You may have heard that Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger refuses to testify under oath about the 2020 election. And that should come as no surprise to anyone since he cannot hide behind his position once he takes the oath to tell the truth. We already know that he intentionally lied about the election to President Trump and then tried to frame him with a doctored transcript that was sent to the WaPo.
After the bogus transcript was proven to be dishonest and with a made up quote to make Trump look bad, the WaPo to their credit did something unusual. They outed the person who gave them the forged transcript. He was identified as Jordan Fuchs as their anonymous source for the garbage hit piece. For those of you who didn’t know it, she is Brad Raffensperger’s assistant Secretary of State. You will begin to see a disturbing pattern here.
The Post made this comment on retracting the fabrication coming from the office of the Secretary of State:
We corrected the story and published a separate news story last week — at the top of our site and on the front page — after we learned that our source had not been precise in relaying then President Trump’s words. We are not retracting our January story because it conveyed the substance of Trump’s attempt to influence the work of Georgia’s elections investigators.
The SoS’s office destroyed the original recording to hide the fact that the transcript was a fake, but unfortunately for them the tape was recovered and the truth came out. Fuchs and the other Democrats masquerading as Republicans were trying to damage Trump as much as they could before Nancy Pelosi’s political hit job leading to a second impeachment against President Trump.
From the Washington Post:
VISIT OUR YOUTUBE CHANNELCorrection: Two months after publication of this story, the Georgia secretary of state released an audio recording of President Donald Trump’s December phone call with the state’s top elections investigator. The recording revealed that The Post misquoted Trump’s comments on the call, based on information provided by a source. Trump did not tell the investigator to “find the fraud” or say she would be “a national hero” if she did so. Instead, Trump urged the investigator to scrutinize ballots in Fulton County, Ga., asserting she would find “dishonesty” there. He also told her that she had “the most important job in the country right now.” A story about the recording can be found here. The headline and text of this story have been corrected to remove quotes misattributed to Trump.
That was NOT the only lie made by Brad Raffensperger related to that infamous phone call.
Catherine Engelbrecht and True the Vote published their report titled “The Aftermath” in August on the organization’s broader work in Georgia before, during, and after the 2020 presidential election.
The Aftermath report was published on August 21, 2023.
The Aftermath focused on the impact the dirty voter rolls had on the 2020 Georgia presidential election. Following the report, Democrat hitman Marc Elias filed a lawsuit against True the Vote for their efforts to clean up the voter rolls in Georgia. The Biden DOJ recently joined the Elias case against True the Vote.
The Aftermath report confirmed that Brad Raffensperger lied to President Trump about the 2020 election in Georgia in that infamous phone call.
Raffensperger told President Trump that the election in Georgia was clean when he knew, in fact, that this was not the case.
Catherine Engelbrecht proved this later when she released a legal affidavit on her meeting with Raffensperger in early December 2020.
Catherine noted that she told Raffensperger in December 2020 that there were 67,284 votes cast that should likely not have been counted because the voters’ registrations were ineligible based on permanent change of residency.
But Brad Raffensperger lied to President Trump about fraudulent voter registrations on that Jan. 2nd call. Raffensperger said everything was fine when he knew otherwise!
From Catherine’s affidavit:
On that call, President Trump asked about inaccurate voter records. Both Secretary Raffensperger and General Counsel Ryan Germany stated that they had fully evaluated the various claims of election irregularities and said without qualification there was no evidence to support them, including no problems with the voting records. This statement was knowingly false. Both men were well-aware of that falsity at the time.
Sec of State Brad Raffensperger knew Georgia’s voter rolls had not been cleaned in approx two years. This would naturally cause skyrocketing errors of over 20% ineligible records across the state, based on residency alone.
In mid-December 2020, well after the General Election had been certified by Raffensperger, and in advance of True the Vote’s preparation of 364,000 voter record challenges based on ineligible residency, Catherine Engelbrecht met with Raffensperger to discuss the challenges citizens would soon be filing. His comment? ‘That seems about right. The GOP should have been doing this all along.” He knew the rolls were inaccurate. What was his excuse for not maintaining them? In 2019, Stacey Abrams and Fair Fight filed a lawsuit against the state to prevent voter roll maintenance, arguing that roll cleaning was erroneous and racially biased. The State went on to win the lawsuit in 2021, but during the period from 2019 to 2021 Raffensperger acquiesced to Abrams.
