, JD 

Every State Constitution recognizes that “All political power is derived from the people.”   However, when our House and Senate sends money to Governors and local government leaders who issue orders resulting in the unconstitutional & catastrophic shutdown of our businesses and economies, the power of the people is supplanted by an overreaching ever growing federal government.  This unchecked perfect storm of power inevitably creates governments that become like some veracious and villainess vampire operating with an insatiable and rapacious appetite devouring the substances of our future. 

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed…”  Declaration of Independence, 1776

When the people hold the proper power they can exert control over their State & Local government by refusing to support legislation, funding, and elections.  Our State and local offices were created to be a servant of the people and a security to their individual rights.  It is the control and influence of the people that confines those in office to that intended limited authority.  Yet with every dollar Congress gives to our Governors & Locals, they are incentivized to become the very Monarchs and Robber Barons our founders vowed to banish from America.  Here is the unseen yet inevitable consequence of any and all federal COVID relief money: State and local tyrants are actually encouraged to keep our economies shutdown and regardless of how much money is distributed to the States or to the people directly, the power of the people is undermined and eventually completely eliminated.

We must resist the temptation to seek this handout that will take more than it will give.  The only true and long-lasting solution to the problems created by the COVID shutdowns is to OPEN our businesses, get our lives back in order, and restore property rights and personal prosperity.  It is not cliché, it is truth: Every business is essential.  Those in powerful places of government should never be allowed to define what is “essential” thus becoming the creators of winners and losers in our economic system.  

So the question becomes, as it originally was, do YOU choose to be free? It must begin with an individual choice and a personal resolve. WE must choose, as INDIVIDUALS, to take a stand against this debauchery under the guise of government.  With all the chatter about accountability in government, we must accept the responsibility that WE are the only true accountability to government that exists.  We must choose to do the difficult thing and never re-elect those, who by vote or decree, destroy our future by plundering our present. 

WE must choose, as INDIVIDUALS, to refuse to comply with the arbitrary theft of our businesses, homes, livelihoods, and lives in the name of a pretended government with a manufactured purpose.  WE must choose, as INDIVIDUALS, to do what is right by our neighbors, our honor, and our future- regardless of the difficulties that may rise before us.  

“I have my fears. Yet, notwithstanding the complicated difficulties that rise before us, there is no receding…May nothing ever check that glorious spirit of freedom which inspires the patriot in the cabinet, and the hero in the field, with courage to maintain their righteous cause, and to endeavor to transmit the claim to posterity…” Mercy Otis Warren to John Adams, 1774

Without the courage and perseverance of the individual there is no group, no community, no body that will form in defense of the Constitution, the Rights of the People, and the future of Liberty in America.  United as a people, as we once were in America, is the only formula for a future of prosperity and freedom. But that unity cannot be forged in the sands of political party or personality. It must be secured in the bedrock of Liberty- a firm foundation that will withstand the winds and waves of avarice and greed.  Without UNITY in the purpose of Liberty we will be overtaken like the lame prey in the path of a swift predator. Our future will be left orphaned to the hands of those who hate them so much they would devour them today if it we’re not more advantageous to keep them alive and captive for their succeeding profit.

Here are our choices- 

Do we choose freedom for our children or comfort for ourselves?  Do we choose true Liberty in life and business for our posterity or the phantom of safety & security for ourselves?  The foundation of America was built upon these choices and the future of America depends upon us choosing correctly.

Thomas Paine wrote in 1776, “a generous parent should have said, ‘If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace;’ and this single reflection, well applied, is sufficient to awaken every man to duty.”

Choose you this day. Choose wisely. Which will it be?  Your toilet paper today or your children & grandchildren’s freedom tomorrow?

The solutions are within our reach.  They are powerful and they are peaceful.  But every day we refuse to employ them, we ensure a future who will not have those options.  We will force our future to purchase back a Liberty we were supposed to give them.  

We have created a documentary to help people understand these solutions.  Please go to NonCompliantMovie.com to watch the Trailer and sign up for notification for the release date.

Who Will Be President January 2021

Who Will Be President January 2021
By KrisAnne Hall, JD
  • No President has ever been elected in November.
  • The Popular Vote does not elect a President, the vote of the Electoral College elects a President.
  • The date to count the Electoral College vote is set by law as January 6 and cannot be delayed without passing a new law.
  • It is legally and constitutionally impermissible to have a delay in announcing the winner in the Presidential race.
  • Nancy Pelosi cannot legally or constitutionally be “acting” President due to a delay caused by counting votes.

Fake News Alert!  It is a deliberate false narrative that the Speaker of the House would be appointed as acting president if the popular votes are not all counted by Jan. 20, 2021.  This narrative is derived from a false conflating of the Twentieth and Twenty Fifth Amendments.  The fact checkers ought to be telling Americans that by law, there is no way a delay in counting the popular vote can create a delay in electing the president and no way Nancy Pelosi can legally be appointed as “acting” president until a popular vote count dispute is resolved.

The false narrative that invokes the Twenty Fifth Amendment’s “line of succession” ignores the language that indicates that the line of succession applies to vacancies in the presidency from the president’s death, disability, resignation or removal from office; it does not apply to a delay in counting popular votes nor from a normal expiration of a term of office.

The first thing that an honest fact checker would point out is that no president has ever been elected in November as a result of a popular vote count.  As a matter of law, US presidents are elected on January 6 of every year (unless this date is changed prior to January 6 by passing of law), when the Senate President counts the electoral votes not the popular vote (3 U.S.C. §15).  Popular vote is not used to directly elect a President, therefore having an accurate and complete popular vote count is not a factor in delaying the January election.

The next thing your fact checker would have to tell you is that the deadline for counting elector votes is set by law, therefore a delay is not legally permissible.  On the contrary, federal laws were established to avoid a repetition of the extraordinary delay incident to the electoral vote controversy surrounding the 1876 presidential election.[1] 

Here is how it works according to the Constitution and according to the law:

After the electors have voted in each state, they make and sign six certificates, seal those certificates, and certify that these are all of the votes for President and Vice President.  Those certificates are then sent to the President of the Senate, and the Secretary of State of their State.

Should there be delays or failures of state electors to submit electoral votes to Congress, there is no need to wonder, create, or invent a procedure, there is established precedent that guides us.  Federal law establishes that if no certificates of votes or lists have been received by the President of the Senate or the Archivist from electors by the fourth Wednesday in December, then the President of the Senate is directed by law to request the State’s Secretary of State to immediately forward the certificates (3 U.S.C. §§12,13).[2]  The States whose electoral votes are missing are sent a collection notice from the Senate President warning that their electoral votes are due immediately. The process, along with specific deadlines for counting electoral votes submitted and disregarding electoral votes not submitted, is well established by historical precedent, federal law, and the Constitution. 

Every fact checker should know the date for counting the electoral votes is fixed by law as January 6 following each presidential election unless the date is changed by law (3 U.S.C. §15). The votes that are submitted in compliance with the deadline are counted.  The Votes that are not submitted in compliance with the deadline are not counted.  The Twelfth Amendment requires only a simple majority of electoral votes to elect a Presidential.  Precedent establishes what happens if some electors’ votes are not received in compliance with the deadline and are not counted.  For example, in 1865 only two of the three Nevada electors cast their electoral votes and only two Nevada votes were counted and included in the “whole number of electoral votes” to elect the president.  Similar instances of votes “not given” by electors that were not included in the “whole number” of electors reported, occurred in 1809, 1813, and 1817.[3]

Additionally, pursuant to congressional act, a State’s elector’s certificate of vote can be rejected if both Houses of Congress vote to accept the objection. This means the votes from the electors in question are not counted. In 1873 both Houses decided not to count the electoral votes from Arkansas and Louisiana.[4]  In 1864, all of the votes from Louisiana and Tennessee were rejected, and in 1872, all of the votes from Arkansas and Louisiana plus three of the eleven electoral votes from Georgia were rejected.[5]

The drafters of our Constitution were concerned that a delay in counting the vote could result in a quiet, non-violent political coup by one party or one or more states, where one or more disgruntled States would hold the entire election hostage.   The framers of the Constitution even warned that the President of the Senate or Speaker of the House should never be given the powers of the presidency because they are elected members of one political party and are therefore partisan. Representatives Morris and Madison warned that in order to pass their party’s political agenda those in power in the Congress could affect a political coup by indefinitely delaying the legitimate election of a president.[6]  The system they established for electing the president is clearly established through the Constitution, Amendments, historical precedent, and Congressional law to prevent any delay and prevent that sort of political coup. 

The facts presented in this article are in a Congressional Summary Report which is available to Congress, the President and the Supreme Court. Now you know what your member of Congress should already know and what the talking heads in the media don’t know or are deliberately falsifying to create uncertainty, destroy trust in our elections and foment chaos aimed at the overthrow of our Constitutional government.  These facts cannot be denied.  Know these facts. Demand they be followed. Expect them to be followed.
