American citizens who in recent years raised questions about possible voter fraud in the 2020 election were censored, deplatformed, and stigmatized. The results of the 2024 election appear, however, to have vindicated such skeptics, at least in their understanding that there was something anomalous about the number of votes Joe Biden supposedly received. The official story regarding the 2020 election is that President Donald Trump received 74.2 million votes and Biden received 81.2 million votes — a combined total of over 155 million votes. According to Decision Desk HQ's latest count, Trump secured over 73.2 million votes in Tuesday's election and Kamala Harris received 68.6 million votes — a combined total of around 141.8 million, with some votes still left to be counted in states such as California. At the time of publication, CNN had the numbers at 72.8 million for Trump and 68.1 million for Harris. For some sense of historical context, in 2016, Trump secured 62.9 million votes and Hillary Clinton secured 65.8 million votes, and in 2012, former Utah Sen. Mitt Romney netted 60.9 million votes and President Barack Obama secured 65.9 million votes. Harris' performance, as measured by the popular vote, appears to be more or less in line with Clinton's and Obama's. Biden's supposed result, on the other hand, stands out like a sore thumb. 'Every f***ing time except 2020.' On Wednesday, Democrats and their allies in the liberal media started asking how they could have record turnout in the 2024 election yet still have Harris net tens of millions fewer voters than Biden did four years ago. By raising this question and in some cases suggesting that Trump must have cheated, Democrats unwittingly prompted renewed concerns among their counterparts about the legitimacy of the previous election. Zerohedge shared a graph on X comparing the popular vote results in the 2012, 2016, 2020, and 2024 elections, writing, "Sorry to beat a dead horse, but can we go back to what happened here?" "Yes, let's do go back. American voters want and deserve to know precisely where 81 million 'votes' appeared from and how all the official 2020 evidence collected via courts and states has never been properly analyzed, summarized and presented," wrote Rasmussen Reports. "It's a huge public topic." BlazeTV contributor T.J. Moe responded, "There is not a single honest person in America, who believes Joe Biden get [sic] 81 million votes. Last night made it clear 2020 was stolen. History will acknowledge this." Former Republican National Committee spokeswoman Madison Gesiotto Gilbert asked, "Where'd all the Democrats go?" The glaring discrepancy also caught the eye of last-minute Trump supporter Joe Rogan, who noted on his show after Trump's latest landslide victory, "It's so crazy. You look at it and you go, 'Is this real?'" Rogan noted that the consensus in the lead-up to the 2024 election was that it was "one of the most consequential elections ever," such that there was some expectation that voters would turn out for Harris in similar numbers as they supposedly had for Biden in 2020. "Look at the difference in how many people voted for Biden in 2020. It's unprecedented. It's way higher than any other time," said Rogan. "This is what's crazy: They're consistent. Look, they're all like 60 — look at where the number is. It's all like 65 million. ... Every f***ing time except 2020, and in 2020 it goes way the f*** up." Nathan Hughes of Arkansas, one of the Jan. 6 protesters prosecuted by the Biden-Harris Department of Justice, noted, "Obama got 69M votes. Kamala got 68M votes. But they want us to believe Joe Biden somehow got 81M votes and won, despite losing nearly every bellweather county? They raided our homes and sent us to jail for asking where those extra 13M votes came from." Hughes speculated, "They couldn't manufacture and pump them into the system like they did during Covid." When pressed about what might have changed, YouTuber David Freiheit, known under his online pseudonym "Viva Frei," similarly suggested that this time around, they didn't have limitless ballots like they did in 2020. In 2020 they mailed out ballots to everyone. Changed the rules for indefinite confinement, drop boxes, never did signature matches in Georgia, etc. It was designed to facilitate ballot harvesting so they could just come up with the ballots to meet whatever number was required to win the election. Plus they had the cover of Twitter which was not yet controlled by Elon. And the courts never stepped in like they did this time around. Some conservatives are hopeful that with a Republican trifecta at the federal level, there will soon be answers and accountability. "This entire phony thing is getting swept out," the newly liberated Steve Bannon said ahead of Trump's victory speech Wednesday morning. "Biden's getting swept out. Kamala Harris is getting swept out. MSNBC is getting swept out. The Justice Department is getting swept out. The FBI's getting swept out. You people suck, OK? And now you're going to pay the price for trying to destroy this country." Bannon, who has long complained about alleged election shenanigans in 2020, added, "[Trump] may be empathetic. He may have a kind heart. He may be a good man. But we're not. And you deserve ... not retribution, justice." The liberal media rushed to reassure the public the 2020 election was legitimate. The Associated Press — which has done a great deal in recent months to undermine its credibility, particularly with false reports about Israel's defensive war against Hamas, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), and Project 2025 — published a "fact-check" Wednesday titled, "FACT FOCUS: A multimillion vote gap between 2020 and 2024 fuels false election narratives." The AP article stated that "claims of widespread fraud in 2020 have been debunked countless times" and suggested that the final count might greatly narrow the delta between Biden's unprecedented result and Harris' more conventional result. Once the remainder of the votes are counted and finalized, Americans will have a better sense of exactly how anomalous the 2020 election really was. Like Blaze News?

Glenn Beck had a powerful message for Democratic voters in the wake of Donald Trump's landslide victory against Vice President Kamala Harris.He shared his post-election thoughts on his radio show and in a post on X on Thursday.'Let us rule ourselves again.'Beck urged Democrats to reject the legacy media's narratives about Trump's supporters and seek to understand why more than half of Americans voted for him to lead the country. In a post on X, Beck wrote, "If you voted for Kamala Harris and can't understand how over half the country supports Donald Trump, please hear this. We aren't who the legacy media says we are." He assured Harris' supporters that conservatives are not aiming to "end 'democracy'" and "abandon science" despite what those in the legacy media and Democratic Party have repeatedly claimed."We want to return power to the PEOPLE from the administrative state," Beck said. "We don't want a president who will control our lives and declare what we must believe, eat, drive, and teach our children. We want one who will DEREGULATE and let us live without the government constantly breathing down our necks.""We support ACTUAL science, grounded in common sense and reason," he added.Beck explained that conservatives are aware that "racism exists" but noted that "we don't believe people are BORN racist and that the only way to defeat racism is with more racism.""We believe in the American Spirit - that WE determine our own destinies, no matter race, religion, or class," he continued. "Our Founders knew that government left unchecked would accumulate power at the expense of the individual. That's the road we've been on for over 100 years, since the early Progressives convinced America that man cannot rule himself, that we need overseers, elites, and 'experts' to tell us what to do."During his radio broadcast, Beck elaborated on how the American spirit inspires individuals to achieve dreams and innovations deemed impossible by others."I'll fight for your right to be whoever it is you think you are," Beck declared. "I'll fight for your right to say what you believe, but I'm also going to fight for everybody else's right, including mine, to say you're wrong."Beck told Harris' supporters that the majority of Americans, himself included, voted for Trump because he "promised to empower the people and restrict the government, to let us rule ourselves again.""That's what made America exceptional. That's what we want to make 'Great Again,'" Beck concluded.Like Blaze News? Bypass the censors, sign up for our newsletters, and get stories like this direct to your inbox. Sign up here!

In a media briefing Thursday after announcing a reduction in interest rates, the chairman of the Federal Reserve said he would not resign if asked by President-elect Donald Trump.Chairman Jerome Powell was asked by a reporter about the possibility of Trump asking him to resign after the stunning results of the election Tuesday. 'Trump had accused Powell of hurting the economy by raising interest rates.'"No," Powell replied simply. "Do you think that legally you're not required to leave?" asked the reporter. "No," he responded. When asked whether he believed the president had the power to force him to resign, he responded, "Not permitted under law." Powell was appointed to Fed chair in 2018 by Trump but was criticized by the president for what he saw as poor job performance. In 2019, Powell was similarly asked if he would step down from the position if Trump asked him to resign, and he had the same answer at that time. Trump had accused Powell of hurting the economy by raising interest rates at the time, but Powell argued that higher rates were necessary in order to avoid inflation. Powell had also announced a quarter of a point reduction in reserve interest rates on Thursday after the Federal Reserve had previously cut rates by half of a percent in September. After losing the election in 2020, Trump has since said that he wants the presidency to have more of a say in setting interest rates, despite economists' warnings that the Federal Reserve was created to be independent from the presidency to avoid political meddling in the economy. “I don’t think I should be allowed to order it, but I think I have the right to put in comments as to whether the interest rates should go up or down,” said Trump to Bloomberg News in October. “The independence of the Fed is something that not just economists, or investors, but citizens should place a high value on,” said economist Carl Tannenbaum to the Associated Press in August. Powell went on to say Thursday that the election would have no effect on the decisions made at the Federal Reserve. “In the near term, the election will have no effects on our policy decisions,” he said.

President Donald Trump won the 2024 election in a landslide victory — and after a period of silence, Kamala Harris has given her concession speech. Harris gave her speech at Howard University, which is her alma mater. “It was an interesting chain of events because last night, very quiet, didn’t say a word. They had this crowd waiting for her and they actually had one of her campaign staffers who had to come up to the mic and say, ‘She’s not– go home,’” Sara Gonzales of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered” comments. “Very strange that she wouldn’t even speak, and it makes you wonder what was going on there,” she adds. Harris reportedly did end up calling Donald Trump by phone to concede and had a “pleasant conversation” with the president-elect. However, when she gave her concession speech to the public, she was 20 minutes late. “I know folks are feeling and experiencing a range of emotions right now, I get it, but we must accept the results of this election,” Harris began, noting that she would “help him and his team with their transition” and “we will engage in a peaceful transfer of power.” Gonzales finds the whole thing quite “interesting.” “All of a sudden she’s like, ‘No, I mean, he won fair and square and we need to acknowledge that.’ Well, you didn’t acknowledge it last night. So, were you too drunk or were you waiting to find out if you guys could figure out how you could find the votes?” Gonzales says. “It’s very strange to hear her ... intentionally go along to get along. ‘It’s going to be peaceful, we’re going to do this the nice way,’” she continues. “Why would you want a peaceful transfer of power with literally Hitler?” Steve Deace of “The Steve Deace Show” chimes in, adding, “why would you concede it all to fascism?” “I think that ultimately, they either believe these talking point, which is devastating in it’s own right, or they don’t, but they are so craving for power that they will cynically, nihilistically inject that venom and poison into our cultural lexicon and pit us against one another,” he adds.
